Chapter 915 - 911
"..." Gu Xiaoning choked up, "Mm!"
...
Le Zhengsheng took out his phone and received a message from an unfamiliar number.
...It was a photo.
In the photo, Gu Xiaoning was lying on Su Hang’s back, eyes closed, with tears at the corners...
"..." Le Zhengsheng’s heart sank, darkness clouded his vision for a moment.
Suddenly, he laughed. What was he still waiting for here? Waiting for Gu Xiaoning?
Why didn’t he understand until now?
To Gu Xiaoning, he, Le Zhengsheng, was not special... he merely appeared unexpectedly in Gu Xiaoning’s world during her budding romance.
She had an initial fondness for him, but such feelings cannot last.
The fleeting emotions of a young girl come quickly and go just as fast!
Le Zhengsheng found Gu Xiaoning’s number, thought for a moment, and dialed.
Gu Xiaoning felt her phone vibrating, immediately answered, "Hello, Asheng..."
"Ningning." Le Zhengsheng’s voice was choked, yet he still called her the same as before.
"..." Gu Xiaoning broke into tears instantly. "Asheng!"
Le Zhengsheng choked back his tears and sighed, "I’m about to board the plane."
"Asheng..." Gu Xiaoning opened her mouth, not knowing what to say. The cold air of F City drilled into her throat, piercing her lungs painfully. How she wished he could wait a little longer, wait a little longer for her!
"Ningning." Even at this moment, Le Zhengsheng couldn’t bring himself to scold her.
He was always so forgiving of her, "You really did like me, right?"
"..." Gu Xiaoning felt as if her heart was being cut, "Of course."
"Then that’s all that matters." Le Zhengsheng closed his eyes, "From now on, I’m letting you go... I know I’m sickly, not likely to live long, let alone that even if I live like this, I always need treatment, and people... will get tired of it."
"Ah..." Gu Xiaoning opened her mouth but couldn’t say a word.
No, it’s not like that! She wasn’t tired of him!
Le Zhengsheng laughed, "It’s okay if you were tired... You could have told me, I won’t bother you anymore. From today, as I leave F City, you can pursue your own happiness. Truly, compared to me, you should find someone healthy to stay with you... until the end of time!"
"..."
Gu Xiaoning bit her lip, holding back her sobs.
"Ningning." Le Zhengsheng called her name one last time, "I’ll have the divorce procedures arranged by a lawyer... We will never meet again."
Gu Xiaoning clutched her chest tightly, feeling she was about to suffocate.
"Ah, ah..."
She wanted to shout his name, but it hurt too much! She couldn’t say it!
Le Zhengsheng sighed softly, "Ningning, I wish you happiness, we... shall not meet again."
A brief silence followed by a click as the call was disconnected.
"Hello?" Gu Xiaoning suddenly screamed, "Hello? Asheng!"
Even Su Hang could feel the deep sorrow that penetrated Gu Xiaoning’s heart...
He quickened his pace, "Don’t cry, we’re almost there!"
Gu Xiaoning couldn’t hear anything, only the cold wind rushing past her ears... piercing into her very bones!
At the security checkpoint.
Le Zhengsheng put away his phone, his aide standing behind him, "Young master."
Le Zhengsheng withdrew his gaze from the entrance and sighed softly, "Let’s go in!"
As he turned, he left only a tall, handsome figure behind...
At the entrance, Su Hang rushed in, carrying Gu Xiaoning, panting heavily. "We’re here, we’re here!"
"Put me down!" Gu Xiaoning patted Su Hang’s back, and Su Hang quickly set her down but held onto her, "Slow down!"
Gu Xiaoning couldn’t care less and stumbled forward.
Su Hang followed closely, "Over there!"
He pointed to the security checkpoint and seeing Gu Xiaoning stumble, he simply took her hand, "Come with me!"
Finally reaching the checkpoint, Gu Xiaoning was drenched in sweat... but they’d stopped boarding.
Gu Xiaoning looked dazed at Su Hang, "Have they... all gone in?"
Su Hang couldn’t bear it and nodded stiffly, "...Yes."
"No!" Gu Xiaoning suddenly went crazy, rushing towards the checkpoint entrance, "Asheng! I’m Ningning! I’ve come!"
"Hey! Miss, please control your emotions!"
"Sir, please keep an eye on your friend, okay? If there’s a disturbance, we’ll call security!"
Gu Xiaoning’s eyes were red, every hair on her body stood up, "Let me in! Let me in!"
Su Hang hurriedly embraced Gu Xiaoning, "Gu Xiaoning, don’t do this! What can you do by rushing in? What can you do by seeing him?"
"What do you know?" Gu Xiaoning raised her hand, bursting into tears.
"You, you’re all heartless! How could you make such demands? Tearing us apart alive... are you all happy now? You trampled on the blood and tears between my husband and I, even if you achieved something beneficial for the masses, so what? Can you be at ease?"
She fiercely grabbed Su Hang’s collar, "You tore us apart! It’s you! It’s all of you!"
Su Hang lowered his eyes, letting her vent.
"Ah..." Gu Xiaoning cried endlessly, unable to stop the tears, "Asheng! Poor Asheng! He thought I betrayed him! How heartbroken he must be? He came here, I didn’t even look at him properly... and we just parted forever!"
Exhausted from crying, Gu Xiaoning was spent.
"Mm!"
She closed her eyes, collapsing into Su Hang’s arms.
"Gu Xiaoning!"
Su Hang hurriedly held her, "Wake up!"
Su Hang was anxious and once again carried her, rushing outside urgently; they must get to the hospital.
Carrying her, he headed towards the exit.
Passing by the airport’s wire fence, Gu Xiaoning suddenly awoke again. Lying on his back, she looked up at the sky...
Just in time, a plane took off.
Gu Xiaoning blinked, tears ’plopped’ down.
Su Hang was startled, "You’re awake?"
Gu Xiaoning ignored him, she only knew... Asheng was gone, Asheng broke up with her!
The plane climbed the sky, etching a solitary mark in her heart... Guan Chao, garden.
Ou Guanshen held blueprints and placed them in front of Yu Sangwan along with the housekeeper.
Smiling broadly, "Madam, see... Are you satisfied with this arrangement?"
Yu Sangwan squinted, expressing doubt, "Secretary Ou..."
"Yes!" Ou Guanshen stood up straight, saluted, and responded loudly, "Madam, your command."
"..." Yu Sangwan frowned, "Lower your voice... Secretary Ou, why do I feel like you’ve become a different person?"
"Hehe." Ou Guanshen laughed, "Before, you were Yu the journalist, I was the secretary. Now, you’re the madam... Well, I’m still the secretary, but this identity has undergone a huge change, you see, naturally, I’m different, but when I look at you, you’re still as radiant as ever..."
"Enough!"
Yu Sangwan couldn’t bear it, "I say, isn’t the President holding a meeting, why aren’t you with him?"
"Oh." Ou Guanshen said seriously, "The President entrusted me with a more important task! The President’s and Madam’s wedding is currently the top priority."
His tone shifted again, still smiling broadly, "Madam, take a look..."
Yu Sangwan held her forehead, feeling a headache coming on.
