C25 (1/2)
Qiao Yining was listening attentively to the conversation when he saw Jane's head tilt. He hastily used his hand to catch the little head.
He laughed out loud and muttered, ”How can there be such a cute girl? Telling a story to someone would only mean that she fell asleep.”
He stood up and held Jane in his arms, ready to walk her back to the ward.
When Gu Chen returned to the ward, he found it empty. No one knew where he had gone.
He could only sit in the ward. If he wasn't well yet, it was impossible for him to go too far, so when he thought about it, he felt at ease.
Qiao Yunning brought Jane back to her room and saw Gu Chen sitting there with a smile on his face. ”The young lady was very happy to see me, so she chatted a lot with me. Now, she's rather sleepy. Unknowingly falling asleep in my embrace, I sent her back.”
This explanation was better not to explain. Gu Chen looked at Qiao Yifeng, who was carrying Jane with an unfriendly expression on his face. Now, he hated Qiao Yifan even more.
”Sorry for the trouble.”
He coldly replied, then directly took over the concoction from Qiao Yining.
However, the other party did not let go. He raised his eyebrows and said, ”Why are you still holding onto me and you're still not willing to let go?”
”That's not it. It's just that if you suddenly switch hands like that, it's easy to wake her up.”
Qiao Yining was very considerate. He had been sick to begin with, so it wasn't bad to be able to sleep well for a while.
”That shouldn't be necessary. It's better to lie in the arms of your own husband than in the arms of a stranger.”
Gu Chen received the letter forcefully.
Her movements were stiff, but at first, it was as if she had been sleeping soundly, not even waking her up from her sleep. However, her brows knitted slightly. When she smelled a familiar scent, she even rubbed against Gu Chen's chest.
He did not know what a dangerous woman was!
Did he really think it was Qiao Yining just because of this? His face was so dark that it seemed as if ink could drip out of it.
”When was she married? Even if you are my secret lover, you will still scare my girl if you make too much of a move. ”
Qiao Yanning stared at Gu Chen with a cold gaze. He knew that he was a doctor, and it would be bad if he got into conflict with someone here.
He turned around and prepared to leave. At the very least, what he had said just now was enough to make Gu Chen suffer.
Gu Chen lowered his head, wanting to pinch Jane's face when he saw that she was sleeping soundly. Only then was he able to vent the anger in his heart.
When his hand landed on a person's face, he sighed and moved gently.
When she woke up, Jane rubbed her eyes.
A man was staring at her. ”Where did you run off to?”
”I …” His thoughts had yet to return to his head, so it was obvious that his mind had forgotten about anything.
Gu Chen moved closer, his gaze falling onto Jian Chen's eyes. ”Do you know how worrying it is to run around without leaving a single sentence behind?”
”I didn't run around. I went out to bask in the sun and met Doctor Qiao.”
Sensing that Gu Chen's tone was off, he hurriedly denied it. His eyes sparkled, and even if his face had lost all color, it would not have been able to obstruct his youthful beauty.
”Whether it is intentional or not, you should be clear in your heart.”
The other party's voice turned icy, and the pale ward turned cold once more.
”What do you mean …”
”You should know what I mean the best!”
Gu Chen raised his head and lifted Jane's chin, forcing her to meet his gaze. Her chin was pinched so hard that it hurt. Tears welled up in her eyes.
”Are you sick? Perhaps … I really don't agree with you. After all, I don't understand what you mean. ”
Her voice was choked with sobs, and the tears in her eyes made Gu Chen think she was just putting on an act.
Could it be that her heart and mind were linked? He deserved to be an evil person?
”Yes!” ”It's not suitable for us to be together. You are most suited to be with others …”
At first, Jane did not understand Gu Chen's sarcastic tone, but the other party did not bother explaining any further and turned to leave.
It left Jane unable to touch her head at all.
He said that he would buy her food, but he didn't see where it was, so he could just leave angrily. What about her?
I still have to sleep in this ward. Rumor has it that there are a lot of lonely ghosts in the hospital.
Unable to sleep, Jane crawled out of bed, found the chart and a pen, and began to paint.
The lights in the ward flickered.
”Why aren't you back yet …” Do you really want to starve me to death?! ”
Jane complained at first, but the ward was still empty, so she didn't talk to herself.
He got up and prepared to go find something to eat. It was already midnight. In the hospital, there was not a single soul in the corridor.
Terrifying silence.
Her pulse under her skin was beating faster and faster. She wanted to leave this place faster.
However, he met a tall silhouette in the corridor. The silhouette of that figure was none other than Gu Chen.
she cried. ”You're finally back! ”Have you brought anything to eat? I'm very hungry.”
He slowed down as he spoke, but when he raised his head, Gu Chen had already turned into another corridor.
”What are you doing!”
As he ran over, all that could be seen was Gu Chen's back as he descended the stairs.
Below was the underground storage area.
Was he shy to see her and quickly leave?
”I can't even run anymore …”
However, the other side still did not turn back. Jane was squatting on the ground, gasping for breath.
The hand that had been cold reached out to her.
”Ugh …”
