Chapter 46: It’s a blessing to be controlled by others
"No, I want to wait here for the results. I want to know my grandma's physical condition as soon as possible."
Gu Xiucheng did not try to persuade him any further. He arranged for someone to prepare hot tea and a blanket so that he could wait with Ning Mingluo.
Seeing Gu Xiucheng like this, Ning Mingluo felt a little guilty.
"You arranged for someone to help grandma with the surgery, and you also have a lot of things to do. You should go and rest first. I have delayed a lot of your work recently."
Gu Xiucheng approached Ning Mingluo and said, "No matter how big the problem is, it's not as important as your problem to me right now."
Looking at Gu Xiu's serious expression, Ning Mingluo pursed her lips.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that the reasons he was struggling with were not so important anymore.
In the past, no matter what happened, he was alone.
When his grandmother was sick, he was alone in the hospital, helpless. When his grandmother passed away, he was alone. When he was bullied at work, he had to bear the grievance alone.
But now it’s different. There is someone who is willing to listen to him, willing to work with him to solve the problems he encounters, and willing to pamper him.
If this relationship cannot go further, Ning Mingluo thinks he will probably never fall in love again in his life.
Besides, it’s just a relationship, why take it so seriously?
Gu Xiucheng's eyes were always on Ning Mingluo, and he immediately noticed any movement Ning Mingluo made.
Seeing his fair and soft hand covering his own, Gu Xiucheng was stunned for a moment, and then the weight on his shoulder and the unique fragrance of Ning Mingluo entered Gu Xiucheng's nose.
"Let me lean on you for a moment." Ning Mingluo's voice was a little tired.
Gu Xiucheng quickly pulled the blanket up and couldn't help but feel excited.
This was the first time Ning Mingluo had been so close to him since they got angry. Gu Xiucheng couldn't help but think that maybe Ning Mingluo was planning to slowly accept him?
Gu Xiucheng felt that he had not been so excited for a long time.
In the past, no matter what he faced, he never felt excited.
Whether it's leading the company to greater heights, winning an award, or his employees making mistakes, these things are no big deal to him.
But now, the person next to him can easily make his thoughts fluctuate.
Ning Mingluo's influence on him was really huge.
It was a degree that he himself had not anticipated at the beginning.
But he felt that he enjoyed this kind of influence and didn't want it to disappear at all.
Feeling that Gu Xiucheng had no intention of avoiding her approach, Ning Mingluo silently raised the corners of his lips.
"After grandma recovers, let's talk about our affairs, okay?"
"Don't think too much about it now. Just lean on me and have a good rest." Gu Xiucheng patted Ning Mingluo gently.
Grandma's operation will take a while, but Ning Mingluo doesn't want to leave to rest. He can only try his best to comfort Ning Mingluo and let him relax on his own. It would be best if he could rest.
"good."
Gu Xiucheng stayed with Ning Mingluo in the hospital all night.
When it was almost dawn, Ning Mingluo could no longer hold on and closed his eyes for a while.
But he soon woke up again. Looking at Ning Mingluo's red eyes, Gu Xiucheng felt so distressed.
Fortunately, the operation did not last long and the door of the operating room was finally opened.
As soon as the door opened, Ning Mingluo immediately walked towards the operating room.
"Mr. Gu, Mr. Ning, the old lady's surgery went smoothly. She will recuperate in the hospital for a while and then be taken home to rest."
Ning Mingluo looked at the doctor in disbelief: "Is there really no problem?"
The doctor smiled and said, "Do you think my skills are good enough for you to trust me?"
As an authoritative expert in this field, he has countless successful surgical cases.
Ning Mingluo shook his head: "No, I just can't believe that grandma is really healed."
At this moment, Ning Mingluo no longer cared about anything else. In this life of rebirth, as long as he could keep his grandmother, nothing else mattered.
He doesn't care about fame or profit, as long as he can help his grandmother recover, that's enough.
"The old lady is still asleep and will probably wake up at night. Just keep quiet and cultivate yourself."
"Thanks."
Grandma was transferred to the ward, and Gu Xiucheng finally persuaded Ning Mingluo to rest.
"But I still want to stay here with grandma for a while."
Gu Xiucheng's face darkened. "You didn't get any rest last night. Look at your eyes, they're as red as a rabbit's. Do you want grandma to see you like this when she wakes up and make her worry?"
"Can……"
Gu Xiucheng raised his eyebrows.
It was rare to see Gu Xiucheng with such a cold face, and Ning Mingluo felt scared, so he obediently went to the lounge next door to rest.
Perhaps because he knew that his grandmother was fine, Ning Mingluo relaxed and did not wake up until the afternoon.
When he woke up, Ning Mingluo was still a little dazed. He looked at the pure white ceiling, then suddenly sat up from the bed.
I wonder how grandma is doing?
