Wen Yanqing did not have the time to blame himself when someone wanted to take advantage of the situation.
He returned to the ward and picked up an apple, peeling it slowly.
Lin Zhaonan patted his shoulder and left.
When he wasnât around just now, he didnât know what Mr. Lin and Lin Gantang were talking about. Now, he was muttering, âI feel that youâve been a little unlucky recently. No, I have to get someone to read your fortune.â
And Lin Gantangâs helpless expression.
He even wanted to hire fortune-tellers.
After a while, Gu Zhichuan came in. Wen Yanqing glanced at him and sneered to himself when he did not see Gu Zhichuan bring the flowers in.
âZhichuan is here,â Mr. Lin said calmly.
âUncle, Iâm here to see Gantang,â Gu Zhichuan said.
Mr. Lin glanced at Wen Yanqing and said, âItâs just a small injury. Thereâs nothing to look at. Youâve troubled yourself.â
Lin Gantang couldnât help but look at Mr. Lin. Heh, that wasnât what you said just now. You were so serious as if I was seriously ill. You didnât even let me get out of bed and walk around.
âItâs good that sheâs fine. Iâm just worried about Gantang.â Gu Zhichuan stood in front of Lin Gantang. Seeing her pale lips, he could not help but worry. âDoes it hurt?â
âIt doesnât hurt. I feel like I can be discharged now.â Lin Gantangâs expression was calm.
Mr. Lin looked at her. Tsk, you didnât say that just now. You were hurting everywhere and wanted others to treat you like a god.
Gu Zhichuan sat there for a while. He did not know what else to say other than to show concern for her injuries. It was only now that he realized that his understanding of Lin Gantang was pitifully little. He could not even find a single thing to start a conversation with.
He was afraid that he would say something wrong and that Lin Gantang would be unhappy if he did so.
Moreover, Mr. Lin was here, so there were many things that he could not say.
Hence, he left after sitting for a while. Wen Yanqing passed the apple to Lin Gantang. âIâm going back to change my clothes. Iâll come back later.â
Lin Gantang was surprised. She thought that she had to persuade him to leave.
âSure, you can rest at home while youâre at it. Besides, youâre not done at the office, right? There are nurses and Auntie Zhang here. You donât have to worry.â
âIâll go with you. I have something to tell you.â Mr. Lin got up with Wen Yanqing. He turned around and instructed Lin Gantang. âStay here. Iâll come over later.â
Lin Gantang didnât mind. âDad, you should go back and rest too. Iâm already an adult. You donât have to guard me.â
After they left, Lin Gantang took out her phone and started to watch dramas as she bit into the apple.
Itâs not like she was sick. Whatâs there to be pretentious about?
She searched for what she wanted to see but still couldnât find it. Ye Qiuqiuâs video request came in.
Lin Gantang subconsciously looked at the time. She was video-calling her now? Usually, this was her busiest time at work.
As soon as the call connected, the screen paused. Lin Gantang thought that her phone was stuck, but the other party suddenly said, âF*ck.
âHow did you become like this? Youâre hospitalized?â Ye Qiuqiu guessed as she observed what she saw through the small lens.
âHmm, Iâm a little injured. Why are you looking for me now? Is there something wrong?â Lin Gantang asked.
âItâs nothing. I wanted to tell you that Iâve already resigned.â Ye Qiuqiu stared at her. âItâs nothing. Whatâs wrong with you? How did you get injured?â
Lin Gantang said it simply. Ye Qiuqiu said, âWhy are you living so dangerously every day? To think I was envious that you were rich. Forget it now. Itâs safer to be poor.â
Lin Gantang chuckled. âNatural and man-made disasters wonât be avoided just because youâre poor. When youâre free, read more social news. Most of the accidents are caused by ordinary people.â
âF*ck, my heart hurts.â Ye Qiuqiu clutched her chest. âItâs bad enough that I donât have any money, yet youâre telling the truth..â
