Gu Youran's heart tightened and he pushed the door open and walked in.
I saw a woman in a bright red dress, with her back to the door, leaning against the sink, crying bitterly. Her trembling shoulders seemed to be carrying endless grievances.
Hearing the door open, the woman's body trembled and she turned her head.
In an instant, their eyes met, and they were both stunned, with astonishment on their faces.
Gu Youran never thought that the down-and-out person in front of him was Leng Ningshuang.
A trace of panic flashed across Leng Ningshuang's eyes, and then her anger was instantly ignited.
She raised her hand and quickly wiped away her tears, straightened her spine, and glared at him: "Gu Youran, are you satisfied now?"
Gu Youran looked puzzled, "Ling Ningshuang, what do you mean?"
She gritted her teeth and said bitterly, "Our Leng family is going bankrupt, and I'm forced to go on a blind date with this...this disgusting man."
As she spoke, she pointed outside the door. "Look, that's that middle-aged man with a big belly and a shiny bald head. He's divorced, has two children, and is a philanderer. My life is ruined!"
No time to respond.
Leng Ningshuang roared again, "It's all Shi Heng's fault. He used all means in the business world and frantically bought up Leng family shares, forcing me to this point."
Gu Youran suddenly realized what was going on. He looked at her with cold eyes, "Ling Ningshuang, this is the capital, where the law of the jungle prevails."
"Shi Heng's success today is due to his strategy and courage. Now that your company is in trouble, why don't you reflect on your own business problems first?"
"Instead of crying and complaining here, why don't you think about how to save yourself? It's useless to just blame others."
After saying that, Gu Youran walked sideways around Leng Ningshuang and walked straight out.
As soon as I stepped out of the bathroom door.
Gu Youran saw Shi Heng standing there with an anxious look on his face.
It turned out that Shi Heng saw that she had been in the bathroom for a long time and was worried, so he rushed over.
I happened to overhear Gu Youran's last words.
Shi Heng never thought that Gu Youran would say something so insightful and considerate to him in the end.
His eyes were slightly red, and he took a step forward and hugged Gu Youran tightly in his arms, as if he wanted to rub her into his bones and blood.
"Youbao, I..." Shi Heng's voice trembled slightly, all the words were stuck in his throat, and he didn't know where to start.
When he heard those words just now, his heart was in his throat, fearing that Gu Youran would think that he was too cruel and ruthless in his business methods.
After all, a big part of the reason why he did this was to protect Gu Youran and prevent Leng Ningshuang from provoking him again.
Gu Youran leaned in his arms, listening to his pounding heartbeat, and gently soothed him, "Ah Heng, I understand. Everything you did was to stop me from being wronged. I wouldn't be wrong about you."
Shi Heng hugged her tighter, resting his chin lightly on the top of her head, and murmured, "It is my greatest luck in this life to have such trust from you. In the years to come, no matter the wind and rain, we will go through it hand in hand."
…
In the early morning, the warm sunlight struggled to penetrate the thin clouds and shone on the hospital building.
Gu Youran, wearing a white coat, followed Director Liu closely and started a new day of study.
As she walked, her eyes involuntarily drifted to the end of the corridor.
There, a VIP ward looked particularly mysterious. The two bodyguards standing at the door were tall and had stern expressions, like two majestic door gods. They scared passers-by so much that they didn't dare to breathe and left in a hurry.
Gu Youran couldn't help but take a few more glances. Director Liu, who was standing beside her, noticed her little movement, frowned slightly, and whispered, "Xiao Gu, there's a little boy in that ward who has an extremely rare neurological disease."
After a pause, he continued, "He's been living here for three months. His father is a powerful figure, known in the underworld as 'Lord Lei'. We can't afford to offend him, so we try to avoid him on weekdays."
Gu Youran's heart skipped a beat, and the image of a gangster with a face full of flesh and sharp eyes instantly appeared in his mind.
He quickly responded, "I understand, Director."
But curiosity is like a kitten, gently scratching my heart.
In the morning, Gu Youran was busy with Director Liu's ward rounds and case checks.
However, the tightly closed VIP ward door and the little boy she had never met behind the door always broke into her thoughts from time to time.
Lunch break.
Gu Youran walked into the hospital garden, wanting to bask in the sun, get some fresh air, and relax her tense nerves.
I found a bench to sit down, and just as I closed my eyes, I heard a low sob.
Gu Youran's heart tightened and he stood up to look in the direction of the sound.
I saw a little boy curled up beside the flowers. He looked to be six or seven years old, skinny, wearing a loose hospital gown, with messy hair, eyes red from crying, and a game console tightly clutched in his hand.
Gu Youran said softly, "Little friend, what's wrong with you?"
The little boy was startled and raised his head, his eyes full of vigilance and alertness, like a wounded little beast forced into a corner.
When he saw Gu Youran's white coat, the hostility in the little boy's eyes faded a little, and he murmured in a tearful voice, "Doctor, I don't want to stay here. I have to get injections and take medicine every day, but this disease can't be cured..."
Gu Youran felt a pang of sadness in her heart. She squatted down beside the little boy and said softly, "Little boy, healing takes time. You have to be strong. By the way, that game console you have in your hand looks quite fun. Can you tell me about it?"
The little boy's eyes lit up and he wiped away his tears. "This is my favorite game, but I'm tired of it. None of the doctors and nurses can beat me. If someone could beat me, maybe I'd feel better and recover faster..."
Gu Youran's heart moved and he was about to speak when suddenly, a middle-aged woman came running hurriedly from a distance.
Seeing Gu Youran, he was stunned at first, then smiled broadly, "Doctor, my young master has caused you trouble again. I will take him back to the ward right away."
It turned out that it was the nanny who came, and she was about to take the little boy away.
But the little boy stubbornly threw his arms and said, "I won't go back unless someone can beat me in the game!"
The nanny looked embarrassed and looked at Gu Youran with pleading eyes.
Gu Youran sighed and looked at the little boy. "If I win, you will cooperate with the treatment, okay?"
The little boy widened his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and nodded heavily.
The two sat on a bench and a fierce game showdown began.
The little boy looked confident at first, his fingers dancing rapidly on the game console, but gradually, his expression changed, his mouth opened wider and wider, and his eyes were full of astonishment.
I didn't expect Gu Youran to be so powerful.
After a few rounds, the little boy was completely defeated, his head hanging low. However, he kept his word and said to Gu Youran, "Doctor, I'll listen to you. I'll go back for treatment. Don't forget, my name is Xiaohu."
The nanny was standing by, her eyes red with excitement, and she kept thanking him.
At this time, a bodyguard in black came over.
