God of Racing

Chapter 790: Chapter 778:

Yu Sangwan was at a loss for words. The Fu Family had been living here for so long, yet nothing like this had ever happened. How did it come to this, with a neighbor complaining like that?

Unable to figure it out, she still needed to resolve it, "Okay, I’ll look into the situation and solve it."

"Ah." Tu Shanni nodded, "Your dad isn’t here. The Fu Family only has you to take charge."

It wasn’t a big issue, but Yu Sangwan frowned, what about Asheng?

Calculating the time, Le Zhengsheng thought Yu Sangwan should have boarded the plane by now. Although he missed her dearly, he held back from calling her.

Gu Xiaoning pushed him downstairs for a walk, "You sit here for a moment, I’ll buy you some water."

"Okay."

Le Zhengsheng had been in good spirits these past few days.

However, he didn’t expect his phone to suddenly ring, and it displayed ’Wanwan.’

"..." Le Zhengsheng was taken aback, a sense of foreboding enveloped him; he answered the call, "Hello, Wanwan... you haven’t boarded yet? Was the flight delayed?"

"No." Yu Sangwan was apologetic, "Sorry, Asheng, there’s been a problem at home... a civil dispute, I can’t go abroad temporarily."

His smile froze on his face.

Le Zhengsheng hadn’t expected such a thing. "Civil dispute? What kind of civil dispute?"

"It’s like this..." Yu Sangwan briefly explained the situation to him, "It’s not serious but quite troublesome; there are too many fruit farmers around us, and we have to deal with them one by one. Asheng, I’m sorry! I’ll handle it swiftly and come to accompany you."

Le Zhengsheng clenched his jaw and gripped the phone tightly, "Okay."

Besides saying okay, what else could he say?

After hanging up, Le Zhengsheng’s emotions exploded.

"Ah!"

Le Zhengsheng raised his arm, attempting to smash the phone.

"Hey!" Gu Xiaoning appeared in time, grabbing his hand, "What are you doing? Why are you suddenly losing your temper again?"

"Don’t mind me!" Le Zhengsheng was still very weak, and consequently started to pant, "Go away!"

Gu Xiaoning was startled, "Did something happen with your wife? She’s not coming?"

Le Zhengsheng gritted his teeth in anger, "I told you to shut up! Get lost!"

"You’re something else!" Gu Xiaoning frowned, "You have a terrible temper!"

She looked up at the sky, noticing the large dark clouds looming, "I don’t care why you’re unhappy... it’s about to rain, I’m taking you back to the ward!"

"I told you to go away!" Le Zhengsheng grew agitated, pushing Gu Xiaoning away, "Why are you so annoying?"

"You..." Gu Xiaoning was irked, "Your temper is dreadful! Your health is poor, you can’t get caught in the rain! With such low immunity, what if you catch something?"

"Let it be!" Le Zhengsheng stubbornly laughed bitterly, "Anyway, she’s not coming! If I die of illness, so what?"

Gu Xiaoning didn’t expect he would be so reckless.

"Fine!" Gu Xiaoning nodded, "Whatever you want is your own affair! Honestly, whether you live or not has nothing to do with me! But I’m on duty now, so I have to take you back!"

With that said, she stepped forward to move the wheelchair, forcibly taking him away.

"Get lost!"

Le Zhengsheng abruptly stood up; it had been a long time since he did so, and he staggered.

Gu Xiaoning was continuously pushed back, staring at him in shock, "You..."

"I told you not to interfere!" Le Zhengsheng growled.

The two remained in a standoff, as dark clouds pressed down causing the rain to patter down.

Gu Xiaoning stood watching Le Zhengsheng’s unmoving silhouette.

Raindrops soaked his hair, flowing down his forehead. Gu Xiaoning noticed his eyes were slightly red.

Her heart stirred; he... truly loved his wife deeply, didn’t he? With a terminal illness, his wife was his only solace.

