Chapter 46: Agony
Gong Siming froze immediately. Though the others didn’t get it, he understood instantly.
That was why her arm didn’t bleed at the beginning.
It was Gong Siming’s violence that deepened the infiltration of the ice blade and accelerated the blood flow.
Leaning against the wall of the operating room with a pale face, he didn’t know what to say.
“We honor your decision, Senior Cadre Si. If she wants an immediate divorce, there will be no objection.”
In fact, his words were meant for Gong Siming. Gong Yiyuan knew his grandson had feelings for Si Wan. But Gong Siming kept on hurting her, which reduced the affection to a burden.
He had to warn his grandson and force the kid to be honest with himself.
“I don’t agree!”
“You have no right to speak!”
He reproached his grandson coldly!
“But I’m her legal husband!”
Not reconciled, Gong Siming retorted.
“Have you ever fulfilled your obligations as a husband?”
Si Huating talked slowly and calmly, which rendered Gong Siming speechless.
“A husband who has never fulfilled his obligations still makes such shameless remarks! Do you really think there’s no one in our family who can meet your match?”
Si Huating was unexpectedly resolute.
Although the Gongs were extremely powerful, without the support of the Sis, they could never have achieved their current status.
Although Si Huating had retired for long, as long as he commanded, the imperial capital would undergo a dramatic change.
“Gong Siming, I need you to listen to me very carefully. This is not a negotiation, I’m just informing you!”
Gong Yiyuan was very disappointed with his grandson, and his tone was non-negotiable.
In frustration, Gong Siming lowered his head. Yan Xiuya looked at her son with pity. But she knew the sooner he experienced this, the better.
She wished her son could be enlightened and honest with himself as soon as possible.
At that moment, the place outside the operating room fell into complete silence.
Gong Siming buried his head between his legs so that no one could see the agony and helplessness on his gorgeous and grim face.
The all-powerful Gong Siming was experiencing unprecedented frustration.
The surgery lasted a long time. Over four hours had passed, yet there was no update.
Everyone was on tenterhooks.
“Ming, which part of hers was hurt?”
Gong Yanchen couldn’t help but ask since everyone was filled with anxiety.
“Her arm.”
He gave a simple answer.
Hearing this, everyone let out sighs of relief.
“But she was cut by an ice blade!”
Hearing that, everyone had a heart-in-mouth moment.
“Bastard!”
Gong Yiyuan couldn’t help but curse fiercely.
Ice blades would turn into countless ice needles and penetrate the skin.
No wonder the surgery had been going on for so long.
Deep down, Si Huating blamed himself. If he had intervened earlier, the tragedy today wouldn’t have happened. He couldn’t help letting out a sigh.
No one was more sorrowful than him. Si Wan was his only family at the moment…
Just when everyone was wandering about at a loss, the door of the operating room opened.
“The patient needs a blood transfusion, but our reserve in the blood bank is not enough. We’ve asked for blood transfer. Whose blood type is A? We need it now.”
“I am.”
Replied Gong Siming and Gong Yanchen at the same time.
“Alright, please come with me to have the blood test.”
Si Huating felt the whole world was spinning, but still managed to stabilize himself.
The two elders supported each other, and deep down they were extremely worried.
At the sight of the anticipation in Gong Siming’s eyes after the blood transfusion, Si Huating sighed helplessly.
There was no escape! These two children couldn’t avoid fate!
Another three hours went by, and the light of the operating room lit up.
The surgery was finally over.
The surgeon came out first.
“The surgery was successful, and the patient has passed the critical stage. However, she is chronically malnourished and is in need of more nutrition!”
Why was she malnourished? Si Huating glared at Gong Siming fiercely and then followed Si Wan’s stretcher into the ward.
Maybe it was because of his sense of guilt, Gong Siming just waited outside the ward and didn’t dare to enter.
A wrinkled and withered hand gently stroked Si Wan’s pale face.
“Silly girl, why didn’t you dodge?”
As he carefully pulled Si Wan’s clothes, he found the bruises on her neck.
The two children were really entangled!
“What could I say, the last time you were beaten black and blue, you didn’t let others know. Now you nearly got yourself killed. Hve you ever thought about me? If something happens to you, how should I live my life?”
While talking, the overbearing Si Huating began crying like a child.
He almost lost the most important person in his life!
“Forgive me for my self-assertion, but you need to stay in our home for a while, during which the two of you should calm down, and I could see you more often.”
Tears trickled down her pale face.
Si Huating, who had been watching Si Wan, reached out to wipe her tear stains.
“Alas, you are as stubborn as your father! Once you firmly believe in something, nothing could change your mind.”
He kept on talking, fearing that if he stopped, he would lose Si Wan.
Gong Siming watched it from outside with bloodshot eyes.
None of the Gongs left, for they wouldn’t feel relieved until Si Wan woke up.
“Grandpa, do you really mean it?”
His voice was like that of a dying person reluctant to leave. Weakness, hoarseness and grievance all mixed up.
Gong Yiyuan seemed to have grown ten years older instantly. His once mettlesome face was filled with senility.
“Well, it’s not my call, it depends on Si Wan.”
Si Wan’s will was Gong Yiyuan’s only hope now.
He could see that Si Wan’s love for Gong Siming was boundless.
For Gong Siming, she was willing to endure so many grievances and so much pain.
She was even willing to risk her life.
Now he had pinned all his hope on Si Wan.
Gong Siming smiled bitterly as if he saw the divorce certificate right in front of him.
“If you knew it would come to this, you would not have treated her like that!”
Feeling a little sympathetic for his son, Gong Yanchen spoke coldly.
Now he could see that his son did love Si Wan deeply. But there are things Gong Siming was unwilling to face, and the others couldn’t help him.
Indeed, if I had known it would come to this, I wouldn’t have treated her like that!
Gong Siming stood outside the ward like a sculpture and quietly stared at the woman on the sickbed.
He felt the whole world became vacant, and everything vanished except the man standing outside the ward and the woman lying in the ward.
Although he managed to force a smile, his heart was cracking and falling apart. To the point, he began to feel empty inside, which made him senseless.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Did it hurt? Was it painful?”
“Why would I want to keep the smile?”
