Translator: _Min_ |

After a day-long slumber, Song Ling awoke, his gaze drifting across the pale ceiling and the sharp scent of disinfectant filling his senses.

His thoughts slowly reassembled, recalling the scene before he passed out. He called out loudly, “Gu Dai!”

Zhao Xuan, jolted from his drowsy state, stood up excitedly, “President Song, you’re awake! I’ll call the doctor.”

Within minutes, nearly all the hospital’s doctors gathered around.

Ge Liang admired, “President Song, you’re recovering well. Indeed, the Legendary Doctor is extraordinary. The Legendary Doctor’s medical skills are superb, even successfully treating a heart injury instantly.”

Song Ling, however, paid no attention to their words. He grabbed Zhao Xuan, urgently asking, “Where’s Gu Dai? How is she?”

Zhao Xuan, surprised by Song Ling’s deep concern for Gu Dai right upon waking, quickly reassured, “Don’t worry, Mr. Song. Miss Gu Dai is fine; she’s already gone home.”

Song Ling sighed in relief.

Wang Lan, arriving at the door of the ward, heard Song Ling’s words. Her face darkened with anger, “Gu Dai didn’t even come visit you while you were unconscious. She wasn’t here during your critical surgery. Why do you still care about her?”

Song Ling’s heart ached at these words.

Zhao Xuan, disliking Wang Lan’s statement, wished he could reveal Gu Dai’s identity as Song Ling’s savior to slap back at Wang Lan.

But all he could say was, “President Song, Miss Gu Dai cares about you. She just had an urgent matter to attend to.”

Song Ling nodded and closed his eyes, “Mom, I want to rest more. Please take care of Song Yu.”

In the following days, Song Ling was meticulously cared for. He often glanced at the door, hoping for a particular figure to appear.

Zhao Xuan, seeing Song Ling’s demeanor, knew he longed to see Gu Dai.

Shaking his head, he thought Song Ling’s situation was self-inflicted. If he hadn’t blindly supported Jiang Yue before, he wouldn’t be in this state.

Song Ling asked, “Zhao Xuan, where’s Jiang Yue?”

Zhao Xuan, snapping back to reality and realizing Song Ling’s concern, replied with discomfort, “Jiang Yue was taken away by Miss Gu Dai’s people.”

Song Ling hummed, then asked after a pause, “Give me your phone. I want to call Gu Dai and ask about Jiang Yue.”

Zhao Xuan handed over the phone, when he glanced over and saw the hope in Song Ling’s eyes, he realized Song Ling just wanted an excuse to contact Gu Dai.

Realizing this, his eyes instantly lit up, and even the motion of dialing the phone became much more spirited.

At this moment, Gu Dai was immersed in her work. Hearing the ringtone, she subconsciously answered, “Hello, may I ask what’s the matter?”

There was silence on the other end of the phone, prompting Gu Dai to frown in confusion. Her gaze fell on the caller id bearing Song Ling’s name, making her frown deepen in bewilderment. “Song Ling?” she inquired.

Song Ling pursed his lips before finally responding, “It’s me.”

Gu Dai suppressed the impatience at the bottom of her heart. “What do you want from me? If it’s nothing, I’m going to hang up.”

Song Ling hastily said, “I have something.”

Gu Dai remained silent, waiting for Song Ling to continue.

Song Ling:,”I was injured while saving you. Won’t you come to see me?”

Gu Dai paused, realizing that although she had saved him, he was also enduring pain. After pondering for a moment, she said, “I’ll give you money. How much do you want?”

Song Ling felt a pang in his heart and asked with a trembling voice, “Gu Dai, do you dislike me that much? To the extent that you’d rather give money than come to see me, you…”

Gu Dai didn’t let Song Ling finish, responding indifferently, “Mhmm.”

Song Ling’s breathing halted.

Gu Dai continued, “I’m very busy with work and don’t have time to waste on you. So, apart from money, I can’t offer you anything else.”

Song Ling took a deep breath and responded softly, then asked, “What about Jiang Yue?”

Gu Dai’s spirits lifted instantly. He set down the pen in his hand, leaned back in his chair, and said with a laugh, “I’m sorry, but if you wanted me to spare her, it’s already too late. I’ve already sent her to the police.”

Realizing Gu Dai’s misunderstanding, Song Ling quickly clarified, “I didn’t intend to save her. I think what you did was right. I’m sorry for being deceived by her before and hurting you.”

Song Ling added, “Gu Dai, I’m sorry..’
