Gu Jingxing and Meng Lan sat together in front of the hospital bed, the old man's expression was peaceful, as if he was asleep.But his thin cheeks and haggard face still exposed the poor state of the old man at the moment.

Gu Jingxing sat on the left side of the bed, and Meng Lan sat on the right side of the bed.

A mother and a son are relatively silent.

Gu Jingxing raised his eyes to look at his mother, she had calmed down a lot at the moment, she was not as emotional as before, and she returned to the dignified and elegant appearance in his memory.

He moved his Adam's apple slightly, stood up slightly, and wanted to say something to his mother to break the awkward atmosphere.

It so happened that Aunt Zhou came in with a towel and a water basin, interrupting his movements.

Gu Jingxing sat back silently again.

Mr. Gu lay on the hospital bed all day long, and his body always needed to be wiped down, and Aunt Zhou was here to complete this task at this moment.

"I'll do it." Meng Lan suddenly stood up and took the towel from Aunt Zhou.

Aunt Zhou was a little reluctant, "Madam, let me do it."

"It's better for me to do these tasks. Go and rest."

Meng Lan shook her head lightly, her tone was very soft, "The Gu family is like this now, how can I even think about resting?"

"I can't sleep even in bed, why don't you find something to do and leave it to me."

I wanted to continue to refuse, but I looked up and saw Meng Lan's firm eyes.Aunt Zhou had no choice but to hand the towel to Meng Lan.

Gu Jingxing stood beside him, and after hearing this, he really felt that he couldn't hold back his face.

Anyone can tell that Meng Lan said this to him...

Since his father left, he has taken over the position of the president of the Gu family from his grandfather, and he has become the pillar of the Gu family.

Originally, before this, my mother still had my grandfather as a support, but now that my grandfather is sick in bed again, his life and death are uncertain, and my mother is the only one left to rely on in the Gu family.

Gu Jingxing knew very well in his heart that... as the only man left in the Gu family, what he did was really unsatisfactory.

The man pursed his lips in silence.

He had never felt before that the burden on his shoulders was so heavy... Ever since his father and elder brother died in that car accident, everything had rushed towards him like a huge ocean wave.

From taking care of the funeral affairs, the company went bankrupt, the mother fell ill, the position of CEO was eyed by relatives, and then the authorization expired later, the grandfather was seriously ill...

After experiencing so many things, Gu Jingxing only felt tired...Endless exhaustion haunted him.

In the fading light, Gu Jingxing sat in front of the hospital bed, silently as if trying to merge into the silent atmosphere.

The man's black eyelashes were slightly condensed, his thin chin was tight, his lips were light blue, and a tired arc formed at the end.

Aunt Zhou obviously noticed the young master's state.

"Young master, since Madam doesn't want to rest, you can go to rest first, I'll just stay here with Madam." The young master looked really tired and felt a lot thinner, presumably he didn't have a good rest during this time.

Gu Jingxing raised his eyes upon hearing the sound, "No."

"As a grandson, this is what I should do."

He went to Hwaseong, but he didn't invite the Su family's genius doctor for his grandfather. He was really at fault, and he hoped that his grandfather would not blame himself.

Accompanying grandpa today is also an apology.

Seeing that she couldn't persuade the young master, Aunt Zhou could only sigh, and silently stepped aside.

……

Meng Lan carefully wiped the face of Old Master Gu who was in a coma, her overall movements were very elegant.Although the face was haggard due to overwork, it still gave people the feeling of an undefeated beauty.

Su Nianxi also had this kind of temperament.

It seems that no matter what happens in front of them, they can maintain a noble posture.

It seems that because Su Nianxi's figure inexplicably appeared in his mind again, Gu Jingxing's expression became even uglier.

He forcefully erased that figure from his mind, and then evaded and raised other topics.

"Mother, I plan to go to the capital in person and find the Su family's genius doctor to treat grandpa."

"To Kyoto?" Meng Lan's hand slowed down, she seemed a little surprised.

"En." Gu Jingxing nodded, with a calm expression, as if he didn't see his mother's surprise.

