“Thank you, Ranran.”

Only after Wen Ran left the office did Zhou Lin follow her out.

Li Qian came face to face with them, holding several boxes of medicine and injections. Seeing Wen Ran and Zhou Lin leaving together, she asked in surprise, “Ranran, where are you going?”

Wen Ran glanced at the medicines in her hand and spoke gently, “I’m taking

Zhou Lin to the hospital, and I’m going to talk to my brother about something,

I will be back soon.”

There was a bit of traffic on the way, and by the time Wen Ran and Zhou Lin arrived at the hospital, an hour had passed.

“Ranran, you don’t need to accompany me for the check-up. I can go by myself.”

After entering the hospital, Zhou Lin said with a smile to Wen Ran. She was afraid that if she continued to let Wen Ran accompany her, she might slip up and reveal that it was actually MO Xiuchen who had arranged for her to leave.

Wen Ran nodded, speaking calmly, “Alright, you go for the check-up yourself. I will go find Older Brother Gu. I will see you off when you leave.”

“No need. I will contact you when I get to the new place and get settled.”

Zhou Lin instinctively refused. She told Wen Ran that she was going to another city and didn’t mention going abroad. But MO Xiuchen’s arrangements included going abroad, and she had promised MO Xiuchen not to let Wen Ran know about these things.

“You go and get the check-up first, we’ll talk later.”

A touch of sharpness flickered in Wen Ran’s eyes. Her expression remained calm as she instructed Zhou Lin, then she turned and entered the elevator.

Gu Kai just finished a surgery and Wen Ran bumped into him in the corridor. He was still in his surgical gown, with undried sweat on his forehead and fatigue lingering between his brows, which indicated the duration and difficulty of the surgery.

There were two doctors following him, and the three of them seemed to be talking about something. He raised his head and saw Wen Ran, his eyes lighting up instantly. He called out “Ranran!” cheerfully and quickened his pace towards her.

Wen Ran turned her head and saw him approaching. Her face broke out in a smile as she waited for him a meter away from his office door.

“Ranran, why are you at the hospital? Are you here to see your brother?”

The tiredness in Gu Kai’s face was replaced by joy, and a warmth spread in his eyes as he looked at her tenderly.

“Zhou Lin is having a check-up and I happened to be free, so I brought her here. Older Brother Gu, did you just finish a surgery?”

Gu Kai nodded and exhaled deeply, “From nine in the morning until now, I only had a short break during lunch. If vou came a bit earlier. vou wouldn’t have

been able to find me. Let’s go in and talk.”

He swung his arm over her shoulder and gently nudged her into his office. “Ranran, what do you want to drink? A beverage or plain boiled water.” “Boiled water. With this weather, I don’t really like drinking cold stuff.”

Wen Ran sat down on the sofa and watched as Gu Kai poured her a glass of boiled water. He then grabbed a bottle of beverage, twisted off the cap, and drank down half the bottle before he finally came back to her, saying, “You girls, drinking hot stuff is good for the body in winter. I like cold stuff. Today, something happened during surgery, and I worked up a sweat. I didn’t even have time to drink water.”

“So, was the surgery successful?”

The worry flickered in Wen Ran’s eyes. Gu Kai was the top neurosurgeon, especially recently when Director Gu was not at the hospital, he was the one who handled all the difficult surgeries.

Gu Kai raised his eyebrows, smiling confidently and proudly, “Of course! With me here, how could it not be successful?”

He sat down on the sofa opposite Wen Ran, leaned back in his chair, and lounged comfortably as if she were not a guest at all. “Ranran, did you come to see me about something?”

Wen Ran smiled playfully, “Do I need to have a reason to come see you? Can’t I come see you, Doctor Gu, just because I want to?”

“Haha, sure, I’d be happy if you came to see me every day.”

Gu Kai laughed heartily. What he really wanted to say, was that he would be truly happy if Wen Ran moved into his house, so he could see her every day.

Yet, he could only keep these thoughts to himself, at least for now. If he blurted them out, he feared he might scare off this shrewd girl.

Wen Ran cradled the cup with her hands and waited until Gu Kai stopped laughing before she spoke, “Older Brother Gu, there is something I need your help with.”

Gu Kai stopped laughing and looked at her somewhat hesitant expression, teasingly responded, “I knew it, ‘no one goes to the temple for nothing’. Don’t stand on ceremony with me, just say it. As long as I can help you, whether it’s going over mountains or through fire, I promise not to even wrinkle my brows.”

The tension and hesitation in Wen Ran’s heart were dispelled by his humorous words. A smile once again bloomed in her eyes. She came straight to the point, “I remember you once told me that we didn’t know if Xiuchen’s illness was cured. Now that his illness is cured, does it mean he is healthy?”

Gu Kai was slightly taken aback by Wen Ran’s words.

As observant as he was, Gu Kai quickly guessed what Wen Ran might say next when she started to talk. Remembering that few days ago, MO Xiuchen came for a ‘check-up’ and left the hospital with an infertility diagnosis report, a surge of indescribable emotions filled him, tinged slightly bitter.

Wen Ran observed Gu Kai’s momentary lapse and blinked in confusion, she softly called out, “Older Brother Gu!”

Gu Kai pulled himself together, smiled, and said kindly, “Correct, logically speaking, since his illness has been cured, he should be healthy.”

Hearing this, Wen Ran was delighted and blurted out, “So that means…he can have children now?”

Actually, she didn’t know why, but she found it less nerve-wracking to speak directly and frankly to Gu Kai even on this matter. If it were Qin Mu or Luo Haofeng, she definitely wouldn’t be this direct and straightforward.

Perhaps it was because Gu Kai was a doctor, or because he had been treating her like an older brother.

Without realizing it, she had placed him on the same level as her older brother Wen Jin, and hence, saying these things to him didn’t make her feel awkward.

Gu Kai looked at Wen Ran in disbelief and laughing said, “Ranran, why are you in such a hurry to have a child? Do you fear Xiuchen will change his heart one day, or is there something that Xiuchen is doing to make you uneasy?” Wen Ran shook her head with a smile. “Neither. It’s Dreciselv because he is not the kind of flirtatious man that I completely believe I can spend a lifetime with him, therefore I’m thinking of having a child.”

She paused for a moment before she continued, her voice filled with a mix of tenderness and empathy, “Xiuchen’s childhood was too lonely. Unlike me who grew up in a happy family with loving parents and brother. I want to give him a child so we can have a complete family and a complete happiness.”

Wen Ran’s mood fluctuated because of MO Xiuchen and she didn’t notice the pain that flashed in Gu Kai’s eyes when she said that she had grown up in a happy family with loving parents and a brother.

In Wen Ran’s mind, Mr. and Mrs. Wen Hongrui were her birth parents, and Wen Jin was her birth brother. Her childhood was indeed much happier than MO Xiuchen’s.

Gu Kai should have been happy, but his heart overflowed with sorrow. Ranran was his biological sister, yet he didn’t have the chance to accompany her growing up. As she expressed her regret and sorrow for Xiuchen’s lacking childhood, the pain in Gu Kai’s heart was no less than hers..
