The love story of a wealthy family amid anti-fraud storm at the border

Gu Chenxin looked at Ling Yue in a daze, his heart filled with sadness and disbelief.

"Ling Yue, don't you have any place for me in your heart?"

Ling Yue turned her face away, not daring to look into Gu Chenxin's eyes.

"I'm sorry. For all these years, I've been relying on finding him and uncovering the truth of what happened back then to persevere until now. For a while, it was really hard for me to accept anyone. I didn't want to hurt you because you saved me..."

Gu Chenxin listened to what Ling Yue said, his eyes were empty and lifeless, and he stood there in a daze as if he was in a trance.

"Just because I saved you? That's all?"

"Anything else? Isn't it enough that we were once life and death partners?" Ling Yue looked at Gu Chenxin. Her heart and eyes were full of thoughts of finding Yi Chen.

"No, Ling Yue, listen to me. I can wait, no matter how long it takes, but I just ask you not to push me away, okay?"

Ling Yue's risking her life to save him has made Gu Chenxin love him regardless of everything.

"Then tell me, Yichen is still alive, right?"

"From what Father Yuan said, I understood that he just disappeared back then, right?"

"Now, tell me if he is back."

Ling Yue's three consecutive questions left Gu Chenxin at a loss as to how to answer.

Gu Chenxin lowered his eyes, his eyelids became heavy and twitched from time to time, and he was silent for a long time...

"Answer me..."

Ling Yue stood up, holding his chest, and walked towards Gu Chenxin step by step.

The sharp pain from the wound made her forehead covered in sweat and her face pale.

"Yuer, I..."

Seeing Ling Yue’s condition, Gu Chenxin hurried forward and supported her.

"Yuer, what's wrong with you? It's all my fault. Let's not talk about it anymore, okay?"

There was only a hint of crimson on Ling Yue's chest!

It looked particularly dazzling in Gu Chenxin's eyes.

There was uneasiness in his eyes. He took a deep breath, and his eyes were filled with sour sadness!

"Tell me, was he the person who was at the scene that day?" Ling Yue continued to ask Gu Chenxin in a weak voice.

Her persistence and stubbornness made Gu Chenxin unable to hold on.

"Yuer, don't ask, your wound..."

Just when Gu Chenxin was struggling internally, the door of the ward opened.

The one who walked in was Yuan Ye!

When Yuan Ye saw the scene before him, he quickly leaned over and said:

"Yuer? Let me see your condition!"

After saying that, he signaled Gu Chenxin to carry Ling Yue to the hospital bed.

Then he was allowed to leave the ward.

Gu Chenxin felt a sense of relief when he left the ward.

However, his worry about Ling Yue's injury weighed on his mind even more.

After anxiously waiting for a long time, Yuan Ye walked out of the ward.

"Doctor Yuan, how is Ling Yue?"

"She was so excited that the wound on her chest opened up. We have to arrange another surgery for her immediately. It's hard to imagine who would be able to save her if she were to be put in any further danger."

Yuan Ye frowned...

"This child is too stubborn!"

"You know how I feel about her. She saved me this time... I can't let her go."

Gu Chenxin's frown didn't relax, but tears welled up in her eyes.

Yuan Ye looked at the young master of the Gu family who suddenly appeared in Ling Yue's life.

His thoughts went back to how he had loved Yi Han so deeply in the past.

His brow remained furrowed for a long time, his eyes fixed on the distance.

While he sympathized with Gu Chenxin, he also lamented the tricks of fate.

I once loved someone so persistently, but I went through countless twists and turns and hardships.

Now seeing Gu Chenxin so worried about Ling Yue, he seemed to see his former self.

"Young man, you can't force matters of the heart. Ling Yue has her own obsessions in her heart. If you insist on forcing her, it may only make you more miserable." Yuan Ye said earnestly.

Gu Chenxin remained silent. He knew that what Yuan Ye said made sense, but he could not let go of Ling Yue in his heart.

"Doctor Yuan, I understand what you mean. First of all, I didn't control my emotions well today."

Yuan Ye listened carefully to what Gu Chenxin said. He understood that what Gu Chenxin needed most at this time was a listener.

"The two most important women in my life are my mother and her."

Gu Chenxin sighed and continued, "She is very similar to my mother, both are very strong. But my mother doesn't have so many people who love her..."

Yuan Ye understood and patted Gu Chenxin's shoulder.

"Then give her some time. Maybe time will change everything. But the most important thing now is to let her recover from her injuries and not to stimulate her anymore."

Gu Chenxin nodded. He decided to put aside his feelings for the time being and put Ling Yue's health first.

He will stay by her side silently, waiting for the day when she opens her heart.

