After divorcing the mute girl, President Gu knelt down and begged for reconciliation.

Chapter 164 Hero saves beauty
"Sir/Madam, Ms. Yu called to say she needs to take an urgent leave of absence. She has been hospitalized with acute gastroenteritis and needs to take one day off."

Song Jin'an paused in her spoonful, nodded, and glanced at Gu Xijue out of the corner of her eye, wanting to see his reaction.

Gu Xijue simply said "I understand" and then stopped talking and continued eating his breakfast.

Song Jin'an, however, had an idea in mind, her eyes darkened, but she didn't say anything.

……

In the hospital, Yu Yousheng lay on the hospital bed with an IV drip in his hand.

Pale-faced, when the doctor asked if she had a caregiver, she asked the doctor to help her find a caregiver because she had no relatives in China.

Just then, hurried footsteps entered the ward. Yu Yousheng looked at the man in front of him with an anxious expression.

"Young Master Duan, what brings you here? Didn't I tell you you didn't need to come in person?"

She barely had the strength to speak; she was in severe pain from acute gastroenteritis.

Although Yu Yousheng said that, her eyes kept looking around, as if searching for something.

But Duan Nanhe didn't notice the urgency in his eyes: "Didn't you call me? Of course I have to come and see."

"I was in a lot of pain at the time, so I pressed the wrong one."

This is Yu Yousheng's explanation: she dialed the wrong number; it wasn't meant for Duan Nanhe.

"So who were you originally planning to call?" His gaze was inquisitive, with a hint of jealousy in it.

Because he genuinely liked Yu Yousheng, even though his brothers all said they were being manipulated by prey that hadn't even been caught yet.

Yu Yousheng told the truth: "It was for Mr. Gu."

"Because my illness came on suddenly, I didn't have time to ask for leave."

Duan Nanhe's gaze turned cold and somber, seemingly tinged with a hint of hurt.
"Okay, so you're waiting for Gu Xijue to come see you?" His deep voice carried an even more obvious hurt.

He really felt unlucky; the woman he fell in love with at first sight actually liked his own brother!
Duan Nanhe's hands were clenched, and his downcast eyes still held a hint of disappointment. Yu Yousheng did not answer, but his silence spoke volumes.

"Young Master Duan, I've made it very clear to you that there's no possibility between us because I don't like you."

Yu Yousheng seemed to think that Duan Nanhe was pestering her, so she brought it up again. She also genuinely disliked Duan Nanhe.

"I know, but feelings can be cultivated."

He blurted out something out of nowhere: "Feelings can be cultivated."

"Besides, Gu Xijue already has a wife. Don't be fooled by his outward disdain for the little mute girl; he might not actually dislike her at all."

As he said this, Yu Yousheng's eyelashes trembled and his fingers clenched tightly, but Duan Nanhe still didn't see it.

Her slightly hoarse voice trembled as she softly asked, "Really?"

She was so humble, as if she really loved Gu Xijue to death.

In fact, Duan Nanhe's attraction to Yu Yousheng was purely based on physical appearance. Love at first sight is usually based on looks, and it takes time to get to know someone's character.

Of course, in their social class, women are simply money-loving. Ordinary men think that women who love money are gold diggers, but Duan Nan and his group of rich young men don't think so, after all, they have plenty of money.

What are these people lacking?
It's a feeling, it's love.

When he first saw Yu Yousheng, he felt that his love might be on the horizon.

"Of course it's true," Duan Nanhe replied, noticing her curled up on the hospital bed with one hand covering her stomach. He quickly pressed the nurse call button.

"Are you alright? Are you in so much pain?" As soon as he received Yu Yousheng's call, he jumped out of bed, threw on some clothes, and even ran a red light to rush over.

When I arrived and saw her like this, my heart skipped a beat.

After the nurse came, the doctor was called again and examined her again. The doctor said, "If the pain is unbearable, we can only give her a painkiller injection, but it will only relieve the pain for a few hours." "After being prescribed medication and given an IV for acute gastroenteritis, you can only tough it out; there is no other way."

After the doctor finished speaking, he looked at Yu Yousheng on the bed and said, "Can you still hold on? If you really can't take it, you can get a painkiller injection."

Although Yu Yousheng was in pain, he gritted his teeth and refused to take a painkiller injection.

She gently closed her eyes and said, "No need, I can handle it."

After the doctor left, she urged Duan Nanhe to leave as well: "Young Master Duan, you should go too, I need to rest."

Seeing how uncomfortable she was, Duan Nanhe took a deep breath and said, "I'll stay with you at the hospital. You don't have any relatives in Haicheng. How can you manage alone?"

He knew that Yu Yousheng had no relatives in Haicheng.

“No need, I’ve already hired a caregiver.” She refused.

Duan Nanhe was repeatedly humiliated, and given her resolute attitude, it was really difficult for him to say anything.

He could only helplessly scratch the back of his head and say, "Okay, you get some rest. Call me if anything happens."

After saying that, he stood by the bedside for another minute before turning and leaving.

After leaving, Duan Nanhe immediately called Gu Xijue.

"Where are you?"

A cold, indifferent voice came from the phone: "Going to work."

Duan Nanhe's heart sank. He knew that it would be useless to tell Gu Xijue about this, and he didn't seem to have any standing to do so.

But she still said, "Teacher Yu has acute gastroenteritis, aren't you coming to see her?"

There was no response for a long time. After more than ten seconds, Gu Xijue chuckled softly: "Why should I go to the hospital to see her?"

"My relationship with her is purely professional."

He then added, "She's in a weak position right now, and instead of putting on a heroic rescue act, you come to me asking me to go to the hospital to see her. Duan Nanhe, is your brain filled with nothing but tofu dregs?"

Duan Nanhe: "..."

This person's words are truly... as vicious as ever...

"I just thought that if you came to see her, she would be happier." Duan Nanhe didn't know what was wrong with him; after liking someone, it seemed like his IQ was in the negative.

Gu Xijue really thought this person had gone mad.

He pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "I won't go."

"Since you like her so much, you can decide for yourself."

After saying that, Gu Xijue hung up the phone. He really felt that Duan Nanhe was going to be ruined by Yu Yousheng.

only……

The secrets surrounding Yu Yousheng have not yet been fully revealed, so he still needs to make full use of them.

So he pressed the intercom and let Wei Zhou in: "Have you made contact with Yu Yousheng's father?"

To find out whether this woman's secret is also intricately related to Song Jin'an, the only way is to start with Yu Yousheng's still-living father.

Wei Zhou shook his head: "Not yet."

Although Yu Yousheng's father is a professor at a well-known university abroad, no direct contact information was found.
