Chapter 31 Mr. Rong Who Was Abused

Gu Baisheng quietly opened the door of the ward. She was afraid her noise would wake up Song Shuang.

But when she just carefully turned back and closed the door,

she heard Song Shuang's cold voice, "Did my mom talk to you?"

Gu Baisheng stopped and sighed.

She turned back and looked at him. She couldn't help but say, "Nothing escapes your eyes."

Song Shuang didn't respond. He just looked at her with his painting-like beautiful yet emotionless eyes, "What did she say?"

"Um..."

Gu Baisheng was wondering whether to tell him the truth.

As if having seen through her, Song Shuang added, "Tell me the truth."

Gu Baisheng had to tell him the truth this time.

"Your mother gave me a blank check and told me to fill in any number I want."

After she said that, a cold smile emerged on Song Shuang's ice-like face.

He was seemingly sarcastic to her.

"But I didn't take it."

Song Shuang was surprised.

Gu Baisheng closed the door and went towards his bed.

She poured a glass of water on the table. When she was confronting Lin Fengya, she was a bit nervous. But she didn't want to show it, so she didn't even drink her coffee.

She was all wind-up. Now that she felt more relaxed, she started feeling thirsty.

Seeing her pouring herself water, Song Shuang looked down and asked, while pretending he was not interested, "Why didn't you?"

“Because I don't really need money. And compared to money, you mean more to me."

Gu Baisheng was being honest.

Hearing her, Song Shuang thought she was going to take the chance to confess her love to him again.

Yet, after Gu Baisheng finished drinking, she put the glass down on the table and looked at him with a smile, "If you fall in love with me, I'd be the real Mrs. Song. Then when you inherit Song Family's business, I would be the wife of the richest man in Beicheng. That is worth way more than a blank check."

Song Shuang was speechless.

Gu Baisheng was quite happy.

Song Shuang's face went dark.

His head was just feeling better. Now it started to hurt again.

He supported his head with his hands.

There was a hint of pain on his face.

Seeing that, Gu Baisheng went over to comfort him, "Are you having a headache again? Don't touch the wound. It'll hurt more if you constantly touch it."

While speaking, Gu Baisheng pulled down his fingers that were going after the wounds.

Her tender and warm fingers touched his pale and cold fingers.

Yet that warmth was like stinging sparks. It made Song Shuang shake her hands often suddenly.

Gu Baisheng stumbled back because of his push.

She didn't anticipate him going mad so suddenly. She asked him helplessly, "What's wrong with you now?"

"Get out. I don't want to see you."

Song Shuang chased her out impatiently.

He didn't bother to look up at her.

Seeing his face, Gu Baisheng knew he really didn't want to see her.

She couldn't do anything but left, "Then I'll go outside for a while. Do you need me to call the doctor for you?"

"Get lost."

Song Shuang was mean.

He also really disliked her.

At first, when Gu Baisheng heard Song Shuang cursing her or telling her to get lost, she would be surprised and feel sad.

But now that she heard those words too many times, she could just ignore them. They no longer hurt her.

Besides, Song Shuang would only say these mean words when he was very irritated.

But she knew in his heart that he didn't mean as awful as he said.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be hurt like this for protecting her.

Gu Baisheng walked to the door, and she suddenly had an epiphany. She turned back and asked Song Shuang as if absorbed in thought, "Did you ask me what your mother said because you're worried that she might bully me?"

Song Shuang was calming himself down.

Hearing that, he frowned his eyebrows and suddenly got angry again, "Get out!"

He said that fiercely and coldly.

Yet Gu Baisheng couldn't help but chuckle.

She thought he was embarrassed.

After leaving the room, Gu Baisheng thoughtfully closed the door for Song Shuang.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Song Shuang closed his eyes.

He didn't know why the feelings he got when she touched his fingers were still lingering like tiny sparks.

It was warm and touching, yet unfamiliar and vague, like a dream that couldn't be caught.

Song Shuang raised his hand up and looked at his fingertips.

His eyes were deep and dark like the obsidian.

No one could see through him.

...

Gu Baisheng was a bit hungry. Seeing the night getting darker,

she went to the fast-food restaurant and had dinner. Then she packed something for Song Shuang and was going to take it back.

But when she walked to the gate of the hospital, she saw a lot of people surrounding there.

She followed her instinct and walked away.

But after some steps, she looked back hesitantly.

She was a bit curious.

When she was wondering whether she should go over to see it, she saw a skinny young boy rushing out of the crowd.

That boy was wearing an oversize hospital gown. Even though he walked at a fast pace, it wasn't hard to notice he was limp.

He also ran very slowly, which attracted attention.

But people were surrounding the gate as if something major had happened. No one noticed this boy in a hospital gown dashing out.

Only Gu Baisheng thought he looked familiar.

