"What's wrong? Hearing that Ye Zixun dumped Mu Jiao'er for you, are you touched?" Gu Feng misinterpreted her expression, thinking she was moved.
In an instant, Lan Baobao looked up, her gaze locking onto Gu Feng's face.
As their eyes met, Lan Baobao quickly shook her head to indicate her answer to Gu Feng.
"I was just thinking, why did Ye Zixun only realize the importance of cherishing now? Why doesn't he know how painful it is for me to return to his side?"
"Alright!" Gu Feng saw that her smile was more painful than her tears and felt a sharp pain in his heart. "Stop dwelling on unhappy things from the past. Isn't it good now? I’m here to take care of you, and I won’t let you and your son suffer."
"Thank you."
Lan Baobao was truly grateful to Gu Feng; she just didn’t know how she could repay him.
It was just because a few years ago, she accidentally helped Gu Feng a little, and now she received so much kindness from him that she felt a bit embarrassed.
"You silly girl, why are we being so formal with each other?" Gu Feng ruffled her hair and then handed her the peeled apple.
After Lan Baobao took the apple, she hadn’t even taken a couple of bites before she saw Gu Feng walking out.
As Gu Feng reached the door, he suddenly signaled one of the bodyguards at the entrance. The bodyguard immediately followed Gu Feng down the hallway until they slowly came to a stop.
"Master Gu, do you have any instructions?"
Gu Feng smiled at Lan Baobao, closed the door behind him, and led his subordinate to a secluded area nearby.
His expression was very serious.
His subordinates knew Gu Feng's habits; when he showed this expression, it meant that something bad had happened and needed to be dealt with.
"Find an opportunity to get some medicine and mix it into Mu Jiangfeng's medication. I don't want Mu Jiangfeng to continue living," Gu Feng suddenly ordered.
The bodyguard was shocked by Master Gu's words.
Had Master Gu lost his mind? This sudden change left him unsure of how to respond.
"Master Gu, are you really going to kill Mu Jiangfeng? You're not joking, right?" He still wasn't certain and wanted to hear it clearly from Gu Feng once more.
Gu Feng suddenly darkened his face and glared impatiently at the bodyguard.
"Do I need to repeat myself? This matter must be done discreetly; no one can know."
"Yes, I understand what to do. Please rest assured, I will not disappoint you, Master Gu!"
Now he fully understood why Master Gu wanted this done, mainly because of Sister Lan.
Master Gu's feelings for Sister Lan must have been hurt by seeing her take care of another man while pregnant with someone else's child, which was likely why he wanted this done!
Mu Jiangfeng living was indeed a problem.
Gu Feng turned back to the room and saw Lan Baobao still focused on gnawing on a large apple.
A faint smile appeared on her face.
The only way to rescue Lan Baobao from her guilt should be to eliminate Mu Jiangfeng.
“Mu Jiangfeng, don’t blame me! Since you are already a person who is on the brink of death, it would be better for you to just die!”
The nurse, Nurse, had prepared the medication and was about to distribute it.
At that moment, a man suddenly rushed over, seemingly drunk, and clung to Nurse, while another man injected something into the medication meant for Mu Jiangfeng.
Caught off guard by this man’s advance, Nurse was startled and flustered, unsure of what was happening.
After finally managing to push away the man who had been bothering her, the commotion subsided, and the man who had acted suspiciously naturally disappeared.
Once she freed herself from those two men, she felt much more at ease and continued with her work.
“Master Gu, everything you instructed has been taken care of.”
After receiving a call, the bodyguard outside the ward immediately entered. Seeing Master Gu watching over Sister Lan, who was peacefully asleep by the bedside, the bodyguard deliberately lowered his voice.
Gu Feng noticed that the nurse had almost finished distributing the medication and immediately raised his hand to stop the man from continuing.
As long as the task was accomplished, it didn’t matter; Mu Jiangfeng could not be allowed to continue living. If Mu Jiangfeng lived on, Baobao would have to spend more time taking care of her.
Now that Baobao was pregnant, even if she disregarded her own health, she still had to consider the child in her womb.
Taking care of Mu Jiangfeng for a long time, the child would definitely not be able to survive. For the sake of the child, for the baby, one had no choice but to make this decision.
Gu Feng saw the Nurse and finally approached Mu Jiangfeng's ward, taking a long while to come out.
In his deep gaze, there was a dangerous glint.
After a while, Lan Baobao opened her eyes. She had slept very comfortably just now, as if she had been asleep for a long time. It had been a while since she had rested so well; this sleep was truly rare and comfortable!
As Gu Feng entered, he saw Lan Baobao stretching. A smile immediately appeared on his face as he said, "Baby, you’re awake?"
