Chapter 1144: Uncle Gu Cried
Wen Jie didn’t know whether to call it a coincidence or a stroke of luck.
“Ah Jie. ”
“Good morning, Ah Jie! ”
Of course, the second madam of the Gu family was more amiable and lively than Wen Jie’s husband. After all, many years ago, there was no conflict between the two sisters-in-law.
Wen Jie nodded. “Good Morning. ”
The atmosphere was rather awkward.
Fortunately, the second madam of the Gu family wasn’t introverted and was usually very lively. Even in the extremely awkward atmosphere, she could still find a topic to talk about.
“Ah Jie, are you preparing to start work or going home? ”
“I’m going home, ” said Wen Jie.
“It’s been hard on you. ”
…
Wen Jie really wanted to say, “It’s not been hard at all. I’m just doing my duty as a doctor. ”
However, the elevator going downward arrived.
“I’ll be leaving first. ”
After saying that, without waiting for the second madam of the Gu family to reply, Wen Jie stepped into the elevator. Soon, the elevator door closed.
Only then did the second madam of the Gu family fan herself with her hands. “It was too uncomfortable just now. It was so awkward. I’ve never been so awkward in my life! ” she complained.
Gu Xiaoming, who was a tactless man, replied, “Didn’t you keep searching for topics to talk about? I couldn’t tell that you were awkward at all. ”
The second madam of the Gu family hissed and rolled her eyes.
“Blockhead, I can’t be bothered to explain further. ”
When the two of them arrived at the ward, they waited outside the door.
Jiang Tingxu heard movement from outside and went forward to open the door.
“Uncle Gu, Auntie, you’ve come. ”
“Yeah, I couldn’t get a good rest, so I just came earlier to quickly lay my worries to rest. Has his uncle woken up? ”
“He’s awake. ”
When they heard that Gu Yueshu had woken up, the two elders heaved a great sigh of relief. “Since he’s awake, I presume there aren’t major problems with his condition? ”
Hearing that, Jiang Tingxu nodded. “Yes, there were many uncontrollable factors when he was still unconscious. Now that he’s woken up, it means that he has already pulled through. With some supervision, there won’t be many problems from here onward. ”
“Then, can we go in and take a look? ”
Since the day before, they hadn’t taken a look at Gu Yichen. They had to see his condition for themselves.
Jiang Tingxu hesitated for a moment, but she still agreed, “Follow me to change your attire. ”
Unlike in ordinary wards, to enter the ICU, one had to change into a sterile suit.
…
After changing, the old couple followed Jiang Tingxu into the ward.
Upon seeing Gu Yueshu on the bed with his eyes open, Uncle Gu’s eyes turned red. “Big Brother, you’re finally awake! ”
“We’re two biological brothers with the same mother! Don’t f*cking cry! ” Gu Yueshu thought as he disdainfully looked at his younger brother, who was red-eyed and on the verge of tears.
“I’m… fine… ” he said in a low voice.
Who knew that after Uncle Gu heard his big brother’s voice, he couldn’t hold in the tears that he had held back since the day before anymore and started crying.
He kept repeating in his heart, “Big Brother is awake! He’s fine! ”
The relationship between the two brothers was visibly very good.
In the end, it was the second madam of the Gu family who came forward to pull her husband back and continuously comfort him. “Gu Xiaoming, don’t cry anymore. Big Brother is fine, so why are you crying? ”
After hearing his wife’s words, Uncle Gu slowly stopped crying.
Meanwhile, Jiang Tingxu checked on Gu Yueshu again before leaving the Gu family members alone. “Mr. Gu is fine. I’ll head back to my office now. ”
The second madam of the Gu family pulled her husband along and could only nod repeatedly. “Okay, sure. Go back and rest first. We’ll call you if something happens. You’ve been busy all night. ”
