67. Chapter 67
Xia Bai stared directly at April's blank expression and was silent.
She had been worried that Gu Qingyan would be with Lin April, but she didn't expect that a Su Zi suddenly appeared halfway. Gu Qingyan was obviously very fond of Su Zi, she had seen them walking together several times, and every time, that woman's smile was so proud and dazzling.
And she would rather lose to Lin April than to Lin April's replacement.
Xia Bai thought indifferently, turned his head, and asked instead of answering: "April, you tell me the truth, do you like Gu Qingyan?" ”
Her gaze was sharp, full of scrutiny, and she locked on to April's eyes motionlessly.
In the sight, the pale and emaciated woman had a moment of surprise in her eyes when she heard her words, and then calmed down, her eyes clear and clean.
April looked at Xia Bai with a gentle expression, squirmed her lips, and said slowly: "I never thought so, he is such an excellent person, not something I can deserve." ”
When these words were spoken, the woman's eyes were calm, and she did not show an expression of inferiority because of her humility.
Xia Bai shook his head and whispered like a sigh: "There is no such thing as affection, there is no worthiness or unworthiness, only love or not." ”
What she didn't say was that as long as Gu Qingyan loves you, he won't mind your birth, I'm afraid, even Gu Qingyan himself doesn't know that he likes you.
Really, two fools.
Xia Bai was a little confused about her own attachment, and she herself began to not understand what she wanted. When she was a student, her feelings for Gu Qingyan were sincere, and after the invasion of the years, did she still love him firmly?
If you look at it from another angle, she is still the little princess of the wealthy family today, but Gu Qingyan is a poor boy who is poor and white, will she still be as infatuated with him as she is now?
There is no if in the world, just as there is no regret medicine, she did something wrong and lost Gu Qingyan's love for her, and she will never get it again.
"In April, I didn't stay with Gu Qingyan, if you like him, you don't have to take care of me, after all, the relationship between me and him ended as early as when I was a student."
Xia Bai said with a confused expression, seeing that there was no cup in her hand, she fortunately poured a large sip of wine into the bottle, because she was in a hurry, some burgundy liquid flowed down the corners of her mouth, wetting the white neckline, looking from a distance, as if stained with blood.
April hurriedly leaned over, snatched the remaining red wine from her hand, supported Xia Bai with her free hand, and gently persuaded her: "Xia Bai, don't drink anymore, drinking too much hurts your stomach." ”
At this time, Xia Bai's mind was disturbed by alcohol, and she was already a little unconscious, she grabbed April's arm and said entanglemently: "April, you and Gu Qingyan are together, you two ...... It's a good fit, only in ...... By your side, he won't lose sleep, he's ...... now I don't need it anymore. ”
At this time, Xia Bai was crying and laughing, like a little madman, and April supported her to prevent her from falling to the ground. She lowered her voice very softly, like coaxing a child, and gently persuaded her: "Xia Bai, I'll send you back, just go back and sleep, okay?" ”
Xia Bai tilted her head to look at her, obviously a little dissatisfied with April's reaction, she grabbed April's arm hard, and snorted, "What I told you, you ...... Didn't you hear? I mean...... You can be with Gu Qingyan now, don't you ...... Not happy? ”
April was silent for a moment and said, "Xia Bai, I have a boyfriend." ”
As soon as these words came out, there was a moment of stagnation in the air.
Xia Bai was stunned, stretched out her hand to support her forehead, and after a moment of relief, she opened her eyes, and there was still half a bit of drunkenness in her eyes. She glanced at the quiet April on the side, and waved her hand weakly, "I'm a little dizzy, I'm going back to rest." ”
April didn't let go of the hand that was holding her, and said, "I'll send you back." ”
"No need."
Xia Bai slowly withdrew his hand, turned around and picked up the bag, and staggered forward.
April was not at ease, so she followed, and when she found out that Xia Bai was going to drive back by herself, she stepped forward and snatched her car keys with her bare hands, and said without refusal: "I'll send you back, I'll send you home." ”
Seeing that his palms were empty, Xia Bai glanced at the car keys in April's hand, bent his mouth, and did not object.
April stopped a taxi and helped Xia Bai up first, and then she sat next to Xia Bai and reported an address to the driver, and then she was speechless.
Xia Bai closed his eyes, his distant mountain-like eyebrows frowned slightly, obviously a little uncomfortable. April didn't pay attention at first, but later found that Xia Bai's face was pale and her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and she realized that something was wrong.
"Xia Bai, what's wrong with you? Is there something uncomfortable? ”
April looked at her with a panicked expression, because her anxious voice was a little out of tune.
Xia Bai covered his stomach and opened his mouth, his lips trembled a little, but it hurt so much that he couldn't say a word.
"Master, quick, turn around and go to the hospital." April hurriedly turned around and shouted at the driver.
When the driver saw that the situation behind him was not right, he hurriedly accelerated his speed, and the car rushed out like an arrow off the string.
A quarter of an hour later, the taxi drove to the hospital, and April hurriedly paid the fare and walked out with Xia Bai in his arms. At this time, Xia Bai was so painful that he couldn't walk, April couldn't, gritted his teeth, directly put Xia Bai on his back, and rushed into the hospital quickly.
By the time Xia Bai was pushed into the emergency room, April's hands and feet trembled and he didn't obey the call, his head was empty, and he couldn't think of anything.
