Chapter 55
When Wen Yan followed Gu Heng to the hospital, the sun was about to set, the thin clouds were glowing with a faint golden halo, the leaves were shaking in the fine sunlight, and the air was filled with a hot summer atmosphere.
Wen Yan pushed open the door of the ward, and what he saw was no longer the gentle and kind face he had before. Instead, he was covered with cold tubes, and it was difficult to even speak, and he was so sick that he could barely see what he was.
"Aunt Lan?"
Wen Yan called softly, but no one answered. Her heart was so sad that she almost burst into tears.
Gu Heng didn't step forward, but quietly walked to the side and sat down, and then looked at Aunt Lan on the hospital bed in a daze. His eyes were a little red, and his left hand was unconsciously rubbing his right hand, looking like a child who was afraid of losing his family, sad and helpless. He looked at it for a moment, then lowered his head and stared at his feet, not looking up for a long time. In her lifetime, Wen Yan had never seen Gu Heng show such a desperate and dejected expression at any time, and for the first time, she had a feeling of pity for him.
She moved a chair and placed it lightly beside Aunt Lan's bed, then sat down slowly. Stretched out his hand, wrapped Aunt Lan's thin, almost warm hand in the palm of his hand, twisted his brows, and looked at her with red eyes tightly closed, her lips moved, and she couldn't say a word.
She could only quietly look at Aunt Lan's face covered with traces of time, the hair that had completely grayed between her temples, the dry and sunken eye sockets, and a burst of sourness welled up in her heart. When she was still at the Gu family, Aunt Lan's health was not good, but at least she could walk, laugh, and cook delicious meals for her while blaming her. In just one year, she has become like this, unable to move or speak, only a cold machine by her side. She used to say that her eyes were bad, but now she can't even take a good look at her.
"Aunt Lan, Aunt Lan......" Wen Yan is not a person who can speak, and he doesn't know what to say at this moment, so he can only suppress his voice and repeat these two words over and over again. She said something vague, accompanied by a choked voice, but at the moment she poured all her feelings, regret, reluctance, and guilt...... Aside from anything else, Aunt Lan used to be very nice to her, treating her as a family and treating her sincerely. In the long time she had been away from the Gu family, she really didn't think about going back to see her, her ruthlessness, her coldness, and her disgust with that 'home' actually wiped out the last bit of conscience in her heart......
She held Aunt Lan's hand, felt that her eyes were astringent and swollen, she couldn't see things clearly, and the pain in her heart was growing wildly.
They sat in the room for a long time, neither of them spoke, and the room was so quiet that they could hear each other's breathing. In the end, the sky was completely dark, and when she got up to leave, Wen Yan subconsciously glanced back, maybe it was the dim light in the room, she actually saw Aunt Lan faintly move her lower lips, although there was no sound, but Wen Yan could see that it was four words.
What I said was, forgive the young master......
Wen Yan didn't sleep all night.
She couldn't sleep, as soon as she closed her eyes, she would think of that afternoon six years ago, she would see her mother lying in front of her covered in blood, she closed her eyes tightly, there was no trace of blood on her face, she died so suddenly, so innocent, and she would be blamed and ridiculed after death, but she didn't have the ability to win dignity for her mother, so she would let her go so regretfully. After returning from the hospital, Wen Yan sat on the sofa, hugged her trembling body with both hands, bit her white lips, and stared straight at the coffee table in front of her, its cold and sharp edges and corners seemed to mock her innocence and stupidity mercilessly.
The next day, when it was slightly dark, Wen Yan got up from the sofa, went to the bathroom to wash his face, combed his hair, and then picked up his keys and mobile phone and prepared to go out.
The door was opened, she looked up, and saw that Gu Heng was already standing outside the door, and it seemed that he had been waiting for a while, he was still wearing yesterday's clothes, his expression was tired, and his eyebrows were somewhat depressed.
Wen Yan maintained the posture of holding the handrail of the door, looked at him steadily, and did not speak for a while.
Gu Heng also looked at Wen Yan for a moment, his black hair was draped casually over his shoulders, and his face was as pale as a transparent piece of rice paper, as if it would be blown away by the wind at any time. Just looking at it, there was a sudden strange feeling in his heart, he unconsciously stepped forward, and subconsciously reached out to hug Wen Yan, his movements were very light, almost simply touched her shoulder with his arm, and after feeling his face touch the โกโก touch brought by her soft hair, he was sure that he was really hugging this person. The feeling at that moment, although a little sour, was real and beautiful, and suddenly I settled down and didn't want to say anything, at least at this moment, I just wanted to look at her quietly and be watched by her.
