"Thank you so much for telling me this. If that's the case, I'm sure you'd be very willing to tell me which hospital your aunt is currently receiving a follow-up visit?"

He Zhao really didn't expect that the woman in front of him named Gu Yan could climb up the pole so skillfully. With such a thick skin, she would probably be able to succeed in whatever she did.

"Excuse me, is this the attitude you should have when asking someone to do something for you, Miss Gu? I'm not like my second brother, who will obey every word you say."

When facing Gu Yan, He Zhao naturally felt a sense of disgust and aversion deep in his heart.

Perhaps even He Zhao himself did not realize that the reason hidden deep in his consciousness was that Gu Yan had deeply hurt He Li seven years ago.

Back then, he witnessed with his own eyes how that seemingly favored child of heaven gradually turned into a lifeless puddle of mud.

Because of this, deep down in his heart, he hated Gu Yan to the extreme.

Gu Yan sighed softly, a helpless look on her face, and slowly said, "Alright, then I'll beg you to do this! As long as you can agree to take me with you, no matter what conditions you put forward, as long as you don't ask me to leave Heli, I will do my best to meet your requirements."

Damn it! This woman actually beat me to the punch when I was about to say something I had prepared.

Well, he originally came here with the intention of watching the fun. Although it is still unclear what exactly happened here, judging from the current situation, the old lady obviously opposed what was going on between them.

About half an hour later, Gu Yan rushed to Jinghai First Hospital.

Then, she followed He Zhao's footsteps and headed straight for the rehabilitation department in Building 4.

However, when Gu Yan was about to reach the door, her steps suddenly stopped, as if she was cast under a spell, and she stood there motionless.

Seeing the woman in front of him suddenly stop, He Zhao couldn't help but feel puzzled and asked, "What's wrong? Are you afraid of seeing my aunt?"

Gu Yan shook her head slightly and explained, "That's not the case. I just think it's not a good idea for us to go in empty-handed. Is there a fruit shop nearby?"

After some thought, Gu Yan realized that if she rushed in so rashly, it would not only make her appear impolite, but also make people think that she did not have good upbringing.

Hearing Gu Yan's words, He Zhao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said with a hint of disdain: "I say, how can you be so pedantic, woman! My aunt doesn't care about these things!"

Although He Zhao said this, he still had a better impression of Gu Yan in his heart. After all, the fact that she could think of these details showed that she was relatively knowledgeable about the ways of the world.

"That's just her personal idea. As for whether to do it or not, the decision is in my hands! Don't hesitate, come with me." As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yan didn't even consider whether He Zhao was willing or not. She stretched out her hand without hesitation, held He Zhao's wrist tightly, and walked quickly towards the hospital entrance.

He Zhao had never expected that one day he would follow a woman like Gu Yan to this seemingly ordinary fruit shop to buy fruit. He muttered to himself, thinking that he was simply bored and making trouble out of nothing, why was he dragged here by this woman in a daze.

As soon as she walked into the store, Gu Yan's eyes were immediately attracted by the neatly displayed fruits.

She swiftly picked up a brightly colored mango, turned to look at He Zhao with great interest, and asked, "Auntie, do you like mangoes?"

Who would have thought that after hearing this, He Zhao's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a mocking smile, and replied mercilessly: "Humph, let me tell you, my aunt is severely allergic to mangoes and dares not touch them!"

Gu Yan was not discouraged by this. She immediately shifted her gaze to the big round watermelon next to her and asked again with anticipation, "How about watermelon? Maybe Auntie would like sweet watermelon."

However, He Zhao still shook his head and said helplessly: "Oh, she doesn't like eating such watery and soupy things."

Gu Yan seemed unwilling to give up. She continued to point at the bunches of crystal clear grapes and asked persistently, "Then there must be nothing wrong with the grapes, right?" Unexpectedly, He Zhao didn't even think about it and blurted out, "She hates spitting out grape skins the most, so she definitely won't eat them."

Just like that, after a few words back and forth, Gu Yan finally realized it - it turned out that He Zhao was just deliberately teasing her!

Thinking of this, she was immediately furious and secretly made up her mind to teach this ungrateful guy a lesson.

