Chapter 187 Bathroom, Guardian.
As the car changed lanes, Chen Yu and Xu Yi's eyes met again, and then the two of them looked back and forth at Gu Xixi.
However, Gu Xixi simply held the letter and looked out the window at the scenery.
Chen Yu immediately reported the situation of the Great Huang Dynasty and Gu Xixi.
When the car arrived at the hospital, Gu Xixi was the first to get out and hurried inside. A nurse came to greet her, "Ms. Gu, you've come to see Chu Feng, right? He's been moved to a regular ward now, in room 201 on the second floor."
"Okay, thank you." Gu Xixi nodded with a smile and then went upstairs.
She took a few deep breaths, and the sadness on her face disappeared completely. When she reached the door of the ward, Chu Feng was sitting up from the bed. He looked at Gu Xixi's slightly red eyes and understood.
"Xixi, you're back. Why don't you go back and rest first, and come see me again tomorrow? I want to have a good talk with Tong Yue and the others today. You're a girl, so it might not be very convenient for you to be here."
Tong Yue, who hadn't seen the message yet: ? ?
What's inconvenient about it?
Gu Xixi stopped in her tracks as she entered the room. She nodded and said, "Okay, what would you like to eat? Send me a message and I'll bring it to you tomorrow."
"Your mother will bring soup tomorrow, you just need to come." Chu Feng waved his hand, "Go back and rest, look how big your dark circles are."
Tong Yue: ...
Gu Xixi's eyes were just red... red... He immediately opened his phone to check the messages he had missed, and then waved to Gu Xixi with a smile, "Comrade Xixi, go on ahead. You're still a staff member for the mecha display at the expo tomorrow, so make sure you're well-rested."
"Okay, then you should get some rest." Gu Xixi said goodbye with a smile, then turned around, went downstairs, got into her car, and went back to the villa.
She glanced at Chu Feng and saw that he was indeed unharmed and recovering, which put her at ease.
Chen Yu and Xu Yi immediately followed Gu Xixi's steps, exchanging glances again to signal each other to say something comforting.
But the two stared at each other for a long time, unable to think of anything else besides some clichéd words of comfort.
But those platitudes... are bound to be useless...
Back at the villa, Gu Xixi's expression was normal. "You two go back and do what you need to do. I'll go upstairs to wash up and take a nap. I want to have hot pot for dinner."
After saying that, Gu Xixi went upstairs.
"Chen Yu, how about we call Uncle Gu and Aunt Chen?" Xu Yi thought it was time to tell them, since they were Gu Xixi's parents and knew her best, they would definitely have a solution.
Chen Yu nodded. In the past, he would send money to girls to coax them, buying them bags, diamonds, and the like. Gu Xixi didn't lack these things... He was at a loss.
The two immediately contacted Mr. and Mrs. Gu.
Upstairs, Gu Xixi entered the room and looked at everything belonging to Shen Qingyan in the small study by the entrance. Her nose tingled with tears again.
"Miss Gu!" A familiar voice rang out from behind, seemingly overlapping with Shen Qingyan's voice, causing Gu Xixi to momentarily lose her senses.
She was frozen in place by an unknown force, but what flew out of her eyes was a plump white bird, chirping, "Miss Gu."
Gu Xixi felt even more bitter. She turned and went into the bathroom, her mind filled with the sparkling eyes of Shen Qingyan when they first met; and the calm gaze he gave her when they last met, without saying a word.
He watched her drink the half-life-and-death beverage, and only after confirming that she would be free from illness and worries in the future did he feel at ease, silently waiting for death alone.
How can he be so good?
Gu Xixi unfolded the letter she had been holding and began to read it word by word.
My beloved Xixi, your name is forever etched in my heart: The moon is cold and the wind is chilly, I lie on my sickbed, knowing my end is near. Looking back, it all seems like a dream, yet your image remains as clear as yesterday… After much deliberation, I realize that it would be a great regret if I did not express my feelings in this life. Therefore, I pick up my pen and dip it in ink, wishing to use this letter to express my heartfelt emotions. Though I know this love is difficult to fulfill, I still hope you will know my heart.
[Since I met you... I wish you a lifetime of peace and happiness, year after year... Shen Qingyan's last words.]
Below the signature at the end of the letter were two simple line drawings of people: one was her, wearing the clothes she wore when she went to open a supermarket in Dahuang Dynasty; the other was Shen Qingyan, who had a limp... The two little people sat side by side, smiling.
Perhaps it was the regret of not having had a chance to say anything, or perhaps it was the sorrow of losing such a good person, but Gu Xixi couldn't hold back her tears.
The more she pursed her lips to stop the sadness from spilling out of her throat, the more it flowed from her eyes.
Gu Xixi realized she was about to cry, so she simply turned on the shower and, under the cover of the sound of the rain, sat on the toilet, silently shedding tears and sobbing.
She covered her face with her hands, venting her emotions to the fullest.
Hot water was continuously poured onto the cold ground, and steam rose up in the semi-enclosed space, blurring people's vision.
Behind Gu Xixi, a figure dressed in a blue robe appeared and disappeared, almost transparent.
The figure seemed to be filled with sadness and heartache. He stood tall and elegant, his wide sleeves fluttering slightly. Inside the sleeves, he seemed to be holding something in his hand. His other transparent hand gently patted Gu Xixi's head several times.
But Gu Xixi couldn't sense that the transparent humanoid hand paused in mid-air for a moment before silently retracting.
The transparent figure slowly disappeared, and the system's voice echoed in Gu Xixi's mind: [Friendly reminder: The system's virtual avatar can transform into any…]
"Xixi, are you still washing up? Mom needs to talk to you." Gu's mother's voice sounded from outside the door. Gu Xixi immediately snapped out of her daze, quickly wiped away her tears, coughed several times to adjust her voice, and then answered, "Mom, I'll come downstairs when I'm done washing up. Please wait a moment."
"Okay." As the footsteps outside faded away, Gu's mother had a better understanding of her daughter's emotions.
"Hey, what did you just say?" Gu Xixi asked as she took off her clothes. The system didn't answer. Gu Xixi looked down and saw a red exclamation mark... It had really gone offline.
She quickly finished washing up, dried her hair, and went downstairs. Gu's parents were chatting with Chen Yu and Xu Yi on the sofa.
The group acted as if nothing had happened. Gu's mother beckoned to Gu Xixi, "Xixi, come here quickly. We're here on important business today. Do you have an invitation to that expo? Get one for your mom and dad. Of course, if it's suitable, we'll go; if not, we won't."
“Yes, yes, we just heard that this exhibition is very different, but tickets are hard to come by. We didn’t win any in the lucky draw, so we came to ask you.” Mr. Gu smiled, his eyes full of expectation.
At the same time, observing Gu Xixi's suppressed emotions, he and Gu's mother exchanged a glance and sighed imperceptibly.
Gu Xixi didn't know anything about this, but since she was a staff member, she could bring people in without an invitation, right?
"I'm sorry, this is my fault, Xixi. These are five invitation letters sent by Chu Anguo's leader half a month ago. He said he wanted me to give them to your parents, but I forgot." Aunt Qin came over with a small, high-tech bag and pulled out five invitation letters.
