Chapter 941: Chapter 942: Day and Night, the Pain in My Heart Is Like Being Pierced by Thousands of Arrows
He actually wasn’t in that much pain.
It wasn’t like the initial agony, where day and night felt like a thousand arrows piercing his heart.
What replaced it was a numb sensation.
Occasionally, it stung like a needle prick.
Other times, he just felt numb.
It was just that the recurring feeling was somewhat tormenting.
These days, he had turned off his phone.
He was cut off from all external information.
Having managed the company for so many years, he had never been as lax as he was now.
He seemed to have devoted most of his life’s energy to the company, to that ever-expanding business empire.
Yet, from some point on, Gu Qichen suddenly felt that everything in life seemed to become meaningless.
For the first time, he wanted to hide away, to not see anyone, not to talk, to want nothing.
Peace Hall was like an otherworldly paradise.
The people here were very simple.
In front was the large pharmacy, but the backyard was another world altogether.
Behind the yard, there was a piece of artificially cultivated medicinal field.
Though the place wasn’t big,
it was planted with various unknown herbs.
Nowadays, Gu Qichen would help the old master tend to those herbs in the field behind the yard.
The air here seemed to be filled with a kind of tranquilizing herbal fragrance.
Gu Qichen had been here for half a month.
Only then did he feel slightly better, but then Xia Yangyang reappeared.
She crashed into his life again, unannounced, like a demon.
Yet, she was still so lucid.
He, after all, couldn’t see things clearly.
He was still trapped in the illusions of the past.
The corners of Gu Qichen’s mouth curved into a faint smile, “You don’t need to thank me. In that situation, I wouldn’t stand by and watch, no matter who it was.”
What followed was an endless silence.
The two children just stood by the side.
Xia Ye could feel the tension between the two adults.
But Xingxing was completely oblivious.
Holding Xia Yangyang’s hand, Xingxing said, “Auntie Yangyang, Xingxing wants to sleep with you tonight.”
There was only one bed here, and it was a child’s bed.
Xia Ye, living here, also usually squeezed into the small bed with Xingxing.
If three people were to sleep in one bed, there definitely wouldn’t be enough space.
Moreover, Gu Qichen slept right below it.
Xia Yangyang felt that sharing a room with him…
Wasn’t awkward, but painful.
The two of them, once the closest of relationships, had gone through repeated cycles, and now were left to watch helplessly as they became what they are now.
Xia Yangyang felt the pain too.
Now was a special period of their separation.
Their feelings for each other still seemed unresolved.
She just felt it was better for them to keep their distance.
To avoid getting entangled once more.
Xia Yangyang apologetically said, “I’m sorry, Xingxing, Auntie Yangyang can’t stay here tonight, is it okay if I come back to see you tomorrow?”
Xingxing hung his head, looking very disappointed.
Xia Yangyang also felt a twinge of guilt.
Xia Ye had already sensed something amiss and seemed a bit worried.
Xia Yangyang didn’t want to show any signs of strangeness in front of the child.
After all, to a child, a mother and father are the closest people in the world.
She had once agreed with Gu Qichen.
No matter what happened, they had to pretend to be in love in front of the child.
Xia Yangyang said to Xia Ye, “Xia Ye, it’s just that this place is too small. I’ve booked a hotel outside, and I will come again tomorrow.”

Xia Ye then said, “So, is Dad going out with you too?”
Xia Yangyang was taken aback.
Her gaze involuntarily turned towards Gu Qichen.
What kind of reason should she find?
