After ten minutes, Guan La and Gui Xi left one after the other; the nurse shut the door behind them and departed as well.
The ward fell silent once again.
Only Lu Yinchu and Nanxi were left.
Nanxi looked at Lu Yinchu, seeing his handsome face reduced to such a state, she felt a terrible ache in her heart.
Lu Yinchu took her hand; obediently, she sat down on the hospital bed and asked, âWhat really happened? You and Dr. Guiâ¦â
âItâs nothingâ¦â
âHow can you say itâs nothing when youâre in this shape?â Nanxi bit her lip, feeling upset, and even angry.
Lu Yinchu sighed, pulling her in, âIâm okay!â
He paused, then added, âI found out some things and didnât tell him, so we ended up fighting it out last night to let off some steam.â
âYou came across some information? What type?â
Nanxiâs eyes flashed, âIs it about big sister Lan?â
Lu Yinchu nodded, âYeah.â
Nanxi pressed her lips together, âIs it something serious?â
It must be serious, Nanxi thought to herself. How else would they have ended up fighting so fervently? Moreover, the person laying the blows was the gentle and serene Dr. Gui.
Lu Yinchu touched her cheek, once again affirming, âYeah.â
Nanxi was taken aback. Guan La had once harbored feelings for Lu Yinchu, but they had no such relationship anymore. What could have happened to make Gui Xi so angry?
Her heart skipped a beat.
âWhat are you thinking about?â
Lu Yinchu furrowed his brows, placing a gentle kiss on her hand, âItâs not what youâre thinking. Donât worry! Guan La and I, weâre clean.â
Lu Yinchu held his lips together, âIn fact, it mainly involves Doudouâ¦â
Nanxi was a little taken aback, âDoudou?â
Wasnât Doudou Guan Laâs daughter? Surprised, she asked, âWhat about Doudou?â
Lu Yinchu: âDoudou is Gui Xiâs biological daughter!â
â¦
The way Lu Yinchu encountered this fact was purely coincidental!
It happened on the fifth month after Guan Laâs wedding. By then, she was heavily pregnant and on maternity leave at home.
One day, Guan La suddenly called him, saying that she was having a stomach ache!
A pregnant woman having a stomach ache was a serious matter!
As Lu Yinchu lived close to Guan La and was home that day, he quickly rushed to her house.
Upon entering the house, he was taken aback by the chaotic scene that resembled a looting scene. Guan La was propped up against the couch, clutching her stomach, her face covered in sweat as well as tearsâ¦
There was no time to think too much; Lu Yinchu swiftly picked up Guan La and rushed her to the hospital.
Luckily, both Guan La and the child were safe thanks to Lu Yinchuâs swift actions. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable.
Lu Yinchu sat by the hospital bed, his expression solemn. He quietly looked at the somewhat pale Guan La lying on the bed and asked her, âWhat exactly happened? Whereâs Chen Ye?â
Chen Ye, Guan Laâs husband!
Guan La bit her lip and closed her eyes, unwilling to speak more about it.
And so, Lu Yinchu stopped his inquiries, but it didnât mean he wouldnât do anything about it.
He looked for Chen Ye, who watched him with an expression full of ridicule, âCould it be that the bastard in her belly is yours?â
Lu Yinchuâs brows knitted together tightly as he immediately understood the circumstances.
Two months later, Guan La got a divorce. Chen Ye nonchalantly signed the papers, Guan La was even more carefree about it.
How could a woman ask for a divorce while pregnant unless she wanted to? Hence, it was Guan La who initiated the divorce.
Lu Yinchu was the one who escorted her.
He will never forget the insinuating and hateful glance Chen Ye gave him after signing the papers and leaving the room. He believed that the child was Lu Yinchuâs.
Guan Laâs marriage ended just like that. Lu Yinchu didnât say anything, nor did he ask Guan La who the father of the child was.
Guan La bravely took on everything, becoming a single mother, working hard.
Life seemed to regain its calm, or at least thatâs what Lu Yinchu thought.
In reality, it was not until last night that Lu Yinchu found out that Doudou was Gui Xiâs flesh and blood. Before that, he had assumed that the child was an accident!
An unexpected fall from grace for a single woman!
Last night, he went to Gui Xiâs apartment. Gui Xi was at the gym, exercising shirtless with an incredibly fit physique, and he was hitting a punching bag with boxing gloves on.
Lu Yinchu watched him puzzled.
Gui Xi tossed him a pair of boxing gloves, âWanna spar?â
Lu Yinchu wanted to refuse. Despite having sparred many times with Gui Xi in the past, he had indeed practiced boxing before.
