C14 Keep It up

After getting a positive answer from Qin Yuan, Hu Mei returned to the ward with a smile on her face. Seeing that Gu Huainan was still sleeping soundly, she stepped forward and held his hand.

"Huainan, you finally have hope for recovery. "I've always regretted not being able to send you to the hospital in time for that night because I was afraid of setting you on fire."

Hu Mei said softly as she held Gu Yinan's slightly cold hand. Tears started to appear in her eyes.

"It's all because of me. I'm afraid of nothing. Even though I called, I still harmed you, making you unconscious for so long! "Also, when you were in a car accident, why would I pull you and jump into the river? I forgot that you can't swim!"

The more Hu Mei said, the more she felt sad. In her heart, it was all because of her that Gu Yi Nan had become like this. She had always felt guilty about this matter.

Now that she finally heard that he had a chance to recover, the worry in Hu Mei's heart dropped to the ground.

A few tears fell onto the back of Gu Huainan's hand, causing his palm to twitch slightly.

Was she actually crying?

Gu Yinan's heart shook. His anxious heart also calmed down at this moment. He closed his eyes and listened to Hu Mei nagging about the pressure during this period of time. He only pretended to be asleep without making a sound.

Since he had already decided not to reveal his recovery, he couldn't afford to have any flaws in front of anyone.

He could not let anyone know of his situation except his brothers.

Therefore, even if he discovered that Hu Mei was crying and felt very sorry for her, he had to endure it and not let her find out.

I'm sorry, but I can only hide it from you.

Since Gu Huainan's injuries were relatively light, Qin Yuan quickly checked him out and told him to go home to recuperate.

For the next few days, Gu Huainan slept all day. He was already injured, so Hu Mei wouldn't suspect anything even if he slept all day.

However, as time passed, Gu Huainan couldn't take it anymore. He began to gradually try to get along with Hu Mei, trying his best to return to a state where he was not fully recovered.

Isn't it just acting a bit more gentle? What's so difficult about that?

Moreover, he was already used to sleeping with Hu Mei at night. The warmth of his embrace made him a little lustful. He didn't want to let go.

"Fox sis, can you sleep with me? I'm scared."

It was another thunderstorm. Gu Huainan hugged the huge pillow in his hands and looked pitifully at Hu Mei.

His eyes were as soft as ever, making Hu Mei unable to reject him. Furthermore, Hu Mei knew that he was most afraid of a thunderstorm and naturally would not have the heart to let him face such darkness alone.

After hugging Hu Mei, Gu Yinan let out a sigh of relief.

It was still a familiar scent, a feeling that caused people to be infatuated with him. These past few months of being together, it was as if he had consumed drugs and couldn't let her go …

The night was quiet.

"Pah!"

A clear and melodious voice rang out, causing the subordinates of Gu Jingjie to secretly shake their heads.

This was already the boss' fifth teacup that he had broken that day. The fact that he hadn't gotten rid of Gu Huainan made him in a very bad mood.

Even though the floor was covered in glass fragments, Gu Jingjie still didn't feel the slightest bit of venting.

"He actually didn't die. He still survived." Brother, it's really not easy for me to kill your child! "

Gu Jingjie said in a low voice as he bit his lower lip, his smile especially sinister.

He had tried to kill Gu Huainan time and time again, but he still managed to escape from the trap. For the first time, Gu Jingjie smelled a hint of danger.

Could it be that he was destined to fall into the hands of this person?

No, the Gu family was his, everything was his. Gu Huainan had to die!

"Tell me, how is he right now?" Annoyed, Gu Jingjie pushed away the documents on the table. He looked at his underlings and asked in a cold voice.

Hearing Gu Jingjie's question, the subordinate immediately became quick-witted and stood up, "Gu Huainan hasn't recovered from his illness. He's still a fool. Our people are monitoring that he hasn't changed much from what he used to be. "

"Or an idiot? It's hard to tell if he's really dumb, right? "

Gu Jingjie coldly snorted and ordered his underlings, "Continue monitoring him. If there's any movement, there's no need to be polite. Attack him directly!"

The underling hurriedly nodded his head. Gu Jingjie's heart was agitated, so he waved him away.

It was a sunny day. Gu Huainan was bored to death as he sat on the sofa watching TV. Two big fat bears were arguing with each other, making him extremely bored. As for Hu Mei, she was on the balcony, drying her recently washed clothes.

Although Qin Yuan said that it was possible for Gu Huainan to recover, he was still a patient.

So now, no matter how unhappy Gu Yinan was, he had to continue lying on the sofa and pretend to be lost in thought while watching TV. Occasionally, when Hu Mei's gaze swept over him, he would laugh out loud.

"How tiresome!"

When Gu Dong's message reached his cell phone, it vibrated. He immediately looked at his phone and sent a message to Gu Dong with his finger on his back.

Making a brainy person pretend to be an idiot to act innocent could be said to be the biggest punishment for Gu Huainan's entire life!

However, watching Hu Mei's petite figure on the balcony, drying her clothes and packing her things, Gu Huainan felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart.

He hadn't remembered this feeling of being taken care of for a long time.

"Huainan, it's almost noon. Do you want something to eat?"

Hu Mei's voice came from afar, interrupting Gu Huainan's thoughts. He immediately put on the sweet smile of a skylink baby and looked at Hu Mei coquettishly.

"Fox Sis, I want to eat the Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs that you made!"

Hu Mei's smile was clean and gentle, and she immediately agreed. He diligently made his way to the kitchen. Not long later, an alluring fragrance drifted out.

