Chapter 811: I Am Still Not Interested in You (1)
“Even with all the plans and arrangement in place, CEO Gu was not confident whether he could escape unscathed at that point in time. It was not our playing field after all. And no one could tell what CEO Zuo and Zuo An had in mind. Despite that, he insisted to go.”
“Although he stabbed himself by grabbing on to your hand, the stab was real. He never planned on putting on an act so that you can escape from the danger. His injury was really serious. Fortunately, the location of his heart differed slightly from normal people, it was off the normal location by few inches. That was why he survived the incident after being stabbed in his heart.”
“We already had the doctors pre-arranged and instructed the doctor to announce his death to Zuo Si when she took him away from the residence and brought him in to the hospital. He was even pushed into the mortuary to convince Zuo Si that he was indeed dead. But he was immediately pushed into an operating theatre through the back door of the mortuary so that they could carry out the surgery on him.”
“CEO Gu was already weak from the poison that had been accumulating in his body all these. The stab wound added on to the danger with his life. Even the doctor had no confidence in ensuring that he survived the surgery. He signed a liability waiver agreement before he underwent the surgery and that he alone, would bear the consequences of his decision if he were to die on the operating table.”
Assistant Lin still spoke of the matter with lingering fear, although it was already in the past.
“The surgery on CEO Gu went on for a long time. I wasn’t there. I only heard it from Master Xu that he waited CEO Gu from dusk till dawn until his legs went numb from standing too long. It was as if the entire world fell into silence and no sound could be heard. He could only hear the doctor telling him that the surgery was a success.”
“Master Xu said that he legs went weak and couldn’t even stand when he heard those words from the doctor.”
“Gu Yu went into a coma after that. He only regained consciousness after more than half a month later, but…”
He stopped, as if dryness in his mouth prevented him from continuing. He swallowed his saliva twice and hesitantly asked, “Miss Xu, do you really want to continue listening?”
Xu Weilai answered without hesitation, “Continue.”
Assistant Lin wiped his face and sighed. He then continued his story slowly, “As the toxin in his body has been invading deep into his body, the damage would be lesser if he would carry out the surgery to purge the toxin earlier. He wasn’t willing, as there was only half of a chance that he might wake up from the surgery. He could not allow himself to fall, because after Mr. Gu Sr. fell, he need to protect the Gu Corporation, the Gu family, and you…”
“The toxin has invaded every inch of his body by then, especially his brain. It was a miracle that the surgery was successful. Although the doctor purged most of the toxin in his body, but because of the damage it had done to his body, there was nothing they could do with the remaining of the toxin left in his body.”
“So… it caused him to…”
Assistant Lin took a deep breath. “His memory stayed on the night of his car accident.”
“When he woke up from the surgery, he thought he woke up from the car accident.”
Xu Weilai downed the last bit of her coffee when he finished his last sentence. The coffee was already cold and tasted slightly astringent in her mouth.
Assistant Lin examined Xu Weilai’s poker face and immediately showered her with compliments. “Miss Xu, you’re really amazing. Even Zuo Si did not notice that CEO Gu replaced the fake Gu Yu, but you recognised him at one glance.”
Xu Weilai turned her sight towards the French window, watching the peoples rushing about their own business.
Actually, her guesses on a lot of matters was accurate, like the fact that Gu Yu did not die, the Gu Yu that Zuo Si got married to was fake, and the Gu Yu in the photo taken at the airport was real.
