Chapter 249 Pregnancy

The fire on the opposite side was still spreading towards the surrounding area, and there was a burnt smell in the air.Gu Shi'an was completely out of his mind.At this time, she did not forget to take care of the wounded. She was afraid that the people below would come to the mountain on a whim, so she found a place nearby where she could hide.

The surroundings were quiet, yet noisy, and she couldn't even control her panic.I was so flustered that I didn't know what to do with myself.

She knew that all she could do now was to do nothing, wait for Chen Xiao's safe return, and not hold him back.Easier said than done.

She just stared at the sky without moving, watching the fire gradually go out and spread to other directions, watching the sky turn pale.

Gu Shi'an never thought that time would pass so long.It's been so long, it seems like a lifetime has passed.

The fire on the opposite hillside was extinguished, leaving only the occasional crackling and crackling of branches.The clothes on her body were not completely dry, she couldn't help shivering when she stood up.

Squatting you for so long in the middle of the night, without any gain, the people below have already left.Gu Shi'an looked at the gray sky in the distance, and was about to see where to leave, when her eyes suddenly went dark, and she fell to the ground with a bang.

After such a night, she was already exhausted, but she just held on until dawn, how could she go on any longer.

Gu Shi'an woke up in a jolt, and when she opened her eyes, she realized that she was covered with a blanket.Assistant Sun sat aside.

She had a nightmare, and the tears in the corners of her eyes were still wet.Then he turned over and sat up all of a sudden, looked at Assistant Sun, and asked, "How long have I been sleeping? Is Chen Xiao back?"

Her voice was terribly hoarse.A pair of eyes were dazed, so helpless, but looking at Assistant Sun with hope.

She was in a mess, her hair was messed up, and her face was extremely pale.

Assistant Sun couldn't bear to look at her, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, Mr. Chen will be fine. Someone has already passed over there."

This meant that Chen Xiao hadn't been seen yet.

Gu Shi'an felt dizzy for a while, controlled his hands not to tremble, and said in a hoarse voice: "He went to find Xiao Si. Is there any sign of Xiao Si?"

Assistant Sun said: "Not yet. Don't think too much, no news now is good news."

How could Gu Shi'an not think too much, knowing that no matter how much he asked, he couldn't get a result.Sitting blankly for a while, she asked about the man with her.

Assistant Sun said that that person was fine, but Mu Cang injured his leg and had to be sent to the hospital as soon as possible.

Gu Shi'an nodded, fell silent for a while, and asked, "Can I go to that wooden house to see?"

Chen Xiao went back, which meant that Xiao Si must be there.As long as you go back, you can find some clues.

"Don't worry, someone is checking over there. I'll take you to the hospital first." Assistant Sun said.

How could Gu Shi'an listen to him, and said: "I want to go there." Chen Xiao's whereabouts are unknown now, even if she was sent to the hospital, she would not be able to stay.

She has always been stubborn, so Assistant Sun didn't speak now, which was a tacit consent.

The car was quiet along the way, and Assistant Sun picked up a phone call from time to time.The other party didn't know what they had said, so he hung up the phone after saying a few words.

From last night until now, Gu Shi'an hasn't had a single drop of water.Since she refused to go to the hospital, she must eat something.There was no food in the barren mountains, so Assistant Sun gave her a bottle of water and a piece of bread.

She originally shook her head not to want it, but she paused for a moment before taking it and biting slowly.No matter what, it is necessary to replenish physical strength.

She finished eating a piece of bread in a short time, and looked sideways out of the window.It was still in the morning light, and it was hazy outside the window.The fire last night did not know where it spread, and the smell of burnt burning was in his nostrils.

She didn't ask Assistant Sun how they found them, she just looked outside without moving.

Chen Xiao's whereabouts were unknown. Although Assistant Sun didn't show anything on his face, he was anxious in his heart.From time to time, he raised his wrist to check the time.After driving so far, Assistant Sun's phone rang.He didn't pick it up this time, but asked the driver in front to stop, opened the door and got out of the car.

We have reached the branch point, and the call is from the driver behind.

Assistant Sun got out of the car and ordered that person to be sent to the hospital. Compared with the woman, that person had a bit more conscience. Knowing that Chen Xiao's going was uncertain, he insisted on going with them.

His leg was injured by Mucang, not only failed to heal last night, but was soaked and tossed.No matter what, surgery must be performed as soon as possible.Assistant Sun politely asked him to go to the hospital for surgery to remove the bullet.He can't help if he stays, and he will be notified if there is any news here.

