When Jiang Jun said "Su Mo and I are only related in terms of work", it was like a pebble that disturbed Gu Qingyou's calm heart.
"The doctor is out??"
The butler's gentle call had pulled Gu Qingyou back from her deep thoughts.
The Director Jiang said softly, "Let's go and see your mother."
Gu Qingyou nodded.
Mrs Jiang had already moved from the operation room to the ICU and was lying quietly on the sickbed.
Of course, the Mrs Jiang dressed up extremely well, with all kinds of tubes sticking out of her body, it was simply shocking. If she did not know that the Mrs Jiang was only acting, she would not be able to tell that the old lady was acting at all from her current state.
"The doctor said that your mother will wake up after the anesthesia is over, but you can't talk to her for too long??" Director Jiang looked at his wife who was lying on the bed in pity, his voice tinged with exhaustion.
Since she had already secretly reached an agreement with Jiang Jun, Gu Qingyou did not reveal her intentions, and looked at Director Jiang with her considerate gaze."Dad, you haven't slept at all. Why don't you go home and rest? I'll stay here and wait for mom to wake up."
"I'm fine??" Director Jiang's gaze of heartache still had not moved away from his wife.
The performance at Director Jiang was also extremely good, causing Gu Qingyou to feel even more guilty. If the two elders did not desire for and her to stay, they would not have gone through so much trouble.
"Dad, let's go back and rest??" Gu Qingyou still tried to persuade her softly. Jiang Jun is also here, you don't have to worry, if Mom wakes up, I will get the butler to call you."
"Alright!" Director Jiang sighed softly. Then, you and Jiang Jun will stay here and look after your mother. However, if your mother wakes up, you must call me first."
"Yes, dad, you should go back and rest."
"Alright."
Director Jiang stood by the bedside and watched for a while before he left.
Gu Qingyou knew that the Mrs Jiang was very smart, she didn't dare let the Mrs Jiang in the slightest know that she was acting, so she gently pulled the blanket for him.
Mrs Jiang's eyes that were closed slightly trembled.
Gu Qingyou caught a glimpse of it from the corner of her eyes, but she continued to remain calm and guard the bed silently.
Suddenly, Jiang Jun walked in from outside.
For the sake of his mother's health, Jiang Jun had also put in great effort. Just now, he had seriously asked her about her mother's situation in front of Director Jiang, as if she was cooperating with his mother to put on an act in front of her.
Gu Qingyou only glanced at Jiang Jun once before she continued to gaze at Mrs Jiang who was lying on the sickbed.
At this moment, the sickroom was exceptionally quiet, so quiet that only the Mrs Jiang's steady breathing could be heard.
Jiang Jun was the first to break this tranquil moment, but the reason for the conversation was obviously to let the Mrs Jiang know that he was cooperating fully.
In other words, he wanted her to act together with him for the Mrs Jiang to see.
"Have you considered staying?"
Jiang Jun's naturally slightly cold voice lightly came over.
Gu Qingyou's finger, which was placed on her knee, slightly moved. I'm used to living in London, and I have no reason to stay." It turned out that even if it was an act, hearing his question, her heart would still tremble.
"Mom's health hasn't been good these past few years." Jiang Jun gazed at the side of her face and said with a low voice. If you can stay, I believe it will be good for her health."
When Gu Qingyou saw Mrs Jiang's eyelashes tremble again, she closed her eyes and smiled as if she was grieving."I know, but I believe you will take good care of Mom."
"If you insist on leaving, I will respect your choice. But you and I could have given the child a healthy family. Why did we insist on making the child the only victim of our relationship?" Jiang Jun's steady tone, spoke each word with all her might.
Gu Qingyou lifted his eyes and looked at Jiang Jun with slight astonishment, but accidentally fell into Jiang Jun's black eyes that were growing deeper and deeper.
It seemed that he was only putting on an act in front of her mother, but his words were deeply shocked in her heart.
You and I could have given our children a healthy family, but why should we let them be the only victims of our relationship?
The words he said were repeated in her ears, making her unable to let them go for a long time.
Jiang Jun continued to speak as she looked at Gu Qingyou's slightly pale face, "You should consider having children?? Do you really want me to fight with you for the custody of a child? "
Gu Qingyou sat on the side of the bed in a daze. Was what he said true? Would he fight with her for the custody of the child?
She stared at him, but her eyes were full of fear.
So even if she decided to stay in Mrs Jiang until three months from now to undergo surgery, wouldn't he be willing to give her the custody of his child?
she asked with her eyes.
Jiang Jun looked at her, what she was thinking from the bottom of her heart was clear to him at first glance. However, he did not give her a clear response even after a while.
Intense emotions surged in Gu Qingyou's clear eyes, and she stared at him even more intensely.
Just like that, he sized up her resolute gaze that strongly desired to obtain the child's custody. Something seemed to flash past in his gloomy eyes, but even he himself did not notice.
