Chapter 996 - 2995

Chapter 996: Chapter 2995

Ling Yu stood outside the door, his smile unchanged.

Although she was already a mother, she was... truly innocent. Compared to those women who flaunted themselves before him, Ling Yu felt differently about her. This desire grew stronger with their increasing interactions.

It seems it’s time to quicken the pace.

...

Gu Xiaoning took some time to go to the hospital.

Because she’d been bleeding intermittently for several days now, not a lot, but accompanied by slight abdominal pain.

Lying on the examination bed, Gu Xiaoning was uneasy, "Doctor, do I... have some serious illness?"

"It’s hard to say for sure right now." The doctor maintained a formulaic attitude, "Let’s do two more tests. Once the results are out, we can make a conclusion."

"...Alright."

The test results would take another forty minutes, so Gu Xiaoning sat on the bench outside to wait.

On the floor, tap, tap, tap.

"Gu Xiaoning?"

Hearing someone call her name, Gu Xiaoning looked up, surprised, "Dr. Cui..."

She instinctively frowned.

Cui Ruoya smiled gently, walked over, glanced at the department ahead, and said surprised, "Obstetrics and gynecology? You..."

"Uh..." Gu Xiaoning thought of matters concerning Le Zhengsheng, which could not be known to Cui Ruoya. Feeling a bit guilty, she said, "My period is a bit irregular..."

"Oh." Cui Ruoya chuckled, "Well, I’m heading off then."

"Um."

Cui Ruoya walked forward, feeling something was off. She turned around and entered via the employee passage, going into the obstetrics and gynecology department.

"Dr. Lin."

"Ah, Dr. Cui... why have you come to me? No surgeries today?" Dr. Lin was holding a report and about to call for a nurse.

"Hey." Cui Ruoya stopped her, "Let me take a look..."

Dr. Lin raised an eyebrow, "Why?"

"Is this Gu Xiaoning’s? She’s a friend who’s waiting outside. I came for this matter."

"Oh, I see." Dr. Lin smiled, "Then take it out to her..."

She was about to say something when a nurse called from inside, "Dr. Lin, this patient... Please come and take a look..."

Dr. Lin responded, "Okay..."

She looked apologetically at Cui Ruoya, who patted her, "Go on! I’ll handle my friend’s matter. I’m not worried about explaining it wrongly, am I?"

"Alright, thank you."

The urge from inside made Dr. Lin rush in.

Holding the examination report, Cui Ruoya’s face darkened. "So, this is... really good."

The door of the examination room opened, and Gu Xiaoning stood up.

A young nurse brought her the report, "Gu Xiaoning."

"Yes, that’s me."

"Here you go."

Gu Xiaoning took the report form, "Excuse me..."

"It’s nothing. Just a general irregular period. Pay attention to your health when you go back."

"Oh." Gu Xiaoning agreed, breathing a sigh of relief.

She flipped through the report, filled with professional terms. Her grades had been above average, but this report was all in English... she truly couldn’t understand it. But it’s fine, no need to worry anymore.

...

Le Zhengsheng didn’t expect that he would meet Ling Yu for personal matters.

"What do you mean by this?" Le Zhengsheng placed the contract in front of Ling Yu with a somber expression.

"Oh?" Ling Yu leaned back in his office chair, "Didn’t you understand? I want to buy this apartment."

"Hmph." Le Zhengsheng sneered, "Young Master Ling, are you lacking such a small apartment to live in? Inside, lives my mother-in-law!"

Ling Yu slightly furrowed his brow, "Director Le Zheng, let me correct you, she’s your ex-mother-in-law, not anymore."

Le Zhengsheng frowned, "It doesn’t concern you! Do you think I’ll sell the apartment to you?"

"Director Le Zheng, do you believe I acted without reason?" Ling Yu chuckled, sitting up straight, "This matter, naturally, Mrs. Gu agreed to."

What...

Le Zhengsheng was taken aback, puzzled, "You’re lying!"

"I’m not." Ling Yu stood up, facing Le Zhengsheng directly, "Would it be possible for me to lie about such a big matter? Director Le Zheng, you’ve already divorced Gu Xiaoning... Don’t you think it’s burdensome to keep caring for her family?"

"Damn it, how’s that any of your business?"

Le Zhengsheng slapped the table with both hands, angry, "You’re good! Clever move, targeting the Aunt! As a mother, she would naturally soften for her daughter’s sake."

"Yes!" Ling Yu didn’t shy away, "I do have this intention... I like Gu Xiaoning, do you have a problem with that? As you said, Aunt believes in me, believes I can make Gu Xiaoning happy!"

"You!" Le Zhengsheng was furious, reaching out with one hand toward Ling Yu.

Ling Yu intercepted it perfectly, "Director Le Zheng, I know you’re skilled, but... I’m not a man without any resistance!"

He shook his head, chuckling lightly, "Why are you so tense? You’re divorced! It’s you who didn’t want her!"

"Damn you!" Le Zhengsheng was infuriated further by Ling Yu’s tone of determination towards Gu Xiaoning, making him really upset.

"Who told you I didn’t want her? What do you know, daring to pursue Gu Xiaoning!"

"..." Ling Yu sensed something in his words, "What do you mean by that?"

"Hmph!" Le Zhengsheng snorted coldly, "It was her who didn’t want me! Could you tell? Gu Xiaoning is a woman who abandoned her husband and child! Still dare to want her? Do you want her?"

Ling Yu was shocked, such a fact was beyond his imagination...

Could it be true? Weak and delicate like Gu Xiaoning, it’s... the truth?

Leaving Ling’s company, Le Zhengsheng drove to Aunt Gu’s place.

He needed to confirm why Aunt Gu agreed to Ling Yu’s actions?

"Ah Sheng?" As soon as Aunt Gu opened the door and saw Le Zhengsheng, her expression wasn’t too pleasant, "You’re here..."

Her attitude was indifferent, completely different from before.

"Aunt." Le Zhengsheng sat down, "Do you want to buy this apartment?"

Aunt Gu paused slightly, her mouth twitching, "You know it."

"Aunt." Le Zhengsheng frowned, "Initially, my plan was to transfer this house to you... If you want it, then I’ll just..."

"No need!" Aunt Gu straightened up, quickly rejecting, "Ah Sheng, although the Gu Family is poor, I’m not at the point of asking you for a house or money."

This, obviously, Le Zhengsheng knew, he’d seen it clearly over the years.

Therefore, he was even more puzzled, "So Aunt, what is this for? Ling Yu said it was your agreement?"

"Yes." Aunt Gu nodded with a frown but unwilling to say more, "Don’t ask anymore, I won’t say anything. You just need to know... in the future, I will not need you to take care of me and Xiao Zheng, that’s it."

"Aunt!"

Le Zhengsheng was anxious, "Why have you suddenly become so confused? Haven’t you noticed? Ling Yu’s intentions towards Ningning?"

"Aunt." Le Zhengsheng slightly nodded and walked inside. No matter what, today he’s determined to get the reason out!
