Chapter 349 The Strange Nurse
Chapter 349 The Strange Nurse
Back in the ward, Xiao Lin told Gu Zhiyao about what he had just said to He Yi. "Although he didn't say anything, I think he listened and was still touched."
Gu Zhiyao also told Xiao Lin about her argument with He Yi. After speaking, she smiled bitterly and angrily, "Brother Xiao Lin, let's not have too high hopes for him. We need to be prepared for both possibilities. Let's assume that he will help Zheng Yuanxi and then plan how to fight this lawsuit. I'm sorry, Xiao Lin, I've caused you trouble again."
"Silly girl, what are you saying?" Xiao Lin patted her head solemnly, "Zhiyao, what I said to He Yi just now was also my true feelings. I lost you and let you fall into that abyss. I have a responsibility to rescue you."
Gu Zhiyao, with tears in her eyes, silently looked at him without saying a word.
Xiao Lin was about to go to work later. Before leaving, she asked, "Should I tell Chenchen and Niuniu about your hospitalization? I originally told them you were away on a business trip. If you want to see them, I'll bring them along. They're still young, so I can always find another reason to lie to them."
Xiao Lin hoped that the child's arrival would provide Gu Zhiyao with some strength and encouragement.
Gu Zhiyao did indeed miss it very much, so she nodded.
“Then I’ll bring them over tonight,” Xiao Lin said.
Gu Zhiyao thanked her.
Xiao Lin leaned down and kissed her forehead before leaving.
Gu Zhiyao lay down and quietly pondered how to sue Zheng Yuanxi and how to successfully convict her. She gradually fell asleep.
When she woke up again, she saw a nurse looking around and couldn't help but call out.
The nurse hurriedly turned around, a strange glint flashing in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and said, "You're awake? This is a nourishing meal for you. Would you like to eat it now? It would be best if you ate it now."
As she spoke, she placed the bowl in front of Gu Zhiyao.
Gu Zhiyao had just woken up and was seeing the nurse for the first time. The nurse seemed normal, just like any other nurse, but for some reason, Gu Zhiyao felt a strange sensation.
"What's wrong?" The nurse noticed her staring at her and smiled.
"What's your name?" Gu Zhiyao asked.
The nurse was taken aback, then gave her name as well.
Gu Zhiyao continued to ask her when she started working here, where she had worked before this job, and then asked about her family and financial situation.
The nurse initially smiled and responded, but gradually frowned. "I'm sorry, Ms. Gu, I don't think this is within my job scope?"
“I’m sorry, I’m just… a little curious. Actually, I have this problem, which has been going on for many years. It started when I was 20. Every time I’m hospitalized, I can’t help but ask the nurses. I’ve also seen a psychologist, who said it’s persecution complex, which may be related to something in my past. I’m always worried that someone is framing me. I hope you don’t mind.”
The nurse's expression changed again.
"You can leave the medicinal food there for now. I don't have much of an appetite right now. Why don't you eat it for me? Don't worry, I'll give you extra benefits," Gu Zhiyao added.
The nurse's expression changed drastically. She said, "No, Ms. Gu, I can't eat this. This is a medicinal meal specially prepared for you."
“Okay, let’s put it down then. Don’t worry, I won’t tell the doctor. We just need to cooperate,” Gu Zhiyao said.
The nurse's eyes flickered, but after secretly observing Gu Zhiyao for a while, she said, "Then I'll take it out first. This kind of medicinal food must be kept warm at all times. Let me know when you want to eat it."
Gu Zhiyao's heart stirred slightly. Looking at the nonchalant nurse, she thanked her, "Okay, thank you!"
The nurse left.
Gu Zhiyao continued to ponder for a moment, then picked up her phone and dialed Xiao Lin, asking him to help her investigate the nurse's situation.
Xiao Lin asked in surprise, "Did she do anything to you?"
"Not yet, it's just that I find it strange. Maybe it's because I just went through such a big accident, and it's affecting my mental state. But Brother Xiao Lin, I don't want to let any crisis slip by."
"Are you worried that Zheng Yuanxi and Wen Ya have bribed people at the hospital?"
"Ah."
"Okay, I'll have someone investigate right away."
"sorry to bother you."
"It's alright. Take care of yourself. Don't eat what she gave you for now. I'll arrange for another bodyguard to protect you secretly."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Xiao Lin." Gu Zhiyao didn't refuse and thanked him.
Xiao Lin gave a few more instructions and then hung up the phone.
In the evening, he brought Chenchen and Niuniu over.
Xiao Lin told them that her mother had encountered some accidents during her business trip and was injured, requiring her to be hospitalized for a few days.
Upon seeing her mother, Niu Niu rushed to the bedside, grabbed her mother's hand, and sobbed, "Mom, how are you feeling? Does your body still hurt? Why weren't you careful? You always teach me to be careful, how come you're the one who's careless? You can't have anything happen to you, otherwise what will I do? I can't lose my mom!"
Gu Zhiyao was once angry, disappointed, and heartbroken because her daughter favored He Yi.
I feel like I've wasted all those years spoiling this little girl!
But it turns out that deep down, her daughter still loved her and cared about her!
Gu Zhiyao looked at her daughter, who kept grabbing her hand and crying, and couldn't help but shed tears as well. Then she looked at her son. The little guy was a boy after all, and was being raised as the heir of the He family, so he naturally didn't cry as easily as his sister. But his eyes were also full of concern and worry.
Suddenly, Gu Zhiyao felt that all the hardships she had endured were worth it!
She hugged the siblings, one in each arm, to her chest and said, "Don't worry, my darlings, Mommy is fine. Mommy knows she was wrong and will never let this kind of accident happen again. Mommy will be fine, watch you grow up, and see you get married and start your own families. I'll be with you for the rest of my life."
"That's settled then. If Mommy doesn't behave, she'll be a little puppy, and Niu Niu will never talk to Mommy again!"
"Okay, definitely." Gu Zhiyao laughed and cried at the same time, glancing at her son from time to time, her heart filled with joy. This was the happiest moment since she woke up.
But just then, an uninvited guest barged in!
"Uncle He Yi?" Niu Niu exclaimed in surprise, then rushed over. "Is it really you? What are you doing here? Did you come to see my mother? You know my mother is injured?"
He Yi was also surprised to see his son and daughter. He was stunned at first, then slowly squatted down, subconsciously raised his hand to stroke Niu Niu's pretty little face, and replied, "Mmm."
Then, she looked at her son.
"Dad!" Chenchen called softly.
He Yi nodded again, then stood up and looked at Gu Zhiyao.
Gu Zhiyao's mood, which had finally improved, plummeted again. She frowned, clearly not wanting to see him.
Seeing Niu Niu eagerly chatting with He Yi made him feel even worse.
She was praising the little girl just now, but in the blink of an eye...
Thinking of this, Gu Zhiyao couldn't help but get angry and asked He Yi without any politeness, "What are you doing here? Mr. He, from now on I don't want to see you here. Leave!"
