Oops! The sickly Mr. Gu fainted again

Gu Yuchen's action made Ye Xingyao completely forget the question she was going to ask to the end.

She called Jin Ran over for another follow-up examination, and after making sure there was no problem, Jin Ran gave him an IV nutrient solution.

Gu Yuchen was afraid that Ye Xingyao would ask him again about how he got injured, so he simply told her that he was sleepy and wanted to sleep, and then closed his eyes to rest.

Seeing that his breathing was smooth and his face was not so pale, Ye Xingyao suddenly felt dizzy and went back to the accompanying room to take a nap.

Gu Yuchen opened his eyes only when he heard no more noise around him.

He picked up his phone and sent a message to Anke:

[We are going to sign a contract with the German Chamber of Commerce this week. Is it going smoothly? 】

An Ke was worrying about this matter in the office when she received the message from Mr. Gu.

The negotiations with the German Chamber of Commerce went smoothly and the contract could have been signed this week. However, the other party's CEO suddenly asked to meet with Mr. Gu tomorrow, saying that it was related to the future strategic development of the two companies and even the two countries, and the detailed business content must be discussed with Mr. Gu himself.

An Ke was worrying about how to tell Mr. Gu about this, after all, Mr. Gu had just been to the hospital last night. She knew that Mr. Gu's current condition was definitely not suitable for meeting the CEO of Party A.

After a moment's hesitation, Anke replied: "Mr. Gu, Mr. Snyder wants to meet with you tomorrow. He wants to discuss some strategic business issues with you. Do you want to postpone it?"

Gu Yuchen quickly replied: [Tomorrow, please confirm the time and place]

After seeing the news, An Ke couldn't help but worry about Mr. Gu: [Mr. Gu, are you sure it's okay? Mr. Snyder is very satisfied with our plan. How about I try to meet him next week? ]

【Tomorrow, no mistakes are allowed.】

An Ke's hands were sweating after seeing this message. She knew that Mr. Gu could not drink, but when meeting the boss of Party A, the venue must not be too rude.

Suddenly, an idea came to my mind. A new Chinese-style tea garden has opened on the North Mountain. The environment is elegant and quiet, and the decoration is retro Chinese style. If I invite Mr. Snyder here, I don't have to drink, and I can let him feel entertained in the name of experiencing Chinese culture.

So I immediately contacted Mr. Snyder's assistant to discuss the meeting.

the next day.

Gu Yuchen was looking at the location that An Ke sent him, and was thinking about how to tell Ye Xingyao that he was going out, but unexpectedly Ye Xingyao spoke first.

"Gu Yuchen, I have something to do at noon and I have to go out for a while. But it shouldn't be too late, I'll come over when I'm done." Ye Xingyao felt a little guilty when she spoke.

She was going to see Ji Yan, but she couldn't tell him that she was going to see Ji Yan.

After all, the two of them are business rivals, not to mention they had just had an unpleasant argument over Ji Yan last time.

"Okay, just go and do your thing, don't worry about me." Gu Yuchen breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he finally didn't have to make up excuses.

Ye Xingyao took a look at the location Ji Yan gave her, Beishan Tea Garden.

She was doubtful for a moment, thinking that Ji Yan actually liked such fresh and elegant things.

-

Beishan Tea Garden.

Ji Yan had arrived here a long time ago. He slowly made tea while waiting for Ye Xingyao to arrive.

"Sorry, I'm late." As soon as Ye Xingyao entered the teahouse, a waiter dressed in Hanfu pulled a chair for her and arranged the tea set for her.

When Ji Yan saw Ye Xingyao coming, his eyes became warm and the corners of his mouth raised.

"Yaoyao, it's never too late. I will wait for you."

Ye Xingyao had just sat down when she couldn't help but ask, "Brother Ji Yan, you said you had something important to tell me, what is it?"

Ji Yan was not in a hurry, and he did not stop making tea. He kept smiling and said slowly:

"Don't worry, try this first."

As he said that, he poured Ye Xingyao a cup of tea.

"This is the authentic Taiping Houkui tea, please try it." Ji Yan was still smiling while speaking, just like his aura, always warm and gentlemanly.

