Chapter 697 — The Urge to Die

But what Shen Yushu thought was no concern of An Liwen's—he did not like her anyway. A girl like that he wouldn't take even if she threw herself at him; he could never handle her. Bring her into the house and how could a man live? She might even castrate him in the middle of the night!
So An Liwen had always kept Shen Yushu at arm's length, never wanting to provoke her, yet never daring to offend her either. Who made her Gu Mengyao's closest friend?
"Then I'll trouble you! Brother Yutian, true friends show themselves in adversity!" An Liwen was deeply touched. That Chen Yuxuan could show him such care while he lay injured made him feel quite comforted.
Chen Yuxuan dialed his sister Shen Yushu's number.
Shen Yushu had just returned to the ward with Gu Mengyao. Holding Gu Mengyao's hand and looking at her stern expression, she said with a grin, "Yaoyao, what's wrong? Why do you look so unhappy? You cheated death—you should be happy, you got your life back! Look at me: every time I play Super Mario Bros. II with you and I hit a B and don't die, I cheer!"
"..." Gu Mengyao glared at Shen Yushu. "How is that anything like a game? Besides, Wei Zhao has seen you—would you be happy about that?"
"Oh, but I'm not unhappy either. He saw me, so what? I'm going to marry him someday anyway, and then he'll see everything, won't he? When we have a threesome, he'll see it all!" Shen Yushu said, ticking off her fingers. "So he just saw it a little early. What does it matter?"
"..." Gu Mengyao rolled her eyes. She found she simply could not get through to Shen Yushu. Who knew whether there was even such a thing as chastity in that girl's head? Wei Zhao had seen her, and it seemed to bother her not at all; she lived happily every day, merrier than anyone.
Fools truly had the luck of fools—with a head that simple, one never fretted over gains and losses.
"When did I ever say I'd marry him?" Gu Mengyao snorted. "No—you and Wei Zhao must keep this a secret for me, or I'll never be able to marry anyone!"
"Oh, don't worry, only the three of us will ever know. Family business doesn't get shown or told to outsiders!" Shen Yushu nodded.
Gu Mengyao was speechless. She found that Shen Yushu either had not understood a word she said, or was pretending not to. Gu Mengyao suddenly realized what a formidable mind her friend had: when she wanted to understand something, she caught on faster than anyone; when she did not, nothing you said made any difference...
"You are not to mention this again!" Gu Mengyao had to settle for a lower demand, warning Shen Yushu.
"All right, I won't say a word!" Shen Yushu nodded. "Yaoyao, so what do we do now? It's so boring in the hospital, I don't want to stay here anymore—the smell of disinfectant is making me dizzy!"
Gu Mengyao did not really want to stay in the hospital either. Though she had only just recovered from her coma, her whole body was brimming with inexhaustible strength, and she had no idea what Wei Zhao had done to her. Even as she felt grateful, the thought that he had seen her body - and worse still, that it had happened in front of him - made her want to die of shame.
