Immediately after kicking Wu Fang away, Gu Yu pressed his hand against Xu Weilai’s wound to stop the blood from flowing out. He did not dare to move her needlessly. He crouched down at the same spot, allowing her to lean into his arms.
As blood continued to flow out, the color gradually drained from Xu Weilai’s face. Her complexion was white as paper, and her eyes began to lose their focus as her eyelids slowly drooped.
“Xu Weilai, look at me!” Gu Yu’s voice was low and hoarse, and no longer held its usual impassiveness. He spoke frantically, afraid that she could not hear him.
Xu Weilai seemed to hear his voice, but it took much effort for her to move her eyes. When she opened them, her eyes appeared glazed before she closed her eyelids again.
Gu Yu’s voice rang out once again, “Xu Weilai, don’t fall asleep! You’re forbidden from sleeping! Do you hear me?”
At the last question, fear was apparent in his tone, and his voice had become deepened considerably.
Xu Weilai’s eyelid twitched slightly before she finally lifted them and looked at him. Her brows knitted tightly together in grief. Why was he being so stern with her when she was already so severely injured? why wasn’t he allowing her to rest?
“Xu Weilai, just hang on a little longer. Stay with me, please…”
When Xiao Chun regained her sense, she ran over clumsily and knelt by Xu Weilai’s side. Her eyes reddened at the sight of Xu Weilai lying limply on the floor. She didn’t dare to move her, and called out hoarsely, “Little Weilai, hold on! You’ll be fine! Don’t be scared! Don’t be scared…”
After the ambulance arrived, the paramedics’ first action was to urgently staunch the bleeding. Once they succeeded in stopping it, they carefully lifted Xu Weilai onto the stretcher and wheeled her into the ambulance. Gu Yu followed her in.
Inside the hospital…
Gu Yu held Xu Weilai’s hand the entire time. When she was about to be wheeled into the operating theater, he tightened his grip on her hand and said gravely, “Xu Weilai, you’re not allowed to die. You’re absolutely forbidden from dying!”
The woman was hovering on the brink of consciousness. Although she looked at him, she didn’t seem to see him.
The very next second, Xu Weilai was wheeled away, and her hand was slowly pulled out of his grasp. The doors of the operating theater closed in Gu Yu’s face, and the red light above the entrance came on.
He refused to move from that spot. His mind was filled with the image of Xu Weilai’s body stained with her blood…
Moments ago, when Xu Weilai’s hand had slowly left his grasp, it felt as if she were disappearing from his life. He clenched his fists so tightly that the veins on the back of his hand began to bulge.
He believed that if he clenched his fists tightly enough, Xu Weilai wouldn’t leave him…
Approximately 15 minutes later, Assistant Lin and Xiao Chun rushed over to find Gu Yu seated by the bench along the wall of the corridor with an emotionless expression on his handsome face. Even the look in his eyes seemed cold. Even so, Assistant Lin could still see that his body was trembling imperceptibly.
Mr. Gu was truly afraid…
Despite having been by his side for so many years, he had yet to ever see Gu Yu display emotions like fear. Nothing had ever been able to faze him, and he had always been able to deal with any problem calmly and rationally.
Assistant Lin sometimes wondered if he would ever get to witness what Mr. Gu was like when he was afraid.
Now, he had found his answer…
As it turned out, Gu Yu wasn’t completely fearless. When his loved one was in the face of danger, he likewise felt afraid, panicked… and even fragile.
Xu Weilai had to emerge from this safe and sound! If anything happened to her, he didn’t dare to imagine how Mr. Gu would interact!
