C6 Face to face

Gu Jing gave Meng Yunhan's hair a light kiss before withdrawing her hand from her waist.

"Alright, let's go. I'll send you back."

Soon after, Gu Jing pulled Meng Yunhan's slightly cold little hand and got in the car one after the other. Once he got in, Meng Yunhan's gaze fell on Gu Jing and couldn't move away as she had never looked at him from the side so seriously and carefully before.

It was already late in the night, and the yellow street lamp by the side of the road had already been lit. From time to time, a halo of light would shine on Gu Jing's face, making his exquisite facial features even more captivating.

Gu Jing seemed to have realized that there was a blazing gaze staring at him from beside him, thus, he waited for the traffic light at the intersection to arrive. He turned his head to look at Meng Yunhan, and when their gazes met, he could not help but reveal a smile, and reached out to ruffle Meng Yunhan's hair, and asked: "What's wrong? Why do you keep looking at me like this? "

Towards Gu Jing's sudden question, Meng Yunhan did not know how to answer. She could only smile and shake her head, shifting her gaze to the front and said: "Nothing much, I just think that you're very good-looking like this."

Meng Yunhan's praises, without any warning, made Gu Jing secretly rejoice, and her face even revealed a trace of shyness. Gu Jing really did not know what to say, and the hand he extended out in the air, seemed to be out of shyness, finally clenched into a fist and shook twice before letting it go.

Gu Jing saw that Meng Yunhan was no longer looking at him, he was holding onto the steering wheel with one hand, releasing one of her hands to wrap around Meng Yunhan's ten fingers. All this time, Meng Yunhan did not say a single word, but the hands that they were tightly holding onto each other never relaxed.

"Alright, I'm here. Be careful when you go back to drive." As Meng Yunhan unbuckled her seat belt, she did not forget to instruct Gu Jing.

"I'll send you up."

"No need, I'm already downstairs. You must be tired after accompanying me for the whole day. Go back and rest early." Meng Yunhan turned to look at Gu Jing, and rejected his suggestion to send his up. No matter what the reason was, Meng Yunhan only wanted to go up by herself right now, because she knew that her father was definitely sitting in the living room, anxiously waiting for her.

In the end, Gu Jing compromised and nodded his head. He reached out and pulled Meng Yunhan into his embrace, "Go back and rest well, don't let your thoughts run wild, the matters of the hospital will definitely be resolved, I will also accompany you."

"Yes, I know."

Gu Jing gave Meng Yunhan a light kiss on the forehead, and then, reluctantly let her off. He watched her enter the building, and in the end, disappeared from his sight.

Just as Gu Jing was about to start the car and return home, the phone rang again. It was still the unfamiliar number, and after thinking for a few seconds, Gu Jing answered the phone.

"Hey …"

The familiar voice came from the other side of the phone, but Yi Yuanze only sneered, and did not speak. His silence made Gu Jing, who was on the other side of the phone, unable to hold himself back.

"I know it's you. Tell me, why did you call me?" Gu Jing spoke straightforwardly, he knew that the person who was talking on the other side of the phone right now was Yi Yuanze, other than him, no one else would do such a thing.

"Since you knew it was me from the start, why didn't you pick me up when I called you in the afternoon?" Yi Yuanze did not answer Gu Jing's question. Instead, he asked his about the reason why refused to listen to his phone call in the afternoon.

Gu Jing suddenly sneered, and boasted in a slightly boastful manner: "In the afternoon, I accompanied Hanhan and did not have the time to listen to his phone call. Compared to the phone call, being cold is more important."

Hearing Gu Jing's flaunting, Yi Yuanze felt very uncomfortable in his heart. Even though his face was extremely ugly, his tone of voice was still the same as before, "Really? "In that case, I shall wait and see whether or not you can protect the most important person to you …"

"What do you mean?"

Yi Yuanze succeeded in raising Gu Jing's interest, but he did not intend to continue speaking, "We haven't seen each other for so many years, come out to meet …"

"I don't think any of us want to see each other, so it's better not to see each other." Gu Jing did not want to see Yi Yuanze from the bottom of his heart, because once he saw Yi Yuanze, the lie from the past would always surface in his mind.

"What is it? You stole my most beloved woman, and now you don't even dare to see me anymore? " Yi Yuanze did not use methods to goad her, but this was the truest thought in his heart.

On the other side of the phone was Gu Jing's long silence. He seemed to be unable to find an excuse to refute what Yi Yuanze had said, but evading seemed to be impossible, even if he did not go see Yi Yuanze today, he would still have to face the days to come.

"Okay, say it. Where is it?"

"In the school field."

"Alright, I'll see you later." With that, Gu Jing decisively hung up the phone, he glanced at Meng Yunhan's window and then drove away.

It was obvious that that was her home, but Meng Yunhan did not dare enter it. She did not know how she should face her father, nor did she know how to explain everything that had happened to Yi Yuanze when she saw him today.

