Old Madam asked, “Did you just wake up?”
“Ah,” Gu Mang responded. She roughly guessed the reason for Granny Lu’s phone call.
Last night, she had not thought about keeping things low key so she guessed that news about it had spread to the Lu residence.
It was just that she did not expect Granny Lu’s tone to be like this. It was as if she did not find Gu Mang’s actions to be reckless.
To be honest, even if Lu Wu and the others were not there, Jiangsui would have brought his n over.
“I heard that sothing happened to your friend. How is she now?” Granny Lu asked amiably.
Gu Mang was silent for a second before she answered softly, “She has regained consciousness.”
“That’s good.” Granny Lu had not finished sighing when she suddenly thought of sothing and asked, “What about you? You didn’t injure yourself when you took action last night, did you?”
A doctor’s hand must not be injured.
Gu Mang said nothing.
“Why won’t you answer ? Did you hurt yourself?” Granny Lu felt anxious as she asked.
Gu Mang licked her lips and said, “Nah, I haven’t gotten injured from beating others up in a long ti.”
Granny Lu had no reaction to the second half of her sentence at all. Instead, she advised her, “You should still be careful. Next ti, let the subordinates do the rough work. You just have to watch.”
There was silence for two seconds.
“Okay,” Gu Mang responded.
She hung up and put the phone aside casually.
She supported herself by holding onto both sides of the wash basin. Her gaze stopped on the phone for a few seconds and she laughed lightly. Then, she turned on the tap and began to wash up.
...
At the affiliated hospital.
The four walls of the ward were white. They looked clean and cold.
ng Jinyang’s head was wrapped with bandages and she leaned on the bed with her both hands pressed on the blanket.
Her face looked pale from blood loss and the slap mark had not faded yet. Part of her hair covered it. Her eyelids were drooping as well.
She had been sitting like this ever since the doctors checked on her and found out that her life was not in danger. No one knew what she was thinking.
Jiang Shenyuan poured a glass of warm water and placed it in her hand. Then, he sat by her bed. “Jinyang, drink so water.”
He accidentally touched her finger. The girl shivered slightly and retreated.
Jiang Shenyuan frowned. He did not say anything but he kept his distance from her calmly.
It was a distance that she deed safe.
ng Jinyang’s expression relaxed slightly. She hesitated and grabbed the cup of water. Her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible. “Thank you.”
Jiang Shenyuan smiled and made his tone sound relaxed. “There’s no need to be so polite with .”
ng Jinyang looked up. There was no expression in her eyes.
She looked at him for a few seconds and said, “Big Brother Jiang, I’m fine now. You should return to school for class.”
He had Criminal Law class during second period.
Jiang Shenyuan answered, “I applied for leave. I don’t feel safe leaving you in the hospital alone.”
ng Jinyang said, “Thank you.”
Suddenly, she thought of the weekend mock trial competition and looked at Jiang Shenyuan. “Brother Jiang, I can’t volunteer at the competition site anymore. The volunteer card was also broken by Sang Xue. Is it too late to get soone to replace now?”
It was a rare opportunity. Since she could not go now, she hoped another student could. The spot could not be wasted.
“The system will make another arrangent,” Jiang Shenyuan answered. “Rest well.”
ng Jinyang nodded and stared into space again. The ward beca quiet again.
After a while, there were two knocks on the door of the ward.
Jiang Shenyuan looked at the door. “Co in.”
The door opened. Gu Mang and Lu Chengzhou entered.
Yu Mufeng, Qin Yaozhi, and others followed behind them. They had fruits and flowers in hand as well as so health supplents for blood nourishnt.
When ng Jinyang saw Gu Mang, her eyes lit up. In the next second, she recalled the broken jade and the glow in her eyes subsided. She pinched her fingers subconsciously.
She pursed her lips a little and greeted them with a smile.
