Chapter 149

‘My head is dizzy…’

Bai Weijin only felt that her body seemed to be pinned down by something, which made her breathless. ‘No, I have to get up quickly.’

‘I have to catch the murder who killed my father.’

Bai Weijin opened her eyes sharply and stared at the unfamiliar ceiling, with a strange feeling in her heart.

‘Why did I go to the hospital so often recently?’

“Are you awake?” There came Gu Yeze’s gaunt voice. “How are you? Do you feel any pain? I will fetch the doctor for you.”

Bai Weijin looked at the direction where the sound came. Then she began to glance Gu Yeze up and down.

His originally neat suit was a bit messy now. And there was a thick shadow under his eyes, as if he hadn’t slept for a few days.

‘Gu Yeze… doesn’t seem to be as bad as I think…’

With a spreading warmth through her heart, Bai Weijin’s tone of voice became more soft. She replied, “I’m fine. I just feel a little weak.”

Such a gentle tone made Gu Yeze feel stunned. ‘Why is she so soft today? It’s really rare.”

Then the two fell into silent. While the atmosphere was not so awkward, instead, it seemed to be a little intimate…

When Bai Weijin sorted out her thoughts, she asked slowly, “How is the attending doctor? Is he still alive?”

Although Bai Weijin showed a calm look, her expectation for the answer couldn’t escape Gu Yeze’s eyes.

‘How on earth should I tell her?’

“Hou Mingde died on the spot with a knife in his heart.” Gu Yeze hesitated for a while and answered Bai Weijin’s question calmly.

With the dim eyes, Bai Weijin couldn’t help feeling a little disappointed. ‘Sure enough, Tan Xin would kill all the witnesses. Dead man tells no tales.’

Maybe it was because Gu Yeze took care of Bai Weijin so devotedly that made Bai Weijin move. ‘Gu Yeze isn’t as disgusting as I thought, is he?’

“Do you believe me?” asked Bai Weijin abruptly.

Such rambling words made Gu Yeze feel puzzled, but he still nodded his head coldly.

“Before Hou Mingde died, he told me…” Bai Weijin paused and then continued, “It was Tan Xin that directed him.”

‘Tan Xin?’ Gu Yeze looked at Bai Weijin indifferently and asked, “Are you sure you heard her name?”

“Although I fainted in the end, I’m sure.” Bai Weijin looked at Gu Yeze firmly and said.

‘Fainted? Isn’t that happened before her operation?”

Gu Yeze frowned and asked, “Are you sure that you heard Tan Xin’s name? Besides, is there any evidence?”

In the eyes of others, Gu Yeze’s words were just normal inquiry and had no special meanings. But, in the eyes of Bai Weijin, it revealed that Gu Yeze didn’t believe her.

The little affection for Gu Yeze which Bai Weijin had just developed suddenly disappeared. Bai Weijin’s face turned dark immediately.

“Since you don’t believe me, I will investigate this matter on my own and don’t bother to ask you, our President for help.”

Gu Yeze, who was being blamed for no reason, was very annoyed. However, he wouldn’t explain to Bai Weijin out of keeping his face. So he could only radiate the cold air with his stiff face.

The temperature in the whole ward dropped by several degrees.

But Bai Weijin seemed to not see it. She also didn’t want to pay attention to him.

After a while, Bai Weijin suddenly recalled something. Then she averted her head towards Gu Yeze and asked coldly, “How is my father now?”

If it were just now, Gu Yeze might have considered his words and discreetly told Bai Weijin the bad news that Bai Hongbo had passed away.

But now, he thought it was unnecessary. That he didn’t leave directly was the greatest respect to Bai Weijin.

“Your father had been waiting for you in the operating room. After hearing that you are fine, he passed away.” Gu Yeze said impatiently, “The Bai’s family have taken his body and will bury him.”

Bai Weijin was shocked by the sudden news of her father’s death. Most importantly, why did Bai Hongbo know that she was seriously injured?

‘How does Gu Yeze handle these things?’

Bai Weijin’s nail were deeply stuck in her palms, which drew a line of blood. She bit her lips tightly, without feeling a sense of pain.

After taking several deep breaths, Bai Weijin restrained her urge to roar toward Gu Yeze. She managed to ask calmly, “Don’t you know that cancer patients can’t be stimulated? Are you meant to let him die early?”

“Won’t you block the news?”

In the end, Bai Weijin’s voice already became hoarse. Obviously, she was on the verge to break down.

The sudden charges made Gu Yeze shocked. ‘How can you blame me? The only thing I can do under such circumstance is to send you to hospital.”

“I saved your life!” Gu Yeze replied stiffly.

“So? You turned a blind eye to my father’s life just for saving my life?” Bai Weijin asked in disbelief. “You are the accomplice who killed my father.”

Gu Yeze couldn’t control himself any longer. He had to get out of this place quickly, otherwise, he would give this crazy woman a slap in the next second.

‘She is really crazy! Unreasonable.’

With Gu Yeze’s footsteps died away, Bai Weijin looked at direction where Gu Yeze left and laughed sadly.

‘It’s over. I have nothing left.’

‘My marriage with Gu Yeze is just a contract. And now Bai Hongbo passed away. Under such a big world, where is my home? Isn’t there place for me?’

Bai Weijin averted her head to face the wall and closed her eyes. She was really tired and needed a good rest.

A drop of warm tears slowly flowed down the corner of Bai Weijin’s eyes where others couldn’t see.

Standing outside the door of the ward, Gu Yeze couldn’t help but sighed as he looked at Bai Weijin’s weak figure that curled up helplessly. He didn’t want things to be like this neither.

‘Why did I always quarrel with her as long as I try to communicate with her?’

At this time, Dr. Xing made the rounds of the wards as usual. Seeing Gu Yeze standing outside the ward, he asked curiously, “Why are you here? Don’t you say that you will accompany Bai Weijin and won’t leave?”

“Whether I leave or stay, it’s none of your business.” Gu Yeze replied coldly. The two stared at each other and no one compromised.

After a while, Gu Yeze spoke again.

“She has woken up. You can check her body later.”

Then Gu Yeze left without looking back. Dr. Xing kept shaking his head in situ.

‘Can’t you just be more frank, like a man?’
