Then shortly after, the knife was pulled out with such force that she clutched her abdomen and collapsed in devastation.
“At that time, my mind was blank. Because I didn’t believe that Gong Fan would stab me.”
The fruit knife that Yun Shishi was using was brought from home. Its workmanship was meticulous. Otherwise, if it had been pulled out with this sort of force, the handle and blade would have been separated by the huge suction force of the flesh.
At that time, she was fortunate on two counts. One was that Little Yichen had arrived in time to stop Gong Fan, just as the latter was about to stab her again with the fruit knife. The other was, despite the fact that the knife had been removed from her body, causing massive bleeding in the wound, Yun Shishi was in the hospital when this happened. If this had happened at home or more than a 30-minute drive from the hospital, her life would have been in danger from excessive blood loss.
Little Yichen stopped Gong Fan and hurriedly called for a nurse. Right afterwards, Yun Shishi fell into a daze from the loss of blood.
Because of the intense pain in her abdomen, she did not dare to move, maintaining herself in that one posture all the while. When she was carried to the operating bed, the pain caused by the movements of her muscles was deeply seared into her memory.
Whatever happened after that, she had no idea. She only remembered waking up once after the surgery, when the nurse happened to be changing her dressing. Because the effects of the medicine was wearing off, she could feel that horrible wound in her abdomen. It had been sutured, but the wound was extremely hideous.
Where it was sutured, the flesh was angry and swollen, smeared with yellow iodine that contrasted with the rest of the fair skin.
She called for Youyou, but her words were a blur. The nurse thought she was crying out in pain and pushed the analgesic pump again. She then drifted back to sleep.
“Where’s Gong Fan?” Yun Shishi gave her husband a worried look. “Where is he now?” The man was silent for a moment, and that alone made her extremely nervous. “You didn’t lock him up, did you?”
In fact, she wouldn’t be surprised if he did lock him up. After all, Gong Fan was now a danger to everyone.
He replied, “I didn’t lock him up.”
“Well then… where is he?”
Mu Yazhe replied calmly, “I’ve asked Alice to take him back to the Hurricane Group.”
“Wh… what?” Her heart pumped nervously again.
Mu Yazhe knew Yun Shishi was agitated at hearing this, so he gripped her shoulders and said solemnly, “Now, you can no longer deny that Youyou is ill, and Gong Fan’s existence is his suffering. Didn’t you say before that you were determined to give up Gong Fan for him? As cruel as that decision may be, can you really bear to ruin his life for your selfishness?”
Her eyes widened at that! “I…”
“Do you really have the heart to do it?”
Mu Yazhe’s eyes reddened faintly. It was obvious that he had exhausted almost all his willpower in making this decision. “The boy is so young. He’s so sensible. Because of you, for you, he has to endure so much in silence. Now, he’s almost unable to hold fort. Can you really bear to drag the boy to hell just because you can’t bear to part with Gong Fan?”
