“Take her back to her room.” Beiming Han had already stood up and started walking out as he spoke.
Gu Qingxin was a little surprised, was he about to leave?
She immediately stood up. In the moment she did, she nearly lost her balance, drastically underestimating the impact Beiming Han had on her. Her legs felt weak…
She ignored the state of her body. Noticing that he had walked a considerable distance away, she rushed after him…
“Wait! Can I go to the hospital to see my mom today?” she asked anxiously.
“No?” Beiming Han refused bluntly without stopping.
“My mom is going to have surgery tomorrow, 1 just want to go see her.”
Being rejected, Gu Qingxin, vexed, ran in front of him, stretched out her arms, and blocked his way.
Seeing the audacious young girl in front of him, Beiming Han spoke coldly, “Take her back to her room. Under no circumstances is anyone to let her out without my permission!”
“You are being unreasonable! The person lying in the hospital is my mom, yet I, as a child, can’t be by her side to care for her. Have you ever considered how heartbroken 1 must be!” Gu Qingxin stared at him angrily.
“Take her away!” Beiming Han remained unmoved, continuing to be cold and heartless.
Immediately, the servants grabbed her. Angry, Gu asked, “Do you not have a mother? If your mother were lying in the hospital…”
As soon as Gu Qingxin said this, everyone gasped in shock. Feeling the sudden shift in the atmosphere and the drastic drop in temperature around her, she mumbled and silenced…
“I do not have a mother! So stop wasting your breath in front of me.”
Beiming Han’s tone was chillingly cold. He darkened his face, bypassed her, and walked away…
Gu Qingxin quickly turned her head, looking at his retreating back, corners of her eyes turning red…
Upon returning to her room, Gu Qingxin rushed to the window to look outside. She saw Beiming Han’s car driving away.
This was the first time Gu Qingxin had seen North Garden. In front of the mansion’s plaza, there was a massive fountain with a statue of a woman standing upright in the center. She was holding a small jug, gently pouring water, surrounded by greenery and woods.
She was placed on the third floor. Gu Qingxin resolved if Beiming Han did not grant her permission to accompany her mother in the hospital for her surgery the next day, she would jump out of the window and escape.
As she heard knocking at the door, Gu Qingxin quickly went back to the bed. Aunt Zhou entered, “Miss, the things the young master ordered for you have arrived by air today.”
Several maids accompanied Aunt Zhou, each holding a small box. After entering the room, they placed the objects on the coffee table in front of the sofa and left.
“Check it out, see if you like it.” Aunt Zhou took her to the sofa and sat down.
A few boxes were neatly arranged on the coffee table. The first small box contained a watch. The entirety of the watch was pink, with a beautiful rose pattern on the face, stenciled with pink diamonds.
The watch had been custom made for her from Patek Philippe by Beiming Han. It was stunningly fantastic, with a cost of no less than eight figures.
A pink diamond bracelet, also a custom-made piece from a top international jewelry brand, lay within the second box. It was incredibly cute and pink.
The third box held a pink necklace, a fine chain with a thumb-sized diamond pendant at the center, elegantly framed by several smaller diamonds, like stars surrounding the moon…
Precise, luxurious; these three items could absolutely capture any young girl’s heart…
“These are all custom made, and there’s only one in the world. The young master even had your name engraved on them. Try them on and see if you like them.”
Aunt Zhou picked up the watch that looked as beautiful as a rose and intended to put it on for Gu Qingxin.
“No need to try it now, put it away.” Gu Qingxin didn’t feel like trying on the jewelry; her thoughts were entirely dedicated to her hospitalized mom.
“Miss, this is a token of the young master’s affection.”
Aunt Zhou looked at the girl in incomprehension. Any girl would presumably swoon over such items, even the wealthy young ladies of the Beiming family would lose their composure over such custom-made pink colored jewelry.
Gu Qingxin really wanted to say that his kindness was more than she could bear. However, realizing she was in Beiming Han’s home, she could only say, “At present, I’m only concerned about my mom’s surgery tomorrow. 1 hope Aunt Zhou can understand.”
“Well, I’ll put these away for now. You need to show these to the young master when he comes back.”
Aunt Zhou realized, Gu Qingxin was not opposed to these items; she was just worried about her ill mother. Such a filial child.
Aunt Zhou stored the items away in the cloakroom. When she came out, Gu Qingxin walked up to her, a little shyly, and asked, “Aunt Zhou, could you cook me that contraceptive soup you made for me last time?”
For a nineteen-year-old girl, such a matter was embarrassing to discuss.
“…Alright.”
Aunt Zhou really could not understand the girl. Given the Beiming family’s background, any girl favored by the young Beiming masters would typically want to keep the baby and rise to prominence overnight.
But here she was trying to prevent a pregnancy.
Given it concerned Gu Qingxin, Aunt Zhou dare not make any decision independently. The first thing she did was call Beiming Han. After listening to Aunt Zhou, Beiming Han remained silent for a few seconds before he replied, “If she wants to drink it, let her drink.”
Listening to the busy tone from the phone, even though the young master’s tone was as usual- very cold, and devoid of any emotion, Aunt Zhou still sensed a hint of anger…
Night fell.
Gu Qingxin saw Beiming Han hadn’t returned, so she prepared to go to bed after taking a bath. However, as much as she tried, she couldn’t get to sleep; thoughts of her mother’s surgery the next day and whether Beiming Han would return tonight consumed her.
After much tossing and turning, she finally fell asleep.
By the time Beiming Han returned, it was the middle of the night.
He looked remarkably upset…
Slowly she began to lose her consciousness….
