Chapter 366 - 366: Make a lot to Repay You

Song Ling watched intently as Gu Dai and Fu Nan interacted.

Even standing at the door, he could tell from the aroma that the food was personally made by Gu Dai.

Yet, he couldn’t fathom why she would now care for Fu Nan when she once only tended to him.

This kind of treatment used to be his privilege alone. Now, Gu Dai, once cold towards him, showed kindness to others and was always surrounded by different men.

But he had no right to reproach her, having divorced her.

“Wow, what a good-looking couple. The woman is beautiful, the man handsome. They’re such a pleasing sight.”

“Let’s not disturb them. We’ll check the other wards first and return later.”

Hearing the nurses’ whispers, Song Ling grew even more irritated. He glared at them and then strode away.

Inside the ward.

Fu Nan blushed, his ears turning red, and whispered, “Miss Gu Dai, I can eat on my own.”

Gu Dai replied, “Your hand is injured to the bone. Don’t be stubborn. Eat up.”

Fu Nan, his face still flushed, started to tear up.

Gu Dai asked, “What’s wrong?”

Fu Nan, avoiding eye contact, whispered, “It’s so delicious.”

Gu Dai spoke earnestly, “Fu Nan, I’m not a fool. If there’s something on your mind, just tell me. Don’t keep it inside.”

Tears flowed more freely from Fu Nan’s eyes. Crying, he said, “Miss Gu Dai, thank you. Ever since my mother left, I haven’t had such delicious food. And no one’s protected me like this. I feel so happy now.”

Fu Nan went on to share numerous childhood memories with his mother until the wontons were finished. Realizing he had spoken at length, he nervously said, “Miss Gu Dai, I must have bored you with my ramblings. Sorry for bothering you…”

Gu Dai, coming back to the present, shook her head and softly said, “You didn’t bother me. It felt very warm.”

As she listened to Fu Nan, she couldn’t help but recall scenes of her childhood, clinging to her parents, momentarily lost in thought.

Looking at Fu Nan again, her gaze filled with compassion as she assured, “Don’t worry, no one will bully you again. Once you’ve recovered, continue shining on stage. Your mother, watching from heaven, will surely be proud of you.”

Fu Nan’s eyes sparkled as he nodded firmly, “Yes!”

Gu Dai then noticed Fu Nan’s glances. She initiated, “Is there something you want to ask?”

Fu Nan hesitated, then softly said, “Actually, I was conscious the first time you came. I just couldn’t open my eyes. When you said you’d stand up for me, I was worried you’d get hurt. Maybe you shouldn’t have gone. I was thinking that once I become successful, I’ll use my ability to slap their faces.”

Gu Dai, taken aback, then pretended to be troubled, “But I’ve already taught them a lesson. What should we do now?”

Fu Nan quickly asked, “Miss Gu Dai, are you hurt? I can call for help, I…”

Gu Dai stopped him, smiling, “Don’t worry, I’m fine. I dealt with them quickly.”

Fu Nan, though unaware of Gu Dai’s true capabilities, held a steadfast belief in her exceptional prowess. Consequently, upon hearing her words, he felt a sigh of relief escape him.

He reflected on her earlier question and earnestly replied, “Miss Gu Dai, since you’ve avenged me, I’ll continue to work hard. I’ll stand on the biggest stages and make lots of money to repay you!”

Meanwhile, in another ward.

Jiang Yue’s smile froze as she looked at the wontons brought by Song Ling.

She forced herself to eat a few, then softly said, “Brother Song Ling, did you forget I don’t like wontons?”

Song Ling, his mind elsewhere, glanced at her absently and replied half-heartedly. He chuckled coldly, muttering, “Maybe she likes them, why else would she make them for someone else…”

Jiang Yue’s eyes darkened slightly. Although she didn’t know who Song Ling was referring to, she guessed it might be Gu Dai.

Suppressing her irritation, Jiang Yue looked at Song Ling and gently began, “Brother Song Ling, I…”

Song Ling cut her off, coldly saying, “The nurse said you’ve been resting well these past days and your wounds are healing nicely. Since you’re fine, I’ll head back to the office to work..”
