Chapter 315 Hold Tight and Never Let Go
The voice carried a raspiness, but Jiang Mengyu recognized it: It was Gu Dongxing’s voice!
A wave of emotion surged in Jiang Mengyu’s heart: Could it be that after being trapped in the valley for nearly a month, Gu Dongxing had been searching for her all along?
She had been worrying about how to get out—although she had gotten control of the Array in Medicine Valley, she had wandered so deep into the mountains that she couldn’t even distinguish north from south.
But now, with Gu Dongxing present, she could follow him out.
With a fiery passion in her heart, she ignored checking the space, and with a burst of energy, she called out towards Gu Dongxing’s direction with a long shout: "Brother Gu—, I’m here—in the valley—"
By now, Gu Dongxing had practically made it a daily routine to come to these mountains to search for Jiang Mengyu after having his factory staff help search for over half a month. Unable to continue allocating manpower to the search, he had no choice but to take turns with Cheng Jiuhe to look for her.
Today was just a routine search, but unexpectedly, after he called out, he actually heard Jiang Mengyu’s voice.
He was ecstatic: "It’s Jiang Mengyu, it’s Jiang Mengyu, she’s really still here!"
With that, he rushed towards the direction of Jiang Mengyu’s voice.
Gu Dongxing could hardly believe it: Did he really find his little wife today?
"Xiao Meng—"
"Brother Gu—I’m here—"
"Xiao Meng—"
"Brother Gu—I’m here—"
Gu Dongxing, swift as a leopard, closed the distance between himself and Jiang Mengyu, who also headed towards him. In short order, they saw each other.
Jiang Mengyu’s first impression: Gu Dongxing had grown thinner, darker, barely recognizable, his wan appearance painfully heart-wrenching. How had he coped during the month she was gone?
Gu Dongxing’s first impression: His little one was still alive, what a relief!
And, his little one seemed to have grown taller. Previously she was only 1.58 meters tall, now she had reached 1.65 meters.
Before, when Jiang Mengyu walked beside the 1.9-meter-tall Gu Dongxing, she looked like a child with an adult—now, at last, they seemed more matched.
The next moment, Gu Dongxing rushed up to her and held Jiang Mengyu tightly, as if clinging to a treasured possession regained.
He held her so tightly, Jiang Mengyu almost couldn’t breathe.
"I’m sorry, I’m sorry Xiao Meng, I was wrong, I should have told you first, I was wrong, I wanted to apologize to you, it was because I mistakenly accepted Ye Sheng’s request. Ye Qing isn’t my responsibility, I shouldn’t have brought her back.
Actually, it’s okay to bring her back for you to treat her, because I have to repay her grandfather’s kindness. But after that, I can no longer take care of her, she’s an adult, she doesn’t need my care, her health is restored now, even less so.
Xiao Meng, I’m sorry, this is the thing I wanted to apologize for.
I said I was helpless because my Mom accepted her as a goddaughter, and I couldn’t prevent it, I felt so helpless. I don’t want her as a sister, because she will make you uncomfortable, so I won’t deal with her anymore.
Jiang Mengyu, don’t avoid me, don’t ignore me, don’t leave me, I’ll go insane."
Jiang Mengyu hadn’t expected that Gu Dongxing would start explaining this matter as soon as they met.
After listening to his explanations, she realized she had misunderstood him. She thought his apology was because he was going to be with Ye Qing, his helplessness because it was against his will, but under Hai Xue’s pressure, he had no choice but to accept Ye Qing.
Her reason for fleeing from his side, not wanting to hear what she believed to be "the truth," resulted in her being trapped in this valley for nearly a month—wasn’t she too foolish?
Enduring the pain from being tightly embraced, she said: "Brother Gu, you need to relax a little."
At this moment, Gu Dongxing was like a child who couldn’t bear to let go of his beloved toy.
"No, I won’t let go, if I do, you’ll run away, and I’ll lose sight of you. You have no idea how miserable I’ve been for nearly a month, if I can’t find you, I—I—"
