Chapter Twenty-Five: Where is she?



It was noon, and the hospital was unusually quiet. The nurse on duty, with dark circles under her eyes, was dozing off against the front desk.

Suddenly, several suppressed screams reached my ears.

"Ahhh, so handsome!"

"Did our hospital have some kind of blessing today? Why are there so many incredibly handsome guys here?"

The nurse groggily opened her eyes and saw a magnified handsome face in front of her.

With strong facial features, a high nose bridge, and deep, dark eyes that look at people with focused and affectionate eyes.

The nurse's mind went completely blank for a moment. Oh my god, he's so handsome!

Ye Yunting tapped his long, slender fingers on the counter with some impatience: "Hello, may I ask which room this lady is staying in?"

As he spoke, he zoomed in on the screenshot in his hand. The blurry image quality allowed the nurse to vaguely see that the woman was wearing a beige suit, had a graceful figure, and fair skin. She looked like a beautiful woman, but the image was too blurry to make out her features.

The nurse's face scrunched up like a bun: "This is way too blurry..."

Do you have a pen?

Yes, yes.

The nurse hurriedly bent down to find a pen.

Ye Yunting waited anxiously, then suddenly seemed to realize something and turned to look at the door.

A slender figure flashed past the doorway.

It's her!

Ye Yunting quickly caught up with him. Behind him, the nurse, having finished finding the pen, looked up and found the handsome man gone, looking completely bewildered.

Just as Ye Yunting reached the door, the familiar figure got into a taxi.

He hurriedly flagged down a car and followed, but lost sight of the car in front when it turned a corner.

Gu Baiwei knew nothing about any of this.

After two days in the hospital, she was so sick of eating only congee and cabbage that she almost threw up. As soon as she was discharged, she couldn't wait to drag Ye Chuyue out for hot pot.

The hot pot restaurant they chose was incredibly popular; the queue was so long it took forever.

After queuing up and getting a number, Ye Chuyue bought two cups of milk tea and the two sat in the waiting area, drinking and waiting for their seats.

Just as I was waiting, several girls suddenly screamed from ahead.

"Ahhh, it's that streamer! He's so handsome in person!"

"Hey bro, can I see your abs?"

...

Upon hearing about abs, Gu Baiwei instantly perked up, craning her neck to look in that direction, only to spot a familiar, handsome face.

Her expression froze for a moment; it was Lu Ran.

Ever since confirming that the person in question was Ye Yunting, Gu Baiwei has never watched Lu Ran's live stream again, and has even blocked both of them.

Lu Ran is here, and Ye Yunting might be here too.

At that moment, the waiter's voice came from the loudspeaker.

"Please come in and dine, customer number 98."

Ye Chuyue excitedly pulled her towards the store, saying, "It's finally our turn, let's go!"

Gu Baiwei pulled her back: "I suddenly remembered that the doctor told me to avoid certain foods. How about we go to another hospital?"

...

Lu Ran went through great lengths to escape the enthusiastic fan group.

Although he appears glib and smooth-talking online, in reality, just like his online name suggests, his romantic experience is completely blank.

Suddenly surrounded by so many female fans, he blushed with nervousness, not to mention that quite a few bold female fans reached out and touched his arms and abs.

He went to a quiet shop, bought a hat and a mask to disguise himself, and only then did he dare to go out.

After dodging and weaving our way through the crowd, we finally arrived at the entrance of that supposedly famous hot pot restaurant, only to find that the line stretched for almost an entire street.

His face fell instantly; how long would it take to get through this?

Thinking of Ye Yunting's anxious expression as he said he was going to find someone, he sent Ye Yunting a message while he was in line.

Pure Male College Student: Old Ye, have you found him yet?

Ting: We didn't catch up.

Hearing this reply filled with deep disappointment, Lu Ran could picture Ye Yunting looking utterly dejected.

He raised his phone, snapped a picture of the crowd, and sent it: Come on over for hot pot. There's no problem that a hot pot meal can't solve.

The moment the message was sent, Ye Yunting called.

Lu Ran smiled. See? There's nothing a hot pot meal can't solve.

He pressed the answer button, but before he could even speak, Ye Yunting's urgent voice came from the other end.

"Where are you? Send me your address."

"Ah, okay, no need to rush, there are plenty of people."

Before I could finish speaking, the other party had already hung up the phone cleanly and decisively.

A message popped up on WeChat: Keep an eye on this woman for me.

In the photo, behind the bustling crowd, two young women are standing at the store entrance talking, each holding a cup of milk tea.

One of the women, wearing a nude-colored fitted halter dress, was circled by Ye Yunting in red.

The moment Lu Ran saw that face clearly, he immediately looked up in that direction.

But the people there had already disappeared. He stood on tiptoe, peering through the throng of people into the store, but he couldn't find that familiar figure at all.

He never expected to run into her here.

Last time she told him her name was Lin Xueting. He finally managed to find out Lin Xueting's contact information, and after adding her, he excitedly opened her WeChat Moments, only to find a completely unfamiliar face that had undergone plastic surgery.

Just then, a hand patted him on the shoulder.

Lu Ran turned around and saw Ye Yunting standing behind him, panting: "Where is he?"

Meeting Ye Yunting's anxious gaze, Lu Ran felt inexplicably guilty: "I just received a message and then I found out that he was missing."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yunting anxiously looked up and around, only to see unfamiliar faces everywhere he looked.

"Gu Baiwei!"

He shouted at the crowd, and many people turned to look at him and whispered to him, but they did not see that bright face from their memories.
