Pampering wife without restraint
Chapter 80 The headache came back
Gu Jingyu patted Yun Yishu's back gently, trying to calm her down.
His gaze slowly turned to Fu Haoting and Bai Chenxi beside him, his eyes full of gratitude.
"Thanks to your help this time, I will always remember this kindness."
When Bai Chenxi saw Gu Jingyu again, she felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy in her heart.
She smiled and waved her hand, saying lightly: "Don't be so polite. When a friend is in trouble, we should help him."
Yun Yishu raised her slightly pale eyes, with a hint of trembling in her voice.
"Xiao Xi, why...are you here?"
Bai Chenxi smiled and said, "Maybe this is fate? I always seem to appear at the critical moment when you are in trouble."
Gu Jingyu frowned slightly, his eyes full of concern: "Yi Shu, do you know each other?"
Yun Yishu's eyes were a little evasive and he lowered his head slightly.
She whispered, "Last time...it was in Yuecheng, it was about my family."
She didn't want to talk about it further and just passed it over lightly.
Bai Chenxi looked at the two of them and had some guesses in his mind.
Yun Yishu took a deep breath and said gratefully: "Thank you so much today. If it weren't for your help, I can't imagine how serious the consequences would be."
She turned her gaze to the silent Fu Haoting, her eyes full of curiosity: "Who is this?"
Bai Chenxi introduced softly: "He is my husband, Fu Haoting."
Fu Haoting nodded slightly as a greeting.
Bai Chenxi frowned in thought, his puzzled eyes fixed on Gu Jingyu's face, his voice filled with confusion.
"How did you offend the Zhou family?"
Gu Jingyu sighed heavily, "One of the Zhou family's buildings has maliciously withheld wages for many migrant workers. I really can't stand it. I'm going to court for them tomorrow. They threatened me before, but I didn't expect them to be so cruel and dare to kidnap Yi Shu as a bargaining chip to threaten me."
Upon hearing this, Bai Chenxi slowly turned his gaze to Fu Haoting, with a hint of inquiry in his voice.
"Is it the Zhou family of Zhou Zijun?"
Fu Haoting nodded. "As far as I know, the Zhou family has not had a good reputation in the business community in recent years. Their dirty tricks, especially the evil act of maliciously withholding workers' wages, have long been commonplace and notorious."
He turned to look at Gu Jingyu and said, "Just go to the court session without worry. I will handle the Zhou family's affairs properly."
After hearing this, Gu Jingyu and Yun Yishu were filled with gratitude.
"I will host a banquet tomorrow to thank you for your help." Gu Jingyu said sincerely.
Yun Yishu nodded in agreement and looked at Bai Chenxi with a smile: "Yes, let's have a good meal tomorrow."
The four reached a consensus and walked out of the abandoned factory side by side.
Bai Chenxi tilted his head slightly, his eyes penetrating through the dim light and falling on those listless thugs.
She opened her red lips slightly, "How to deal with them?"
Fu Haoting took a glance and said calmly: "Don't worry, I have notified the police and they will handle it properly."
The next day, Gu Jingyu easily won the case in court.
Under the unshakable pressure from the Fu family, the Zhou family had no choice but to submit and dared not to make things difficult for Gu Jingyu.
In order to quell the turmoil as quickly as possible, the Zhou family acted quickly and paid off the wages owed to the migrant workers.
Gu Jingyu booked an elegant private room at Shanggong Restaurant and prepared a thank-you banquet for Fu Haoting and Bai Chenxi.
As night fell and the stars shone brightly, the two arrived as promised.
Everyone sat around, the delicious food on the table gave off an enticing aroma, and their laughter and conversation intertwined into a harmonious melody.
Gu Jingyu looked at Bai Chenxi, and an indescribable sense of intimacy surged in his heart, as if he was pulled by an invisible emotional bond.
He put down the cutlery in his hands and began to slowly tell her about his life experiences over the years.
Bai Chenxi listened quietly, as if he could feel the ups and downs he had experienced, and ripples appeared in his heart.
