Chapter 15 Apology
When Gu Yunxi woke up again, it was already evening. She checked her phone and was surprised to find more than a dozen unfamiliar calls.
There was even a text message from Liu Ying, which said that Wu Jiang from the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangcheng Medical University asked her for her number, saying he needed her help.
So, those dozen or so phone calls must have come from Wujiang.
The phone rang and connected immediately, with a very urgent voice coming from the other end.
"Is this Master Gu? I am a family member from Wujiang. He seems to be sick and can't speak. It's been almost a day, and the hospital hasn't found anything."
Let me give you a call and tell him that only you can cure his illness, please, please save him.
Did he admit his mistake?
A clear and pleasant voice reached Wu Jiang's mother's ears. She looked down at her phone. Was this the right number?
Why does it sound like a woman's voice? She doesn't sound very old, is she reliable?
Wu Jiang nodded heavily, and she quickly added, "Xiao Jiang... he... he admitted his mistake!"
“It’s too far away for me to see. I’ll send you an address so he can come find me. By the way, he should come with sincerity.”
After saying that, he hung up the phone!
He's too impatient. He'll be able to speak naturally in a day or two.
That's fine too. Consider it a lesson for him. He's not someone to be trifled with, and neither am I.
Insulting the ancestor would inevitably bring misfortune, so I was just giving him a small punishment.
An hour later, Wu Jiang rang the doorbell. He never expected that the woman would live here.
This is the famous Royal Bay Villa District, a gathering place for the wealthy and powerful.
After Wang Ma informed Gu Yunxi, she went outside.
Standing on the second floor, Gu Yan saw Gu Yunxi go to meet a man and took out her phone.
As expected of someone from the countryside, she's not settled at all. She's only been here a few days and she's already hooked up with a man from outside!
She touched her stomach and felt much better after taking the medicine.
It's a pity that Fourth Brother didn't come, otherwise he could have taken a good look at her.
"Dr. Wu, weren't you quite ambitious back then, not only scolding me but also glaring at me? How come you can't stand it after only half a day?"
Wu Jiang's mother smiled and said, "I never expected that such a remarkable person would be such a beautiful girl, and live in such a luxurious place."
Wu Jiang quickly stepped forward, pointed to his mouth, and almost burst into tears.
Gu Yunxi patted his shoulder. "Ah!" Wu Jiang cleared his throat.
"Me!" He turned around excitedly and looked at his elderly mother. "Mom, I can speak again. My body has recovered."
"Thank you, Master Gu. I was blind to your greatness this morning and offended you with my words. It is right that you punish me. These are some gifts as an apology. Please accept them."
Gu Yunxi glanced at his side and saw some tonics, and she even noticed a box of Ganoderma lucidum.
These gifts were thoughtfully prepared.
"It's alright, let's just let it go. But don't look down on anyone in the future, or you'll be the one who suffers."
"That's it, that's it!"
Seeing that they had recovered, the two did not stay long and quickly took their leave.
“Xiao Jiang, she didn’t treat you, so why are you able to speak? We spent so much money and bought so many gifts. Maybe even if we hadn’t come, you would have recovered by now.”
"Mom, stop talking, let's go quickly. She's amazing. Didn't you see? She gently patted my shoulder just now, and I was able to speak immediately. She's a master!"
"So that's how it is!"
Gu Yunxi looked up at the second floor, and a figure flashed into the room.
"Wang Ma, you can have these things."
"Oh! Thank you, Miss Yunxi!" She gave away so many nice things so readily, unlike that adopted daughter who acted like she was the mistress of the house.
Even if she eats just one more bite of fruit, she'll glare at her angrily!
That evening, Gu Yunsheng, the fourth son of the Gu family, returned home!
He brought back two boxes of desserts and saw a strange woman in the living room. He figured this must be his sister, Gu Yunxi!
"Yan'er, this is for you."
He placed a box of desserts in front of Gu Yan and walked towards Gu Yunxi, saying, "Yunxi, this is for you."
"Thank you, Fourth Brother, but I don't really like sweets."
[This is Gu Yan's fourth son, the one who loves her the most among her five brothers. Perhaps because I came to inform her, Gu Yan has probably complained to him countless times.]
I guess I've been too tired from work lately, so why am I hallucinating?
"You don't like desserts, so what do you like to eat? Tell me, and I'll buy it for you."
He sat down next to Gu Yan.
Actually, what I like most is money; food is nothing compared to money.
"Fourth Brother!" Gu Yan looked at him with teary eyes, her pitiful appearance arousing a strong desire to protect her.
"What's wrong? Why are you crying?"
Gu Yan clung to his arm and began to whine, "Fourth Brother, why don't you answer my calls? Why don't you reply to my messages?"
"Oh! My phone was broken, I just got it back today. What happened? Is there anything I can help you with?"
Gu Yan looked up at Liu Zheng's face and thought that since her father wasn't around, she shouldn't say anything.
"No...it's nothing, I'm just feeling a little unwell, could you take a look at me?"
Let's go!
The two of them went upstairs.
[Tsk tsk tsk! No wonder he's the female lead's good brother, worrying about the smallest things. What could Gu Yan possibly be doing wrong? She's just slandering me, oh well! I'm probably going to get a scolding again when I go downstairs.]
Gu Yunlang was puzzled as to why the fourth brother seemed not to have heard Yunxi's thoughts. Could it be that he really couldn't hear them?
That shouldn't be the case. They are all their mother's children. Except for the second brother, who hasn't met Yunxi yet, the others can all hear her thoughts. It's very strange.
About ten minutes later, Gu Yun stormed downstairs in a huff.
[Here comes the cheap fourth brother, looking for trouble.]
【3, 2, 1】
"Gu Yunxi, what a mess you've made."
Gu Yunxi sat up straight. "Fourth Brother, what's wrong? Your little sister Yan'er is complaining to you again. What is she trying to pick a fight with today? Tell me, I'm all ears."
?
What does Gu Yunxi mean by this? How did she know that I was here to cause trouble?
[I preemptively struck, but I don't know how I even started. I bet my little sister Yan'er upstairs is adding fuel to the fire, saying all sorts of bad things about me.]
"What...what did you just say?"
Gu Yunxi blinked innocently, "I'm just asking you, did she say I bullied her again?"
"Alright, Yunsheng, your sister has been here for several days now, and you're only just getting back. What's more important than your sister than work?"
"Yunxi is your own sister, we are family. The one upstairs is just an adopted daughter. No matter what happens, please don't doubt her, okay?"
[This is what a beautiful mother is like; she speaks so sweetly. It just feels like the plot doesn't quite connect. Oh well, since they mean me no harm, I'll stay with the Gu family for now.]
"Mom, I have some things to take care of, I'm going upstairs now."
"Okay, go quickly!"
After Gu Yunxi closed the bedroom door, Liu Zheng took Gu Yunsheng's hand and whispered:
"Judging from your expression, you must have heard everything, right?"
