Jiang Ruotang had been lying on the crack of the door, trying to eavesdrop on the movements in the room, and didn't even notice when his back started to ache.

The facilities in the superior wards are all made of top-quality materials, and the sound insulation is of course very good as well.

So she heard nothing but the approaching footsteps and the mechanical friction of the doorknob turning.

She quickly stood at attention, and if conditions permitted, she might even salute the person who opened the door.

“Are you done?”

A curious and gossipy smile appeared on his face, and his eyes quickly ran into the ward.

Before he could see what was going on inside, Su Huai slammed the door shut with a loud "snap".

"I'll settle the score with you later."

Su Huai pointed at Jiang Ruotang's nose, his eyes colder than ever before.

Jiang Ruotang pursed her lips and said in a flattering tone: "Hey, didn't I tell you not to regret it? Can you blame me for this?"

"Hello, Aunt Gu."

As Su Huai spoke, he made a gesture to Jiang Ruotang to keep quiet, and then walked towards his office.

The corners of his white coat fluttered in the wind, and the spots on his abdomen had not completely disappeared.

Jiang Ruotang had no choice. She really wanted to open the door and go in to see what was going on with Gu Yu, but she couldn't ignore Su Huai, so she could only sigh and follow him.

"You mean... in the afternoon...?"

Su Huai frowned, perhaps too surprised, so he repeated Gu's mother's words again.

From time to time, she heard the greetings of nurses and junior doctors, but she had no time to pay attention to them, and her pace unconsciously quickened.

"Yes, Yanshu's sister's condition hasn't improved, so I want to put this matter on the agenda, the sooner the better."

"I did what you asked me to do with your father's company. Did you..."

Mother Gu didn't continue with the rest of the conversation. We are all smart people and we can understand some things immediately.

After thinking calmly for a moment, Su Huai touched the tear stain on his lower abdomen, his eyes darkened: "Okay, I'll go there this afternoon."

So much happened in just one hour.

He pushed the office door open with great force, and the crash was extremely loud, as if the air was released.

Jiang Ruotang was panting heavily, supporting his waist with one hand and the wall with the other. He was startled just as he was about to speak.

"It's not Su Huai. After all these years, you still can't forget her?!"

The powerful impact caused the door to bounce back. She reached out to steady it, and after entering the office, she turned around and closed it with a "click".

When I turned around again, Su Huai was already sitting upright in his office chair, expressionless, with a slightly furrowed brow as if he was thinking about something important.

Jiang Ruotang sighed and sat down opposite her, wanting to point at her nose and scold her for being useless.

All the words he wanted to say were blocked by Su Huai's words, "Why didn't you tell me that it was Gu Yu inside?"

After a long silence, Jiang Ruotang expressed his disagreement.

"Even if I told you, are you sure you wouldn't go in?"

There’s no point in not going in!

Su Huai has always been an open-minded person. It was Gu Yu's fault back then, so if anyone should feel guilty, it should be Gu Yu. She would never hide from anyone.

"Okay, I admit it. Even if you told me that, I would still go in."

After Su Huai finished speaking, he did not look at Jiang Ruotang. He kicked the ground with his feet and turned the chair 90 degrees to face the window.

The sun is shining brightly in the shade of green trees.

Jiang Ruotang opened his eyes and was about to say something to persuade her, but was shocked by her cold words and turned around in place.

"I'm getting married this afternoon."

"Snapped"

The phone that I had been holding in my hand fell to the ground, and a small crack appeared on the edge of the screen, but no one cared.

Jiang Ruotang widened her eyes, stood up, walked briskly to Su Huai, and looked down at him condescendingly.

"What did you say?! Get married? Su Huai, it's been seven years. Even if you see her, you won't get married out of spite, right?"

She held the armrests of the office chair with both hands and restrained Su Huai between her arms.

Su Huai's expression was indifferent, and the word "marriage" he said lightly seemed to be referring not to himself but to someone else.

"You think too much. It's just an exchange of interests."

