Destined with You

Tang Rongling followed her closely. Gu Qingxin ignored him and entered the ward where Lin Yin had just woken up.

Gu Qingxin put on sterile garments to enter the ward. Lin Yin had woken up and was out of danger, but because of her brain surgery, she couldn’t yet speak or move.

The moment Lin Yin saw her daughter, tears fell immediately from her eyes. Gu Qingxin hurriedly wiped them away, her own eyes filled with tears, yet she forced a smile and said softly, “Mom, it’s such a relief that you’re awake.”

Lin Yin gently blinked, her fingers faintly twitched. Gu Qingxin quickly held her mother’s hand and said softly, “Mom, you need to rest and recover. I’m doing well now, you don’t need to worry about me.”

Tang Rongling stared at the woman lying there, his expression slightly dazed. He moved forward and hugged Gu Qingxin’s shoulder, saying, “Aunt Lin, take it easy. Even if I can’t marry Qingxin, 1’11 take care of her as if she were my little sister.”

Gu Qingxin wanted to throw his arm off her shoulder, but to avoid worrying her mother, she bore with it and said, “Mom, you must really strive to get better.”

Then she leaned over to her mother’s ear and softly added, “Mom, nobody has bullied me. Someone has saved me.”

Since her mother had fallen ill as a result of worrying about her, she could only say this to put her mind at ease.

Gu Qingxin wasn’t lying. After all, she hadn’t been bullied by Mr. Meng. At least, not by him, but another man.

No matter what, any explanation would have to wait until her mother fully recovered.

For now, her mother needed to rest and recuperate.

Visiting hours were over, so Gu Qingxin reluctantly said goodbye to her mother and left the ward, feeling sad. She took off her sterile gown and, facing the window, raised a radiant smile towards her mother, waving goodbye.

Just then, her wrist was suddenly grabbed. Tang Rongling pulled her into the corridor. Gu Qingxin, annoyed, blurted out, “Let go of me!”

“We heard that Xiao Ci came to accompany Aunt Lin during the surgery. Did you bully her again?” Tang Rongling looked at her, coldly demanding an answer.

After they returned, YunCi had cried in his arms, upset. But no matter how he pushed, she refused to say a bad word about Gu Qingxin…

“The one who wronged you is me! If you’re angry, take it out on me, don’t involve innocent people! YunCi is pregnant, she can’t be stressed. 1 won’t allow anyone to hurt her or the baby.”

“Are you done?”

Gu Qingxin gently rubbed her aching wrist. Suddenly she raised her head to look at him, her eyes full of disappointment.

Tang Rongling looked at her and his face darkened.

Why should she be disappointed? It should be him, right?

She was the one who threatened him, who said she would harm the baby in YunCi’s belly!

“Tang Rongling! Even if we’ve broken up, don’t make me regret ever loving you! Stop doing things that make me think I was blind to have ever liked you!” A tear escaped from the corner of Gu Qingxin’s eye despite her effort to hold it back.

As her heart sank further into numbness, she continued, “If you and YunCi can avoid appearing in front of me, 1 will definitely stop showing up in front of you. Even if we happen to bump into each other, I will take a detour. I hope you can do the same..”
