Chapter 77

Long Pei frowned, glanced subconsciously at Fang Jin from the corner of his eye, and then met her foggy eyes, his thin lips pursed in an emotionless arc, without saying a word.

Gu Mingxi seemed to have heard his answer, the tears in the corners of her eyes rolled down involuntarily, her skin was as cold as frostbite, her curled eyelashes quietly covered her eyes and she closed her eyes without wanting to say anything.

"Yi Ruo is out of danger, you don't have to worry." Fang Jin said Long Pei's words, "You are also tired, let He Lei take you back to your room to rest."

Fang Jin glanced at Gu Mingxi indifferently, faced Long Pei's deep eyes and nodded hesitantly for a few seconds, "Okay."

He Lei pushed Fang Jin out of the room, only the sound of Long Pei's breathing was left in the quiet space, her weak breathing seemed to disappear.The pitch-black eyes just looked at her for a moment, without saying a word, and there seemed to be something hidden between the frowning brows.

Gu Mingxi heard the soft closing sound of the door, and opened his eyes to look at him again, his misty eyes fixed on him, "You ordered Qianshang to stay there to save Yiruo, didn't you!"

The vibrato was minimal, but I was unwilling to reconcile and wanted to confirm it again.

He didn't believe that he didn't push Yiruo, so he asked Qianshang to save Yiruo first, ignoring her and the child, thus delaying her time so that she couldn't even keep her womb.

Long Peijian frowned for a moment, something flashed across his calm and calm eyes without saying a word.The voice was moody and angry, "Take a good rest and take care of your body."

His heart sank again, sinking again and again, and his last hope was shattered because of his words. The cold surged up from the bottom of his heart and spread to every part of his body.There was a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, and he closed his eyes with a vague "I understand".

Because of the massive bleeding from the miscarriage, her body was already very weak, and being able to say these two sentences to him was just holding her breath, and she still held a glimmer of hope in her heart.Now that breath of strength to support himself is gone, and he is plunged into boundless darkness.

Long Pei walked to her side, his slender and well-defined fingers froze above her lower abdomen, and his black pupils were as calm as a mirror without wind or waves.The thin lips were tightly pursed in an emotionless arc for a long time, and finally she withdrew her hand without saying a word, turned and left the room.

***********
Gu Mingxi was sent back to the Haoting Garden in a coma, and only Yan'er and Ru Bing were with her. Her health improved a lot, but her face remained pale and there was a slight wound between Liu's eyebrows. She also smiled when facing Xiao Yan'er. No, she hasn't spoken since she woke up.

Touching his shriveled belly, thinking that there was a child here, who left him before he knew it, and that he had no chance to be a mother again, the tears in the corners of his eyes fell silently.

What hurt my heart the most was Long Pei's behavior and attitude.

Fang Jin's words are still fresh in his memory, every sentence is like a knife cut in his heart, and there is nothing like this.

"Mommy, why are you crying again?" Long Ziqi lay on the edge of the bed, stretched out his mouth to wipe away the tears on her face, "Mommy, don't cry. Butler Bing said you can't cry now..."

She climbed into bed, "Mommy, I'll blow it on for you, don't you cry." When she was a child, she would cry when she fell and walked, and Mommy would blow on her wound and say that blowing it on would make it feel better.

Now she also wants to brag and tell Mommy not to cry.

Gu Mingxi's spirit was sluggish, even in the face of Xiao Yan'er, she couldn't force herself to smile, she didn't speak for a long time, her throat was sore when she moved her lips, "Ru Bing..."

"Madam, I'm here." Ru Bing immediately pushed the door open when he heard the voice, "Madam, what are your orders?"

"Send Yan'er to class." Gu Mingxi said without looking at her daughter.

"I'm not going!" Long Ziqi frowned, his expression was exactly the same as that of Long Pei, "I want to stay at home with Mommy."

Gu Mingxi looked at her with gloomy eyes, and just said two words, "Be obedient!"

Long Ziqi pursed her lips, wanting to say something more. It could be seen that she was not in good spirits and did not dare to offend Mummy. She lowered her head slowly and her emotions also fell.

Ru Bing walked over hesitantly and took Long Ziqi's little hand, "Miss, I'll take you to class! Madame is worried that you won't be able to keep up if you don't attend class, so don't let Madam worry. You can sleep with Madam when you come back at night."

