"Sometimes I really feel like this is all a dream. It's good enough that I don't wake up, or else I wake up and find that they are all …" Xia Yu closed her eyes, her voice filled with despair. But now that her heart was weak and on the verge of collapse, she didn't know how she had survived every day.
"Gong Qin..."
Xia Yu was startled. She lifted her face and suspiciously looked at Gong Qin's hand.
"Gong Qin, you …"
… ….
The door to the ward was pushed open, and the doctor walked in to take a routine medical examination of Gong Qin. Xia Yu stood up and moved aside, quietly watching everything.
Gong Luwei sighed and said: "I wonder when Qin Er will wake up …"
"Yeah."
Xia Yu's gaze landed on Gong Qin's face. His dark eyes were abnormally calm.
"Xia Yu, if you want to come see him, tell me, I can help you guys …. This is the only thing that can be done. " Gong Luwei appeared to be friendly, but Xia Yu forced out a smile and nodded, agreeing to it.
"Then let's go."
Xia Yu and Gong Luwei left together. When Xia Yu left, she even turned to look at the sickbed, her expression was hard to describe, and grinded her teeth.
At night.
Gong Luwei returned to the ward and picked up the knife, slowly sharpening the apple. His movements were skillful. The blood-red apple was quickly peeled and then placed on a plate to the side.
"Look, I cut this for you, but it's a pity …"
He carefully wiped the knife clean, revealing its cold luster under the reflection of the light.
"You... "You must be in great pain now, what's the point in continuing to hold on. You're in great pain, I'm in great pain too …"
"Don't worry, there won't be any problems with the management of Tianjie Group with me. You once trusted me this much, you should trust me now as well." Gong Luwei's lips curled up, the blade slowly approached Gong Qin's face. Gong Qin's face was pale white, he did not make any move, even if he were to stab the blade into his body, he would not have any reaction.
"So you can go without worries."
It was quiet in the ward, and even though Gong Luwei's face was calm, his pitch-black pupils revealed signs of madness. After a few seconds, he felt that's neck would be stabbed with a knife, he suddenly retracted the knife and stabbed it into a peeled apple beside him.
He took out a syringe from his pocket. Inside the syringe, there was a transparent liquid. He did not know what it was.
"You are my nephew. I will not let you leave in pain."
Gong Luwei took one last look at Gong Qin's face before he slowly stood up and rested his eyes on the bottle.
He raised his hand and was about to insert the needle into the hose and mix it with the deadly poison.
Kacha kacha … A soft voice was heard.
Gong Luwei's body froze, and in the silence, the volume of the tiny voice seemed to increase by several times. His expression was odd as he turned his face.
"Who?" There was someone else in the room.
He had clearly sent everyone else away, but no one else came … Why?
Gong Luwei turned his face around and suddenly bumped into those pitch-black eyes. He was shocked and almost cried out in fright.
Unknowingly, Gong Qin had already opened her eyes and quietly looked at him. Her eyes contained surprise, but even more so, disappointment and despair. From start to finish, he believed in Gong Luwei. No matter how much doubts the people of the Gong Jia had, he was still willing to properly communicate with his only uncle.
However, he didn't expect that the person who would harm him in the end was his most trusted uncle.
"You … "How could you …"
Gong Luwei looked at Gong Qin in a daze.
"Gong Qin reached out and took off the breathing apparatus. His body was thin, and his hands had distinct joints. I woke up a long time ago. "
He lowered his eyes slightly. His pupils were pitch-black and were filled with an ice-cold aura.
"Uncle …"
He was in pain when he made this decision, he had already woken up when Xia Yu came to visit him. At that time, he wasn't even sure if Gong Luwei was the one who wanted to get rid of him. He and Xia Yu colluded to expose and prove everything.
Xia Yu opened the door to the ward with the camera in his hand.
"I've already recorded everything you've done." Xia Yu's eyes were also ice-cold. "Gong Luwei... Why would you do that? "
Not only to get rid of Gong Qin, the matter of wanting to take control of Tianjie Group, or... About her mother.
She frowned and shook her head, "Why did you want to harm my mother? She treated you as her best friend from start to finish. In the end, I didn't even suspect you. The result is that you attacked her in the final stage! "
What Xia Yu heard from Ye Yuxiu was the truth behind what had happened at that time. Ye Yuxiu had never made a move against Ye Yujin before, she only respected her elder sister and wanted to persuade him to return back to the Ye Family. At that time, the only person in contact with Ye Yujin was Gong Luwei.
Ye Yujin trusted Gong Luwei. Even if he was taking care of his children, he had contact with this only good friend of his.
But he didn't expect that...
Gong Luwei looked up at Xia Yu, and saw someone else through her face.