Then she told Jiang Ruotang the important things that had happened in the past few days.

Jiang Ruotang was so angry after hearing this: "What?! If you don't come to me, I'll ask my dad to investigate!"

She has been friends with Su Huai for many years, and she often went to Su's house when she was in school.

Su Minghua is extremely enthusiastic towards his daughter's friends, and Jiang Ruotang is no exception.

She still remembers that Uncle Su drove to the wholesale market dozens of kilometers away to buy the freshest durian just because she said she hadn't eaten durian for a long time.

When he accompanied them shopping, he would give all the remaining money he had to the homeless.

Treat others with sincerity and keep promises with integrity.

Su Minghua started out as a penniless boy who couldn't even afford to support his wife during childbirth, and he has come a long way to achieve what he has today. He knows very well how difficult it is for people at the bottom of society.

It is really hard to convince people that such a person would take human life for a little profit.

Su Huai sighed, and under Jiang Ruotang's relentless pursuit, he had to look into her eyes.

"With the Gu family's investment, my father's situation has stabilized. We'll just have to wait for the court's decision later."

The worst outcome is sentencing, but this is usually a suspended sentence.

Probation does not require serving time in prison. As long as you behave yourself and do not commit crimes during the sentence, it is just a punishment on your reputation.

For her father, who has been in the detention center countless times, it is no big deal.

But - Su Huai's eyes moved, how could she want her father to be sentenced?

The two of them stopped talking, and their eyes often told it all.

Jiang Ruotang didn't dare to sigh, for fear that the negative impact of sighing would make Su Huai's mood worse.

As for Su Huai and Gu Yanshu's marriage, she knew clearly that Su Huai did not love Gu Yanshu.

But last time, Gu Yanshu personally apologized and dealt with the online public opinion, proving that she is also a responsible person.

The entertainment industry is a big melting pot with all kinds of people. I just hope Gu Yanshu is really like what she appears to be.

The two of them went to Wang Fulou for lunch. Jiang Ruotang insisted on paying the bill despite the risk of being investigated, using the excuse of congratulating the newlyweds.

She knew that contract marriages were shameful in themselves and could not be celebrated in a grand manner, not to mention Gu Yanshu's identity.

Ugh...

Jiang Ruotang couldn't help but feel sad for her friend. In the eyes of ordinary people, marriage is a very serious matter. It not only requires the consent of both parents, but also the witness and blessings of relatives and friends.

Especially when he heard that Su Huai was planning to hide this matter from Su Minghua, he felt mixed emotions.

If Su Minghua knew, he would definitely rather the company go bankrupt than let his daughter make such a meaningless sacrifice.

It was Friday, and after lunch, Su Huai returned to the hospital to hold a meeting and communicate with the leaders above.

Throughout the entire meeting, how could Wen Liya, who was in a high position and was used to observing people's words and expressions, not notice Su Huai's strangeness?

So after the meeting, she called Su Huai.

"Tell me, what happened? Why did someone suddenly pull you away this morning? What's your relationship with the patient in Ward 2? Why do I need to see you alone?"

The most taboo thing in the medical profession is to bring personal feelings into work.

Today, in front of the leaders of the capital, as well as so many city leaders and hospital leaders, Su Huai’s courage can be said to be very big.

Su Huai realized that Wen Liya was determined to get to the bottom of the matter, so she put on a flattering smile.

"I'm sorry for making you worry. Today..."

She hesitated for a rare moment, knowing that she could not escape Wen Liya's eyes that had seen countless people, so she decided to just go for it.

"The person who pulled me away was my friend, and the patient in the ward was my ex-girlfriend."

After hearing this, Wen Liya's mouth corners straightened up, and she had the urge to kick her. After scolding her for a few words, she finally let her go.

Looking at Su Huaiyuan's back, she lowered her head, with a few strands of silver hair hanging on her temples.

In this world, the word "love" is the only one that has no solution.

I didn’t expect that even such an outstanding student was not spared.
