Chapter 43: Just kidding
Gu Ning said, raising his arm and rolling up his sleeves for Gu Man to check.
Although it was winter, the temperature was not very cold, so she didn't wear much. She just rolled up her sleeves, revealing her smooth and flawless arms without any signs of injury.
"Yes! Auntie, we were just joking at that time, we didn't fight."
"Yeah yeah!"
Mu Ke and Yu Mixi also hurried forward to help Gu Ning explain.
After hearing what the two said, Gu Man realized that there were other people in the room. Seeing that they were also wearing school uniforms, she knew that they were Gu Ning's classmates.
Gu Man still believed in Gu Ning, so after Gu Ning's explanation, she believed it. When she heard Gu Ning's classmates say this, she believed it even more.
"That's good, that's good." Gu Man responded with confidence.
Then, Gu Man looked around and was shocked.
Gu Man's education level was already that of a freshman, so she was not an ordinary woman without culture and knowledge. So at a glance, she knew that this was not an ordinary ward but a high-end ward.
But how could they afford to stay in such a ward?
"Ningning, Mom is fine now. Let's be discharged from the hospital after the infusion!" said Gu Man.
Gu Ning knew what Gu Man was thinking! He comforted her, "Mom, you have a head injury and are seriously malnourished. You need to rest. Don't worry about the money. I will explain it to you later."
Because Mu Ke and Yu Mixi were there, Gu Ning couldn't say much.
“But...” Gu Man wouldn’t listen to Gu Ning at all. How could she not worry about the money? What’s the situation in their family? Is there anyone who knows it better than her? “There’s no buts. I listened to you last time, and you have to listen to me this time. Wait until the doctor says you can be discharged before you leave the hospital. Do you know how scared I was when I found out you fell and fell unconscious? What would I do if something really happened to you?” Gu Ning used his trump card and acted pitiful and helpless. Even Mu Ke and Yu Mixi were moved.
All of a sudden, Gu Man's heart softened, and she could only compromise temporarily: "Okay, okay, Mom will listen to you, listen to you..."
Regardless, Gu Man was still uneasy, because the money issue was really a difficult problem! How could Gu Ning not know it! But she could only wait until Mu Ke and others left before she could explain to Gu Man.
After a while, when Haoran and his companions came back, in addition to what they had just brought, they also brought many large and small bags, all of which were nutritional supplements, and all of them were top quality.
After a preliminary estimate, the value of these nutritional supplements must be tens of thousands! Gu Man was shocked, and Gu Ning was also a little dumbfounded: "You, why did you buy so many things!"
"Not much, not much, boss. Aunt's recovery is more important than anything else. So, please don't bother with us!" Hao Ran was afraid that Gu Ning would refuse, so he quickly used Gu Man as a shield.
How could Gu Ning not know this! Feeling helpless and at a loss whether to laugh or cry, he was also deeply moved.
They were well off and not short of money, so she didn't refuse him pretentiously: "Okay, let's eat first!"
"Ningning, this..." But Gu Man couldn't accept it because those things were too valuable.
Although Gu Man meant it, Gu Ning comforted her, "Mom, it's okay. They are all my good friends. Do I have to reject their kindness?"
"Yes, yes! Auntie, this is all from our hearts. You have to get well soon!" Haoran and the others immediately nodded in agreement, as if they were afraid that Gu Man would refuse. Their attitude was so sincere.
Now, Gu Man couldn't even say the words to refuse, for fear of disappointing them.
Although Haoran and others didn't know when Gu Man would wake up, they still prepared a nutritious meal for her.
Just as everyone finished their meal, An Xi came and brought a bunch of nutritional supplements.
"Doctor An, you're here." Gu Man felt embarrassed when she saw An Xi holding a bunch of nutritional supplements.
"Mom Gu Ning, just rest assured and come to me if you have any problems. Gu Ning and I are friends. You don't have to be polite to me. Health is the most important thing." An Qian was afraid that Gu Man would feel burdened, so she said in a friendly manner.
"Doctor An, this is too much trouble for you." Gu Man felt even more embarrassed.
"It's not a big deal," An Xi said.
An Xi had to go to work, so she left without staying for long.
In the afternoon, everyone and Gu Ning were accompanying Gu Man, telling jokes from time to time, making Gu Man smile.
Gu Man didn't tell anyone about her hospitalization, including Gu Qing, for fear that they would worry.
* Gu Ning did not come to class in the afternoon, which gave Shao Feifei another excuse to make trouble for Gu Ning.
"Gu Ning didn't come to class this afternoon. Could it be that he went out to have fun with Hao Ran and the others?"
"I guess so! After all, Haoran and his friends are not good people!" Yang Yulu echoed.
Wu Qingya was not willing to be left behind: "It seems that there is something fishy about Gu Ning's victory today! Although Gu Ning has some skills, maybe Hao Ran fell in love with Gu Ning, so he lost on purpose!"
"If you have the guts, just say it in front of Gu Ning and Hao Ran. What's the point of talking about them behind their backs?" One of Gu Ning's loyal admirers couldn't stand it anymore and retorted.
"That's right. If someone doesn't come to class, there must be something wrong with them. The head teacher didn't say anything, so what right do some people have to say anything?"
"Some people just feel too good about themselves. Just because they have some money at home, they think they are princesses."
"So! Some people forget that Hao Ran is not someone she can mess with."
"You..." Shao Feifei's face twisted with anger when she heard this, but their words did scare her. Hao Ran was definitely not someone she could afford to offend.
Otherwise, why would she only dare to make up stories behind his back instead of questioning him in person?
She did not forget what Haoran said to her at noon!
In fact, Shao Feifei and the others were not popular in the class. They knew very well what kind of people they were. It was just that they had a good family background, so they just didn't like it and didn't dare to say anything.
Now most of them have been convinced by Gu Ning, so when they heard Shao Feifei and others making up such stories about Gu Ning, they couldn't help but refute and defend Gu Ning.
* After getting off work, An Xi came to see Gu Man.
"Doctor An, when can I be discharged from the hospital?" Gu Man asked.
Because Gu Ning had already explained it, An Xi followed Gu Ning's instructions and said, "You hit your head. You need to observe for a day or two. Otherwise, it will relapse, which is very serious."
Hearing this, Gu Man was really a little scared. If it was really serious, it would cost more money! So, it was hard to say anything more.
But in my heart, I am still worried about money.