Ye Xingyao picked up the teacup and took a sip. It was indeed cool in the mouth, with a mellow and sweet taste.

Ji Yan watched her drink the tea, then he said slowly: "You and...Gu Yuchen are together?"

Ye Xingyao was a little surprised. She didn't expect that he called her over to ask this question.

"Yaoyao, I told you that you will be in danger if you stay with him." Ji Yan stared at Ye Xingyao while speaking, but the corners of his mouth were still raised, making the listeners feel calmer when hearing these uncomfortable words coming out of his mouth.

"Brother Ji Yan, Gu Yuchen...he is very protective of me."

Ye Xingyao was a little doubtful. This was the second time Ji Yan had said the same thing to her.

What does it mean to be dangerous around him?

What danger could there be in Gu Yuchen? Why would it be dangerous to be with him?

At this moment, she was facing Ji Yan, whom she had secretly loved for many years when she was a child, and she had complicated feelings in her heart.

Gu Yuchen happened to arrive at the tea garden at this time.

He was about to go to the front hall to see Mr. Snyder, but he looked up and saw Ji Yan in the accordion in the distance. Following the direction of Ji Yan's gaze, he moved his eyes to the side and saw the girl opposite Ji Yan.

My heart trembled.

Ye Xingyao?

She said she had something to do at noon, but it turned out that she secretly came to see Ji Yan without telling me?

Gu Yuchen suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart. She could leave him who just came out of the emergency room yesterday and run out to see Ji Yan without telling him. The light in his eyes seemed to dim a little, and his heart seemed to be cut by a sharp reef, which hurt a little.

He stood there and watched from a distance as Ji Yan made tea for her. Ji Yan had an obvious smile on his face, and his eyes were clearly filled with tenderness and tenderness towards the girl opposite him.

Gu Yuchen looked unusually calm, yet he seemed to be in a desolate ruin. A chill spread from the bottom of his heart, flowing through his blood from head to toe, making him feel as if the air around him was frozen and suffocating and cold.

He watched Ji Yan talking to Ye Xingyao with a smile, and smiled bitterly in his heart. The girl he wanted to protect at all costs, regardless of his own health, was actually drinking tea and chatting with his competitor, and the conversation was so heated.

A strong pain came over him, so much so that his fingertips trembled slightly, but he remained calm. After a long while, he took out his cell phone and called Ye Xingyao, staring at the girl in the distance and observing her every move.

The call is connected.

"Where are you?" Gu Yuchen stared at Ye Xingyao with a serious brow and asked coldly.

"I... am having dinner with friends..." Ye Xingyao avoided the question and answered it irrelevantly, with a tone that showed obvious guilt.

Gu Yuchen's eyes froze for a moment, emitting a bit of chill. The pain in his stomach also became clearer.

friend.

"Where are you, and with which friend?" Gu Yuchen continued to watch from afar as Ji Yan made tea for her, and felt a slight pain in his heart.

"Just...classmates...near the school."

When Ye Xingyao said this, Ji Yan, who was sitting opposite her, paused for a moment, and the smile on his face froze for a moment. He seemed to be somewhat surprised by Ye Xingyao's lie. Then he quickly regained his composure.

When Gu Yuchen heard her lie, his knuckles holding the phone suddenly tightened a little, silently exerting force until his fingertips turned white. His brain buzzed, and there was a blank for a few seconds.

"Okay... Be safe and come back early." Gu Yuchen didn't expose her and quickly hung up the phone. He looked at the picture of the two people sitting together, and his heart felt like it was split open, bitter and strong. The nerves in his body seemed to collapse in the silence, and he stood there in a daze, feeling that his heart and body were trembling.

Countless emotions were surging in his eyes: loneliness, disappointment, heartache, and helplessness.

His eyes became deeper, and it was as if a bitter liquid seeped out of his heart and invaded his body, and his whole body was filled with bitterness and coldness that he could clearly feel. It was as if there was a thousand-pound stone pressing heavily on his heart, and he suddenly felt that his whole body was aching from being pressed.

A few minutes later, a hint of coldness suddenly flashed across his eyes, and he strode towards the main hall without looking around.
