The emergency doctor, fully convinced, bowed deeply and went to the mortuary to reflect on himself.
The other chief doctors, noticing Bao Gucheng’s grim expression, didn’t dare disturb him more: "Commander Bao, Miss Xi, the patient’s condition is stable. We’ll take our leave for now. Call us anytime if you need anything!"
Zuzi: "Alright, see you around, kids."
The chief doctors were so shocked they nearly tripped over the threshold: "..."
No, no, no, they didn’t want to see her again. After all, next time, it might be brain flower soup instead of lotus root soup, how could they swallow it?
Bao Gucheng wrapped his arm around Zuzi, helping her smooth her long hair: "Why do you like calling them kids?"
Zuzi: "Hmm? Does Xiao Chenger think it’s inappropriate?"
Bao Gucheng: "No, not really." He just didn’t want others looking at you with strange eyes.
Zuzi tilted her small face and thought for a moment: "Okay, as you say, Xiao Chenger. I won’t call them kids anymore."
Then, she raised her voice and waved farewell to the old men: "See you around, little friends!"
A group of old men scurried away faster than rabbits: "..."
Bao Gucheng helplessly stroked her black, cascading tresses at her temples: "Forget it. As long as Miss Zuzi is happy."
He always knew she was uniquely special and couldn’t be judged by ordinary standards.
"Xiao Chenger, it seems you have to leave now." Zuzi reminded him seriously.
Bao Gucheng’s Adam’s apple bobbed.
He had silenced his phone, but it had vibrated many times. He was well aware that the capital needed him back. The unfinished meeting from last night had to be continued this morning, and he needed to inspect the cemetery where the martyrs, including Sishang, were to be buried. Plus, he was scheduled to meet the Old President’s attending doctor today...
Originally, tonight’s plan was to squeeze in a date with her.
But with Xi Rubao’s suicide attempt, the date was thwarted, spending the whole night at the hospital, under so many watchful eyes that even a kiss was difficult.
Bao Gucheng couldn’t help but slide his large hand down from her long hair, clasping the back of her head to draw her closer.
With only a sleeping Xi Rubao in the operating room...
A parting kiss should be allowed to be bold, right?
As their lips barely touched each other, the operating room door was suddenly gently pushed open.
Bao Gucheng’s kiss was interrupted, pressing Zuzi’s small head into his embrace, turning back with a hint of anger: "Get out!"
Could tonight allow him to tenderly love his little woman in peace?
When he saw who it was, the hostility on him receded slightly, speaking softly: "Mrs. Xi?"
Gu Qiusha, in a daze, walked in slowly and with difficulty.
Overwhelmed with thoughts, she initially didn’t hear Bao Gucheng’s angry shout, only looking up resolutely at his words "Mrs. Xi" to declare: "I am not Mrs. Xi, please call me Ms. Gu."
Just now, after stepping out of Xi Yuanshan’s ward, she gathered the last of her strength to have the proxy lawyer deliver the divorce agreement that had been prepared long ago.
She originally wanted to press Xi Yuanshan to sign immediately, but considering Xi Rubao still needed a blood transfusion, she couldn’t waste valuable time on that scumbag Xi Yuanshan, so she came to Xi Rubao’s operating room first.
"Ms. Gu." Bao Gucheng complied easily, treating Gu Qiusha with utmost politeness, "Xi Rubao’s condition is stable now, and the blood bank has enough matching supply, so you don’t need to give blood anymore. Perhaps... it would be best if you went home to rest for a while?"
Even if she was to be his future mother-in-law, polite he may be, he absolutely had to gently send her away at this moment.
Otherwise, what, gnaw on her daughter in front of her?
