I took a sip, and the rich aroma of the tea lingered around my nose.
Faced with such fine tea, Qin Yu simply held the cup without any intention of tasting it.
His handsome brows were furrowed, and his face showed hesitation and confusion.
After some internal struggle, he finally mustered up his courage and said, "Zhi Nan."
Ji Zhinan looked up at him.
"I'm sorry," he said.
Once you take the first step, the rest is much easier.
“That day I promised you I would take good care of the old man, but because of my own problems, I left the hospital without permission, giving the Ji family an opportunity to take advantage of me…”
So that's what it was about.
Ji Zhinan smiled and said, "Dr. Qin, you haven't wronged me in any way. On the contrary, I owe you a thank you."
"Thank you for doing everything you could to save my grandfather."
The old man was on the verge of death. During those hours that felt like an eternity, he stepped into the realm of death countless times. It was Qin Yu and the doctors who brought him back from the brink of death time and time again.
If Qin Yu hadn't made that call to her, she probably would never have seen the old man again.
Qin Yu helped her a lot.
"Dr. Qin, thank you."
"..." Qin Yu was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Yi Bei and I have been good brothers for many years. This is what I should do."
"How is Grandpa Qin? Is he feeling any better?" Ji Zhinan asked with concern.
"It's nothing serious, you'll be fine after a few days of rest."
Suddenly remembering something, Qin Yu said gently, "I have already sent your grandfather's medical record to my parents. They are preparing to return to China soon to take over the case themselves."
Upon hearing this, Ji Zhinan's eyes lit up: "Really?"
Qin Yu's parents are among the best in the medical field; with them around, the chances of his grandfather waking up are greatly increased.
"yes."
At this moment, the maid came over with a phone and respectfully said to Ji Zhinan, "Miss Ji, it's Madam on the phone."
"Madam?" Ji Zhinan immediately realized what was happening and took the phone: "Auntie."
"Nan Nan~~" came Madam Gu's cheerful voice from the other end of the line, indicating that she was in a good mood.
“I’m here,” Ji Zhinan said obediently.
"how are things?"
"fine."
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Madam Gu got straight to the point: "The New Year is almost here, when are you and Yi Bei coming to Y Country?"
New Year... Ji Zhinan was taken aback.
Mrs. Ji was probably referring to Christmas.
Unlike China, Christmas is their New Year in Country Y.
"What did Gu Yibei say?" Ji Zhinan asked.
When this was mentioned, Madam Gu seemed to have encountered a very difficult problem, and she had a terrible headache: "I called and asked, and that brat said he's too busy in the capital and won't be coming back."
"As the heir of the Gu family, how could he not come back at such an important time? If outsiders find out, who knows what they will say."
Ji Zhinan hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Then I'll talk to him."
Madam Gu, who had been feeling down, immediately became excited: "Alright, you come too. Now that you and Yi Bei are together, it's time to formally meet Yi Bei's father and other family members."
"good."
Seeing that she had hung up the phone, Qin Yu asked with a smile, "Mrs. Gu?"
“Yes.” Ji Zhinan nodded: “She wants me and Gu Yibei to go to Y country for the New Year.”
"I didn't expect Mrs. Gu to like you so much."
In Qin Yu's memory, Madam Gu was a true noblewoman. Every movement was elegant, every detail was exquisite, and every smile and frown exuded elegance, just like a person who had stepped out of a painting.
