Chapter 194: Persuasion
"What if you don't give it?" Gu Shaoze glanced at him coldly and asked contemptuously.
The two confronted each other head-on, evenly matched, Si Qian sneered, "Three days, if I haven't seen Mr. Gu go to the hospital to donate bone marrow within three days, then I naturally have other ways." ”
"Something else?" Gu Shaoze snorted coldly, "You threaten me? ”
"Whether it's a threat or not, it's up to you how you choose!" Si Qian has completely let himself go, and he does not shy away from showing his ruthless side.
Gu Shaoze's eyes were cold, but the corners of his lips were raised, and he pulled the other party's collar and said coldly: "Si Qian, if you dare to touch Ji Xincheng again, even if it is a hair, none of you will think about it!" ”
Si Qian wanted to struggle, but Gu Shaoze didn't give him a chance, and pushed him back into his seat in disgust, and then turned around and left the teahouse.
Si Qian, who sat down in a daze, his clothes were messy, but he didn't reach out to smooth it, between his eyebrows, there were already clouds, he stared at a certain place for a long time, his eyes were empty for a long time, and suddenly he laughed, the laughter was low and dry, so that the clerks in the store who cared for this seat from afar shuddered......
Ji Xincheng learned that Gu Chang planned to be discharged from the hospital on the day she was discharged, and when Gu Shaoze went out to work on her front foot, she drove to the hospital by herself.
When he came to the hospital, he learned that Gu Chang's driver had already completed the discharge procedures for him and left, obviously Gu Chang was waiting for Ji Xincheng. Sure enough, when he saw her, Gu Chang asked, "Shaoze, is he unwilling to donate bone marrow?" ”
Ji Xincheng was surprised that Gu Chang knew about this, and did not say anything for a while.
"I listened to the nurses and doctors, and his matching results were very suitable." As he spoke, he lowered his head, as if helpless.
Ji Xincheng nodded at this time, "Someone called Shaoze before and told him about Uncle and Aunt Shang, Shaoze ...... It may take a little time. ”
She implicitly said that Gu Shaoze already knew about the previous events.
When Gu Chang heard this, his face was a little ugly, he didn't say anything, sighed after a long time, asked Ji Xincheng to go with him to say hello to Shang Xuan, and then sent him to Gu Shaoze's company.
Ji Xincheng didn't understand why Gu Chang didn't use a driver, but she still didn't ask after all.
Shang Xuan had already eaten breakfast at that time, sat on the bed and read a book, and saw the two of them enter the door and put the book down, "Uncle Gu, Xincheng." She saw that Gu Chang was no longer wearing a hospital gown, and couldn't help asking, "Uncle Gu, is this about to be discharged?" ”
She was in a good state of mind, and Gu Chang's face softened a lot when she saw her, "Yes, I'm liberated!" He spread his arms and said in a joking tone.
Shang Xuan also laughed, "Great, you should pay more attention to your health after you go out, so don't come here again." ”
Ji Xincheng asked about Shang Xuan's condition, and Shang Xuan said, "There is a new drug coming out, it is in the trial stage, and the response is relatively good in the past few days, so it should be possible to continue to treat with this medicine." ”
Gu Chang and Ji Xincheng glanced at each other, neither of them intended to reveal that the medicine Shang Xuan used was developed by extracting the bone marrow of his relatives.
After saying some words of encouragement, Gu Chang lingered and left Shang Xuan's ward.
"You're going with me to talk to Shaoze?" Gu Chang sat in Ji Xincheng's car, so said.
There was a deliberate expectation in his eyes, and he obviously pinned some hope on Ji Xincheng.
Ji Xincheng started the car, got on the road, and said: "Dad, in fact, I had an argument with him a few days ago because of this matter, if it wasn't for me to trick him into accompanying me to the hospital for prenatal checkups, he wouldn't come to do the matching, I don't want to force him anymore." ”
Gu Chang sat in the back seat, and after Ji Xincheng said this, he looked at the road in front of him wholeheartedly, without looking at the rearview mirror, and he didn't know what his reaction was, but he didn't hear Gu Chang say anything again after a long time.
Ji Xincheng sent people to the underground parking lot of Gu's Group, she didn't get out of the car, turned to Gu Chang and said, "Dad, Shang Xuan is my good friend, I will definitely not shirk what I can do for her, but Shaoze ......"
