Chapter 542: Not Spoiled

swered seriously."Tinglan went to see Jiagia this afternoon.""Okay."Shutinglan thought to herself that she was indeed slow on the uptake. Looking at Director Xiao's attitude towards Jiagia, he always...But when they got to the hospital, he didn't get out of the car for a long time. 。After sent him the hospital and ward number, she remembered to tell . 。Lu Yaoyao's heart ached upon hearing this, but she refused. "Don't let him in. I don't want to see him." 。She has been heartbroken these days. When she needed him the most, he didn't answer her calls. Now, she doesn't even want to see him. 。

"Understood" 。Actually, Gu Ruandong can't come now if you think about it, because the old man and Lu Kuò are 。Even if the doctor emphasized that she needed special care and didn't need family to watch over her, how could Mr. and Lu Kuo really leave her alone in the hospital for others to take care of So they stood outside the door, like two deities, 。The old man is in good health. He can sit for a whole day without feeling any backache or leg pain, even better than young people's stamina. 。And of course, Sister Hao and her assistant stayed outside the entire time, never leaving her side. 。

When it was 6 p.m. in the capital city during winter, the sky had already turned completely dark. 。By the time it was past nine o'clock in the evening, Lu Yaoyao had already fallen asleep. Grandpa and Lu Kuo were persuaded to go back by Hao Jie. After all, there was nothing wrong with her being asleep. 。Lu Kuo stayed at the hospital all night last night, he even has dark circles under his eyes. He really needs to go back and get a good rest. 。"I'm staying at the hospital, you don't have to worry. " 。"After seeing off Old Master and Lu Kuò, Hao Jie looked at her phone, feeling a little strange. The call from Gu Ruǎn Dong this morning seemed like an illusion. She hadn't contacted her all day, and she didn't even show up. She was too calm, wasn't she" 。

Lu Yaoyao had been insistent before bed, warning that if Gu Ruandong came, he wasn't to be let in. Turns out she was overthinking it; he never even came up. 。Lu Yaoyao had something on her mind and her wound hurt, so she didn't sleep well. Besides, she kept listening to the noises outside the door. 。There are some places where you wouldn't really want to see him, it's just a little sad. 。I woke up groggily in the middle of the night. In the dim light of the hospital room, I saw a dark figure sitting by my bed. My hand was being held by a pair of icy cold hands. I jumped in fright and fully awoke. 。"Yaoyao, it's me!" Gu Ruandong said in a low voice, his voice hoarse. 。"How did you get in here" I didn't want to acknowledge him, but the words slipped out anyway. Sister Hao couldn't have let him in. 。The window let in 。Her ward is on the 9th floor!

The room was silent, so quiet that Lu Yaoyao could almost hear her own heartbeat. She didn't speak, silently retracting her hand, a bit of a temper. 。Heartbroken and wronged, she had so many people around her who cared about her from last night to tonight, yet the one person she wanted to see most was absent. 。"I'm sorry" 。"Gu Ruandong's voice came faintly, under the dim light, he reached out and touched her face. So close, his hand was icy cold, even his breath was chilling." 。Lu Yaoyao turned her face away, not letting him touch her. But after turning her head, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes and streamed down constantly. She hadn't shed a single tear since she came out of the operating room, but seeing Gu Ruandong made her feel wronged and wanted to cry, unable to control herself. 。Gu Ruandong reached out and pulled her into his arms. In the darkness, he lowered his head to kiss her tears, to kiss her lips. His lips were always cold. 。

"I'm sorry" 。He murmured an apology, over and over. 。I saw the news on the plane's screen this morning, and my heart has been aching all day.

I have never said these three words to anyone in my life, only to her. >>> 。His voice was raspy, coming from deep within his chest, like he had suffered a deeper wound than she had. 。The ward was unnaturally quiet. He dared not make a big move, afraid of touching her injuries. He only leaned down to wipe away her tears, kissing her eyes and lips. 。Lu Yaoyao could feel his heartache and guilt. Since he arrived, most of her anger had dissipated, leaving only a sense of grievance. 。。

"Not smelly" 。To prove his point, he cupped her face in his hands and kissed her hair repeatedly. 。Lu Yaoyao felt like she was pathetic. Before, no matter how heartbroken or angry she was, his one kiss had completely dissipated all of it, leaving not a trace. 。After crying enough, she could only complain: “When I called you then, you didn't answer” 。"

It was my mistake.

I will make sure to keep my phone with me from now on." 。He was so sincere in his apology that she was left speechless. 。"Is your foot still hurting" he asked. 。"Ouch!" she replied with a pitiful look, pleased to see the concern in his expression. 。He held her hand and fell silent. His hand was still icy cold, with no warmth at all. After a moment of thought, she said again: "Actually, it doesn't hurt much anymore." 。He held her hand tightly, bringing it to his lips and kissing it: “Mmm, sleep well, I’ll be right here with you.” 。"Come here and cuddle with me so we can sleep." 。The bed is big enough. 。He shook his head and refused: "Wait until it's ready" 。“The main concern is touching her wounds, so I’m being very restrained. Otherwise, I just want to hold her tightly right now.” 。With him by her side, Lu Yao yao quickly fell asleep. She slept soundly and even the pain in her feet felt much less intense. 。Dong held her hand to his lips, rubbing it gently. This afternoon, he had sat in the car for hours, reminiscing about many things from the past. 。When she was very young, he caused her to bleed from a head injury. At the time, while crying and asking him if she would die, she also remembered to ask him if her brother was hurt and in pain. He had always fought with children outside the courtyard since he was little, his body was always bruised and battered. But no one ever asked him if he was in pain, not even his parents. They only complained about why he went to fight again. If someone complained to them, they would beat him again. 。Only she, a tiny and adorable little thing, would ask him if he was hurt. And when the adults scolded him, she would step in and say it wasn't her brother's fault. 。In the courtyard, the Lu family forbade her from associating with him. Perhaps she had already forgotten, but every time he returned home bruised and battered, she would secretly slip him a lollipop and say: "Brother, eat candy so it won't hurt." 。

The friendships of youth are the most precious. Though later, after his family moved away due to trouble and they lost contact, he struggled in this society, witnessed countless dark sides of human nature and countless dirty schemes. He even found himself deeply involved in them, but deep down, there was always a clean and pure warmth reminding him that he wasn't such a bad person. 。This tiny sliver of belief kept him from straying too far, countless times when faced with temptation or at crossroads. 。To him, she wasn't salvation, but a street lamp. Unbeknownst to her, someone had been striving to walk the righteous path because of her. 。Gu Ruandong is not someone who likes to put his feelings into words; his actions speak louder than words. He's also not someone who would dwell on these things or analyze his own heart. Just this afternoon, sitting in the car, recalling past events, he felt a sense of powerlessness. 。She is too wealthy, lacking neither money nor love. 。When he was a child, he was hurt and surrounded by people. They hugged him and comforted him, treating his wound. He could only be an outsider in that scene. 。

And this time, it was the same. She got hurt, and the Lu family could mobilize the best resources and provide the best care in the first place. As for him, he could still do nothing, nor did he need to. He remained an outsider.When they parted ways at the airport, he said to the two of them..."The food critic's final report, we'll discuss it at the morning meeting. Please refine it some more."This was Shu Tinglan's first pr...
