Chapter 50
At this moment, Gu Cheng was even more embarrassed than before. He was pressed to the ground. His face was dirty to begin with, and now it was swollen. One could barely see the outline of his facial features. His four hands and feet were all tightly restrained, and he looked like a desperate turtle that had turned over its shell.
Fortunately, Tian Xiao could still recognize people.
This time, his lifeline really came. He struggled violently and complained to Tian Xiao.
Tian Xiao saw this and her face turned pale with distress. She rushed forward and grabbed the security guard's arm and shouted, "Let go of Ah Cheng! Why are you doing this to him? Let go!!!"
The two security guards looked at Xie Lingxu and only let go after getting his approval.
The force on his body suddenly released, and Gu Cheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. He lay on the ground and gasped for a few times, then tried to stand up with his hands.
Before he could use any strength, the place on his shoulder where the security guard had injured him was hit a second time, and Gu Cheng's face twisted in pain for a few moments.
"Acheng? Acheng! Acheng, what's wrong with you, Acheng?!!"
Tian Xiao, who caused all this, was completely unaware. Seeing that his expression was not right, she gripped his shoulders even harder and shook him back and forth several times.
It hurts so much that I don't react.
“…”
Seeing that the man was about to faint, the people next to him kindly reminded him, "Why don't you let go first?"
Who knew that when these words came out, Tian Xiao seemed to be stimulated by something, her expression changed instantly, and she protected Gu Cheng behind her, "What are you thinking! I tell you, with me here, you can't do anything to Ah Cheng!"
"If you want to harm Ah Cheng, you must step over my dead body first!"
The man pointed at himself in shock, his expression both innocent and aggrieved.
I swear to God, this time he is really doing this for the good of the injured.
Tian Xiao protected Gu Cheng and looked at the people in the room warily. At first glance, this situation gave the impression of a pair of star-crossed lovers who remained together despite the pressure of evil forces.
Su Yin looked at this scene thoughtfully and asked Xie Lingxu in a low voice: "Is she sick?"
"Um."
She sighed and said, "Is this the magic of love?"
Xie Lingxu: "..."
He turned his head and saw a mischievous look on her face as expected.
At first glance, I know what he is thinking.
Su Yin noticed his gaze, raised her head, smiled obediently, and a hint of cunning light was revealed in her crooked eyes.
Perhaps it was some idea about him again. Xie Lingxu lowered his eyelashes and raised the corners of his lips slightly.
Let's wait and see.
During the few moments of their glances, Gu Qi'an's gaze shifted back and forth between Gu Cheng and Tian Xiao. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, he asked Gu Cheng, "So you came here for her? Is she also the one behind the scenes in the courtyard?"
Gu Cheng took a few deep breaths, suppressed the chaotic emotions in his heart, and responded weakly, "Yeah."
Gu Qian'an curled his lips in disappointment and muttered softly: "What's there to be ashamed of?"
It's like there's a spy in the sanatorium.
It was all in vain.
Tian Xiao interrupted urgently, "I told him not to tell. My medical staff are all spies for my family. Once they know he's here, they will definitely tell my parents and force him to be sent away again."
She had just used the excuse of going to see the young sect leader to shake off the group of people and sneak here, but she didn't expect to be recognized by other employees of the sanatorium, and in the end she caused a big commotion.
Gu Qian'an looked at her, blinked, and stopped talking.
Xie Lingxu looked around and gave a look to several employees in the room. Except for the one who was recording the interrogation, everyone else went out and considerately closed the door.
Almost all the people left in the room were acquaintances, and there was no risk of being discovered by medical staff if the door was closed. Tian Xiao's originally tense body relaxed slightly.
Xie Lingxu asked at the right moment: "How did you contact him?"
Tian Xiao hesitated and did not answer immediately.
The remaining employee had been observing her demeanor and immediately added, "Don't worry, this isn't about accountability. It's just an inspection of the nursing home's relevant measures."
"Yes...Xiao Zhang." Tian Xiao pursed her lips, feeling a little embarrassed.
"I used Xiao Zhang's phone to contact Ah Cheng before."
The man paused while recording. From the beginning, the development of the whole situation was completely beyond his expectations.
It's like a wild horse running away, not knowing where to go.
For example, he simply could not understand how the patients in Hospital No. 4 could contact the outside world through the mobile phone of the attending physician in Hospital No. 1, which was known for its closedness and caution.
It was that time!
