Chapter 109

Her eyes showed firm determination.

Du Meihua wavered a little bit. Bai Yinya saw that her mom couldn’t make a decision and said, “Mom, do you really want to see me being forced into a corner by Bai Weijin?”

Du Meihua imagined that they would be on the run if they leave, while at the same time, Bai Weijin could live a carefree life from now on.

‘It is better to take a risk than to leave.’

“Okay, mom promise you.” Du Meihua’s eyes showed a menacing look.

After hearing the satisfactory answer, Bai Yinya gradually calmed down. They sat together and discussed the details stealthily.

…

Gu Yeze and Bai Weijin were sitting side by side in front of the doctor.

Gu Yeze contacted the most authoritative doctor in the internal medicine field in the morning. The doctor flew to H City quickly at night. Right now, the doctor was studying Bai Hongbo’s medical records.

“The current condition is dangerous, and there is a risk of deterioration to a terminal stage. But as long as he cooperates with the medical workers, the chance of controlling the disease is 60%.”

Bai Weijin frowned, lost in thought She was sure that the doctor Gu Yeze brought was the best. Besides, 60% was relatively high in treating a cancer.

“We also hope that the patient’s family members can help to comfort and persuade the patient, a good mental state is also an important factor in determining whether the disease can be controlled in many cases.”

Bai Weijin’s finger curled up under the table.

Gu Yeze interrupted the doctor, “Let’s go to the hospital and visit the patient first.”

When the car drove to the gate of the hospital, they got off one by one.

Bai Hongbo was staring out of the window in the ward. When he saw Bai Weijin, the look in his eyes was somewhat surprised and joyful. Then he saw Gu Yeze and another man.

He was a little startled, “Weijin, who is he?”

He knew Gu Yeze, but he didn’t know the middle-aged man who stood behind Gu Yeze. The man wore gold-rimmed glasses, his dress highlighting tidiness in every detail.

Bai Weijin’s look was stiff.

“He is an authoritative doctor in the field of cancer. He will be your attending doctor now.”

Bai Hongbo didn’t expect Bai Weijin to care about him. He thought she must hate him to the core.

“Weijin, I…”

“I don’t need your thanks. No matter how incompetent a father you are, you gave me my life. You can just take it as reciprocation. And now we are square.” Bai Weijin averted her eyes and didn’t even bother to glance at Bai Hongbo anymore.

Bai Hongbo was a little sad when he heard this, but he knew he deserved it and couldn’t blame anyone.

Gu Yeze looked at Bai Hongbo and couldn’t be friendly.

This man was nominally his father-in-law. But he used to be too indifferent to Bai Weijin in the past who was framed and treated badly by Bai Yinya and Du Meihua.

Therefore, he hadn’t talked to Bai Hongbo since he entered the ward. Bai Hongbo also deliberately avoided Gu Yeze’s eyes.

The look in his eyes was frightening.

Gu Yeze walked out with his arm around Bai Weijin’s waist, and waited in the corridor.

The doctor, who was silent nearby, stepped forward and did specific examinations for Bai Hongbo.

“Gu Yeze, there is no way not to hate him.” Bai Weijin stared at the busy figures of doctors and nurses as well as Bai Hongbo through a small window.

“If hating him is more acceptable to you than forgiving him, then hate him.”

She looked at Gu Yeze’s poker face, a face that was so calm. It seemed that only in matters concerning her did Gu Yeze tend to lose his reason and calmness.

Bai Weijin seemed to instantly find a solution to the dilemma she had been in for many days.

The doctor stayed in the ward for half an hour and carefully examined Bai Hongbo. Then he took his mask off and came out.

“Mr. and Mrs. Gu, may I have a word?”

The doctor’s surname is Xing, and now he looked so grim. Bai Weijin intuitively felt that Bai Hongbo’s illness was more serious than she had expected.

Gu Yeze held her hand and used his big hand to rub her cold fingertips.

“The condition is much more serious than what you described. The patient is now in the terminal stage and none of the physical indicators is positive.”

Terminal? Bai Hongbo was so ill that the disease deteriorated only in a few days.

“What’s the probability of controlling the disease now?” Gu Yeze’s voice sounded cold and solemn.

Dr. Xing thought for a moment.

“Less than 40%.”

Bai Weijin’s stiff expression finally changed, “Less than 40%?”

“Yes, Mrs. Gu. We can’t be optimistic about the current condition, and even 40% is an optimistic estimation.” Dr. Xing was always sincere and honest.

Moreover, there was no need for him to tell white lies in front of the patient’s family members.

However, he was a little surprised by Bai Weijin.

As a well-known doctor at home and abroad, he had seen many patients and their families.

When he wrote notices of the patients’ critical conditions, he had seen those who cried their eyes out, those who were indifferent and those were complacent secretly.

But it was the first time he had seen someone like Bai Weijin.

Her eyes were full of all kinds of emotions, including grief, pity, pleasure of revenge and hatred.

“Try your best.” Bai Weijin sounded weary.

“Surely, I will try my best.”

Then Dr. Xing and his assistant did their following work.

“Do you want to see Bai Hongbo again?” Gu Yeze looked through the window at Bai Hongbo – a man who was so lonely and despondent. Actually, Gu Yeze didn’t care whether to see him or not.

“No, let’s go.” Bai Weijin turned around and stopped looking at him.

It was late at night and slightly cold. When they passed the emergency department, doctors and nurses were still very busy.

Everyone continued his or her life step by step.

Suddenly Gu Yeze’s phone rang. Bai Weijin leaned forward and had a look. It was Chu Jiran.

“Hello? Yeze, is Yeyu with you?

Bai Weijin still stood aside and watched the figures in the emergency department. Seeing Gu Yeze didn’t talk for a long time, she said, “What’s the matter?”

“Yeyu is missing.”

“Missing? She must have gone somewhere to play,” said Bai Weijin.

Gu Yeze shook his head.

“No, she asked Jiran out, and then disappeared. She won’t stand Jiran up.

On second thought, Bai Weijin also sensed something was wrong.

A few hours ago, Gu Yeyu pestered Chu Jiran to accompany her to a newly opened restaurant. Chu Jiran failed to dissuade her and cancelled his work.

He had waited her for more than an hour, but she didn’t show up. He tried phoning but there was no answer. Grandma Gu said she had been out for more than an hour.

Chu Jiran gradually realized something was wrong after waiting for a while.

He asked his men to look for Gu Yeyu, and he stayed at the restaurant waiting for her. But they couldn’t find her. Chu Jiran was so worried about Yeyu’s safety that he contacted Gu Yeze eventually.