During the meal, Gu Jingyu stood up and raised his glass.
"On behalf of the countless migrant workers who have worked hard, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to you. I will drink this first as a sign of respect."
Bai Chenxi smiled gently and raised his glass, "Cheers to our meeting."
Inside the private room, the four people laughed and talked cheerfully one after another. As they raised their glasses to drink together, their friendship and tacit understanding were sublimated in the clash of the glasses.
After dinner, Fu Haoting and Gu Jingyu went to the parking lot to pick up the car first, leaving Bai Chenxi and Yun Yishu walking side by side in the night.
Bai Chenxi asked softly, "Haven't you told him anything about the child yet?"
A hint of hesitation and helplessness flashed in Yun Yishu's eyes.
She sighed softly, her voice choked with sobs.
"I... I don't know how to tell him. Every time the words come to my lips, they feel like they weigh a thousand pounds."
She paused and continued, "Besides, I will be returning to Yuecheng soon."
"Go back to Yuecheng?" Bai Chenxi stopped in surprise and looked at Yun Yishu's slightly pale face.
"Didn't you come to Jing City in search of love? Why are you leaving suddenly?"
Yun Yishu explained: "I have already promised my family to follow their arrangements and marry the son of our company's investor, so I can only stay in Beijing for another month."
“This…” Bai Chenxi was shocked. She held Yun Yishu’s hand tightly. “Does Gu Jingyu know about this?”
Yun Yishu shook his head, the sorrow on his face was like the frost in late autumn, heavy and cold.
She whispered, "I didn't tell him. This is my family affair, and he can't help. I just want to spend every minute and every second happily with him in this last month. Chenxi, I beg you not to tell him. I don't want him to fall into pain and regret after knowing this."
Bai Chenxi felt a pang of sadness when he heard this.
She asked softly, "What about... the baby in your belly?"
Yun Yishu lowered her head and gently stroked her abdomen, her eyes full of tenderness and reluctance, as if she was saying goodbye to a life that had not yet been born.
“This child…” Yun Yishu’s voice was a little choked up, “Perhaps, he is not destined to be with this world.”
As soon as she finished speaking, her tears began to flow like pearls from a broken string, unable to stop.
Bai Chenxi looked at this scene and felt as if his heart was being stabbed by needles, the pain was unbearable.
At this moment, Gu Jingyu's car slowly approached, breaking the silent haze.
Yun Yishu hurriedly used the back of her hand to gently wipe away the tears that had not yet dried on her face. She tried to make herself look stronger.
She forced a faint smile and said in a trembling voice, "Xiao Xi, we'll go back first."
After saying that, she hurriedly opened the car door, got in, and waved goodbye to Bai Chenxi through the window.
Gu Jingyu's gaze fell on her and he noticed the tears flashing in her eyes.
His heart moved slightly, and his voice was as gentle as water:
"What's wrong? Weren't you fine just now?"
Yun Yishu took a deep breath, as if to keep all the emotions in her heart.
She said softly, "It's nothing. I just thought that I would be leaving Jing City and returning to Yuecheng soon, and I felt reluctant to leave the friends I just met."
She and Gu Jingyu had an agreement that she would accompany him in Beijing for a month, and then they would go their separate ways and never have any more contact.
Gu Jingyu stared at her deeply, his deep eyes filled with reluctance and desire to keep her.
He was just about to open his mouth and say the words of plea hidden in his heart.
However, at this moment, a sharp pain suddenly pierced into his head like a sharp dagger.
He hurriedly pulled the car over to the side of the road, his brows furrowed, his face turned pale instantly, and an expression of pain quickly spread across his face.
Seeing this, Yun Yishu felt nervous, "Jingyu, is your headache coming back again?"
She hurriedly took out the bottle of special medicine from his briefcase, poured out a few pills with trembling hands, and carefully fed them into his mouth.
Gu Jingyu took the medicine, slowly closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and his complexion gradually recovered.