Being held by Gu Heng with such unilateral wishful thinking, Wen Yan was very surprised that his first reaction was not to push it away, but his heart was filled with a strange feeling, both familiar and unfamiliar, and a small satisfaction that he had never felt. Such emotions don't even need to be spoken, and there is no need to suspect anything, just gently against his shoulder, smelling the cold breath that belongs only to him, closing his eyes and feeling that he is slowly rubbing his hair with his chin, and he actually wants to cry sadly.
It took a long time for her to come back to her senses, and then politely and distantly broke away from him, and then attributed the slow half-beat behavior to a temporary short-circuit in her brain after a sleepless night.
However, it cannot be denied that at the moment when she was hugged by Gu Heng, her heartbeat missed half a beat.
"You ......"
"I ......"
The two men spoke at the same time, stopped at the same time, and then paused with each other, looked at each other, and smiled awkwardly.
"You say it first...... "Gu Heng is very gentlemanly and follows the principle of ladies first.
"I'll go alone, you don't have to follow." Wen Yan was straightforward.
Gu Heng's face sank, and he regretted: "I'll say it first......"
As soon as the two of them walked downstairs, they were blocked by a few paparazzi at the entrance of the building, there were not many people, but it seemed that they were here to squat. I didn't expect to meet Wen Yan when I first came to go out, and even more coincidentally, Gu Heng was by my side, and there was a surprise in addition to the unexpected gain, so after the wolf blood was boiling and the blood was boiling, he asked questions.
"May I ask if you and Gu Heng are really together?" The first to speak was a young girl, so anxious that she didn't even bother to call it.
"When two people go out together in the early morning, are they already living together?" Without waiting for Wen Yan to answer, the next question has been thrown.
"Mr. Gu, do you still have any contact with your ex-girlfriend Yan Ran?" It's not a long one.
"Regarding Wen Yan and Yan Ran's disappearance some time ago, who do you care more about?"
"Mr. Gu broke up with his ex-girlfriend, is it really because of Wen Yan's intervention as the outside world said?!"
Gu Heng didn't speak, he didn't have a black face, he held Wen Yan firmly with one hand, pushed away the paparazzi blocking in front with the other, and walked towards the car parked on the side of the road.
The shutter sound of the camera was uninterrupted until the car started and Wen Yan looked behind him in the rearview mirror, and those people were still chasing the car while holding the camera and shooting wildly.
She withdrew her gaze and closed her eyes to rest.
"Don't you want to know?" The car drove for a while, and Gu Heng suddenly asked.
"What?" Wen Yan opened his eyes.
"What was I thinking when you all disappeared at the same time?" Gu Heng's tone was calm.
Wen Yan looked at the infinite stretch of the street in front of him, but did not respond. After a while, he closed his eyes again and said in a low voice, "I don't want to." โ
Gu Heng turned his head to look at the look on her face, and a shrewd light jumped in his eyes: "Don't want to, or don't dare?" โ
Wen Yan didn't open his eyes, but said very clearly and firmly: "Either stop or shut up." โ
Gu Heng's eyes darkened, and he chose to shut up very knowledgeable.
The two of them came to the gate of the community again, the security guard on duty was still the guy yesterday, seeing the two of them, he immediately asked to show the door number, no card was not allowed to enter the door, and finally Wen Yan was helpless, saying that he was looking for the residents of Unit 2 on the 16th floor B, and the young man said slowly: "Then you don't have to look for it, they have moved away." โ
Wen Yan's heart suddenly froze: "When?" She stared at the face of the security guard, although she was anxious but had to suppress her restless feelings, she didn't know why the man had suddenly moved away, but she knew that there was no such coincidence in the world.
"Just yesterday. I heard that I was going to immigrate to the United States, and the house has been transferred to an agent for sale. After he finished speaking, he went into the security room, and said impatiently as he walked, "I know this, if you want to find someone, go to the United States to find it!" โ
Wen Yan stood at the gate of the community for a long time.
She didn't speak, she didn't move, she just stood there in silence. The clear morning light shone on her slightly pale face, and there was a sense of trance unreality.
Gu Heng turned to face her, and his hands were gently placed on her shoulders.
"We still have a chance." "The more confusion you have, the closer you get to the answer," he said. โ
"I know." Wen Yan slowly raised her head, looked at the warm sunshine above her head, and then showed a shallow, bright but firm smile, "I should be glad, because until today I know that what I am doing for her now is more proud of her than I can become a star like her and get more honors and awards than her." โ
She clenched her fists, but her face was very calm.
Mother, what I am doing now is a qiฤ do you hear and see.
At this moment, do you have peace?
