Chapter 71: Opening the Scar

Silence is an excellent breeding ground for thoughts. As long as you calm down, different emotions can arise all of a sudden.

In an uncertain relationship, silence allows anxiety to grow, but also provides an opportunity for courage to grow.

Huang Chiyao and Wen Guzhi hugged each other quietly for a long time, until their thoughts had taken root and sprouted, and then they let go of each other.

"Are you ok?"

"I...remembered something."

Wen Guzhi stopped talking after he finished this sentence. Perhaps he fainted due to the shock, and he had just woken up from a nightmare. Different memories were intertwined and complicated. I don't know if he was hesitating whether to speak or thinking about how to speak.

Huang Chiyao did not ask any further questions, but just stared at Wen Guzhi quietly, his eyes involuntarily drifting to his lips.

Wen Guzhi's lower lip was bitten too hard by him. The originally beautiful lip color was left with blood scabs, just like the petals of a phoenix being branded with rust marks, which was a pity and pitiful. Huang Chiyao looked at it and couldn't help but bend his index finger to stretch it towards his lower lip. When he touched the dry and hard scab, he gently pressed down.

"Does it hurt?"

Wen Guzhi was a little stunned by Huang Chiyao's sudden action. Although she didn't apply much force, it brought a slight sting. And along with the pain, there was also the temperature of Huang Chiyao.

Hot and soft.

He let Huang Chi shake the finger that was pressed against his lips and answered softly.

"It hurts a little."

"It hurts." Huang Chiyao's index finger rubbed Wen Guzhi's lips back and forth, then let go. "You don't know how to take good care of yourself."

Wen Gu didn't know what happened to Huang Chiyao today. It was as if she had taken away the initiative and he was completely dominated by her.

Although he had been saved by Huang Chiyao twice before, he had never seen her be so serious to him.

So…aggressive.

Although he was somewhat uncomfortable with the fluttering of the yellow wings, he was actually somewhat delighted.

"Have some water first." Huang Chi poured a glass of water and handed it to Wen Guzhi. After he took a few sips, he put the glass down and stood up. "I'll go out and call your family in."

"Wait a minute!" Wen Guzhi hurriedly called her, "I have something to tell you first."

Huang Chiyao paused, returned to Wen Guzhi's bedside and sat down, looking at him intently.

Wen Guzhi thought for a moment, and finally told Huang Chiyao what happened on his tenth birthday.

When Wen Guzhi was halfway through his story and couldn't continue smoothly because the scene was too vivid in his mind, and he even began to tremble, Huang Chiyao would hold his hand and say to him: "Look at me. Don't think about the scene at that time, Guzhi. I am the one next to you now. It's safe here."

For some reason, Huang Chiyao's words could always easily transfer power to him.

Wen Guzhi regulated his breathing and, with the strength transmitted from her, continued to try to finish the story in a normal tone. He even told Huang Chiyao everything that his psychiatrist didn't know.

"After that day, I never saw my father and sister again. I also asked my mother, but her answer was always that she didn't know."

"I have already gotten used to the fact that my father is not around. Even if I grow up and have the ability to investigate their whereabouts, I have never thought of taking the initiative to check. Because I don't dare."

"I dare not give myself hope, I am afraid that what I will get in the end is disappointment, or even despair."

"The agreement my mother showed me last night was a lie, but it was also a tiny hope for me. I finally got what I wanted and met my father, but the facts tell me that he is still so ruthless, so ruthless that he would rather give me all the shares than show up on my birthday."

"Why? Why on earth?"

"I'm clearly trying very hard to be a good child and cater to my father's preferences. I've clearly done nothing wrong, but why does he hate me so much? Is it because he hates my mother? So he hates me as well? Is my birth and my existence a mistake?"

The more Wen Guzhi spoke, the more lost he became. It seemed that he had fallen back into the same emotions as before he woke up, and he allowed the black vines to climb up his body.

Before Wen Guzhi allowed the vines to completely cover him, Huang Chiyao held his face in his hands, trying to bring him back to reality.

"It's not your fault, so you know."

She looked straight into Wen Guzhi's eyes.

"Don't let them pull you back into the abyss you once were."

"They?" Wen Guzhi's eyes were still a little dazed. "Who are they?"

Huang Chiyao paused for breath. She knew that what she was about to say might be cruel, but she still chose to say it to Wen Guzhi.

If the wound is not drained, it will never heal.

It may even cost you your life.

She moved her thumb slightly down and placed it on Wen Guzhi's lips, slowly pressing down from shallow to deep, making him feel the real pain.

"You actually already have the answer in your heart. Maybe that's the person you've always admired. But what you need to do is to confront and confirm your answer. Even though it may be painful for you."

"But it is precisely because of the pain that you know you are awake."

"You won't be trapped anymore."

……

Wen Guzhi was silent for a long time before he spoke.

"You were the one who woke me up, you were the one who pulled me up, right?"

Huang Chiyao loosened her hand and placed it on Wen Guzhi's chest over his heart.

"I've been calling you for a long time."

She smiled. "I'm glad you responded."

After that, looking at Wen Guzhi's stunned expression, she stood up again and said, "I have to call the doctor and your family in. They are all very worried about you."

"So did your mother. She stayed with you all night."

Before opening the door of the ward, Huang Chiyao stopped, turned around and called Wen Guzhi.

"Review the past to know more."

Wen Guzhi had been looking at her.

"Get well soon. When you recover, I have something very important to tell you."

"You must listen carefully and answer me seriously."

When the door opened and Huang Chiyao walked out, Su Yunqing, Su Jin and others who had been guarding outside the door were stunned at first.

"He's awake, let's go in and check on him."

Everyone rushed into the ward.

"Old acquaintance!"

"Brother! You finally woke up!"

Huang Chiyao looked back across the crowd, only to see that Wen Guzhi's eyes seemed to have never left her.

He looked at her and his lips moved slightly. Although she couldn't hear clearly what he was saying, Huang Chiyao could still see the shape of his mouth.

Wen Guzhi only said one word.

"it is good."
