Chapter 709
Outside the window it is stormy.
Inside the ward, it was silent.
Chen Dong was not sleeping, so he sat in his wheelchair, his eyes red as he watched over Gu Qingying.
Even when she was asleep, Gu Qingying’s brows were knitted together and her face was in pain.
The pain of losing a son.
For both Chen Dong and Gu Qingying, it was terrible news.
After all the hard work of carrying a child in October, this was the result.
No one could accept it.
But as a husband, Chen Dong knew that he had to take care of Gu Qingying now, both emotionally and physically.
The heavy fatigue of not sleeping all night could not stop him from staying awake and watching over Gu Qingying.
It was only Gu Qingying’s appearance that made Chen Dong’s heart twist like a knife.
His face, which was already pale and bloodless, was not only in pain, but also drained and haggard.
It was as if it had aged by more than a dozen years in this one night.
“I’m sorry ……”
Chen Dong murmured a word, his reddened eyes, however, gradually narrowed emptily, revealing an endless coldness.
Ruthless, crazy.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Dong seemed to have changed as if he had become a different person.
His face was as cold as frost, cold and stern to the extreme.
“Harming my wife and son, the Gu Family …… has a blood feud that will not be shared with the heavens!”
A hoarse voice was squeezed out between his throat.
Pop!
Chen Dong’s right hand fell on the armrest of the wheelchair, with a force, the original plastic wrapped armrest, in response to the sound of cracks exploded.
Chen Dong’s right hand squeezed the armrest, and the veins on the back of his hand looked like a gnarled earthworm.
He did not even notice that the gnarled tendons along the back of his hand and up his small arm were gradually becoming a slight reddish colour, which was particularly opaque.
It had been raining for a long time.
Gu Qingying had also been asleep.
In a state of extreme weakness, the best way for the human body to recover is to sleep.
Chen Dong had been watching over her.
It was not until the sky was dark and dusk that the torrential rain finally stopped abruptly.
The blue sky was like a wash and the dusky sunset was gradually sinking into the sky.
Creak ……
The door of the ward opened gently.
Chen Dong looked up wearily.
Long Lao walked in first, closely followed by Gu Guohua and his wife who were full of panic and worry.
And after the two, Fan Lu also walked in carrying a thermos bucket.
As soon as they entered the room.
As soon as Gu Guohua and his wife saw Gu Qingying on the hospital bed, their eyes swished red and filled with tears as they hurriedly jumped to the bedside.
Chen Dong made a silent gesture, “Mom and Dad, let Xiaoying take a good rest, she is very weak now.”
“You ……”
Gu Guohua blushed and glared at Chen Dong in annoyance, raising his hand to fall, but was stopped by his wife.
Chen Dong had no thought of dodging.
Gu Qingying had been the jewel of his father-in-law and mother-in-law since she was a child.
Now that such a big thing had happened to her, her father and mother-in-law’s hearts must be dripping with blood.
Not to mention a beating, even if they gave him two knives, he would not have the slightest resentment.
The situation Gu Qingying is in now is his husband’s fault for not doing his duty as a husband to protect her.
“Calm down, go out with Dong’er and talk properly.”
Gu Qingying’s mother held back her tears and scolded Gu Guohua, “Do you think it was Dong’er who wanted this to happen? He’s more distressed about Little Shadow than either of us.”
“Thank you, mum.”
Chen Dong was sincerely grateful.
Only by truly experiencing it could one know just how forgiving Gu Qingying’s mother was to be able to say such words of relief at this moment.
The corridor.
Chen Dong pushed his wheelchair and leaned against the wall.
Gu Guohua was full of anger and turned around brazenly as soon as he exited the ward and closed the door.
Slap!
A slap landed on Chen Dong’s face.
Chen Dong did not dodge or dodge, and half of his face quickly became red and swollen.
This scene immediately drew the astonished attention of the people in the corridor.
Slap!
Without a word, Gu Guohua slapped Chen Dong’s face again.
