At the hospital, there was a lunch lady pushing a trolley to deliver meals to the patients and their families. There were three meals a day, consisting of lunchboxes, noodles, and porridge. It was quite convenient.
Therefore, Gu Chu told Lin Yu that there was no need to send her more porridge. She bought food from the lunch lady.
Firstly, she was afraid that Feng Jia would be jealous. Secondly, it was indeed convenient.
After Feng Jia fed her, he applied ointment on her hands. Gu Chu did not have any other external injuries other than blisters.
Gu Chu was a little bored lying on the bed, so she started to talk about her heroic acts in the fire.
She kept chattering non-stop.
Feng Jia’s eyebrows twitched. “Stop talking.”
“You feel sorry for me?” Gu Chu smiled.
Gu Chu was just joking and thought that he wouldn’t answer, but unexpectedly, he mumbled in affirmation and continued to apply the ointment.
She was elated and moved closer to kiss him on the cheek. Feng Jia found it funny.

Later, the nurse came to tell Gu Chu that Zhou Xuan had woken up. Gu Chu was overjoyed and quickly asked Feng Jia to push her to see the secretary.
Feng Jia simply pushed her bed with the nurse.

Although their wards were on the same floor, they were separated by several wards.
As soon as Gu Chu was pushed into the ward, she stretched out her hand and shouted, “Zhou Xuan!”
The secretary cried out pitifully, “Director!”
Just like that, they stretched out their hands and hugged each other in the air.
Feng Jia shook his head helplessly when he saw them like that. He instructed the nurses to wait outside while he went to the doctor to ask about the situation.
Gu Chu said, “I told your boyfriend. He should be here today.”
The secretary quickly asked, “Director, you didn’t tell my parents, did you?”
“I didn’t tell them, but I don’t know if your boyfriend will tell them.”
The secretary didn’t really want her parents to worry about her. Gu Chu quickly comforted her, “We survived a great disaster. We’ll definitely have good fortune in the future!”
“What about the three people?” The secretary had just woken up and didn’t know anything.
Gu Chu replied, “They’ve already been caught by the police. They’ve admitted to everything, including the girl’s murder back then.”
The secretary was shocked. “When I go back, I must pay my respects at a temple and get rid of the bad luck on me.”
Gu Chu smiled. “This is considered a work injury. The company will be responsible for the medical expenses. In addition, when I go back, I’ll give you a raise and a year-end bonus.”
The secretary’s mood immediately improved. “As expected, only money can soothe my injured heart now.”
The two chatted for a while. The nurse said that the doctor was coming, so Gu Chu was pushed to her own ward.
Feng Jia came with the doctor. After making sure that she was fine, he left.
Feng Jia remembered something and asked the doctor, “Did she have her stomach checked?”
The doctor flipped through the medical records and replied, “No.”
“Her stomach wasn’t feeling too good recently. Please check it,” Feng Jia said.
The doctor nodded. “Then I’ll do a gastroscopy tomorrow. Don’t eat anything after ten today. You need to have an empty stomach tomorrow morning.”
Gu Chu did not have any objections. She could feel some pain in her stomach, which was more severe than before.
After the doctor Left, Gu Chu asked him, “Can you arrange for my secretary and I to be in the same room?”
“No,” Feng Jia directly refused.
“Why?”
“It’s not convenient.”
Gu Chu was puzzled. “What’s not convenient? She’s timid, I can accompany her.”
Feng Jia sat by the bed and said, “Isn’t her boyfriend coming? It’s awkward for them and us.”
Gu Chu: “…”
She silently pulled up the blanket. “Don’t even think about it. I don’t want to do anything in the hospital.”
Feng Jia was amused. “You haven’t even fully recovered yet, and you’re already concerned about others.”
Gu Chu straightened her neck. “I’ve always been good to whoever treats me well. My secretary and I are friends forever.”
Feng Jia’s smile was very faint. “I treat you well, but you don’t treat me well.”
Gu Chu was in disbelief. “I’m not good enough to you?”
Feng Jia: “Heh.”
Gu Chu: “…”
She turned her head away and ignored him.
After a while, she turned her head back and called out to him, “Feng Jia.”
“Hmm?” Feng Jia was writing an email.
“Help me get the owner of the ramen restaurant here. I want to talk to her about compensation.”
Feng Jia said, “I’ll deal with the compensation.”
She didn’t need to see her personally.
Gu Chu said, “Actually, there are other things.”
