C21 Theory of Suffering
After a long time, Mu Yi recalled what had happened a few days ago and the words that Qin Zhiwei had said. He could not help but feel angry.
Clenching his fists, he viciously punched at Gu Qingli's door. The flames in his heart seemed to grow stronger as he turned and left the villa.
Gu Qingli was frightened by this loud sound until he violently trembled. He had expected Mu Yi to be angry, but there was nothing he could do. He could only silently shed tears in his heart.
In the afternoon, Gu Qingchen called to say that Dr. Wight was going to perform another operation on Gu Lannan. Gu Qingchen hung up the phone and rushed to the hospital.
Arriving at the hospital, Gu Qingli's depressed heart eased a lot when she saw that Gu Mulan looked much better than before.
"Girl, Dad's going to be fine soon. Dr. Wight said I have another operation today, and if I recuperate well, I'll be out of the hospital soon."
With that, Gu Mulan picked up his phone and was about to play games.
When Gu Qingli saw that, she snatched the phone away from Gu Mulan and protested coquettishly, "We're going to have surgery soon, still playing!"
With that, he glanced at Gu Lang Nan, and his words were filled with anger towards Gu Lang Nan.
"Yeah, old man, what time is it? You're still in the mood to play games."
Gu Qingchen pointed at Gu Langnan and spoke up for Gu Qingli.
"You two siblings are practically breathing in the same breath. Together, you two have bullied me, this rotten old man. Back then, I pulled you two up by taking a piss."
Pretending to be wronged, Gu Mulan slapped both of his hands on the bed and became unhappy.
Gu Qingli and Gu Qingchen looked at each other and smiled. Indeed, ever since they were young, they had never lacked mutual understanding!
"Stupid old man, you're going to have an operation soon. Don't be nervous, I know you want to use your phone because you're nervous, but you can't do it now, you have to conserve your energy, and when you recover, the two of us will go black together."
Gu Qingchen walked over to Gu Mulan's bedside and comforted him softly.
Hearing Gu Qingchen's words, Gu Mulan furrowed his brows slightly. With an embarrassed expression on his face, he explained unwillingly, "I'm not nervous, I just want to play."
As soon as he had finished speaking, Dr. Wyatt came in and examined Mullaney's condition to see if he was suitable for surgery.
Seeing his father looking so lively again, Gu Qingli felt a surge of emotions in his heart. Luckily, there was still Mu Yi Chen! Only then would his father find a good doctor, and the family would no longer have to worry about the medical expenses.
However, even though Mu Yi Chen's fist had heavily smashed against her door, her heart seemed to have suffered a heavy blow.
"Isn't it because I went too far? I shouldn't have vented my anger at Mu Yi Chen just because of Qin Zhiwei today."
She secretly thought in her heart that she would feel ashamed to face Mu Yi Chen.
Lifting his head, Gu Qingli felt more and more sorry that he had treated Mu Yizhen so coldly this morning, and had even made him so angry.
Even if Qin Zhiwei had threatened him not to get too close to Mu Yi Chen, she still wouldn't have stopped speaking to him. After all, the two of them were only involved with the child and wouldn't have truly happened.
And what Qin Zhiwei was worried about, would never happen!
Thinking of this, she felt a lot more at ease, but she didn't know why, but she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
After a thorough examination, the doctor gave Kulanan an OK gesture with his hand, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face. Gu Qingli knew that his father was in good health, and hoped that after the surgery, his father would be completely fine.
Gu Qingchen saw that Li was not in a good mood and asked her to go home first. Dr. Wyatt's medical skills were excellent, so she didn't have to worry.
Gu Qingli hadn't eaten lunch, so she was feeling a bit dizzy looking at things. For the sake of her child, she stopped trying to be brave and agreed to let Gu Qingchen return to the villa first.
"Bro, if anything happens, immediately call me. I'll be fine after a short rest. You have to watch out for dad."
Gu Qingli had warned Gu Qingchen over and over before she left, but she was more or less worried. However, she really couldn't hold on any longer. Seeing that Han Yunxi was in good condition, she felt at ease and returned to the villa.
Too many things had happened today. First, it was Qin Zhiwei who came to cause trouble, and then, it was Mu Yi who had caused a small disturbance. Noon had not passed, and in the afternoon, she had hurried over to the hospital to look after Jiannan.
Back at the villa, Gu Qingli ate a few random meals and then ran upstairs to sleep.
Inside the hospital, Gu Mulan had already been sent to the operating room. Gu Qingchen waited anxiously outside the door.
Time ticked by, and though he felt that Mr. Wight's medical skills were trustworthy, he could not help but worry.
The operation went well. Originally, it only took him two and a half hours to complete the operation.
The moment the lights in the operation room dimmed, the doctor walked out with a confident smile on his face and nodded at Gu Qingchen with a smile.
Seeing the doctor's reaction, Gu Qingchen heaved a long sigh of relief. He immediately picked up his phone and called Gu Qingli.
"Dad's operation was very successful. You don't need to come today, just come back tomorrow morning. The sky has already darkened, I won't be able to rest at ease if you come alone."
Gu Qingchen patiently arranged for Gu Qingli to arrive.