He really couldn't be of much help if he stayed, he hesitated for a while, but he still didn't insist.Gu Shi'an's stubborn and pale face suddenly appeared in his mind, and he said in a low voice: "Mrs. Chen, please pay more attention. She..."

Gu Shi'an was too calm, he was worried that if something happened to Chen Xiao, she would do something.

Assistant Sun nodded heavily, told the driver to drive slowly and pay more attention, and then got back into the car.

In the car, Gu Shi'an was still sitting quietly and didn't ask him anything when he came back.

It was more than ten minutes after the car arrived at the cabin last night, and the surrounding area was burned bare, leaving only the lonely house.

Today was quite different from last night. Last night, there were all Chen Xun's people here, but today, several off-road vehicles were parked on the narrow road, and a cordon was even pulled up.No need to ask any more, Gu Shi'an didn't know that everyone busy at the scene was plainclothes.

Assistant Sun and the people here obviously knew each other, and when he got out of the car, someone took him to meet the head of cleaning here.

Neither Xiao Si nor Chen Xiao was seen, but Chen Xun and a few little Luo Luo were caught.Chen Xun was also injured, and his ribs had been broken.I had to keep him asking about the situation here, and didn't send him to the hospital, but let the accompanying doctor deal with it briefly.

The woman who was stuffed into the back seat of the car by Gu Shi'an was also fatal, and she had already been sent to the hospital at this moment.

The boss here asked Assistant Sun if he wanted to see Chen Xun, and Assistant Sun said he didn't need it for the time being, and went to see inside first.

Since Chen Xun was kept, it means that he should not have asked anything.He is clear about Xiao Si's methods. Chen Xun probably would rather fall into the hands of the police than fall into Xiao Si's hands.Therefore, the ordinary questioning method must not be able to ask.

Obviously, the wooden house has just been built not long ago, and the soil on the ground inside the house is still soft, and even the footprints inside can be seen.

There are many bullet holes on the pillars in the wooden house. You don't need to look carefully to know that there must have been a fierce battle here.

Assistant Sun's face was solemn, he already knew the general situation here, stood upstairs, looked around, and asked in a deep voice: "Since Xiao Si is here, then he will hide in the where?"

The surrounding area was burned bare.There is absolutely nowhere to hide.

Xiao Si and Chen Xiao are mortal enemies, Xiao Si knows that he wants Chen Xiao to die, and Chen Xiao also wants him to die.He was aware of Chen Xiao's ruthlessness, and knew that as long as he was around, Chen Xiao would definitely kill him if he tried every means.

Although he is in the underworld, he is greedy for life and afraid of death.Therefore, he must find a safe place to stay and push out the puppet Chen Xun.

But around here, there is no absolutely safe place.

Before Assistant Sun could think of anything, Gu Shi'an, who had been silent with a white face, suddenly said, "Dark room."

Yes, it is safest to hide in a dark room.

This wooden house was built by Xiao Si, so it is entirely possible to build a darkroom basement.

The boss thought he was almost ready to call it a day, when he heard what Gu Shian said, a flash of light flashed in his mind, and he immediately asked people to see if there was a basement.

As long as there is a target, it is obviously easy to find it in a small space.It didn't take long for someone to find the basement.Xiao Si was indeed careful enough, the entrance to the basement was not inside the house, but in the wooden shed outside the house.In order not to arouse suspicion, a lot of firewood was piled up.Everyone only searched inside, so they didn't notice this side.

Although he knew that the building must be empty at this moment, the leader of the team still took the wooden warehouse carefully and led the people down first.As expected, it was indeed empty inside.

But before leaving, there was obviously a bloody battle here.There was dried blood on the ground, and the ground was a mess.Xiao Si should be watching the above from below, and there is even a monitor below.But it has been smashed.There are bullet holes in the wall, and it is not known who is bleeding here, or if they are all bleeding.

The place below is already a mess. Although Xiao Si's hiding place was found, he didn't get any clues about swimming.When Chen Xiao came back again, he wanted to kill Xiao Si.Both of them have disappeared now, which can only explain that Xiao Si should have escaped.But at that time, there was a fire all over the mountain, where would he escape?
The thread seems to be broken here again.The only way now is to let people search the mountain.Assistant Sun discussed with the boss, and then said to Gu Shi'an: "We are already dispatching people and helicopters. Even if we dig three feet, we will find Mr. Chen. I'll send you back to rest first. You will be notified immediately if there is any news."

How could Gu Shi'an leave, shook his head, and said in a low voice, "I won't go back, I'll just stay here."

Assistant Sun had nothing to do with her, so he was silent for a while and said, "Go to the car and take a rest first."

