The elevator quickly arrived at the 16th floor. Pei Sui was holding a bouquet of two white lilies, three pink carnations and eucalyptus leaves.
When I walked into the ward, Gu Ci's mother and sister Gu Qinglian were there.
Mother Gu was the first to see him. She was stunned for a moment, as if she had thought of something. She frowned, but quickly calmed down.
Then he smiled and stood up to greet her, saying softly, "A Sui is here, isn't this a coincidence? I was just talking to Qing Lian, wondering when you would come to see A Ci, A Ci has been looking forward to your visit these past two days."
Gu Qinglian was still thinking about the last time he deliberately lost face for that vixen Meng Sheng, so she turned a cold face and didn't greet him.
But Pei Sui still greeted them politely, "Aunt Liu, Sister Qinglian."
He ignored what Gu's mother emphasized, "Aci is also waiting for you."
After Gu Ci returned to China, he visited Gu's home twice, and Gu's mother tried to reunite him and Gu Ci, consciously or unconsciously.
Gu Qinglian found the words "Sister Qinglian" very irritating and couldn't help but sneer, "Oh, you're not calling me Second Miss Gu today? Wasn't it quite smooth last time?"
Pei Sui looked at her calmly, his expression unchanged.
There was no embarrassment or discomfort at all.
What he said last time was actually very polite.
Even more unpleasant and vicious words were not said out loud because she was a member of the Gu family.
"What are you doing? Ah Sui is here to see Ah Ci, why are you making trouble?"
Mrs. Gu scolded Gu Qinglan angrily and glared at her as a warning.
Then she looked at Pei Sui with a dignified smile, "A Sui, don't bother with Qing Lan, she just has a bad temper, she doesn't mean any harm.
It just so happened that Zhiyuan had arranged an apartment for us to live in in the south of the city temporarily. After all, it was a bit far to go back to the west of the city and not very convenient.
We are just about to go over and take a look at the house. We will come back later. You can go in and talk to Aci first.
She seems to be hit hard by this outbreak, and she is a little depressed. We have advised her a lot, but we are afraid that she will not listen. She will definitely listen to you. "
After saying that, he pulled Gu Qinglan, who was angry and reluctant, out of the ward.
After walking a distance, Gu Qinglian shook off her hand and got angry, "Mom, he said that to me the other day, you..."
"Shut up!"
Madam Gu scolded her again, glaring at her sternly, "Why? Now that you're getting older, your stupid temper is getting worse and worse?"
"Do you still want to make enemies with the Pei family because of such a small matter? If you don't let him catch you, will he lose face and embarrass you?
Ah Sui is not the kind of unreasonable person. When you want to ridicule him or mock him, just think of Ah Ci! This is a rare opportunity, do you have to ruin it for Ah Ci?"
Gu Qinglian's heart stagnated, and the anger in his chest was instantly blocked inside, and he couldn't vent it out no matter what.
She gritted her teeth and said angrily, "It's still that vixen Meng Sheng!"
"Okay, shut up."
Mother Gu was impatient again, and poked her forehead in frustration, "I've told you so many times to be careful with your words and actions, but you didn't listen to a single word? Do you think the Meng family is a soft persimmon?
The Meng family's status in the literary world is not as high as our Gu family's, but their academic attainments are higher than ours. What's more, their generation has produced a great diplomat.
Even if our Gu family has deep roots, what can we gain from fighting business and politics? "
Gu Qinglian felt humiliated, and still looked somewhat unconvinced. However, since a doctor and a nurse were passing by, she could not refute her mother's words.
In the ward suite, Pei Sui knocked on the door with his fingers.
When the "knock knock knock" sound fell, Gu Ci's gentle voice came from inside, "Come in."
The door was pushed open, and a faint smell of disinfectant and medicine wafted in, but was covered by a fresh and elegant scent of lily of the valley.
The three smells blended together are not abrupt or unpleasant.
But Pei Sui still wrinkled his nose slightly, and Tai Ruo walked in naturally.
Instead of closing the door, he left it open.
"A Sui."
Gu Ci heard footsteps, looked up and smiled at him.
This smile on that pale face without any blood was like a red plum blossom blooming in the snow.
It looks great.
But when she saw the bouquet of flowers in his hand, she was still stunned for a moment.
The universal language of white lilies is recovery and blessing, while carnations represent peace and health.
This is the most common bouquet of flowers to give to friends.
friend……
She actually likes sunflowers more and has always felt that she is like a sunflower.
Because sunflowers represent hope and sunshine, as well as resilience and optimism, loyalty and companionship.
Pei Sui should know this.
After all, they were childhood sweethearts and had known each other for many years. He had given her sunflowers more than once before.
It was because he said that he thought sunflowers were suitable for her that she fell in love with sunflowers.
After being stunned for a moment, she came to her senses and reached out to take the bouquet.
Gently stroking the petals of the lily, he smiled and said, "It turns out that lilies are so beautiful. Thank you, Asui, for your trouble."
Pei Sui did not respond to her words, but asked casually, "How have you been these days?"
Gu Ci wanted to put the bouquet on the counter, but because she was weak and her arms were powerless, it was very difficult.
Finally, he had to give up, sighed helplessly, and said to Pei Sui with a smile, "A Sui, can you help me put it down?"
There was a hint of coquettishness in her tone that was not very obvious.
Pei Sui heard it.
He frowned, but did not refuse the request which was easy to do.
He took the top of the bouquet with one hand and placed it on the table easily.
Gu Ci's hands held the flowers in the air for two seconds before she slowly retracted them. A gentle smile still hung on her pale yet beautiful face.
In answer to his previous question, "I feel a little better than before, but it's been more than 20 years, I've gotten used to it, and it's a miracle that I can still live to this day."
Her calmness at this moment was completely different from the anxiety she had when she was a few years older or a teenager.
Pei Sui pursed his lips, without much comfort, and said calmly, "Get treatment well. Deqing Hospital has made great progress in the clinical research value of heart disease.
It is also the first hospital in Beijing to establish the [Dynamic Prediction Algorithm for Cardiac Fibrosis].
"Yeah. I know. I've been here for more than 20 years. I can't just give up now. Even if not for myself, I have to do it for my parents, my brother and my sister, and..."
Gu Ci spoke in a gentle tone, her voice still containing a smile. Although she was a little weak, her gentle and clear eyes were filled with determination.
As she spoke, she subconsciously looked up at him.
His expression was as cold and indifferent as ever, and it was impossible to tell any emotion from him.
She had to swallow the rest of her words.
