Chapter 37

One week later.

In the hospital at the center of C city, Gu Qingyou gently pushed open the door to the ward.

When the nurse saw her, she wanted to greet her. Gu Qingyou immediately shushed her with a hand gesture, and the nurse lowered her voice, "Miss Gu, you came …"

Gu Qingyou nodded to the nurse, then walked over to the bed and looked at the elder who was sleeping soundly, and asked softly, "Has Aunt Shu woken up today?"

"I woke up in the morning. I'm in good spirits."

Gu Qingyou heaved a sigh of relief and quietly sat down on the edge of the bed, then placed Aunt Shu's hand outside the blanket.

Unexpectedly, this meticulous action disturbed the elders who were sleeping soundly. Aunt Shu's eyelids twitched, and she slowly opened her eyes.

Gu Qingyou was very happy to see the sober Aunt Shu, but she felt apologetic for disturbing his Aunt Shu's sleep. She opened her mouth and whispered, "Did I disturb your sleep?"

When Aunt Shu saw Gu Qingyou, she attempted to sit up.

Gu Qingyou hurriedly stepped forward to support her, allowing the Aunt Shu to rest comfortably on the soft pillow.

"You did not wake me every time you came to see me, so that I did not know you were here." Aunt Shu said as she pulled Gu Qingyou's hand over and wrapped it around her own.

Gu Qingyou looked at Shuyi's loving face in satisfaction, and said indifferently, "You have just finished the surgery, the doctor said that you need to rest more."

Aunt Shu replied lovingly, "So you always come to see me while I'm sleeping right?"

Gu Qingyou smiled lightly, and did not deny it.

Aunt Shu smiled along with her as she held Gu Qingyou tightly in her palm. She could not bear to blink and looked at her deeply, "Seeing that you have such a good job now, I feel at ease … It's just that when you came back that day, I found that you had lost some weight. You have to take care of your body no matter what, okay? "

During the twenty odd days that Gu Qingyou had spent in the Jiang's Mansion, An Yaru told Aunt Shu that due to her promotion, Gu Qingyou would be working in the city area for the long term, so she would not have much time to return home.

"I know, actually my job is very relaxed, I am not skinny at all. Aunt Shu, it has been a long time since you last saw me, that's why you think I have lost weight." Gu Qingyou calmly replied.

"You're so busy that you don't even have the time to come back and see me. How can you say it's an easy job?" Aunt Shu said shrewdly.

Gu Qingyou hurriedly replied, "I don't have time to go home because the company has too many trivial matters, but the content of the work is very relaxed. Otherwise, how could I be in such a good mood?"

Aunt Shu was amused. "Good, good, good. Seeing that you look good, I believe you know how to take care of yourself … However, now that you have been promoted, the colleagues that you have interacted with will also be higher ranked. Have you paid attention to whether there are any outstanding male colleagues around you? "

"Yes, I observe it every day …" Always following Aunt Shu's teachings, if you meet an outstanding person, don't let go, and marry yourself off early! " Gu Qingyou said in an amused tone.

Aunt Shu was grinning from ear to ear, "Don't try to lie to me, you're not young anymore, let's have a relationship for two or three years, 25 or 26 years old, it's just about time to give birth to a child …"

"Yes."

As the two of them were happily chatting, someone pushed open the door to the ward. A sweet voice pierced in, "I could already hear your cheerful laughter before I even entered the ward … Really, normally, Aunt Shu wouldn't be this happy to see me, I'm so sad! "

The one who spoke was An Yaru, she carried two bags of fruits and walked over.

Aunt Shu looked at An Yaru lovingly, and laughed, "You should know that your sweet lips have always been sweeter than yours …"

An Yaru put down the fruit in her hand, walked to Gu Qingyou's side and snorted, "That's right, that's right. Someone is trying to coax the elderly, I must be ashamed of myself."

Aunt Shu was once again amused by An Yaru's "jealous" look.

Gu Qingyou laughed along with her, noticing that An Yaru was winking at her, realizing that An Yaru seemed to have something to say to her. She then said to Aunt Shu, "I'm going to the washroom."

The Aunt Shu nodded.

Gu Qingyou left the sickroom and went to the corridor to wait. After a while, An Yaru also came out.

"Quiet!"

An Yaru's voice was heavy as he pulled her towards the balcony at the end of the corridor.

On the deck, An Yaru no longer had the smile on her face from before as she said heavily, "I just called you, you probably forgot to bring your phone. I guessed that you came to the hospital to see the Aunt Shu, so I came to find you …"

"Yeah, I forgot to bring my phone with me …" What happened? " Gu Qingyou could already see the seriousness of the situation from An Yaru's worried expression, and asked solemnly.

An Yaru took out her own phone, found a video and played it.

"Qingyou, you save mom … If you don't pay a million dollars to redeem your mother, they really will kill her... Please, have some peace and quiet … Mommy promised you that she would stop gambling in the future, so I beg you to save Mommy … They only gave me three hours to raise the money... "

The main character of the video was Gu Qingyou's mother, Qu Liyuan.

In the video, Qu Liyuan was tied up in a dark hut and there were a few gangsters recording the video. One of the gangsters had even placed a knife on Qu Liyuan's neck, making Qu Liyuan scream in fear.

An Yaru said in fear, "I asked a friend of mine who understood computers, he said that this video was not fake. That is to say, Aunt Qu is really threatened by the underworld …"

After a moment of silence, Gu Qingyou asked calmly, "How did you get this video?"

An Yaru quickly replied, "An hour ago, I received a call from Aunt Qu. She told me that she couldn't reach you, so I need to contact him as soon as possible and give her a million. I was afraid that Aunt Qu was lying to you again, so I decided to tell you about it when I invited you out for dinner. Who knew that I would receive this video from my phone after half an hour … "

Gu Qingyou's face finally turned pale as she pursed her lips tightly.

An Yaru gently held onto Gu Qingyou's trembling body, "There's a clear bloody wound on Aunt Qu's throat in the video, so it's impossible that it's a fake video of Aunt Qu working with those people. Furthermore, Aunt Qu knows that you don't have a million … What do we do now? "

Gu Qingyou remained silent for a long while, and her body continued to grow colder and colder.

"Otherwise, let's not bother about a vampire like mother like you anymore!" An Yaru suddenly said angrily, "Let her be chopped to death by these gangsters this time … After so many years of helping her return so many bets and money, she still doesn't know how to repent. Even if she dies, it would be a kind of release for you! "

Gu Qingyou closed her eyes in pain.

"Quiet …"

Gu Qingyou took in a deep breath before slowly opening her eyes and asking in a low voice, "Ya Ru, can your friend still borrow some money from me?"

Seeing Gu Qingyou resolutely prop herself up, An Yaru's eyes moistened, "Qingyou, forget it, your mother is hopeless … Even if you saved her this time, she would still take the risk next time.

"I know, but she gave birth to me, so I owe her my life. This time, I saved her, so I will treat it as paying back her life. From now on, even if I don't ask if she lives or dies, I have a clear conscience."
