Chapter 39: Kick out the white moonlight, the Best Actor is mine! -39
"Husband!" Mu Wanwan cried out in anguish, tears streaming down her face. She desperately tried to rush towards Gu Zhishen, but her manager held her back tightly. The manager cried out anxiously, "Don't go! It's too dangerous!"
"No, I can't just stand by and watch him get hurt. I have to go help. Ah Shen is in danger!" Mu Wanwan struggled, her heart filled with worry and fear.
"Sister-in-law, calm down. Going there will only make things worse. Brother Gu will have to be distracted to protect you!" The others nearby also advised.
Just then, Gu Zhishen gritted his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain, and struggled to his feet. His face was pale, but his eyes were unusually determined, as if nothing could defeat him.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Brother Jin, knife in hand, confronted the crowd with a ferocious expression. He glared at Gu Zhishen and cursed through gritted teeth, "You, Gu Zhishen, how dare you play dirty tricks on me!"
Suddenly, a group of police officers surged into the room like a tidal wave. The lead officer, with a booming voice, shouted, "Chen Guanjin, put down the knife immediately!"
Jin Ge burst into wild laughter at everyone: "Well, I said I wouldn't call the police, Gu Zhishen, you actually went back on your word!" Seeing the police arrive, a huge weight was finally lifted from Gu Zhishen's heart, but he knew that things were far from over.
But how could Brother Jin so easily accept his fate? A cunning glint flashed in his eyes as he slowly crouched down, like a cheetah about to pounce, cautiously preparing to place the knife on the ground. Suddenly, he sprang up like an arrow released from a bow, charging forward with the sharp blade in hand, like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey towards Gu Zhishen.
It all happened so fast, catching everyone off guard. Just then, Mu Wanwan reacted swiftly, shoving her manager aside like a whirlwind and pushing Gu Zhishen away first. Time seemed to freeze at that moment; everyone stared wide-eyed as the knife, like a venomous snake, mercilessly plunged into Mu Wanwan's back.
Seeing this, the pig was utterly devastated. It couldn't believe its owner could be so foolish. The affection level was almost at its peak, the baby was already growing in its belly, and in a few months it would be born, completing its mission. But now… everything could be ruined.
But now... this is only the first mission, is it going to fail like this? It shouldn't end like this!
"Master! How could you be so foolish!"
Gu Zhishen was speechless. The police rushed forward and firmly restrained Jin Ge, cursing all the while.
He pulled Mu Wanwan tightly into his arms, his voice choked with emotion, "Wife, how could you be so foolish! Why did you push me away!"
He cried his heart out, his hands trembling, as if he had lost his soul and didn't know where to put them.
The knife, like a demon's fangs, mercilessly pierced her back, and blood flowed out like a burst dam, staining her white clothes red.
"Ambulance! Ambulance! Call an ambulance quickly!"
"Ding, Affection level 100! Congratulations on achieving 100 affection points! Affection level task completed, please keep up the good work."
Looking at the scene before it, the pig couldn't help but shed tears of regret, its heart filled with sorrow. Did it really have to exchange its life for this last bit of goodwill? It suddenly realized that this setting was too unfair, and couldn't help but feel sorry for its owner and aggrieved.
What's the point of completing the favorability task if you're dead?
Mu Wanwan smiled bitterly to herself. She had no time to care about the favorability rating announced by the system. At this moment, she just wanted to take a good look at the man in front of her.
With all her might, she lifted that incredibly heavy hand, her movements as gentle as if handling a rare treasure, and softly stroked his cheek. She wanted to imprint his face deeply into her mind, so that even if she lost consciousness the next second, she could keep this image forever etched in her memory.
"Honey, don't cry." Her voice was weak and hoarse, but filled with endless tenderness and love. She forced a smile, as warm and radiant as a flower blooming in spring. She imitated how he usually comforted her, speaking softly to soothe his inner pain.
He held her hand tightly, as if afraid she would leave if he let go. He brought her hand to his lips and kissed it passionately again and again, his eyes filled with longing and reluctance.
"Wife, I love you. You must hold on. Think of me and our child. The three of us have so many bright futures ahead of us." His voice choked with emotion, and tears streamed down his face, dripping onto her hand.
Mu Wanwan felt his love, and she smiled and nodded, her eyes revealing determination and courage. However, she clearly felt her life force draining away bit by bit, and her senses were gradually fading. Strangely, the baby inside her seemed to become unusually active, kicking incessantly, as if it too knew what was about to happen…
At the hospital, Gu Zhishen crouched outside the operating room, clutching his head, his face filled with pain and despair. His parents rushed over after receiving the news. When they saw their son covered in blood, Gu's mother nearly collapsed, but thankfully Gu's father caught her in time. The two quickly went to their son.
"Ah Shen!" Gu's mother called out her son's name with heartache.
Gu Zhishen slowly raised his head, his eyes empty and lifeless, his face covered in blood, which made people feel pity.
"Mom! Do you think Wanwan might..." His voice choked with sobs, filled with endless fear and unease, as if he would completely collapse at any moment.
Gu's mother was heartbroken, but she knew she couldn't collapse now. She reached out her hand, trembling, trying to help her son up.
"Ah Shen, you must be strong. Wanwan and the baby need you. Mom believes Wanwan is lucky and she and the baby will be safe and sound."
Gu Zhishen slapped himself twice in remorse, blaming himself: "Why, why wasn't it me lying inside!" He would rather bear all the pain himself than let Wanwan suffer any harm.
At this moment, Gu Zhishen was filled with regret and pain. He kept blaming himself for not protecting Wanwan, and even felt that he was unworthy of being a husband and father. But at the same time, he understood that the most important thing now was to wait for the surgery results and pray that Wanwan and the child would be safe and sound.
Seeing her son in such pain, Gu's mother could only silently shed tears, her heart filled with guilt and admiration for Wanwan's courage.
Couples are often said to be like birds in the same forest, flying away separately when disaster strikes; many can only love each other but cannot stay together. Not everyone can shield their loved one from harm. Gu's mother vowed that once Wanwan recovered, she would treat her even better.