She lowered her head woodenly, only to find that she was still holding Xia Bai's bag in her hand.
Because it was too hard, the pink bag was squeezed and deformed.
April's trembling hands tried to smooth out the wrinkles on the bag, but the more she panicked, the more her hands trembled, and the bag that had been beautiful and foreign became crumpled, like a child's crying face.
She stopped her movements abruptly, and her eyes fell to the ground in a daze.
The nurse who walked by beside her saw her dazed appearance, kindly comforted her a few words, and asked her to sit on the rest chair next to her.
After completely relieving herself, she took a heavy breath, hesitated for a while, and still took out her mobile phone to make a call to Gu Qingyan.
***
In the conference room, Gu Qingyan sat in the main seat, someone in front of him was professionally talking about the newly developed project, and the shimmer of the slide fell on the man's face, highlighting his long eyelashes and the structured bridge of his nose.
In the interlacing of yin and shadow, the man's eyebrows and eyes are deep, and his silent posture with his head bowed has a trace of trance-like gentleness. He stared silently at the number displayed on his phone, his long, white fingers stopping in mid-air.
He was focused, and the light of his phone illuminated his deep eyes extremely brightly, until the screen slowly dimmed, and the illusion under his eyes gradually dissipated.
Lin April, is that all you have to be patient?
He stared straight at the dark screen, a deep sense of loss welled up in his heart without warning, perhaps because his eyes were a little sour, he slowly closed his eyes.
And in an instant, the phone came back on without warning.
Gu Qingyan suddenly opened his eyes, and when his eyes swept to the familiar name, he suddenly stood up.
Squeak -
The friction of the chair against the floor produced an extremely harsh shrill sound.
Everyone invariably turned their attention to the expressionless man, and the people on the stage also stopped talking emotionally and shouted Mr. Gu.
Gu Qingyan glanced at everyone indifferently, and said slightly hoarsely: "I have something, today's seminar is canceled." ”
As soon as these words came out, there was a buzz of discussion in the crowd, and Gu Qingyan ignored everyone and walked out of the door resolutely. And the rest of the people left behind looked at each other, obviously not understanding how the president, who had always been conscientious, could temporarily leave the scene.
Gu Qingyan looked down at his phone as he walked out, the screen dimmed again, he waited for a while, and finally he was half silent when he sank into the sea.
He couldn't help but think that Lin April had never taken the initiative to call him, something must have happened.
Do you want to go back in time?
He glanced up at the white clouds floating in the sky, and after thinking for a few seconds, his lips pursed into a line, and his fingers moved slightly, and he dialed the phone back.
The phone was quickly picked up, Gu Qingyan put the phone to her ear, closed her eyes and waited for a while, the phone was quiet, as if there was no one.
He frowned, his lips squirmed up and down twice, and he spat out two words succinctly and neatly.
"Speak."
“…… Xia Bai had an accident, and she was in the First People's Hospital. The voice was rapid, obviously a little flustered.
Gu Qingyan's eyes flashed, "Okay, I know, I'll come over right away." ”
After saying that, he paused and added, "Stay there and don't move, I'll come to you." ”
"Okay."
***
April put down the phone, and the heart that had been carrying it finally fell to the ground. For some reason, there seemed to be a magic in his voice that could relax her mind.
She just had to wait here obediently, and when he came, she would be at ease.
Because as soon as the spirit is tense and relaxed, people are easy to get tired, and April didn't know when Gu Qingyan would arrive, so he leaned against the wall on the right side and squinted for a while.
She didn't dare to sleep too hard, for fear that Gu Qingyan wouldn't find her when she came, so she leaned her head against the corner of the wall, and when her eyelids were about to close, she pinched her thighs hard.
But Rao was like this, and after a toss, she still closed her eyes in a daze.
When Gu Qingyan came, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, and he went to the emergency room under the leadership of the nurse, and saw April sitting in a chair at a glance.
Even though April was huddled in the corner, he couldn't even see her face, but he had a strong instinct in his heart, and it was her.
At that time, April began to doze off again, her head was like a chicken pecking rice, and she nodded her head for a while, even so, she did not forget to hold a bag tightly in her hand.
As if I was afraid of being robbed by others.
Gu Qingyan froze in place for more than ten seconds, took a light step, and quietly walked in front of April.
When he got closer, he could clearly see her face, and after a year of not seeing her, she seemed to be thinner, her hair was a little yellow, and the corners of her eyes were also slightly wrinkled, obviously not paying attention to maintenance.
is a thirty-year-old woman, why do you still look like a dirt bun, and you don't know how to dress up at all.
He thought meanly, his lips opened slightly, and when he was about to wake her up, he coldly, April hit his head directly on his leg, and let him swallow the words that were about to come to his mouth.
He lowered his eyes and looked at the woman's hair in a daze, and his figure froze in this second.
April obviously didn't come to her senses either, she reached out and rubbed her forehead, a little confused that she had bumped into something. She looked up in confusion, and her unfocused gaze met the man's face.
She obviously didn't recognize him yet, she blinked her eyelids slowly, and then put her eyes on his face, and when the vision gradually became clear, she was excited, and the sleepiness on her body was swept away.
She stood up abruptly, bowed her head, and said, "You're here." ”
