Gu Chu blinked and asked, “Am I so close to him?”
Feng Jia frowned, thinking that she was going to quarrel with him again.
Unexpectedly, her next sentence was, “Be reasonable, the number one man in my heart has always been you! Even my father is behind you, what else do you want?”
Feng Jia’s body was startled, and the unhappiness in his heart instantly dissipated.
Gu Chu openly declared her love for him, and one sentence was enough to move his heart.
Feng Jia lifted her chin, lowered his head, and kissed her lips.
Gu Chu did not close her eyes. She hooked his neck and kissed him back.
It was a very gentle kiss. It was not lustful, and it calmed the panic and helplessness in her heart.
When Gu Chu was alone, she could remain calm and collected in any situation. However, when she was facing him, she became weak. He had already let go of her, yet she still wanted to continue.
Feng Jia caught a glimpse of someone coming in from the corner of his eye. He said in a low voice, “The doctor is coming in.”
Gu Chu quickly moved away. She even snatched the chopsticks from his hand and started eating.
The nurse behind the doctor saw that she was eating and said, “The blister on your hand hasn’t completely healed yet. Let your boyfriend feed you.”
Gu Chu coughed lightly. “I am fine. There is nothing wrong with my body, right?”
The doctor briefly explained her condition. She had been trapped in the fire for so long. How could she be completely fine?
She still needed to stay in the hospital for a period of time. She could only be discharged after her condition had completely stabilized.
“What about the other girl? Is her condition similar to mine?” Gu Chu asked.
She vaguely remembered that her secretary seemed to have collapsed before her.
The doctor shook his head. “Her condition is more serious than yours. She was resuscitated two nights ago, but her condition is stable now. Judging from her recovery, she should be able to wake up in the next two days.”
Gu Chu was stunned. Feng Jia only said that her life was not in danger, but she did not expect it to be so serious. She thought that she was just like her.
She lifted the blanket. “I’ll go and see her.”
Feng Jia grabbed her hand. “You can go and see her when she wakes up. There’s a nurse there taking care of her. Don’t worry.”
The doctor also said, “Miss Gu, it’s better for you to rest.”
Gu Chu also knew that she could not exert herself. She only nodded. “Alright, if anything happens, inform me immediately.”
The doctor expressed that he understood. He then asked the nurse to take her blood pressure and heart rate before leaving.
Gu Chu thought about it and decided to inform Zhou Xuan’s family. At the very least, she had to inform her boyfriend.
After her boyfriend answered the phone, he immediately said that he would take the earliest flight to be there.
Gu Chu hung up the phone. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, “Li Xiu is really vicious. How did his son kill that girl?”
Feng Jia did not reply. He only said, “You don’t want to know.”
Gu Chu closed her eyes.
As the saying goes, justice is served.
The girl had been lying in the wasteland for more than 20 years. Her grievances had finally come to light.
That day, the ambulance sent Gu Chu directly to the public hospital. Feng Jia did not transfer her to another hospital. Although the public hospital had private wards, it was not as well equipped as the private hospital.
Feng Jia wrung a clean towel and wiped her face. Gu Chu asked, “How did the police know that the fire was related to Li Xiu and the others?”
Shouldn’t they have run away by then?
Only she and her secretary knew the inside story, but they were unconscious at the time.
Feng Jia replied, “When her son was running away, he happened to run into a neighbor. That neighbor was brave and alert, so he immediately caught him and handed him over to the police. Her son was timid and confessed to everything.”
His tone was cold. “They were charged with multiple crimes. The three of them will spend the rest of their lives in prison.”
After wiping her face, Gu Chu fell asleep again in a daze.
Feng Jia saw that she was asleep, so he turned on the computer to do work.
The ward gradually fell into silence, leaving only the sound of fingers tapping on the keyboard.
Suddenly, his fingers paused. He suddenly recalled that morning.
He had originally decided not to come. He wanted to meet an important client who had come from afar. However, he had a premonition and called Susan to ask her not to refund the ticket, so he still managed to catch the flight.
At that time, Susan was very surprised and asked, “CEO Feng, is your trip to the capital for business or personal matters?”
He replied without even thinking, “It’s about my marriage.”
