Chapter 638: Master Wang Is in the Hospital
Qiao Nian stared at the message for a few seconds before looking away. Then, she exited the chat.
She didn’t hesitate to call Gu San this time.
The phone rang for seven or eight seconds before he picked it up.
Qiao Nian took her mineral water bottle and walked out of the airport terminal with her usual casual gaze. She asked in a slightly hoarse voice, “Hey, where are you? I’m back in Rao City.”
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while. Qiao Nian took the phone off her ear midway, checked to make sure that he did not hang up, and then put it to her ear again before hearing a hoarse and pained male voice. “Miss Qiao, I’m in the city hospital. Master Wang, he…”
Before Qiao Nian listened to the rest, her eyes sank, and she raised his hand to stop a taxi. She got into the taxi quickly and said to the driver in front, “Sir, to the city hospital, please hurry up.”
While squeezing the phone, she frowned and said to Gu San, “I’ll be there right away.”
“Mm…”
Qiao Nian listened to his feeble answer and pressed hard on her temple. A nerve in the back of her head was throbbing. She added, “Half an hour.”
It usually took an hour to drive from the airport to the city hospital under normal circumstances.
If one drove fast, they could arrive smoothly in half an hour to forty minutes. She used to go to the hospital to visit Uncle Chen, and she knew the time it would take to get from the airport to the hospital.
“Wait for me.”
…
Forty minutes later, the taxi stopped in front of the city hospital.
Qiao Nian scanned the QR code to pay the fare and then called Gu San again, asking where they were. Then, she walked inside with her hands in her pockets.
There was never a shortage of doctors in the city hospital, but today almost no one could be seen. She walked all the way to the emergency department. As soon as she walked to the corridor, she saw Gu San sitting on a chair with his head in his hands.
Qiao Nian’s eyes sank slightly, then she walked over.
As soon as she approached, two big men in black stopped her.
“Hey, what are you doing, you can’t pass here.”
Qiao Nian frowned, pulled down the brim of her cap impatiently, and uttered three casual words. “Looking for someone.”
“The person you are looking for isn’t here, step aside.”
“Miss Qiao?”
Gu San raised his head. He had a pair of scarlet eyes with no expression. When he saw the girl who was blocked by the bodyguards, he regained some sense of consciousness and stood up. Walking towards them with a guilty expression, he asked her, “Has it been half an hour?”
Qiao Nian took out her mobile phone and checked the time. “Almost an hour. You forgot that I called you five minutes ago and asked where you were.”
“…” Gu San rubbed his forehead and apologized to her. “I should have picked you up outside, sorry.”
The two bodyguards who had just stopped Qiao Nian looked at each other, a little confused, and asked him respectfully, “Do you know this person?”
Gu San nodded and asked them to step aside, saying, “She’s the sister of Master Wang’s friend.”
He almost blurted out “Qiao Nian is Master Wang’s fiancée”, but he quickly changed it to Jiang Li’s younger sister.
Although the two bodyguards didn’t understand why Miss Qiao’s friend’s sister would come to the hospital, they weren’t blind. Seeing that Qiao Nian had a strong relationship with him, one of them immediately apologized to her. “Sorry, Miss. I didn’t know who you were.”
“Mm.”
Qiao Nian didn’t care about these things. Turning her head, she noticed how tired Gu San’s face was, revealing that he hadn’t slept all night. Some blue stubble could also be seen on his chin. Worried, she asked, “What happened?”
