Chapter 1403 Not Important Anymore 6

When Gu Lingsha arrived at the hospital, it was around 11 in the morning and was almost noon. The hospital was still crowded, especially in the inpatient ward.

Soon, she found Gu Qiwu's ward, and from afar, she could see policemen guarding the entrance. She had almost forgotten that he was still under detention because of Wang Qin's affairs. The last time Doris made an earnest request to see him, he had been immediately taken to meet her, but he had suffered injuries. Then, he was sent to the hospital to seek treatment.

Gu Lingsha was standing outside the door. Through the window, she could see Gu Qiwu lying on the hospital bed and looking out of the window. His expression was very calm and he seemed unfazed, but it seemed like he was lonelier than before.

It was cold like a cool breeze was passing through a bleak and barren forest, and there was an indescribable sense of loneliness.

Gu Lingsha could not remember the last time Gu Qiwu had smiled at her. For as long as she could remember, her father seemed to be strict and rigid all the time. She could never understand him.

She had always remembered her father as someone who treated her mother well, and he would always try his best to give Doris whatever she wanted. Whenever he traveled or went on business trips, he would often come back with gifts for Doris and her. Gu Qiwu had never treated Doris badly. All these years, he had never gotten involved with other women, except for Mu Zixi. People always thought that he and Doris were a loving couple.

She was naïve to think that what they shared was love. Once upon a time, she had been envious and had yearned for a relationship like theirs.

However, when she looked back, many things were probably different from what she expected. Now that Gu Qiwu and Doris had been separated by life and death, could this be the end of their struggles, grievances, and resentment?

'Could this be the end?' Gu Lingsha thought to herself.

Still, she would not know the answer because...She thought about Doris, who was still lying in the mortuary and had already breathed her last breath...

She stood watching outside the room for a long time. Inside the room, Gu Qiwu was just lying down and looking out of the window. He appeared motionless and tired. His weary eyes longed to catch a glimpse of the soft sunlight.

After struggling for a while, she finally brought herself to enter the room. She walked in slowly and stood next to the bed while staring at Gu Qiwu, appearing conflicted.

Up until this point, she had to admit that she did have some resentment in her heart because if it was not for...Things probably would not have ended up the way they did.

Gu Lingsha's red lips trembled, and just when she was about to say something, Gu Qiwu whose back faced her, seemed to have realized she was there, so he spoke and interrupted her thoughts, "When did you come back?"

She could not hear any emotions in his calm tone. All Gu Lingsha could think about in this deafening silence was death. Nevertheless, this silence actually suppressed the anger in her heart.

"My mother is dead. Don't you feel sad at all?" Gu Lingsha said as she stared at Gu Qiwu's silhouette, expressing her dissatisfaction through her tone.

"I'd have been sad if she could survive. Maybe I'll think about it." Gu Qiwu still had his back turned to her as he said indifferently, "Since you're back, I assume you must've visited your mother. Qi Feng should have told you everything."

Upon hearing that, Gu Lingsha's face darkened and she glanced down. "Father, even if you haven't treated Mother and me badly all these years, you still shouldn't have deceived her like that! You were so unfair to her!"

"Then, how would you define fairness? Do you want to talk about fairness? Were Mu Zixi, Lingtian, and Lingshi treated with any fairness? Your mother could go to the extent of killing Lingtian for her own gain. Was that what you call fairness? You once said that if it wasn't for Lingtian, ​​you might not have been able to live until now. The reason you are alive is that Ling Tian traded his own life for yours. Now, he's gone and the culprit who orchestrated the car accident was your own biological mother..."

When Gu Qiwu said this, he suddenly paused. He slowly turned around and looked at Gu Lingsha. He noticed her little face getting paler.

"Lingsha, Lingtian, and Lingshi are both your family members. One of them was your brother who traded your life with his own, while the other is your sister who has been neglected for more than 20 years. I don't want to hurt anyone of you, and as a father, all I wanted was...I want all of you to live peacefully."

Gu Lingsha sneered coldly when Gu Qiwu said that, "Move on and live a peaceful life? Father, do you think that's even possible?"

"As long as there is a will, there is a way," Gu Qiwu replied.

Gu Lingsha's expression dulled. She looked at Gu Qiwu and finally blurted out the question, "I heard that you plan to hand the Hui Gu Corporation over to Mu Lingshi. Is that so?"

Gu Qiwu paused, then raised his head and met her gaze. He said faintly, "Is this why you are here today? You're just like your mother. You've always thought about taking over the business." He could feel her intentions crystal-clear in his heart.

Gu Lingsha smiled coldly. "You're right, but I still want an explanation. Why did Mother choose to end up like this? Don't you think you're also responsible for her death? Father, why did Mother end up like this? It's because she was pressured by all of you! All of you! Do you understand?" She was agitated as she raised her voice.

"If you want things that don't belong to you, you'll have to pay a price. I have already planned the company's affairs and I know what I should do. You don't need to come over and say anything anymore since I have my own plans."

"Plan? What plan? Are you really going to hand the Hui Gu Corporation over to Mu Lingshi? Is she even qualified? Father! I'm your daughter. If you do this, what about me? What can I do?" Gu Lingsha clenched her fists and stared at Gu Qiwu in a daze. "Now that Mother is gone, aren't you...?"