"Yes! I’m awake. That sleep was really comfortable!"
Gu Feng helped Lan Baobao sit up, attentive in every way, as if he were her husband.
Lan Baobao looked at his actions and gave him a faint smile.
"Gu Feng, you don’t have to stay in the hospital with me all the time. You’ve been here for so long; don’t you have your own matters to attend to?"
"There’s nothing more important than you. Once your health improves a bit and the placenta stabilizes, then I’ll take care of my own things."
"You can’t keep doing this; you can’t put everything aside for me. You need to live your own life too." Finally, these words slipped out. Lan Baobao didn’t want her to do more for herself; that would be too foolish.
Gu Feng's eyes became very deep. After a long while, his voice finally echoed in the ward. "Lan Baobao, tell me, do you dislike my presence?"
"No, of course not." Lan Baobao hurriedly shook her head. Why would Gu Feng think that? She just didn’t want him to put all his energy into her alone!
"You should know that I cherish you as a friend, truly cherish you. Please don't misunderstand!"
Just a friend? I had known this all along, but why do I feel so disappointed hearing him say those two words now?
"Since I am your cherished friend, why are you trying to push me away?" Gu Feng suppressed his disappointment and smiled lightly.
Gu Feng's question forced them to confront a problem they had long avoided. Lan Baobao met his gaze, and after a while, her gentle voice, tinged with regret, finally escaped her lips.
"Gu Feng, I just want you to stop making me the center of your life. I want you to have your own life, okay?"
"What?"
"I'm not worth that from you, and right now the most important thing in my heart is not myself. You should know this well; the most important person to me right now is Mu Jiangfeng."
Lan Baobao presented a very realistic and objective reason.
"Mu Jiangfeng's current situation requires someone to take care of him. I don't want to leave this matter to others, so I won't accept anyone else."
"Lan Baobao, think about how you are right now. How can you take care of Mu Jiangfeng?" Gu Feng couldn't help but feel angry upon hearing her words. "You should consider your own situation; you're pregnant. What ability do you have to care for someone else? It's already good enough that you're not letting others take care of you."
A complex emotion surfaced on Lan Baobao's face. The child... for a moment, Ye Zixun's face flashed in her mind; this man seemed like an eternal nightmare that she could never escape from, always following her.
Seeing her suddenly lost in thought, Gu Feng probably guessed who Lan Baobao was thinking about.
"If you can't let go, why do you need to run away? This time Ye Zixun has already done it thoroughly, hasn't he?"
"Did he do it thoroughly?" Lan Baobao could no longer trust him.
Gu Feng's expression was serious. "This time, Ye Zixun is willing to break up with Mu Jiao'er just to be with you. You should know his sincerity."
"It's too late!" Although Lan Baobao still had feelings for Ye Zixun and couldn't accept another man, she could no longer accept Ye Zixun. The pain he caused her was too deep, so deep that she felt suffocated just looking at herself. "There is no possibility for me and Ye Zixun anymore, so it doesn't matter what he does."
"Then is there a possibility with Mu Jiangfeng?" Gu Feng reminded her. "Baby, don't forget one thing: the kidnapping incident also involves Mu Jiangfeng."
Upon hearing this, Lan Baobao's expression instantly darkened. What did he mean by that?
"Gu Feng, why do you want to remind me of this? What are you thinking?"
"I want to tell you that even if Mu Jiangfeng saved you at the last moment, it would be to atone for his previous actions. You don't need to do too much for Mu Jiangfeng."
"What if it were me lying in the Intensive Care Unit? What would you do? Would you still be so cold-hearted?" Lan Baobao believed that if it were her, Gu Feng would not leave the hospital room for a moment and would take care of her wholeheartedly.
Gu Feng was momentarily speechless. He understood that Lan Baobao was trying to make him empathize.
But didn't she consider her own feelings? Didn't she think about how worried he was for her? In her heart, besides Ye Zixun and Mu Jiangfeng, was there no place for him?
"Gu Feng, I know that if it were me, you would take care of me too, right?"
Finally, Gu Feng nodded.
If it were Lan Baobao lying in the hospital bed, Gu Feng would also give up everything and stay by her side.
I'm afraid Ye Zixun is the same.
Lan Baobao smiled in relief, understanding was enough.
“Gu Feng, thank you!”
“Why are you suddenly thanking me?”
“Thank you for being able to understand me, really, thank you!”
Because of this, Gu Feng felt not even a little bit of happiness from being thanked by Lan Baobao.
At that moment, the Attending Physician in a white coat hurriedly ran into Lan Baobao's hospital room.
Lan Baobao was puzzled to see the doctor suddenly appear in the room; what was the doctor doing here now?
