Gu Chen, who had finished the operation, had not woken up yet. He was lying alone on the hospital bed.
“Should we contact the Gu family?” Lu Shan asked, a little reluctant.
“Contact who? Old Master Gu? He was already half-buried. If he was called over, he’ll would probably be in the coffin.” Shen Yan sighed.
Shen Xi also sighed at the side. He was all alone and looked quite pitiful. In the end, Shen Yan still contacted Gu Chen’s a.s.sistant. When Qian Tong came panting, Lu Shan looked at Qian Tong suspiciously and asked, “And you
Qian Tong politely nodded at Shen Xi and the others, then said, “I’m Master
Gu t s a.s.sistant, Qian Tong.”
Lu Shan sized Qian Tong up and said with a puzzled expression, “l remember that Qian Tong doesn’t look like you.”
After all, they were all business people. There would be times when the Lu family and the Gu family would meet.
Therefore, Lu Shan was certain that this Qian Tong was not the Qian Tong she had seen before.
Qian Tong smiled at them and said, “The previous a.s.sistant Qian resigned, so I took over from him. Because Master Gu was used to calling me that, or perhaps because he was nostalgic, he kept calling me Qian Tong by mistake, so I tacitly agreed. It’s just a code name. It’s fine.”
“l didn’t expect President Gu to be such a sincere person.” The Lu family smiled and greeted.
“Since you’re here, we’ll go back first.” Shen Yan said politely.
“I’ll have to trouble you guys tonight. It’s just that my master still had an accident today and is currently not awake, so 1 might need to find Miss Shen Xi to understand the situation later on. I hope that I won’t disturb Miss Shen Xi.” Qian Tong said politely.
Shen Xi smiled. “Why would it be troublesome? I’ll cooperate at any time. When Gu Chen wakes up, tell him that my parents and I will come to see him another day. At that time, we would definitely prepare a generous gift and thank him in person for saving my life.”
“Young Lady Shen Xi is too polite. I think that Master Gu must think that Young Lady Shen Xi is more important than his life, so he is willing to stand in front of Young Lady Shen Xi. I think if Master Gu sees that Miss Shen Xi is safe the first time he opens his eyes, he would be very happy.” Qian Tong looked at Shen Xi respectfully.
Lu Shan’s expression turned cold. Qian Tong was clearly using the reason why Gu Chen saved Shen Xi as a private relationship between the two of them. He even hinted that Shen Xi should stay.
Lu Shan did not like Gu Chen. She also knew that Shen Xi did not have any feelings for Gu Chen. Naturally, she did not want Gu Chen to ask for favours. Moreover, there was something strange about this matter. Perhaps it was as Guan Lei said, and Gu Chen was inextricably involved.
If that was the case, how could Lu Shan leave Shen Xi here?
Lu Shan stood in front of Shen Xi and said to Qian Tong, “The Gu family is a loyal family. I think Gu Chen help anyone who is in danger today. Such upbringing is worthy of our Lu family’s admiration.”
Shen Yan just looked at Qian Tong coldly and said, “It’s getting late. We won’t disturb Young Master Gu e s rest. Let’s go.”
Shen Xi’s eyes sized up Qian Tong before nodding and bidding farewell to him. Qian Tong said to the Shen family of three, “Take care, everyone.”
After Shen Xi and the others left, Gu Chen, who had his eyes closed, slowly opened them.
Qian Tong heard the sound and turned to look at Gu Chen. Then, he stood respectfully beside Gu Chen’s bed and said, “Master Gu.”
Gu Chen did not say anything, but the corners of his mouth curled up into a bitter smile. It turned out that he could not make Shen Xi stay like this.
He thought that Shen Xi would at least stay by his side and wait for him to wake up with a worried expression, just like the scenes in many TV dramas,
Why didn’t Shen Xi do this? This shouldn’t be right.
Gu Chen closed his eyes tiredly. Shen Xi’s voice and appearance appeared in front of his eyes, and he could not get rid of them.
When Shen Xi returned home with his parents, Guan Lei had already been waiting in the living room for a while.
Seeing Shen Xi and the other two return, Guan Lei hurriedly stood up with a smile on his face.
Shen Yan was not in a good mood. He did not know what was going on, but those annoying fellas always wanted to steal his daughter away.
“Uncle, Auntie, I found Xi’s phone that was stolen.” Guan Lei smiled.
Guan Lei handed Shen Xi’s phone to her and said, “Take a look at your phone.
Is it broken or is there something missing?”
Shen Xi checked her phone and said happily, “No, everything is fine inside..’!
