When You’re Gone

In the evening of January 15th.

It was a snowy evening, the sky outside the window was gray, the street lamp showed a dim yellow light, and the snow fell from the branches and hit the ground.

Gu Hansheng opened the door and entered, as usual, he was going to read Su Yan's diary again.

When he was just about to sit down, he saw Su Yan's fingers move on the hospital bed.

It's not the same as usual.

His heartbeat has a tendency to speed up, and he even relaxes his breathing.

The light is dim, like a soft focus lens in a movie.

Gu Hansheng saw Su Yan who had been asleep for a few years and slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes were black and white, and her pupils were clear, which looked very similar to what they were a few years ago.

Rao was Gu Hansheng, but he was still surprised by the situation in front of him.

He was shocked by the sudden surprise that his entire chest trembled.

But soon...

There was a sharp thorn in the electrocardiograph, and Su Yan's electrocardiogram suddenly became very messy.

When there was an abnormal movement in the ward, the alarm went off by itself.

The most authoritative doctors in the hospital for Su Yan came, and Gu Hansheng was squeezed out of the crowd.

Yu Shenzhi stood not too close to him and watched. Gu Hansheng still couldn't wake up from the shock just now, he suddenly didn't know what to do.

When Yu Shenzhi saw Su Yan's eyes half-opened, he also felt that it was almost a miracle.

He said, "Does it mean that she is awake?" Yu Shenzhi raised his hand and rubbed his face, his face was filled with excitement that could not be concealed, "Old Gu, our efforts have finally been wasted."

But he found that Gu Hansheng's face was very wrong.

There was no joy on his face.

Yu Shenzhi followed Gu Hansheng's gaze, and he found that all the doctors had serious faces, and they were nervously doing various examinations for Su Yan.

Almost in this short instant, the curves representing the signs of human life on the electrocardiograph slowly stabilized——

Yu Shenzhi, even a layman, knew what this meant.

He was more irritable than Gu Han, and then he pulled a female doctor and pointed at the thread and asked: "What the **** does this mean? Isn't she awake? Why are you so..."

"A vegetative that has been asleep for a long time can easily die suddenly in a short time when it wakes up suddenly, don't you know this?"

I don’t know who among the rescued doctors is yelling: "The blood bank in the hospital is almost empty. The person in charge of the spare blood transfusion is called by Ma to prepare for the operating room!"

...

Gu Hansheng called Liang Shu, but she didn't answer it.

He made countless calls, and only a cold female voice came in the voice to remind the other party to shut down.

He listened to this reminder several times as many as he had allocated to Liang Shu.

At this time, Gu Han was too late to think about other things.

He asked Ji Shen to go back to Mansion Zero immediately and be sure to bring Liang Shu over.

Ji Shen hesitated for a moment, then turned and left.

Soon, Gu Hansheng stopped him again. He closed his eyes and opened again to look at Ji Shen: "If she doesn't want to come over, she must be tied up."

Ji Shen nodded.

...

At eight thirty in the evening of January 15th.

Su Yan's heartbeat stopped at this moment.

Gu Hansheng stood on the observation chair outside the operating room and watched through the transparent glass at the machine where the lifeline returned to a straight line.

The heart was shaking, and there was an unspeakable but painful feeling spreading in the heart.

Yu Shenzhi kicked the plastic chair fiercely from the side.

He looked at Gu Hansheng, gritted his teeth, "How can that woman be so cruel? Even if you keep it from her, Su Yan is a life at all, isn't it? Saving a life is better than building a seventh-level Buddha, right? Does she have any heart? How can she turn off her phone at this time and run outside to hide?"

Su Yan eventually died of insufficient blood supply.

Almost everyone is working hard. They believe too much in Liang Shu, the mobile blood source, so the rescue process took one hundred and two percent of the effort.

But in the end--

These few short hours were also uncomfortable for Yu Shenzhi.

He's just an outsider in a bad mood, and it's even harder to say that Gu Hansheng is anymore.

Gu Hansheng sat in a chair with his head hanging down, his hands folded on his forehead, not knowing what he was thinking.

Yu Shenzhi walked over, stood still in front of him, looked down at him, "Next I think no matter what decision you make, I understand you."

Gu Hansheng felt that a part of his life collapsed following Su Yan's death.

Is it because of Su Yan?

It's not just.

It is because of his hard work over the years.

Following Su Yan's disappearance, there is also a result he has strived for for so many years.

Gu Hansheng sat in the chair without moving for a long time, until the phone in his pocket vibrated.

For the first time, he didn't answer it because he didn't want to care.

Now he doesn't want to answer the phone no matter who it is.

Later, Yu Shenzhi couldn't stand it anymore. He said, "Let's take it, what if it is the murderer who called? I see what she has to say!"

Gu Hansheng twisted his brows slightly, he just felt that the words murderer were harsh.

But, she is not a murderer, so who is it?

Is it the doctor in this hospital? Are they people who are waiting hard? It doesn't seem to be either.

Gu Hansheng took out his mobile phone and picked it up. It was assistant Ji Shen.

As early as the moment Su Yan left, someone brought the news to Ji Shen, including the cause of Su Yan's death.

Now Ji Shen called again, Gu Hansheng hesitated for a second before answering.

Ji Shen said at that end: "Sir, I found the wife."