She saw that Gu Chang's expression was not without sadness, and she suddenly realized that the Gu Chang in front of her was very different from Gu Chang who made mistakes when she was young, at least the mental paths experienced by the two were absolutely different, and the Gu Chang in front of her was clearly old.
Ji Xincheng wanted to say a few words for Gu Shaoze, but he didn't say it after all.
Instead, he said, "That's his temper, you might as well talk to him patiently." ”
Gu Chang nodded, "I know, you pay attention to safety when driving." ”
Ji Xincheng responded, watched Gu Chang's figure disappear into the elevator, and sat for a moment before starting the car and leaving. In line with the idea that the matter of the father and son should be resolved by themselves, she did not give Gu Shaoze any other information.
Gu Chang's arrival seemed to be expected by Gu Shaoze, and his expression was cold, "I have thirty minutes left in the next meeting, what do you have to say briefly." ”
Gu Shaoze is indeed very busy, he has not sat down since he came to the company in the morning, and he is trying to take advantage of this time to deal with some less urgent documents. He sat down behind the large desk and looked up at his father, who was silent and just staring at him.
Gu Shaoze waited for a moment and then didn't see Gu Chang speak, and his tone was even colder, "Or do you just want to come to the company to have a look?" Then you can take care of yourself. ”
He didn't want to see his father, he was like that from childhood to adulthood.
Gu Chang didn't deliberately provoke his son's already little patience, and put down the cup after taking a sip of tea, "Shang Xuan's illness, I hope you can go to the hospital and help her." ”
Gu Shaoze lowered his head to read the document and didn't move, but the knuckles of his right fingers holding the pen were obviously tightened, and it took a while before he spoke, "Hope?" Should what you want come true? I'm not as dedicated as you, so let's find someone else! ”
There was sarcasm in his words, and the rest was indifference.
Gu Chang was silent, held back his anger, and tried his best to calm down before speaking: "You are still young and healthy, and smoking a little bone marrow does not have a big impact on you, but if you can save the lives of others, it should be regarded as a good deed with kindness, shouldn't it?" ”
Regarding his father's statement of interests, Gu Shaoze sneered, "Am I healthy? Do you really know? Surgery is risky, and how can you be sure that it won't have a big impact? He paused, put down the pen and raised his head, his expression became colder, and asked his father, "Dad, is it in your heart, if I really have something, compared to the life of this illegitimate daughter, do you think it doesn't matter?" ”
Gu Chang didn't expect his son to ask him this, of course he didn't think so, but he really didn't think about it from his son's standpoint, and he was angry for a while.
And Gu Shaoze's silence about his father seemed to have already been in his heart, "If a stranger needs my bone marrow today, I may not hesitate to donate, and I should set an example for my future children, and I don't have anything to say." But she is not a stranger, she is your illegitimate daughter, and she is a continuation of the sins you committed behind our family's back! I can do it without exposing you, but I can't convince myself to help you! ”
"You hate her so much?" Gu Chang had hardly seen his son in such hysterical anger, and he was vaguely shocked.
didn't think about it, Gu Shaoze then generously admitted, "Yes, why can't I hate her!" Ever since that woman disappeared, you haven't taken our home as a home, and I'm not doing anything right, and I'm thinking, maybe I'm not right not to be your son! Do you know how my childhood came about? If it weren't for An Zimo's parents, I don't know what kind of virtue I would have become now! You just give birth to me but don't raise me, if it's just your nature, it's just because you made a mistake with that woman and didn't dare to face your own family, so you innocently angered me and my mother! Shouldn't I hate? ”
Gu Chang gasped, he didn't realize his mistake when he was young, and he didn't blame himself for his family, but he never thought that his actions would have such a huge psychological impact on his young son, and fear and regret were intertwined in his heart for a long time, but it was just a sigh.
After many years, it is useless for him to say anything, but fortunately, his son has not been too implicated by himself and ruined his future.
"You're right, the reason why I have a heart for this child is because I want to atone for my sins."
After Gu Chang took a few deep breaths, he revealed his heart to his son for the first time, "Back then, I was afraid that the matter would be revealed, and Shang Xiaoyue's telling the truth would affect my reputation, and even ruin my family and career, at that moment, I really couldn't afford it." So I tried to convince her to give her monetary compensation and let her get rid of the child. I have already contacted the hospital and doctor for her, and she agreed, but she temporarily repented and insisted on giving birth to the child. I was fascinated for a while, so I sent people to look for her and imprisoned her, but when she relented, the child had been formed, and she drank fetal pills that caused a lot of bleeding, and the doctor said that the situation was not optimistic, and I only thought that the child was gone, so I transferred her to a hospital in another city and gave her compensation. But I didn't expect ......"
