After giving his instructions, Gu Shaoting drove to the nearest hospital. Upon arrival, he carried Shu Pan into the emergency room where a doctor examined her.
When Shu Pan woke up, her mind was still in a foggy state. She opened her eyes and found herself surrounded by white walls. She was lying on a bed, and she could faintly smell the scent of medicines and disinfectants. Was this a hospital?
She sat up abruptly, confirming that it was a hospital room. Her heart skipped a beat as she wondered about Joy’s whereabouts. She scanned the room and saw a tall figure standing near the window with his back to her.
As she hesitated about what to say, the figure turned around, and she was surprised to see that it was Gu Shaoting.
Before she could express her concerns, Gu Shaoting had already approached her bedside and inquired, “How are you feeling? Is there anything still bothering you?”
“I’m much better now. But where’s Joy? Where is she?” Shu Pan asked anxiously.
“He Ming has taken her out. Hospitals are full of germs, you Imow. Today was quite dangerous. If I hadn’t called, no one would have Imown you fell ill at home,” Gu Shaoting shivered at the thought.
“I’ve been very busy lately and exhausted. This has never happened before,” Shu Pan admitted, her voice subdued.
“Living as a single mother with a child is not easy. You can’t provide her with a good living environment,” Gu Shaoting now had a lingering sense of concern.
“Don’t worry, this won’t happen again in the future,” Shu Pan retorted, shutting down any further argument.
“Are you hungry? I’ll go buy you something to eat. Is there anything specific you’d like?” Gu Shaoting changed the topic, deciding that she needed to rest now.
Shu Pan shook her head, “I’m not in big trouble anymore. I can go home later and pick up Joy.”
Gu Shaoting furrowed his brow but remained silent. He left the room and returned shortly after, holding a bag. From the bag, he took out a bowl of plain congee and placed it on a tray by the bedside.
“Hurry up and finish this bowl of congee, and then I’ll take care of your discharge. If you don’t listen to me, I won’t bring Joy back,” Gu Shaoting warned.
Shu Pan couldn’t help but glare at him for a moment but then obediently started eating the congee. Maybe it was because she hadn’t eaten for a while, but she found it particularly delicious. As she ate, her stomach felt warm.
One spoonful after another, she finished the bowl quickly. Watching Shu Pan’s head bowing low over the empty bowl, Gu Shaoting couldn’t help but smile with satisfaction.
After finishing the congee, Shu Pan looked up at Gu Shaoting to signal that she had finished, expecting him to keep his promise.
Gu Shaoting glanced at her and then left the room. Shu Pan felt something unusual about Gu Shaoting’s behavior today.
Gu Shaoting completed the discharge procedures and intended to pick her up. “I can walk by myself,” Shu Pan told him, feeling embarrassed.
“Are you sure you can walk by yourself?” Gu Shaoting looked skeptical.
“I’ll be fine,” Shu Pan replied. Although she was still somewhat unsteady on her feet, she was determined to walk.
Gu Shaoting followed her, supporting Shu Pan as they made their way to the car. “What about Joy? Did you have He Ming take her back home?” Shu Pan couldn’t stop worrying about this.
“He Ming has already taken her back home. Don’t worry.” Gu Shaoting
reassured her. He could tell that her mind was solely focused on Joy..
