Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack!-Chapter 367 - 366: Tomorrow

The day broke. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Fang Shaohan had barely slept a wink all night. His eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at the black night outside the window gradually turning white, finally completely becoming bright.

His heart was in constant torment.

The day broke, she should have left too.

Even if she hasn’t left, she must be arranging to leave now.

He never made any promises with Gu Xiaoqing, and their relationship had never reached where he wanted it to be.

Because that woman looked down on him; maybe before, she could blame it on family status differences, but now it’s because Fang Shaohan himself is unwilling. Now what stands between them is heaven and hell.

In the past, if it weren’t for this mission, Fang Shaohan was confident that with his determination and methods, he would still have emerged victorious, and Gu Xiaoqing’s heart would inevitably be his sooner or later.

But now, Fang Shaohan could only think of letting go.

Gu Xiaoqing deserved someone better; he was no longer worthy of her.

Fang Shaohan viciously punched his legs, which couldn’t feel pain at all, completely numb. Fang Shaohan would rather it hurt like hell, at least that would prove there was a chance of recovery, but this numbness was like a knife carving into his heart.

Is a cripple, a man without legs, still considered a man?

Unable to stand again, he didn’t even qualify as a person, let alone anything else. The moment he woke up, he lost the right to fight for love.

The days when Gu Xiaoqing took care of him might be the last memories, the most beautiful ones, memories he could reminisce about when he grew old sitting in a wheelchair.

That was enough, Fang Shaohan closed his eyes. He could even imagine his future life, a wheelchair he couldn’t leave for life, a room he could never walk out of, tearful parents, and his own gradual decline.

But could he change it?

He heard what the doctor said very clearly that day, he knew what it meant, because he had heard the same words countless times about his comrades, and the outcome of such words was rarely standing again, most would end up bedridden for life, or sitting in a wheelchair.

So it’s not that Fang Shaohan doesn’t want to fight, it’s just a situation he has witnessed countless times, which didn’t need more words.

If possible, Fang Shaohan absolutely wouldn’t allow himself to give up, no man should give up, but this feeling of numb legs had already chilled Fang Shaohan to the bone.

He couldn’t let Gu Xiaoqing stay.

Seeing him this helpless, his mother would almost certainly do something, he didn’t even need to think much to guess, he wouldn’t allow that to happen.

Isn’t it best this way now?

Though his once fiery heart was now cold, and the heartache left him speechless, he believed it was for the best.

He was Fang Shaohan, not someone self-deceiving or selfish, though he had indeed acted selfishly once regarding Gu Xiaoqing, knowing his brother’s feelings, he still plunged in regardless.

But Fang Shaohan knew he had no regrets.

Just like now, he still had no regrets.

Lightly closing his eyes, Fang Shaohan let himself plunge into darkness, needing some peace.

The door opened, footsteps were heard, they were not his mother’s familiar steps.

Fang Shaohan felt a stir in his heart.

The curtains were drawn open with a swish, glaring sunlight streamed in from the window, even with eyes closed, Fang Shaohan could feel that piercing light, the window was opened, fresh air flooded into the room.

Footsteps continued towards Fang Shaohan’s bed.

His ears perked up, who was it?

So bold?

He had said not to open the curtains; his anger gradually swelled.

The footsteps stopped at the bedside, then came the sound of running water, Fang Shaohan abruptly opened his eyes, meeting a pair of quiet, black eyes that calmly watched his face.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing it was Gu Xiaoqing, Fang Shaohan didn’t know or understand whether he was happy or angry, it seemed to be both, mixed with some complex emotions, Fang Shaohan’s voice was trembling, also cold.

"Wiping your face, you should start rehabilitation today."

Gu Xiaoqing calmly placed the wet towel on Fang Shaohan’s face, her fingers steadily wiping his cheeks, eyebrows and nose, and then his arms and fingers.

Fang Shaohan angrily flipped Gu Xiaoqing’s towel away, with too much force, or maybe Gu Xiaoqing was unprepared, she was directly flung aside by Fang Shaohan, her whole body collided with the bedside cabinet, the fruits placed on it all crashing to the floor.

Most unfortunately, a thermos flask and cup coincidentally placed on top also fell to the ground with the impact.

Amidst the chaos, Gu Xiaoqing fell to the floor.

"Uh..." Gu Xiaoqing’s groan was almost inaudible, because Fang Shaohan was currently shouting angrily.

"Why are you here? Didn’t I tell you to go away? My parents are here, I don’t need you to take care of me, could it be you fancy me, refuse to leave me, then your taste is really questionable, someone like me isn’t within your reach.

Even if I’m crippled, there are still plenty of women trying hard to marry into the Fang Family, so stop dreaming, I’m not interested in you. Get out quickly."

Fang Shaohan almost shouted those words.

Brutally tearing open the wound, unbearably raw harm.

Gu Xiaoqing had just wanted to speak when the door opened, Fang Shaonan, Feng Qingyang, Han Xiao, and Lu Qi all entered from the doorway.

Fang Shaonan gave a sudden exclamation upon seeing Gu Xiaoqing on the ground, he hurried over and helped her up, "What happened to your arm?"

Gu Xiaoqing’s sleeve was already torn, with dark red blood seeping through, shards of broken glass embedded there, looking somewhat alarming and horrifying.

Fang Shaohan finally saw Gu Xiaoqing’s state, though his heart ached, his face remained unchanged as he turned away unseeingly.

That expression completely infuriated everyone.

"I’m fine, you all sit down, I’ll tidy up soon, then you can sit and talk." Gu Xiaoqing endured the pain and said.

Supporting her arm with one hand, Fang Shaohan really went to extremes, she hadn’t expected such a scene, maybe if she had a bit more caution, she wouldn’t have been hurt.
