Clinging to Devoted Fiancé, Heiress Slays the World!-Chapter 648: I Won’t Let Go, I Will Not Let You Go!

"However many you print, I’ll tear up that many—I don’t fear my hands will tire." Ji Wei gazed at the ceiling softly as she spoke, a single tear slipping down her cheek.

Gu Moqian said nothing further, coldly turning and leaving the bedroom.

The door slammed shut heavily, leaving the room enveloped in silence.

Ji Wei lay there quietly, tears streaming uncontrollably. After some time, she raised her hand to wipe away the traces of tears on her face, forcing herself to muster some energy as she reached for the phone on the bedside table.

Before understanding the full situation, she absolutely would not lose hope.

"Second Young Master Xi, I want you to tell me—what exactly has happened during this time?" Once the call connected, Ji Wei got straight to the point.

Xi Nanfeng remained silent, not responding.

"Is it Moqian stopping you from saying anything?" Unable to hear his reply, Ji Wei took a deep breath, continuing, "Fine, then I won’t ask. I’ll figure it out another way..."

"Forget it, this matter can’t stay hidden forever; I’ll tell you everything!"

Xi Nanfeng gritted his teeth, revealing to Ji Wei the news—Gu Zhizhou had been hospitalized following a car accident and was in a coma.

Ji Wei listened, feeling her spine go cold and her heart pound. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

After the call ended, she remained dazed for a long time.

The last time she’d seen Gu Zhizhou had been at the Gu Family’s old manor. He was lively and approachable, treating her, his daughter-in-law, quite warmly—a man of great charm.

Ji Wei could never have imagined that such a good person would end up in a car accident, still unconscious to this day...

Even she could barely bear such devastating news; how much harder would it be for Gu Moqian?

She recalled that Gu Moqian’s grandparents had also passed away in a tragic car accident. And now, Gu Zhizhou had faced the same fate—the pain in Gu Moqian’s heart must be immeasurable...

Ji Wei could no longer remain calm. With trembling hands, she lifted the covers, grabbed her long trench coat, threw it on, and hurriedly walked out.

The corridor was eerily quiet.

There were many guest rooms on the second floor, but Ji Wei had no idea which one Gu Moqian was staying in. She knocked on doors one by one: "Moqian, are you inside? Open the door, I have something important to tell you. Moqian..."

The sound of her knocking startled the old butler, who rushed upstairs to ask, "Young Madam, is something wrong?"

"Tom, do you know where Moqian is sleeping?" Ji Wei asked urgently.

The old butler recalled seeing light spilling out from the study earlier and answered, "The young master is likely still in the study."

Ji Wei’s face lit up with joy as she thanked him and hurried downstairs.

In her haste, Ji Wei paused at the study door to catch her breath before raising her hand to knock: "Moqian, could you open the door? I need to speak with you."

There was a brief silence in the study before the sound of footsteps shuffled inside.

The door swung open, revealing Gu Moqian with a cool, detached expression.

Seeing him, Ji Wei’s eyes instantly welled up. Without any hesitation, she reached out and hugged him tightly.

"Let go."

Gu Moqian’s voice was low and stern.

"No, I won’t let go!"

Ji Wei pressed her face against his chest stubbornly, her sobs wetting his shirt. "Even if you threaten me with divorce, I won’t let go. Stop hiding it from me—about Father..."

Her voice faltered as she choked on her words, struggling to continue: "I already know."

Gu Moqian’s body stiffened abruptly. His face darkened as he pushed her away once more.

"What does it matter that you know? My decision won’t change." His pitch-black eyes were devoid of warmth, his cold gaze fixed on her.

Ji Wei stared at him in utter disbelief, her long lashes still glistening with tears. "Why? We’re husband and wife—shouldn’t we face hardships together?"
