In the hospital ward.
Xu Weilai was drinking red bean porridge when she saw that Gu Yu was only looking at her without eating. She was displeased and pouted in mock anger. “You have to eat some too.”
She couldn’t keep asking him to take care of her body while he neglected his own. Now that his grandfather was in such a state and needed them the most, he and she both had to be well!
As she spoke, she scooped up a spoonful of red bean porridge and brought it directly to his mouth. “Ah——.”
Gu Yu smiled helplessly and pointed at her forehead. He opened his mouth and ate the spoonful of red bean porridge.
The phone on the table suddenly vibrated a few times. Gu Yu nonchanatly picked it up. When he saw the caller ID, he threw the phone back on the table without any expression and ignored it.
Xu Weilai picked up the churro and tore it in half. She took a bite and handed the other half to Gu Yu while asking, “Aren’t you going to pick it up?”
“There’s no need to pick it up,” Gu Yu replied lazily. When he saw the churro she handed him, he didn’t pick it up. Instead, enjoying the feeling of her feeding him, he took a bite while she held it.
The phone vibrated for a while and automatically hung up. But soon, it vibrated again.
A hint of impatience appeared in Gu Yu’s eyes. However, his gaze towards Xu Weilai was still gentle. He said, “You eat first. I need to take a call.”
“Okay.”
Gu Yu picked up the phone, stood up, and his long legs walked over to the window. He slid his finger on the screen to the receiver and put it to his ear. He said coldly, “What’s the matter?”
Xu Weilai didn’t know what was said on the other end, but when she looked up at Gu Yu, she saw that his expression seemed to be getting colder and colder, and there was a hostile aura all over him.
In just an instant, he completely restrained himself, making her think that what she saw just now was just an illusion.
A few minutes later, Gu Yu ended the call and turned around to walk back. He didn’t sit down to continue eating breakfast with her, but said, “I have to go back to the company. I’ll get Assistant Lin to send you back home to rest. Don’t worry, Auntie Lin will be here soon.”
Xu Weilai quickly shook her head. “I’ve rested enough. You go and do your work. I can watch over Grandpa.”
“Xu Weilai… ” Clearly disapproving, Gu Yu frowned.
She immediately raised her hand to make an oath, “If I feel tired, I won’t force myself. I’ll automatically go back to rest. Just let me stay here to spend more time with Grandpa and talk to him. You know, at times like this, hearing the words of a familiar person might be able to wake him up.”
Just like when he had been in a coma after the car accident, she had also talked to him relentlessly every day. In the end, she had woken him up!
Gu Yu looked at her silently for awhile. Unable to dissuade her, he relented. “Only in the morning. Go back and rest in the afternoon.”
“Okay!”
Gu Yu’s big palm gently stroked her head, then he raised his foot and strode out of the ward.
–
In the Gu Corporation’s CEO office.
When Gu Yu and Assistant Lin entered the office, they immediately saw Gu Xiong sitting behind the wide desk on the seat that belonged solely to the CEO.
Ever since Gu Xiong was forced to hand over shares of the Gu Corporation and was completely removed from the Gu Corporation, he was no longer allowed to enter the Gu Corporation’s building.
Unexpectedly, not only did he manage to enter the Gu Corporation’s building today, he also even swaggered into the CEO’s office and sat in Gu Yu’s seat?
How could he be so brazen?
Assistant Lin took a step forward and berated, “Gu Xiong, do you have the right to sit in this seat?”
