Chapter 113 He Couldn't Leave

Xiao Rong looked into Gu Baisheng's eyes.

He lowered his eyes and gestured after a moment's silence, "Do you want me to leave?"

"This is the best choice for you." Gu Baisheng answered.

Then, Xiao Rong nodded, "OK, I will."

Gu Baisheng was relieved after Xiao Rong agreed on it.

Everything would be alright as long as Xiao Rong went to Gui Town.

The Xiao Family couldn't bother him anymore.

After that, she stood up and gave Xiao Rong his breakfast.

Xiao Rong was eating in silence.

The atmosphere in the room was somewhat depressing.

Gu Baisheng suddenly didn't know how to talk with Xiao Rong. It was probably because to some extent, she forced Xiao Rong into leaving for Gui Town.

She pressed her lips together and said, "Excuse me for a minute."

Then, she left the ward.

Xiao Rong drank some water and held the cup without saying anything as his eyes were downcast.

Under his eyelashes, his eyes looked dull and dejected.

What Song Shuang said was right. Gu Baisheng wouldn't protect him forever if he was always a drag on her.

...

Qu Xiaobo saw Gu Baisheng coming out from the ward.

Then, she walked towards Gu Baisheng immediately and asked, "Did Xiao Rong agree with your suggestion?"

"There's no better choice for him even if he didn't." Gu Baisheng said.

Gu Baisheng kneaded her eyebrows lightly, "I hope he can get rid of this kind of life after he goes to Gui Town."

"You have put into a lot of effort," Qu Xiaobo sighed and looked at her, "Other people will never go out of their way to help a stranger, but you did. However, he doesn't listen to you."

Qu Xiaobo felt upset for Gu Baisheng.

Gu Baisheng didn't care and smiled, "He is used to living here. He will certainly hesitate when he has to leave with someone else. The same will be true for you."

Qu Xiaobo heard her words.

She agreed with her after some thoughts.

However, what was the use of staying in his hometown as he had such a suffocating family?

It would be better for him to live in a quiet place.

Qu Xiaobo asked her, "Why did you come out?"

"He was having breakfast, so I come out to have a rest." Gu Baisheng answered.

She smiled at Qu Xiaobo with her hands in her pockets.

Qu Xiaobo looked at the ward and her.

She knew Gu Baisheng must have put forth much effort to persuade Xiao Rong to go to Gui Town.

Thus, she smiled and said, "Shengsheng, I saw Song Shuang going that way just now."

Qu Xiaobo pointed in a direction.

Gu Baisheng looked in that direction. There was Song Shuang's outpatient office.

Suddenly, she wanted to take a look at it.

"And there is a nurse beside him." Qu Xiaobo added.

"Really?"

Gu Baisheng's eyes trembled.

"Do you want to take a look?" Qu Xiaobo asked.

"No," Gu Baisheng said calmly like she didn't worry about her husband at all, "Song Shuang won't have an affair."

She believed in Song Shuang.

Song Shuang had been working at the Second Hospital for many years.

A lot of girls liked him even though they knew he was married.

However, Song Shuang had no gossip at all yet.

Over time, she had no idea what kind of women, except for Gu Baisheng, would attract Song Shuang.

Thus, she always felt relaxed.

She never suspected that Song Shuang would have an affair.

Xiao Rong rested in the hospital for about half a month.

During this time, Ye and Zhang Tiantian had visited him many times.

When Xiao Rong was about to leave the hospital, Zhang Tiantian showed him and Gu Baisheng a photo of her hometown and a design drawing of a house.

"I'll hire a construction team to build this house after you go to my hometown. Do you like the design?" Zhang Tiantian said.

She showed Xiao Rong the design drawing happily.

Gu Baisheng also looked at the design.

She smiled when she saw three bedrooms on it, "It's great."

There were three bedrooms in Zhang Tiantian's design drawing.

Then, it was obvious that one was prepared for Xiao Rong.

As Zhang Tiantian prepared a room for Xiao Rong in her new house, she had already considered Xiao Rong as one of her family members.

Gu Baisheng had communicated with Zhang Tiantian.

Zhang Tiantian was a simple honest girl. She was not calculating at all and was friendly to others.

Besides, she was hardy, responsible, and kind.

Gu Baisheng could set her mind at rest when a person like Zhang Tiantian would take care of Xiao Rong.

Ye looked at the design drawing in Xiao Rong's hands beside the sickbed.

He said in innocence, "Xiao Rong, sister prepared your room in the design, too. Are you happy with that?"

Hearing this, Xiao Rong smiled.

He talked to Zhang Tiantian in sign language, "Thank you."

Zhang Tiantian learned sign language on her own so that she could communicate with Xiao Rong in the future.

Therefore, she could understand what Xiao Rong said.

She knew Xiao Rong was saying thank you.

She replied bashfully, "You're welcome. You're Ye's friend as well as my friend. Ye and I have no relative, and you're our family since you'll live with us. There's no need to say thank you to your family."

Xiao Rong said by gesture, "I'm grateful to you for designing my room."

"It's a matter of course for you're our family," Zhang Tiantian answered.

