He directly called the duty nurse and began to arrange for Wu Lijuan’s discharge from the hospital.

Wu Lijuan was somewhat puzzled.

“Yuanzhou, my illness hasn’t fully recovered yet. The doctor said I need to be hospitalized for another half a month for later observation.”

Yet, Gu Yuanzhou had his own ideas.

“Auntie, under complex medical conditions, a comprehensive diagnosis from multiple hospitals is necessary! We’re not going home, but transferring you to another hospital for a second opinion.”

Gu Yuanzhou was very good at communicating.

It barely took him any effort to persuade Wu Lijuan.

I pulled him to the side, trying my best to prevent him

“Gu Yuanzhou, what are you doing? My aunt was getting better treatment here, and rashly transferring her can inhibit her recovery.”

Indeed, Ding Yinuo had been her primary doctor up to this point.

Wu Lijuan was recovering well, and now the risk of a hospital transfer was high.

I always felt Gu Yuanzhou was trying to deceive me.

Gu Yuanzhou squinted at me for a long time.

“During a trial, both parties’ lawyers must be present, making their respective arguments, presenting both sides of the case so the judge can determine who is right. You claim Wu Lijuan was poisoned, but this is only one perspective. If you want me to believe you, we need a diagnosis from another hospital.”

“Gu Yuanzhou, even Old Ma admitted that Ye Mengyan committed the crime, are you still trying to whitewash her?”

“No, who committed the crime isn’t important. What’s important is Wu Lijuan’s health.”

His words left me unable to retort.

“Alright then!”

After arranging Wu Lijuan’s discharge process, Gu Yuanzhou directly transported her to another private hospital.

After completing the hospitalization procedures there, it was already past nine o’clock in the evening.

Gu Yuanzhou spent another half an hour talking to the primary physician at that hospital.

During this process, I stood by Gu Yuanzhou’s side the whole time, wary of any tricks he could pull.

Everything he did revolved around Wu Lijuan’s condition, just as he said.

When the discussion ended, the doctor said it would take two or three days for the results of the tests to come out.

After leaving the hospital, my phone kept ringing.

My phone was set to emit a regular ringtone for all calls except one.

Only calls from Ding Yinuo triggered a piano chord titled “Dream Wedding”.

When I heard this song, I knew it was a call from Ding Yinuo.

“Why aren’t you answering the phone?”

Gu Yuanzhou heard the ringtone, he turned to look at me quizzically.

“Oh, President Gu, today’s schedule is over and I have something else to take care of, so I need to leave.”

“What’s the rush? Let’s grab a meal first!”

Gu Yuanzhou lit a cigarette, his gaze deeply fixed on me.

“President Gu  ”

“Don’t turn me down! You’ll miss a lot if you do.”

He did not give me a chance to refuse and directly opened the car door.

It had started to drizzle at some point.

My hair was slightly damp from the rain and I instinctively bent down to get into the car.

Gu Yuanzhou started the car.

Evening fell upon the city, amidst the light rain, umbrellas of various colors filled the streets in the distance, like blooms in the mist.

Night came, and people returned home.

Where was home for me?

I was unaware when the car stopped outside a restaurant.

As I was getting out of the car, Gu Yuanzhou took my hand.

His slightly damp hand clasping mine, he held a black umbrella with his other hand, leading me from the parking lot onto the restaurant steps.

Throughout this, I tried to pull my hand back a few times, but he held on tightly.

Perhaps because of the rain earlier, I sneezed once I entered the restaurant.

After we sat down, Gu Yuanzhou went to the kitchen and brought me a bowl of ginger soup.

“It’s autumn now, the rain is a bit chilly, remember to dress warmly!”

The warmth of his tone seemed to, for a moment, break all distances between us and take us back to the old days.

I looked at him incredulously again, but I still pretended to be calm and distant.

“Thanks for your concern, President Gu, I will take care of myself.”

“Mengyan moved out of Maple Mansion. If you don’t come back, it becomes unbelievably quiet at night. A few days ago, I heard the crying of night birds all night long.”

This is a Japanese restaurant; probably because it was raining, there were a surprisingly few customers.

The staff’s steps were very light. If it weren’t for the soft music, I would have felt as if I was on a date alone with Gu Yuanzhou.

“President Gu, are you suffering from insomnia?”

I picked up a piece of raw fish and put it in my mouth.

His eyes narrowed as he looked at me, “Why did you investigate Wu Lijuan’s poisoning case?”

“Because, I want President Gu to know what kind of person Ye Mengyan is?”

Gu Yuanzhou shook his wine glass gently. He didn’t accept my words,

“It was because of Ding Yinuo, wasn’t it? By coincidence, Ding Yinuo just happened to be at that hospital.”

“Think what you like!”

I was sipping the soup in the bowl.

“Are you close with Wu Lijuan? Did she tell you something?”

In fact, I was trying hard to hide my identity.

Wu Lijuan didn’t recognize the real me, and Gu Yuanzhou probably wouldn’t find out either.

“President Gu, the raw fish tonight is good, you should try it.”

“Regarding the Song family, do you have anything to say?”

Gu Yuanzhou’s words always carry a prying tone. I chuckled,

“President Gu, Mr. Song and Mrs. Song are essentially your in-laws. In my opinion, shouldn’t you be taking good care of them?”

A ripple appeared in Gu Yuanzhou’s eyes. He was silent for a moment,

“Eat quickly. I’m going to take you somewhere later!”

The phone rang again. I ate the last piece of sushi and picked it up to look.

It was a text message from Ding Yinuo.

“It’s raining so hard outside, where are you?”

To keep Ding Yinuo from worrying, I texted him back, “I’m dining out, no need to worry about me.”

Then he sent another text message, “I’ll wait for you at Xishan Residence tonight!”

I thought for a while and sent him back a smiley face. In fact, I was not sure whether I would be able to make it tonight.

After finishing the Japanese hot pot, I felt warmer. Gu Yuanzhou paid the bill. As we were leaving, he took off his jacket and draped it over me.

I always had a faint feeling that Gu Yuanzhou’s attitude towards me was a bit too intimate.

It exceeded the distance between a boss and an employee

The more he acted like this, the more I felt his guilt. He was deliberately being nice to me in order to try and wear down my prejudice against Ye Mengyan.

But living again, I had already grown a heart cold as iron.

Faced with his solicitousness, I chose to reject it. I took off his jacket and stuffed it into his hands, then walked into the rain alone.

After getting into the car, Gu Yuanzhou hummed a little. Regarding my actions, he said indifferently, “Childish!”

I didn’t explain, but took a tissue to wipe the water droplets off my cheek, “President Gu, it’s getting late. Maybe we should go tomorrow!”

“This is a place you have to visit!”

Given his insistence, I could only accompany him until the end.

At this point, it was already past ten o’clock at night.

He first drove me to the Ginseng Store on Huaxi Road

This time of night, the store had already closed.

But the light in the store was still shining. Gu Yuanzhou parked the car and smoked a cigarette. He stared at the Ginseng Store for a long time.

“You found the surveillance video here, didn’t you?”
