After the divorce, Mr. Gu spent every day at the crematorium.

It hurts.

Uncle Wang closed his eyes in pain.

Haoxuan's death is inextricably linked to Gu Tianyou.

Even if Gu Tianyou didn't do it intentionally.

However, Haoxuan did die because of Gu Tianyou.

Figured this out.

Uncle Wang stood up, gave Gu Tianyou a deep look, and then walked towards the door.

As he passed by Shen Yao, he gave a slight bow.

"Young Madam, perhaps you and Young Master really should have a good talk. I'll stay outside; please call me if anything comes up."

"it is good."

The door is closed.

The sound of the machines operating in the room began to ring out clearly again.

Shen Yao sat on the edge of the bed and held the man's hand.

"Gu Tianyou, I think I'm ridiculous. When we used to sleep together, I always complained that you would hug me from behind."

"Now that I'm sleeping alone, I feel a little uneasy because you're not behind me."

"I was very tired and sleepy, but I just couldn't fall asleep in bed."

"......"

After talking to herself for an unknown amount of time, Shen Yao finally fell asleep by the bedside.

When Uncle Wang came in, he saw Shen Yao still asleep, lying face down on the edge of the bed.

He wanted to wake Shen Yao up so she could go back to her room to sleep.

But when they tried to pry her and Gu Tianyou's hands apart, they couldn't.

In the end, Uncle Wang had no choice but to give up.

He grabbed a cashmere blanket and draped it over Shen Yao.

When Shen Yao woke up the next day, she found that she had actually slept by the bedside all night.

When I got up, I found that my whole body ached.

When she looked at the man on the bed, she found that he had woken up at some point and was looking at her with a pair of dark, clear eyes.

Shen Yao doubted her eyes. She rubbed her eyes and opened them again, only to find that the man was indeed awake.

She stood up, somewhat agitated.

"Gu Tianyou, you're really awake."

The man lay on the bed and blinked.

After a long while, he finally spoke in a hoarse voice.

"woke up."

Shen Yao was overjoyed and was about to run out to tell Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang this happy news when the man stopped her.

I'd like to talk to you alone for a bit.

A bright light burned in the man's dark eyes.

Suppressing her joy, Shen Yao bent down and moved closer to the man.

"What do you want to tell me?"

The man blinked, staring intently at the other man.

"I'd like to tell you about my situation."

......

The cause of the battery factory accident was investigated and clarified the day after Gu Tianyou arrived.

It's caused by employee negligence.

Gu Tianyou's rescue efforts were very effective. Although there were about a dozen injured people, thankfully no one died.

Gu Tianyou did not hesitate to provide compensation when it was due.

At the same time, legal action was taken against the relevant supervisors and employees who were not responsible.

Gu Tianyou originally planned to return to Shenzhen immediately after dealing with these matters.

However, on the way back, I heard that there was a great campsite nearby.

Thinking that he could bring Shen Yao there to relax when he had time, he drove there for a drive.

The earthquake struck when the car reached a nearby town.

A collapsed pillar struck Gu Tianyou's car.

Although it didn't hit Gu Tianyou's head, the shock and damage it caused made him faint on the spot.

The road collapsed, burying him underground.

Fortunately, there was that big pillar, and the car was relatively sturdy, so Gu Tian managed to hold on until Huangfu Hao and his men came to rescue him.

"Besides your head, are you injured anywhere else?"

As Shen Yao listened to Gu Tianyou's casual narration, her heart was in her throat.

"Apart from not being able to move, everything else is fine," Gu Tianyou comforted Shen Yao with a smile.

Shen Yao refused to believe it and insisted on lifting the blanket.

A look of horror appeared in Gu Tianyou's eyes.

"No, don't lift the blanket."

The more he acted this way, the more uneasy Shen Yao felt.

"Gu Tianyou, we've been married for so long, is there anything we can't see?"

"Shen Yao, don't look, don't look! I'm begging you."

The man looked at Shen Yao with almost pleading eyes.

That pleading look finally made Shen Yao, who had the urge to pull the blanket off Yao, press her down again.

She was still worried and asked, "Gu Tianyou, don't lie to me. Are you really alright with all your limbs intact?"

The man met Shen Yao's gaze and nodded.

Why would I lie to you? My limbs are perfectly fine.

It just can't move.

The man smiled, but there was a deep sense of loneliness in his eyes.

Shen Yao looked at the man's smile, but her unease did not dissipate.

On the contrary, it got worse.

"Gu Tianyou, don't worry, no matter how you change, I will always want you."

"What did you say?" Gu Tianyou wondered if he had misheard.

Is it really possible for such words to come from the mouth of someone who dislikes their own woman?

Seeing the man's incredulous expression, Shen Yao repeated herself again and again.

"Gu Tianyou, listen to me carefully. No matter how you change, I will still want you."

"Why? Why? What have I done to deserve this?"

The man's voice was choked with emotion.

He has become like this.

I can no longer be as confident as before, forcibly taking over women.

Women deserve better partners.

Every time he let go in the past, it was just a feint.

He was somewhat unwilling to accept it.

But now, he lies in bed, unable to do anything.

What does he have to offer to love this woman?

"Gu Tianyou, if you feel sorry for me, then try your best to get better and make it up to me!"

"I......"

Feeling the woman's weight pressing down on him, Gu Tianyou desperately wanted to roll over and pin her beneath him.

But now, he can't even do this simplest of movements.

He could only use his still-functioning hands to hold the woman tightly.

Shen Yao felt a wetness on her neck.

She knew the man was crying.

She pretended not to know anything.

Perhaps exhausted from crying, the man fell into a deep sleep again.

Shen Yao had reviewed the relevant examinations and found that when Gu Tianyou was buried underground, his head was hit by some heavy objects, which injured part of his motor central nervous system.

"He might learn to walk someday. But maybe he'll never learn to walk."

As Shen Yao listened to the attending physician's diagnosis, her heart felt as if it had fallen into an abyss.

After waking up that night, Gu Tianyou remained unconscious for two more days.

His stomach is still very fragile, and he can only eat liquid food.

In most cases, basic life support can only be maintained through intravenous infusion.

His body grew increasingly thin.

Shen Yao moved many of the research institute's equipment to her home and began producing new drugs with a simple press.

The field of researching new drugs is related to brain injury repair.

Time flies, and it's New Year's Eve in the blink of an eye.

Shen Yao stayed by the unconscious man's side and whispered in his ear, "Happy New Year."

The man's hand twitched slightly again.

My eyelids started twitching violently again.
