Chapter 588 Worry
"I don't want her to see me like this. I will get better."
Despite his frail health, Gu Tingyan's will remained strong.
In the hospital ward, the lights were dim and soft, but they could not dispel the deep sorrow.
Li Yan stood in front of Gu Tingyan's hospital bed, tears streaming down her face like broken beads. Her body trembled slightly, her lips quivered, and her eyes were filled with heartache.
Each tear seemed to be a crystallization of her inner pain, falling onto the cold hospital floor.
"Ah Yan, how could this happen? You have to get better!" Li Yan said, choking back tears.
She gripped Gu Tingyan's hand tightly; it was as cold as ice in the dead of winter, making her heart clench painfully.
Seeing Li Yan so heartbroken, Gu Tingyan felt a pang of guilt.
He weakly raised his hand, wanting to wipe away Li Yan's tears: "Mom, don't cry... I don't want to see you like this."
Gu Tingyan looked at Duan Yujing standing to the side, his eyes pleading: "Dad, please help me coax Mom away. I don't want her to be so heartbroken because of me."
Duan Yujing looked at her son on the hospital bed and felt a pang of sadness.
He walked to Li Yan's side and gently patted her shoulder: "Li Yan, let's go first, Ting Yan needs to rest."
He'll be alright, don't worry too much.
Li Yan turned her head and looked at Duan Yujing with teary eyes: "No, I won't leave. I want to stay here with him."
Duan Yujing sighed.
Knowing Li Yan's temper, he tightened his grip: "Yan'er, you'll only make Tingyan worry more if you stay here. Let's go out first and let him rest and recover."
Li Yan bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
She took one last look at Gu Tingyan, her eyes filled with longing: "Tingyan, you must get better soon, I'll wait for you."
After speaking, he slowly walked out of the ward with Duan Yujing's help.
Soon after, Jiang Yi anxiously found Gu Tingyan's hospital room.
The moment she rushed into the ward, she suddenly stopped, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.
The atmosphere in the ward instantly became subtle, as if an invisible layer of ice was spreading between the two of them.
Gu Tingyan looked at Jiang Yi, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
His eyes held both the joy of seeing his lover and a hint of panic and unease.
"Jiang Yi...you've come." His voice was a little hoarse.
Jiang Yi looked at the weak Gu Tingyan on the hospital bed, her heart filled with mixed feelings.
Her heart, which was originally full of worry and anxiety, inexplicably rose with a sense of grievance and anger the moment she saw Gu Tingyan.
"You were hospitalized, why didn't you tell me? Do you know how worried I was about you?" Tears welled up in her eyes.
Gu Tingyan lowered his head, not daring to look Jiang Yi in the eye: "I didn't want you to worry. I thought I could handle it myself."
"What do you think? You're always so self-righteous!" Jiang Yi was a little agitated and took a few steps forward.
Gu Tingyan raised his head, his eyes filled with guilt: "I'm sorry, Jiang Yi, it's my fault."
Li Yan and Duan Yujing did not leave the ward and saw this scene through the crack in the door.
Li Yan gently tugged at Duan Yujing's sleeve and whispered, "They seem to be having a disagreement. Let's go first and give them some time."
Duan Yujing nodded, and the two quietly left.
......
Central Square.
A grand offline charity event is underway.
The scene was packed with people, bustling with excitement, and colorful balloons floated in the air.
Various public service announcement boards were displayed around the area, detailing the concepts and operational methods of internet-based philanthropy.
Gu Tingyu and Shen Nianxu were still helping.
