Chapter 638 Have you figured it out?
Gu Wei noticed that he paused slightly, waved his hand in front of him with concern, bent down and asked, "What's wrong, An'an? Are you feeling unwell? Or do you not want to go to kindergarten?"
An An blinked her big eyes, and that strange feeling had completely disappeared.
He shook his head and said in a childish voice, "It's okay, Uncle, let's hurry up, or we'll be late!"
Yun Ning and Gu Sili smiled at each other, then held hands and walked to the door, watching Gu Wei and An An enter the elevator.
As soon as the elevator doors closed, Gu Sili suddenly scooped Yun Ning up in his arms.
Yun Ning gasped softly and instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck: "What are you doing?"
A burning flame burned in the man's deep eyes.
He carried her and strode toward the bedroom, his voice hoarse as he said, "I must keep my promise to our son. Now, let's go prepare An'an's little sister..."
……
A few days later, in the hospital corridor.
The stark white light poured down from above, illuminating everything without leaving anyone exposed.
The air was so heavy it felt like you could wring water out of it.
The occasional faint groans emanating from the ward added to the oppressive atmosphere.
The window at the end of the corridor reflected the gray sky, and a tall figure stood beside it.
Jiang Yu was wearing a well-pressed dark gray suit, but his tie was hanging loosely.
His usually meticulous attire now revealed a hint of sloppiness.
He had obvious dark circles under his eyes, and his long, slender fingers unconsciously rubbed the window frame, his gaze fixed on the direction of the ward.
Ge Jing huddled in the shadows at the corner of the corridor, her large mask almost completely covering her face.
Only a pair of eyes, once bright but now dull and lifeless, were visible.
She was hunched over, her fingers gripping the hem of her clothes tightly, and instinctively took a half-step back the moment she saw Jiang Yu.
"What are you doing here?"
Ge Jing's voice came through her mask, muffled and carrying a deliberately feigned indifference.
A flicker of pain crossed Jiang Yu's eyes: "You called me, but didn't say anything, and then hung up. I was worried, so I had someone check it out."
He took two steps forward. "Why didn't you tell me your aunt was hospitalized?"
"We have no relation whatsoever, why would I tell you?"
Ge Jing turned her face away, revealing a small section of her neck that looked particularly vulnerable. "I have other things to do, you should go now."
A hurt expression crossed Jiang Yu's face, but he still reached out and grasped her thin shoulder, saying softly, "Jingjing, I know that the fire has traumatized you both physically and mentally, but please believe me, we will definitely help you."
These days, he has been traveling all over the country, visiting countless famous doctors and experts, and he didn't even attend An'an's birthday banquet.
Jiang Yu only saw a glimmer of hope after hearing about an advanced skin grafting technique abroad.
But he dared not say it, fearing that he would once again plunge Ge Jing from hope into despair.
Therefore, Jiang Yu plans to go abroad first to investigate in person.
I'll tell Ge Jing the good news after I'm sure I can help her.
However, Ge Jing's intense inferiority complex and helplessness led her to refuse Jiang Yu's help.
She pushed him away abruptly, her voice trembling: "It's none of your business, get out!"
Jiang Yu sighed, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly. "Jingjing, what exactly do you want? You won't accept the compensation from Gu's Company, you won't accept my help, and you're already struggling on your own. Now your aunt is sick too, so please stop being so stubborn. Okay?"
"Willful? You call me willful!"
Ge Jing's eyes, hidden behind scars, reddened. "If I accept Gu's company's help and your money, will my face really be restored to its original state? I'd rather have never crossed paths with Gu's company, I'd rather have never met you! I just want my face to be the same as before!"
Jiang Yu felt incredibly heartbroken seeing Ge Jing on the verge of collapse.
He told her earnestly, "Yes, Jingjing, you will definitely return to normal. Please believe me!"
"I will never believe you again, and I will never trust anyone again! My face is already like this, please don't let me suffer any more misfortune!"
Ge Jing spoke as she backed away.
She choked back tears as she said, "Go, I'm telling you to go, Jiang Yu, just go!"
"..."
Seeing that Ge Jing's emotions had reached their limit, Jiang Yu stopped pressuring her.
He gave Ge Jing a deep look, then turned and slowly left.
As Ge Jing watched Jiang Yu's departing figure, the tears that had been welling up in her eyes finally fell.
Given her current state, what good could come of accepting help?
I'm just a worthless life, do whatever you want.
Ge Jing returned to the ward, looking utterly dejected.
At this moment, Fan Qianqian was carefully wiping her unconscious mother's arm.
The monitor emitted a regular ticking sound.
This only served to highlight the utter desolation in Ge Jing's heart.
After her mother was rescued, her vital signs stabilized, but she never woke up.
The doctor said this situation is relatively rare, and it is very likely that the patient does not want to wake up.
Ge Jing gave a self-deprecating laugh.
Yes, this is the kind of life, and this is the kind of daughter.
If it were him, she would also want to sleep forever.
Fan Qianqian got angry when she saw Ge Jing looking so lifeless.
She put down the towel with a cold laugh and said sarcastically, "You've seen Jiang Yu? Your emotions have been calmed? You don't even care about your burned face anymore? Love is truly great! You can disregard everything."
Ge Jing stopped there, her tone cold: "Fan Qianqian, I'm very grateful that you saved my mother. But who I met, what I said, and what I did are none of your business!"
Fan Qianqian immediately retorted sarcastically, "What's the use of just being tough with me? If you're so capable, then give me a taste of my own medicine!"
Ge Jing closed her eyes and took a deep breath: "My mother and I didn't have much interaction with you before. The fact that you were able to find her quickly after she took the sleeping pills and take her to the hospital means that you were secretly watching my mother and me. So, just say what your purpose is in approaching us."
Ge Jing was only burned, but her brain was not damaged, and she still has basic logical reasoning abilities.
After Fan Qianqian took her mother to the hospital, she didn't leave and even started taking care of her. There must be another reason.
Ge Jing didn't have the energy to get involved with her for too long, so she simply got straight to the point and asked directly.
Fan Qianqian's expression changed.
She lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then grabbed Ge Jing's wrist and pulled her out of the ward.
In the dim light of the corridor, Fan Qianqian crossed her arms, a mocking smile curving her red lips: "What purpose could I possibly have in getting close to you? It's nothing more than sharing a common enemy with you!"
Ge Jing shook her head wearily: "I have no interest in your schemes and revenge. Please leave, Senior Sister Fan."
"Ge Jing, are you really that spineless? Your face is burned into a monster, and your mother looks like this too. Are you just going to do nothing?"
Fan Qianqian leaned closer, "No wonder you've always been bullied, no wonder your mother has become like this! If I had a daughter like you, I would also be so depressed that I would commit suicide!"
"..."
Ge Jing lowered her head and remained silent.
Fan Qianqian continued to provoke Ge Jing: "With your pathetic attitude, you deserve to be bullied and disfigured for life!"
"Then what do you think I should do?"
Ge Jing suddenly looked up, tears rolling down her red-rimmed eyes. "How can I get revenge?"
A beautiful yet dangerous smile bloomed on Fan Qianqian's face.
The corridor lights flickered at that moment.
The dark clouds outside the window completely obscured the moonlight, casting long, dark shadows.
Fan Qianqian stepped forward, looking at Ge Jing's face covered in burns, and said in a seductive voice, "You've figured it out? Okay, I'll help you. There are many ways."
