Chapter 1399 - Not Important Anymore 2

It was already the next morning when Gu Lingsha woke up.

She woke up feeling groggy despite sleeping all night. Her whole body was weak, but all the memories from yesterday were constantly running through her head. Even in her sleep, she still could not forget the bad news that had taken her by surprise.

“Missus, you need to eat something. Master will go to the police station to deal with Miss Doris’s funeral. He will be back to have lunch with you at noon. You must take care of yourself,” Mary became worried after she had seen Gu Lingsha’s haggard face and dazed expression.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Gu Lingsha raised her eyes weakly and looked at Mary who was standing in front of her. She leaned back softly on the sofa while her hoarse voice sounded a little weak. “I’m fine. Where’s Weiwei?”

“Miss Weier went out with Master and they’ll be back together at noon. Please don’t worry, Missus. The most important thing you need to do now is to take care of your body. Dr. Wang came to see you yesterday and your condition isn’t great. Master even got angry about it. Dr. Wang has prescribed various medicated diets to replenish your body. I just boiled some for you. I’ll bring it over,”

Mary quickly went downstairs and soon brought a bowl of bird’s nest porridge and some nutritious food. “Missus, have some.”

Gu Lingsha looked at the steaming hot food, but she did not have any appetite. How could she possibly have the appetite to eat after what happened to Doris? As she sighed unconsciously, she looked up at Mary and said, “You said Master lost his temper yesterday?”

Mary nodded and replied, “Yes, Missus. Yesterday, Dr. Wang said that your condition wasn’t good, and if you don’t do anything about it, your body will be seriously burned out. Master threw the teacup in his hand and it shattered into pieces. He blamed us for not taking good care of you. So, Missus, you shouldn’t get angry with Master. He still cares about you and Miss Weier.”

In the past, Qi Feng and Gu Lingsha had their fair share of differences that Mary had always known. During these times, Qi Feng was always moody and poor Qi Weier had to go through all that. Because Mary was a loyal servant, she certainly did not want to see Qi Feng and Gu Lingsha turn against each other!

“Furthermore, the whole time you left, Master hasn’t been in a good mood. Missus, we have seen the relationship between you and Master for the past few years, and we can all feel it. He truly loves you, and I think since both of you have experienced so many things together, the relationship you both share won’t change so easily,” Mary added after thinking for a while.

Gu Lingsha’s eyes darkened. She could not help but sigh lightly. “Did he ask you to tell me this?”

“No, Master is the kind of person who doesn’t really know how to express himself. He wouldn’t let me tell you all these. I was just worried so...” Mary murmured while her tone sounded a little cautious.

Gu Lingsha smiled sadly. “Mary, I’d know if he loves me or not. Besides, you may not know everything between us. What you saw was probably just the surface. All I can say is I can sense his feelings towards me fading away. I think maybe we’ll never go back to where we started...” Her face became a little pale as she said this. She did not seem to have any energy left in her.

“But, Missus, I don’t believe that a strong relationship like that can be erased so easily. If Master doesn’t care about you, he wouldn’t have lost his temper. He also knew you weren’t happy, so he let you have your own space for a while. As they say, third parties see most of the game, Missus.”

“We can’t go back. We really can’t. I know it.” Gu Lingsha’s lonely blue eyes flickered, and she was absolutely frustrated.

“You can if you really want to!” A cold, hoarse voice cut her off before Mary could react.

Gu Lingsha suddenly turned her head and looked at where the voice came from. She saw Qi Feng motionless by the door. He seemed to have been standing there for a while.

“Master!” Mary greeted him respectfully.

“Put the things aside. You may leave first,” Qi Feng said in a low voice while rolling the wheelchair and moving towards Gu Lingsha.

“Yes, Master!” Mary obediently put down the tray in her hand and walked out.

Qi Feng looked at Gu Lingsha who was in front of him, but she lowered her head and did not utter a word.

After a while, he looked away and reached out to pick up the bird’s nest porridge Mary made. He tested the temperature for a moment, took a spoonful, and held it close to Gu Lingsha’s pale lips.

The faint and alluring scent startled her. When she looked up and saw Qi Feng’s expression, her heart immediately softened and she could feel her eyes burning. She let all her sorrow and pain out. Suddenly, everything crumbled and she could not hold back her tears.

As long as she could remember, he would only treat her so tenderly when she was sick and at her lowest. Those times made her feel like he loved her deeply, but how did they end up like this?

Qi Feng paused for a while after seeing her cry. After a long time, he said huskily, “There, there, don’t cry. We’ll put the past behind us. Let’s be like how we used to. Nothing is going to change.”

“Feng...I’m sorry, don’t leave me! Please don’t leave me...I’m really scared...I have nothing left. You and Weiwei are all I have...” Gu Lingsha could not stop crying and Qi Feng had never seen her like this before.

“I’m terrified at the thought that eventually, you will leave me too. I really can’t bear the pain. I’m really scared...That’s why I can only watch cautiously when Xi Xiaye and Mu Yuchen are in love. I shouldn’t be so jealous. I knew you were forced to! Feng, please don’t be mad...I promise I will never act like that again. I’ll always trust you, Feng...”

Gu Lingsha began crying even more as she wrapped her hands around Qi Feng’s neck and melted into his embrace.
