Chapter 311 Nurse Suicide
The next day, while Gu Yuehuai was having lunch, he went to the post office and mailed the letter.
"Yue Huai, are you sending a letter to your boyfriend? He has joined the army? How is it going?" Wan Qinglan was eating dumplings with her lunch box in hand, her cheeks stuffed full. She asked while eating, with a curious look on her face.
She only knew that Gu Yuehuai's boyfriend had joined the army, but she was not very clear about the specific circumstances.
"Not bad." Gu Yuehuai didn't say much. He picked up the paintbrush and started painting the ancient poetry full of childlike fun on the drawing paper.
Speaking of this matter, it is a bit like an unintentional achievement.
Liu Qiang was transferred to Zhoulan City. Once she left, there was one less competitor who could make picture books of ancient poems. With almost no effort, this popular job that had been hotly contested for some time fell into her hands.
Wan Qinglan saw that she was unwilling to talk about her boyfriend, so she didn't force it. She glanced at the work at hand and encouraged her, "Yue Huai, you have to work hard. When the work on the ancient poetry picture book is finished, you may get a bonus!"
Gu Yuehuai hummed lightly, and when she looked up, she saw Wan Qinglan hesitating, and her hand holding the paintbrush paused slightly.
During this period, Gu Tinghuai and Bai Mei were in a hot relationship and their relationship progressed by leaps and bounds. She forgot about Wan Qinglan and Yao Meili. In this era, most relationships are lifelong. If she was a step slower, there might not be another chance.
Wan Qinglan bit her lip and said with determination, "Yue Huai, has your elder brother ever... has he ever mentioned me to you? We haven't seen each other for such a long time, has he forgotten me?"
Gu Yuehuai was silent, pondered for a moment, and put down his paintbrush.
Her serious expression made Wan Qinglan suddenly nervous. Her lips trembled slightly and she whispered, "What's wrong? Did something happen? Your expression is scary."
Gu Yuehuai thought about it, considered it, and said slightly implicitly: "Qinglan, my elder brother may be dating someone."
Hearing this, Wan Qinglan's eyes changed, and he stared at Gu Yuehuai intently: "Dating? With whom?"
Although it was a question, she knew very well that besides her, the only other choice was Yao Meili. So, in the end, Brother Gu chose Yao Meili? Was she worse than her? This thought made her throat sore and her shoulders drooped.
Gu Yuehuai pursed her red lips and said, "Qinglan, no one can predict the future of love. The person you like may not necessarily be the right one for you. Sometimes, you can try to look around, and maybe you can find new surprises."
Her words were suggestive, and Huang Binbin, who was listening at the side, blushed.
However, Wan Qinglan obviously didn't pay attention to him. She lowered her head in disappointment and said nothing.
Gu Yuehuai had no intention of acting as a confidant sister and continued with the painting at hand.
Wan Qinglan looked up at her, her heart ached, as if she had been hurt a second time. She twitched her lips and said, "Gu Yuehuai! I'm still sad here, and you didn't even say a few words to comfort me. What should I do if my heart hurts even more?"
Gu Yuehuai didn't even raise his head, and said with a curved lip: "How could it be? Isn't Wan Qinglan made of iron?"
Wan Qinglan was so angry that she was about to speak when she heard a commotion coming from the corridor outside.
She glanced outside. Under normal circumstances, she would have gone out to join in the fun, but she had not yet recovered from the breakup. She closed the lid of the lunch box listlessly and lay on the table, sighing.
Huang Binbin saw that she was unhappy, pursed his lips, got up and went out to inquire about the news.
After a while, Huang Binbin came back. He first took a sip of the hot water on the table, and then said to Wan Qinglan, "Qinglan, our Masses Daily has received another big news story. I heard that reporters have been sent over to take pictures."
Wan Qinglan was in a bad mood. She leaned over the table and tilted her head to look at him: "What big news?"
"I heard that a nurse in the county hospital committed suicide. It was just discovered. The doctor who was making rounds at noon found the nurse hanged in the ward. The police have also gone there. It's a big commotion." Huang Binbin said with a sigh.
Upon hearing this, Wan Qinglan perked up. She straightened up, looking shocked: "A nurse committed suicide?"
The biggest news their Masses Daily received this year was the incident involving the secretary of the Liuzhi Brigade. However, perhaps because the other party had a background, the commune did not allow it to be widely publicized. In the end, they chose to publicize it in a small page in the newspaper.
Today's suicide of a nurse is definitely the biggest and hottest news in Qing'an County before the New Year.
Huang Binbin nodded: "Well, we don't know the specific situation, but a group of people went there."
Wan Qinglan was a little unhappy: "Group One, Group One, everything is Group One. Liu Yizhou relies on himself as the deputy editor-in-chief to assign all the work resources at hand to Group One. When will our Group Three be able to make a breakthrough?"
Talking about work, she temporarily forgot about the sadness of losing love.
While the two were talking, they didn't notice that Gu Yuehuai's face was turning pale.
When the nurse committed suicide, she almost subconsciously thought of Bai Mei.
This is how she died in the county hospital in her previous life. Is she going to repeat the same mistake in this life?
Her brows were furrowed, with an uneasy look in her eyes. Without having time to talk to Wan Qinglan and Huang Binbin, she dropped the drawing board in her hand and ran to the editor-in-chief's office to ask for leave. She had to go to the county hospital in person.
Wan Qinglan was stunned and asked suspiciously: "What's wrong with her?"
Huang Binbin shook his head, equally confused.
Wei Luo was so busy that he was dizzy. When he heard Gu Yuehuai's request for leave, he approved it without asking any questions.
As soon as Gu Yuehuai left the unit, she ran to the county hospital. Her mind kept flashing with the scene of Gu Tinghuai smiling gently at Bai Mei, and then the scene of Gu Tinghuai beating Ren Tianxiang to death and then being shot in her previous life.
The two images kept alternating, giving her a splitting headache, and she could only speed up her pace.
When she ran to the hospital, she found that a cordon had been set up outside the hospital. Police officers were coming in and out of the hospital. There were also many passers-by outside the hospital who were watching the excitement and were all talking about the nurse's suicide.
"What happened? The nurse died? Why?"
"Who knows? The police didn't say, but looking at their expressions, it's definitely not a good thing."
"Nonsense! What a pity! What a big deal! Why would he commit suicide? It's so creepy. Who would dare to come here in the future?"
"Tsk, isn't this ridiculous? People die in the hospital every day and you don't seem scared."
“…”
Gu Yuehuai frowned as he listened to these discussions, but none of them said anything useful.
She pursed her lips and thought for a while, then crossed the cordon and showed the work badge hanging around her neck when the police officer reached out to stop her. She came out in a hurry and didn't even take off her work badge, but it was convenient for her to enter the hospital as a staff member of the Masses Daily.
