Chapter 290: Chapter 290 His Anger_1
At this time, it was still dark outside. Only one lamp was turned on in the hospital bed, casting dim shadows about the room.
The scene gave off an illusion, almost as if one was still in a dream.
I told myself that I must be having a nightmare.
I quickly closed my eyes.
After a while, when I opened my eyes again, Gu Yuanzhou was still by my side!
Staring at me with a pair of deep, dark eyes.
I bit my tongue…
A sharp wave of pain surged within me!
This proved that I was not dreaming, this man was really beside me!
Perhaps my actions had irritated him; he reached out and gripped my chin.
“What’s with that look? You don’t want to see me?”
I glared at him angrily,
“Gu Yuanzhou, you did this to me, and yet you have the nerve to say such things!”
Before, Wenya had warned me that Gu Yuanzhou might come to silence me, I hadn’t expected him to arrive so soon.
“Why don’t you reflect upon yourself? It’s your attempt to harm me that led to this predicament!”
“I harm you? Gu Yuanzhou, how have I harmed you?”
“Weren’t you going to expose my secrets with that Song’s kid in a press conference?”
He smirked, his gaze mocking me.
At this moment, his eyes also appeared very dark.
“Ha… Expose your secrets? Well, you would need to have secrets for that. If you were clean and righteous, why would you ever fear being blackened by others?”
Gu Yuanzhou let go of my chin and looked at me indifferently,
“Did Song Zexi tell you that I was the one behind all those things?”
“If it wasn’t you, why would you be afraid? If you’re innocent, why should you be afraid of being accused?”
I looked at him with a disdainful gaze.
Gu Yuanzhou looked at me calmly,
“You don’t understand anything!”
“I don’t understand? I don’t understand you at all! Gu Yuanzhou, I have never understood you! Hmph…”
I gave a bitter smile, too tired to contend any further.
I decided to lay out all my cards.
The past, the present, the once…
Because I knew, some things if not said now, might never have a chance to be spoken out loud.
I narrowly escaped this time.
Next time, I might end up dead at Ayu’s hands.
I coughed lightly.
“Gu Yuanzhou! Do you know? If I could go back, I would never choose to meet you! I regret it so much, why did I ever meet you?”
The color on Gu Yuanzhou’s face faded slightly.
His lips were pursed tightly, his eyes flashing a dark light.
“Really? Where did I give you a misconception? Are you denying all our past feelings?”
“Ha, our feelings? Did we ever have any feelings? You never loved me, Gu Yuanzhou. From the beginning, you used me as a tool. You used me to gain my uncle’s trust. You got money from him, and then used me as a stepping stone to rise.”
Gu Yuanzhou looked at me, his eyes filled with gloom,
“In your eyes, am I really that despicable?”
“Aren’t you? Gu Yuanzhou, ask your heart! Without me! Without the financial support from my uncle, would you have reached where you are today? Would you have Zhenyi Company?”
“Nonsense, of course I would! Do you think the Song family properties amount to something?”
Even now, Gu Yuanzhou was incredibly arrogant, looking down on people.
I also had no reservations in exposing him.
“The Song family isn’t worth much, neither are you. Without the Song family, you wouldn’t have Zhenyi, you’d have nothing, you’d be nothing.”
Maybe my words infuriated Gu Yuanzhou.
He gripped my chin again.
“Before you speak next time, think carefully. Think about what you’re saying before you say it, don’t you think every time you provoke me, I’ll forgive you!”
“You forgive me? Ridiculous! When did I ever need your forgiveness!”
“Do you believe that I can kill you now?”
The angry man’s grip was very heavy.
He gripped my chin tightly, almost crushing my jawbone.
The pain was unbearable…
I didn’t struggle, I just quietly turned on the video recording function on my phone, recording the whole scene.
If I really died, he wouldn’t be able to escape the blame.
However, he quickly noticed my little move, grabbed my phone away, and turned it off.
“You’re still playing these tricks with me?”
He looked at me contemptuously.
“Gu Yuanzhou!! You’ve gone too far, give me back my phone!”
He ignored me and said to the nurse outside the door,
“By the way, I want to facilitate her discharge procedures!”
The nurse quickly explained,
“Sir, I’m afraid that’s not possible. Her condition is very critical. Without the handwritten consent of relatives, no one can take her out of the hospital.”
“I’m her husband, is that alright?”
“Oh, that works… But, our hospital still advises against transferring the patient due to the risk. Accidents can easily happen during the transfer!”
Since a family member came to transfer the patient, the hospital had no right to stop him.
But Gu Yuanzhou was just my husband from a previous life, in this life, he had nothing to do with me.
I immediately said to the nurse,
“Don’t listen to his nonsense. I don’t know him, we have no relationship.”
I knew very well that if Gu Yuanzhou transferred me out of the hospital,
Then I may face death right away.
Hearing my words, the nurse was stunned.
She looked at Gu Yuanzhou,
“Sir, the lady here says she doesn’t know you, in this situation…”
Gu Yuanzhou took out a bank card,
“All her medical expenses will be paid by me!”
“Alright, alright!”
The nurse quickly brought the card machine and swiped his card.
Then, he took out a marriage certificate and showed it to the nurse,
“She is indeed my wife. It’s just that she injured her brain in the car accident and has some amnesia. It’s normal for her not to recognize her own husband. She’ll recover after some time.”
The nurse picked up the marriage certificate and looked at me, then at Gu Yuanzhou.
At this time, my face and head were all bandaged, I really didn’t know what the nurse was looking at.
Maybe it was the bank card that did the trick, in the nurse’s eyes, if a man was willing to spend so much money on a woman, then she must definitely be his wife.
So she allowed it,
“Alright, sir, just sign here.”
“No, I won’t be discharged…”
I lodged a strong protest, but it seemed that no one cared about my opinion.
After Gu Yuanzhou signed, he called over a doctor, who injected some medicine into me. Soon I felt drowsy and fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was the next morning.
When I opened my eyes, I saw birds chirping in the yard.
That wasn’t a sound heard in hospitals, or in cities.
When I looked around, that’s when I realized… I recognized this place…
