Chapter 387: Chapter 386: She Divorced for the Sake of His Heart Chapter 387: Chapter 386: She Divorced for the Sake of His Heart The doctor saw Gu Siting’s frost-like face and his body tensed involuntarily.
When Gu Siting lifted his cold gaze toward the doctor, the doctor immediately started trembling in his legs.
“Fo, Fourth Master?”
This doctor had been treating Gu Siting for quite some time and had always been loyal to him.
Gu Siting also had considerable trust in him.
Seeing that the doctor dared not meet his eyes, Gu Siting felt a sinking in his heart.
It seemed that the doctors at the First Hospital hadn’t lied to him, his heart indeed had a problem.
And this doctor, whom he had always trusted, hadn’t told him the truth!
Gu Siting got up from the hospital bed, his tall and imposing figure steadily advancing toward the doctor.
The air in the ward instantly felt like it was about to freeze into ice.
The doctor turned pale with fear.
“Fourth Master, what are you doing?”
Gu Siting stood still in front of the doctor, his black eyes coldly fixed on him, “I know everything.”
“You… know what?”
“About my heart condition.” Gu Siting looked straight into the doctor’s eyes, word by word, his voice chilling, “If you don’t tell the truth now, I will throw you into the sea to feed the sharks.”
The doctor had been with Gu Siting for many years and knew his temperament well.
He always meant what he said.
He hated being deceived most of all.
But at the beginning, he had also made a promise to Mrs. Gu!
The doctor hung his head, not daring to face Gu Siting for a moment, “Fourth Master, I have never intended to harm you–”
“Then speak the truth.”
“But…”
“What, you are tired of living?”
Seeing the threatening look on Gu Siting’s face, the doctor knew he could hide no longer.
“It was Mrs. Gu who asked me to keep it from you, Fourth Master.”
Gu Siting’s eyebrows furrowed sharply, “What do you mean?”
“The bullet that hit you back then was poisoned, a kind of poison that is unnoticeable before a certain time period, similar to the gu poison of the Miao Ethnic Group, it’s alive, I didn’t know about it before.”
“Before you came to the capital, do you remember vomiting blood once and coming to find me at the hospital? That’s when I first noticed something was wrong with your heart, and I was planning to have you come to the capital for a consultation, because I had never encountered such a case before!”
“The very day Mrs. Gu’s senior brother found me and gave me a Golden Heart-protecting Pill, it’s a very precious medicine pill not available on the market, which can protect your heart temporarily.”
“Mrs. Gu’s senior brother said that Mrs. Gu would find you a suitable heart, but I needed to keep it a secret. I thought at the time, since Mrs. Gu had given you such an expensive Heart-protecting Pill, she would never harm your body, so I agreed to her condition!”
“Fourth Master, that’s all I know of the truth!”
Hearing the doctor’s words, Gu Siting’s formidable frame froze in place.
In the depths of his profound black eyes, there was a mix of complexity and darkness.
In the depths of his heart, a sharp pain began to spread.
He had never imagined that behind his back, she would do all those things for him.
The Golden Heart-protecting Pill, he had heard of it before, a rare and valuable pill in this world.
It was only available at the Tang Sect, wasn’t it?
He remembered, when his birthday was approaching, she had returned to the Tang Sect.
Could it have been for that Golden Heart-protecting Pill?
He needed a heart transplant, and his blood type was rare, finding a suitable heart wouldn’t be easy!
Could it be that she had reached some agreement with the people from the Tang Sect?
Right now, Gu Siting’s mind was in utter chaos.
He walked over to the hospital bed and called Jing Hang.
But he couldn’t get through.
Jing Hang was in Ming Yao’s gang; if she told him to keep his mouth shut, he definitely wouldn’t reveal anything.
Gu Siting furrowed his brows and called Yanxi again.
After running out last night, Yanxi bought his own alcohol and drank himself into oblivion, only having just woken up.
Upon receiving the call from Gu Siting, his voice was somewhat hoarse, “Fourth Brother, is there something you need?”
“I need you to find out some information about Xia Yiwan for me.”
…
Yan Family.
After Xia Yiwan was brought back to the Yan Family by Lu Zhou last night, she fell asleep on the bed.
When she woke up in the morning, Mother Yan had prepared her breakfast and some honey water.
After eating, she took a bath and then went back to bed for another nap.
By afternoon, her spirits were somewhat lifted.
At the Yan Family, she could still feel the warmth; Old Lady Yan, Mr. Yan, and Mother Yan were all very kind to her.
The only unfortunate part was that Yanxi did not harbor feelings for her.
Xia Yiwan had come to terms with it, knowing that love cannot be forced.
Yanxi’s reaction yesterday was within her expectations.
She went to the study and prepared a divorce agreement.
Being able to marry into the Yan Family for a while, becoming Mother Yan’s daughter-in-law, and receiving her affection, she was content!
She would not cling desperately to him; she would give Yanxi his freedom.
Yanxi returned in the evening; the servants had already prepared the meal, and Mother Yan called Xia Yiwan upstairs.
As soon as Xia Yiwan arrived at the dining room, she saw Yanxi.
Yanxi’s handsome face betrayed no emotion, and when he saw Xia Yiwan, he glanced at her before quickly averting his eyes.
Throughout the meal, Xia Yiwan ate without tasting a thing.
After the meal, Yanxi headed upstairs first.
Mother Yan, seeing that Yanxi did not even speak to Xia Yiwan, scolded him a few times, “You heartless boy, you don’t know how to cherish your own wife.”
Mother Yan pulled Xia Yiwan aside, increasingly fond of such a spirited and lovely daughter-in-law. Compared to the woman whom Yanxi liked back then, she was worlds better.
What mattered most was that the other woman’s affections were not with Yanxi, yet he was so devoted to her!
And for that woman, he even considered staying unmarried for life!
Thinking of past events, Mother Yan felt so angry that it pained her heart and lungs!
“I’ve explained it to that ungrateful boy. If he still gives you the cold shoulder, tell me, and I’ll set him straight!”
Xia Yiwan felt a sourness in her heart.
She planned to bring up the divorce with Yanxi later on!
“Mom, thank you.”
When Xia Yiwan went upstairs, Yanxi had just come out of the shower.
He wore a dark blue bathrobe, loosely tied, with the V-neck exposing his clavicle and a hint of his chest, looking incredibly sexy.
Xia Yiwan did not stare. She averted her gaze and said in an obscure tone, “Yanxi, let’s talk!”
Yanxi poured himself a glass of wine from the cabinet, leaned against it with his tall figure, and raised an eyebrow at her, “Go ahead.”
Xia Yiwan extended the hand that had been behind her back, handing over the signed divorce agreement to him, “I’ve already signed. I don’t want any of your assets, a peaceful separation will suffice.”
Seeing the divorce agreement Xia Yiwan handed over, Yanxi’s handsome face tensed, “You want a divorce?”
Xia Yiwan saw Yanxi’s reaction and was somewhat puzzled.
Shouldn’t he be the happiest about their divorce?
What was that expression on his face? It was as if she had done something she shouldn’t have!
Biting her lip, she said, “Feelings can’t be forced. We don’t have any children, it’s not appropriate for us to continue together…”
Before Xia Yiwan could finish speaking, the man suddenly reached out and pulled her toward him by her waist.
Caught off guard, Xia Yiwan stumbled into his embrace.
