Chapter 769: Chapter 761: The Firefighter Chapter 769: Chapter 761: The Firefighter Tang Yuxin stopped in her tracks and turned around, only to see the others quickly looking away and avoiding eye contact as if she were so sort of ghost.
She shoved her hands into her pockets, her mood utterly rotten.
Suddenly, her stomach growled.
She needed to eat.
But she had no desire to eat in the hospital.
Just seeing the hospital staff would remind her of her foolish little sister, who nearly starved her own child.
She had never seen such a foolish woman.
...
Despite being a dical student, if this was what her learning had amounted to, it would be better not to be a doctor at all, lest she ends up killing soone and having to atone for it.
Without even changing her clothes, she headed straight for the dining hall across the way to scrounge up a al.
When she arrived, she walked in unhindered.
As the owner’s wife, this wasn’t her first or second visit, and the security guards outside recognized her, so there was no need for identity verification.
She made a beeline for the dining hall, converting her grief and anger into an appetite.
Otherwise, she feared she would be too upset to eat.
She found a spot to sit at random.
There weren’t many people around yet, and she sat at a table by herself.
But even if there were others, they likely wouldn’t want to share a table with her, primarily because her face was so fiercely uninviting—repelling strangers, a fact even a fool could discern.
Yet soone did dare to directly take the seat opposite her.
Tang Yuxin looked up and, upon seeing who it was, the gloom in her eyes dissipated sowhat,
“Why are you here?” she said, fiddling with her fingers to avoid scratching the walls in irritation.
“I knew you’d be here today,” Gu Ning reached out to smooth her hair, taming the nearly upright strands one by one.
“It’s been a long ti since I’ve seen you this angry.”
Gu Ning smiled and tucked her hair behind her ear, “Don’t be angry.
Look, you’ve scared everyone away.”
Tang Yuxin huffed twice, clearly not over her anger.
And no wonder—it was as if her entire value system was being destroyed.
Her calm was a testant to her strong willpower.
“I’ll go get so food for you,” Gu Ning shook his head.
When Tang Yuxin lost her temper, even her father-in-law was afraid.
Otherwise, his uncle wouldn’t have co to him pleading for help.
And he had to help, even if he didn’t want to—he couldn’t just watch Tang Yuxin anger herself to death.
He went to the dining hall and brought back two servings of food, placing them on the table.
Then he pushed a pair of chopsticks into Tang Yuxin’s hands.
Alright, eat up.
Tang Yuxin grabbed the chopsticks and listlessly shoveled rice into her mouth, even including the carrots, which she usually hated the most, without picking them out.
“What was she thinking?” she finally couldn’t help herself and began to complain to Gu Ning.
“I even wonder if I’m dealing with an impostor, when she was little she was so smart and adorable, went along with everything I said, avoided whover I told her to avoid.
Now look at her, what’s gotten into her?
Has eating too much fish turned her brains into an aquarium?
It’s one thing to have a baby but to starve herself to lose weight?
Have you ever seen such a woman?”
Gu Ning was actually gobsmacked as he listened; he hadn’t known about these matters.
Of course, once his initial shock wore off, he couldn’t help but shake his head, torn between laughter and tears.

A common layperson would know better, and yet, Tang Sisi, a dical student, could make such a rookie mistake.
It seed that Tang Yuxin was more incensed about the prospect of Tang Sisi starving her child than the pregnancy itself.
The more Tang Yuxin talked, the angrier she got and the more she talked, the angrier she beca.
She sounded like a child grumbling about Tang Sisi’s foolishness.
Finally, having voiced her frustrations, she felt much better.
Having cald down, she now began picking out the carrots from her rice, signaling her return to reason.
“Feel any better?” Gu Ning asked Tang Yuxin while straightening her hair.
Tang Yuxin gently bumped her forehead against Gu Ning’s arm, a sign of assent.
The rage inside her had considerably subsided.
These past days, she’d felt so temperantal she thought she was nearing nopause, every day filled with homicidal thoughts.
After finishing her bowl of rice, her stomach full and her anger half gone, a small smile finally graced her face.
“Did you know that Dabai and Xiaobai are teething?”
Gu Ning said with a smile to Tang Yuxin.
The nicknas for their two sons were Dabai and Xiaobai.
Their formal nas—one chosen by their father and the other by Tang Zhinian—were equally distributed, with no bias towards either side, which certainly pleased everyone involved.
Dabai, being the elder, was nad Gu Ming, and Xiaobai was called Gu Yu.
The Gu family had not adopted the convention of three-character nas; their nas were all two characters, sothing Tang Yuxin appreciated.
The Gu surna was not among the common ones, so the likelihood of having the sa na as another was rare.
They were nothing like the ubiquitous Zhang, Wang, Li, Zhao, where duplicate nas were the norm.
Thus, the children should feel fortunate they were born into the Gu family, sparing them from overly complicated nas which could make them cry just writing them.
“They’re teething?” Tang Yuxin really hadn’t noticed.
The children were being looked after by Tang Zhinian and Grandpa Gu, each taking care of one grandchild.
They disapproved of the air quality in Beijing and had gone to live in the old Tang village.
The Lin family couple took Qiqi as well, since they were planning to refurbish the graves of Tang Yuxin’s grandparents, aning the whole group had gone back.
They were so reluctant to leave the grandchildren that they didn’t even tell Tang Yuxin, taking the kids with them under the pretext of a visit.
Tang Yuxin surmised that it was clearly a deliberate boast to the villagers.
The boys were growing teeth, and Tang Yuxin, propping up her face, tapped the table with her chopsticks.
It was probably ti to start them on so solid food.
“Right, let’s feed them so mashed carrots.” Tang Yuxin herself detested carrots, but she knew they were nutritious, so the boys would have to suffer a little.
She was now grateful that they had gone first; had they been ho and learned of the ss Tang Sisi had caused, she feared the house would have exploded in chaos.
With her father’s current temperant, he’d probably storm the school and tear the nonsensical boy to pieces.
Right now, Tang Zhijun had other things on his mind since he had his wife and daughter to look after.
He was simply too busy to seek revenge.
Indeed, Tang Yuxin tapped the table again, thinking who could it be?
Why hadn’t there been a single piece of news from Tang Sisi?