Gu Shi'an nodded silently and returned to the car.

The driver also got out of the car to help, but the car was empty.She got into the car and sat there blankly.

Assistant Sun came back not long after, and told her that they had assigned people to search the mountains.When the caller comes over, he will search by inch.As long as Chen Xiao is still here, he will definitely be able to find out.

When Chen Xiao came up, even the fire here was already going out.There must still be fire in the woods, and the temperature must still be high.No matter how desperate Xiao Si was, he couldn't risk his life to get into the woods.

Gu Shi'an always felt that something was wrong.

Her eyes fell on the wheel marks on the left side of the mountain, and she suddenly opened the door and got out of the car.

There is a very conspicuous row of wheel marks at the farthest edge.Gu Shi'an squatted down and looked at it, then looked up at Assistant Sun, and asked, "Can you tell the car from the wheel marks?"

Assistant Sun naturally knew what she meant. He said he was looking for someone to ask, and immediately went to find the team leader.

Xiao Si can be regarded as a big fish, and the personnel he brought are all professional.They all came by car, and the wheel marks on that side have been repeated.But it didn't take long for the professional to speculate that there were at least three cars of different models on the scene.

There are many branches and weeds here, and it is not difficult to cover the car on the side of the road at night.When Gu Shian and Chen Xiao came over last night, their nerves were tense all the time, and it was dark all around, so they didn't notice if the car was hidden.

When they came, there were only two cars left on the scene, one was driven by Gu Shi'an and Chen Xiao.The other one is Chen Xun's car.So, where did the other car go?

Then a guess, the situation is obviously complicated.The disappearance of the car meant that Chen Xiao and Xiao Si might not be here anymore.So, where do they go?

The leader immediately made a phone call to ask for instructions, and thoroughly investigated all of Xiao Si's situations.

They didn't dare to do anything before, but now that Xiao Si's group has no leader, it is obviously the best time to do it.It will definitely turn all of Xiao Si's territory upside down.

Assistant Sun made several phone calls in a row, and when he came back, he saw Gu Shi'an squatting on the side of the road vomiting wildly.She only ate a piece of bread and drank half a bottle of water, and couldn't spit out anything at all.But she was still vomiting, as if she was about to vomit her stomach out.

Hearing the footsteps behind, Gu Shi'an stood up, wiped the corner of his mouth with his hand, squeezed out a pale smile, and said, "It's okay. I must have caught a cold."

Assistant Sun looked at her pale face and said, "Get in the car, let's go back. Mr. Chen probably isn't here anymore, and they will leave someone to continue searching. Go back first and find a way."

He had been by Chen Xiao's side for so many years, and Gu Shi'an believed in him.She nodded and followed him into the car.

Assistant Sun went back to greet the team leader before getting into the car.

His face was serious, and he didn't take out his cigarette because of Gu Shi'an's presence.Gu Shi stayed quietly for a while, and then suddenly asked, "How do you know we're there?"

"Mr. Chen placed a positioning on your body. It was placed on your shoes. You can't see it when you are disturbed by the wooden house, but you can see it when you go out of the interference range. You disappeared by the lake in the end. You jumped into it. The water is broken, so I guessed and found it.”

In fact, it took some effort, but fortunately, I found someone familiar with the opposite side.Otherwise, it would be impossible to find them so quickly.

Gu Shi'an was so dazed, he was stunned for a while, looked at Assistant Sun, and asked, "Why didn't he put it on his body?"

Assistant Sun was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "Xiao Si has always been cunning, if you let him go, he might find out."

They would stare closely at Chen Xiao, but not her.Because, in their eyes, she was a burden following Chen Xiao.Who would take a burden seriously?

Gu Shi'an closed his eyes and stopped talking.

For the next time, neither of them spoke.Assistant Sun had a lot of phone calls. He kept making outgoing calls and incoming calls.

The last call was from Chang Yu, and Assistant Sun handed the phone to Gu Shi'an.Before Gu Shi'an could speak, Chang Li on the phone told her that she was waiting for her at the intersection next to her.And tell her not to worry.Chen Xiao will definitely be found.

Gu Shi'an wanted to squeeze out a smile, but he couldn't, and finally hummed in a hoarse voice.

The car drove to the main road, and Chang Yan was standing on the side of the road as expected.A tall off-road vehicle was parked beside her.

Gu Shi'an had never seen this car before, but he didn't need to guess, he also knew that someone accompanied Chang Qian to come here.The car stopped slowly, Gu Shi'an took a breath, and was about to open the door to get out of the car, his head felt dizzy, his eyes were dark, and he fell out of the car.