So, without saying a word, she angrily packed all the fruits that He Zhao had said were not allowed to be bought into her shopping bag, without leaving any behind.

After paying, Gu Yan struggled to pick up several large bags full of fruits and was about to leave. However, because the quantity she bought was so astonishing, she lost her balance and her body suddenly tilted forward, almost falling to the ground in embarrassment.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, He Zhao was quick-witted and reached out to support her in time, thus avoiding an embarrassing accident.

"How could you be so cruel, woman? Forget it, give it to me now. Look at your petite body, how could you have the strength to lift these things?"

He Zhao shook his head helplessly, muttering to himself while putting on a righteous look.

You know, he is a pampered young man who can't lift or carry anything on his shoulders on normal days, but at this moment, out of humanitarian spirit, he took the initiative to show his gentlemanly demeanor.

He took the bag of fruit which weighed at least 20 to 30 kilograms. At first, he seemed quite relaxed and walked with steady steps, as if the weight was nothing to him.

However, as the journey progressed, he gradually felt a bit exhausted. First his fingers began to feel numb, and then his arms gradually became heavy.

But even so, he still gritted his teeth and persisted, refusing to show weakness.

Gu Yan, who was standing by, saw all of this. She knew in her heart that although this guy was usually very harsh and vicious, he was actually quite kind in his heart.

Thinking of this, she decided to stop this so-called evil punishment.

"Okay, okay, give me some of the bag. It will be easier if we carry it together."

As he spoke, Gu Yan stretched out his hand to take some of the fruit from He Zhao.

Unexpectedly, He Zhao was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and his fur instantly exploded: "No! I said I would take it, so it must be me who takes it. You, a weak little girl, just stand aside and don't make trouble. Humph, I don't want you to turn around and run to my brother to complain about me!"

At this moment, He Zhao actually revealed some of the youthful vigor and stubbornness.

Looking back on how he used to deliberately pretend to be a frivolous playboy and pretend to be mature and serious, it is really hard to agree with him and even makes people feel disgusted.

But now it seems that maybe it was just a disguise he used to protect himself.

Gu Yan sighed helplessly, spread his hands, smiled bitterly and said: "Okay, okay, you are the boss, everything is up to you!" After saying this, the two of them walked silently in front and behind.

Along the way, the atmosphere seemed a bit dull and depressing, as if even the air around them had frozen.

Finally, they arrived at the elevator.

As the elevator door slowly opened, the two walked in one after another.

At this moment, He Zhao, who had been silent all the time, suddenly turned around and stared at Gu Yan.

At this moment, Gu Yan no longer had the relaxed look she had just now, and her face was instead filled with tension and anxiety.

He Zhao couldn't help but think to himself: Gu Yan looked so relaxed just now, but became so nervous in the blink of an eye. There must be a very serious problem.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask, "Hey, if you don't mind, could you tell me what happened? You know, although my aunt looks cold and heartless on the surface, she actually has a softer heart than anyone else. Back then, she was able to accept a child like me, born to a mistress, with tolerance and generosity. So I really don't understand why she would object to you being with her biological son for no reason. You know, my second brother is the apple of her eye! As long as he is happy, she would find a way to pick him, not to mention the moon in the sky, even the stars."

He Zhao's words were like a thunderclap, exploding in Gu Yan's heart, causing her to smile bitterly. She shook her head gently and said slowly, "To be honest, I really don't know anything about the reasons behind this matter. I came here today just to give it a try, wanting to try my best.

No matter what the outcome, I still want to thank you for taking the trouble to bring me to see her. Let me face the rest of the journey alone."

Hearing this, He Zhao's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, and he shouted loudly: "Hey! How can you, woman, be so ungrateful?

After all, I worked hard all the way to help you carry so many heavy things. Even if I don't have any credit, I still worked hard! Moreover, as a junior, it is only natural for me to come and visit my aunt. What reason do you have to stop me?"

After hearing this, Gu Yan sighed helplessly and thought to herself, "Oh, it seems I really overestimated him before. I thought he would really help me. I didn't expect this guy to be a troublemaker who just wants to stir up trouble!"

Thinking of this, she glared at He Zhao fiercely, but in the end she could do nothing about him and could only let him go with her.