Ning Mingluo came out of the lounge and saw Gu Xiucheng sitting on the sofa outside, looking at the computer with a serious expression.
"Well, just continue as planned. If there's another mistake this time, I'll go over there myself to see how difficult this job is."
"This plan has been approved. All we need to do is notify all departments to implement it according to the plan. I want to see the results before the end of the year."
"One last thing. I've heard someone has been taking advantage of their position to enrich themselves. It would be best to do this before I officially begin my investigation. Return what's owed and resign."
Gu Xiucheng seemed to be in a meeting with the company's employees.
Ning Mingluo looked at the time. It was three o'clock in the afternoon, which was indeed working time.
Did Gu Xiucheng not go to the company because he and his grandmother were in the hospital?
It must be very difficult to handle the work in this way. Obviously, the sound insulation here is very good, but Gu Xiucheng still lowered the volume. He is really careful in taking care of his own affairs.
So careful that he feels like he is also a treasure.
People like him will also be treated gently by others.
Ning Mingluo knocked lightly on the wall, trying to signal to Gu Xiucheng that he was awake.
The original intention was to ask Gu Xiucheng to resume volume control, but Gu Xiucheng said to the computer: "Today's meeting ends here. For the remaining questions, send me an email and I will handle it."
Before Ning Mingluo could react, Gu Xiucheng had already ended the meeting, closed his computer, and walked towards him.
Ning Mingluo finally reacted when she saw the man so close to her.
"Don't you want to take care of the work first?"
"It's been taken care of."
"But weren't you in a meeting just now? Is it really okay to end it like this?"
"Don't worry, Secretary Wang will take care of it, and I've already made all the necessary arrangements."
Ning Mingluo raised an eyebrow: "I remember Secretary Wang told me before that you are not a workaholic? But now I don't think you are that kind of person."
“There has to be a balance between work and life.”
Looking at Gu Xiucheng who was lying with his eyes open, Ning Mingluo smiled helplessly.
"Okay, just take care of your work. I'm refreshed now and will go to stay with grandma."
"I'm with you. You haven't eaten anything since you slept until now. I'll have someone bring food over."
"Um."
Gu Xiucheng stayed with Ning Mingluo throughout the afternoon. Ning Mingluo had no energy to do anything else and his attention was focused on his grandmother. He could only feel at ease when he saw his grandmother wake up with his own eyes.
As time passed, Ning Mingluo became more and more nervous, and Gu Xiucheng squeezed his hand.
"Don't worry, grandma's physical indicators are all normal. She will wake up soon."
Ning Mingluo glanced at the sunset outside the window. It was almost evening.
"Yeah. Grandma will definitely wake up."
"Mingluo." A weak voice sounded in the quiet ward.
Ning Mingluo caught it immediately and approached his grandmother anxiously.
Sure enough, Grandma Yi had already opened her eyes. After seeing Ning Mingluo, she put on a forced smile and said, "I'm sorry to have worried you."
Ning Mingluo shook her head and held her grandmother's hand. "I'm relieved now that Grandma is awake. Please don't say anything yet. Let the nurse come and check you out first."
The inspection was over quickly.
"The patient is fine, just take good care of him."
"Can you feel at ease now?"
Ning Mingluo nodded, and this time he felt truly at ease.
Grandma looked at Gu Xiucheng and then at Ning Mingluo, a hint of worry flashed in her eyes, but she didn't say it out loud.
Forget it, I’ll talk to Mingluo later.
During the days that grandma was recuperating in the hospital, Ning Mingluo stayed by her side every step of the way. Seeing that grandma's spirit was getting better day by day, Ning Mingluo's mood also improved.
"Grandma, how are you feeling today?" Gu Xiucheng came in with some fruit.
Of course, apart from Ning Mingluo, the person who went to the hospital most diligently was naturally Gu Xiucheng.
"Xiucheng is here. I'm fine today. I'm discussing discharge with Mingluo. Although the hospital takes good care of me, it still doesn't feel as comfortable as home."
Ning Mingluo also looked at Gu Xiucheng: "Please help me persuade grandma. The doctor clearly told her to stay in the hospital for a while, but she's already thinking about going home."
Gu Xiucheng smiled and said, "Is there anything wrong with the care here? I'll have to raise some concerns with the nurses there later."
When grandma heard what Gu Xiucheng said, she naturally gave up the idea of going home.
I couldn't help but say, "Xiucheng, you are under the strict control of Mingluo."
Gu Xiucheng looked at Ning Mingluo with a smile in his eyes: "It's quite happy to be taken care of by him. Grandma should understand it too."
Gu Xiucheng's words made the tips of his ears turn red.
"What are you and grandma talking about!"
Looking at the little looks of the two people, grandma pursed her lips.
"Xiu Cheng, please help me peel an orange."