"Why do I have to make her cook for me when I'm pretending to be dumb? But now, even if you don't want to eat it, you still have to. "

Smelling the intoxicating sweet smell from inside, Gu Huainan forced a smile.

His eyes had already drifted to the window, to the blue sky. His expression was one of concentration, as if he had seen his mother's smile on a cloud.

It wasn't that Gu Huainan didn't like to eat sweet food; he was just afraid that he would smell the fragrance of his mother's food.

When his parents weren't in trouble, what he loved the most was to get tired of his big brother's mother and eat the sweet and sour carp and the sweet and sour pork that she was the best at.

And now …

The corner of Gu Huainan's mouth twitched. He looked at the busy figure in the kitchen and lowered his gaze.

There was a dejected shadow under his black clear mascara, sprinkling out a heartbroken shadow.

"Pah!"

Qin Yuan smiled and knocked on the proof in his hand, handing it over to Tang Zile, who was leaning against the table. "Child Face, this is for you. Take it. Third Bro's life is tied to this."

Tang Zile pursed his lips and received the certificate in disdain.

Wasn't all this made up? How could it be as important as what Qin Yuan said?

Others might not know it, but Tang Ziling understood Qin Yuan the best. If a mere fake certificate could make things difficult for him, the chief physician, then no one else would have to do anything.

Of course, for the sake of the evidence, Gu Huainan had 'painfully' checked with Hu Mei in the hospital three days ago.

"General Manager, the results of the examination are out. This is the medical record and certificate that our people found from the attending doctor."

In the office, Gu Jingjie was sitting in a leather chair, leisurely sipping a cup of scented tea. The subordinate respectfully handed over the documents and proof to him.

After roughly flipping through a few pages, Gu Jingjie's eyes rested on the last few large black words.

"Nervous paralysis. IQ has dropped. Preliminary confirmation that it is a brain injury. The hope of recovery is slim?"

Gently tapping his fingers on the document, Gu Jingjie seemed to be considering the authenticity and persuasiveness of these words.

If what the documents said was true, then Gu Huainan's life could be considered as ruined. He was the only direct relative left of the Gu Clan, who would dare to be nosy?

That brat Gu Dong was just a side branch. Even if he spoke up, no one would support him.

Only those brothers …

Gu Jingjie suddenly pressed the document in front of him and waved his hand. "Inform all of the upper echelons of the Gu Clan that President Gu Huainan is recuperating. I'll replace the position of CEO of the Gu Clan!"

The subordinate was surprised, but he still tremblingly agreed, quickly disappearing from Gu Jingjie's sight.

He exhaled, and his aged face finally showed signs of exhaustion.

"Eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, now the Gu Group is completely in my hands. If you people from the Nine Springs knew about it, you would probably wake up laughing, right? "

A sharp voice similar to the cry of an owl sounded. Gu Jingjie's aged face was filled with an evil smile.

"Ding ling ling …"

As the phone kept on ringing, Hu Mei immediately put down the food she just cooked and answered with a jog.

"Second Uncle?"

When she heard Gu Jingjie's voice, she was stunned for a few seconds.

Ever since they moved out of the Gu family's ancestral residence, this was the first time Gu Jingjie had called her and Gu Huainan. Hu Mei had almost forgotten about the elderly voice of Gu Jingjie.

However, she didn't even have time to be shocked. When she heard Gu Jingjie's request, Hu Mei immediately frowned.

Huai Nan hadn't recovered yet, so how could he participate in the meeting that Gu Jingjie had told him about?

Besides, even if he could go, would he understand the high-level meeting?

However, Gu Jingjie's tone was very unyielding, and Hu Mei agreed to anything he said. Thinking about the money he had transferred to her card, Hu Mei hesitated, but still agreed to discuss it with Gu Huainan.

Seeing that Hu Mei was walking towards him, Gu Huainan pretended to be innocent and continued to hold his stomach as he smiled at the two fat bears on the TV.

"Huai Nan, Second Uncle just called. He wanted you to participate in the Gu Clan's general meeting and asked you to agree to give him the position of CEO."

Hu Mei said softly. Seeing that Gu Huainan's attention was not on her, she sighed and went on.

"He told me that if you really don't want to go, you can bring a document and say yes."

Hu Mei's words were completely ineffective. Gu Huainan continued laughing towards the TV, as if he didn't notice at all.

She smiled wryly at his smile.

Wasn't it too unbelievable to let a giant baby understand what she said just now?

However, Gu Jingjie had always been giving money to her bank account, and had even asked her to take good care of Huainan. Now that Huai Nan was unconscious, there was nothing wrong with letting Gu Jingjie take over the company.

If he couldn't even bring out a single document, he might not be able to do so, right?

"Fox sis, I want to eat milk candy. Can you buy some for me?"

While Hu Mei was frowning and deep in thought, Gu Huainan suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at her pitifully. His pupils were clean and watery like a pitiful puppy's.

Hu Mei's heart immediately softened as she looked at him and didn't know what to say. She could only get up in a fluster and find some candy for him.

But after searching the entire refrigerator and snack bar, she couldn't find any traces of candy.

"Strange, yesterday I clearly remembered that I put a candy on it, why can't I find one now?"

Hu Mei frowned as she thought about it, but she quickly left in the end. She went to buy the milk candy that Gu Huainan loved the most.

"You have to obediently wait for me at home!"

Before they left, Hu Mei said to Gu Huainan with a clean smile. Only after seeing the man's equally pure smile and silly reply did she leave in relief.

The supermarket was just below the villa area, so a few minutes away wasn't a big problem for Hu Mei.
