Gu Mingzhu’s complexion changed slightly as she said, "This is none of your business."
"I’m well aware it’s none of my business, because you know, he’s also in Beijing. That Gao Wenbin hasn’t co back to see you for so many years. He’s fully aware of Ah Chen’s existence but still cut ties with you completely. What are you still clinging to with a man like that?"
"Enough, Xi Jiachen, stop talking," Gu Mingzhu roared.
The corridor suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
After a while,
Xi Jiachen finally spoke, "You see, after all these years, you still can’t bear to hear his na. Just the ntion of it sends you into a frenzy, yet no matter what I do or say, I can’t sway you in the slightest. Mingzhu, what are you still hoping for?"
After saying that, Xi Jiachen turned and left.
Xi Jiachen happened to walk through the hallway.
Xia Yangyang couldn’t hide in ti.
So she stayed put, standing at a distance.
Xi Jiachen seed slightly surprised when he saw Xia Yangyang.
But his gaze lingered on Xia Yangyang for only a second before he left.
Gu Mingzhu stood in the corridor for quite so ti.
She seed to be sobbing, but quickly wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes and left through another hallway.
Only then did Xia Yangyang slowly walk onto the corridor.
Watching Gu Mingzhu’s retreating figure from afar, Xia Yangyang felt an inexplicable complexity in her heart.
Xia Yangyang finally made her way slowly to the door of Gu Zhaohan’s hospital room.
The door to the hospital room wasn’t shut.
It was left ajar.
Xia Yangyang wanted to knock, but feared Gu Zhaohan might be sleeping.
So she gently pushed it open and peeked inside.
Gu Zhaohan wasn’t sleeping.
Instead, he stood on the small balcony of the hospital room, smoking.
One of his hands was still fixed with dical equipnt, hanging by his side.
In the other hand, he held a half-lit cigarette.
Xia Yangyang was genuinely shocked.
Gu Zhaohan never smoked.
Gu Zhaohan seed to hear the noise at the door.
He turned around.
When he saw Xia Yangyang, his eyes visibly shifted.
Then he turned back, "So you’ve finally decided to co see ?"
It had been a long ti since their last parting.
Gu Zhaohan’s arm had been injured twice, shattering the wounds; it must have been very serious.
Because he was still ordered to stay in the hospital for recuperation.
Xia Yangyang stepped inside, "Was it you who had the flowers sent to my office?"
Gu Zhaohan just smiled, "Did you like them?"
"Don’t do such pointless things again. I don’t like them at all."
There was no sign of disappointnt in Gu Zhaohan’s eyes.
As if Xia Yangyang’s reaction was completely within his expectation.
The cigarette in his fingers burned out and he tossed it into the ashtray beside him.
In the Czech crystal ashtray, there was already a layer of ash.
He must have smoked quite a lot.
Xia Yangyang frowned.
Gu Zhaohan walked towards Xia Yangyang, "Yangyang, if you’re telling all this just to deliberately distance yourself from , that’s okay. I’m not angry at all. I’m very happy that you ca."
Xia Yangyang stubbornly said, "I didn’t co because I was worried about you. I’m just here to urge you not to continue doing futile things."
"You feel the need to remind of this every now and then," Gu Zhaohan didn’t care.
He walked over to the table and picked up a bottle of alcohol.
Xia Yangyang couldn’t stand it anymore, "Do the doctors know about you drinking and smoking like this?"
"Yangyang, you’ve forgotten, I am a doctor too."
For a mont, Xia Yangyang found herself at a loss for words.
