Chapter 106 Jiang Chen Three

  When I woke up again, Qiao Nanmu had already left. Gu Liuyi was sitting beside me with a not-so-good-looking face. Seeing that I was awake, he immediately handed over the cup in his hand and said, "Drink the medicine."

  I looked at Gu Liu's slightly gloomy face, but he didn't refuse, and obediently took it over to drink.

  "But you've had a fever for half a day. What exactly did you and Qiao Nanmu go out to do?" Gu Liu asked displeasedly.

  I replied evasively, "It's just that I went out for a walk and didn't think my body was so weak." I looked at Gu Liu Yi with a pitiful expression, trying to arouse his sympathy.

  "It's snowing heavily outside and you're still injured, are you trying to get yourself killed?" Gu Liu continued to speak indifferently, his expression eerily similar to that of Gu Chen.

  I knew that whatever I said at this moment would be wrong, so I'd better shut up and say nothing, just putting on a "I was wrong" face.

  Gu Liuyi didn't bother me again and asked coldly: "Has Jiang Chen been here?"

  My hand trembled, and I felt a chill as I recalled that eerie man. I nodded, then asked: "Did Qiao Nanmu say that Jiang Chen was his younger brother-in-law and that he had exceptional medical skills?"

  "Not bad." Gu Liu said only these two words, and it was unclear whether he acknowledged that Jiang Chen was Qiao Nanmu's younger brother-in-law or acknowledged that Jiang Chen's medical skills were very high.

  Gu Liuyi didn't say anything else, just reminded me not to make any more trouble and take good care of myself before pushing the door and leaving.

  I was just about to take a breather when the phone on my desk suddenly rang, I picked it up and found an unfamiliar number, after hesitating for a moment, I pressed the answer button.

  "Hello, I'm Gu Jing." My voice was a bit low, probably because of the cold and fever, so it didn't sound very normal.

  But on the other side, no one spoke up, and an awkward silence ensued.

  "Did I dial the wrong number? I was speechless for a moment, but still asked again: 'Hello, is there anything I can help you with?'"

  "Gu Qian, I am Li Yang." A gentle voice came from the other side.

  My hand shook and I almost threw away the phone, then remembered that night when Li Yang chased after Ning Jing's figure as she left.

  I opened my mouth, but didn't know what to say. Li Yang was also silent on the other end and hadn't spoken up, I thought for a moment, then asked: "Did you call me for something?" My hand gripping the phone tightened involuntarily, this was still the first time Li Yang and I had communicated in this way.

  Li Yang seemed to smile and said: "You don't have to be nervous, I didn't mean anything else. Just asking if you have time, let's chat?"

  "Oh, if it's for peace and quiet, then there's no need." I almost subconsciously said this sentence, and regretted it afterwards.

  Li Yang on the other side seemed to be stunned too, probably didn't expect me to say this sentence so bluntly. After reacting, he immediately said: "It's not for peace, nor is it for anyone else. Gu Qing, have you forgotten what I told you? I'm still chasing after you now, can't I even see your face?"

  I remained silent for a moment before finally saying: "If that's the case, how about we meet at the 'Forget Time' coffee shop on Long Street three days from now?"

  Li Yang responded with a "yes" and said, "Okay." Before hanging up the phone, he added, "Gu Qing, take care of yourself."

  My heart skipped a beat, did he notice that my voice wasn't right?

  After hanging up the phone, I found that there were several unread messages on my mobile phone. I patiently read them one by one.

  Qiao Yun Ge sent: Ah Jian, are you okay? This time it was Nan Mu's negligence, I've already scolded him severely. You take good care of yourself and rest well. Another day, I'll bring Nan Mu to your place in person to apologize.

  Then Qiao Nanmu sent: Take a good rest.

  Then there's a strange number: Sister, from now on, no matter what happens, just come find me directly, I'll be waiting for you anytime. There's even a big flying kiss at the end.

  The last one was from Gu Chen, with only six words: Damn Qiao Nanmu.

  I was speechless and lost my smile, putting down my phone and closing my eyes to calm my mind.
