Chapter 108: Accustomed To It
Translator: _Min_
Gu Dai shook her head and replied, “I’m sorry, I’m not a medical student, and I have no plans to become one.”
The doctor was even more astounded. He couldn’t believe that someone with such profound medical skills wasn’t a medical student.
What a loss for the medical community!
Zhou Ci had been silent, observing everything. He stared at Gu Dai in a daze, having heard everything and witnessed all that had transpired. After the doctor left, he approached her, lowering his head and earnestly apologizing. “I’m sorry for everything 1 said and the disturbance I caused you.”
Gu Dai raised an eyebrow in surprise, not expecting Zhou Ci to apologize to her. She nodded slightly and said, “It’s okay.”
Zhou Ci grew anxious at Gu Dai’s nonchalant response, and quickly continued, “I sincerely apologize. I realize my mistake.”
Gu Dai nodded again, replying, “I know you’re sincere, and I really don’t mind your skepticism.”
In the past, when Gu Dai’s reputation as a legendary doctor had not yet spread, she faced doubts and skepticism every time she helped someone. She had grown accustomed to it, and it wasn’t a big deal to her anymore.
Zhou Ci, seeing the genuine look in Gu Dai’s eyes, finally relaxed and said with a smile, “You saved my grandfather, so you’re our family’s savior. We will definitely repay you.”
Gu Dai didn’t take it to heart. She glanced at him and said, “The ambulance is leaving. You should go with it and take care of your grandpa.”
Zhou Ci nodded quickly and said with a smile, “Alright, I’ll go now!”
Once he was inside the ambulance, he looked through the window at Gu Dai, his eyes filled with curiosity.
If culinary skills could be mastered quickly, medical skills would take at least seven or eightyears to learn. He remembered clearly that Gu Dai had not known medicine when she was at the Song family How could she suddenly know now?
Had she been hiding her skills all along?
Zhou Ci wondered if Song Ling knew that Gu Dai was skilled in medicine. Considering his hatred for Gu Dai back then, he probably didn’t.
He couldn’t figure it out, so he took out his phone and sent a message to his private investigator.
Zhou Ci texted, “1 need you to investigate someone for me. I need detailed information.”
He then added, “Also, she might be hard to track down. If you need help, ask your friends. Money is not an issue.”
The private investigator felt challenged upon reading Zhou Ci’s message.
The private investigator responded, “I’m one of the top private investigators in the country. How could there be anyone I can’t find? Just wait, I’ll handle it alone.”
After Zhou Ci left, Gu Dai and Meng Zhi got into a car to go home.
Meng Zhi gently ma.s.saged Gu Dai’s wrist, looking at the red mark on her skin with a mix of heartache and anger. “Zhou Ci shouldn’t have grabbed you so hard. 1 should have taught him a lesson!”
Gu Dai smiled and rea.s.sured him, “It’s okay, Third Brother. It only looks severe. I’ll sleep it off tonight, and it will be fine tomorrow morning.”
Meng Zhi opened his mouth to say something, but seeing the exhaustion on Gu Dai’s face, he sighed and said softly, “Rest, Daidai. I’ll wake you up when we get home.”
Gu Dai yawned as soon as she heard the word “rest.” Her fatigue seemed to engulf her, and all she remembered was mumbling a sleepy “Okay” before falling asleep.
Meanwhile, at the largest shopping mall in the capital city.
Jiang Yue held Song Ling’s arm and said with a coy smile, “Song Ling, you’ve already bought me so many clothes. I don’t want any more.”
Song Ling nodded and said, “Let’s go home then.”
Jiang Yue was taken aback but quickly pulled him back. “What 1 meant is we could buy other things, like things we’ll need after we’re married! Let’s get some couple’s items for our bridal suite. It sounds so wonderful just thinking about it.”
Jiang Yue trailed off, lost in her own thoughts.
Song Ling was also lost in thought, but not about their future married life. Instead, he was thinking about Gu Dai..