Gu Qian'an remembered the time when he and Tian Xiao helped the young sect leader to hold Xiao Zhang back, making it easier for the young sect leader to sneak into Courtyard No. 1.
He was concentrating on helping the young master with his career, but he didn't expect that Zhiyin was secretly having an affair with another man behind his back!
Although he didn't understand the specific operation, the man didn't ask any questions. After all, he was just a recorder.
If the emperor is not anxious, why should the eunuch be anxious?
He then asked Xiang Gucheng: "Then how did you come up with the idea of sneaking in on a cargo ship?"
Gu Cheng glanced at Tian Xiao. Although he didn't say anything, his words were very instructive.
Facing everyone's gaze, the latter stammered, "I told him..."
The man's attitude towards Tian Xiao, a patient at the sanatorium, was a little better. "How did you come up with this idea?"
"I've seen your ship before. When I was at home, I overheard my brother talking about the Xie family port. I made a rough calculation and figured it out..." The more Tian Xiao spoke, the lower her voice became and the lower she buried her head.
The man probably understood the situation and asked Gu Cheng, "Then how did you get on the boat?"
Tian Xiao couldn't answer this question for him. Gu Cheng avoided his gaze and said reluctantly, "I bribed a loader."
The man frowned, nodded to Xie Lingxu, and then went out to deal with the incident.
This time someone was able to bribe someone to sneak in, next time he might be able to bribe someone to poison the food. He has to screen the people again.
This time, there were really only acquaintances left in the room.
Tian Xiao's eyes were red. She helped Gu Cheng to stand up slowly and wiped the dirt off his face with her clean sleeves. As she wiped, tears fell again.
"Acheng, you have suffered."
"Little fool, why are you crying?" Gu Cheng held one of her hands and wiped away her tears affectionately.
"Meeting you makes it all worth it."
Ignoring the others present, Tian Xiao was moved and threw herself into his arms, "Wow, wow, wow, Cheng."
Gu Cheng patted her back to comfort her, "It's okay, it's okay. You've cried like a little kitten."
For some reason, Su Yin felt a pang of pain in her teeth when she saw this scene.
She murmured softly, "Is this also the magic of love?"
In her mind, she unconsciously replaced Tian Xiao and Gu Cheng's faces with hers and Xie Lingxu's. If Xie Lingxu fell in love, he would behave like this...
With that face, he lovingly called her "little fool" and "little cat"...
Alas--
It's an eyesore.
She was so disgusted by her own imagination that she got goosebumps all over her body.
Xie Lingxu didn't know what she was thinking. He just saw her stroking her arm non-stop, thinking she had caught a cold, and asked, "Are you cold? Do you want to go home first?"
The cold voice brought Su Yin back from her increasingly bizarre imagination. The man in front of her had no expression on his face as usual, and his tone of voice was normal, without that weird, sweet tone that was cloying.
Su Yin took a long breath, cleared those unbearable images from her mind, and then shook her head at Xie Lingxu.
She interrupted the couple who were sharing their innermost feelings and asked Tian Xiao, "Is this the reason for your unusual behavior these days?"
"Um, sorry," Tian Xiao sniffed, half of her eyes peeked out from Gu Cheng's arms, "When I think about seeing him soon, my brain can't process anything else."
Su Yin waved her hand and said, "As long as she's not sick, it's fine."
Tian Xiao snuggled in her lover's arms with a satisfied smile on her face.
She is so happy with her beloved by her side and the best young master opposite her.
This happiness lasted only two seconds before I heard the dean's devilish whisper.
"It's getting late. The patient should go back and rest."
Xie Lingxu played the villain who broke up the couple with an expressionless face. "This time it was the hospital's negligence. I won't hold you responsible. Since you've already met, I'll arrange for someone to take you back."
"No!!!" Tian Xiao screamed.
"We finally got reunited, don't send him back!!!"
The sound was so sharp and loud that it startled Gu Qian'an who was daydreaming.
He moved closer to Su Yin and asked, "What's going on?"
"The star-crossed lovers reunite after a long separation, but the cold-faced dean separates them." Su Yin joked.
"Wow"
Gu Qian'an was amused by her words, but considering his friend's feelings, he held back his laughter.
The parties involved didn't pay attention to their little actions.
Tian Xiao completely came out of Gu Cheng's arms, and the tears that had just stopped flowing began to flow again. "Director, please, let Ah Cheng stay in the sanatorium for a while. We haven't seen each other for a long time."