Long Ziqi hesitated and nodded, "Okay then." Turning to look at Gu Mingxi, he said, "Mommy, stay at home well, I'll be back after class! Sleep with you at night."

Gu Mingxi had already closed her eyes, without any response, immersed in her own great grief, and was unable to care about anyone anymore.

Long Ziqi followed Ru Bing out of the room, her pink cheeks were also dull, she could feel that something happened to Daddy and Mommy.Mommy was very bad after she came back. Daddy had to come back to check on Mommy after she fell asleep, and he didn't even accompany him.

She doesn't like this, she really wants Daddy and Mommy to be a good family like before.

*********
When Long Pei came out of the bedroom, he saw Fang Jin, lowered his eyes and said, "Mother."

Fang Jin glanced at the open door, and said in a low voice, "Ruoruo is asleep?"

"Yes."

"Ruo Ruo is Director Yi's daughter after all, and she helped you a lot before. This time, Gu Mingxi did something wrong. You have to treat Ruoruo well and spend more time with her." Fang Jin's deep voice Not discussing with him, but the tone of direct command.

"I know." Long Pei's calm expression made it hard to figure out his thoughts, and his answer to Fang Jin was also concise and to the point. "It's okay, I'll go first."

Turning around and walking towards the stairs, Fang Jin's voice came from behind, "Gu Mingxi will never be able to give birth to an heir for you, she doesn't even have the last bargaining chip."

The hints in the words were too strong, Long Pei pretended not to understand, turned around and looked at her, "She is still my wife now." She is the president's wife in the eyes of the people.

Fang Jin pursed her lips and smiled inexplicably, "I didn't say not to let her be your wife. If Yi Ruo is a smart and obedient person, she will not do anything to hurt or embarrass you."

Long Pei closed his eyes, and his expression darkened without any trace, "I know, I will talk about these things after Yi Ruo has recovered her health."

Fang Jin nodded and waved his hand to signal that he could go.

Long Pei took a step forward, striding like he was about to leave impatiently.Sitting in the car, Yu Si said, "Your Excellency, are you going to the office building or..."

"The Mansion Garden."

*******
The car stopped in Haoting Garden, Long Pei got out of the car and walked into the living room, Ru Bing immediately relaxed when he saw his heavy expression, "Your Excellency, you are back."

"Hmm." Long Pei handed her the coat, looking upstairs, "How is Madam?"

Ru Bing's smile froze, and she shook her head helplessly, "Madam is still in a low mood, no matter how Miss teases her, it's useless."

Long Pei didn't speak, and walked upstairs.Pushing open the bedroom door, I saw her lying on the bed, her expression indifferent, her dim eyes looking at the orange light, and her calm eyes made it impossible to guess what she was thinking.

However, she lost a lot of weight in a week, and her face was still pale, giving the impression that she would disappear at any time.She was immersed in her own world and didn't even notice Long Pei who walked in.

He swallowed the words on his lips again, turned around and took out his pajamas from the closet to go to the bathroom to take a shower.When he came out after a while, Gu Mingxi maintained the same posture as before. He lifted the quilt and lay beside her, pulling her into his arms with his cool palms.

Gu Mingxi didn't struggle, nor turned around to look at him, her body subconsciously tensed up and stiffened, her fingers tightly clutching the corner of the pillow.

Long Pei didn't say anything, just hugged her and closed his eyes like this.

In the middle of the night, the room was exceptionally quiet, and the sound of shallow breathing intertwined.The people around him breathed out evenly, Gu Mingxi opened his eyes and looked at the yellowed light, his body was still tense, and he stretched out his hand to break off the fingers clasped around his waist.

Even in his sleep, Long Pei's fingers hugged her tightly, unable to break apart.Gu Mingxi had no choice but to open his eyes and stay up until dawn with a stiff body.

He was beside him, and when she closed her eyes, she could see the large bloodstains and the words that she heard in a daze...

Like an awl piercing my heart, the pain is embarrassing.
Early in the morning, Long Pei opened his eyes and found that Gu Mingxi hadn't slept yet. His eyebrows were frowned and he rubbed coldly. He stared at her with sharp eyes for a long time without saying a word.When she let go of her hand, she immediately moved her body to the side of the bed to keep a distance from him, as if she wanted to draw a clear line with him.

The palm of his hand fell on her hair and wanted to rub her, but he hesitated for a moment and retracted it. He got out of bed and went to exercise as usual, just like in the presidential palace.

