Chapter 37
Love Rivals Meet, Seething Jealousy Ensues
The nurse was so frightened by Huo Sicheng that she trembled.
Huo Sicheng had been trending all day today, so she had long recognized that the person in front of her was the president of Huo Corporation.
She admitted that Huo Sicheng was very handsome, so handsome that her eyes sparkled. However, he was disabled and she couldn’t touch him, so she could only admire him.
However, even if he was disabled, she could not afford to offend him.
“The patient is in critical condition…” She explained carefully, “The notice of critical condition is a necessary procedure. If the patient dies in our hospital, we…”
Ah Qing hurriedly covered the nurse’s mouth and said, “Young Master, the nurse didn’t mean anything else. The emergency room has to sign a critical condition notice. It’s just part of the process.”
The nurse’s words made Huo Sicheng feel a sense of fear he had never felt before.
He didn’t sign this critical condition notice, even if it was just a symbolic procedure.
Once he signed it, it would be as if Gu Qingcheng would die at any moment and leave him forever.
His beautiful slanted eyes were cold. “Tell the attending doctor that if anything happens to the patient, I’ll bury all of you with him!”
The nurse was so frightened that she hurriedly returned to the emergency room.
Huo Sicheng took out his phone and ordered, “All the best doctors and professors in Jiang City must be at the emergency room of the General Hospital 3 in ten minutes!”
Ah Qing was so terrified that he didn’t even dare to breathe loudly when he saw the furious Huo Sicheng.
Under Huo Sicheng’s orders, the best doctors that Jiang City had to offer gathered at General Hospital 3 in the middle of the night to save Gu Qingcheng.
A high fever could cause sudden death, and he would not allow Gu Qingcheng to die in front of him.
She could not die either!
Time passed, and Gu Qingcheng’s fever finally subsided. She was out of danger and was sent to a private ward.
Huo Sicheng stood by the bed, looking at Gu Qingcheng’s pale and thin face. He felt as if a knife had been stabbed into his heart.
Even though she was out of danger, his slender hands were still trembling.
He raised his trembling right hand and caressed her cheek tenderly.
“Silly girl, you’ve always cherished your life the most. You shouldn’t have been in the rain.” He stared at her longingly and said in a low and hoarse voice, “You’ve been holding on for so many years. When will you let go of yourself? When will you be able to sense my existence? Even if you give me a little love, I’ll be satisfied.”
Gu Qingcheng, who was unconscious, couldn’t respond to his questions, so all he got was silence.
He muttered softly, telling her about the burning love he had suppressed in his heart for her for many years.
Even though Gu Qingcheng didn’t respond to his confession, it was the only time he could open his heart and confess his feelings to her.
The next day, the sun shone through the window into the ward.
After a night of rain, the sky was blue and the air was fresh.
Chu Yu received Ah Qing’s call in the middle of the night last night and rushed to the hospital.
He looked at Huo Sicheng, who had stayed by Gu Qingcheng’s side the entire night. He sighed silently and walked in.
“President Huo, there’s something urgent that needs to be dealt with.”
He said it very carefully because he should not disturb President Huo at this time. However, it was an urgent matter, otherwise, he would never have come in.
Huo Sicheng didn’t say anything. His eyes and heart were filled with Gu Qingcheng.
It had been a night. She could not sleep anymore. It was time to wake up.
He would only feel at ease when he saw her wake up.
“President Huo, it’s urgent.” Chu Yu carefully said again, “Two minutes.”
Just then, the doctor entered Gu Qingcheng’s room to examine her.
Huo Sicheng held Gu Qingcheng’s slender hand tightly. It was only then that he realized that their fingers were interlocked.
He really didn’t want to let go of her and hold her hand like this for the rest of his life.
However, he was more worried about Gu Qingcheng’s health than holding her hand. In the end, he made way for her.
And he couldn’t let Chu Yu talk to Gu Qingcheng in front of her, lest he disturbed her, and she had to listen to Chu Yu’s report when she left the ward.
