Chapter 25: The Wicked Stepmother Who Abandoned the Twins (25)
After finishing her phone call, Wen Wan continued to squat on the sofa playing Jenga on her phone.
"How was my last sentence?"
System: [This is a bit disgusting.]
"You don't know anything. Old men all like this. Look at how he ignored me before, but he'll be all over me in a heartbeat later."
system:【……】
The male lead isn't even thirty yet, so how come he's considered an old man?
—
Assistant Chen knocked on the door, and Wen Wan immediately turned off the mini-game, walked to the door, and took Gu Ci's hand as he entered.
"lady."
"Have you eaten, Assistant Chen? I brought two portions, would you like some?"
Assistant Chen interrupted Madam Chen, "I've already eaten, thank you Madam. I have some things to take care of, so I'll be leaving now."
Didn't he see President Gu's icy expression? If he dares to stay, his year-end bonus is in serious danger!
Wen Wan muttered, "Why the rush? Aci, are you exploiting Assistant Chen?"
Gu Ci: He is the boss.
Helping Gu Ci to sit down on the sofa, she opened the lunchbox. "This time it's pork rib soup, boneless stewed chicken, stir-fried pork, and stir-fried vegetables."
Wen Wan picked up the lunchbox, took the spoon, and handed it to Gu Ci.
Gu Ci took a bite, and Wen Wan quickly asked, "Is it good?"
Gu Ci: "It's alright."
"Do you think Qin Qin's ancestors were imperial chefs? He's so young, how come his cooking skills are so amazing? I've never seen anyone cook better than him."
Gu Ci paused, spoon in hand. "The food is a little cold."
Wen Wan: "It should be getting a bit chilly. I've been waiting for you here for two hours, and I'm so bored."
"Feel sorry."
"It's okay. It's my fault for not telling you in advance. I'll call you beforehand next time and bring you food."
After finishing her meal, Wen Wan put the lunchbox away. "Alright, I won't disturb you any longer, Aci. I'll head back now."
Just as I was about to leave, I felt it would be strange to leave like this.
So she turned around and gave Gu Ci a hug, "Go for it, Ci! Xuanxuan, Jiaojiao, and I are waiting for you to come home."
Then he left.
As soon as the door closed, Gu Ci rubbed his fingers against the hem of his pants, suddenly feeling a bit irritated.
So, Mr. Gu, who had been working overtime and even dragging the company into it, surprisingly left work on time today.
The employees were utterly shocked.
What they didn't know was that from then on, they would enjoy the happiness of leaving get off work on time every single day.
...
Wen Wan is quite enjoying her current life, with two beautiful little babies. At first, Wen Wan approached the two little babies with the mission of saving her own life, but now she has really fallen in love with the two children, Jiao Jiao and Xuan Xuan.
As for Gu Ci, although he wasn't particularly close to her, Wen Wan usually had to coax him.
But Wen Wan was quite happy about it, after all, such a handsome guy with a perfect face and body is hard to come by.
Besides, you don't have to take responsibility for flirting.
What a winner in life!
The system was much more concerned than Wen Wan, because the book did not mention that Gu Ci had also suffered an eye injury and gone blind.
And it's been almost a month, and Gu Ci is still blind.
The female lead is coming back soon. Will the scene between the two in the airport restroom proceed smoothly?
If Gu Ci is still blind by then, will he be able to recognize the female lead?
[Host, do you think Gu Ci's doctor is incompetent? The next plot point is almost here, and Gu Ci is still blind.]
"So what do you want?"
[Take Gu Ci to see several specialists. Maybe one of them is incompetent. How can Gu Ci, as the male lead, have such a disability?]
Wen Wan thought about it and agreed.
So he asked Assistant Chen to contact well-known ophthalmologists in City A, and even some overseas.
Assistant Chen was somewhat surprised to hear what the lady said.
However, it was still mentioned that Mr. Gu only trusted his private doctor.
Wen Wan was speechless. Private doctors are good, but wouldn't it be better to see more doctors?
I had Assistant Chen make the arrangements, and then, under the pretext of having dinner with Gu Ci, I had the driver take Gu Ci directly to the hospital where the specialist was located.
As soon as Gu Ci entered the hospital and smelled the saline solution, he knew this was not Qin Qin's private restaurant.
Why did you bring me here?
Gu Ci's expression turned cold. He hadn't expected Qin Sisi to dare to deceive him.
Wen Wan pulled Gu Ci, "Aci, I want to heal your eyes, I want you to see me."
"Aci, please give it a try, okay?" With a hint of pleading in her voice, Gu Ci finally gave up and turned to leave.
Soon the two met with an expert, who carefully examined Gu Ci's eyes.
The result was the same as what he got from his private doctor.
It requires slow and gradual recuperation, and there is a 50% chance of regaining sight.
Wen Wan: "Doctor, is there really no quick way?"
The expert shook his head.
Afterwards, Wen Wan took Gu Ci to see several ophthalmologists, but the results were all the same: just take good care of him.
Whether it can be restored or not depends on fate.
"How could this happen! Aci, don't worry, I will definitely find a doctor who can cure your eyes."
As she spoke, her voice trembled with emotion, and Gu Ci's aversion to hospitals transformed into a faint, bittersweet feeling that spread through her heart.
"Don't worry, even if I really go blind, I can still live a normal life, and it won't have a big impact on my life."
"I don't want to."
Pulling Gu Ci along, she said, "You're such a good person, how painful it would be if you couldn't see this world!"
The main problem is that you won't be able to see the female lead anymore! What are you going to do?
"You care a lot about whether I can see you?"
"Of course! I love you so much."
—
After that, I met with several other experts, but none of them came up with any special treatment methods.
In order for the male protagonist to regain his sight, Wen Wan began to follow the expert's plan and even sought out many folk remedies.
Qin Qin prepared medicinal meals for Gu Ci, including foods good for the eyes such as pig liver and carrots, which filled Gu Ci's three meals a day.
She even brought Jiaojiao and Xuanxuan along to supervise their father to make sure he ate properly.
Almost everyone in the company knows Qin Sisi, the president's wife. They saw Wen Wan holding Jiao Jiao, who was carrying a lunchbox.
"Madam is bringing food to Mr. Gu again? Is this Miss Gu? She's so cute~" Luckily, she was on duty today, otherwise she wouldn't have seen Madam's little angel.
The receptionist greeted them with a smile; after all, Madam Gu now delivers meals to Mr. Gu on time every day, and they've gotten used to it.
"Yeah, you've worked hard. I bought some milk tea, it should arrive in a bit, I'll share it with my colleagues then!"
"Thank you, Madam."
When they occasionally saw the company's directors, they would greet Wen Wan. After all, she was the one who could keep President Gu in check. Hadn't they noticed that President Gu had been scolding them less frequently lately?
Upon arriving at the office, Gu Ci heard Xiao Gu Jiao's voice, and his furrowed brows subconsciously relaxed.
As soon as the office door opened, Xiao Jiaojiao ran over, "Daddy, dinner's ready!"
A soft, babyish voice.
She's not afraid of her dad anymore. Her mom said that her dad is like a tiger on the surface, but he's actually a cat and not fierce at all.
Upon smelling the familiar aroma of medicinal cuisine, Gu Ci paused for a moment.
But in the end, he didn't say anything and finished the medicinal food clean. Meanwhile, Wen Wan, who couldn't see Gu Ci, stared at him without restraint, watching him frown because he had eaten something he disliked.
"Daddy, is it tasty?"
Gu Ci: "It's alright."
"Mom said that Dad's 'okay' means 'very good,' so it must be delicious, right?"
Gu Ci: "..."
