However, since Qin Yize and his team arrived at the Imperial Capital, he had to undergo a full-body examination.
So, they temporarily couldn’t meet.
Even though they couldn’t meet, everyone was relieved to know that he was safe and sound.
By then, the military aircraft had already landed at a military airport in the Imperial Capital and slowly descended.
Then they began to act in an orderly and anxious manner.
The military vehicle carrying Qin Yize headed towards the base headquarters hospital.
There were the best doctors there.
Gu Qiaoqiao had initially planned to return to the Gu Family.
However, unexpectedly, Qin Yize mentioned he felt dizzy as he disembarked from the plane.
Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t know whether it was true or false, but she couldn’t rest easy and decided to accompany Qin Yize to the hospital.
First, they operated on his injured leg and removed the bullet.
Fortunately, the bullet hadn’t caused Qin Yize any fatal injuries.
So, it was a minor surgery.
Next, under the joint examination of experts and the chief physician, amidst incredulous sounds, it was confirmed that Qin Yize’s basic health indicators were normal.
However, some data would take a few more days to be available.
Thus, Qin Yize was admitted to the hospital.
By this time, it was already midnight.
Naturally, Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t leave.
Qin Yize’s hospital room was quite spacious.
The accompanying bed was also clean and tidy.
When Gu Qiaoqiao entered, Qin Yize was lying on the hospital bed, and his eyes instantly lit up when he saw it was her.
It seemed he had been waiting for her.
Immediately, Qin Yize gestured with his hand and said softly, "Qiaoqiao, come here."
Gu Qiaoqiao smiled and walked towards Qin Yize.
Then she placed the thermos on the bedside table, sat down, and asked Qin Yize, "How are you feeling, does your head hurt, does your leg hurt?"
Qin Yize gazed at Gu Qiaoqiao and reached out his hand towards her.
Gu Qiaoqiao hesitated for a moment, then placed her hand on his warm, large hand, but wasn’t prepared when Qin Yize gently pulled, causing her to fall onto him.
With a quick scoop, Qin Yize held Gu Qiaoqiao tight and said hoarsely, "Qiaoqiao, you wouldn’t start ignoring me now that we’re back in the Imperial Capital, would you?"
Gu Qiaoqiao lay on Qin Yize’s body. Such intimacy was still somewhat unfamiliar to her, and she quickly said, "Be careful, you’re still injured?"
Qin Yize, unconcerned, said, "It’s fine, my hands aren’t injured." Then he looked at Gu Qiaoqiao very seriously and asked, "Qiaoqiao, tell me, you won’t leave me again, will you?"
Their eyes met, tender emotions swirling...
Gu Qiaoqiao hesitated for a moment, then under Qin Yize’s hopeful gaze, she slowly nodded. "I won’t!"
Qin Yize’s smile bloomed like a garden full of flowers.
But Gu Qiaoqiao said, "However..."
Qin Yize quickly interrupted, "There are no ’howevers’ for now, we can talk about this tomorrow."
Then he continued, "Qiaoqiao, go get some rest, you’ve been through a lot these past few days..."
After speaking, Qin Yize reluctantly let go of Gu Qiaoqiao and said softly, "Qiaoqiao, even though saying thank you feels a bit unfamiliar, I still want to thank you for coming to find me, but don’t do it again next time, okay..."
Gu Qiaoqiao got up from Qin Yize’s body, fixed his blanket, and pulled her hand from his warm, firm grasp.
Standing beside the bed looking at Qin Yize, she said, "Then you need to ensure you’ll always be fine."
Qin Yize thought for a moment, nodded, and said earnestly, "Yes, I’ll do my best to ensure that!"
Gu Qiaoqiao looked at Qin Yize.
Both knew that this was not an easy topic to discuss.
