283 Guo Guo
The old man paused and seemed to have thought of something. He hurriedly promised.
“Miss, don’t worry. I’ll definitely pay you. I won’t delay the payment.”
Gu Man did not respond to him. She would only know if her illness could be treated after she went in.
The wooden door creaked unpleasantly. There was only a table and two beds inside.
The girl was sitting beside the table, closing the laptop on the table that was incompatible with the surroundings.
She looked in the old man’s direction. When she saw Gu Man and Jiang Yi behind him, she frowned and had a maturity that did not match her age.
“This granddaughter of mine doesn’t have any hobbies, she just likes to play with computers. This is the only valuable thing we have.”
“Grandpa, who are they? Are they here to collect debts?”
The girl came to the old man’s side and held his arm, looking in Gu Man’s direction warily.
She knew that the old man had borrowed money everywhere for her illness, but hadn’t she already paid off the debt for her grandfather? She had never seen these people.
Wariness immediately rose in the girl’s eyes. She narrowed her eyes and sized up Gu Man and Jiang Yi.
“Guo Guo, be good. Grandpa found her to treat your illness.”
“Grandpa, I know you’re worried about me, but there’s no need to resort to desperate measures.”
Hearing the old man’s words, a disdainful expression appeared on the girl’s face because neither of the two people opposite her looked like doctors with superb medical skills.
“Guo Guo you can’t be like this. She was recommended by Dr. w.a.n.g. You know Dr. w.a.n.g, right?”
The girl called Guo Guo did have some impression of Doctor w.a.n.g.
She had a good impression of Doctor w.a.n.g because he usually helped her a lot. However, looking at the two people in front of her, Guo Guo was a little puzzled. Did Doctor w.a.n.g take the wrong medicine? He recommended two young people to treat her illness.
Although age could not determine a person’s abilities, medical skills depended on experience.
“I don’t know what you told Dr. w.a.n.g, but I don’t need you to treat my illness.”
Guo Guo’s intention of chasing her away was very obvious. Jiang Yi did not want Gu Man to get involved in this mess. Seeing that Guo Guo was not polite at all, he pulled Gu Man away.
“Miss, you promised me.”
Gu Man broke free from Jiang Yi’s hand and shook her wrist, looking at Jiang Yi impatiently.
“Don’t make decisions for me without my permission.”
It was unknown if it was because she had been a little easygoing recently, but Jiang Yi actually started to touch her.
Jiang Yi looked down at his fingertips and trembled slightly. He tightened his grip and remained silent.
Gu Man did not care about his emotions and turned to look at the old man and Guo Guo.
To be precise, he was looking at the notebook on the table behind them.
As soon as she entered, her watch began to vibrate. When she looked down just now, she realized that the device that had investigated her IP was nearby, and this laptop was probably the only thing in front of her that was uninhabited within a hundred miles.
Her gaze landed on Guo Guo with an intriguing expression. She did not expose her ident.i.ty directly. Instead, she looked at the old man. “Since I’ve promised you, I’ll definitely do it.”
When the old man heard this, an excited expression appeared on his face. He ignored Guo Guo’s reluctance and pulled her to sit on the small bed.
“Guo Guo went to many doctors for this illness, but they all said that there’s nothing wrong with her body, but how could I not know if there’s a problem? Seeing her suffer more and more because of this illness, as her grandfather, I feel terrible.”
The old man rubbed Guo Guo’s head with heartache and sighed one after another.
“Grandpa, I told you I’m fine.”
Guo Guo frowned. Even with the old man’s explanation, she still did not believe the person in front of her. Gu Man looked younger than Jiang Yi.
“Don’t force yourself. Listen to Grandpa. Grandpa’s only wish is for you to recover from your illness.”
As if touched by the old man’s words, Guo Guo sighed heavily.
“Grandpa.”
Gu Man interrupted their emotional exchange. If this continued, when would it be her turn to treat her illness?
