"It's not worth a damn." Yin Hong finally couldn't help cursing, then said slowly, "It has something to do with the scar on your back, right?"

Gu Yulan had a very hideous scar on her back, about the size of a palm. When Yin Hong saw it, his scalp felt numb and tight, and he asked her what was going on.

But she just smiled and said lightly that the car accident was over. Now that she thought about it, the matter must be related to Ruan Shiyuan, because he often saw her reaching out to touch the scar in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Gu Yulan, am I a petty person in your eyes?"

"Why do you ask?"

"What do you think?" Yin Hong stared at her.

Finally, Gu Yulan pursed her lips and said, "You guessed right, the scar on my back is indeed related to Brother Ruan."

"Remember when I told you I was in a car accident? That's where the scar was."

Recalling the accident, Gu Yulan's eyes were wet with tears and her breath was heavy with sorrow. "My life was saved by Brother Ruan. Without him, there would be no Gu Yulan today, let alone your wife Yin Hong. I believe you should have heard about the serious accident on the Beijing-Haikou Expressway that year."

Yin Hong was stunned. "Beijing-Haikou Expressway? Is that the major accident where eighteen vehicles collided in a pileup, resulting in twenty deaths and sixteen injuries?"

Gu Yulan nodded. "I was in one of the eighteen cars. Brother Ruan was behind me at the time. When the accident happened, I was trapped in the car and couldn't get out. In addition, the vehicles on both sides were attacked from both sides. The situation was very urgent and dangerous."

"The most important thing is that there was a heavy truck on my left. The truck body was shaking violently due to the collision. It looked like it was about to fall down. It was Brother Ruan who risked his life to save me.

Yin Hong, you know, my entire car was crushed. Can you imagine what would have happened if I hadn't gotten out? Can you imagine how my legs would have trembled uncontrollably after I got out?

"So you want to repay the favor?" Yin Hong asked.

Gu Yulan burst into tears, and Yin Hong was inexplicably startled by her tears. How could such a strong-willed woman burst into tears so suddenly? What was going on?

"Repay a favor? What favor can I repay? I will never be able to repay Brother Ruan's kindness in my lifetime. I couldn't repay him when he was injured, and I couldn't repay him later when his Ruan family got into trouble."

Gu Yulan suddenly burst into tears, her bloated body trembling, which made Yin Hong feel very distressed.

Walking up to him and patting his shoulder, he whispered comfortingly, "It's okay, it's all over. Aren't you protecting his daughter now?"

Gu Yulan sniffed, "Yin Hong, actually, Brother Ruan later...had an artificial heart installed."

"What?" Yin Hong was surprised.

He thought that was the end of it, didn't he?

"He injured his heart while saving me. I was the one who had to endure all that. He risked his life to protect me. Later, he was rushed to the hospital, and the doctor said he needed an artificial heart transplant as soon as possible, otherwise his life would be in danger."

"But Jing Hai didn't have an artificial heart that matched his at the time, so I..."

"So you took him abroad for surgery without telling his family. Does that mean Madam Ruan and that girl still don't know he has an artificial heart?"

Gu Yulan nodded heavily, tears streaming down her cheeks and into her body, and she felt like a knife was cutting her heart.

"The transplant operation was a success, but I didn't know that behind this success was an endless abyss for Brother Ruan."

"What does this mean?" Yin Hong's throat tightened.

Gu Yulan bit her lower lip hard and said slowly, "Brother Ruan had rejection after the operation, and all of this... is because of me. It was me who caused him to suffer so much torture and pain. It was me who caused him to endure the pain of hanging every night after the operation."

"Gu Yulan, can you please finish what you want to say at once? What's going on?" Yin Hong looked at her beating her chest and grabbed her wrist and said angrily.

Does this woman want to die? She hits her chest with the same force she used to crack the table. Look, this ferocious force makes her spit blood.

The bloody red liquid fell on the sheets, which was shocking, but she seemed to feel no pain and was still smiling foolishly?

Crazy, this woman must be crazy.

At this moment, Gu Yulan was immersed in painful memories, her heart was torn and tormented. She tried hard to break free from Yin Hong's wrist.

He screamed hysterically, "I'm the one who killed Big Brother Ruan. I deserve to die. I really deserve to die."

"Originally, there was no problem with the artificial heart transplanted by Brother Ruan, but I was deceived by someone who claimed to be Brother Ruan's friend.

He said he was an old friend of Brother Ruan and had come to see him after hearing about his accident. I foolishly believed him and told him everything about Brother Ruan's urgent need for an artificial heart transplant.

"But, but he actually tampered with Big Brother Ruan's artificial heart, causing severe rejection after the surgery and unbearable pain. In other words, even if there hadn't been that fire at the Ruan family, Big Brother Ruan... wouldn't have lived long."

"That man is his business rival and has tried to kill Brother Ruan many times, but I have become the sharpest blade in his hand.

"Brother Ruan saved my life, but I was so foolish as to join others in wielding a knife and killing him. Yin Hong, do I really deserve to die?"

It was the first time that Yin Hong saw Gu Yulan crying so hard, so hard that the quilt was stained with wet marks.

And her once cold and beautiful eyes were now like a broken faucet, endlessly flowing, and no matter how hard he tried to wipe them with tissues, he could never finish.

Not only that, the soft cotton tissue quickly became wet as soon as it touched her face, and it felt heavy, like a rock falling on Yin Hong's chest.

Gu Yulan continued to talk to herself, "The saddest thing is that I didn't even know that Brother Ruan had a severe rejection problem, and he didn't mention it a word to avoid making me feel guilty. Until... after the fire at the Ruan family's house, I accidentally saw his medical records in the hospital."
