bullets and roses

Li Mei took away a 100 million check, and Gu Zhubai closed the door.

The assistant was very puzzled. After all, in his impression, Gu Zhubai was not the kind of person who would be easily threatened, so either he gave the check willingly, or Li Mei had something very special in his hand. things, but he didn't dare to ask more, he could only stand aside and observe Gu Zhubai's expression.

Gu Zhubai stood by the floor-to-ceiling window and smoked a whole cigarette before saying in a hoarse voice, "Go follow her and see how she is doing now."

The assistant responded and went out to make arrangements.

Gu Zhubai extinguished the faint star light of the cigarette in his hand, and then let out a long breath of foul air.

He had never thought about Li Mei before, but now he felt something unusual.

If Li Mei was really a good mother, then Li Yuan'an would not have gone home during the Chinese New Year, nor would Li Yuan'an have been dead for so long and still trying to find ways to use up his value.

Gu Zhubai also suddenly thought that the reason why Li Yuanan wanted to go back on the day of the fire was actually Li Mei's message to him.

The details that had been ignored at the beginning were suddenly magnified at this moment. Although Gu Zhubai did not think that the Luo family was completely innocent, he suddenly realized that maybe Li Mei was not that pure.

He wanted to find out what kind of role Li Mei played in it.

The assistant returned to the office after arranging everything. Gu Zhubai had already been sitting on a chair to deal with business affairs for a while. He stood firm and asked, "Mr. Gu, where are you going now?"

Gu Zhubai paused: "Go back to the hospital."

Luo Muxiao was not asleep, so he knew when Gu Zhubai came in.

But he didn't have much strength in his whole body, so he didn't move a bit. He just opened his eyes and looked at the dark sky outside the window, and he couldn't even find a single star.

In fact, he didn't think about anything, he was so weak that he didn't even think about it.

Gu Zhubai spent less and less time in a wheelchair these days, he walked in, he naturally noticed that Luo Muxiao hadn't rested yet, so he stepped forward and closed the curtains to block Luo Muxiao's sight He rolled up his sleeves and asked, "Why haven't you slept yet?"

Luo Muxiao didn't respond.

Gu Zhubai continued: "The doctor said that your current physical condition needs more rest, otherwise you will easily go wrong. It's almost here, if you don't sleep, do you want to go into the operating room again tomorrow?"

Luo Muxiao couldn't see the sky outside, so he finally moved his eyes, looked at Gu Zhubai, and then slowly closed his eyes.

"Don't want to see me?"

Luo Muxiao gave a "hmm".

Gu Zhubai's expression looked a little helpless, he sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out his hand to touch Luo Muxiao's cheek, it was cold.

Luo Muxiao backed away, avoiding it, he seemed to really not want to be touched by Gu Zhubai.

Gu Zhubai rubbed his head, and asked him: "What are you thinking? You haven't slept until now."

His actions are really too intimate, if he didn't know that the relationship between the two is not like that at all, Luo Muxiao might fall into the sugar-coated shells of the other party again.

But he clearly knew that the moment when Gu Zhubai was gentle belonged to Li Yuanan.

Luo Muxiao turned over, turned his back to Gu Zhubai and closed his eyes.

Gu Zhubai sat by the bed for a while, probably thinking that Luo Muxiao had fallen asleep, so he got up lightly and walked outside.

As soon as he opened the door, Luo Muxiao closed his eyes and asked, "Gu Zhubai, do I want to be locked up by you for the rest of my life?"

Gu Zhubai turned his head and glanced at him: "What's wrong?"

Luo Muxiao met his eyes, stared at him blankly for a long time, and then said extremely slowly: "You can't lock up a person for the rest of your life. If I want to seek death, I will have [-] ways." There is always a time for you to relax.”

Gu Zhubai seemed to be very reluctant to hear the word "suicide", and frowned: "Don't talk nonsense."

Luo Muxiao turned over, turned his back to Gu Zhubai, and covered his head under the quilt.

His voice hummed from inside: "I'm going to rest."

"Good night." Gu Zhubai had no choice but to say so.

Luo Muxiao thought about whether to directly question Gu Zhubai about the Gong family.

But now he is no longer as reckless as before. He knows not to say everything in his head, no matter who he treats, don't give complete trust and dependence, maybe the other party will stab you in the back at any time.

So after thinking twice, Luo Muxiao didn't say anything.

He was afraid that Gu Zhubai would act more ruthlessly after asking, leaving the Gong family powerless to fight back.

Luo Muxiao doesn't know anything about business matters. He doesn't know why the interests of the Gong family and the Gu family are involved. He just thinks that since Gu Zhubai is capable of bringing down the Luo family, he must also make the Gong family His family was affected, so he didn't dare to act rashly at all, he could only take one step at a time.

But as far as his current situation is concerned, it is true that he can only take one step at a time.

Probably because there were too many random things in his mind, Luo Muxiao had a fever the next day.

When Gu Zhubai came at noon, he was still asleep. Gu Zhubai realized something was wrong, so he lifted the quilt and saw that his face was flushed, and his forehead was completely hot when he touched it.

Gu Zhubai's face collapsed: "Why didn't you notice that you had a fever?"

The nurse turned pale with fright: "I'm sorry Mr. Gu, Mr. Luo kept saying that he wanted to rest, but I didn't dare..."

"Go out." With a sullen face, Gu Zhubai helped Luo Muxiao sit up, "Go and call the doctor."

After he was busy giving Luo Muxiao a fever-reducing injection, the doctor said: "Mr. Luo is not entirely physical, and sometimes psychological will also cause problems with the body's immunity."

"What do you mean?" Gu Zhubai glanced at him.

"...meaning," the doctor said after deliberating, "If you are in a bad mood and locked up here all the time, it will indeed lead to low immunity. Colds and fevers are fine, and the most feared thing is heart problems. Mr. Luo could have been discharged from the hospital a long time ago, but he has been locked in the hospital, and it is very likely that he will..."

Before the doctor finished speaking, he saw Gu Zhubai's face was very gloomy. He cleared his throat, and felt that he couldn't continue talking, so he laughed twice and said, "After the antipyretic injection, take a rest and take a few If you take the second medicine, there will be no problem, then Mr. Gu, I will go out first."

Gu Zhubai let out a "hmm", staring at Luo Muxiao's face, suddenly felt an indescribable discomfort in his heart.

Probably because this face, which had always been vividly facing him, suddenly became lifeless, which he couldn't accept.

Luo Muxiao dreamed something, Gu Zhubai leaned closer to listen, only heard three words: "Let me go..."

Gu Zhubai clenched a corner of the bed sheet tightly.
