Chapter 131

“Mr. Bai’s condition was not bad a few days ago, but today…” Dr. Xing hesitated when he said that.

Gu Yeze’s expression gradually became solemn.

“Mr. Gu. Don’t worry, I will try my best.”

Dr. Xing hung up the phone in trepidation. In the afternoon, the atmosphere in the operating room was strange, and Dr. Xing wasn’t going to tell anyone until he knew exactly the reason.

“Bai Hongbo’s illness has deteriorated again?” As soon as Bai Weijin came back, she received a call from Dr. Xing.

On second thought, Dr. Xing decided to tell Bai Weijin. After all, once cancer cells became malignant, they were out of control. As Bai Hongbo’s immediate family member, Bai Weijin had the right to know what was going on.

Although he was requested by Gu Yeze to be Bai Hongbo’s attending doctor, Dr Xing, as a famous doctor both at home and abroad, didn’t tell Gu Yeze what happened. He was professional not only in his medical ethics, but also in his medical skills.

“Yes, Miss Bai, please come to the hospital in person if you are free.”

Although Bai Weijin hesitated for a while, she drove to the hospital.

The smell of formalin in the hospital stimulated Bai Weijin’s senses.

When Bai Weijin was passing by a ward, she nearly ran into a man. Bai Weijin glanced at the man, who was wearing a white coat and a pair of silver eyeglasses. The doctor’s facial features were nice, and he looked so strange.

Bai Weijin frowned slightly, not knowing why she felt that the doctor was deliberately avoiding her eyes.

“Sorry.” The doctor turned away and left with a notebook in his hand.

Bai Weijin didn’t notice the doctor’s frightened face at the moment when he passed by.

Bai Hongbo had regained consciousness. He was staring out of the window and thinking about something.

Hearing the footsteps, Bai Hongbo turned his head and asked, “Weijin? Why do you have time to come over?”

Bai Hongbo’s arms had been swollen because of infusion for a long time. Just now, his left hand touched his right arm. Then a part of his arm dented and remained like this for a long time.

Bai Weijin looked at Bai Hongbo and somehow felt a little grieved.

“How are you?” Bai Weijin didn’t sit down. She moved over to the window and looked outside. Many patients’ family members were walking with the patients on the grass, and the afterglow of the sunset fell on everyone’s face.

However, Bai Hongbo’s ward was all grey and white.

“You and Mr. Gu don’t have to worry about me anymore. I know my body, there is not much time left. Don’t waste your efforts.”

“I just do you a favor. You gave birth to me anyway, and it’s time for me to repay you. Then we are square.”

Bai Hongbo smiled bitterly when she said this.

Bai Hongbo knew that Bai Weijin would not forgive him.

“Dr. Xing said that you are not doing so well. I come here to visit you. You take good care of yourself.”

Bai Weijin always felt a little awkward in his ward. If you didn’t like someone, you didn’t even bother to speak one more word with him or her. Bai Weijin and Bai Hongbo really had nothing to say except talking about his illness.

“I’ll talk to Dr. Xing.”

Then Bai Weijin rushed out of the door.

Bai Weijin was afraid that if she stayed there for another second, she would be completely driven mad by the depressing atmosphere.

“Miss Bai.”

It was the doctor just now.

Bai Weijin frowned unnoticeably. The doctor’s eyes were sharp and made Bai Weijin feel very uncomfortable. He recognized Bai Weijin the instant she came out of the ward.

It seemed that he was also one of Bai Hongbo’s doctors.

Bai Weijin nodded at him, and didn’t want to stay here any longer.

After she left, the doctor whispered in situ with a grim look, “Why bother? It’s a waste of efforts.”

Bai Weijin slowly stopped her car in front of Gu’s house, and was surprised to see that the house was brightly lit.

Then she saw Gu Yeze sitting on the sofa in the living room. The warm orange light fell on his face, casting a shadow over his long eyelashes.

Bai Weijin recalled what happened during the day. She walked past Gu Yeze quietly.

“Where did you go?”

“… Does it have anything to do with you?” Bai Weijin’s voice was terribly hoarse. Only then did Gu Yeze notice how tired Bai Weijin was.

Her big eyes that had always been bright now were somewhat empty, with thick dark circles under her bloodshot eyes.

Gu Yeze suddenly felt a pain in his heart.

“What happened between you and Tan Xin during the day?” Gu Yeze looked at Bai Weijin’s back. It had been just two days since they met, but she lost a lot of weight.

“Why are you still asking me a question which you already know the answer to?”

Gu Yeze suddenly regretted his impulse during the day, but it was too difficult for him to bow his head and apologize.

“It’s just that I’m the one who is unreasonable, and I offended her, OK? Don’t ask me anymore, I’m tired.”

Had Bai Weijin ever been so frustrated before?

When Bai Weijin was about to leave, Gu Yeze suddenly gave her a warm embrace. Bai Weijin could feel the strong smell of smoke of Gu Yeze, who tightened his hands around Bai Weijin little by little.

“Don’t be angry with me anymore.” Gu Yeze said in a muffled voice, with his head deeply buried in Bai Weijin’s shoulder and neck.

Bai Weijin was quite confused.

‘What is he doing? Is he apologizing to me or expecting me to forgive him?’

“Let go of me, Gu Yeze.”

“No.” Gu Yeze said laconically.

Bai Weijin wanted to struggle, but she had no strength.

“I said, let me go. Don’t you think you are disgusting?” At this moment, vivid scenes of Tan Xin and Gu Yeze staying together flashed through Bai Weijin’s mind.

Obviously Tan Xin and Gu Yeze had so many sweet memories, and the two had a very good relationship.

‘Why did I get involved? Why didn’t Gu Yeze choose Tan Xin at that time? Was he just using me to piss off Tan Xin? Now that his goal has been achieved, why doesn’t Gu Yeze let go of me?’

Bai Weijin had no idea where Gu Yeze had been these days. When Bai Weijin was troubled by Tan Xin, and when Bai Hongbo’s condition deteriorated, Bai Weijin went through those all alone.

“Disgusting?” Gu Yeze gradually loosened his arms around Bai Weijin.

This was the second time that Gu Yeze had heard Bai Weijin describe him like this.

Gu Yeze laughed at himself.

“Bai Weijin, I came all the way back to see you. I rushed to find a famous doctor for your father because his condition deteriorated. In return, you described me as disgusting?”

Gu Yeze almost shouted out the last word.

However, Bai Weijin was unmoved.

Bai Weijin seemed to be trapped in an abyss of misery. Gu Yeze had given her support, but left in an instant. If Gu Yeze let Bai Weijin know earlier that he had such a past, she wouldn’t be so frustrated.

But Gu Yeze concealed it again and again, and Tan Xin showed off their past in front of Bai Weijin again and again.

It was tantamount to telling Bai Weijin that Gu Yeze and Tan Xin were the couple who loved each other.

“So?” Bai Weijin shrugged.

“Tan Xin indeed is sweeter and more sensitive than you. Besides, she is not as ungrateful as you.”

Gu Yeze stepped back and distanced himself from Bai Weijin.

“That’s good. I hope you can stay happily together forever.”