The force was so strong that Chen Dong’s head was deflected.
The two slaps fell.
Only then did Gu Guohua hold back his anger and said with red eyes, “These two slaps, one is from me on behalf of Xiaoying, why did you, as a husband, let your wife fall to such a state?”
“The other slap is from us, the old couple, Little Shadow was our precious daughter from childhood to adulthood, we entrusted our precious daughter to you at first, but you have taken one step at a time, what has become of my precious daughter?”
The words were low and heartbreaking.
As he spoke, the tears in the corners of Gu Guohua’s eyes could no longer be contained and flowed down the corners of his eyes.
But at his age, he immediately turned his back to Chen Dong and lifted his hand to wipe away the tears at the corner of his eyes.
His voice trembled as he said, “Do you know? Do you know how long your mother and I have been waiting for our grandchildren? When we were about to give birth, your mother and I had already prepared everything for Xiaoying and the baby, but now ……”
The pain was immense, and there was even a hint of crying in his voice.
Chen Dong’s face was painful, guilt and self-blame surging up.
It was as if his chest was stuffed with stones and blocked to the extreme.
Compared to the slap on his face, his heart hurt more at this point, so much so that he could ignore the redness on his face.
It was as if his heart had been pierced by a red-hot knife.
Gu Guohua’s words, word for word, even as a parent, were already impartial to him, maintaining the utmost restraint.
“I’m sorry, dad, it’s all my fault for not protecting Xiaoying.”
Chen Dong felt guilty to the extreme, his nostrils sour as he bowed his head to Gu Guohua.
“Hoo ……”
Gu Guohua, who had his back to Chen Dong, exhaled a heavy breath, then turned around with a stern look, “Who did this?”
When the couple received the call from Dean Liu, both of them were struck by a bolt from the blue and panicked on the spot.
Dean Liu didn’t go into details.
The two of them also packed their bags and rushed over as quickly as they could.
As for what had happened, Gu Guohua was not clear up to now.
“Gu Family!”
Chen Dong said in a deep voice, his face as cold as frost at this moment, killing intent surging in his eyes, “Dad, this blood feud, I will personally take revenge for Xiao Ying and the baby!”
“The Gu family?”
Gu Guohua’s body shook, his eyebrows knitted tightly.
But suddenly, he felt a vicious chill come over his face and envelop his entire body.
He glanced at Chen Dong in astonishment, at this moment, it was as if a cold wind was blowing out from the depths of the Nine Mysteries, even he felt creepy.
How could Dong’er have such a strong sense of oppression?
Gu Guohua’s heart and soul shook, but he forcibly suppressed the bad chill in his body and said in a deep voice, “This Gu family, what is its origin?”
Chen Dong froze for a moment.
“Dad, you don’t know either?”
He did not evade and directly said the name of the Gu family, also thinking that Gu Guohua had traveled across the international market and should know something about the gentry families in the whole world.
But Gu Guohua’s response, let Chen Dong disappointed at the same time, but also some confusion, this Gu family …… in the end is how mysterious?
“I don’t know, I’ve never heard of it.”
Gu Guohua shook his head and said with a sober and solemn face, “But the gentry that are exposed to the public all over the world are like a carp in the river, and there are not a few gentry families that hide in the shadows to raise their strength and keep a low profile.”
After a pause, Gu Guowei’s gaze became steeply determined.
“Investigate! Use all your strength to thoroughly investigate this Gu family!”
“My Gu Guohua’s precious daughter, who I have never been able to spare a single blow to since she was a child, has now been harmed like this, I will make this Gu family pay the price even if I have to give up all my family fortune!”
Faced with Gu Guohua’s indignant momentum, Chen Dong only coldly responded with one word.
“Kill!”
Chapter 710
It was a moment of unprecedented understanding between two men.
A moment of determination.
Above the corridor, killing intent stirred.