"Do you know the status of the Su family in the capital? Not to mention whether you can hire the Su family's genius doctor, you may not even be able to find the location of the Su family."

Meng Lan obviously felt that with Gu Jingxing, it was impossible to find the genius doctor of the Su family.

"Nian'er can help me."

"Lin Nianer?" When Meng Lan heard the name, a disgusted expression appeared on her face, and she snorted coldly, "What can she help you with?"

"A person who doesn't understand anything, how can she help you find the Su family? It's just a way to trick men."

This woman knows how to talk and talk to make a man happy.

When I was young, I didn't know how many tricks like this I had seen.

Faced with Meng Lan's questioning of Lin Nian'er, Gu Jingxing's eyes showed no emotion.

Mother has always disliked Nian'er, which is expected.

"Nian'er is a branch of the Su family, she can guide me to find the location of the Su family."

As soon as these words came out, the movements of Meng Lan's hands completely stopped.

"Lin Nian'er is a branch of the Su family??", that woman is actually from the Su family?Why doesn't she believe it?

The Su family is a well-known scholarly family, how could there be a woman like Lin Nian'er?It also lowered the Su family's reputation too much...

No matter how Meng Lan thought about it, she didn't think it was right.

Gu Jingxing knew that his mother would definitely question Lin Nianer's identity, so he spoke first and interrupted Meng Lan.

"Nian'er is indeed a branch of the Su family. This is absolutely true. We plan to leave for the capital tomorrow, and we will have to trouble our mother to take care of grandpa at home."

"How can you be sure that Lin Nian'er's identity is absolutely true? You'll be deceived by then..." Meng Lan had only half-spoken when Gu Jingxing stood up and left the room without looking back.

The man obviously didn't want to stay in the house and listen to his old mother nagging.

"Hey—where are you going?" Meng Lan put down the towel in her hand and chased after him, but the man was already in the car, and all she could see was a series of car exhaust.

Meng Lan looked into the distance, and lowered her hand dejectedly.

……

The next day, while Lin Nian'er was still asleep, there was already a knock on the door of the apartment.

Aunt Liu was startled by the sound, she quickly ran to the door and opened it.

She didn't even see the person standing at the door clearly, so she said directly, "Keep your voice down, do you understand the rules, you are not allowed to knock on the door before ten o'clock, are you new here? You don't understand this rule?! "

Lin Nian'er is very picky about her lifestyle, and she also gets angry when she wakes up. If she is awakened in her sleep, Aunt Liu will not be able to survive the day.

So Aunt Liu told many people up and down that the residents of the whole apartment knew Lin Nianer's rules, and no one would dare to knock on the door of this family in the morning.

The person in front of him didn't move at all.

Aunt Liu became anxious in an instant, she said, "Can't you hear me? Get out, come back after ten o'clock!" As she spoke, she raised her eyes, trying to push the man away.

Just halfway through the movement in her hand, she saw the man's face clearly.

That unusually handsome face appeared in front of her.

Young Master Gu...? !

Aunt Liu was taken aback, and she quickly swallowed all the words that followed, "Young Master Gu... Please come inside quickly."

"You are not allowed to knock on the door before ten o'clock?" Gu Jingxing stared at her thoughtfully with his eyes as cold as ice.

Aunt Liu was extremely flustered, "Ah... um, um, Miss Lin went to bed late last night, I'm afraid she didn't get enough rest, so I said that..."

She can't let Lin Nian'er's image in front of Young Master Gu be broken, otherwise Miss Lin will have to strip her off.

After hearing this explanation, Gu Jingxing reluctantly believed it.

"Call Nian'er, let her pack up and go to Kyoto with me."

"Okay, okay, I'm going to call Miss Lin right now." Aunt Liu nodded and bowed, and answered straight away, "Young Master Gu, won't you come in?"

Gu Jingxing's overcoat complemented his slender figure, his overly handsome face, his eyebrows were slightly drawn, his phoenix eyes were narrow and cold, and his lips were as thin as a knife.

"No."

The man stood in front of the door without even setting foot in the apartment.

The alienated movements and expressions are like strangers visiting the apartment.
