1348 Between Gu Zheng And Me, Who’s Better?
Huo Yuzhou lowered his eyes and said indifferently, “If she doesn’t accept it, this gift will lose its meaning. Whoever likes it can take it. It doesn’t matter.”
“Sir, will you still send it tomorrow?”
Huo Yuzhou shook his head.
The assistant then began to report the contents of today’s meeting. Suddenly, he thought of something and paused for a moment. “I’ve investigated Gu Zheng and realized that he didn’t come to Y Nation for a meeting. After he left the hotel, the people we sent lost track of him. They said that he seemed to have disappeared into thin air.”!!
“Gu Zheng’s strength can’t be underestimated, so he naturally won’t be easily followed.” With that, Huo Yuzhou raised his cold eyebrows slightly and asked seriously, “Who do you think is better between me and Gu Zheng?”
The assistant: “…”
He hesitated for a few seconds, then immediately replied, “Of course, you’re more outstanding. You got to your current position in just a few years. The Brook family’s power is also top-notch in Y Nation. Mr. Gu is still a little inferior to you.”
Huo Yuzhou’s finger landed on the medical book beside him. On it, the words ‘Divine Physician’ were written. The corners of his mouth revealed a trace of mockery. “Since I’m better, why did she marry Gu Zheng? I clearly knew her earlier and was by her side when she was at her weakest and most helpless.
“Before the divine physician appeared, the two of us relied on each other in that dilapidated village. We went to the top of the mountain to watch the sun rise and lay on the grass to look at the stars.
“We shared biscuits and even hugged each other to warm each other up every night. When the Qiao family wanted to bully her, I was the one who stood up for her. We had so many beautiful memories. All these years, I’ve been thinking about her, but why did she choose Gu Zheng, who appeared halfway?
The assistant: “…”
Huo Yuzhou smiled self-deprecatingly. “Why am I telling you this? You don’t know anything at all. How can you understand my feelings?”
The assistant looked at Mr. Huo in surprise and did not dare to say anything.
A trace of sorrow flashed past the man’s eyes. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. “Could it be that after betraying her once, I won’t have another chance?”
The assistant: “…”
Huo Yuzhou frowned. “You’re like a block of wood. It’s useless to talk to you. Don’t stand here and be an eyesore. Get out.”
The assistant was relieved. “Sir… If there’s nothing else, I’ll go out first.”
With that, he fled. After leaving, he could not help but purse his lips.
‘You didn’t just betray Miss Qiao. You stole her medical book and almost caused her grandfather’s death. Do you think she’ll forgive you?’
After the assistant left, the study was filled with silence. A trace of sorrow shrouded Huo Yuzhou’s eyes as he turned on his computer. The emails he had sent were all like rocks sinking into the sea. It was enough to prove how determined Qiao Xi was.
At this moment, the phone suddenly rang. A woman’s careful voice came from the other end. “Mr. Huo…”
Huo Yuzhou was clearly unhappy to have his thoughts interrupted. His tone was cold. “What is it?”
“Miss Guan refuses to eat or take her medicine. She’s clamoring to see you. The doctor said that if she continues to cause trouble, her body won’t be able to take it. He hopes you can go take a look.”
The person who spoke was a young nurse. She had been taking care of Miss Guan all these years. She thought that Mr. Huo would definitely come to see Miss Guan. After all, all these years, the noble and elegant Mr. Huo had never been close to women. He was focused on the family’s matters. The only young woman he interacted with was Miss Guan.
She heard that Miss Guan was already married to Mr. Huo, but the wedding had not been officially held yet. Mr. Huo had bought a villa for Miss Guan and even specially hired many people to take care of her. Now that Miss Guan wanted to see Mr. Huo, of course, he would not refuse.
However, she did not expect that the man on the other end of the phone would snort coldly. The nurse instantly became nervous. Immediately after, she heard Mr. Huo’s impatient voice. “I’m not a doctor. What’s the point of me going? If she doesn’t want to eat, then just let her be.”
“Mr. Huo…” Before the nurse could finish, the man hung up mercilessly.
The doctors and nurses in the room looked at each other and lowered their heads at the same time. No one dared to look at the ferocious Miss Guan.
Mr. Huo was too heartless!
At this moment, Miss Guan’s expression was malicious. Her fingers gripped the white bedsheet tightly as she broke down and shouted, “Why? Why isn’t he coming to see me? Did that b*tch come to Y Nation? As long as that b*tch appears, he won’t care about me anymore. Boo-hoo…”
