Chapter 484 A Troublesome Patient

Du Jingtang touched his nose. Then, he reached out with one hand and waved. “Goodbye, ex-ex-Cousin-in-law. A good woman like you deserves happiness. See, your happily-ever-after is here. What a matching couple.”

While he was mumbling, an unfounded chill suddenly crept on him. He shivered violently. He turned around and saw the man at the door behind him. The corners of his eyes started spasming

“Brother, when did you come out? Were you just here?” He pointed in front of him as his brain struggled to come up with logic.

Chu Lui turned around and strode back into his ward. Then, he pulled the blanket and laid down without a word. The temperature of the air around him seemed to drop a few degrees, becoming colder.

The heater in the hospital was turned on to the maximum, which made it comfortable for anyone to be wearing a thin layer of pajamas. However, it did not prevent Du Jingtang’s hands from rubbing along his arms.

He could seriously feel something going wrong. He went in, pulled a chair, and sat down. His hand reached out to support his chin.

“Brother, are you staying here because of her?”

The patient neither moved nor spoke a word.

“Brother, whatever happened between both of you is in the past.” Du Jingtang felt he had to speak up and remind his cousin. “Are you thinking of retrieving the stone which you initially had discarded… now that you know it was actually gold? You should know that a good man doesn’t backtrack. Besides, you did those things to her.”

His hand glazed his face. If he was a woman, he would never forgive his cousin for what he did. Needless to say, Du Jingtang resolved his cousin’s decisions behind his back. However, the harm had been done.

Divorced, got married, and got another divorce. Did his cousin think everyone in the world revolved around him?

Was he trying to force his way back into her life now that she finally had something good going on? Gao Yi aside, Du Jingtang couldn’t bear for that little cutie to come to any harm.

Chu Lui continued to turn his back towards Du Jingtang.

Fine. Du Jingtang would say no more. The more he said, the more tears he would shed.

He wiped the corners of his eyes. Then, he yawned after a long time. A drop of tear could be seen at the corner of his eye.

“I’ll go back to the company first.” He carried that whole stack of documents signed by Chu Lui and prepared to leave. However, he stopped when he reached the doorway as though he was trying to suppress some emotions.

Oh…” he sighed.

It was exactly as Du Jingtang had said: I told you so. Chu Lui had committed those sins in the first place so it was only right that he tried to make up for his wrongdoings. He shouldn’t say that he was repenting and that he wanted to reconcile with Xia Ruoxin.

Nevertheless, humans had emotions: being happy or feeling upset. A simple sorry couldn’t retrieve all the time in the past. Time was a heartless thing. Moreover, it had been four years.

No one knew the man who had his back towards everyone had opened his eyes. What emotions were going through them right now?

Irritation, regret, remorse, and inability to come to terms with what had happened. In the end, every thread of his regret and shame would start to fill him with whatever time he had left… for the rest of his life in this lifetime.

There were no patients in Gao Yi’s office at the moment. Xia Ruoxin opened the cover of the three-tier box and took out the different layers. There was a plate of sweet and sour fish, some stir-fried vegetables, and Mapo bean curd—which were all Gao Yi’s favorites. She rushed over to the hospital as soon as she was done with the cooking.

It was a nice spread. Gao Yi could barely contain himself as he took the chopsticks and helped himself with a slice of fish. Xia Ruoxin had removed all the bones from the meat. Besides, she had chosen to buy this kind of fish because it had lesser bones. The meat melted in his mouth as he savored its freshness.

Gao Yi knew the sweet and sour fish that Xia Ruoxin had cooked was considered her specialty. He wondered where she learned to cook it; hers tasted so much better than the ones prepared by those chefs. This had easily become his favorite dish on any given day.

Feeling contented, he took another slice. However, just as he was putting it into his mouth, he heard a knock on his door.

“Doctor Gao, that Mr. Chu is asking for you. He said he’s feeling some discomfort in his shoulder.”

The nurse said, clearly embarrassed. They were eating. Nevertheless, Mr. Chu was a very important patient in the hospital who was greatly valued and respected by the hospital director. Not to mention these rank-and-file employees.

The last name was Chu. Xia Ruoxin felt a gush of sudden discomfort in her heart. Could it be that man? If it was, what did he want? He knew about Gao Yi. Did he know anything about Rainy?

“Don’t worry. It will be fine.” Gao Yi took his robe and put it on as he turned around and reassured Xia Ruoxin. “I’ll be back in no time. That patient is a bit crazy. He won’t rest if he didn’t create a few scenes in a day. I’ll continue eating when I come back later.”

He couldn’t bear to leave his favorite fish, and so he took the chopsticks and picked another piece to eat while he made his way to his patient. When he arrived outside Chu Lui’s ward, he was the clean and professional doctor

again.

He pushed the door open and walked to Chu Lui’s bedside. At one glance, the man before him had a sullen expression. He had truly lost a lot of weight recently. However, anyone could tell he was very much alive with one look.

It was merely some superficial wound on his shoulder. With the amount of time he had been resting so far, he could be fully recovered no matter how severe his injury was.

“Mr. Chu, where are you feeling the discomfort?” Gao Yi took Chu Lui’s medical chart from the table and read through it. Body temperature was normal; blood pressure normal. Everything seemed normal. Hmm, he might be putting on a pretense of feeling unwell.

Chu Lui simply lifted his eyes and threw a swift loathing look at Gao Yi who accepted it.

“I feel sick whenever I see you.”

“Oh, what a coincidence. The feeling is mutual. I am not very fond of you, too. I believe if you are to go home and recuperate, your recovery may be faster.” Gao Yi put on a professional smile. Compared to Chu Lui’s icy expression, his looks put others at ease. Not everyone was in love with the domineering CEO. Gao Yi was a doctor and a warm person. They seemed to have arrived at a conclusion as to who had won or lost. At the very least, it had been determined on a woman’s heart.

At least, there weren’t any comparisons in the woman’s eyes because they simply couldn’t be compared.

Gao Yi ordered another round of routine check-ups for Chu Lui. Besides, the man was feeling silly and filthy rich right now. If he didn’t spend some money, he might not be able to set himself at ease. Since this was what he wanted, he should spend more. When the money had been spent, he would feel better and get a discharge.

Gao Yi patiently carried out his duties as a professional doctor as he allowed Chu Lui to make his life difficult. Still, Chu Lui continued to nick and pick on him.

However, when he returned to his office after he was done, he realized the plate of fish had turned ice cold. Fortunately, Xia Ruoxin had placed it on the top of a heater so he wouldn’t feel it had gone cold.

“Is that a troublesome patient?” Xia Ruoxin pretended to ask nonchalantly. In truth, she was terrified of Chu Lui. She didn’t want him to cause any problems to Gao Yi.
