"The Vow of Shattered Snow" Chapter 23
Gu Roujia’s eyes were red, sobbing with her hands clenched tight: "I don't want these."
The assistant smiled bitterly and persuaded: "Please sign it. Mr. Lin had me prepare this long ago. It is his wish." He added, "Mr. Lin said that you were always insecure because of your childhood experiences. He gave these to you so you could have some security."
Gu Roujia’s nose felt sore: "If he wants to give them to me, let him wake up and give them to me himself!"
Gu Roujia stood outside the operating room for over ten hours, waiting until the doctor came out. By then, her legs were weak, but she rushed over the moment the doctor appeared.
"Doctor... how is he?"
"The patient has been resuscitated, but his injuries are quite severe. Several ribs are broken, and his legs are fractured. He won't be able to recover for at least half a year or a year. Go in and see him, but don't stay too long; he needs quiet rest."
The doctor’s words caused Gu Roujia’s tense nerves to snap. She felt the world go black, and then she remembered nothing.
When she opened her eyes again, she faced the snow-white ceiling, and her memories slowly returned.
"Julian!" She sat up abruptly.
"Roujia, what's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"
"How are you here? Didn't you get into a car accident?" Gu Roujia’s memory was still frozen at the moment Julian was rushed to the hospital after the accident.
"You silly girl, you’ve been asleep for three days and three nights. My surgery was finished and I’ve been awake for a long time."
Gu Roujia looked at Julian’s hospital gown, then looked at herself, looking somewhat dazed.
Gu Roujia supported herself and stood up from the bed. Julian excitedly tried to stop her, but it pulled at his wounds, causing him to gasp in pain.
"Are you okay?"
"Don't leave..." Julian was afraid Gu Roujia would walk away again.
Gu Roujia was stunned, realizing Julian had misunderstood. "I'm not leaving. I’ll be with you for a lifetime, and with Baobao."
The assistant walked over at that moment, holding a checkup report, and said: "Madam, Mr. Lin, there is one more thing. When I went to handle Madam’s discharge procedures, the doctor gave me a report."
"What report?" Gu Roujia took it, looked at it, and suddenly started to laugh. Julian looked at the assistant in confusion. The assistant said: "Madam’s uterine cancer is in its early stages and can be cured."
Julian laughed happily, looking at Gu Roujia. Gu Roujia also looked at Julian, and both of them said at the same time: "It’s so good..."
Six months later, under Gu Roujia’s care, Julian recovered quickly. After being discharged, they immediately went through the marriage procedures. Having gone through so much, they were finally together.
Looking at the beautiful woman in front of him dressed in red, Julian kissed her red lips gently: "This time, we will never separate again."
"Don't let me get hurt again..." Gu Roujia held Julian and said softly.
"From this day forward, there will be no more separation for us while alive, only death will part us," Julian said affectionately.
Baobao watched Daddy and Mommy, laughing happily: "Hee hee, Happy Wedding, Daddy and Mommy..."
Gu Roujia and Julian felt filled with sweetness—they finally had a warm home.
