Chapter 1
"On the 23rd, Ms. Qiao Ruoxing, have your family members been contacted?"
The nurse didn't know how many times she urged her. Qiao Ruoxing lowered her head and looked at her phone. Gu Jingyan's call was still unanswered.
A series of rear-end collisions occurred on the North Third Ring Road Viaduct in Jiangcheng. A bus rolled over and fell into the river. Dozens of injured people were sent to the hospital for treatment. Family members arrived at the hospital one after another. Only her family members had not been contacted for a long time.
The tragedy of the accident scene is still before our eyes, but the fear cannot overcome the chill at this moment.
She suddenly thought, if she died in this accident today, wouldn't there be anyone to collect her body?
"Ms. Qiao?"
Qiao Ruoxing came back to her senses. The mottled blood stains on her body made her face white and transparent. Her voice was a bit hoarse, but she was embarrassed but still restrained. "I'm sorry, he may be in trouble. Can I sign it myself?"
"Sorry, if there is no signature from relatives, it is recommended that you be hospitalized for observation. The concussion may be serious or minor, and we will be responsible for your life."
Qiao Ruoxing pursed her lips, "Then I'll try again."
She took her mobile phone and left the ward. Two nurses passed by pushing an instrument cart. She turned slightly to give way and heard one of them say, "Do you know who is in bed sixteen?"
"who?"
"Yao Kexin! A big star! She is the female lead in that drama that was very popular a while ago, "Mysterious Lover"!"
"Oh my God! Is she seriously injured?"
"I had some scratches on my arm, but they all healed later. But as a big star, he relies on his reputation to make a living, so he is naturally more delicate than us ordinary people. If I want to be so good-looking, I wish I had insurance all over my body!"
"By the way, I also saw her boyfriend! Just a while ago, he was photographed with her at the villa in the middle of the lake!"
Qiao Ruoxing paused.
"He is tall and handsome. Judging from his appearance, he must be quite rich. The most important thing is that he treats Yao Kexin well. He rushed over as soon as the car accident happened, escorted him throughout the entire process, and you said he is also a woman. How could it be possible?
You are born to be a winner in life..."
The two people's voices gradually faded away. Qiao Ruoxing gripped the phone and tightened it little by little, her knuckles turning white.
Outside the sixteen-bed ward, Gu Jingyan was talking to Yao Kexin's agent. They were far apart and couldn't actually hear anything, but Qiao Ruoxing somehow felt that he was asking questions about Yao Kexin's car accident.
She took out her mobile phone and dialed Gu Jingyan's number.
Gu Jingyan paused and glanced at his phone. The frown he had originally frowned became even tighter now.
He picked up the phone and an impatient voice came from the other end, "What's the matter?"
"Where are you?"
Qiao Ruoxing's voice was hoarse and her tone was fragile.
Gu Jingyan didn't notice it and said coldly, "Company."
"Is Gu's Enterprise still involved in hospitals?"
Gu Jingyan paused and his face darkened, "Are you following me?"
Qiao Ruoxing wanted to laugh, but her eye circles were a bit red, and the boredom in his eyes made her heart tighten.
"Mr. Gu thinks very highly of me," she paused, then added, "I saw someone in the news who looks very much like you, just asking."
Gu Jingyan sent two words - "boring", then hung up the phone and turned around and entered the ward.
Qiao Ruoxing laughed at herself. It was quite boring. She had seen everything, but she had to make a phone call to humiliate herself.
Qiao Ruoxing was finally picked up by Tang Xiaoxiao. If she didn't have any relatives to contact, she actually didn't want to trouble her friends. No one wanted to expose her rotten life in front of others. Ridicule or sympathy would only embarrass her.
"Where is Gu Jingyan?" Tang Xiaoxiao asked.
"In the company." That's what he said.
Tang Xiaoxiao turned the steering wheel and cursed, "You bitch, your wife didn't even show up when she had a car accident. How can you make so much money to buy yourself a coffin?"
Qiao Ruoxing joked, "Maybe you're buying me a coffin."
Tang Xiaoxiao glared at her, "You are still in the mood to joke! There is a car behind you and people are dead!"
"Yes," she lowered her eyes and sighed almost inaudibly, "I almost died..."
Tang Xiaoxiao was in a hurry, so he dropped her off and left in a hurry.
Qiao Ruoxing arrived home, said hello to the nanny and went upstairs.
After I came out of the shower, the traffic accident that happened on the North Third Ring Road was already on the hot search list, but most of the entries were about Yao Kexin.
In addition to the official media being concerned about the severity of the accident, the entertainment media is focusing on Yao Kexin's mysterious boyfriend.
The media did not dare to disclose Gu Jingyan's identity, but only vaguely mentioned that this person was worth a lot of money. Yao Kexin's fans were busy helping the main character deny the relationship, and at the same time flooded the comment sections of major media to express concern about Yao Kexin's injury.
Qiao Ruoxing found it a bit funny. The nurse said that Yao Kexin only had a minor scratch. Are these people making too much fuss?
But soon, her face turned ugly and her heart shrank: Yao Kexin sent a pregnancy test form on her WeChat Moments.
She was six weeks pregnant, and six weeks ago happened to be the day he was photographed at the villa in the middle of the lake.
The time is right.
Qiao Ruoxing stared at the screen blankly, her heart balled up.
Three years of marriage, a blank slate.
Before Gu Jingyan married her, he was with Yao Kexin. Mrs. Gu looked down on Yao Kexin's financial background and forced them to separate.
Gu Jingyan was disheartened, and among the many famous ladies, he chose the one with the worst family background to rebel against the family.
The Qiao family wanted the Gu family's cover, and Gu Jingyan wanted her identity. The marriage hit it off and each got what they wanted.
No one knew that it was Gu Jingyan she was after.
In relationships, whoever is tempted first loses first. Yao Kexin's existence is like a thorn in her marriage.
She tried her best to ignore it and let it grow into her flesh, always thinking that she would be able to get over it if she endured it. However, this thorn took root in her flesh and tore her marriage to pieces.
Her persistence became the biggest joke.
When Gu Jingyan came back, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening.
It was quiet downstairs, only the nanny was there.
"Where is she?"
The nanny took the coat and whispered, "My wife went back to her room when she came back. She never came out and she didn't eat dinner."
Gu Jingyan frowned.
"I'll reheat the porridge and send it to my wife's room."
"No need," Gu Jingyan said indifferently, "She will come down by herself when she is hungry."
The nanny didn't ask any more questions.
Gu Jingyan took a shower and stayed in the study for a while. At eleven o'clock, he looked at his watch.
In the past, Qiao Ruoxing would come in with milk at this time, and even when she was quarreling, she would ask the nanny to bring it to her.
But today, more than ten minutes have passed since eleven o'clock, but there is no movement at the study door.
I couldn't stand the document, so I stayed there for a few more minutes, and finally got up and went back to the bedroom.
When I opened the door, there was no light in the room, it was dark, and I could vaguely see the person lying on the bed.
Qiao Ruoxing opened her eyes the moment the door opened. She didn't move. She felt that the seat next to her collapsed and Gu Jingyan lay down.
She turned over and reached into his pajamas.
Feeling the muscles under her palms suddenly tighten, her hands became more unrestrained.
