Lu Chengzhou ignored the reminder coming from his ear piece, his gaze fixed on the blurry figure on the bed. The darkness concealed the emotions in his eyes as he stroked Gu Mang’s icy face with his fingers.
Meanwhile, in the alley next to the hospital where Lu Yī had parked their car.
Qin Fang and He Yidu, who were seated at the back, exchanged expressionless looks with each other before turning their gazes back to the hospital’s entrance in unison.
Dozens of jeeps were parked at the hospital’s entrance.
Gu Si walked up to Responsive Dragon and said something to him, to which the latter responded with a smile and a stroke of his head. They did not linger at the entrance for long. Not long after, Responsive Dragon left in his own car, leaving his subordinates at Gu Si’s disposal.
Gu Si then led Jiangsui and the rest of the gang into the hospital.
.
Lu Yī felt torn when he failed to receive a response from Lu Chengzhou. With much hesitation, he reminded him, “Young Master Lu, Young Master Gu and his people have entered the hospital.”
“Mhm,” replied Lu Chengzhou without emotion.
Hearing that, Lu Yī inwardly heaved a sigh of relief.
After staring at Gu Mang for a while, Lu Chengzhou leaned in and lightly kissed her forehead. He embraced her for a while before smoothing out the creases in the sheets and turning around to go.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly stopped, his gaze shifting back to Gu Mang’s face. He sighed and whispered, “If you dare put the betrothal gift up for auction, I won’t continue this act anymore. You hear me?”
Gu Mang did not respond.
Lu Chengzhou closed his eyes for a moment before standing up and striding over to the window in determination as if he would not be able to leave if he hesitated again. He was just about to climb out of the window when he heard whispers coming from outside the ward.
“Is my sister still sleeping? Did she leave the ward?”
“Not long after you left, Ms. Gu came out to ask the doctor for another two sleeping pills.”
“Again?!” Isn’t one enough?
“Yes.”
Three sleeping pills in all… Lu Chengzhou’s grip on the window frame tightened. When I hacked the hospital’s database, her electronic medical record only said one sleeping pill.
Outside the ward, Gu Si furrowed his eyebrows and said a moment later, “I’ll go in and check on my sister.”
“Okay.” The bodyguard turned around and opened the door for Gu Si.
Gu Si had just stepped into the ward when he suddenly frowned and looked toward the window. The curtains were fluttering slightly.
When Jiangsui noticed that Gu Si was looking at the window, he looked over as well. “Do you want me to close the window?”
It was not exactly cold outside, so after thinking for a moment, Gu Si shook his head. “No need.”
Gu Si felt an unexplainable feeling within him. He lowered his eyes in contemplation, but when he could not figure out the source for the feeling, he simply tossed the matter to the back of his mind and gathered his thoughts before walking over to the bed.
…
It was currently three in the morning.
In the alley next to the hospital, Qin Fang and He Yidu watched a man wearing a cap and a mask walk over toward them.
Lu Chengzhou opened the passenger car door and climbed into the car. He was shrouded in a gloomy aura as he removed his mask and cap and placed them in the storage compartment.
It was quiet inside the car. Nobody dared to even breathe loudly or let their eyes roam around as they sat stiffly in their seats. Given the bad mood Lu Chengzhou was in, they knew that Gu Mang was probably badly injured.
