Chapter 404: Feng Huaqiang’s Birthday Banquet_1
In the hospital room, Gu Ying sat beside Su Chengyu, a look of guilt written all over her face. She couldn’t help but feel down as she clearly remembered how skilled Su Chengyu was. How could he have been injured by Sun Kai?
"Elder brother Cheng, I’m so sorry. I was the one who put you in harm’s way. It was because of my issue that you were injured like this," she apologized.
Su Chengyu gently stroked Gu Ying’s cheek, "It’s okay, I’m fine now. You don’t have to be upset."
"How can you be fine?! I almost died from fear! You were stabbed several times and covered in blood." Gu Ying expressed her worry and concern.
Su Chengyu lifted the blanket and his clothes, jumped out of the hospital bed, startling Gu Ying. There was no wound on Su Chengyu’s abdomen, not even the slightest trace of one.
"How is that possible? I clearly saw you being stabbed. The doctor even had to sew up your wound..."
Su Chengyu gestured for her to be silent. "This is my secret. Don’t tell anyone else. If I could cure Little Shuang from a severe injury, this small wound of mine is nothing. I purposely let them wound me. That person was too dangerous and didn’t care about anyone. I feared he might seek revenge on you and your daughter, but I couldn’t kill him, so I took this desperate measure instead."
This finally dawned on Gu Ying. She recalled how Su Chengyu had resuscitated a dying Gu Xiao Shuang and understood her own confusion due to extreme concern. She appreciated Su Chengyu’s intent even more.
Gu Ying pressed her lips together, darted over in a flurry, and hugged Su Chengyu, her eyes welling with tears, "You really scared me to death."
"It’s okay, everything is fine now," Su Chengyu consoled her.
"Elder brother Cheng, thank you for going to such lengths for my sake," Gu Ying whispered in Su Chengyu’s ear.