When he returned to the bedroom to change after taking a shower, he subconsciously looked at her.Gu Mingxi didn't match or organize clothes for him anymore.He tied his tie and stood looking at her, as if waiting for her to speak.

Gu Mingxi just slowly closed his eyes.

Frowning coldly, he turned and left the room without saying a word, closing the door subconsciously without making much noise.

Gu Mingxi opened his eyes after hearing the sound of closing the door, propped himself up to sit up, curled up, hugged his hands, lowered his head to hide his tired look.

"Mommy, I don't have class today, so I'll go out with you to bask in the sun, okay?" Long Ziqi walked in at some point, and today he specially put on the animal costume he bought earlier. It was a little green dinosaur with a head on his head. It has horns, its hands are claws, and its tail flicks when it walks its butt, which is quite interesting.

Gu Mingxi looked up at her daughter's lovely appearance, and a forced smile appeared on her pale lips.

"Mommy, the flowers in the garden are blooming, why don't you accompany me to see it! Please! Please, Mommy..." Long Ziqi hugged her arm, coquettishly, and flicked her cute tail Ah flick.

Unable to withstand her daughter's soft and hard questions, Gu Mingxi nodded, "Okay. Then you go out first and let Mommy wash and change clothes."

"Mummy, I love you!" Long Ziqi leaned in front of her and kissed her on the cheek.

Gu Mingxi raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, his gloomy eyes finally had a soft light, and he looked at Xiao Yan'er lovingly.Long Ziqi jumped off the bed and walked out of the room, his wagging tail made people laugh uncontrollably.

***********
Ru Bing has already prepared sun umbrellas and breakfast in the garden.Now only the young lady can make the wife go downstairs to have breakfast. Seeing the little green dinosaur, she couldn't help laughing, she turned her head and said to the servant, "Our young lady is really cute."

The servant nodded in agreement in a low voice.

Although Ru Bing prepared different styles of breakfast, Gu Mingxi still ate very little. She was wearing a thin coat, and her long hair like seaweed fell down her shoulders. When the wind lifted her, she looked even more haggard and decadent.

After Long Ziqi drank a large glass of milk, he excitedly showed off to Gu Mingxi, "Mum, look at me, I drank the milk obediently! I am very powerful!"

On weekdays, she would only drink half of it if she had to be coaxed and coaxed like ice, because she really didn't like the taste of milk, but today she cooperated like this to make Mommy happy.

Gu Mingxi's eyes fell on the blooming flowers in the flower garden, there was a faint coolness in his eyes, his calm expression seemed to have not heard Long Ziqi's voice at all, and his brows were full of sadness.

Long Ziqi's smiling face was gradually surrounded by disappointment. She had worked very hard, so why couldn't Mummy be happy?

Gu Mingxi didn't seem to see her daughter's loss, she stood up and said in an indifferent voice: "You finish your breakfast obediently, I'm a little tired and go back to my room to rest."

Before Long Ziqi could speak, she had already turned and left.

"Mommy..." Long Ziqi's disappointed voice sounded in a low voice, his little face was full of sadness.

Seeing Yan'er like this, Ru Bing felt distressed, stepped forward and hugged her gently, "Miss, don't be sad. Everything will be fine after a while."

Long Ziqi hugged her, sobbing softly, without speaking.Seeing Mommy like this made her really sad, very sad.

***************
When Long Pei came back at noon, he happened to see Ru Bing coming down with a plate, his eyes fell on the food that had not moved at all, his eyebrows were cold, "She still doesn't eat?"

Ru Bing sighed and shook her head, "Madam has been eating very little these past few days, what she takes out is what she takes out!" Seeing that the young lady was so sad in the morning, she couldn't help but call your Excellency. It will soon collapse.If they continue to quarrel like this, the one in the middle will be the young lady who will be affected the most.

Miscarriage and bleeding, the body needs to be taken care of, is she looking for death by ruining herself like this without eating or drinking!Long Pei's face was gloomy, "Give me another serving."

"I'm worried that Madam will want to eat at any time, the kitchen is always prepared with hot food, I'll get it for you right away." Ru Bing immediately turned and went to the kitchen.

Long Pei went upstairs with the dinner plate, and pushed open the bedroom door. Gu Mingxi glanced at him, his empty eyes turned cold for a moment, and he looked back at the sheets, treating him like nothing.

He walked to the bed and put the dinner plate aside, and said in a lukewarm voice, "Ru Bing boiled it for you, drink some."

