Chapter 151: Chapter 98 He Begins to Suspect Little Fish’s Background_2

His gaze intertwined with Bei Ran’s, quietly intersecting in the air.

"Doctor Gu, it’s your turn to move..." Grandma Zong Zheng said.

She looked up and saw that Bei Ran had also arrived.

"Bei Ran, you’re here!" Grandma Zong Zheng exclaimed, "Come in, come in!"

Bei Ran walked in: "Grandma..."

She placed the corn flour she bought on the cabinet beside, to which Grandma Zong Zheng remarked, "We still haven’t finished what you bought last time! You’ve bought again, you always bring gifts whenever you come."

"It’s all right, I was just passing by and thought I’d pick some up," Bei Ran said with a smile, "Actually, for the elderly, consuming these kinds of coarse grains is beneficial for the health, and it can also help prevent the ’three highs’, right, Doctor Gu?"

Gu Qingchen nodded: "Grandma, what Bei Ran said is correct!"

Bei Ran walked over: "Are you playing Ludo?"

Grandma Zong Zheng said somewhat embarrassedly, "Little Fish left this here, and Doctor Gu offered to play chess with me. He’s been letting me win. Young people like Doctor Gu are really rare these days..."

"Right, you two chat for a while, I’m going to cook. Let’s have dinner here tonight!" Grandma Zong Zheng suggested.

"There’s no need..." both Gu Qingchen and Bei Ran said in unison.

Both uttered three words and then simultaneously looked towards each other.

Grandma Zong Zheng looked at them: "That’s true, young people can go eat something, then stroll and watch a movie..."

"Grandma, it’s not like that, I have stuff to do when I get back, I haven’t been to work for a long time," Bei Ran hurriedly explained.

But Gu Qingchen offered no explanation.

After saying goodbye to Grandma Zong Zheng, the two walked out together.

"My car is nearby, get in, I’ll drive you back!" Gu Qingchen’s tone was assertive, not seeking permission.

Bei Ran gave him a glance: "How come you’re here?"

There was a faint, hardly noticeable sadness on Gu Qingchen’s face, "I was just wandering around, and then I found myself on Grandma’s side, so I came in to see..."

Actually, the death of Su Feng is what made Gu Qingchen’s heart very heavy.

Although he had been a doctor for over ten years, accustomed to the unpredictability of life and death,

Some feelings, nonetheless, brought him back to the thought of Zong Zheng.

Bei Ran didn’t bring up Zong Zheng’s issue anymore; she knew he was a reasonable person.

Or perhaps, she could understand his position as a doctor, but in her heart, for Zong Zheng, who had such a good relationship with her daughter Little Fish, she still hoped that Gu Qingchen could save Zong Zheng the first moment it was needed.

"Oh, Su Feng’s funeral is tomorrow, and Yang Ting wants us to see him off for the last part of his journey. You’ll be there, won’t you?" Bei Ran said.

Gu Qingchen nodded: "I’ll be there!"

"That’s good, that’s what I wanted to talk about!" Bei Ran moved forward.

But Gu Qingchen behind her didn’t follow.

He leaned against an ancient tree, watching Bei Ran’s gradually departing figure, and the sound of her footsteps growing fainter and fainter.

Just as Bei Ran was about to get on the bus, suddenly, Gu Qingchen rushed over to her and firmly grasped her wrist, "Bei Ran, let’s give each other a chance, okay?"

Bei Ran was already on the bus’s first step, whereas Gu Qingchen stood on the ground, holding onto her hand.

The driver was unable to close the doors or drive away.

And the passengers on the bus were all looking at these two people, Bei Ran feeling a bit embarrassed, "Let go!"

She didn’t like to monopolize public resources, so she got off the bus.

Before she could speak, Gu Qingchen suddenly embraced her. He held her so tightly, having once thought that medicine was his lifelong career.

Even though he faced life’s impermanence and witnessed partings between life and death daily, at this moment, he actually desired to stay by her side forever.

