Chapter 422: Reconciliation
“I’ve warned you before,” Yin Youting, who was held back by Jian Xi and Jiang Xin, panted heavily. He stared at Gu Zijin as if he wanted to tear him apart.
“If you let her get hurt again, I won’t willingly let you guys stay together,” he roared loudly, looking insane.
Having been punched by Yin Youting, Gu Zijin sat against the wall with his head lowered. His hair was usually combed meticulously, but today two strands of his fell downwards in front of his forehead. Qin Muxuan struggled to get down from the bed and squatted next to him. “Zijin, are you alright? Raise your head and let me have a look.”
“Haha, hahaha…” After hearing what Yin Youting said, Gu Zijin laughed softly. The more he laughed, the louder his voice became. Finally, he looked up at Yin Youting and his tears even came out.
The three people standing beside looked at him in bewilderment.
Gu Zijin patted Qin Muxuan’s hand and helped her lie down on the bed. He whispered softly, “Stay in bed. Don’t move again.”
Seeing Gu Zijin had calmed down, Qin Muxuan felt somewhat uneasy.
“Zijin…”
Gu Zijin walked towards the door. And as he walked he said, “You get out. Let’s solve this problem properly outside.”
Obviously, he said that to Yin Youting.
Unsurprisingly, that was exactly what Yin Youting wanted. He forcefully broke away from Jian Xi and Jiang Xin and said in a low voice, “You two stay here with Xiao Xuan. I’ll be back soon.”
Anxiously, Qin Muxuan wanted to get out with them. Yin Youting and Gu Zijin turned back and said at the same time, “Don’t move!”
She was stunned and her eyes instantly turned red as she felt wronged.
Neither Yin Youting or Gu Zijin had spoke to her so coldly since a long time ago. She had been pampered for too long, and she felt that she couldn’t stand being talked to like that.
Both of them realized that their attitude was not good, so the tension between them also was reduced.
Gu Zijin said gently, “Sooner or later we’ll need to handle this matter. Don’t worry, we won’t do anything stupid. Stay in bed. Be good.”
Yin Youting also followed, “Yes, Xiao Xuan, don’t worry. I won’t go too far.”
Looking at the two men, Jian Xi and Jiang Xin felt somehow that it was a little funny.
The two of them were clearly jealous of each other.
Jian Xi and Jiang Xin took advantage of this opportunity and walked quickly to Qin Muxuan’s side to comfort her, “Let them solve it themselves. We haven’t seen each other for a long time. Come on, you should tell us everything that happened.”
The ward door was closed and the slightly eased tension between the two men increased rapidly. The more they looked at each other, the more they disliked each other.
On the top floor of the hospital, the wind blew past the tall building nonstop.
Yin Youting walked up to Gu Zijin, threw a punch and struck him on his stomach.
He didn’t restrain any of his force and caught Gu Zijin off guard. When Gu Zijin sensed it, it was too late for him to defend the punch, so he could only take it head-on, which hurt him so much that he retched twice and bent down.
As soon as he threw his first punch, Yin Youting attacked again. Naturally, Gu Zijin would not just stand there and do nothing about it.
After defending the attack twice, he saw that Yin Youting had no intention of stopping. He got angry and fought back.
Just like that, the two tall men, both of them nearly 190 cm tall, beat each other up in the wind on the rooftop.
The sound of fists hitting bodies was deep and powerful. Just the look of it could make people shake like a leaf.
In the end, both of them lost their strength and rolled together on the ground like children. They even wanted to bite each other with their teeth.
Finally, panting heavily, they lost their grip on each other at the same time and fell to the ground.
“Gu Zijin,” Yin Youting said in a hoarse voice, “This is the last time. If you let her get hurt again, I’ll make sure that you never see her again.”
His voice wasn’t loud but was sonorous and forceful.
Gu Zijin didn’t laugh at him, nor did he get angry. He just answered calmly, “I won’t let you get any chance.”
“Ha, let’s wait and see. I’ll always keep my eye on you.”
Gu Zijin glanced sideways at Yin Youting. Then he got relaxed and looked at the blue sky above his head. And he got annoyingly smug, “Xiao Xuan has accepted my proposal. I’ll start to prepare for the wedding in a few days. And you’ll be my best man.”
Yin Youting sat up suddenly and said fiercely, “In your dreams! I won’t ever be your best man. I’ll be there as Xiao Xuan’s brother and walked her down the aisle.”
Gu Zijin ignored him and continued, “When it’s done, you’ll get out of the country and never show up in front of us.”
Yin Youting was so angry that he almost fell on his back. He pounced on Gu Zijin, intending to beat him up again. However, Gu Zijin turned over deftly and dodged the attack while saying, “How childish!”
Then, Gu Zijin stood up and patted the dust off his clothes. He limped and was ready to go downstairs.
“By the way,” he stood in the shadow of the door. “Yan Yuxiao was the one behind it. I’ve already sent her to jail.”
Gu Zijin, who stepped into the shadow, heard Yin Youting laughing behind him and the laughter became louder and louder.
His tensed mood also relaxed, because he knew that Yin Youting would not want to steal Qin Muxuan away from him anymore. He really let her go. The laughter was his blessing for both of them.
When Gu Zijin walked to the door of the ward, he heard laughter coming from inside. He pushed open the door with a smile and saw Qin Muxuan’s smile, and he was stunned.
How long had it been since he last saw Qin Muxuan smiling so freely? It was wonderful. Really, everything right now was as beautiful as a dream.
Qin Muxuan was about to greet him when her gaze fell on the bruises on the corner of his eyes and mouth. The smile on her face was instantly replaced by anxiety.
She wanted to get out of bed. “What happened?”
Gu Zijin moved much faster than her. He strode to the bedside and held her down. Jian Xi and Jiang Xin had walked away to make space for him before long.
Gu Zijin held Qin Muxuan into his arms, which made the latter a little shy. She couldn’t help but push him away, “What are you doing? We’ve got visitors here.”Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Gu Zijin smiled, “Don’t frown. Smile more. You were so beautiful when you smiled just now.”
‘Gosh, was his brain injured during the fight? Why does he say something so cheesy all of a sudden?’
Jian Xi and Jiang Xin couldn’t stand it anymore. They nudged each other and walked out. “Well, Xiao Xuan, you have a good rest. We should go find Mr. Yin and leave. We won’t disturb you anymore.”
Then, they ran away even faster than rabbits did.
Qin Muxuan couldn’t move. Gu Zijin hugged her as if she was a pillow and he rubbed his chin against her head.
She remembered how rude Gu Zijin talked to her before he left with Yin Youting and was still a little angry, so she said with a stern face, “Stay away from me. Just now you shouted at me. I don’t want to talk to you.”
Gu Zijin raised his eyebrows, “That reminds me something. I remember someone said that she was back with me just to take revenge on me, huh? Looks like it’s true. Sigh, I’m so sad.”
Qin Muxuan was speechless by his countercharge, so she stretched out her index finger and middle finger to pinch his soft skin hard to vent her anger.
Gu Zijin didn’t dare to resist. Instead, he smiled and said, “Xiao Xuan, when you are discharged from the hospital, will you come home with me to see my parents?”