The black-bone chicken and ginseng soup is specially made for her to nourish her body. Red dates and wolfberry are added to nourish her blood.The weight I gained with great difficulty in the past two years disappeared instantly during this time.The flimsy image will be swept away by the breeze at any time, making people's hearts twisted into a ball when they look at it.

Gu Mingxi didn't look up at him, didn't speak, and remained silent as if he didn't hear anything.

Long Pei secretly took a deep breath, and said patiently: "Your body is so weak, if you don't eat, your body will collapse. Mingxi, eat."

Gu Mingxi raised his eyebrows, his watery eyes were dim and even empty, staring at him momentarily, the corners of his mouth seemed to mock him.He didn't care about her life back then, so why bother to pretend now!If he hadn't insisted on not letting Qianshang come back, maybe he wouldn't have had his womb removed and lost the greatest dignity of a woman.

If you really care about her, you won't give her a sweet date after hurting her every time.She is a human being, not a dog that comes and goes, who will beg for mercy if you throw a bone casually.Her heart will also ache, it will be cold, and it will no longer be able to warm up...

The patience of Long Pei and others was exhausted, sullenness rushed in his heart, and his eyes swept across her pale to blood-colored cheeks to hold back the anger.Picking up the bowl to feed her, he pinched the spoon with his bony fingers, blew on the hot soup, and passed the spoon to her lips.

Gu Mingxi turned her head away, avoided the spoon, lowered her eyes and stopped looking at him, her thin lips were tightly pursed in an indifferent arc, with a stubborn look on her face.

He stretched out his arms just to feed her, and when the spoon was about to touch her lips, Gu Mingxi frowned, raised his hand and swung his hand away forcefully, he didn't notice that the spoon in his hand The bowls fell to the ground together, spilling hot soup all over the blanket.

Long Pei's black eyes darkened, his face darkened calmly, he was not angry, but asked Ru Bing to clean up and send another copy.

The atmosphere was stiff and dull, neither Ru Bing nor the servants dared to say much, they even held their breath, and immediately left the room after tidying up.

Long Pei didn't feed her again this time. He pinched her chin with his strong fingers, forcing her to raise her head, and said in a cold voice, "Do you want to drink it yourself, or do you want me to force you to drink it down!"

His strength was great, his pale skin flushed quickly, almond eyes met his sharp eyes, his heart trembled and his breathing became difficult, he pushed him away without any resistance, his white teeth coldly squeezed out the words, "I, no, want, drink."

One word at a time, stubborn, tenacious.The eyes that stared at him no longer had the tenderness and affection of the past.

Long Pei's heart was tensed in an instant, and the coldness that gradually seeped out of his eyes was terribly cold, and his voice was sarcastically, "You don't care, you like to spoil yourself and don't want to be yourself, so what about Yan'er? You don't care about it either!"

Yan'er, the cold words hit her heart hard, her eyes turned red, thinking of her indifference and ignorance towards Yan'er during this period. Guilt and self-blame hit her heart in an instant, and the dull pain swept over her. It seems that Coptis chinensis is crushed in my heart, full of bitterness.

"Drink." Cold words escaped from her thin lips.Long Pei handed the bowl to her, and he was bound to watch her finish the soup.

Gu Mingxi lowered his head, the corners of his eyes were filled with warmth, holding the spoon with trembling fingers, thinking about the smoke, he forced himself to drink it, as if chewing wax and not knowing the taste.The surging white mist blurred her outline, the hot liquid burned all the way down the esophagus, and the pain spread
Long Pei's face became even more serious, and the hand beside him tightened secretly.
Maybe it's because I haven't eaten for a long time, the hot liquid enters the stomach, and I feel uncomfortable, like a hand stirring it upside down, and a nausea makes the food go back to the throat.She suppressed it so hard that she couldn't help it. She put down the bowl before drinking half of it, got out of bed and ran barefoot into the bathroom. It didn't take long for the sound of vomiting to come from the bathroom.

The sound reverberated in the silent space and crashed into Long Pei's heart.He stood up and walked towards the bathroom. Standing at the door, he stared at the sound of her kneeling and curling up in front of the toilet with emotionless eyes, and did not go in for a long time.

He spit out all the soup he just drank, including the unchewed food, and tears instinctively dripped down the toilet bowl along the outline.Stomach twitching pain, as if wanting to spit out all internal organs, maybe it's not so uncomfortable...