When he said this, he didn't seem to have the strength to think about it, he couldn't bend his shoulders, and he was ten years old in an instant, "I didn't expect her to give birth to the child in the end." Although she and this child have never been out again, but I still can't do it like nothing happened, at that time, your mother and I didn't have a good relationship, I know it has nothing to do with you, I shouldn't involve you because of the failure of married life, but every time I see you, I think of the child who has been formed, I know that this can only show that I am cowardly and not responsible, I owe you in this life, and I owe that child, you hate me and hate me, but at this moment, I really want to beg you to save her, only you can save her, She's an innocent ...... indeed."
In his father's statement, Gu Shaoze went from indifference to anger at the beginning, and then returned to calm after being surprised, with no expression on his face, but in fact, his heart was surging.
He got up from his chair and stood facing the floor-to-ceiling window with his hands in his pockets, at least for this moment, he didn't want to face such a father.
"You should atone for my sins, just this once, okay?" Gu Chang immediately got up.
Gu Shaoze saw his voice approaching, turned around, and realized that he was about to kneel down to him.
"What are you doing here?" Gu Shaoze turned sideways to the side, helped Gu Chang up with one hand, and didn't let go of his hand until he stood up straight, and said calmly, "If the person lying in the hospital today is me, will you also kneel down and beg others for me?" ”
Gu Chang said without hesitation, "Of course I will!" ”
He was so sure that it was so natural that Gu Shaoze was stunned for a moment.
Gu Shaoze thought that there would probably be no chance of reconciliation between him and his father in this life, he was mentally prepared, but at this moment, Gu Chang in front of him seemed to let him see what a normal father should look like.
So what about him, at this moment, should he also be like a son?
Gu Shaoze asked himself like this in his heart, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
Gu Chang spoke again in Gu Shaoze's silence, "You are not only the heir of the group, but also the proudest son of my Gu Chang in his life, if it were you, it would not be a pity to exchange my life, let alone kneel down and beg for someone." The child in the hospital, I just want to be able to compensate her as much as I can. ”
Gu Shaoze looked at the father figure who was completely different from the past, and there were many feelings in his heart, but his face was still as cold as ice, "I will donate bone marrow, just to do good deeds for my children in the future, not for you, you will atone for your sins." ”
Despite this, Gu Chang was already overjoyed, and he responded in a row.
Like a normal father, Gu Chang is also like a normal old man, Gu Shaoze's mood has changed, and he suddenly realized that he seems to have not seen him so seriously at close range for a long time, he is indeed not as young and vigorous as he remembers, and his temples are obvious day by day, he thinks that his children will grow up in the future, if he also blames his father in old age because of his mistakes when he was young, how will he feel at that time.
Gu Shaoze let out a long sigh, and finally said to Gu Chang: "If there is nothing else, I will let someone send you back, and my mother will ask me where you have been in the past few days." ”
Gu Chang's hospitalization was deliberately hidden from Tong Siya, because he didn't even have the driver with him.
Gu Chang nodded and said, "Don't you still have a meeting in a while?" Let the driver give me a ride. ”
Gu Shaoze originally planned to personally send him back to the house, but he didn't insist at this time, and dialed the internal line to ask the assistant to contact the driver.
Sending Gu Chang away, Gu Shaoze called Ji Xincheng, if she knew that he promised to donate bone marrow, she would probably be very happy, but Ji Xincheng's phone never got through.
After several calls in a row, there was no answer, and then it went directly to voicemail.
"If I haven't seen Mr. Gu go to the hospital to donate bone marrow within three days, then I naturally have other ways."
Gu Shaoze thought of Si Qian's words, his eyebrows jumped secretly, and he quickly contacted Tang Tang and asked her if she knew Ji Xincheng's location, Tang Tang said that Ji Xincheng had not contacted her in the past two days, and she was in their studio at the moment, and Ji Xincheng was not there.
Gu Shaoze immediately drove home, and Ji Xincheng was not seen at home, and he had already contacted the hospital, but there was no news of her.
And Ji Xincheng's mobile phone still can't be connected.
