Song Can, seeing him speak like that, knew that saying more would be of no use, so she could only let it go. She had to ask He Ming to take good care of him. He Ming assured her.
Later, Song Can glared fiercely at Shu Pan in secret and left.
Shu Pan couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief. Every time she saw Song Can, she felt immense pressure, and her stomach would ache faintly.
He Ming, watching Song Can leave, then looking at his crumpled clothes, his dirty face, spoke up.
“Shu Pan, could you please look after Shaoting? I’ll go back to freshen up and come back as soon as possible, alright?”
He Ming sought Shu Pan’s opinion.
“Sure, you can go back first.” Shu Pan nodded. After all, she had nothing to do today, Joy was at Xiaomeng’s house, and now that Gu Shaoting had amnesia, she considered it an act of kindness to take care of this stranger.
“Thank you. Brother Ting, I’ll come back later.” He Ming turned to Gu Shaoting and said, “Brother Ting, I’ll be back later.”
Gu Shaoting remained calm and nodded.
He Ming left, leaving only the two of them in the ward. No one spoke, and the room was quiet.
Gu Shaoting reached for the water cup on the bedside table. Seeing this, Shu Pan quickly took it for him, opened the cup, and handed it to him.
Gu Shaoting glanced at her.
“What’s wrong?” Shu Pan asked him curiously.
Gu Shaoting didn’t say anything, but in his mind, he thought that this scene was very familiar, and the actions seemed very natural.
“How much do you know about me? Can you tell me?” Gu Shaoting finally spoke.
“I don’t know anything. We are strangers, ” Shu Pan’s words, however, did not convince Gu Shaoting.
“Did I offend you before? Why do I feel hostility from you?” Gu Shaoting could sense Shu Pan’s unfriendliness towards him.
“It’s nothing. Don’t overthink it. Rest well and get discharged soon,” Shu Pan didn’t want to continue the conversation with him.
Gu Shaoting looked helpless.
Finally, He Ming arrived, and Shu Pan, seeing him, breathed a sigh of relief.
“You’ve helped out. I have something to attend to, so I’ll be leaving.” Shu Pan said to He Ming.
“What? You’re leaving? You’re not taking care of me anymore?” Gu Shaoting, upon hearing this, became anxious. He only felt a sense of familiarity with Shu
Pan.
In this unfamiliar environment, he felt quite insecure without someone he knew.
“The hospital staff can take care of you. I can’t be of much help. I don’t want to stay here, especially to encounter your mother again,” Shu Pan didn’t want to stay at all.
“Okay, as long as I’m here, that’s enough. You can go,” He Ming didn’t want to say much. If Xiaomeng found out that he treated Shu Pan poorly, he would be in trouble.
“Make me some lean pork congee tonight and bring it over. I suddenly want to eat it,” Gu Shaoting continued to nag.
Shu Pan couldn’t help but roll her eyes, “They sell it outside. I’ll go buy it for you.”
“No, the ones outside are not hygienic. I’m still a patient. We need to be cautious,” Gu Shaoting insisted, behaving like a stubborn child.
Shu Pan didn’t want to argue with him anymore, so she reluctantly agreed.
He Ming, standing on the side, sweated. He had never seen the renowned Gu Shaoting being so stubborn.
After Shu Pan left, He Ming and Gu Shaoting talked about the company’s situation.
“I’m still a patient now. so take care of the less important decisions yourself.’
Gu Shaoting leaned against the bedhead, closing his eyes to rest.
“You said you don’t have any major issues. After being discharged, you can rest and come back to work, right?” With the increasing workload, He Ming was feeling a bit overwhelmed. He guessed he wouldn’t be able to visit Ye Xiaomeng for some time.
Gu Shaoting squinted at him but didn’t say anything..
