He looked down at the colorless ashes, lost in thought.
Xu Zhaozhao will definitely be on the reality show...
Gou Ge guessed that the two had quarreled, and his heart was in turmoil.
Gu Qingyan raised his hand and slowly brought the cigarette holder to his lips. The smoke circulated in his chest and was slowly exhaled.
"No……"
He had only just uttered a short, sharp sound.
Bang.
The ward was burst into; a tremendous force slammed the door against the wall, interrupting his words and drawing the attention of the two people inside.
Chi Li, wearing a white lab coat, glared at Gou Ge with a pale face: "Don't you know how to close the door behind you when you go in and out?!"
ah?
Was the door left open?
Knowing he was in the wrong, Gou lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, Dr. Chi, I'll definitely be more careful next time."
Xu Zhaozhao left the door open, allowing him to save Gu Qingyan; Gou Ge left the door open, allowing him to hear the explosive news.
Why didn't either of them close the door? Were they sure he would eavesdrop?
Unable to glare at Gu Qingyan, he could only vent his anger on Gou Ge.
"Gu Qingyan, you're such a coward!"
Chi Li was disappointed in him.
"Can't you resolve your conflict? What good will begging to die do you?"
Gu Qingyan didn't even glance at him, just calmly smoking, as if nothing could stir his emotions anymore.
Chi Li was furious with him. He glared at Gou Ge and said, "You go out first. I'll talk to him."
After seeing Gu Qingyan nod, Gou Ge finally moved and left the ward.
This time, they actually closed the ward door properly.
Only Chi Li and Gu Qingyan remained in the room.
If it weren't for Gou Ge, Chi Li wouldn't have known that this guy had woken up.
One hand was wrapped in bandages, the other had an IV drip, and the first thing he did upon waking was reach for a cigarette...
Chi Li approached, and the smell of smoke filling the ward made him frown.
He's the only one who would smoke so openly in a hospital room.
"Tell me, what's going on between you and your sister-in-law?"
Chi Li let out a deep breath, telling himself not to be angry.
Patient, patient!
"It's nothing serious."
Gu Qingyan stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray without looking up at him. "It's just that she wants a divorce."
?
"That's it? That's it?"
Chi Li was so angry he almost laughed. "You think this is enough to make you want to die?"
"Brother, if we don't let her get a divorce, do you think she can actually do it?"
The world that revolves around money and power is just that real.
With just one word from Gu Qingyan, the divorce application could not be submitted.
Chi Li rolled her eyes. "He has to be widowed."
Did soaking in a hot spring damage his brain?
After Chi Li finished speaking, Gu Qingyan fell silent.
He held a new cigarette in his hand, but couldn't light it with a lighter.
Then, it was bent and thrown into the trash can.
"Brother Gou!"
He raised his voice and shouted, and Gou Ge, who was leaning against the door, heard it and hurriedly opened the ward door and came in.
"Boss, you wanted to see me?"
The next second, the plastic bag that had been in Gou Ge's hand was snatched away.
The two rings were returned to Gu Qingyan's hands.
He put them in the pocket of his hospital gown and buttoned them up to prevent them from falling out.
"go."
What?
It took Gou Ge a full ten seconds to realize that Gu Qingyan was talking about going to the children's variety show.
"Okay, okay."
...
Four days later, Gu Qingyan's condition improved significantly.
Gou Ge delivered the new black suit to the ward.
For the first time in four days, Gu Qingyan changed out of his hospital gown and into a suit.
He didn't look like a patient who had just left the hospital at all, except that his skin had become even whiter.
Chi Li has been keeping a close eye on him these past few days, and like him, he has been eating and sleeping at the hospital, not daring to be negligent for even a second.
It's the middle of the night now. The original plan was for him to go directly to the recording site tomorrow.
But the Holy See has several documents piling up, and tonight is the deadline; he has to go back and sign them.
Chi Li opened the ward door, and Gu Qingyan was adjusting his tie in front of the mirror.
He leaned against the wall and teased, "Oh, you're not dead anymore?"
No one knows Gu Qingyan's condition better than him. As long as he takes his medicine on time, he won't be so easily swayed by his emotions, nor will he always think about dying.
He glanced at Chi Li with a lingering look, then parted his thin lips slightly, "He's not dead."
Gu Qingyan pushed past him and walked out of the ward, saying, "I'm going to participate in the program."
Come on.
He phrased going to see his wife so euphemistically.
"Wait."
Chi Li noticed the scab that had just fallen off the back of his hand.
It's a different color from normal skin. Although it will heal properly later, it still looks a bit awkward right now.
"Bandage your hand before you go."
Gu Qingyan glanced down at it twice and softly replied, "Mm."
Zhao Zhao doesn't like ugly things, so let's cover them up.
It was only wrapped in a thin layer of gauze, barely noticeable, but enough to cover the marks on the back of the hand.
After the bandage was finished, he watched Gu Qingyan walk out of the hospital.
Chi Li sighed softly, walked to the bedside, and picked up his medical record.
Just as I was looking at it intently, a thin old man wearing a white coat walked in from outside.
Chi Li tactfully handed over the medical record, saying, "Professor, I think he has been diagnosed with a new illness."
"oh?"
The old professor took off his reading glasses and looked at Chi Li. "Tell me about it."
Chi Li said in a serious tone, "He's been diagnosed with love-struck brain, late stage."
The old professor put his reading glasses back on, picked up his pen, and tapped his skull hard. "ScI would have to stop publishing without you."
Chi Li knew that her teacher disliked her.
He followed along eagerly, saying, "Teacher, it's obvious that Brother Gu has fallen in love with your wife."
She sighed heavily, "Why did I fall in love so soon after regaining the ability to love?"
Even monks don't achieve enlightenment as quickly as he did.
The old professor stopped and glanced at Chi Li sideways. "Because your cause and effect are wrong."
Is the cause and effect wrong?
Chi Li was taken aback.
So... he fell in love first, and then regained the ability to love?
The old professor didn't wait for him and strode forward. Chi Li didn't chase after him.
“His condition is still unstable,”
After walking a short distance, the old professor stopped again, turned back to look at Chi Li, and said, "Remember to remind him to take his medicine these next few days."
Chi Li thought to himself: If he had listened to me, his condition wouldn't be so unstable.
But in front of the teacher, they could only obediently lower their heads and say, "Yes, mentor!"
If the casting for the children's variety show hadn't already been finalized, he would have loved to fly to the show to supervise this guy taking his medicine!