She blushed as she looked at Xiao Rong.

Ye looked at his shy sister and Xiao Rong.

Then, he suddenly knew something and covered his mouth, sniggering.

Qu Xiaobo also knew what happened.

Therefore, after Zhang Tiantian and Ye left, she bumped her shoulder against Gu Baisheng's and asked, "Did you see it?"

"What?" Gu Baisheng asked.

She didn't understand Qu Xiaobo.

Qu Xiaobo whispered smilingly, "Zhang Tiantian, Ye's sister, likes Xiao Rong."

"Really?"

Gu Baisheng didn't pay attention to it.

"Are you careless or just pretending? It can't be more obvious!" Qu Xiaobo said.

"I didn't notice it." Gu Baisheng answered with a smile.

Qu Xiaobo said, "Just think about it. Zhang Tiantian and Xiao Rong are about the same age, but she has worked to make a living for many years. Now, she has paid off her parents' debts and saved enough money to build a new house for her brother in her hometown. What can we know from this?"

"She's hardy," Gu Baisheng said.

Qu Xiaobo patted Gu Baisheng's hand and said, "That's true. She is hardy, friendly, kind, and beautiful. If she likes Xiao Rong, Xiao Rong can get married."

Gu Baisheng hadn't thought about the future.

She listened to Qu Xiaobo's words and smiled, "You're overthinking."

"Xiao Rong is mute and lame. Zhang Tiantian will care for him for life, and that will be a blessing for him." Qu Xiaobo said.

She was making a plan for Xiao Rong.

However, Gu Baisheng just shook her head resignedly as she heard what Qu Xiaobo said.

She had no right to arrange Xiao Rong's future.

All she could do is save him from the cage of the Xiao Family.

The day that Xiao Rong would leave the hospital was approaching.

Xiao You became restless.

Bi Hao, her assistant, went to the hospital to see Xiao Rong secretly every other day.

It was the 14th day of Xiao Rong's hospitalization.

Bi Hao hurriedly went to Xiao You's office in the Xiao's Group as soon as he came back from the hospital.

Xiao You swiveled the chair around immediately and frowned when she heard Bi Hao's words, "What did you say?"

"Gu Baisheng was asking Xiao Rong to leave Beicheng," Bi Hao answered.

Then, Xiao You sneered with disdain, " What place can she send Xiao Rong to?"

"I heard that she has arranged everything. Xiao Rong will leave for another city with a woman," Bi Hao said.

Xiao You narrowed her eyes, "Woman? Who?"

Bi Hao answered, "She was the elder sister of a disabled student whom Xiao Rong knows at school. She has a thing for Xiao Rong, so she will take him away from Beicheng."

Xiao Rong was more resentful after she heard Bi Hao's words.

"Xiao Rong always seduces women by his appearance," Xiao You said.

Bi Hao heard what she said and suggested, "Miss Xiao, can we..."

"Shut up," Xiao You interrupted him before she heard him out. Then, she swiveled her leather chair and said acidly, "Dad doesn't allow me to do anything to Xiao Rong recently. You should also know what to do and don't get me into trouble."

"Yes, Miss Xiao," Bi Hao nodded.

He had been Xiao You's assistant for a long time.

He knew about Xiao You's temper.

Xiao You told him not to get her in trouble, so he dared not to do so.

Otherwise, Xiao You would take him to task if he ruined Xiao You's plan.

"But should we let Xiao Rong leave like this, Miss Xiao?" Bi Hao asked.

Xiao You thought about it for a while and said dully, "A disabled person like him will always be disabled wherever he goes."

"That's right. He is still a disabled person even if he leaves Beicheng. He can never threaten you." Bi Hao said.

Then, Xiao You sneered, "Have I said that I'll let him leave Beicheng?"

Bi Hao was struck dumb and looked at Xiao You.

There was a coldness in Xiao You's eyes. She curled her lip and said, "Only when he's dead, he won't threaten me."

Bi Hao lowered his head as he heard this.

He dared not to guess what Xiao You was thinking again.

In the hospital, Xiao You was sleeping in bed. The door of the ward was gently pushed open.

Then, a middle-aged man came in.

He saw Xiao Rong lying in bed.

A young woman behind him sighed, "He has suffered a lot."

"He didn't follow my words, or he wouldn't have suffered so much." the man said.

He was indifferent to it.

The young woman holding the man's arm looked attractive with the charm in her eyes. She said, "He's so pathetic now. Won't you help him?"

"Not yet." the man answered.

The woman said, "But he was almost killed by others."

"When the time comes, I will tell him how to save himself in Beicheng." the man said.

There was a scheme in his eyes.

The woman, however, looked at his eyes and rested her head on his chest. She listened to his heartbeat and said gently, "You're so bad. What's the use of forcing him like this? We'll gain nothing if he goes insane."

"That won't happen," the man put his arms around the woman's slender waist and said calmly, "He's much luckier than I thought."

"Lucky?"

"Yes. He's just lucky," the man nodded.

"Then he must be miserable in the future," the woman smiled, "No one can be a lucky dog forever."
