Chapter 172 - Are You Sick?
Chapter 172: Are You Sick?
Pei Xin was expressionless. “Do you think this is your house?”
Gu Chu was unashamed. “If you don’t do it, I won’t talk to you.”
“Fine.” Pei Xin gritted his teeth.
He washed his hands and peeled the prawns for her. “Starting from tomorrow, you have to watch what you eat. A week after the surgery, you can eat liquid food. After a month, you can eat normally but avoid spicy food.”
“Okay.” Gu Chu bit on her chopsticks. “How long will it take for me to...”
Have sex again?
Pei Xin was puzzled. “To?”
Gu Chu couldn’t get the question out of her mouth. She decided to look it up on the internet later. “It’s nothing. What do you want to talk to me about?”
This time, it was Pei Xin’s turn to ask.
He thought of the blood type report and the way Mr. and Mrs. Gu treated Gu Chu for the past twenty years. Gu Chu was pampered in the family before Gu Wan came back.
He liked to bully Gu Chu before because he did not like the fact that she was so spoiled. Therefore, who would have known that she was not…
However, he should not be the one to say this.
Pei Xin changed the topic. “Anyway, since you’re having the surgery, do you want to have your appendix removed as well?”
What?
Gu Chu raised her eyes. “Are you sick?”
Why would she want to be stabbed twice?
Pei Xin put the peeled shrimp into his mouth and took a wet towel to wipe his hands. “I’m going to work.”
“...”
Pei Xin swaggered off.
Gu Chu was done with him. “I have two cousins, but why is there such a big difference between them? Lu Shen is so nice, he even gave me a car!”
Pei Xin stopped in his tracks and turned around. “The laparoscopy won’t hurt much, so I won’t give you anesthesia, ok? You don’t think I’m good anyway.”
Gu Chu: “?”
Pei Xin turned around and left.
However, he did not return to the department directly. Instead, he turned into an empty ward, closed the door, and gave his mother a call.
He could not handle this matter, so it was better to leave it to the elders.
Pei Xin’s mother was rather surprised to receive the call at this time. “Son, why are you calling me at this time?”
“Lunch break.” Pei Xin walked straight to the bedside, forgetting the fact that although there was no one else in the room, there was a closed laptop on the bed.
Feng Jia happened to be working in this room, washing his hands in the bathroom. Just as he was about to go out, he heard Pei Xin’s voice.
“Do you know if my aunt’s blood type is B or O?”
His mother was stunned. “Your father said that both of them are blood type B. Why are you asking about this?”
She was blood type B, which meant that Mr. Gu was blood type O.
So, the problem was with Mrs. Gu?
Pei Xin suddenly felt that he knew too much.
He pinched the space between his eyebrows and said, “Gu Chu has been in my hospital recently. Her blood type is...”
Feng Jia listened to the conversation. His hand was still on the handle, but he did not move it.
After Mrs. Pei heard her son’s words, she was stunned for a long time. Her tone suddenly became serious. “You must not tell anyone else about this, let alone Gu Chu. I’ll call your aunt.”
“Okay,” Pei Xin said.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Feng Jia walked out of the bathroom. Looking at the tightly shut door, he frowned slightly, pursed his thin lips, and his eyes were filled with emotions.
This afternoon, Feng Jia did not go back to Gu Chu’s ward.
Gu Chu thought that he was working, so she did not think much of it. She was also busy with her own work.
She called Xiao Chen from the Department of Commerce to handle her work. She was going to have the surgery the day after tomorrow, so of course, she had to do as much as she could.
Xiao Chen took some time out of his busy schedule and sent a message to the department group that did not have Gu Chu in it, “I will never complain about being busy with work again. The director is still on IV drip and she will be entering the operating theater the day after tomorrow, yet she is still working, I really respect her.”
“Respect + 1”
“Respect + 2”
“Respect + N”
Before she knew it, it was evening. Gu Chu’s work had come to an end. She closed the computer and said to Xiao Chen, “Bring the documents that need to be signed tomorrow afternoon. Don’t come the day after tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Xiao Chen packed his things and went back.
Gu Chu lay back on the bed and called Feng Jia. “Haven’t you finished your work yet?”
“I’ve ordered food and sent it over. You eat first. I still need two more hours. If you need anything, call the nurse,” he replied immediately.
Gu Chu clicked her tongue.
Before this, he had never left her side. But after some time he was longer as zealous. Now, he actually disappeared for an entire afternoon.
