Gu Zhen hugged Su Lingzhi with both hands and lost himself in memories. The crystal ball seemed to be a memory in his mind that was difficult to describe. He was silent for a long, long time.

"I was not a child that was expected to be born, and no one had ever celebrated my birthday. Later... one year, I received a crystal ball with snowflakes on it as a gift from my mother. Later, my birthday and her death anniversary fell on the same day, so the crystal ball became my farewell gift to her, and it was also my only birthday gift."

Su Lingzhi's heart sank. Didn't Xiang Li say that his mother was locked up in a mental hospital? How could she have passed away?

The crystal chandelier in the living room swayed brightly, spreading its light to the balcony. Gu Zhen sat in the shadow with his back to the light, his eyes lowered so that his expression could not be seen clearly.

Children love their mothers. It is instinctive and they are born with love.

Su Lingzhi hugged him gently, silently comforting him. She didn't even dare to ask about his mother. Few people in Jiangcheng would talk about that past, even Gu Jialiang kept his mouth shut. The last time he was strangled by Gu Zhen and forced into a desperate situation, he said, "You are as crazy as your mother."

But he never attacked Gu Zhen by saying that his mother was crazy.

Gu Zhen’s birthday is in November and he is a Sagittarius.

Su Lingzhi thought to herself that she would celebrate his birthday with him every year from now on.

"Do you...remember her?"

"Remember." Gu Zhen said, "I look a lot like her."

"Then she must be a great beauty."

"My dad fell in love with her at first sight, so of course she was a great beauty." When Gu Zhen mentioned his mother, his tone was a little flat, as if he was talking about a very distant story. "In fact, my memory of her is already very vague."

You have been attached to a crystal ball for so many years. Even if your memory is vague, you should love her very much. Is she the pain of your life?

Gu Zhen took the phone and pulled up a photo for Su Lingzhi. It was a very old photo, a woman in a white dress standing in a rose garden, with a beautiful face and picturesque eyebrows. There was indeed a bit of resemblance between her eyebrows and Gu Zhen, especially the eyes. Both mother and son had affectionate and deep eyes.

If it was born on Gu Zhen, it would be a bit cold, but if it was born on her, she would seem affectionate and charming.

"So beautiful." Su Lingzhi praised, "You really look like her."

Gu Zhen smiled and put the photo away.

"Will you miss her?"

Gu Zhen didn't answer for a long time, and Su Lingzhi didn't insist on an answer. Su Lingzhi smiled and asked, "Gu Zhen, do you want to celebrate your birthday?"

"How to say?"

"If you want to celebrate your birthday, I will celebrate it with you. If you want to visit your aunt's grave, I can also accompany you to do so."

"I don't want to celebrate my birthday, nor do I want to visit the grave."

"...Okay." Su Lingzhi lowered his eyes, not disappointed, "Actually, there's nothing special about birthdays, but it doesn't matter. After all, when I'm thirty, every birthday means I'm one year older, but it doesn't matter."

Gu Zhen, "..."

Su Lingzhi accompanied him on the balcony and drank two pots of Pu'er tea. She didn't feel sleepy at all after drinking too much strong tea and was extremely energetic. After Gu Zhen went to the study to attend an international conference, she took out her mobile phone and chatted with Xu Wanqing and others in the group. Xu Wanqing was a person of action. She had gone to help out at her family's company, and as soon as she took office, she took over the project in Repulse Bay. She had just sent out red envelopes crazily in the group. She wanted to work hard and bid farewell to a life of debauchery and drunkenness. She hoped that Lin Mulai and Shen Yunzhu would send her more red envelopes when they saw the handsome boy and have fun.

Early the next morning, Su Lingzhi rushed to catch a plane. She only had time to blow Gu Zhen a kiss. After staying up all night playing games, she felt exhausted and slept soundly on the plane.

The weather in Anzhou is even hotter than in Jiangcheng. It's like a furnace. Su Lingzhi would sweat after walking outside for five minutes. The film "Sword and Soul" was filmed in Anzhou. It was full of beautiful mountains, rivers and scenery of the motherland. Su Lingzhi was not in the mood to travel around and quickly started filming.

Time passed slowly, and soon it was mid-September. Su Lingzhi had been filming in Anzhou for a month, and she had been taking medicinal food every day, but she had lost a lot of weight, losing 5 or 6 kilograms. She was shocked when she stepped on the scale.

Director Zhang looked at her skinny little face and was also trembling with fear, "Boss Gu, you're not coming to visit us, are you?"

Mr. Gu went on a business trip to Northern Europe again, and he was gone for more than 20 days. In order to avoid the accident from last time, Su Lingzhi kept track of the time and made a video call every day, even if it was only five minutes, as long as he could ensure Gu Zhen's safety.

The herbal medicine master also felt that Su Lingzhi was simply challenging his professional level. "I feed you herbal medicine like this every day. It's all for nourishing the blood. Even a shriveled camel can be fed into a pig. What's wrong with you? Why is your weight dropping? Is it too hard?"

Director Zhang thought to himself, who are you targeting?

Su Lingzhi's scenes are concentrated and she is a bit tired, but how can she lose weight when she eats three meals a day plus a midnight snack?

"Let's go to the hospital and get checked out!"

Su Lingzhi shook his head. "I'm full of energy. I won't go to the hospital."

She was a person who was afraid of seeing a doctor. She would just endure minor illnesses and pains and would never go to the hospital. However, one morning, she woke up with a nosebleed for no apparent reason.

Zhao Xuelan was startled and took a towel to wipe her, wanting to drag her to the hospital, but Su Lingzhi acted as if nothing had happened, "It's nothing, it's just that you took too much medicine and got a sore throat."

The consequence of Su Lingzhi's reluctance to see a doctor was that in the afternoon, when she and Qin Shen were filming an outdoor martial arts scene, she was accidentally hit on the back by Qin Shen's heavy sword. Her eyes went black and she fainted.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Zhao Xuelan and Qin Shen reacted the fastest, one called an ambulance and the other came to hug her.

The location was more than 50 kilometers away from the city, and they didn't know when the ambulance would arrive. The crew didn't have a doctor yet, so Qin Shen didn't care and hurried out holding her, "I'll take her to the hospital!"