Gu Qingyou waited for a long time, but in her heart, she still did not believe that he would make things difficult for her.
Finally, Jiang Jun shook his head at her.
Seeing that he had given her a clear answer, she felt relieved.
She thanked him for not causing her pain over the child.
In the end, she was still the Jiang Jun who wouldn't hurt her.
Gu Qingyou showed him her gratitude with her eyes. Then, she took a light breath and continued to play. The child is mine, and you have no right to ask me for the child's custody."
"You know, with my ability, it's easy for me to get custody of my children."
"Are you really going to force me like this?"
"If you don't want to think for your child, you can only go that far... Of course, if you are willing to stay with your child, the future is clear to you and your child."
"Bright?" Gu Qingyou deliberately said with a disdainful tone, "Are you threatening me now? If I choose to leave, will you make my future uncertain?"
"Yes, it will be hard for you to compete with me for the right to take care of your child, and eventually you will not get the right to take care of your child, which will make you live in pain and regret for the rest of your life." Jiang Jun said calmly.
Gu Qingyou lifted her lowered eyelids once again and looked at him.
Jiang Jun's deep black eyes gave her a trace of gentleness.
After confirming that he was still only putting on an act, and his gentle eyes revealed that he would fulfill his promise to her, she did not panic anymore, and pretended to be sullen: "Jiang Jun, don't go too far!"
"Is that so?" Although her words were rebuttal, Jiang Jun looked at her calmly. I think it was you who went too far, you who deprived me of the right to be a father."
Gu Qingyou was stu ed.
Since the act had come to this point, it could already be concluded, but the words that Jiang Jun said caused Gu Qingyou to be genuinely startled by the side of the bed. She does seem to have deprived him of the right to be a father...
Jiang Jun coldly turned around and prepared to leave.
Gu Qingyou stared at Jiang Jun's tall and straight back, her heart mourning.
Before Jiang Jun opened her slender legs, she said in the end, "Think carefully about it?? A broad road, or a dark road without daylight, is up to you to decide." With that, Jiang Jun left the sickroom without looking back.
Gu Qingyou held her knees tightly.
Even though she knew he was acting, his words hurt her.
He was the father of the child, but she had deprived him of the right to be a father.
Mrs Jiang chose to wake up five hours after the surgery ended. It was already close to noon.
"Mom??"
Gu Qingyou saw Mrs Jiang slowly open her eyes, and quickly got up from the chair beside him.
Although Mrs Jiang had lied to her, she understood Mrs Jiang's intentions. She would not blame her elder in the slightest, but she felt even more guilty because of her. Therefore, even if she accompanied her elder without rest, she would not complain at all.
Mrs Jiang's breathing became erratic, "Quiet??"
Seeing Mrs Jiang's hand coming out from under the blanket, Gu Qingyou held it tightly."Mom, I'm here??"
"Just then, I thought I was dreaming. I thought it was only in my dreams that you would be by my mother's side??"
Gu Qingyou felt her nose sour. Mother, this is not a dream, I am by your side, and Mu Mu is also at home?? " What virtue or ability did she have to make the Mrs Jiang love her so?
"Quiet??"
"Hmm?" "Gu Qingyou placed Mrs Jiang's hand on her own cheek."Mom, don't say too much. You just finished the surgery, and the doctor said you can't say too much??"
"Quiet??" "The Mrs Jiang looked at her weakly, her voice slow and hoarse because of her powerlessness. Can I ask you a favor? "
"Mom, tell me??"
"I want you to promise me first."
"Mom, no matter what you want me to do, I will agree."
"Really?"
"Really??"
"Then I want you and Mu Mu to stay in Jiang Family. What about your and Jiang Jun's wedding, which was postponed three years ago?"
"Mom??" Gu Qingyou's voice was hoarse."What Jiang Jun said was right, the Mrs Jiang actually requested this from her." "I??"
"Quiet??" Mrs Jiang's eyes slowly turned moist.
Gu Qingyou's eyes turned red. Even though she had already discussed with Jiang Jun, when she thought of how she would have to disappoint the Mrs Jiang in the future, her heart was in a mess.
Mrs Jiang choked with sobs, "Mother never begged you?? Will you promise your mother? "
Gu Qingyou did not answer immediately, because this was the only way to not arouse the Mrs Jiang's suspicions.
"Jiang Jun didn't want to reunion with Su Mo. She has always been alone for the past few years, and sometimes he is really lonely. He needs you by his side??" The Mrs Jiang's weak voice barely completed these words.
Gu Qingyou's nose was sore."Mom??"
"Don't you believe me? He really does not have any intention to reunite with Su Mo, and in his heart, there is no longer any Su Mo?? "
"I believe you, Mom... As long as you are willing to actively treat your body, I promise you?? "I promise you that I will stay??"
