Chapter 328: Chapter 328: Does Gu Qianlan Like You Ran?
An Junxi held back and didn’t lose her temper in front of her senior. When it was past five and Yu Zheng came to pick up her senior, An Junxi saw that it was only Yu Zheng and asked, "Didn’t Yi Ke come? He’s off work too."
Yu Zheng said, "The president is still in a video conference, discussing the opening plan for the new hotel."
An Junxi checked her phone, but there were no messages.
Why didn’t he send even a single message if he was working overtime?
Yu Zheng stood beside Gong Xiaoyu, knowing she hadn’t gotten used to him yet. He was very proper and didn’t make any physical contact, gently asking, "Did you pick a wedding dress you like?"
Gong Xiaoyu replied, "Yes, I did. It will be ready in ten days."
Yu Zheng reached out and tried to touch her face, but midway through, he turned to take the bag from her hand. "Next time, I’ll come with you to pick it up."
"Alright, let’s go back," Gong Xiaoyu, not really paying attention, saw that An Junxi was upset and said to her, "Junxi, you should go back too."
An Junxi escorted them to their car, watching as Yu Zheng thoughtfully opened the door and fastened the seatbelt for her senior, making her somewhat envious.
Would her senior fall in love with Yu Zheng because of how good he was to her?
She watched their car drive away, then got into her own car with Jin Xiu.
As their car drove out of the bridal shop area, An Junxi received a call from an unknown number.
She answered, "Hello, you are..."
A weak voice came from the other end, "Junxi, please come save me. I’m about to die at Gu Qianlan’s hands."
It took a while for An Junxi to recognize the voice. "Is that You Ran? Where are you?"
How did he get involved with Gu Qianlan again?
You Ran had said that he was driven to the United States by Gu Qianlan, with no way out, and was then forced to return to the country.
Who knew that even after returning, he still couldn’t escape Gu Qianlan. What exactly happened between them? Did Gu Qianlan come back secretly because of You Ran?
This sudden tragic connection was truly baffling.
You Ran said, "I’m at Huahai Hospital."
He gave the room number, and An Junxi replied, "I’ll be there soon."
She hung up the phone and told Uncle Cheng, "Go to Huahai Hospital."
Gu Jinxiu asked his mother, "Who are we going to see? Should we tell Dad?"
"No need," An Junxi was still angry. "Your dad is so busy, why bother him with this."
Yu Zheng took Gong Xiaoyu home, and Mrs. Gong enthusiastically invited him to stay for dinner. "Did you pick the wedding dress? Finally, I’ll get to see my daughter in a wedding dress. Our Xiaoyu will definitely be the most beautiful bride!"
Yu Zheng was also eagerly looking forward, gazing deeply at Gong Xiaoyu. "My bride will be the most beautiful."
Gong Xiaoyu didn’t know how to respond and lowered her head to adjust her hair.
Mrs. Gong thought her daughter was shy and nudged her husband with a wink. Mr. Gong then handed Yu Zheng the guest list. "These are the guests we’ll invite from the bride’s side on the wedding day. How shall we arrange our two families, are we in the same hotel?"
He was very satisfied with his soon-to-be son-in-law and liked to consult him about everything.
Yu Zheng sat down and gently pulled Gong Xiaoyu to sit beside him.
Gong Xiaoyu saw that her parents were both very excited. It had been a long time since she had seen them this happy.
She didn’t want to ruin the atmosphere and sat beside Yu Zheng to discuss the matter, not letting him be the only one speaking.
Yu Zheng was a little emotional, thinking that she might be starting to accept him.
During the meal, he served some food to Gong Xiaoyu, who thanked him. When she looked up, she noticed her mother giving her a funny look.
After a brief pause, she also served a piece of meat to Yu Zheng.
Yu Zheng was surprised and delighted. Gong Xiaoyu thought he didn’t like it and asked, "Don’t you like it?"
"No, I do. I like it," he said, shoveling the meat and rice into his mouth hurriedly and nearly choking.
Gong Xiaoyu poured him some soup, "Eat slowly, there’s no rush."
Yu Zheng’s ears turned a little red, possibly from embarrassment.
The two elders were smiling, feeling that they really looked like a couple about to get married.
Uncle Cheng dropped off the Young Madam and Young Master at the hospital. After they got out, Uncle Cheng immediately reported to the Young Master, "Young Master, the Young Madam and Young Master are at Huahai Hospital."
Gu Yikun was in a video conference. Upon seeing Uncle Cheng’s message, he paused the meeting and went out to make a call. "Uncle Cheng, why is the Young Madam at the hospital? Is she hurt?"
Uncle Cheng noticed the Young Master’s prompt call and knew he must be very concerned.
He said, "The Young Madam and Young Master are visiting a patient. The patient is You Ran."
He knew this man, the one who nearly caused their divorce two years ago, and was someone the Young Master particularly disliked.
Gu Yikun was furious upon hearing this, "Did You Ran contact the Young Madam?"
"Yes."
Gu Yikun tore off his tie, "Got it."
He told Russia that the meeting was over, shut down his computer, grabbed his car keys, and headed downstairs.
Gu Yikun’s face was icy. Passersby employees quickly moved aside, not daring to look up. The president looked as if he was about to kill someone. Who was so unlucky? Well, at least it was the end of the workday!
Secretary Wang was anxious; the president’s temper was unpredictable, and she was very worried!
Gu Yikun got into his car and sped off towards the hospital.
He ran two red lights, wishing he could be by An Junxi’s side immediately.
Why did she go to see You Ran? One call and she went?
This little woman was too impudent, hiding it from him to meet another man, and it was You Ran. Didn’t she know how much he hated that person?
When they got home, he would have to teach her a lesson she wouldn’t forget.
As for You Ran... Gu Yikun pounded the steering wheel hard. He had been too lenient, giving You Ran the chance to return to the country.
Unaware that she’d been sold out by Uncle Cheng, An Junxi bought a fruit basket from the supermarket next to the hospital and took Jin Xiu to find You Ran’s room.
It was a private room. As she entered, she saw a bearded figure lying in bed, wrapped like a mummy. Double-checking the room number, she was certain she had the right place.
The mummy on the bed spoke, "Junxi, it’s me."
An Junxi hurried inside, "You Ran, how did you end up like this?"
Gu Jinxiu saw that this uncle was seriously injured and asked, "Uncle, are you a friend of my mommy?"
You Ran coughed a few times, hitting his chest, "I’m ’Uncle,’ not ’Uncle’ (Senior)! "
An Junxi saw You Ran coughing badly and took out a medical mask for Jin Xiu, awkwardly smiling at You Ran, "Kids have weak immune systems, better to be cautious, don’t mind."
You Ran rolled his eyes, "An Junxi, I called you to comfort me, not to berate me!"
An Junxi replied, "I’m here to see you, aren’t I? How did you end up like this?"
You’re Ran had tears in his eyes, "Junxi, your little sister-in-law is relentless. She haunted me in the United States, and even after I returned, I couldn’t avoid her. She’s the reason I’m in this state!"
An Junxi asked, "Does Gu Qianlan visit you often?"
No wonder Gu Qianlan often went out. She had no friends, so besides visiting You Ran, there was nothing else for her to do.
You Ran said, "I don’t want to see her. I just want her to pay my medical bills."
Gu Jinxiu sat next to his mom and asked, "Uncle, why does my aunt keep bothering you? Does she like you? But you’re so old, you’re not a suitable match!"
An Junxi immediately got goosebumps. Could Gu Qianlan really like You Ran?
