Translator: _Min_ |
After Song Yu finished speaking and noticed that Gu Dai’s expression remained unchanged, she hastily continued, “Sister Gu Dai, I’ve recognized my past mistakes and I want to apologize to you. I’m sorry!”
Gu Dai looked at Song Yu with a complex expression in her eyes.
Seeing that Gu Dai was looking at her, Song Yu seemed encouraged, “Sister Gu Dai, I promise I will listen to everything you say from now on. Whatever you ask of me, I’ll do it! Also, my mom has realized her mistakes as well. You…”
Wang Lan interrupted Song Yu, “I did not say that.”
Song Yu frowned, “Mom!”
Wang Lan huffed coldly. Although she now saw Gu Dai in a positive light, admitting her mistakes was another matter entirely…
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
She would never engage in such a humiliating act.
Annoyed, Song Yu stamped her foot, “Mom, have you forgotten that Sister Gu Dai was the one who rescued us from the fire? Even if it’s just out of gratitude…”
Gu Dai’s cool voice interrupted, “The patient needs to rest. Please leave.”
Song Yu closed her mouth sheepishly and glanced at Su Ting on the bed. Before leaving the ward, she couldn’t help but say, “Sister Gu Dai, my brother really likes you. Please give him another chance. He…”
Seeing Su Ting’s eyelashes quiver, Gu Dai couldn’t help but grip his hand excitedly, whispering, “Su Ting, you’re waking up, aren’t you?”
Caught off guard by this scene, Song Yu instinctively wanted to say something.
Lu Feng quickly intervened, “I have things to take care of later. If you’re not here for a follow-up, then let’s not bother.”
Hearing this, Wang Lan pulled Song Yu along, “A follow-up, a follow-up. We’ll do it now.”
Song Yu swallowed the words she was about to say.
Seeing no further response from Su Ting, Gu Dai’s eyes drooped in disappointment, “Perhaps it was just my imagination.”
“No, it wasn’t your imagination…”
Su Ting spoke in a weak voice.
Startled, Gu Dai’s heart raced as tears welled up in her eyes. Seeing Su Ting open his eyes, she asked in disbelief, “You’re really awake?”
Su Ting offered a pale smile, “Yes, I’m awake.”
Tears streamed down Gu Dai’s face even more as she thought about checking on Su Ting’s condition.
But, overwhelmed with emotion, her mind was a blur, preventing her from calming down.
She quickly said, “I’ll go find a doctor to check on you.”
Su Ting wanted to say it wasn’t necessary, but before he could speak, Gu Dai had already dashed off like the wind.
Seeing this, he smiled helplessly.
Gu Dai watched intently as the doctor examined Su Ting, her expression filled with anxiety.
The doctor carefully examined him and then said, “Mr. Su’s surgery went very smoothly, and he has been well taken care of during this time. He’s recovered quite well, though he’s still a bit weak.”
Hearing this, Gu Dai promptly instructed the chefs to enhance the nutritional value of the meals.
After the doctor left the ward, she breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from her face, “Chairwoman Gu’s presence is too intimidating. I was nearly scared to death.”
Gu Dai took out silver needles and silently inserted them into Su Ting’s acupuncture points.
Su Ting immediately sensed something was amiss and looked nervously at Gu
Dai, his lips quivering as he softly called out, “Daidai…”
Gu Dai coldly responded, “Hmm.”
Su Ting was puzzled. Gu Dai had been so happy to see him awake, why had she suddenly become so distant?
After pondering, a possibility flashed through his mind.
Feeling guilty, Su Ting looked at Gu Dai, then quickly lowered his head. After a few moments, Gu Dai had already retracted the needles and moved to her desk to work.
Seeing this, Su Ting quickly said, “Daidai, I know I was wrong.”
Gu Dai stopped her movements and looked at Su Ting, “What did you do wrong?”
Su Ting turned his head away, murmuring, “I shouldn’t have faced so many people alone.”
Gu Dai took a deep breath, “Especially in such a dangerous situation!”
Su Ting earnestly promised, “I won’t do anything that puts me in danger again.”
Gu Dai nodded in approval, “We should have left together. Even if we couldn’t, you should have let me stay. We would face it together.”
Su Ting agreed, “Yes!”
Gu Dai nodded in satisfaction, but suddenly sensed something was amiss. She slightly narrowed her eyes and turned to look at Su Ting, who was hiding his face..