Perhaps it was Su Feng and Yang Ting’s love amidst life and death that touched some people!

If transcendence over life and death was possible, what’s more, for two people who had feelings for each other?

Bei Ran knew that Gu Qingchen wasn’t a man who easily showed his emotions.

He was accustomed to silence, accustomed to staying cool.

She also believed that his visit to Granny Zong Zheng’s home wasn’t a coincidence.

She could feel his desire to cure Zong Zheng, to revive him to a lively state where he could run, jump, and work, no longer trapped in a prolonged unconscious slumber.

He was undeniably a good doctor, and the day she angrily reprimanded him at the hospital, it was her personal emotions talking.

She was neither a judge nor a doctor; she couldn’t deliver a verdict on who was guilty, nor decide who to save first.

She was a person of clear-cut love and hatred, one who abhorred drunk driving. Naturally, she disliked that he had chosen to save Gao Yang first.

If that day, instead of Gao Yang and Zong Zheng being rescued at the same hospital, there had been another young man with the same ideals and talents, as passionate about life as Zong Zheng, and Gu Qingchen followed the principle of saving the one with the higher survival rate, she would never have harbored any anger towards Gu Qingchen.

Bei Ran patted his back gently: "Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. I lost control of my emotions that day, which is why I said those things! I know you too wish for Zong Zheng to wake up, and for him to become a doctor who saves lives and helps the injured."

Gu Qingchen looked at her, her eyes clear as water, as clean and bright as a creek.

"Not mad at me anymore?" After a while, Gu Qingchen asked softly.

Bei Ran sighed lightly: "You have your stance, and I have my decision."

She tried to struggle out of his embrace, but he only held her tighter.

"Let me hold you for a while, just a bit longer, that will be enough..." Gu Qingchen murmured low.

Bei Ran couldn’t bring herself to push him away, so the two of them stood there in the afterglow of the sunset, as the last rays of sunlight stretched their overlapping shadows long and far...

The following day.

In the memorial hall, Su Feng’s portrait was of a black and white photo with a radiant smile.

Most of the attendees were doctors and nurses from the hospital. When Bei Ran arrived, dressed in black, she bid farewell to the young life.

Yang Ting spoke to the crowd: "I’m deeply grateful to everyone for coming to send Su Feng on his final journey today, and thank you all for your care for him all this time, especially Doctor Gu... And today, I have good news to share with you all. I graduated from the nursing school this year and have been hired as a nurse at Hospital A. I’m willing to be part of it... I will never let down Su Feng’s expectations; I will live a strong, positive life!"

Everyone bid farewell to Su Feng, then Gu Qingchen and doctors like Yang Junyi returned to the hospital.

"How is it going? Did Miss Bei look for you?" Yang Junyi asked, "How’s the progress in your relationship?"

Gu Qingchen didn’t respond, and Yang Junyi guessed there probably hadn’t been any progress.

Just then, Yang Junyi’s phone rang, and after he answered, he said: "An architect just had an accident on the construction site and is being sent to our hospital. Are you going back to start the surgery?"

"Who is it?" Gu Qingchen inquired.

"Tang Baijin!" Yang Junyi announced, "The third young master of the Tang Family, as well-known as you. Are you coming back together?"

Gu Qingchen and Yang Junyi hurried back to the hospital, and after changing into surgical gowns, Gu Qingchen saw Tang Baijin’s medical record board and was unexpectedly struck by Tang Baijin’s blood type.

Bei Ran was O blood type, and Tang Baijin was also O type, so how could they possibly have an RH negative blood type daughter?

It was the most basic medical knowledge, even common people would understand, so how could Gu Qingchen, a surgeon with over a decade of experience, not know this?

"Is there a mistake with the blood type?" Gu Qingchen immediately asked the nurse, "You know the consequences of a mistake during surgery when blood transfusion is needed, right?"

There will be more updates during the day, wish you a good night!