Faced with her tearful pleading, Xie Lingxu's expression remained unchanged as he replied in a businesslike manner, "According to your guardian's request and your condition, the hospital has no right to keep the source of the disease with you."
"I'm not sick, they think I'm sick!" Tian Xiao screamed.
Knowing that his argument wouldn't make sense, she turned to Su Yin and pleaded, "Young Sect Master, please, let Ah Cheng stay."
Asking Xie Lingxu for help was useless, and asking her for help was even more useless. Su Yin spread her hands helplessly. This was not her territory, and it was not easy for her to interfere in matters related to the contract between the family and the nursing home.
but……
She looked at Gu Cheng who was silent, "What about you?"
Gu Cheng didn't expect her to ask this question suddenly, and looked confused. "What about me?"
Su Yin raised an eyebrow, "You don't want to express your opinion?"
Gu Cheng reacted for two seconds and nodded hurriedly, "Xiaoxiao, I want to stay and be with you."
"Mr. Dean, please allow me to stay and take care of Xiaoxiao!"
"We have a professional medical team here, and you don't need to take care of us." Xie Lingxu treated everyone equally and without mercy.
"How can medical staff compare with Ah Cheng!" Tian Xiao couldn't help but retort. After retorting, he thought that he was the one who could decide whether Gu Cheng stayed or left, and he became angry and anxious.
In a panic, she wiped her tears and suddenly said, "Dean, I'm kneeling down to beg you, okay?"
As he said that, Tian Xiao really knelt down, his knees pressing firmly against the concrete floor. His back, which had never been bent due to his etiquette upbringing since childhood, crawled on the ground with his forehead touching the ground.
This situation was extremely familiar. Su Yin seemed to have returned to the first time she met Tian Xiao. She knelt down like this at that time.
To borrow her cell phone to contact Gu Cheng.
Xie Lingxu frowned and moved sideways to avoid the kneeling.
"Get up." His face turned completely cold. "You can kneel to heaven and earth, and worship your parents, but you should never kneel to me for a man."
Gu Qian'an also advised, "Zhiyin, please get up quickly. This is useless. The dean hates people kneeling to him."
Tian Xiao couldn't get up and said stubbornly, "If you don't agree, I won't get up."
Su Yin sighed softly and glanced at the man standing next to her, as if puzzled and sighing, "Is it worth it?"
Tian Xiao responded with an extremely firm voice, "It's worth it!"
“…”
Su Yin sighed again and beckoned to Xie Lingxu. The latter paused, bent down obediently and put his ear close.
"The person who tied the bell must untie it. Keep it and see what it looks like. If it's a cancer, you can take the opportunity to remove it."
Afraid that he wouldn't agree, she added, "Given Tian Xiao's current state, if you want to send her out, you'll probably have to knock her unconscious, and she'll continue to make trouble when she wakes up."
They have been kneeling for so long that they can’t get up. If we really separate them, who knows what will happen.
Xie Lingxu closed his eyes and retreated a little under Su Yin's gaze. "No matter how you want to keep him, as long as he shows his face, the people around you will definitely notice."
Tian Xiao looked up in surprise and gave Su Yin a look of gratitude.
"There must be a way. The sanatorium is so big, it's just a matter of hiding one person..."
Her mind raced.
During this gap, Su Yin and Gu Qian'an stepped forward at the same time, both wanting to help her up.
Tian Xiao didn't respond and broke free from Su Yin's grip, "It's okay, Young Master. Wait until you come up with a solution before getting up."
She was afraid that the dean would go back on his word.
Su Yin: “…”
Seeing this, Gu Qian'an retracted his half-extended hand and scratched his head instead.
He felt that since that man appeared, Zhiyin seemed like a different person.
During this time, Tian Xiao came up with a solution. "The sanatorium is so big. I can tell the medical staff arranged by my family to stay in Courtyard No. 4 and not let them wander around."
"Medical staff are living beings with long legs, and the person you want to hide is also a living being with long legs. You can't avoid meeting them by not wandering around."
Xie Lingxu stated the facts indifferently, "Or are you planning to stay in the hospital and watch over those medical staff, preventing them from having a chance to meet?"
"No!"
"We can meet somewhere else..." Tian Xiao was a little embarrassed about what to say next. She quickly glanced at Su Yin and whispered, "For example... Courtyard No. 3."
Only when she goes to Yard No. 3 will the medical staff around her not follow her.
