Gu Zhiqian tightly wrapped his arm around Guan Meiyi’s shoulder. Guan Meiyi’s little face was still pale after the incident. Even so, she could feel Gu Zhiqian’s hand on her shoulder became increasingly tight.
Guan Meiyi’s body was suddenly lifted by the man horizontally as he strode towards the car with his arm firmly supporting her body.
Gu Zhiqian did not say a word until he got into the car. His thin lips were pursed tightly.
Guan Meiyi looked at him. He held her slender hand in his broad palm. The man’s big hand immediately enfolded her tiny hand.
“I’m fine,” Guan Meiyi reassured softly. Gu Zhiqian was upset over what had just happened. Guan Meiyi might have fallen to the ground if he had reacted a little slower.
Now that she was pregnant, the child inside her stomach had already begun taking shape. It was a living being. Gu Zhiqian could interact with this child and hear the fetus’ heartbeat every day. In the event that Guan Meiyi fell, it would have been hard to imagine what would happen to her. What would happen to the child?
The man held Guan Meiyi’s back, and his thin lips deeply imprinted her forehead. Then, he made his way towards her lips.
“I’m sorry…”
Guan Meiyi reached out and c.a.r.e.s.sed Gu Zhiqian’s handsome face. At this point, her complexion was already looking better. The woman smiled sweetly at the man and held his hand against her abdomen, allowing him to feel the child inside of her, “Baby, your father’s face is hideous now. Let your father know that you are okay and not to worry.”
The child in Guan Meiyi’s stomach seemed to have heard and responded to her words. The palm of Gu Zhiqian just occurred to sense the movement.
The man’s face lit up with a gentle smile. His previously cold and stern eyes were now filled with unyielding tenderness.
Guan Meiyi reached out and wrapped her arm around Gu Zhiqian’s neck. She kissed the man’s thin lips, “Baby and I are doing well.”
The car slowly drove home. In the car, Guan Meiyi nestled in Gu Zhiqian’s arms. “You injured Gu Zhilin today. The man is so sinister. Is he going to take revenge on you?”
Guan Meiyi still remembers how Gu Zhilin threatened not to let Gu Zhiqian in peace when they left.
Gu Zhiqian sneered, obviously not taking Gu Zhilin’s threat seriously.
On the other hand, Gu Zhilin was immediately rushed to the hospital. He had indeed broken ribs. In the beginning, Gu Zhilin wanted to call the police to press charges against Gu Zhiqian for the injury, but everyone was watching at the time. In the first place, he did reach out to grab Guan Meiyi, which almost killed both the mother and the unborn child. If he called the police, he might not be in the right; instead, he would make the issue known to everyone.
Gu Zhiqian and Guan Meiyi had so many fans, and the Gu Enterprise was already in a lot of trouble. The loss would outweigh the gain if the fans made a fuss and caused the stock that Gu Enterprise had finally stabilized to fluctuate again.
Gu Zhilin realized he could only give up on contacting the police, but this resentment could not be swallowed. Gu Zhiqian kept wondering what the old man had said to Gu Zhiqian.
During the period when Gu Zhilin was hospitalized, there were some changes within the Gu Enterprise. When the old chairman had passed away, Gu Zhilin should logically take over the new chairman position. However, the Gu family members and the company’s shareholders had lost confidence in Gu Zhilin. They did not believe that Gu Zhilin could lead the company out of this predicament.
In a blink of an eye, Guan Meiyi was nearly seven months pregnant. The gender of the child was still unknown to her. Zhao Huimin was feeling a little anxious. She had already asked Guan Meiyi to check the gender, but Guan Meiyi said to let nature takes its course. Gu Zhiqian was the only option left to her as an alternative path.
