601: Chapter 601: Leaving Tomorrow; A Troubled Heart 601: Chapter 601: Leaving Tomorrow; A Troubled Heart Gu Zhiqi nodded, taking steps toward the stairwell.
After a few steps, she turned back to look at Gu ngyang, “I’m leaving tomorrow.”
Listening to Gu Zhiqi’s words, Gu ngyang felt a slight reluctance, but he knew that the girl had taken leave to co here, “Heading back to Hai City?
Have you bought your plane ticket?
What ti is the flight?
I’ll have the driver take you.”
As he spoke, Gu ngyang turned to walk towards the coffee table to get his phone.
“Not going back to Hai City.
I’ve bought the ticket, soone will pick up.” Gu ngyang bombarded her with questions, and Gu Zhiqi answered them one by one.
Hearing Gu Zhiqi’s response, Gu ngyang paused briefly before he could respond, then asked the question he cared about the most, “Not going back to Hai City?
Where to then?”
“The capital, to see a patient,” Gu Zhiqi said succinctly, offering a brief explanation.
Just like the news about the group including Su Yunling was shared, the Gu Family’s news was almost always shared as well.
If she said today she was going back to Hai City but didn’t show up there tomorrow, Father Gu and Mother Gu would probably start a relentless barrage of calls again.
Listening to Gu Zhiqi’s response, Gu ngyang fell silent, and after a few seconds, he asked, “Going alone?
Not taking Gu Huaijin?”
“With a friend.”
On hearing this, Gu ngyang felt a mix of schadenfreude and lancholy.
The schadenfreude was because the little girl wouldn’t be bringing that fellow Gu Huaijin along.
You know, in the past, whenever the little girl was seeing a patient, Gu Huaijin was always by her side.
The lancholy was because it seed like the little girl had grown up.
At that mont, Gu ngyang couldn’t help but let his thoughts wander.
Where had Xiao Qi gone during the two years her soul had been exchanged?
What kind of life had she led?
How was it that she seed to have grown up so much in just two years?
Two years…
Two years was actually quite a long ti.
“You should get to bed early too,” Gu Zhiqi said, seeing Gu ngyang zoning out, brought him back to reality.
Upon hearing her, Gu ngyang ca back to his senses, but still seed sowhat distracted as he smiled at Gu Zhiqi, “Got it, you go to sleep first.”
Gu Zhiqi nodded her head and went upstairs.

The next day, at nine o’clock, a car stopped outside Gu ngyang’s villa.
The car had just stopped when Gu Zhiqi appeared at the villa’s door.
“Gu Xiaoxi!” Tang Yichen, sitting in the passenger seat, rolled down the window and waved to Gu Zhiqi.
Gu Zhiqi gave a slight nod to Tang Yichen and opened the car door to get into the back seat.
Ever since she saw Gu Zhiqi, Su Yunling’s gaze rested on her unwaveringly.
After Gu Zhiqi settled in, the car started, and Su Yunling took out a food container from the storage ring and handed it to Gu Zhiqi.
Seeing the food container suddenly before her, Gu Zhiqi turned her head towards Su Yunling.
“Breakfast,” Su Yunling said softly, lifting the container slightly, then added, “I made it.”
Hearing this, Gu Zhiqi’s eyes lit up with sparkle, her brows and eyes curving gently, looking at Su Yunling with an adorably soft gaze, “Thank you, brother.”
Then, she raised her hand to receive the food container from Su Yunling’s hand.
As the food container was taken, Su Yunling did not imdiately withdraw his hand.
His hand holding the container paused montarily before he leisurely drew it back.
With his gaze slightly lowered, his fingers caressed the ring delicately, his heart in slight turmoil.
Because of the word ‘brother’ from Gu Zhiqi, Su Yunling’s heart, which had just cald down, was once again stirred.
Before, he certainly enjoyed hearing the child call him brother, but it was never like it was today.
But just now…
“Hey, Gu Xiaoxi, have you been to the capital before?” Tang Yichen, seated in the passenger seat, suddenly turned around and asked Gu Zhiqi.