"She..." Gu Hansheng hadn't spoken for a long time, and the moment he spoke, his voice was extremely hoarse, like a late old man abandoned by the whole world, "...Where is it?"

There was silence for a few seconds on the other side, and then answered him: "Just came back from outside."

The man squeezed his frowning eyebrows with his fingers, his eyes were so calm that there was no emotion, he said, "Take her to the Civil Affairs Bureau."

Soon, he added, "Drive slowly on the road."

...

Yu Shenzhi heard some meanings from these words.

He stared sideways at the night outside. It was snowing and the whole world was white. He said, "The Civil Affairs Bureau has already left work by this time—"

Gu Hansheng looked at him with a very faint look, and then Yu Shen closed his mouth with afterthought.

Yes, is it difficult for the Civil Affairs Bureau to work overtime with his Gu Hansheng's ability?

Gu Hansheng got up and looked at Yu Shenzhi. The pain in his body was still tearing his body. His voice was still hoarse, "Help me bring her body back to Yushan Villa, thank you."

Yu Shenzhi looked at his back and sighed suddenly, "Because she died, are you only going to divorce her?"

In fact, Yu Shenzhi's words are too emotional.

From a legal point of view, Liang Shu did not have any sins.

From their point of view, she is at best morally struggling.

Yu Shenzhi, he just feels so distressed that he and Gu Hansheng have been working hard over the past few months. Everything returned to the original point in an instant and turned into a bubble, and may even be nowhere to be found in the future.

...

Mansion Zero.

In the living room, Liang Shu looked at Ji Shen after the phone call.

She vaguely felt as if something had changed in the dark.

But she couldn't tell.

Thinking of Aunt Mei, Liang Shu spoke first, "Where is he?"

Ji Shen put away his phone and looked at Liang Shu very mockingly. His tone suddenly became acrimonious, "Anyone can ask this, but Ms. Liang, you are not suitable and you are not qualified."

Miss Liang...

Liang Shu pinched the palms of her hands, ignoring the emotions in Ji Shen's tone. She said, "I have something to look for, is he in the hospital?"

"Where were you when the husband asked you for something?" Ji Shen asked her in turn.

She was startled, and then said, "Did he find me?"

Soon, Liang Shu remembered that her mobile phone had fallen into the water, and she explained: "My hand..."

"Su Yan is dead!" Ji Shen almost didn't give her a chance to excuse, so he interrupted Liang Shu indifferently, "It's because of you! Miss Liang, you successfully killed someone because you Su Yan died. Said, my husband's many years of hard work have been wasted!"

At first, Ji Shen's mood was not so strong.

Perhaps it was the matter that was said, so the things buried deep in my heart ran out one after another. The faith that had been accumulated over the years suddenly fell apart, and this kind of blow was enough to destroy a person.

Finally, Ji Shen added indifferently and resolutely, "Liang Shu, you are an out-and-out murderer!"

These words made Liang Shu's brain throb.

Before she could react from this incident, she was directly labeled as a murderer.

Liang Shu could vaguely remember the scene of her and Gu Hansheng who were here last night.

At that time, he thought that Su Yan could survive, and even said the sentence: It is better to threaten than to save her.

He would rather she threaten him not to divorce, but also save Su Yan.

But now Su Yan is dead.

Is it really dead?

She just went out, and in just a long time, her eldest brother and sister-in-law died, and she became a "murderer".

Ji Shen said that she made Gu Han's years of hard work in vain.

Years of hard work... Liang Shu lowered her eyes, and some wanted to cry, but she had cried too many times today and there were no tears to secrete.

It is because Gu Hansheng has made a lot of efforts to make Su Yan live and wake up for so many years. His goal from beginning to end is only this, but Su Yan is dead, so he...

In a short period of time, three lives.

Liang Shu twitched the corners of her lips mockingly. She closed her eyes, her nails sinking deeply into the palms of her hands, and there was a sharp pain.

Forget it.

That's it.

...

On the way to the Civil Affairs Bureau, Liang Shu was extremely silent.

She seemed to be taken aback, more like a corpse without a soul.

In just one day, from day to night, she felt as if a century had passed.

The snow was heavy at night, and Liang Shu looked out the window. There were almost no pedestrians and very few vehicles on the road.

Seeing Gu Hansheng again gave her an illusion that she felt like a world away.

Obviously they only met last night.

He was still putting her shoes on at the time. Thinking of this, Liang Shu's nose was sore, she took a deep breath and abruptly held back the tears.

She tightened her lips, it turned out that she could still cry.

He had been waiting for her at the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Near ten o'clock in the evening, they silently filled out applications, agreements and various forms, without a word during the period.

The process of getting the divorce certificate went smoothly.

Liang Shu looked down at the document in his hand, some words stuck in his throat but couldn't speak.

Gu Hansheng was indifferent throughout.

It was the kind of indifference that Liang Shu couldn't break.

After the two of them finished the final procedure, he raised his foot and walked outside.

He really didn't have a word.

Liang Shu knew that this was the end of the two.

She suddenly felt sad for this way of separation.

She wants to listen to his voice again, no matter what, she will not regret this experience when she thinks of it.

Liang Shu put the divorce certificate in his pocket and strode towards the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

On the steps, Liang Shu's sight only came to capture the tall and long back.
