“I’ve arranged everything,” Lin Zhibai replied. “The only thing missing is a bride.”
Gu Fanyan smiled and said, "Then wait two more days. The bride's dress hasn't arrived yet."
Gu's mother ordered two dresses for her, but they are not finished yet.
Lin Zhibai shrugged helplessly. His mother-in-law had already ordered the dress, and he couldn't say no.
"Then don't leave tonight." He wrapped his arms around her slender waist, his hot breath spraying behind her ear.
His clinginess is even greater than before.
“But I have to go,” Gu Fanyan said with a smile. “I have an appointment with someone.”
"Who?" His eyes immediately flashed with murderous intent.
“My mom.” She chuckled.
Lin Zhibai's imposing manner immediately diminished, and his thin lips pressed into a straight line. "Next time, I should explain to your aunt what marriage is all about."
"Oh, what is marriage?" Gu Fanyan asked, her beautiful eyes widening.
Is he trying to say that after marriage she will belong to him?
Lin Zhibai's anger gradually subsided: "At the very least, you should stay by my side at night." As she finished speaking, a hint of grievance flashed in her eyes, as if she had been bullied.
Gu Fanyan was both amused and annoyed. "Don't feel wronged. My mom just messaged me. The dress has arrived, and I'm waiting to go try it on."
“I’ll go with you.” Lin Zhibai immediately stood up.
“You should spend more time on your work,” she said, turning to walk out. “If the dress fits, maybe we can leave tomorrow.”
Finally, he said something that Lin Zhibai wanted to hear.
"Message me when you're done, and I'll come pick you up," he instructed.
Gu Fanyan glanced back at him, raised her slender eyebrows, and agreed.
She arrived at the place she had arranged with her mother, accompanied by a nanny who opened her dress.
Gu Fanyan's first impression was that the dress was too brightly colored.
Moreover, many places were adorned with pearls, crystals, and diamonds by hand.
"What, you don't like it?" Gu's mother asked.
"The dress is very pretty, but the style is a bit too exaggerated." Gu Fanyan prefers simpler things.
“It’s a bit exaggerated, but I’m not suggesting you wear this every day,” Gu’s mother said. “You’re going to have your wedding on a snowy mountain. If you don’t wear something extravagant, how will the photos look?”
Gu Fanyan was taken aback. "Mom, you even thought of this?"
"Of course I have to think about it, you're my only daughter." Gu's mother gave her a reproachful look.
Gu Fanyan hugged her mother's arm and said coquettishly, "Mom, are you disappointed that I'm not having the wedding in the city?"
"What am I disappointed about?" Gu's mother asked.
"I can't let you throw a big party and experience what it's like to be busy."
Gu's mother chuckled, "I'd rather have a peaceful life than be constantly busy and exhaust myself?"
"Mom, stop pretending," Gu Fanyan said with a smile. "When Aunt Lan got married, didn't you always say that you were always asking when you could help me out?"
Aunt Lan was Gu's mother's best friend, and she did indeed put in a lot of effort for Aunt Lan's daughter's wedding.
Although I was a little tired, I was very happy.
Gu's mother smiled and said, "Marriage is between you and Lin Zhibai. As long as you're happy."
There was still a hint of regret in his tone.
She loves her daughter so much that even though preparing for the wedding will keep her busy, she is happy to do it.
"Mom, you should get ready," Gu Fanyan said. "We'll still have a wedding when Lin Zhibai and I come back from Baitou Mountain."
"Really? You and Lin Zhibai have already discussed it?" Gu's mother's eyes showed joy.
“Of course,” Gu Fanyan nodded, “I am, after all, the eldest daughter of the Gu family. How can I not let the whole world know about such a big event as my marriage?”
Mother Gu nodded happily, "Good, good, let the whole world know!"
The nanny smiled along with the mother and daughter, "Miss, there's also this dress, why don't you try it on?"
Gu Fanyan happily walked into the fitting room, changing her clothes while thinking that the wedding her mother had prepared for her would probably be as dazzling and luxurious as this dress.
No matter what, as long as Mom is happy.
Suddenly, she heard a loud "bang" outside, followed by the nanny's surprised shout: "Madam, Madam!"
Gu Fanyan's heart skipped a beat, and she rushed out in her dress, calling out, "Mom!"
Gu's mother fainted on the ground.
"Mom, Mom!" No matter how Gu Fanyan called out, her mother's eyes remained closed, and she did not respond.
The store staff and the driver who was waiting outside immediately rushed in.
Not long after, the ambulance arrived.
The emergency doctor performed a simple examination and immediately concluded: "A blood vessel in the brain is blocked. You need to be taken to the hospital for surgery immediately, or your life will be in danger!"
Gu Fanyan was stunned for a moment, her mind went blank, and she instinctively followed the others and ran outside.
Soon, Gu's father called Gu Fanyan, "Fanyan, tell the ambulance to take your mother to the best hospital in the city."
“Dad…” Gu Fanyan was a little flustered.
"Fan Yan, don't say too much on the phone," Gu's father said calmly. "I still have to arrange things at the hospital. Cheer up."
"Okay." Gu Fanyan took a deep breath.
Upon arrival at the hospital, someone immediately came to help the nurses push Gu's mother into the emergency room.
Gu Fanyan met her father in the corridor of the emergency room. "Dad, I don't know... Mom suddenly fainted."
Mr. Gu nodded. "Let's not talk about that now. There's something very important. Do you know who the best doctor in this city is right now who performs this type of surgery?"
Gu's father's expression made her instantly understand something, "Lin Guangchen?"
Mr. Gu nodded.
"How could that be?" Gu Fanyan didn't understand. "He's so young!"
“Brain surgery is a very delicate procedure,” Mr. Gu said. “Young people lack experience, while older people lack the physical strength and eyesight to keep up.”
"Last week, Lin Guangchen successfully performed a brain surgery that many senior experts had been unable to handle."
Gu Fanyan nodded: "Then let's arrange for Lin Guangchen to perform the surgery on Mom."
Mr. Gu glanced at her, his gaze somewhat complicated: "Fan Yan, your relationship with Lin Guangchen has become a bit strained, hasn't it?"
Gu Fanyan's expression changed slightly. "You've already spoken to Lin Guangchen, but he didn't agree?"
“I can’t get in touch with him,” Gu’s father replied.
Gu Fanyan then realized that things were more complicated than he had imagined.
“We can’t wait for him for now,” Mr. Gu had already come up with a solution. “I’ve invited two specialists, and we’ll have the surgery right away.”
As they were talking, two doctors and several nurses hurried over.
The two doctors were around 50 years old, with graying temples, but they were in excellent spirits and showed no signs of aging.
These must be the two experts my father mentioned, the ones he invited.
"Please!" Mr. Gu said to the two of them.
The two doctors nodded and went into the emergency room.