The boy staggered along the green belts by the road and went towards the back door of the hospital.

When he got near Gu Baisheng, he suddenly slipped and fell to the ground.

He was in so much pain that he couldn't get up.

Gu Baisheng frowned and walked towards him.

She then saw blood leaking from his gown on his legs and arms.

It looked like the wounds were raptured.

Seeing that, she couldn't stay a bystander anymore. She went over and squatted in front of him, "Are you ok?"

When the boy heard someone talking to him, he was startled and looked up. His eyes were as helpless as a wounded dear, staring at her.

Gu Baisheng looked at him and inhaled a long breath.

What a gorgeous boy!

Even though he was a young boy, his look was extremely beautiful.

Beautiful sounded like describing a girl.

But he was really beautiful.

He was so beautiful that he blurred the boundary between man and woman. The most beautiful girl and the most handsome man would look like nothing in front of him.

His look could even compete with Song Shuang who was mature and indifferent.

No, maybe Song Shuang was no match to this boy's beauty.

Gu Baisheng was shocked.

She was so shocked that she almost couldn't compose herself.

Seeing her dazed look, the boy opened his mouth and tried to say something anxiously, but he could only make some simple monotones.

He made some hoarse and weird sounds like "Ahhhh".

Such cacophony was with such a beautiful face.

It made people really pity him.

Gu Baisheng looked at him gesturing and realized he was a mute.

Gu Baisheng's feeling was complicated.

The boy grabbed Gu Baisheng's hand like a drowning man grabbing the last saving draw with hope.

Gu Baisheng was startled by him grabbing her hand.

"You..."

Gu Baisheng didn't finish her sentence. She heard a middle-aged woman's voice coming from afar, "Mr. Rong? Mr. Rong, where are you? Mr. Rong?"

Mr. Rong?

Gu Baisheng suddenly remembered at this moment.

This was the boy she met a couple of days ago in front of Jinshayuan supermarket who was bitten by the pit bull.

She thought he had some sort of mental problem at then.

But then, his face was covered by blood. It was at night, so she didn't see his look clearly.

Now that she could see him, he didn't look deranged.

His eyes were so bright with a strong desire for survival, asking her to help him.

She read them clearly, and she never thought of rejecting him.

She supported him up and walked towards a chain hotel nearby.

There were people behind them searching for him.

They were calling "Mr. Rong" non-stop.

Gu Baisheng supported him to the front desk of the hotel and got a room with her ID.

She also covered his head with her jacket.

The boy put his head on her shoulder. The staff at the front desk couldn't see him clearly, but they gave her the room key with a strange look.

Gu Baisheng supported the boy to the elevator.

She heard the two staff members at the desk discussing them.

"That man's injury is not even healed, and he got a room with a woman. Does he have the strength?"

"What won't men do when they are in the mood? Let alone wounds, they may do it even if they're half-dead!"

When Gu Baisheng was listening to them, her mouth twitched.

She supported the boy to the elevator and then took him to the room.

He seemed to be heavily wounded. He kept panting in pain when he was walking towards the room.

When he got in the room, Gu Baisheng put him on the bed. The boy immediately hugged his leg.

Seeing that, Gu Baisheng rolled up his pants to check.

She was almost scared to death when she saw it.

It wasn't because the wound was scary.

She had been a surgeon for ten years. She saw all kinds of bloody wounds. It wouldn't terrify her.

But the wound on his leg was not natural.

The original wound was scabbed over. Then the scab was torn off.

It would be like pealing someone's skin off. It was purely a way to torture.

Gu Baisheng couldn't imagine what kind of hatred would let a person do such an insane thing to this boy.

The boy watched Gu Baisheng looking at his wound. He was panting in pain and covered in cold sweats.

"It's ok. I'll buy some medicine from the store right now. I'll clean your wounds and bind up." She patted on his arm.

The boy's arm jerked as if she hurt him again.

Gu Baisheng gritted her teeth and unbuttoned his gown, trying to take his top off.

The boy's eyes were full of tears and terror. He looked at her surprisingly and in fear.

Gu Baisheng felt like she was a bad woman who was going to ravage a boy. For a second, she hesitated and couldn't bring herself to do it.

But it was for a second.

Then she said to him seriously, "Trust me. I'm a doctor."

The boy then slowly and hesitantly let go.

Gu Baisheng took his top off and saw this kind of torture-induced wounds all over his chest, back, waist, abdomen, and arms.

There were a dozen of these wounds. Only the ones on his back were not as bad.

"This is outrageous. Who is this pervert who did this to you? I'll call the police for you!"

Hearing the police, the boy was so scared that he grabbed her immediately and shook his head in fear.

He suggested that she mustn't call the police.

Seeing him, Gu Baisheng was angry and pitiful. Her hands were also shaking.

She didn't know how to help him at this moment.