The door was suddenly opened by someone from the inside. Meng Zhiwen walked out, and when he looked at his daughter who was standing in front of the door, he was very surprised. What are you doing in the doorway? "Come on in."

Originally, Meng Zhiwen had planned to go downstairs to see if Meng Yunhan had returned home, but he hadn't expected to see her here.

She followed her father and entered the house one after the other. At the moment, Meng Yunhan had too many questions she wanted to ask her father, but she didn't know which one she should start from.

"Today …"

"Do you know who I'm going to see today?" Meng Yunhan rushed in front of her father and asked.

Hearing that, Meng Zhiwen froze for a few seconds, then walked to the sofa and sat down, smiling as he patted on the sofa beside him and said: "Sit down first."

Father's evasion made Meng Yunhan realize that Father knew, that the person he was going to meet in his place today was Yi Yuanze. "Why? If you know, why do you still want me to go? "

Meng Zhiwen's smile disappeared, he looked at Meng Yunhan's moist eyes and slowly opened his mouth, saying: "Because only if I let you replace the hospital, would he meet, and I have no other choice. Xiao Han, he is only willing to talk to you."

"So you're using me?"

"That's not a use." Meng Zhiwen stood up excitedly, and quickly walked to Meng Yunhan. He lightly held her shoulders, and continued to explain: "Little Han, you are also a part of the hospital, and now that the hospital is in danger, you have the responsibility of helping it out, so this isn't being used."

Meng Yunhan continuously shook her head. She did not approve of what her father had said, nor did she want to understand the reason his father had given her.

"Is the hospital that important to you? It's so important that you can use me. Can you treat me as a bargaining chip? Dad, I'm your daughter, how can you treat me like this? " Meng Yunhan lost control of her emotions and roared at Meng Zhiwen.

"Xiao Han, you are my most precious daughter. Nothing is more important than you …" Meng Zhiwen tried his best to explain, but Meng Yunhan was not listening to his. She had already assumed that his father's future was more important than his own.

Meng Yunhan suddenly laughed coldly. She reached out and knocked off her father's hand that was on her shoulder, and taunted him: "You're wrong. In your heart, there's nothing more important.

"Don't mention your mom …" Meng Zhiwen's mood suddenly became serious. Ever since Meng Yunhan's mother passed away, none of them mentioned that matter anymore. It seemed to have become a taboo between them, and it was even more so an eternal pain.

At this time, the more her father forbid her from speaking, the more Meng Yunhan wanted to say it, "Why can't I mention it, it was because you only cared about your career and the matters of the hospital, even when she died, you were still on the operation table. After so many years, even though you saved so many people, you still haven't saved her from the end, and you haven't even seen her again …"

Meng Yunhan spoke out all the anger she had felt all these years with all her might. Even if her heart was in pain, right now, she just wanted to say it.

"It's not like that …" Meng Zhiwen denied what Meng Yunhan had just said, and the events of that year could still be clearly seen in Meng Zhiwen's mind.

"This is the truth. You were the one that didn't dare to face it, you were the one who was running away from it all the time, nothing is more important than your career or your hospital. It doesn't matter if it's me or your mother …"

"I told you not to say anymore …" This was the first time her father had slapped her. Before, no matter what she had done wrong, her father had never hit her before, but today, it was because of these words that caused her to receive a loud and clear slap on the face for the first time.

Meng Zhiwen looked at his hand that was floating in the air, and then looked at Meng Yunhan's shocked expression, and was at a loss of what to do for a moment.

"Little Cold …"

Meng Yunhan turned around and ran into her own room. After locking the door, she squatted down with her back against the door and hugged it as she cried bitterly. Meng Yunhan had never thought that her father would beat her up.

Hearing the crying sounds that came from Meng Yunhan's room, Meng Zhiwen who was standing in the living room helplessly sat on the sofa.

This was the first time Meng Zhiwen had hit his precious daughter, and even he himself did not know what had happened to him just now, why would he hit her. Even when Meng Yunhan was extremely opposed to him arranging for her to leave the country, Meng Zhiwen did not beat her up.

In the living room was the figure of a father who was regretting her decision, but in the bedroom, Meng Yunhan was hugging herself tightly and crying loudly. In the dark room, the sadness and despair in Meng Yunhan's heart was magnified infinitely.

The rain outside the window had long since stopped, but the raindrops had not dispersed. As a result, when she looked out, she could only see the bright city from far, and not clearly, just like how Meng Yunhan was in her heart right now. She could not see the people around her clearly, even the people she was closest to could not see through.

When Yi Yuanze went to school, Gu Jing had still not come, but because of the rain, the ground was still a bit wet, so he sat on the parallel bars and waited for Gu Jing. This kind of feeling made him feel like he was back in his student days, ever since Meng Yunhan and Gu Jing went overseas together, he had never come to school again.
