Chapter 897: Only I Can Have a Place in Your Heart 2
Gu Yunyun hadn’t expected Bai Chenyao to so bluntly have someone throw her out, but thinking of Bai Chenyao’s cold and indifferent temperament, she could kind of understand.
By the time she got to Old Madam Mu, the old lady was practically furious to death.
When Li Mu forcibly sent her out, Old Madam Mu rolled her eyes and actually passed out from rage.
Beside her, Gu Yunyun saw this and jumped in fright.
"Old Madam Mu!"
Nanny Zhang and Li Mu, who had already turned to leave, looked over, and a hint of coldness flashed in Li Mu’s eyes.
But he still quickly went to get the car, then carried Old Madam Mu into it and drove straight to the hospital.
Just in time to swing by the City Hospital and confirm whether what Gu Yunyun said was true!
At the same time, Mu Tiantian had already dialed her eldest uncle Gu Qingfeng’s number.
"Uncle!"
On the other end of the line, Gu Qingfeng’s surprised voice came very quickly.
"Tian Tian!"
In the two years abroad, Mu Tiantian had only spoken with her uncle six times on the phone—twice during the New Year, twice on her father’s death anniversary, and twice on her grandmother’s death anniversary.
"Mm, it’s me. Uncle, Sister Yunyun said you hurt your leg and you’re in the City Hospital now?"
"Nothing like that, Tian Tian, your uncle is in great health, don’t you worry!"
Although Mu Tiantian hadn’t spent much time with her uncle, she knew very well what kind of person he was—honest and upright, and he hated troubling others. Whatever happened, he always gritted his teeth and bore it alone.
And his voice was a bit anxious, clearly trying to cover things up.
The more you try to hide, the more you give yourself away.
Mu Tiantian took a light breath and spoke softly.
"Uncle, what’s your ward number?"
On the other end, Gu Qingfeng’s face was stiff and embarrassed.
"Tian Tian, I really am fine. The doctor said there’s no problem. It’s your Sister Yunyun who insisted I be admitted for observation and all that. It’s really unnecessary. I’m planning to get discharged tomorrow morning, then go see you, and then head back to Lishui County."
Listening to her uncle’s voice, Mu Tiantian’s heart softened.
No matter how dissatisfied she was with Gu Yunyun, her uncle was still her uncle.
"Even if Uncle doesn’t tell the truth, I can still find out exactly what’s going on!"
Gu Qingfeng’s expression froze; he suddenly remembered that his niece’s boyfriend was no ordinary person.
"No need, Tian Tian, I... it’s just a calf fracture, plus two broken ribs, really nothing."
Hearing this, Mu Tiantian sucked in a sharp breath of cold air.
A calf fracture plus two broken ribs, and he calls that nothing?
She couldn’t spare another word with her uncle; Mu Tiantian quickly hung up.
When she looked up, she saw Bai Chenyao beside her, his expression grim and severe.
"A Yao, I—"
"Li Mu is waiting for you!"
Mu Tiantian was a bit anxious, but when her gaze met Bai Chenyao’s dark eyes, her heart gradually settled.
Bai Chenyao reached out, both hands resting on her shoulders, his voice low, carrying a trace of gentleness.
"Wait for me three minutes. I’ll go with you."
Mu Tiantian hurriedly shook her head. She knew how busy Bai Chenyao was; how could she let him go with her?
But seeing the look on Bai Chenyao’s face that brooked no refusal, Mu Tiantian was slightly stunned.
Then, the next second, she noticed Bai Chenyao’s hand gently brush her cheek, his thin lips parting slightly as he breathed out a very short word.
"Good girl."
Mu Tiantian: "..."
Was he coaxing her like some little kid?
Mu Tiantian could only stand there awkwardly and spiritedly, watching Bai Chenyao walk into the study.
Sure enough, three minutes later, Bai Chenyao came out of the study in a sharp suit, striding quickly over to her, taking her hand, and very naturally smoothing the stray hair at her temple for her.
"Let’s go!"
Mu Tiantian: "..."
