Chapter 1187: Reproachi
The dinner atmosphere amidst the family of three was very warm.
After dinner, Mo Boyuan returned to the study room. Jiang Tingxu accompanied her son to watch television for a while. When it was time, she coaxed him to go back to his room to wash up and sleep.
She still had to work the following day!
Then, Gu Yueshu was transferred from the intensive care unit to a normal ward of Yun City’s No. 1 hospital in the morning. Of course, it had to be a luxurious VIP single room.
Only the Gu’s second family were still in the ward.
The second madam pinched her son.
“Where’s Ranzhi?” she asked. “Didn’t he say he was coming?”
Except for Gu Ranzhi who stayed outside the ICU ward for a while yesterday, he hadn’t seen Gu Yueshu, his biological father yet.
Gu Ranzhi would naturally inform him beforehand if he was coming.
After all, father and son were blood-related!
…
Yet, they were even more estranged than strangers!
F*ck, who could be blamed?
Forget it!
Gu Yichen felt his mother’s sudden pinch and instantly stomped his feet.
“No, how would I know when my cousin will come?” he shot back.
Anyway, the call was made an hour ago. Since there was no one to be seen by now, then so be it.
Gu Yichen did not dare to ask his cousin, much less call him repeatedly.
On the other hand, Gu Yueshu, who was lying on the hospital bed, suddenly spoke.
“Xiaoming, sister-in-law, and Ah Chen, you all should go back to the hotel first,” he told them. “It’s so late now. I don’t think Ranzhi may be coming.”
He could not keep the disappointment out of his voice.
Gu Xiaoming and his wife looked at each other.
“Alright, Big Brother, we’ll go back to the hotel first. Ranzhi might have been delayed by other matters!” he said.
“It’s fine,” replied Gu Yueshu.
Only then did the second family leave, while the nurse entered the ward to stand guard.
Gu Ranzhi had long been in the ICU department. However, he simply could not get over the hurdle within him, so he kept dragging out the time.
Noticing that Second Uncle Gu and the others had left, Gu Ranzhi stepped out from the dead-end of the corridor. He straightened up the suit he was wearing and walked towards the ward.
The cries of children, the wails of patients… The emergency department was much noisier at night than it was during the day.
Fortunately, there was no one in the VIP ward, and no one noticed Gu Ranzhi, the big celebrity.
In the ward, Gu Yueshu was lying in bed, his eyes trained on the ceiling.
The hired nurse was pouring water at the side, preparing the medicine that Gu Yueshu was going to take later.
“Knock, knock…”
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
The nurse hurriedly put down the kettle.
“Coming. Who is it?” he called.
Upon opening the door, he saw a person standing there.
“You are?” he asked again.
Gu Ranzhi forgave the middle-aged nurse for not following celebrity news or watching entertainment gossip, which was probably the reason why he did not recognize him at all.
Or rather, he just felt that he looked a little familiar.
However, from the corner of his eye, Gu Yueshu saw the person at the door, and a look of excitement broke out over his face.
“Old Li, it’s my son!” he exclaimed.
Old Li was the middle-aged nurse. Now he knew who the person was.
“Then I’ll go out and get two bottles of hot water for use at night,” said Old Li.
As he spoke, he carried the water bottle out and closed the door of the ward.
Gu Ranzhi had seen this man lying on the hospital bed before. In fact, he had seen this man many times when he was young. Not long ago, he had also seen him here once.
After confirming that the man’s condition had improved, he scoffed coldly.
“I’ve already said it before. If you don’t care about your health, then do as you please, but don’t bring your trouble to my mother!” he retorted.
His ex-wife was operating on her ex-husband, and it was the type of emergency treatment that could save his life… Doubt there would ever be a drama scenario like this?
How could Gu Yueshu not know that his son was reproaching him?
“I’m sorry, I didn’t know I would be sent here,” he said.
