I proudly told Ye Qian, “See, Jing Tian will only listen to me!”
Ye Qian’s smile was indulgent, “Nanxing, of course he does. Everyone loves you because you are so kind!” It was like I was her little sister.
I deliberately sighed. “I must be kind because I was willing to lend my fiance to someone else. A different person would have rushed into the ward to curse the world out already. Don’t you think?” Ye Qian nudged her feet slightly to block my line of sight into the ward. “Nanxing, thank you very much!” Nanxing said sincerely.
“What for?” I asked casually.
“Thank you for allowing Master Qi to come to visit Gu Yan. I know you never take Gu Yan to heart, she is not your match. Thank you for pitying her and allowing her this small wish.” Ye Qian’s voice was sad.
I smiled, “Sister Ye Qian, you’re wrong. It’s not that I don’t take Gu Yan to heart but mainly it’s because Jing Tian doesn’t take her to heart. I am not as generous as you think. But since I’ve done this, you owe me one. I am a businesswoman, I don’t do things without benefits.”
Ye Qian was stunned. She smiled helplessly, “Nanxing, you are very interesting. It is because of your straightforward nature that everyone can’t help falling in love with you.”
A loud bang came from the ward. Ye Qian turned around and pushed the door open.
Inside the ward, Gu Yan had fallen to the bed. Her clothes were disheveled. Her hospital gown was exposed, revealing her fair shoulder and half of her breasts. Gu Yan’s long hair fell over her face as she sat there and sobbed. I glanced at Jing Tian. His face was ashen. He pulled me along and left.
I stopped him with a smile. “My dear Master Qi, what happened here? Did she throw herself at you and you had to shove her back?” Jing Tian glared at me. I smiled because I was right.
Ye Qian helped Gu Yan and asked with concern. “Yan Yan, what’s wrong? Are you injured?”
Gu Yan only continued to cry.
Ye Qian turned around and said sternly, “Master Qi! How can you do this? No matter what, Gu Yan is a young girl. How can you raise your arm at her? This is so ungentlemanly!”
Jing Tian said in a deep voice, “Don’t push it! Gu Yan, I don’t care about your situation in the Gu Family, it has nothing to do with me. I have never had anything to do with you. You know as well as I did why the marriage was canceled. If not for luck, Nanxing and I wouldn’t be standing here today. Please consider Jing Tian has died because he has indeed died back then thanks to your selfishness!”
Gu Yan sobbed harder. “Jing Tian, I’m sorry. I was too young. I was too afraid. I, I am sorry!”
“Gu Yan, stop finding excuses. When we were kidnapped, the youngest was Nanxing. It was she who went searching for water when you people were thirsty. She wanted to reserve some water for me because I was sick and you people turned on her. You almost cost her her life. Actually, I’ve been meaning to ask. After so many years, whenever you wake up at night, have you not felt guilt for what you’ve done?” Jing Tian interrogated angrily.
I stood beside Jing Tian and noticed his hands were trembling. I then realized he was still hurting from what happened back then. The wound in his heart never fully healed.
Gu Yan cried harder and knelt to the ground. “Jing Tian, I’m sorry. I was wrong.. I regret it dearly. I regret hurting you and I regret not having the ability to save you!”
