Back Then, I Adored You

Chapter 54-58

Chapter 54: Go As Far As You Can! (4)
When Qin Zhi'ai got up, she disturbed Gu Yusheng, who had been standing by the roadside without any reaction, like a statue.
His gaze moved slowly from the suit jacket to Qin Zhi'ai.
The torn dress on her had become even more ruined after the friction with the asphalt.
The bright skin that was exposed was smeared with blood, leaving not a single place intact. Even several streams of blood were flowing down her left calf.
Although the driver helped her, she still moved slowly, her left leg limping.
Gu Yusheng bent his fingers and then made a fist.
Like he was bewitched, he stared at her back and recalled her shout again—"Gu Yusheng!"
Had she already rushed over to me when she shouted my name? When she pushed me away, had she ever imagined that she was putting herself in danger?
With these thoughts flashing through his mind, he felt like his chest had been fiercely hit by something, and it twitched abruptly. He stood up straight, and rushed forward to grab Qin Zhi'ai's arm.
When he got closer, he could see clearly that her face was extremely pale. It was probably the pain produced by the wound that made her lips tremble slightly and numerous beads of sweat appear on her forehead.
He tightened his lips, saying nothing, then squatted down quickly, moving the skirt to hold her left leg.
His palm was so hot that she shuddered and moved her leg subconsciously.
He slightly increased the strength he was using to stop her movements, then looked sideways at her calf.
The wound was a little deep, and the flesh, cut open by a small piece of sharp rock, was bleeding endlessly.
Gu Yusheng frowned slightly. The next second, he tore a strip of cloth off of his shirt and tied it on the wound to stop the flow of blood. After that, he stood up and picked her up without asking for ideas or expressing his own, then strode to his car, pulled the door open, and put her inside.
–
On the way to the hospital, there were no words between Qin Zhi'ai and Gu Yusheng.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Gu Yusheng took Qin Zhi'ai to the department of cerebral surgery first. When they were waiting for the CT scan results, Qin Zhi'ai, after thinking for a while, sent a message to Zhou Jing with her mobile phone, telling her that she had been in a car accident and was in the hospital.
After sending the message out, Qin Zhi'ai stared at the phone, pressing her lips together, then raised her head and looked at Gu Yusheng who was standing not far away, looking out the window. She said, "I've sent a message to Zhou Jing, so she'll arrive in a while. If... you have anything else to do, you can just go."

In fact, she had been waiting to say that since he had parked the car at the hospital entrance.
When they were in the car, with many wounds all over her body, the pain suddenly increased, and she obviously felt herself getting weaker. At that moment, she was afraid that she would suddenly faint in front of him, so she clenched her teeth to stay conscious.
However, when they got out of the car, he had picked her up and entered the hospital, leaving no time for her to say anything. Then a series of cumbersome examinations had followed. Until then, she hadn't had a chance to speak.
It wasn't because she didn't want his company, she had been dreaming of that for years, but she knew very well how much he hated being with her, for she was living someone else's life.
She thought that if he hadn't been the one she saved, he wouldn't have been willing to send her to the hospital, even if she was injured.
What was more, just before he sent her to the hospital, he had told her to get as far away as she could if she saw him in the future.
Yes, get as far away as she could... Would he regard her saving him as another way to mess with him?
She was afraid of his misinterpretations, so it would better to explain clearly. Otherwise, she would always be the one being tortured.
Qin Zhi'ai looked downwards, and after a short moment of hesitation, she said softly, "Tonight was just an accident. I didn't mean to bother you by saving you."
Gu Yusheng frowned when he heard the first sentence. Is she driving me away?
The annoyance that had emerged when she had murmured repeatedly that she would never badger him in the car came out again at this time.
He ignored her and took a cigarette out, but when he put it in his mouth and was about to light it, he realized that he was in the hospital, so smoking was forbidden.
He became even more upset and took the cigarette out of his mouth. When he was about to put it back into the case, he heard Qin Zhi'ai, who was sitting behind him, say one more time, "Tonight was just an accident. I didn't mean to bother you by saving you."
Gu Yusheng's hand putting the cigarette away suddenly froze.
Gu Yusheng's silence made Qin Zhi'ai unsure if he had heard her, so she bit her lips and repeated again after a short pause, "Besides, I still would have done the same thing if it hadn't been you today..."
Before she was finished, Gu Yusheng threw the cigarette and the case fiercely into the trash bin nearest him.
Smashed would be more accurate word to describe the action.
Qin Zhi'ai knew that he was losing his temper again, so she was too scared to say a word.
As she had guessed, Gu Yusheng turned his head in the next second, and looked at her fiercely, as if he was going to tear her apart, saying, "Since you didn't mean to bother me, then get your hands out of my business!"
