4509 The Other Side 478

It was as though the dead could be experienced through the one alive.

Jing Qi lowered her head, feeling a little sad. She suddenly said, "Actually, I didn't know Gu Xingze before that, but I've watched many of his movies since then, including 'Innocence' that the two of you starred in together."

She pause, not knowing if she should bring this up. "I think Mr. Gu Xingzhe likes you a lot, right?"

"You…" Yun Shishi looked at her in surprise.

"Sorry…" Jing Qi lowered her head guiltily. "Actually, I know that I'm not in a position to mention these things. However, because 'Innocence' was a particularly moving film, it made me cry. It's too touching. You clearly love each other, but you have to suffer so much. I've watched this movie several times. Moreover, from this movie, I could tell that from the way Mr. Gu Xingzhe looked at you, that he was expressing his real feelings and not acting."

Yun Shishi fell silent.

Jing Qi continued, "I'm very sad about Mr. Gu Xingzhe's accident, but I also hope that you can let him go. I think that if there's a next life, perhaps you two will meet again at a street corner. Look, fate is really a magical thing. We've actually run into each other here again and are even assigned the same ward. Don't you think this is amazing?"

Yun Shishi agreed with her. She was suddenly curious and asked, "I've never seen your husband. Where's Yangyang's father?"

When Jing Qi heard this, she lowered her gaze sadly, her eyes filled with disappointment.

"His father…"

"What's the matter?" Noting her melancholic expression, Yun Shishi became uneasy. "Did something happen? Just tell me. I'll do everything I can to help you."

"Thank you, Shishi! But… actually, I didn't mention his father because… I'm actually not married."

"Not married?" Yun Shishi's heart skipped a beat at the sight of this lonely yet stubborn woman, as though she reminded her of herself.

"Five years ago, I fell in love with a man and wanted to be with him no matter what. However, from the looks of it now, I was like a moth flying right into a flame! Even after the child was born, he had no intention of marrying me. Only then did I realize that the man I foolishly loved did not really love me. When my father and mother found out that I was unmarried and had a child, they were furious and asked me to sell the child."

As Jing Qi spoke, her eyes turned damp.

"I'm ashamed to say this. Back then, I did have this thought. Originally, when the child was born, I had the thought of marrying that man. However, I realized that the man would not marry me. At the same time, the child was also found to lack cornea. Mother convinced me that since the man did not want me, it would be very difficult for me to remarry with a child. You know, most men care a lot about a woman's past. I thought that even if the child had the chance to undergo surgery, I could not afford the medical fees. I thought that I might as well entrust the child to a good family. Perhaps he could live a happier life."

After a pause, Jing Qi's eyes turned bloodshot and she choked up. "But I don't know what happened. That very day, I carried the child and walked out of the hospital with my mother. As we did so, even though the little guy couldn't see, he seemed to have sensed something. His little hands grabbed me and he clung on to me, crying very hard."