He suddenly smiled, revealing an extremely faint smile. Following which, his smile became even more crazed. "Hahahaha..."
"You said that she views me as a good friend? Then, do you know that I don't need any friends at all! I was so good to her that I gave her everything and she chose someone else. Furthermore, even though she had been abandoned and raised a child by herself, she had never changed her mind! Why … "Why do you think that is?"
"..." Xia Yu remained silent. She wasn't too clear about what had happened between them.
However, she could understand her mother's choice at that time. If she fell in love with a person, there would never be a change. Even if countless things happened in the middle of the process, there would never be a change in the relationship.
Xia Yu's gaze fell on Gong Qin's face, and when she saw his haggard appearance, she could not help but be moved.
"It's all your fault!"
"It's all because of you..."
Gong Luwei still did not give up. In the end, he turned around and prepared to insert the syringe into Gong Qin's body. Although Gong Qin had woken up, he was still lying in the sickroom for a few months. His body was weak, and as he watched the syringe approach him, he could not avoid it.
"Gong Qin!" Xia Yu inhaled a breath of cold air.
"Bastard!"
At this time, a dignified voice rang out, and Gong Luwei was startled when he heard the voice.
"Are you still insisting on not realizing your mistake?" Gong Hetian walked over with his walking stick, he was trembling from head to toe from anger, and his eyes were filled with disappointment.
Just as Gong Luwei was in a daze, a few bodyguards ran over and snatched the syringe from his hand, suppressing him.
Gong Luwei looked at Gong Hetian in a daze, but did not have any reaction.
"You disappoint me." Gong Hetian quietly said, her ancient and hoarse voice filled with disappointment. Gong Luwei's pupils contracted, and his face became deathly pale. He still vividly remembered the past, and Gong Hetian of that time had said the same thing to him.
You disappoint me.
You are not someone from the Gong Jia.
Get out!
These injurious words deeply hurt his heart. The resentment in his heart became more and more intense. In the end, he was no longer able to suppress it, so he was able to do such a thing.
"Take him away!"
… ….
Gong Luwei had already reported all of his crimes to the police station, and also handed over all of his evidence. The crime of murder had caused him to be imprisoned for ten years. From start to finish, no one had visited him.
This was all his own fault.
Xia Yu sat on the sickbed, his body had already recovered, but he still needed to train his muscles to be able to move normally.
"Take your time. No need to worry."
Gong Qin stopped what he was doing, and turned to look at Xia Yu, "How did you find out?"
"What?"
Xia Yu acted like he did not know what was happening and raised his head to look at Gong Qin.
After a long while, Gong Qin shook his head. Some things were done, there was no need to bring it up anymore …
Xia Yu's phone started to vibrate. She looked at it and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. She picked it up.
Not knowing what was said inside, Xia Yu's pupils shrank, and then, he got up and walked out.
"I know."
She opened the door, her expression clearly not right, and quickly said: "Gong Qin, I still have things to do here, so I'll be leaving first."
… ….
Xia Yu drove, and the final place he arrived at was the prison.
Gong Luwei called her from the prison, wanting to speak to her one last thing.
Originally, Xia Yu would never even take a glance at other things, but... Gong Luwei's words were from what happened back then. Ming Ruowei kidnapping Zong Xian, Gong Luwei actually knew about this.
Xia Yu walked over step by step. Seeing Gong Luwei in the glass room, her face turned cold, "What did you mean by that phone call?"
Seeing Xia Yu, Gong Luwei smiled brilliantly.
"You're here."
"Zong Xian, he …."
Xia Yu's entire mind was filled with Zong Xian's thoughts, he simply couldn't think of anything. Gong Luwei stood up, and leaned his face close to the window. His pitch black face stared at Xia Yu and said coldly: "If … I told you your son wasn't dead. "
"None of them died."
When Gong Luwei's words fell, a buzzing sound resounded in Xia Yu's mind.
If he didn't die …
Zong Xian did not die?
Then where is he!?
"Where is Zong Xian? "Tell me where my son is!" Xia Yu punched on the glass, wanting to ruthlessly punch the face in front of him. "Hurry up and tell me!"
… ….
In another place.
"Daddy?"
"What's wrong?" Lu Zichu hugged the boy and kissed his forehead. "Didn't you say you wanted to eat ice cream?"
"Hm!" "Ice cream!" The boy laughed, his eyes narrowing.
"But, Dad. "This person …" His young and tender little finger pointed at the crystal screen, on it appeared Xia Yu who was dressed in a beautiful evening gown, and played the footage of when Xia Yu was first appointed as Citic Group.
"Dad, I think this aunt is very familiar. Have we met before?"
