I covered my wound, gasping in pain. Changing my position, I still felt like I couldn't breathe. Gu Xing gently patted my back, saying, "It's okay, it's all over now."
On the third day after Secretary Zhang came to see me, I received a bouquet of flowers. The flowers were soaked in blood, looking shocking. The delivery guy looked puzzled when he handed it to me. There was no card or any information inside. My fingers were stained red with blood, and it dripped down my hand, one drop... another drop; I felt like I could hear its sound.
When Gu Xing entered and saw the blood on my hands, he rushed over, asking, "Where are you hurt? Let me see."
"This isn't my blood."
Still not reassured, Gu Xing called for the doctor and nurses. In the hospital's surveillance footage, the delivery guy was found, but he looked just as confused; he had only received an order through the delivery app.
The next day, Gu Xing discovered that Zhao Dandan had posted our conversation video online. Only the first half was shared.
"I'm the mistress, but Miss Li, you've already broken up with President Chen. Can you stop bothering him?"
"We're very much in love."
In an instant, I was doxxed; insults and attacks flooded in from all directions.
"This woman is so shameless; they've broken up and she's still clinging to him."
"Exactly! She's arguing with the mistress; does she think she's not pathetic enough?"
"Women like her waste air while alive and waste land when dead."
Their words were harsh and cruel. Some even dug up my phone number, address, and all my personal information. My phone was bombarded with calls from strangers.
Gu Xing sat by my hospital bed, keeping me company. The police quickly found out that it was Zhao Dandan's doing. Gu Xing held my hand and said, "Don't worry, Chen Weidong will give you an explanation." I didn't respond; my heart, numb from the pain, no longer felt hurt.
"He loves you so much; he won't let you suffer." I remained silent. Perhaps I had loved him once, but... what difference did it make now?
Chen Weidong accepted an interview, and in the video, his eyes were filled with exhaustion, his lips unshaven. "I've been with Li Xuan for six years. I always thought I would marry her and treat her well for a lifetime."
"But during this time, I've done things that have wronged her."
"Li Xuan is a very good girl; she hasn't done anything wrong. The fault lies with me; I have let her down." He spoke slowly, reflecting on our past together, everything that had happened.
In the end, his eyes turned red. "I'm sorry, Li Xuan." At the end of the video, he cried. I could tell it was heartfelt. I turned off the video and bid farewell to the past version of Chen Weidong in my heart. That clear and gentle young man could only remain in my memories.
After I was discharged from the hospital, Gu Xing practically moved into my home. He only went back to his place to sleep. When there were matters at the company, he would come directly to my house. I mentioned several times that I was fine now, but all my words were dismissed. I felt helpless; I let him be since I could work at home anyway. This continued for a month.
When I returned to work, the time Gu XIng spent at my home hadn't decreased much. Later, I realized he had been plotting all along. Unbeknownst to me, he had infiltrated my life and was everywhere.
Two years later, one afternoon, Gu XIng called me into his office. "This proposal, Client is very satisfied." Gu XIng looked at me and said, "You are truly an outstanding employee." I raised an eyebrow and replied, "Just get to the point."
Gu XIng cleared his throat lightly. "I think there's a way to save costs." "And that is, you marry me, so I won't have to pay you a salary." After hearing this, I didn't know whether to cry or laugh. Gu XIng always had a sharp tongue.
Later, I married him. On the wedding day, Aunt Chen and Uncle Chen, as my family members, attended the ceremony. I began calling them Dad Chen and Mom Chen. Seeing me happy, Mom Chen had tears in her eyes.
The next time I saw Chen Weidong was at the wedding. He had lost a lot of weight; the suit hung loosely on him. He held up a glass and said, "Li Xuan, I wish you happiness." I smiled and nodded, holding Gu XIng's hand as we moved on to toast the next table.
The past had blown away with the wind. After the wedding, I received many apology letters one after another. I read one but didn't look at any more. What was the point of apology letters? They had chewed up my life.