Gu Qingli was still sleeping when she was woken up by Gu Qingchen. When she heard that her father's operation had gone smoothly, she immediately stood up in excitement. Hearing Gu Qingchen say this, she relaxed.
Since she wasn't in a hurry, she promised Gu Qing Chen that she would visit her father tomorrow morning.
Gu Qingli's sleepiness had been disturbed by Aunt Zhao, so he didn't want to continue sleeping like this. Thinking about how he had disturbed Mu Yi Chen's meal at noon today, he didn't eat. Hearing Aunt Zhao's words, Mu Yi Chen also didn't eat.
In her heart, she was grateful towards Mu Yi Chen for helping Gu Lang Nan. In addition, she felt a little ashamed of Mu Yi Chen, so she decided to personally cook to reward Mu Yi Chen.
When she thought of this, her interest was piqued, and she quickly got up to cook.
Seeing Gu Qingli come into the kitchen, Aunt Zhao guessed that she felt bad about what happened at noon, so she very happily gave the kitchen to her.
Gu Qingli was fumbling around the kitchen by herself. After living with Muyi for such a long time, she had some understanding of his preferences.
Potato, beef, broccoli, fish... As she thought about it, she was shocked by herself. The current her was actually able to clearly understand his preferences, which confused her a little.
She had grown up to the point that she couldn't even feel what she liked to eat, yet she was actually able to clearly understand Mu Yi Chen's preferences. Although it was somewhat inconceivable, it wasn't a bad thing, at least it could be used right now.
She had a big belly and two babies in her womb, so her movements couldn't help but be somewhat sluggish.
He had originally thought that by the time he finished cooking, Mu Yi Chen would have already returned.
But now that the food had been placed in front of him, he still hadn't seen Mu Yi's shadow.
Blue Flowers Stir-fried Meat, Potato Beef, Black Fish Soup... Seeing the table full of food that Mu Yi loved to eat, Gu Qingli felt a wave of warmth in his heart.
He raised his head and looked at the time. It was already eight in the evening. Normally, they would have already eaten dinner at this time. Would they be angry with him and refuse to return to the villa tonight?
Thinking about that, he felt a bit disappointed.
Uncle Zhao couldn't bear to see Gu Qingli wait so bitterly for the Young Master, so he made a phone call to inquire about the Young Master's condition.
After the call connected, Mu Yi's slightly tired voice sounded, "Hello, Uncle Zhao. I have a lot of work to do at the company tonight, so I'll have to go handle it. I might be able to return very late."
Originally, he wanted to tell Uncle Zhao to take good care of Qingli, but when he remembered that she had gone to see Qin Zhiwei today, Mu Yi Chen frowned, unwilling to ignore her.
"But …" "En, alright, everything is fine now. Young master, you should hurry back to the villa after you finish your work."
Uncle Zhao wanted to say that Gu Qingli had prepared a meal at home and was waiting for him, but he was afraid of disturbing Mu Yi Chen's work, so he swallowed his words back.
Gu Qingli lay quietly on the sofa, but she had unknowingly fallen asleep.
Late at night, Mu Yi Chen finished his company's work and returned to the villa at 11 PM.
As he walked into the living room, he could smell the fragrance of food wafting in and out of the room. As he walked into the living room, the smell of food wafted in and out of the living room.
Squatting in front of Gu Qingli and looking at her white and gentle face, Mu Yi Chen couldn't help but gently caress it a few times. Her face was as smooth as a newborn baby's. The moment he touched her face, Mu Yi Chen's heart couldn't help but lightly tremble.
Perhaps because Gu Qingli felt someone touching her, her long eyelashes twitched a few times, and she woke up rubbing her sleepy eyes.
Opening her eyes and seeing Mu Yi Chen, she instantly became excited.
"You're back!"
The corner of his mouth slightly raised, his face had a slight smile, and his voice was gentle as he spoke.
"Yes."
Mu Yi Chen gently nodded his head, his face expressionless.
Gu Qingli looked at the dishes on the table, which had already turned cold, and said, "But the food is already cold."
"I'm fine."
After lightly saying this word, the light in his eyes dimmed and Mu Yi's sunken face revealed a difficult expression.
"Wait a moment, I'll take it to the kitchen to warm up."
Seeing Mu Yi's sullen expression, Gu Qingli quickly spoke up.
"Wait, why is Qin Zhiwei looking for you today?"
Gu Qingli was about to carry the dish when she was suddenly asked by Mu Yi Chen. Her heart thumped, and she was stunned, not knowing how to respond.
She didn't say anything and only stood there quietly, her back facing Mu Yi Chen. Both sides couldn't see each other's expression.
All of a sudden, he felt that the atmosphere in the living room was so heavy that it was suffocating.
"I'm asking you a question!"
After a long time, Mu Yi Chen broke the silence, speaking with a hint of anger in his voice.
Gu Qingli remained silent and didn't say anything else.
Mu Yi Chen was completely enraged. He no longer cared about her and angrily left the villa.
It was already so late at night, and Gu Qingli felt uneasy watching him leave the villa. However, more than that, she felt aggrieved!
This indescribable feeling of suffering tore at Gu Qingli's heart. This sort of pain was unbearable to her!
