"…"
Gu Mengmeng's neck turned red when she heard this. He lowered his head and did not speak any further.
Gong Nanling held her hand.
His palms were covered in cold sweat.
"Mengmeng, I really …"
Gu Mengmeng raised her head and saw a layer of sweat appearing on his forehead. She hastily interrupted him.
"Why are you sweating so much?"
"I don't know either."
Gong Nanling whispered.
"…"
Gu Mengmeng's small hands broke free from his sweaty palms, stood up, and walked towards the door.
"Mengmeng, you …"
Gong Nanling only thought that what he said just now made her unhappy. He lifted the blanket and got off the bed. Half dragging his shoes, he chased after them.
Unexpectedly, he woke up too quickly, felt dizzy, and kicked the chair beside the bed.
"Chi …"
He couldn't help but snort lightly.
Gu Mengmeng, who had almost reached the door, turned her head in a flurry. Seeing the pained look on his face, she hurried over.
"What are you doing?"
"Mengmeng, don't go …"
Gong Nanling took a deep breath, reached out his hands and hugged her.
"I didn't …"
"Mengmeng, really don't leave me. I can't do without you, Mengmeng... "
Gong Nanling interrupted her and held her tighter.
Separated by a thin layer of clothing, the two of them stuck tightly together.
Breathing in and out.
It made his heart palpitate.
Gong Nanling was covered in sweat, as if he had just been pulled out of the water. Gu Mengmeng's clothes were soaked through to the skin.
"Gong Nanling, let go of me."
Gu Mengmeng became increasingly worried. She placed her small hands on Gong Nanling's chest, trying her best to push him away.
"No, I won't let go …"
"Gong Nanling, you're someone with a fiancee …"
Gu Mengmeng saw that she couldn't get away, so she said this out of her heart. After saying that, he tilted his head and looked at the bunch of flowers on the bedside table.
Perhaps it was because they had been released for the night, but the flowers seemed to have wilted.
This sentence caused Gong Nanling's heart to sink. His back suddenly tensed up and the hand around Gu Mengmeng's waist slowly loosened.
His head felt even more dizzy.
Gu Mengmeng pursed her lips and looked at him, her pale face covered with a faint layer of sadness.
Lowering his head, he turned around and walked out.
Gong Nanling stood blankly where he was, while the green in his eyes became deeper.
He has a fiancee?!
How could he cuddle with other women?
What should he do?
Gong Nanling felt as if thousands of silver needles had pierced into his internal organs, and even his bones were aching.
He backed slowly to the edge of the bed, sat down slowly, and lowered his head.
Gu Mengmeng brought in hot water. Seeing him in so much pain and anxiety, she also felt very uncomfortable in her heart.
He could tell that he loved her, but what could he do?
Since his engagement with Ning Qianyu had not been dissolved, they could not be together.
She had already decided to let it go, but the love in her heart was not something that simply did not exist. She wanted to come over and take care of him until he was well again, a kind of repayment for his feelings.
After all, in the 'dark' days after her mother's death, he had walked with her.
"Gong Nanling, change your clothes."
Gu Mengmeng walked over and placed the basin full of hot water on a stool in front of the bed. He also brought him a clean hospital gown.
"…"
Gong Nanling lowered his head and did not say a word, but his shoulders kept moving up and down.
Did he cry?
Gu Mengmeng suddenly felt a tinge of regret. She felt that she shouldn't have said those 'cruel' words earlier.
Since Gong Nanling was like this, she didn't know what to say anymore.
There was two minutes of silence.
She spoke again.
"Gong Nanling, hurry up and change your clothes …"
With that, he twisted a hot towel and handed it in front of Gong Nanling.
Gong Nanling slowly raised his head, the bottom of his eyes had a tinge of red, and his peach blossom eyes were filled with mist.
He sniffed at his reddened nose, pursed his lips, and said.
"Mengmeng, trust me, I will take care of this."
Gu Mengmeng froze for a moment, the corners of her eyebrows drooping and the corners of her eyes slightly wet.
Although Gong Nanling said this in a very light tone, his words were very serious.
At the same time that Gu Mengmeng was moved, she was also a little heartbroken.
She didn't say that to force him and Ning Qianyu to break off their engagement. She had intended to give up on this relationship. As long as he could be happy, that was good enough.
Gu Mengmeng lightly spoke as she pursed her lips.
"Change your clothes first …"
"Mengmeng …"
Gong Nanling raised his head and looked at her. The redness in his eyes was very glaring.
"Gong Nanling, I told you to change your clothes first …"
Gu Mengmeng was worried that his condition would worsen, so her tone became more serious.
"Alright."
Gong Nanling smiled.
His smile was filled with bitterness.
He slowly pulled the belt off his hospital gown, exposing his firm skin.
Gu Mengmeng's face flushed red as she turned her head away. He turned around, threw the cold towel into the hot water basin and twisted it again.
When she turned around again, she handed the hot towel to Gong Nanling.
Gong Nanling had already taken off his hospital gown.
Sweat covered his skin and bones.
Gu Mengmeng closed her eyes. She held the hot towel tighter as water dripped from it.
"Mengmeng …"
Gong Nanling felt like laughing seeing her shy. He looked at her and called her in a low voice.
"Wipe your sweat first …"
Gu Mengmeng closed her eyes and threw the towel in her hand forward with a feeling, then turned around again.
Gong Nanling took the hot towel and twitched his lips.
After a cursory wipe, he changed into clean clothes.
Gu Mengmeng walked out with the basin. Her cheeks were burning hot all the way out. In his heart, the cold Jade Key also grew warmer.
Gong Nanling lay down again. Gu Mengmeng sat beside the sickbed with him for a while. Seeing that he was completely asleep, she then went back to the sofa to rest.
After staying with them for the greater part of the night, Gu Mengmeng felt extremely tired. After a while, she fell asleep.
Gong Nanling slowly opened his slightly hoarse eyes.0
He sat up on the sofa facing the end of the bed and saw Gu Mengmeng's slightly curled up body.
When he was sure she was completely asleep, he slipped out of bed, walked over, and covered her with a blanket.
Suddenly, a wisp of green light attracted his gaze.
Gu Mengmeng lay on her side, and the Jade Key hanging around her neck slipped out of her clothes.
"Hmm? "What is this?"
Gong Nanling couldn't help but squat down, his rebellious eyebrows knitted together. His gaze tightened as he looked at it carefully.
He had never seen Gu Mengmeng with this thing before.
The red rope was slightly old, so it didn't seem like she had just bought it. Could it be that Gu Yalan left her a relic?
After some thought, he realized that when Gu Yalan had died, he had always been by her side, and hadn't seen such a thing.
This Jade Key looked a little mysterious, but also a little strange.
Gong Nanling stood up and went back to sit on the bed. He took out his phone and started searching.