At that moment, Gu Qingcheng’s long eyelashes were trembling slightly. She seemed to be waking up, but she didn’t, because she was dreaming.
In her dream, she found herself standing in front of her mother’s grave, wearing a pink princess dress with short arms and legs. She looked like she was five years old.
Suddenly, a little boy in a black suit appeared in front of her.
She couldn’t see the boy’s face clearly. The only thing she could see was his almond-shaped eyes that were filled with sorrow and despair.
His eyes were very familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere before.
Then, she realized that she had reached out to hold the little boy’s hand. She opened her mouth as if she was saying something. The boy seemed to be moved by her, and his sad and dim eyes lit up.
“Little brother, my name is Gu Qingcheng. You have to protect me and remember my name. When we grow up, will you marry me?”
“Alright.” An incomparably firm promise.
Suddenly, the blurry scene in front of her changed to the scene before the car accident. Qin Jun and Gu Mei were standing in front of her and laughing loudly.
“Sister dear, Brother Jun has only loved me from the beginning to the end.” Gu Mei laughed wildly.
“Gu Qingcheng, go to hell!” Qin Jun placed the improvised explosive device in front of her.
“Sister dear, rest in peace. The Gu family will be mine.”
She didn’t want Huo Sicheng to die. She knew everything. She dragged her body and fell off the cliff with the bomb.
“Gu Qingcheng…” Huo Sicheng’s terrified voice rang out.
At that moment, Gu Qingcheng opened her eyes abruptly. The white ceiling greeted her eyes.
“Hiss…” She immediately sucked in a breath of cold air. Her head was in so much pain that it felt like it had exploded.
“Babe, my babe.” Qi Shaoze’s worried voice was heard.
Gu Qingcheng frowned and turned to look at the room.
Huo Sicheng’s terrified voice was still ringing in her ears, but he was not in the room. Only Qi Shaoze was walking in from the door.
She was surprised that she was in the ward.
She still remembered that she had gone to the cemetery to visit her mother yesterday. Then, it rained, and she did not want to leave her mother. After that, she thought about it but could not remember anything.
“Babe, I’m here. Where are you hurting?” Qi Shaoze rushed to the bed and placed his hand on Gu Qingcheng’s forehead. He said in a reproachful tone, “Babe, your head is so hot. Why are you looking at me with your big eyes? Why didn’t you tell me that you were sick?”
In the pavilion not far from the ward, Chu Yu and Qi Shaoze had a panoramic view of the scene. He could sense the cold and fierce aura that President Huo was emitting.
“President Huo, this is Qi Shaoze, the CEO of Star Dream Entertainment. He’s Madam’s classmate and good friend,” he said carefully.
Now it seemed that Qi Shaoze wasn’t just Gu Qingcheng’s good friend. The way they addressed each other was so suggestive that it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call them a couple.
He was speechless about Gu Qingcheng. She was married to President Huo, so she should have some basic morals.
In the end, not only did she have an ambiguous relationship with her ex, Qin Jun, but she also had an ambiguous relationship with Qi Shaoze.
To think that President Huo had stayed by her side for the entire night and only kept a promiscuous woman like her. He had raised this fish for nothing. President Huo had already raised it for someone else. He really felt sorry for him.
Even though Huo Sicheng didn’t want to hear them calling each other ‘babe,’ he couldn’t ignore Qi Shaoze’s loud voice.
He was burning with rage, especially when he saw Qi Shaoze touch Gu Qingcheng’s cheek. His gaze was enough to tear Qi Shaoze apart.
Damned woman.
She just let Qi Shaoze touch her!
The veins on his forehead bulged. He clenched his fists and walked toward the ward.
Seeing that Huo Sicheng was about to go to the ward to teach Gu Qingcheng a lesson, Chu Yu followed behind him with great support.
“President Huo, even if Madam is still sick, you can’t let her off just like that. You must make her recognize her identity and not be ambiguous with other men!” He recalled the incident at Royal Dance last time and reminded President Huo, “You can’t leave like last time. This time, don’t care about her feelings. You must punish her severely!”
