209, it's time to wake up from your dream
When Si Xia walked to the door, he happened to meet his father's attending physician.
"Xiao Xia, are you coming to see your father?" Director Li took the initiative to greet her.
Si Xia nodded, "Director Li, how is my dad's condition?"
"His condition is quite stable and he can be discharged from the hospital in this month. Recently, every time I go to the ward, I see him feeling depressed and lack of energy. He often holds a photo and looks at it over and over again."
"Thank you Dr. Li, I'll go ask."
Si Xia turned around and walked to the door.
The door to the ward is ajar.
Just as she was about to open the door and go in, she heard a long sigh coming from inside.
She paused in her steps and looked up.
Si Chenggang was sitting on the edge of the hospital bed, holding a photo in his hand and stroking it gently.
From Si Xia's perspective, we can see the scene in that photo.
This is a photo of Si Chenggang and Gu Xinmei when they received their certificates. It is also the only photo of them together.
"Xinmei, I don't know if you are doing well... It's not that I don't want to contact you, I want to think about our women... I'm sorry for you..."
Hearing his father's murmur and thinking of what Lu Xueyan had done to her during this period, Si Xia's anger suddenly surged into his heart.
She pushed open the door, walked in, grabbed the photo, and wanted to tear it into pieces.
"Xia Xia, what are you doing? Give me the photo back!" Si Chenggang quickly reached out to grab it, but because he was too anxious, he accidentally pushed Si Xia, and he didn't take care of it.
After snatching the photo over, he held it carefully in his palm. After making sure it was not torn, he looked at Si Xia and said, "Xia Xia, this is the only photo of your mother and I. What are you doing?"
When Si Xia was just pushed, his thigh accidentally hit the edge of the bed.
At this moment, she couldn't care less about the pain, "Dad, if you treat this person's photo as a treasure here, he has already slept with other men and lived a good life. Don't be stupid!"
"You...what did you say?" Si Chenggang was dumbfounded as if he had been given a slap in the face.
Before, Si Xia didn't want to irritate Si Chenggang, so he kept the matter concealed.
But now, seeing her father's obsession, she felt that something must be said clearly.
"Do you know the Lu family in City A?"
Si Chenggang nodded, "Of course I know one of the four major families in City A. But, what is the relationship between the Lu family and your mother?"
"Gu Xinmei works as a mistress for Lu Zhanpeng, and Gu Xueyan is Lu Zhanpeng's illegitimate daughter. Half a month ago, she recognized her ancestor and returned to the clan, and now her name is Lu Xueyan. Mrs. Lu was so angry that she was admitted to the hospital, and Gu Xinmei now has enough sex
After a while, I waited until Old Mrs. Lu was seriously ill and died, so that she could come into the house! Dad, what mother and daughter want is prosperity and wealth, and you can't give it to them, so stop wishing for it!"
"This, this is impossible..." Si Chenggang received a huge blow and muttered to himself in disbelief.
Obviously, Gu Xinmei had made a promise when she met him before.
As long as Si Xia can agree to the divorce and let Xue Yan marry Zhan Jiu Yan, she can reconsider their relationship...
Si Xia grabbed his father's hand and said, "Dad, I know it's hard for you to accept, but after so many years, it's time to let go of some things. Gu Xin's eyebrows are as high as the sky, and you can't keep her."
Si Chenggang himself understood these words very well.
However, she was used to waiting for one.
During the more than ten years since Gu Xinmei left, the only thing that kept him alive was to find her and wait for her.
Now I want him to give up...
Then what's the point of his life?
Si Xia held Si Chenggang's hand tightly with both hands, "Dad, without her and Lu Xueyan, you still have me. I will definitely accompany you and take good care of you."
She knew it would be cruel to tell her father this.
However, Gu Xinmei was like an old sore to her father.
If you just whitewash it and don't completely pull out the root of the sore, the wound will never heal.
and……
The reason why Si Xia made this trip today was actually because she was a little worried. Zhan Jiuyan had threatened her with her father that day.
She was really worried, so she came over to take a look.
Si Chenggang lowered his head and remained silent.
However, the photo in his hand that he originally regarded as a treasure was involuntarily clenched and deformed.
In the photo, Gu Xinmei's cold face also became distorted.
"Dad, are you okay?" Si Xia asked softly.
Si Chenggang didn't look up, "Xia Xia, I want to be alone for a while."
"I'll stay with you."
Si Chenggang raised his head, his eyes lost light, and he seemed to have aged more than ten years in an instant, "Xia Xia, you spent so much money to save me, I will definitely not be able to get over it. It's just... just this matter.
I need some time to digest, so you go back first, I just want to be alone."
Seeing that his father had said this, Si Xia had no choice but to get up and leave.
When she reached the door, she looked back.
My father was still holding the photo, motionless.
She bit her lip, even a little regretful, wondering if she shouldn't have told him the truth just now, so that he could live in a sweet dream, and maybe he wouldn't have to face the cruelty of reality.
Si Xia left the ward with a heavy heart and was about to find a place to sit and rest for a while.
Jingle bells, jingle bells!
The cell phone ringtone rang at this time.
She took out her cell phone and found that it was a call from the crew of Beacon Fire Beauty.
Call her at this time. Is there any problem with the clothing?
She answered the call immediately, "Hello?"
On the other end of the phone, Song Ci's voice was extremely anxious, "Xia Xia, are you with Su Zitong now?"
"No, what's wrong?"
"Something happened, something big happened."
"What?" Si Xia was shocked when he heard this, "What happened? What happened to Tongtong?"
"Beautiful Lady was finished filming yesterday. A trailer for a low-budget online drama was released early this morning. All the costumes of the heroine in the film are exactly the same as those in Lady of the Beacon Fire! Now the producer is furious and has become aggressive.
I found Su Zitong. I heard that her daughter was hospitalized, and the crew went directly to the Children's Hospital..."
"How is this possible?" Si Xia's face turned pale in shock.
"I also find it very strange. Although the clothes over there look cheaper, the styles are exactly the same. Now the topic of plagiarism from Fenghuo Beauty has been trending on Weibo. You should avoid Su Zitong for now.
Before you figure it out, be sure not to meet her, or you may endanger yourself."
"Director Song, I, I won't tell you anymore."
Si Xia quickly hung up the phone, ran outside the hospital immediately, stopped a taxi, and said, "Please go to the Children's Hospital."
The car started and she immediately opened Weibo.
Sure enough, the topic of plagiarism of Beacon Lady's costumes was a hot search topic, and the popularity is still rising.
