Marry Me Quick

Chapter 127

Su Ziyue turned her head to glance at Gu Hanyan. Then, she took the paring knife and sat down in front of Gu

Hanyan’s bed straight away as though she did not hear what Gu Hanyan had just said. After that, she began peeling

the apple with the apple in one hand and the paring knife in the other.

Gu Hanyan looked at her with a frown, saying, “I said I don’t want to eat the apple.” She had previously thought that

Su Ziyue was easy to deal with since the latter was merely a little girl. However, she did not expect Su Ziyue to be

much more difficult to handle than she had imagined. She thought that Su Ziyue would at least feel guilty after she

had saved the latter’s life on the previous day, but she did not expect Su Ziyue to be so on guard as to forbid Qin

Muchen to come to visit her.

“Perhaps you’ll want to eat it after I finish peeling it,” said Su Ziyue as she looked up and gave Gu Hanyan a wide

smile. Her face was so beautiful that it was beyond description, yet her smile looked bright and innocent.

Gu Hanyan found Su Ziyue’s smile a little offending to her eyes, so she bit back the words that rose to her lips

without saying another word.

Su Ziyue lowered her eyes with a smile on her face as she sat there while peeling the apple for Gu Hanyan. She

looked calm on the outside, but that wasn’t the case in her heart. She would be blind if she were still unable to tell

Gu Hanyan’s purpose in saving her. I have been perceiving human nature through rose-colored glasses, she

thought to herself.

In the end, Gu Hanyan did not eat the apple after she finished peeling it, so she ate it instead. Su Ziyue sat in front

of Gu Hanyan’s bed while nibbling at the apple, producing clear crunching sounds that made one think that the

apple must have smelled pleasant and tasted sweet.

Gu Hanyan kept pulling a long face; when she could almost no longer keep the expression on her face, Su Ziyue

finally finished eating the apple. She wiped her hands clean with some tissues and feigned shyness as she said, “I’m

sorry, Miss Gu, but I thought it was a pity that you didn’t eat the apple, so I ate it for you.”

“It’s fine. I want to take a rest.” Gu Hanyan’s smile vanished as she said that in a tone as though she wanted to

chase Su Ziyue out of the ward.

“Alright. Is Miss Meng not here? Let me go out and find two care workers for you. Otherwise, she won’t be able to

take care of you all by herself,” said Su Ziyue as she stood up obediently and went out.

After a while, she brought two middle-aged women into the ward. “Miss Gu, I have found two care workers for you,

and they should be able to take good care of you. Remember to call me anytime if anything happens.” After that,

she turned around and left with a smile.

As soon as Su Ziyue left the room, one of the care workers stepped forward, asking, “Miss Gu, would you like to

drink some water right now?” Su Ziyue had just paid them their wages—which were generous—but Gu Hanyan did

not seem to need anyone waiting on her. However, they would feel unworthy of the wages Su Ziyue had paid them

if they did nothing.

Gu Hanyan still cared about her own image after all. She closed her eyes without even looking at them as she said,

“Leave the room. I want to rest for a while right now.”

The care workers’ job was to wait on the sick, so they quickly noticed that Gu Hanyan was in a bad mood. Upon

hearing her words, they could only turn around obediently and leave the ward. However, as soon as they left the

ward, they heard a loud thud inside, as though something was thrown onto the floor.

One of the care workers wanted to push the door open and enter, but she heard Gu Hanyan saying inside, “Don’t

come in!”

Upon hearing her words, the two care workers immediately closed the door as they dared not enter the ward.

Inside the ward, Gu Hanyan had thrown the fruit basket Su Ziyue gave her as a present onto the floor, scattering

the fresh fruits inside the basket all over the floor.

What is there for her to be smug about? Gu Hanyan thought to herself as she narrowed her eyes with a look of

viciousness. Su Ziyue, is it? How dare a little girl like her be rude to my face? Su Ziyue is merely riding on the fact

that Qin Muchen hasn’t grown tired of playing with her yet. Who does she think she is without Qin Muchen? She’s

just like these fresh and nice-looking fruits. They looked nice, fresh, and likable inside the basket, but who would

pick them up after they were thrown onto the floor?

Gu Hanyan took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. Then, she picked up her cell phone expressionlessly and

made a phone call. Meng sounded impatient over the phone. “Cut to the chase.”

Gu Hanyan couldn’t care less about Meng’s tone of voice as she instructed, “Come and pick me up; I want to leave

the hospital. Don’t forget to notify the reporters when you come.”

However, Meng did not give a d*mn about what Gu Hanyan had said, and she sounded even more impatient.

“Leave the hospital yourself if you want to. Why would you ask me to come over? It isn’t that you don’t have the

reporters’ phone numbers. I’m still sleeping…”

“You’d better come. Don’t forget that you’re still my talent agent; remember who gave you the money you spend

and the house you live in. You’re nothing but a lapdog who could only survive by fawning on somebody else

obsequiously. Do you actually think that you’re a bigwig after having lived comfortably for a long time?” After she

finished her sentence, Gu Hanyan gave a sneer and hung up.

…

Having managed to make Gu Hanyan feel uncomfortable, Su Ziyue left the former’s ward and walked out while

humming to herself. She just knew that Gu Hanyan wasn’t that kind. If she were Gu Hanyan, she wouldn’t have

wanted to save herself out of heartfelt sincerity. She felt relieved at the thought. But Gu Hanyan still saved me in

the end. Did I go a little over-the-top by doing that just now? she thought to herself.

The elevator door opened with a ‘ding’. After a while, the elevator stopped at the floor she wanted. Su Ziyue came

to her senses and stepped out only to notice the person who stepped out of the elevator opposite hers.

“Shichu!” Su Ziyue was surprised to meet Lu Shichu here.

Lu Shichu was wearing a doctor’s uniform with a pen and a stethoscope inside the upper left pocket, making him

look handsome, refined, and elegant. He had two nurses behind him; one of them seemed a little shy as she lifted

her head while talking to him with a blushing face.

Lu Shichu was listening to what the nurse said with a serious expression when he heard Su Ziyue calling him. He

was dazed for a few seconds as he thought he must be hallucinating, but one of the nurses pointed at Su Ziyue and

reminded him, “Over there, Director Lu.”

Having a sharp ear, Su Ziyue heard the nurse calling Lu Shichu ‘Director Lu’. Therefore, when Lu Shichu turned to

look at her, he happened to see the look of surprise on her face; he then said something to the two nurses before

turning around to walk toward her.

“What brings you here?” Lu Shichu walked up to Su Ziyue while looking her up and down. However, he did not

notice anything wrong with her, so he fixed his gaze back upon her face.

Su Ziyue was about to say something when she heard Lu Shichu saying, “This is not the right place to have a

conversation. Follow me.” As he spoke, he gently placed his hand on her arm and dragged her to his office.

When Su Ziyue entered the office, she looked up expressly to glance at the door. It’s the Deputy Director’s office…

What a big title he has, she thought to herself.

“Feel free to have a seat.” Lu Shichu poured her a glass of water and handed it to her before seating himself across

from her.

Su Ziyue took the glass of water and drank it while staring at him. This was the first time she saw him wearing a

doctor’s uniform.

Lu Shichu asked her, “What are you looking at?”

Su Ziyue answered honestly, “I haven’t seen you wearing a doctor’s uniform before.”

Lu Shichu gave a light chuckle upon hearing her answer. “You haven’t told me the reason you are here.”