It was as if she heard someone calling her name in her ear, but she couldn't open her eyes no matter what.

Gu Shi'an fell into a nightmare.She dreamed that Chen Xiao was covered in bullet holes and blood, standing in the dark.She wanted to rush over to hug her, but no sooner had she rushed over than there was anyone left.

This dream of hers was very long, Xiao Si's ferocious face and Chen Xiao's bloody figure appeared alternately, her tears kept sliding down.He wanted to struggle and rush over, but his body seemed to be bound and he couldn't move.He could only watch helplessly as Chen Xiao fell into a pool of blood.

When Gu Shian opened his eyes again, many people surrounded the bed, including doctors, nurses, and Luo Chan in a suit.Standing on the far side is Chang Yan.As soon as Gu Shi'an moved, she helped her up and said, "Is there anything uncomfortable?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Chan stepped forward.He took the sphygmomanometer from the nurse's hand and measured her blood pressure.

With him here, there is no need for a doctor.The doctors and nurses left soon, and there were only three people left in the ward.

Gu Shi'an asked almost immediately: "Any news?"

She was weak, with no color in her face.

Chang Xie didn't answer, and Luo Chan didn't speak either.It was extremely quiet in the ward.After a while, Luo Ju put away the sphygmomanometer, looked at her, and said, "You are pregnant."

This news undoubtedly shocked Gu Shian, she just looked at Luo Chan in a daze.After a long time, I looked down at my still flat stomach.

Luo Ju didn't give her a chance to speak, and then said: "It's been more than seven weeks. Your body is weak and there are signs of threatened miscarriage. The doctor told you to stay in bed temporarily."

His tone was calm.

Gu Shi'an raised his head with great effort, and gently stroked his stomach.

Chang Li stood beside her, and asked softly, "What do you want to eat, I'll ask Xiao Hu to bring some over. You have a child now, so you will be nourished if you eat more."

No one mentioned anything about Chen Xiao.

Gu Shi'an squeezed out a weak smile and said, "You can eat anything."

Chang Chen nodded, said something to make a phone call, and then walked out quickly.

Suddenly there were only Gu Shian and Luo Ju left in the ward. Gu Shian shifted his gaze to him and asked, "Is there any bad news about Chen Xiao?"

Her face was extremely pale, as if she was about to fall down at any moment.She knew very well that if the news from Chen Xiao was good news, then they would definitely tell her when she woke up.Instead of telling her that she was pregnant.

There was a moment of trance on her face, and before Luo Chan could speak, she continued: "Sooner or later, we all need to know."

Luo Chan was silent, and after a long time, he spoke with great effort: "Just an hour ago, that missing car crashed into the guardrail and fell under the cliff."

Every word he spoke was labored.When I got to the back, I couldn't talk anymore.

On the cliff over there, the car fell off, and it was almost impossible to survive.

Gu Shi'an felt dizzy again, and she pinched her palm vigorously.Forced himself to wake up, looked up at Luo Ju, and said expectantly, "Chen Xiao might not be in the car, right? Right?"

Her voice was weak, as if it would disappear at any moment.Luo Chan didn't dare to look her in the eyes, let alone how to answer her, so he fell silent.

His silence already said everything.

Somewhere in her heart seemed to be stabbed by a knife, the pain made her almost breathless.There was an uncontrollable sob of grief in his throat.She shook her head vigorously, and said over and over again: "He must not be in the car, he must not be in the car."

She just said it over and over again, as if giving herself confidence.Pulling out the infusion tube in his hand, he was about to get off the bed, and murmured, "I'm going to ask Assistant Sun to find out, Chen Xiao must not be in the car."

She was stopped by Luo Ju just as she got out of bed, and he said silently, "Assistant Sun is not here now, he is the one who sent the news."

How could Gu Shi'an believe what he said at this moment, and said over and over again: "I don't believe it, I don't believe it, I want to hear what he said with my own ears."

She was struggling to get out of bed when Chang Li called and came in. Seeing her, Gu Shi'an seemed to see hope, his empty eyes came into focus, and he asked almost pleadingly: "Ah Li, what is he doing?" It’s all false, it’s all false, right?”

Unable to control it anymore, tears rolled down from her eyes.

Chang Li didn't speak, but stepped forward and hugged her tightly.After a long time, he said with difficulty: "I haven't seen anyone yet, so I can't be sure for now. I'll keep an eye on it myself. Shi'an, no matter what, you have to think about the baby in your stomach."

Assistant Sun was watching the search in person, but if he fell from such a high place, his chances of surviving were extremely slim.
