Where was this place?
Gu Mingxuan slowly opened his eyes and saw the white ceiling. Then, she was blocked by a beautiful face.
"Ah Xuan, you're awake."
Hu Yanni looked at Gu Mingxuan in surprise. Her eyes were red as if she had just cried.
Sister Yanni, where is this?"
Gu Mingxuan wanted to move his body, but he felt sore and exhausted. He looked down and realized that he was covered in bandages.
He was now a living mummy!
"This is a hospital. You've been unconscious for three days!”
Hu Yanni sounded relieved.
"Three to three days?"
Oh no!
Gu Mingxuan started to worry.
He had not been home for three days. His mother must have been worried sick.
At the thought of this, Gu Mingxuan struggled to sit up despite the pain all over his body.
"Ah Xuan, what are you doing? The doctor said you still have to lie down for a week."
Hu Yanni was anxious, but she didn't know what to do.
"Sister Yanni, I want to go home and see my mother."
Gu Mingxuan stood up with difficulty. However, he felt sore all over with every step he took. In this way, not to mention walking back, it would be a problem if they could even get out of the hospital.
So Ah Xuan was still a filial son!
Hu Yanni's heart ached for him, but she was also secretly happy. She seemed to have another reason to like Gu Mingxuan, but she said,""Ah Xuan, you'd better lie down and rest. Tell me your home address, and I'll visit Auntie on your behalf."
"Sister Yanni, there's no need to trouble yourself. I'll go by myself."
Gu Mingxuan endured the pain and put on his shoes.
Seeing how insistent Gu Mingxuan was, Hu Yanni decided not to stop him. After some consideration, she said,""Ah Xuan, then let me help you back!”
.............
The taxi stopped at a small alley at the edge of Sham Shui Po.
After Hu Yanni paid, she got out of the car and helped Gu Mingxuan up.
At this moment, Gu Mingxuan only walked a little strangely. How did he look like he was lying in a hospital?
In order not to worry his mother, Gu Mingxuan had already gotten the doctor to remove the bandages on his wrists and ankles. The remaining bandages were hidden in his clothes. The bruises on her face made Hu Yanni apply a lot of white foundation to cover them up.
With one hand on Hu Yanni's shoulder, Gu Mingxuan slowly entered the alley.
"Little Xuan, you're back?"
He Er looked at the woman holding Gu Mingxuan in surprise. She was too beautiful! She was like a lovely girl who had walked out of a black and white television, so much so that he had neglected the injured Gu Mingxuan.
"Hello, Second Granduncle!"
Gu Mingxuan forced a smile.
"Xuan, where have you been these past two days? Are you alright?"
Grandma Wang asked Gu Mingxuan, but she could not help but glance at Hu Yanni.
This little girl was too beautiful!
When did Xuan find such a girlfriend? If only she was my daughter-in-law.
"Granny, I had something to do and went out for a few days."
Gu Mingxuan replied.
The people walking in and out of the alley greeted Gu Mingxuan whenever they saw him, but their eyes were always inadvertently fixed on Hu Yanni.
At this moment, an auntie called out to Gu Mingxuan." Ah Xuan, you're finally back! Your mother's illness is getting worse. I just fed her medicine and she's still lying in bed, muttering your name."
mom ~
Gu Mingxuan was extremely anxious and quickened his pace to head home.
Hu Yanni had no choice but to follow suit, but her eyes were filled with worry. The doctor had told her not to let Gu Mingxuan sweat or do strenuous exercise, or else there was a risk of infection.
But now that Mother Gu was sick, she felt anxious.
In the depths of the alley, Gu Mingxuan pushed open the dilapidated door with a trembling hand.
What entered Hu Yanni's eyes was a small courtyard that was less than ten square meters. The courtyard was filled with junk and emitted a strange smell.
To be honest, this was Hu Yanni's first time coming to such a slum-like place. She endured the discomfort in her heart and helped Gu Mingxuan in.
This was a shabby little house, but it was much cleaner than the courtyard. Hu Yanni felt that her breathing had become much smoother.
Under Gu Mingxuan's guidance, Hu Yanni helped him to a small room on the right.
"Mom ~"
Gu Mingxuan called out softly. Seeing no response, he pushed the door open gently.
"Sister Yanni, you can stay in the living room first."
Before entering the house, Gu Mingxuan specifically told Hu Yanni not to go in.
Hu Yanni nodded in understanding.
Gu Mingxuan naturally had his own considerations. Now that his mother's illness was even more serious, he didn't want his mother to worry about him. If Hu Yanni went in, his mother would definitely be suspicious and ask questions.
Gu Mingxuan had just walked to Li Xiulian's bedside when she opened her eyes as if she had sensed something." Xiaoxuan, Xiaoxuan…" Ahem, ahem, ahem, are you back?”
"Mom, it's me. I'm back."
Gu Mingxuan stepped forward and held his mother's wrinkled hands.
"Xiao Xuan, these few days, you... Where did you go? Cough, cough, cough. Did something happen?”
Li Xiulian couldn't help but cough every time she spoke.
" Mom, I'm fine. You should rest."
"I cough cough ~ cough ~"
Li Xiulian struggled to say something, but before she could say anything, she coughed violently again." Penpen…"
When Gu Mingxuan heard the word " basin," he immediately bent down to take out the basin under the bed and placed it by the bed. He then went forward to help Li Xiulian up.
Li Xiulian coughed and retched.
Gu Mingxuan could only pat his mother's back.
Blood?