As a father and a husband, what kind of man is he if he can still hold his tongue when his daughter and wife are suffering from such a calamity?
What kind of man is a man if he cowered to such a point?
At this moment.
Elder Long came out of the ward.
Sensing the killing intent on Chen Dong and Gu Guohua, Elder Long’s expression froze.
“A decision has been made?”
Chen Dong and Gu Guohua looked at Elder Long at the same time.
Gu Guohua said, “Does Elder Long think that there is still a need for a decision in this matter?”
“No need!” Chen Dong echoed, endlessly cold, causing his entire person to turn cold and fierce.
“I’m sorry.”
Elder Long smiled apologetically.
This matter, indeed, did not need to be decided.
It was a man who encountered such a thing and also had already made up his mind the moment it happened.
What’s more, neither Chen Dong nor Gu Guohua was a man who was afraid of his own life, or who looked ahead and back.
Gu Qingying is Chen Dong’s scales of rebellion, and Gu Guohua’s scales of rebellion.
A dragon’s scales will kill you if you touch them!
This is no longer about reason, reckless impulsiveness and other emotions.
Rather, it was …… instinct!
After a pause, Long Lao said, “But old slave does have a word for you, now that young madam has just pa*sed the danger, old slave thinks that young master and Gu Lao, should suspend the burning anger of the sky and take care of young madam best first.”
“Check first!”
Gu Guohua revealed a heartbroken look, gritting his teeth and throwing out two words, he went into the ward.
Chen Dong narrowed his eyes and looked at Elder Long: “These words of yours are very ill-timed.”
Although his heart had changed greatly, that creepy and gloomy coldness emanating from his body was indeed intimidating.
But to have a demon in one’s dao heart does not mean that one is in a state of madness at all times.
Reason and thought are all present.
After something like this had happened, when he and his father-in-law had made the driest decision together.
It was not unwise of Elder Long to come out and say such things, but it seemed superfluous.
Long Lao gave an odd smile, “Old slave just thinks that this matter has to be taken slowly, the Gu family is too mysterious, young master still please go in and take care of young lady, old slave report this matter to master, if we are to investigate the Gu family thoroughly, we have to rely on master’s wrist.”
“Good!”
Chen Dong did not say much and pushed his wheelchair into the ward.
A family so mysterious that even Elder Long and Gu Guohua had never heard of it, thus triggering an inexplicable a*sa*sination against him.
This matter had a tail and no head, and Elder Long was right, to be too hasty would only constrain him at every turn.
When Chen Dong entered the ward.
Elder Long frowned slightly, “Young master’s state of mind is uncertain.”
Sighing, he took out his mobile phone and flipped out an unfamiliar number.
It was left to him by the mysterious man.
It could only be contacted once.
One of the untimely words that Elder Long had just uttered was indeed because he was afraid that the Gu Family was too mysterious, and the other was also worried about Chen Dong.
If the Daoist heart planted a demon and was manipulated too quickly, it was possible that Chen Dong’s current state of mind would collapse.
Once mad, it would be harmful to anyone and no one would be the beneficiary!
Elder Long dialed the phone.
When it was answered, a hoarse voice rang out, “I’m nearby.”
“I know, but I need your solution for the young master to smooth out his mind.”
“Come downstairs in ten minutes.”
Snap!
The phone hung up.
Elder Long hesitated for a moment and pressed the dial button again.
Only this time, a blind tone rang out from the phone.
“Is it still true that you can only be contacted once?”
Elder Long laughed dumbly and stepped downstairs.
It didn’t take long to wait.
A little girl would walk up to Elder Long and handed him the parcel she was holding in her hand.
“Old grandpa, an old grandpa asked me to give it to you just now.”
Long Lao froze for a moment and raised his eyes to look around, so careful?
Just around the corner, preferring to fake it even so as not to expose it out?
Long Lao took the parcel and pulled out a hundred yuan and handed it to the little girl.
Only after the little girl left did he then unwrap the parcel.
