Chapter 21 Self-righteous Men
Chris was lying on the ground, his head was broken and he was bleeding out.
I crouched beside him and kept shouting his name.
God bless, he finally moved.
I was about to run into the house to make an emergency call, but someone caught my leg.
"Chris, help me up, I'm fine." Chris's weak voice came.
With so much blood, since he still said nothing! I really can't understand him.
With great effort, I finally dragged him through the door.
Chris lay on the sofa, his face bleeding and looking very weak. What worries me even more is that the wound on his body seems to have cracked, and blood seeped out of his shirt.
"Why did you stop me from calling the police and not let me make emergency calls?" I complained while trying to stop the bleeding.
Chris glanced at me and whispered, "It's not more harmful to recruit the police."
It turned out to be to protect those people.
"They did this to you." I was a little indignant: "When did you become a Bodhisattva to save the suffering?"
Chris ended up covering my head with a towel in my hand and giving a wry smile: "I was cornered. What do you expect them to do?" He went on to say: "These people are all old elders of Gu's family. They have followed my father step by step to expand the enterprise. Now they are old, but they have been driven out."
I'm not talking.
"Are you and Little John all right?" Chris looked at me anxiously.
When he asked, I felt a dull pain in my back.
Chris saw it right away.
"Chris, what's the matter with you?" He sat up, grabbed my hand and looked me up and down anxiously: "Where is it uncomfortable?"
His head is still bleeding, his face is extremely pale, but he is preoccupied with worrying about me.
It is impossible to say that you are not touched at all. After all, people's hearts are full of meat.
I don't want him to worry, I want to cover up the past: "I'm fine, you'd better worry about yourself first."
He took it seriously: "No, what happened?"
Looking at Chris's stubborn strength coming up again, I had to give in: "It was a stone on the back......"
Before I finished speaking, Chris picked me up and began to lift my clothes.
"What are you doing?" I was ashamed and anxious: "Little John came out and saw it."
Chris frowned. "Let me look at your injury. What if the child sees it?"
I was stunned by his roar and did not continue to refuse.
My back looks badly hurt. I heard Chris gasp. Then he said, "Go to the hospital, it looks purple."
"Are you not afraid of bringing trouble to those old employees?" I Liao Kan him: "They smashed this."
Chris didn't speak for a long time. After a long time, I heard him whisper, "You are the most important thing."
I pulled down my clothes and sat up: "I really don't need it. I didn't hurt any bones."
His eyes showed sorry eyes: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
I didn't say anything.
Chris took my hand, and I tried to pull it back, but he pulled it tighter.
"Gu Wenhao has opened so many people at once. Aren't you afraid of problems in the operation of the company?" I changed the subject: "Even if we sweep away dissidents, there is no need to rush."
"Oh." Chris sneered: "Of course he is worried. How can Gu Wenhao rest assured if he doesn't get rid of all the old Gu employees?"
I looked at him strangely.
"A few years ago, Gu Wenhao's investment in real estate business encountered a global financial turmoil and lost all his money. Therefore, he began to go astray." Chris said: "My father flew into a rage when he found out. He was not allowed to interfere in Gu's business."
"Do you mean that he robbed Gu's family just to find a regular company as a facade for his partial business?" I looked at Chris. "You can sue him! It's illegal."
Chris sighed: "There is no evidence, although I have been collecting it."
I kind of understand Chris's decision at the beginning.
If he gives up the company, too many people will lose their jobs, including so many old employees who are loyal to Gu.
Chris bears too many responsibilities and obligations.
"What should I do now?" I asked Chris.
He put my hand to his lips, kissed it gently, and said in a comforting tone, "Chris, don't worry about this, just live happily with Little John."
I was a little embarrassed and began to try hard to pull my hand back.
Chris had a lost look on his face.
"How can I be forgiven?" His tone was low: "As long as you say it, I will do it!"
"Will you stop forcing me?" After much deliberation, I finally decided to make it clear to him.
"Chris, I almost died!" I stared into his eyes: "It's all because of your distrust."
He was so anxious that I raised my hand to stop him.
"Even if I don't care about everything before, why didn't you make it clear to me after Little John was born? At that time......" I closed my eyes painfully: "Didn't you also know that I was seriously ill at that time?"
Chris pulled me into his arms, and his voice choked: "I am such an asshole that you have suffered so much injustice! Do you know that when you fell upstairs, I rushed over and almost went with you!"
His eyes were red, and the memory of that time obviously plunged him into extreme pain.
"Later Little John was born, and I guarded you in the hospital. At that time, I secretly swore that I would never let you fall into danger again because of me! I want you to live carefree!" Chris said: "When you went to the United States for treatment, I suffered from anxiety every day and kept calling the doctor to ask about your situation!"
Self-righteous man!
He thought he was protecting me by not telling me and keeping me away. But did he know that I almost collapsed when I learned that he married the woman who killed me?
Chris looked at my expression and he began to panic: "Chris, it's all my fault. I made up my mind to hide you to the end only after the doctor repeatedly confirmed that you were fine! Gu Wenhao is ruthless. I am protecting you. Please give me a chance, will you?"
I turned away and my voice was tired: "I am tired."
"Then I won't talk about it first, waiting for you to have a good rest......" Chris gave me a careful look for fear of being rejected.
