Chapter 115 Please Leave After a While
At noon, Gu Moyang carefully prepared a lot of dishes.
Jiang Jibai saw him busy in the kitchen at around ten o'clock.
This scene always reminds her of the past, the time she spent with him in the rented house.
She shook her head and continued to draw her draft.
"Let's eat." Gu Moyang served all the food.
Golden and crispy mustard shrimp balls, crispy duck with glistening taro paste, tender and fragrant lotus root, yam and pork rib soup, as well as a plate of stir-fried seasonal vegetables and mouth-watering chicken.
She definitely couldn't cook such a complicated dish herself.
Jiang Jibai had breakfast late and was not very hungry now.
These dishes look tempting though.
As they were eating, Jiang Jibai asked, "Don't you have to go to work? It seems like you have a lot of free time every day."
Gu Moyang helped her serve the soup and set it aside to cool.
"Now I don't have to take care of many things in the company, so I have plenty of time to spend with you."
Jiang Jibai fiddled with the spoon and said, "Who needs you to accompany them every day? Don't be so self-indulgent."
"You're right, I just want to be with you every day. I'm just being sentimental."
“…”
Gu Moyang is becoming more and more shameless.
After dinner, Wu Qian came over.
He came to help Gu Moyang deliver some things.
He glanced at the dishes and soup on the table and smiled.
The boss is happy again.
Before I could say anything, the door in front of me was slammed shut.
Jiang Jibai came out of the bedroom and saw him holding some clothes.
There was joy and satisfaction on his handsome face.
She clutched the sketch in her arms and took a deep breath.
"Thank you for taking care of me here last night, but I'm sorry... can you leave?"
He had indeed helped her a lot in the past two days, and Jiang Jibai knew that he was repaying kindness with ingratitude.
But she couldn't accept this with peace of mind.
There is no way I can accept his meticulous care.
There is no way to accept his unconditional giving.
Or rather, fear.
Gu Moyang's face froze, then turned into a look of loss.
"I'm already looking for a house. I'll move out as soon as I find one. I'll pay you the market daily rent for your stay these days."
The more Jiang Jibai spoke, the more broken Gu Moyang's eyes became.
"Jiang Nuannuan, does it have to be like this?"
Jiang Jibai's delicate, fair face was filled with resistance: "What is our relationship? We have no relationship at all, so why do we have to live together in such an inappropriate way?"
"So please leave right away."
Gu Moyang stood there for a long time without moving, holding tightly the handbag containing the clothes that Wu Qian had just handed over.
"I can leave, but don't worry about the house. Just live here peacefully. If you feel uncomfortable, you can pay the rent. Moving here and there is too much trouble, and it will be painful for you."
"Okay." Jiang Jibai entered the bedroom and closed the door again.
Left alone in the empty bedroom, Gu Moyang loosened his clenched fingers and turned around to pack his things.
He knew that she still couldn't accept him.
Jiang Jibai didn't know when he left.
When she came out of the bedroom again, Gu Moyang was gone.
He left a note on the coffee table in the living room.
"I've put any leftover lunch in the refrigerator. I cut some fruit for you and put it in the refrigerator, too. Remember to eat it. I also made some lemon chicken feet, which are also in the refrigerator, but don't rush. They'll get better the longer they sit. Remember to take your medicine on time. I've packaged it for you and put it in the drawer of the coffee table. If you have anything, be sure to tell me. I love you more than anything in the world."
Jiang Jibai clenched the piece of paper tightly, and the force flowed from his fingers to his heart.
After squeezing it for a moment, she released it and threw it into the trash can.
--
A few days passed.
Jiang Jibai suddenly received a call while on his way to find a part-time job.
"Nuannuan, please come to the hospital. Your father is sick."
Jiang Jibai's mind went blank for a moment.
Then I immediately took a taxi to the hospital.
When we arrived at the hospital, Qin Ting and Youyou were both there.
Jiang Qingfu was lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, and Qin Ting was sitting beside him with a sad look on her face.
Youyou was very happy to see her. He ran over, hugged her legs and sweetly called her sister.
"Be good, Youyou."
Jiang Jibai looked anxious, "Aunt Qin, what happened to my dad?"
Qin Ting sighed, "Nuannuan, go ask the doctor. The doctor can explain it more clearly than I can."
Jiang Jibai had a premonition that Jiang Qingfu's condition might not be that simple, so he hurried out of the ward to ask the doctor.
When I walked out of the ward, the sour feeling in my body could no longer be suppressed.
Even if Jiang Qingfu's relationship with her is not close now, he is still her closest blood relative.
She found Jiang Qingfu's attending physician.
"You are the daughter of the patient Jiang Qingfu, right?" said the doctor.
"Yes, I am."
"Your father had a tumor in his brain, which is what we commonly call a brain tumor. Fortunately, it was discovered in time. The tumor itself is not large, but the location of the tumor is quite unusual."
"Your father's tumor is located at the bifurcation of the middle cerebral artery. He requires immediate surgery, and the risks are high. The blood flow in this location has strong shear forces, and the risk of rupture is high. If the surgery is unsuccessful, it may cause extensive brain damage, leaving behind a series of sequelae such as brain herniation, epilepsy, and hemiplegia. I hope you are mentally prepared."
"When is the surgery?"
"The patient will need to be hospitalized for a few days. Once he's better, surgery will be scheduled as soon as possible. Director Wang in our department is the best at this type of surgery, but his surgery schedule is very full. He's booked for the past two weeks, so if we need to have surgery, we'll have to postpone it. If you let him operate on your father, the chances of success will be much greater."
"Okay, thank you, doctor."
Jiang Jibai forgot how he returned to the ward.
I just feel like my mind is in a mess.
How could her father become seriously ill overnight?
"When did you find out?"
"Your father fainted at work this morning and was brought here by a colleague."
"Didn't you ask him to go for a physical examination? He didn't go?"
Qin Ting sighed, "I asked him to go, but he always said he was busy and that it wouldn't be a problem. I'm too lazy to talk to him anymore, but fortunately, it's not too late now that I've discovered it."
"Nuannuan, you stay here with your father. I'll take Youyou home first and make some food for you before I leave. Call me if you need anything."
Qin Ting took Youyou and left first.
Jiang Jibai sat down in front of the hospital bed. Jiang Qingfu, lying on the bed, looked old and haggard.
She tightened her grip on the bag.
After looking for a while, she took out her mobile phone and found the hospital's official account to check the information of Director Wang that the doctor had just mentioned.
After a while, Jiang Qingfu woke up.
He saw that the person accompanying him was his daughter.
"Nuannuan, you're here."
"I should have listened to you and told you to go to the hospital for a physical examination earlier. I'm sorry for making you worry."
He raised his eyelids to look at her, and Jiang Jibai's eyes became sore after hearing what he said.
"Don't think too much, just rest well in the hospital."
Jiang Jibai looked at his dry lips and asked.
"Are you thirsty? Do you want some water?"
Jiang Qingfu nodded.
Jiang Jibai helped him sit up, poured him a glass of warm water from a thermos, and slowly fed it to him.
"Auntie Qin has gone back to cook, and Youyou is doing well, don't worry."
"good."
Jiang Jibai helped him lie down and tucked the quilt in for him.
Jiang Qingfu felt uncomfortable seeing her running around for him.
He knew that he owed her a lot since her mother passed away.