"Ah..." Gu Xiaoning sighed, taking the blanket from the wheelchair, tiptoeing to drape it over Le Zhengsheng.

"You..." Le Zhengsheng wanted to ask what she was doing...

Gu Xiaoning pouted, interrupting him, "If you’re not going back, then don’t. It’s hard to maintain reason when one feels distressed."

Le Zhengsheng observed her, impulsive emotions slowly settling, "You’re not going back? It’s raining hard..."

"Tch." Gu Xiaoning laughed, "You don’t want to live, but I still do... If I left you here alone and returned, I’d really be doomed!"

She reached out to sweep aside the bangs wet by rain on his forehead, "I’ll stay here with you; if you want to go back, then we can go back."

Le Zhengsheng was embarrassed, turning his gaze away.

...

The result of being caught in the rain was quite severe.

In the ward, the machines beeped intermittently.

Le Zhengsheng lay on the bed, his eyes tightly shut, shaking his head uneasily, with flaky skin forming at his lips, and his complexion looking terrible.

Doctors and nurses shuttled around busily...

Outside, by the nurse’s station.

The head nurse was admonishing Gu Xiaoning, "Little Gu, what’s the matter with you? Why are you so reckless? Usually, you’re very meticulous in your work... Do you know who that patient is? He’s a key subject in our department; if he suffers due to your mistake, who will take responsibility?"

"Me!" Gu Xiaoning nodded repeatedly, "Myself."

"Hum..." The head nurse scoffed, "It’s commendable you’re taking responsibility, but... this concerns a human life! Saying you’ll be responsible, does that suffice?"

Gu Xiaoning froze, lowering her head.

"Head Nurse, I made the mistake, so I’ll take care of him."

"Forget it!" The head nurse waved, "You being so careless, how dare to leave him to you? You’re soaked through, go shower and change clothes quickly."

"Oh..." Gu Xiaoning twisted her fingers.

The head nurse was irritable, "I’ll think about your punishment; for now, don’t be responsible for him anymore."

"Oh."

Gu Xiaoning had nothing to say and went to shower and change clothes.

She came out of the bathroom, changed into casual clothes. Originally set to leave, she looked at the door of Le Zhengsheng’s ward... ultimately feeling uneasy. Carefully, she walked over again.

Opening the door, her colleague was inside.

"Little Gu?" The colleague smiled, "The head nurse finished scolding you? You’re not going back?"

"Hehe." Gu Xiaoning smiled as she walked in, "I came to check on him... How is he?"

The colleague shook his head, "High fever, infection for sure... just don’t know how it’ll progress, it’s quite dire." Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaoning furrowed her brows tightly.

"Hey, his infusion is almost complete; I’ll go fetch the next... little Gu, keep an eye on him!"

"Okay." Gu Xiaoning nodded repeatedly, pulling up a chair and sitting by the bed.

She usually busied herself with taking care of Le Zhengsheng, and rarely had the luxury to watch over him quietly.

Gu Xiaoning rested her chin on her hand, watching attentively, "Tsk! Didn’t realize before, but you’re really good-looking... no woman is as pretty as you, your eyeliner is so long, your eyelashes are long as well. Hey, why do you feel so hopeless?"

"Wanwan!"

Suddenly, Le Zhengsheng grabbed Gu Xiaoning’s hand.

"Ah..." Gu Xiaoning was startled, "You’re awake?"

Of course not, Le Zhengsheng was dreaming, calling out for Wanwan.

Gu Xiaoning sighed, "Oh, dreaming huh! Wanwan? Wanwan’s your wife, isn’t she? Her name seems akin to her personality."

Thinking of Yu Sangwan, Gu Xiaoning couldn’t help but say, "Is your wife fortunate? Or unfortunate? Such a handsome guy, so fond of her... it should be a good thing, but you, you’re ill. She must have worried endlessly, right?"

She wanted to withdraw her hand from Le Zhengsheng’s grip but tried several times without success.