Only once he saw the contents inside, Elder Long’s face sank.
It was a thick pile of parcels.
Inside it was actually …… Buddhist scriptures!
A book of Buddhist scriptures overlapped together.
Looking at it, Elder Long was dumbfounded, and the corners of his eyes were wildly bruised.
“This is the way to smooth out the young master’s mind?”
Elder Long suddenly felt the urge to curse as he busily rummaged through one Buddhist sutra after another.
When he found the last one, it was finally not a Buddhist scripture.
Instead, it was the …… Tao Te Ching.
“D*mn it!”
Rao Long couldn’t help but curse his mother at this moment.
But since the mysterious man had sent it, it was better than nothing, so perhaps the only way was to let the young master chant the sutra day after day and use it to calm his mind?
While comforting himself, Elder Long was also inwardly torn with melancholy.
The mysterious man had said that there was a way to help Chen Dong calm his mind, but now a few Buddhist sutras and a copy of the Tao Te Ching had become the solution, which was proof enough that even the mysterious man was helpless to help Chen Dong’s Daoist demon.
The few effective solutions were more like self-psychological comfort.
“If the young master has really gone mad, does the mystic really have a way to drag him back?”
For a moment, Elder Long was anxious and apprehensive.
Taking a deep breath, he raised his eyes to look at the sky.
Elder Long wrapped the Buddhist sutra and the Tao Te Ching back up, then he took out his mobile phone and dialled Chen Daoling.
This matter was about the Chen family bloodline!
Elder Long had already foreseen Chen Daoling’s burning anger!
……
Nightfall.
The autumn mood was dense.
Inside the study, the lights were bright.
Chen Daolin was concentrating on various matters.
The Chen family was in charge of the world’s wealth, and the entire world was under its control, so every day, affairs of all sizes were as numerous as a carp in a river.
The major rulers of the Chen family have already allocated as much as they can, but the matters that are brought to Chen Daolin’s desk are still overwhelming.
It was not much different from the Emperor’s day-to-day management.
After twenty years, Chen Daolin had become accustomed to this kind of day-to-day management.
While he was at the helm of the Chen family and enjoyed the glory of power and wealth, he also had to work hard behind the scenes and put in the effort.
Pay and reward have never been equal, but in the position of the Chen family head, they are.
As the mobile phone rang, Chen Dao Lin’s thoughts were taken away from his concentration.
Chen Daolin’s thoughts were pulled out of his concentration.
A glance was taken at the phone’s caller ID.
It was none other than Elder Long.
He rubbed the bridge of his sore nose and picked up the call.
“Elder Long, is there something wrong?”
“Master, something big has happened at home.”
Over the phone, Elder Long’s voice was incomparably low.
With a single word, it instantly made Chen Daolin freeze, the home that Elder Long spoke of was naturally Chen Dong’s home.
Without waiting to pursue the question, the voice of Elder Long in the phone suddenly took on a crying tone, his voice trembling as he wailed.
“Master, something has happened to the young lady, she was miscarried by a traitor, and her little grandson …… is gone!”
Boom!
At this moment, Chen Daolin was struck by lightning and froze on the spot.
There was no sound.
His body gradually trembled and his eyes crawled with blood.
Rage!
Infinite rage!
In this instant, it was as if anger swept through his entire body, wanting to completely incinerate Chen Daolin.
On the phone, the sound of Elder Long’s wailing sobs still echoed.
When it fell on Chen Daolin’s ears, it was no less than a sharp knife cutting his heart!
The Chen family bloodline, his Chen Daolin’s grandson, had just been lost?
“Ah!”
The next second.
A roar like a lion’s roar suddenly erupted in the study.
Bang!
Chen Daolin’s palm landed on the desk, and a hole was directly blown out of the solid wood desk with a “boom”.
The killing intent stirred and stirred.
Chen Daolin looked mad and said in a stern voice, “Who has harmed my Chen family line? I will destroy his entire clan!”
