âYouâre awake?â Huo Mianâs voice was raspy and weak.
âDonât leaveâ¦â Like a child, he grabbed onto her hands tightly, unwilling to let go.
Huo Mian had never seen this side of Qin Chu before. He had always been so prideful, quiet, and cold, uninterested in anything that didnât involve her. Now? He looked so weak, his face colorless and his lips purple, helpless as could beâ¦
âI wonât leave.â Huo Mian turned back and sat down by his bedside.
âMian⦠I canât fix what my mother did. Iâm so sorry⦠If I had known that she would be so extreme, I wouldnât have let my father know that we were married. Itâs all my fault. Iâm sorry that your mother had to suffer.â
Although Qin Chuâs voice was weak, his gaze was honest and genuineâ¦
Huo Mian could tell that he truly felt apologetic towards her motherâ¦
âItâs okay, I canât blame you for what your mother did. You are you and your mother is your mother. You shouldnât pay for the crime she committed. The law even says that children shouldnât pay for their parentsâ monetary debts, not to mention something like this.â Huo Mian was much calmer after she combed through her thoughts.
Although she felt guilty towards her mother, she wasnât about to put the blame on Qin Chuâ¦
She could battle and hate his mother all she wanted, but she couldnât bear to continue fighting Qin Chu.
He had been, after all, so good to herâ¦
Qin Chu was surprised by what Huo Mian said. He had expected her to complain⦠but she didnât, and she didnât even plan on holding him accountable for anything.
âYouâre not mad at me anymore?â Qin Chu asked quietly as he gazed at Huo Mianâs face.
âMad? Of course Iâm mad at you! I almost forgot about it! Who allowed you to drink so much? Donât you know how dangerous that is? Gastric mucosal shedding, bleeding out⦠donât you know that you can die from a stomach hemorrhage?â Huo Mian was infuriated by Qin Chuâs neglect towards his own health.
âI knowâ¦â Qin Chu smiled bitterly. He studied medicine, how could he not understand the risks.
âThen why did you do it? Do you want to kill yourself?!â Furious, Huo Mian tried to pull away from Qin Chu but her hands were tightly gripped and she was unable to escape his holdâ¦
âAll I know is, I will also die if I lose you,â Qin Chu enunciated every word.
Huo Mian felt the pain in his words. It was as if they turned into millions of needles, pricking at her heartâ¦
With reddened eyes, Huo Mian looked at the weak but ridiculously handsome man in bed. âQin Chu, are you stupid?â
âOf course not, I think Iâm very smart.â
âYouâre smart?â Huo Mian questioned him angrily. She didnât think that someone who joked about death was smart.
âBecause I married the worldâs smartest woman.â
Huo Mian didnât respond. She simply stared deep into his eyesâ¦
She couldnât imagine being him, surviving seven years in another country with no more than a simple belief.
The man in front of her had suffered so much, while she was being cowardly and apprehensive.
Zhixin was right. How many seven-years did they have left? She didnât want to run away this time.
Huo Mian took the towel and continued to gently clean Qin Chuâs faceâ¦
Her strokes were slow and gentle⦠Qin Chu raised his head to carefully study Huo Mianâs face, gazing at her as if he couldnât have enough.
Qin Chu had informed GK of his absence but said that he was on a trip, hiding the fact that he was hospitalized.
Assistant Yang sent out endless emails into Qin Chuâs mailbox for the things that had to be dealt withâ¦
âMian.â
âHm?â
âWhy donât we leave this place, go somewhere where no one knows us, and start over?â
Huo Mianâs towel-holding hand paused for a secondâ¦
