Chapter 389 - Nightmare (3)

The dream was too real. Gu Manxi couldn’t breathe. The endless despair was pounding on her soul.

“AH–”

Gu Manxi woke up from the dream and could smell hospital disinfectants.

Chuchu was beside her bed, calling her worriedly.

Gu Manxi couldn’t hold back her tears and they fell instantly. She struggled to hold Gu Chu tightly, her eyes were red, and large tears fell. “Chuchu… I’m so glad that you’re still alive. That’s Great.”

Gu Manxi held Gu Chu’s fair and clean little face with both hands, and the fear in the dream had yet to dissipate.

In the dream, Chuchu was starving to the point of looking for her mother in the royal kindergarten. Gu Manxi’s heart was in pain, and her tears fell.

“Mama, Don’t Cry. Don’t cry.” Gu Chu grabbed Gu Manxi’s hand and blew on the needle bandage on the back of her hand. “The injection must be very painful. I’ll blow on it for you, and it won’t hurt anymore.”

Gu Manxi sobbed silently.

Gu Chu was shocked. What kind of nightmare did Mommy have!

“Manxi! D-Don’t cry.” Song Chen came in with hot porridge. As soon as he came in, he saw Gu Manxi with tears all over her face.

Song Chen’s heart suddenly ached, and he quickly put down the porridge, he walked over and touched Gu Manxi’s forehead. “Your fever hasn’t subsided yet — you should sleep for a while. You were shooting a fight scene, and there are many bruises on your arms and waist. I’ll get the nurse to apply medicine for you.”

Gu Manxi was shooting a fight scene today, and did not use a stand-in.

After shooting for five hours, there were bruises of all sizes on her arms, legs, and waist. The ropes around her waist were tight, and her waist was bruised.

Song Chen’s heart ached and he felt helpless.

He really wanted to bring his wife home. In the future, he would take care of both of them. Filming must’ve been thought for her.

Gu Manxi’s mind was still flashing with the scenes from her dream. She looked at Song Chen in a daze. In her dream, she had had countless opportunities to ask song Chen for help, but she knew that she was dirty and did not have the face to look for Song Chen.

“S-Song Chen…” Gu Manxi’s nose twitched as she called his name.

Song Chen quickly came over. “Manxi, are you feeling unwell?”

Gu Manxi felt a little wronged. “I…”

Fortunately, nothing happened in the dream. Fortunately, you still returned to my side in the end. Fortunately, Chuchu was still alive. Fortunately, I was able to find my career and life back.

Song Chen was nervous. He thought that Gu Manxi was seriously injured during filming, so he was extremely anxious. “Why don’t I arrange for the doctor to prepare an X-ray for you –”

“No need.” Gu Manxi stopped him and stammered, “I’m… I’m a little hungry.”

Song Chen was stunned for a moment and quickly brought the hot porridge over.

Seeing that Gu Manxi still had the IV drip and had a needle on the back of her hand, Song Chen said politely, “Chuchu, move aside. I’ll feed Manxi the porridge myself.”

Gu Chu: …Oh.

Moving to the side, she watched him feed her mom the porridge.

She rolled her eyes. Dad, can you please stop smiling like a fool? You look like a peasant.

Gu Chu didn’t want to be a third wheel, so she took the initiative to leave. “Mommy, Uncle Song, I’m going downstairs to buy potato chips. I’ll be back soon.” As she said that, she ran out. Song Chen’s assistant, Wang, immediately followed Gu Chu and protected her in secret.

In the ward, Gu Manxi looked exhausted. She couldn’t eat anymore after eating half a bowl of porridge.

Song Chen looked at her pale little face and was secretly angry.

He had to talk to the director in person!

Nobody sane enough would force someone to shoot five hours of fighting scenes in a row. Why don’t you try doing it yourself?! Believe it or not, I’ll withdraw my investment and have you exiled!
