Chapter 559 - Chapter 563, she's here

Zhang Yuan cautiously enquired about Huo Nanchen's accident, and Gu Ruochu answered all of her questions calmly.

Zhang Yuan had a guilty conscience as she said, "Ruochu, I have something else to attend to today. Your sister..."

Realizing that Gu Ruochu would be offended by the title, Zhang Yuan immediately rephrased her statement. "Ruochu, I found out that Tangxi called Nanchen on the night she disappeared. Do you know where Tangxi is?"

When she heard Zhang Yuan's question, Gu Ruochu's originally calm heart instantly sank.

Her mother had come to the hospital to ask her about Ning Tangxi. Gu Ruochu finally understood that Zhang Yuan would always take Ning Tangxi's side.

The bond between them was strong, and Gu Ruochu had no chance of taking Ning Tangxi's position in Zhang Yuan's heart.

Zhang Yuan would never make up for the hurt she had caused Gu Ruochu in the twenty years she had abandoned her.

A cold look flashed in Gu Ruochu's eyes.

When she saw that Gu Ruochu's mood had changed, Zhang Yuan quickly opened her mouth to explain.

"Ruochu, Mother didn't mean to..."

"Don't use that word to disgust me again!" Gu Ruochu looked like a hedgehog with its guard up. She flung Zhang Yuan's hand away and said coldly, "I don't have a mother. I was born without one, and I won't have one in the future."

"Ruochu!"

Zhang Yuan's eyes immediately teared up. Her heart ached as she sobbed, "How can you say that? I'm your mother."

At that moment, tears streamed down Gu Ruochu's face. She quickly wiped them away and roared, "I don't have a mother! Madam Ning, please leave! It's too noisy here, and I'm afraid that Nanchen won't sleep well."

Gu Ruochu felt a dull pain in her heart as she said the last sentence. She buried her head by the bed and did not have the strength to support herself.

'Nanchen, please wake up.

'Please wake up!

'I'm sad.

'I'm scared.

'I'm lonely.'

An endless wave of grief surged through Gu Ruochu's heart. The warmth of Huo Nanchen's body and the sound of his steady breathing were the only things that gave her comfort.

In the future, she wouldn't want anyone but Huo Nanchen.

"Ruochu."

Zhang Yuan felt devastated when she saw Gu Ruochu's sad state. Unfortunately, there was nothing she could do to comfort her daughter.

Gu Ruochu leaned against the bed and sobbed. Suddenly, she felt a hand stroke her hair gently. Gu Ruochu's body stiffened, and she raised her head slowly.

"Don't cry." Huo Nanchen's voice was hoarse, and he opened his eyes slightly. Gu Ruochu quickly got up and kissed his thin lips. Her hot tears fell on his scarred face.

"Nanchen, you're awake?"

Gu Ruochu stared at him in disbelief. Her trembling hand landed on his cheekbones. "Nanchen, can you hear me?"

"Yes."

Even though he was not fully conscious, hearing Gu Ruochu cry had made Huo Nanchen's heart to throb in pain.

However, he felt happy to hear her voice.

Gu Ruochu was by his side at the hospital. Huo Nanchen knew that he had accomplished his goal.
