It was night time, so the doctors from the outpatient section were mostly off duty. Old Zhang driver quickly pulled out his phone and dialed the number, and within minutes, a team of doctors rushed in.
These doctors are always proud and consider themselves important since when are they ready to be called and called as mere drivers?
Gu Xiqiao watched quietly as the doctor picked up the pebble in his wound with a brace, not thinking more about receiving help from these mysterious people. They were just pedestrians who would never be able to meet again after this.
But she did not expect her driver to ask her how to contact her family.
Gu Xiqiao raised his head and looked at Old Zhang with a clear gaze, his jet-black hair resting on his shoulders and making him appear gentle and polite. “It's okay, just a small wound. I'll be able to go home later. ”
Call the Gu family? Su Wan’er probably wanted to strangle him to death, Gu Zuhui had not even looked him in the eye since he joined the family, and Gu Xijin acted like he cared, but still wanted to get rid of him. If they receive a call, it will probably be on the agenda ‘Gu Xiqiao is a sign of the misfortune’ they have done. They probably wouldn't even send a servant to help him.
Under the light, the girl looked extremely pale and fragile like a porcelain doll, and with how thin she was, she looked extremely sickly.
Before Old Zhang could answer, the nurse who helped wash his wounds couldn't help but speak. “How could you not tell your parents after being hurt like this? You may be fighting with your family aren't you, young lady? I understand experiencing a phase of rebellion, but please go home and apologize okay? Parents are always like that, but you should know that they mean well. It is quite difficult to work day by day, so do not worry too much about them. ”.
Then the nurse continued to nag, to the extent that Gu Xiqiao could feel a migraine coming.
Are nurses so excited right now?
“My mother is dead.” Gu Xiqiao glanced at the nurse. “My father also has no time to deal with me.”
“Ah, forgive me.” The nurse stopped nagging, realizing that she was saying something she shouldn't have said. As he made the details of the family soap opera in his head, he looked at Gu Xiqiao with pity. “Then you..”.
Gu Xiqiao's expression was as calm and collected as ever, but he quietly organized his thoughts. Once he returned when he was eighteen, he was given an unreliable system and was hit by a car as soon as he stepped out?
He was quite caught up in this and grabbed to gently massage his temples.
The nurse thought for a moment and decided to keep talking. She was a nurse in training and still did not have much experience in dealing with patients, so she decided to advise this ‘sheep of the so-called justice.
But didn't he know that a sense of justice centered on himself was the same as stabbing a knife into someone's heart?
The old Zhang could not continue watching anymore and decided to stop the young nurse from speaking.
However, before he could do anything, he heard a creaking sound from the entrance, and a tall skinny man walked into the room. As he walked, the room itself seemed to freeze with an invisible pressure.
The nurse felt a chill run down her spine, and she subconsciously closed her mouth and worked faster to clean her wound, before shivering and stopping for it.
Only after the door closed did he see a statue-like silhouette.
He stood still there, his aura so sharp that it was able to cut through the surrounding air, exerting pressure on everyone who looked at him.
From this angle, the man was characteristic and quite handsome. Her graceful brow angle seemed to melt the frost in her demeanor, highlighting the warmth on her features that made her even more alluring.
The young nurse was very surprised, as she had never seen such a beautiful man in her entire life.
Jiang Shuxuan saw that his wound had been treated and checked the report the doctor had written about him, his thick brows furrowing slightly like ripples in a calm lake. His gaze was deep in thought but covered in a layer of ice, and even if he was not angry, it was difficult to maintain eye contact with him.
The old Zhang seemed to want to contact the girl's family because it was inappropriate to leave a young woman in the hospital alone late at night, but he was quite stubborn and did not give her any information.
He was worried about Jiang who had been waiting below because it was his duty to send him to the airport, and it would be difficult for him to withstand the consequences of his mission failure. Now Mr. Jiang came alone and did not seem to blame him in the slightest, he became a little calm and went to take the medicine for him.
When there was no one else left in the room, Jiang Shuxuan looked at Gu Xiqiao with a cold gaze.
After a while, he asked, “Who are you?”
Jiang Shuxuan's gaze pierced, and it seemed to have the power to look into one's soul.
He knew that his car hit him, but that was never in his calculations. When he was in the car, he could not sense anyone in front of the car even with his strong sense ability. The mental strength of this girl was also quite raw and powerful, to the point where even she was wary of him.
With the mental strength he had, he was far more talented than all the children in his family. Maybe those people knew that he was interested in such things, so they made this girl appear before him?
It wasn't impossible, so he couldn't help but start to observe her and assess her.
When a cold voice sounded from above him, and Gu Xiqiao raised his head and looked at the man who asked him with a confused expression.
His gaze was as innocent as a newborn child, like a clear tributary in a forest.
Jiang Shuxuan suddenly did not know what to say, and coughed lightly to hide his sudden awkwardness. He felt a little guilty for suspecting a girl with such a pure gaze, and his first impression of the girl was renewed. “I want to say that if you do not want to go home, you can come to stay at my place for a few days.”
It was very common for children to quarrel with their parents, but for a child so meek and gentle to choose to flee from his home, how terrible would it be for him to make such a choice?
Gu Xiqiao raised his eyebrows and was about to refuse, before feeling a shadow enveloping him along with a loss of gravity.
Before he could react, he was already carried away easily by the man.
He raised his head slightly in shock, but from his gaze, he could only see his firm jaw. This fellow must have gotten used to his own way so he didn't even give him a chance to refuse.
Even so, the warmth hidden in his dark ball was not a lie.
Gu Xiqiao pursed his lips slightly before lowering his head in defeat, hiding his emotions.
The person in his arms was arguably as light as a feather, and even a rifle was denser than him. Jiang Shuxuan frowned as he thought of the report he saw earlier — Weak Constitution, anemia, a slight concussion, and serious injuries, wasn't it too severe for someone his age?
How was he treated at home?
Gu Xiqiao was still daydreaming before the system sounded in his mind.
[Dig! The system had detected that this man was an honorable young man with good intentions! He has been added to your Friends List by default.]
Friends list? As soon as he gained this new skill, he immediately closed his eyes and checked out this new list of friends that had appeared in the system room.