Yuan Ye took out a silk scarf from his pocket and handed it to Gu Chenxin.

Gu Chenxin guessed at a glance that this was probably the silk scarf left by Yi Chen that Ling Yue mentioned.

"You keep it. As for whether you want to tell her everything, it's up to you to decide."

Gu Chenxin took the scarf handed to him by Yuan Ye and was in a dilemma.

He could hardly imagine what the consequences would be if Ling Yue knew that Yi Chen was still alive and engaged in such a dangerous mission.

Yi Chen's instructions before leaving echoed in his mind at the same time.

Thinking of this, he silently put the scarf into his pocket.

After returning to Gu’s company, Gu Chenxin called Yi Chen.

"Brother, Ling Yue has been asking about you. Are you sure you want to tell her as agreed?"

"This matter will not be resolved so easily." Yi Chen paused for a few seconds and continued.

"You know about our time at the border, don't you? Don't leave her with any memories. I don't want her to be sad again."

"Brother, she asked about you today. Because of the emotional excitement, the wound split open, and I just had the second surgery!"

"What? Is she okay?"

When Yi Chen heard what Gu Chenxin said about Ling Yue's situation, he became nervous unconsciously.

"We must not let her get hurt again. You know what happened that day."

Gu Chenxin nodded. He knew that Yuan Ye had also told him the same thing.

"Please take good care of her... I'm leaving it in your hands!"

Ling Yue was in the ward, and the anesthetic from the surgery had just worn off.

After all, the physical pain was no match for the sadness in her heart.

The pain in her heart could not make her forget her longing for Yi Chen.

Although my eyes were covered with a black cloth that day and I couldn't see anything.

But the smell of Yi Chen in her memory and the unique warmth of his hands were real feelings.

Ling Yue was very sure that it was not because he was injured and unconscious at the time.

It seems that both Yuan's father and Gu Chenxin are hiding something from me.

That day, she actually heard Yi Chen crying anxiously. He called her "Yuer!"

Thinking of these scenes, the pain of the wound came back again.

Along with the longing and pain in her heart, her tears unconsciously soaked the pillow.

She slowly closed her eyes, trying to make her memories clearer.

Tears stung her eyes and blurred Yi Chen's face in her mind.

Ling Yue knew that what she said and her actions today might have hurt Gu Chenxin, but she couldn't control her emotions.

Ling Yue continued to struggle in dark thoughts. She longed to find Yi Chen, but was also full of guilt towards Gu Chenxin.

She knew Gu Chenxin's kindness and understood his deep affection.

But she really didn't have the extra energy to think about how to accept a new relationship.

Time passed quietly, and after the second operation, Ling Yue gradually woke up with Gu Chenxin's company.

But she opened her eyes weakly, her mind still immersed in thoughts of Yi Chen.

When Gu Chenxin and Yuan Ye saw Ling Yue wake up, the tension in their hearts gradually eased.

"Yuer, how do you feel?" Yuan Ye asked his "daughter" with concern.

Ling Yue responded weakly.

Gu Chenxin sat beside Ling Yue's bed, looking at her pale face, her heart filled with heartache.

"Ling Yue, when you get better, I'll take you abroad to relax."

Ling Yue narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Gu Chenxin, a hint of complex emotions flashing in her eyes.

"I'm sorry I hurt you. But I..."

Her voice was so faint that it seemed as if only Gu Chenxin could hear it!

Gu Chenxin gently held Ling Yue's hand and said, "I don't blame you. I just hope you can get better soon. When you get better, I will support you in whatever you want to do."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but raise his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of Ling Yue's eyes.

"Yuer, promise me that no matter what, you won't let yourself get hurt again, okay? Even if you don't love me, don't joke with your life anymore."

Ling Yue looked at Gu Chenxin in surprise. She didn't expect him to say such a thing.

"Why are you so nice to me?"

Gu Chenxin smiled bitterly, but his eyes were filled with tears.

"Because I have loved you for a long, long time. I hope you can be happy. Even if your happiness is not given by me, I am willing to give it all for you."

Ling Yue felt touched and a trace of "pity" for him ignited in her heart.

"Gu Chenxin, thank you. When I get better, I will think carefully about our relationship."

When Gu Chenxin heard what Ling Yue said, he couldn't believe his ears.

"Yuer. Really? Is it true?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Chenxin's eyes. He knew that this was an opportunity given to him by Ling Yue.

At this moment he was as happy as a child.

However, in Ling Yue's heart, she still did not give up on finding out about Yi Chen.

She knew that Gu Chenxin must know the news about Yi Chen.

Just based on the scene that day, the information revealed in Uncle Gu's words, and the mysterious signature in Gu Chenxin's missed call.

Ling Yue concluded that his guess was correct.
