Gu Si’s thoughts wandered, blurring the line between reality and imagination. Her gaze towards Song Ling grew more mesmerized by the moment.
Noticing Gu Si’s intense stare, Song Ling’s face twisted into an expression of disgust. His voice, cold and distant, broke the spell, “We’ve arrived. Get out of the car.”
Gu Dai, too, noticed the piercing look in Gu Si’s eyes. Guessing her thoughts, she felt a sense of speechlessness. Shaking off her gaze, she was the first to step out of the car.
At the hospital, Gu Yin’s recovery was swift and remarkable, thanks to Gu Dai’s treatment and a tailored recuperation plan.
The doctors, witnessing her rapid improvement, couldn’t help but marvel at the Legendary Doctor’s skills. They would have stayed by her side, if not for the fear of disturbing the young girl’s rest.
Upon seeing Gu Dai, Gu Yin’s face lit up, her voice soft and endearing, “Cousin!”
Gu Dai smiled gently in response.
At that moment, Gu Si swiftly moved from behind Gu Dai to the front, embracing Gu Yin tightly. “Yinyin, Mommy missed you so much,” she exclaimed with emotion.
Gu Yin, suddenly enveloped in the embrace, looked confused, her eyes seeking affirmation from Gu Dai, “Mommy?”
Gu Dai nodded, confirming, “Yes.”
Gu Si, taken aback by Gu Yin’s disbelief, flashed a dark look but maintained a tearful voice, “Yes, it’s me, your mom. I’m sorry for being so busy with business abroad all these years. I neglected you, not even realizing how badly your father was treating you at home.”
Realizing the truth, Gu Yin’s eyes welled up. She held Gu Si tightly, her voice muffled, “Mommy, did you come back just because I was bullied?”
Gu Si nodded, “Yes, when I learned you were hurt, my heart ached. I couldn’t focus on work and took the earliest flight back.”
Hearing this, Gu Yin’s tears flowed more freely.
Gu Si continued, “Yinyin, Mommy really loves you. It was only due to work that I had to leave you with your dad. If I had known earlier, I would have taken you abroad with me long ago.”
Gu Yin, in disbelief, murmured, “Mommy, you do love me… I always thought you didn’t.”
Gu Si gently patted her back, “There’s no parent in this world who doesn’t love their child. Of course, I love you. And I came back to protect you.”
Immersed in a newfound sense of happiness, Gu Yin looked at her mother, “Thank you, Mommy.”
Gu Si inquired softly about her daughter’s recovery, “How are you feeling, Yinyin? Does it hurt?”
Gu Yin shook her head, obediently replying, “No, it doesn’t hurt. The nurses say I’ll recover soon.”
Relieved, Gu Si responded, “That’s good.”
The mother and daughter continued their conversation with smiles.
Gu Dai stood at a distance, silently observing their interaction.
After a few minutes, Gu Si glanced at her phone. She rubbed Gu Yin’s head with a sense of regret, “Yinyin, Mommy has work to attend to. I can’t stay. Be good in the hospital and listen to your cousin, okay?”
Gu Yin, feeling a tinge of sadness but uplifted by her mother’s words, smiled, “I understand. I’ll be good and won’t trouble cousin.”
Gu Si nodded with a smile, stood up, and picked up her bag. Turning to Gu Dai, she said, “Daidai, I’m grateful to have you. Without you, I wouldn’t know what to do.”
After a perfunctory expression of gratitude, Gu Si did not forget to address Gu Yin before leaving, “Yinyin, Mommy has to go now. Don’t be sad. Once I’m done with my busy schedule, I’ll come to see you more often.”
Gu Yin obediently responded, “Okay.”
Once Gu Yin acknowledged her, Gu Si hurriedly left the hospital room.
As soon as she stepped out, the tender smile on her face vanished, replaced by a smirk of self-satisfaction.
Children are so easily deceived, she thought. A few soft words and they believe everything. Leaving Gu Yin with Gu Dai was the right choice. In the future, I can extract information about Gu Dai from Gu Yin. Dealing with Gu Dai will be a piece of cake..
