Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Being a Couple for a Lifetime
Su Meixi was in total panic.
She had watched Gu Wei get shot with her own eyes.
“Gu Wei, Gu Wei, wake up!” she shook him.
Gu Wei’s eyes were tightly closed, not moving at all.
“Gu Wei, wake up quickly.”
She couldn’t help crying, her body trembling from the sobs.
At that time, Xiao Ding and the others arrived.
Xiao Ding rushed over, looked at Gu Wei, then asked Su Meixi, “What happened to the boss?”
“He’s been, been shot,” Su Meixi sobbed uncontrollably.
She didn’t want him to die.
She realized she couldn’t lose him; he was the only person in this world who cared about her feelings, who knew how to love her.
Xiao Ding checked Gu Wei’s body, then also started crying, “Boss, don’t die, it would be such a pity. Dr. Xiao Su hasn’t officially agreed to get back together with you, you don’t even have kids, and it’s even possible that you’re still a virgin.”
As she cried, Su Meixi glanced at Xiao Ding. Could there be such a miserable way to cry?
While crying, Xiao Ding asked, “Dr. Xiao Su, the boss is about to die. The only reason he’s still hanging on might be to get an answer from you… tell him whether you love him or not, let him go in peace.”
At that moment, Gu Wei’s finger moved.
In tears, Su Meixi said, “I…”
“Dr. Xiao Su, say it quickly,” cried Xiao Ding.
“I…” She looked at Gu Wei.
She had been too anxious and had forgotten to give him first aid.
Nor had she examined his wound.
But now, looking at his wound, she realized there was no blood.
If he had really been shot, his body would certainly be penetrated.
“Xiao Ding, he doesn’t seem to be bleeding,” Su Meixi realized belatedly.
Xiao Ding’s wailing stopped as well, and he looked guiltily at Su Meixi, saying, “Could it be the blood has run out?”
“How could that be?”
She flipped his clothes and found a bulletproof vest!
So, Gu Wei had been knocked out by the impact of the bullet!
“He’s fine.” Su Meixi checked his pulse and heartbeat, then cried with joy, “He’s fine!”
“Oh, that’s good he’s fine,” Xiao Ding glanced at Gu Wei, thinking to himself: Boss, I can’t pretend anymore, it’s all on you now.
Su Meixi patted Gu Wei’s face again, “Gu Wei, wake up!”
She slapped his face with a smack.
Finally, Gu Wei opened his eyes, then looked at Su Meixi.
Seeing he was awake, Su Meixi immediately threw herself into his arms, crying, “Thank goodness, you’ve finally woken up!”
Gu Wei sat up and also wrapped his arms around her.
This scene made Xiao Ding’s eyes redden.
Wiping his tears, Xiao Ding said, “Dr. Xiao Su, you see, you can’t bear to lose the boss; you really do love him, don’t you?”
Su Meixi: “…”
She slowly released Gu Wei.
Gu Wei looked at her, a trace of loss in his eyes.
It seems no matter what, she refused to be with him.
Even though he took a bullet for her.
Although he had a bulletproof vest, the instinct to survive kicks in during a moment of crisis, and without preparation, a person wouldn’t realize they aren’t going to die; they would instinctively dodge.
But at the moment the criminal fired the gun, he didn’t dodge; he took the bullet for her.
“If he hadn’t been wearing a bulletproof vest, he would have done the same thing.”
Yet, her heart was too hard to warm.
He laughed at himself, about to watch her leave, but in the next moment, he just felt warmth in his chest.
She pressed up against him again and hugged him tightly.
He was taken aback.
Su Meixi embraced him so fiercely.
He couldn’t help but hug her back.
“Gu Wei, I want to be with you, as long as you don’t mind, let’s be husband and wife for life!” Her words tumbled out excitedly, tearfully spoken.
Just a second before, she had made her decision.
If this man could take a bullet for her, what reason did she have to not be courageous?
What was losing a little dignity compared to her life being saved by him multiple times?
Gu Wei hugged her tightly, then whispered in her ear, “Are you really sure about this?”
“I’m sure, this time I’m not lying to you, Gu Wei, let’s start over, let me be your wife, no matter the difficulties, I won’t bring up divorce again!”
Gu Wei was as thrilled as a child.
Xiao Ding also silently shed tears.
It had not been easy for their boss.
…
That very afternoon, the identities of the criminals were uncovered.
They belonged to a cross-border crime syndicate that had clashed with another group the day before, then fled to the shepherd’s house, planning to kill the shepherd after treating their severely injured comrade, but they ran into Gu Wei.
Su Meixi also received commendation; Gu Wei praised her for staying calm in the face of danger, buying valuable time for the rescue, and awarded her with a silk banner.
However, her movements were now more restricted; she could not go out on medical visits until their people were available to accompany her.
Su Meixi and Gu Wei had reconciled, but their opportunities to meet were still scarce.
First of all, no one could replace her at work, and no one would switch shifts with her on weekends; a health clinic with only two doctors and one nurse was, needless to say, very busy.
Moreover, Gu Wei’s work was shift-based, often requiring border patrols or guard duty, clashing with Su Meixi’s time off.
However, Gu Wei frequented the small restaurant more often for meals, and Su Meixi also had to eat, so they would arrange to meet before dining.
The restaurant owner was relieved to see them finally together; she was delighted whenever they visited, and the portions she cooked for them were generously increased.
“You two should have made up sooner. You had to go through such a dangerous situation to reconcile. Haven’t you considered, if luck hadn’t been on your side, both of you could have been gone, leaving a lifetime of regret?”
Su Meixi thought about it and felt there was truth in that.
Gu Wei then reached under the table to hold her hand.
She let go, and he caught it again; she released it, but he took hold again and didn’t let go.
Su Meixi couldn’t help but ask, “Do you eat with your left hand?”
Gu Wei raised an eyebrow, “What’s so difficult about that?”
He was ambidextrous, adept at using both hands not only for eating but also for shooting.
And when it came to fighting hand-to-hand, he was equally skilled.
…
“Dr. Xiao Su, is that Major with the surname Gu really your husband?” Dr. Ma just couldn’t hold back his curiosity.
He noticed that Su Meixi was working especially hard today, very patient, and often smiling.
Su Meixi nodded.
Dr. Ma then smiled, “They told me before, and I didn’t believe it, but it turns out to be true.”
Su Meixi said, “Before coming here, we had a little quarrel, but now it’s all right, we’ve made up.”
Dr. Ma couldn’t help but say, “From now on, you must cherish it, he has saved you time and time again, and it’s clear he cherishes you, willing to protect you with his life.”
Embarrassed, Su Meixi nodded, and then asked, “Dr. Ma, I want to learn how to make your local milk tea, can Sister-in-law teach me?”
What do you think?
