“No need. I take a rest and will be fine.” Gu Luan pats on her, “Come here. Sit by me and make sure I won’t faint. Or, I will make it an embarrassment.”
Xia Ning nods and sits by Gu Luan.
The path is quiet. The night winds blow and leaves rustle.
The hotel makes nice green planting. The wind brings flavor of the trees and grasses. Xia Ning can’t help close her eyes to enjoy the tranquility.
She also drank some liquor. She feels dizzy, but not very much. She will take a rest. When Yi Yunrui comes back, she will have got it over.
“Hum…”
Suddenly, she hears a painful grunt. Xia Ning opens her eyes and sees that Gu Luan is pale. She is shocked.
“Director Gu. How are you?”
Gu Luan covers his stomach. He is so painful that he screws his face, but he still smiles at Xia Ning, “I am fine. It is just the old problem…I will be fine soon.”
He gropes for a pill from his pocket and puts it into his mouth directly.
“I go to get a cup of water for you.” Xia Ning runs straightly to the hall of the hotel and takes back a cup of warm water for Gu Luan.
“Thank you…” Gu Luan’s stomach is painful. His voice becomes weak. He takes the water and drinks it slowly.
Xia Ning glances at her watch. Ten minutes have passed. She wonders why the assistant hasn’t arrived.
“Hum.” Gu Luan frowns. He presses hard on his stomach and can’t help giving another moan.
It can’t wait. It seems that Gu Luan drank too much and his stomach hurts. If he doesn’t go to the hospital in time, she is afraid that…
Thinking of this, Xia Ning tells Gu Luan, “Director Gu, you wait here for a minute.”
Not waiting for Gu Luan’s response, Xia Ning runs to the hotel and gets her key. Then she asks several waiters to help Gu Luan to get on the car.
“Can you send someone to drive for us? Both of us drank.” Xia Ning asks the hotel manager who helps Gu Luan to get on the car.
“OK. Hua, you drive the two guests to People’s Hospital. Drive carefully!” The manager agrees at once.
“Thank you!” Xia Ning says. She turns to check on Gu Luan. He is sweating and his hairs are wet. He presses on his stomach hard with his hand, the joints of which become pale.
“Director Gu, hold on. We will get to the hospital soon.” Xia Ning takes out some towels and wipes the sweat on Gu Luan’s head.
Gu Luan lifts his mouth slightly. He wants to speak but fails. He weakly nods.
The hospital is not far from the hotel and Hua drives quite well. It takes them five minutes to get to the hospital.
Xia Ning helps Gu Luan to get off the car. They just want to walk, while Gu Luan gives several coughs and some blood flows out from the corner of his mouth. Xia Ning is shocked that she loses her color.
Gastrorrhagia!
“Hurry up, get him into the emergency room!”
Xia Ning and Hua together support Gu Luan into the emergency room. Xia Ning doesn’t register but directly finds a doctor. Soon, the doctor and nurse come.
The doctor checks on Gu Luan and asks Xia Ning: “The patient’s stomach is bleeding. He needs an operation. What’s your relation with the patient?”
Xia Ning knows a signature is needed, “I am his friend.”
“Can you contact his family?” The doctor frowns.
Xia Ning hesitates, “I don’t know…”
It is urgent. The doctor agrees to have Xia Ning’s signature instead. Soon, Gu Luan is sent into the operation room. When the light is turned on, Xia Ning sits outside and waits. Her heart beats rapidly.
It is her fault. If Gu Luan hadn’t drunk so much liquor for her, he wouldn’t have needed to come to the hospital.
If she had known that Gu Luan had problems in his stomach, she wouldn’t have allowed him to drink so much!
Gu Luan is her boss. As a subordinate, she really does poorly!
At the time, Xia Ning’s phone rings. It is Yi Yunrui calling.
“Rui, you may go home first. I have something here. I need to handle it before I go home.” Not waiting for Yi Yunrui to speak, Xia Ning says.
“Where are you? I can go to wait for you.” Yi Yunrui sounds decisive.
Xia Ning curls her lips, “I am in the No. 1 People’s Hospital…”
“Why are you in the hospital? You don’t feel well?” Xia Ning has not finished her words, while Yi Yunrui gets anxious.
“No. Not me. It is Director Gu. He drank a lot of liquor and is having an operation in the hospital.”
“OK. I am coming. You wait for a minute.” Yi Yunrui hangs up the phone.
Soon, the light in the operation room is turned off and the doctor comes out. Xia Ning sees that Gu Luan is pushed out. She asks anxiously, “Doctor, how is my friend?”
“Mr. Gu had a gastric ulcer and he drank so much liquor, which caused bleeding in the gastric mucosa. It was lucky that he arrived here in time. Or, it can be a real problem. Miss Xia, don’t worry. The operation is successful. He will be OK after having a rest for a few days.”
“OK. Thank you, Doctor.”
Gu Luan is lying unconsciously. Xia Ning is worried. She takes up Gu Luan’s phone and looks for the number of Gu Luan’s family.
She is checking while there is a knock at the door. Yi Yunrui comes.
He looks at Gu Luan and asks, “How is he?”
“It is all right now. He drank too much and got gastrorrhagia.” Xia Ning gives a sigh, “It is my fault. Director Gu helped me and drank a lot.”
Yi Yunrui’s eyes darken, “Which client did you have the dinner with?”
“We will have an exclusive interview with Song Yingying these days. We met with her agent today. That agent likes liquor. He brought a bottle of vodka of 80% V/V. Director Gu helps me and drank a lot, so…” Xia Ning gives a light sigh here.
Surprisingly, she can’t find any family numbers in Gu Luan’s phone. She checks for a while and calls Leng Weiwei.
“Chief Editor Leng, this is Xia Ning. Director Gu drank too much and he is in the hospital now. Do you have the contact of his family?”
“Is he in the hospital again?” Leng Weiwei sounds helpless, “I don’t know anything about his family, either. Gu Luan never talks about his personal information.”
“Then, what can I do…” Xia Ning looks at Gu Luan, who is pale, lying on the bed, “The doctor says that he needs to rest for several days. Do you know if he has any good friends?”
“He has quite a lot of friends. Well, there is a girl named KK in his number list. You can try to call her.”
“OK. Thank you.”
Xia Ning is going to make the call when she sees someone come hurriedly. It is Gu Luan’s assistant.
Xia Ning looks at him and says, “You are here. The doctor says that the Director needs to rest for several days. You are his assistant. I think you can make the arrangement.”
The assistant nods. He feels guilty, “I encountered some urgent things when I came. So…”
“You don’t need to explain to me. You may look after your boss now.”
“OK.”
Xia Ning gives a sigh of relief. She remembers something and asks Yi Yunrui, “Have you had dinner?”
Though there is a canteen in the Military Region, Yi Yunrui often hasn’t eaten anything when he comes back at this time. It is past eight. She wonders if he has had supper.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
