CHAPTER 67: CHAPTER 67: THE SURGERY WAS VERY SUCCESSFUL

After Gu Yan sent the text message, Qin Junnan did not reply. She put her phone aside, pulled out her suitcase, and began to organize her few belongings.

She really didn’t know why Tang Yuxiu wanted her to pack her things. Was she supposed to move in with him?

Thinking of this possibility made Gu Yan feel uneasy.

However, as a mistress, it was only natural to live with her benefactor. Since she had accepted it, she had no right to refuse.

Gu Yan packed everything with a bitter expression throughout.

Qin Junnan ended the text exchange with Gu Yan, fell silent for a while, and then dialed a phone number.

"Help me look into Gu Yan’s background."

If he wanted to pursue her, he needed to understand what her life had been like in the past few years when he wasn’t around.

In the future, that would be his responsibility.

The next day, Gu’s father’s surgery took place as scheduled.

Besides Gu Yan and Mrs. Gu, Li Xiulan and Gu Qin also came.

It wasn’t that they were particularly concerned about Gu’s father; they had heard that Gu Yan got the money to pay for the surgery, and they didn’t quite believe it, so they found a legitimate reason to come and see.

Not until Gu’s father was pushed into the operating room did they confirm that Gu Yan had acquired a million.

"What’s going on?" Li Xiulan asked Gu Qin in a whisper, "How did that wretched girl manage to get so much money?"

Gu Qin gazed thoughtfully at Gu Yan, remained silent, but felt uncomfortable inside.

Li Xiulan tugged at her arm, "Why aren’t you saying anything?"

Gu Qin impatiently replied, "Mom, stop asking, I don’t know either."

Li Xiulan frowned deeply, muttering to herself, "What kind of skills could this wretched girl have? It must have come from improper means, definitely!"

She couldn’t understand how Gu Yan, who she saw as worthless, could possibly accomplish more than her own daughter, who struggled so much to gather that money!

She thought Gu Yan must have done something outside to suddenly get a million.

Hearing Li Xiulan’s words, Gu Qin said nothing, secretly guessing, could it really be Tang Yuxiu who gave her the money?

If that’s the case, do they really have a relationship?

Gu Qin forced herself not to think about it. She couldn’t believe Gu Yan had such capability!

A perfect, wealthy, and powerful man like Tang Yuxiu should be her target, how could Gu Yan measure up!

Gu Yan sat on the bench, head down, waiting silently for Gu father’s surgery to end, oblivious to the mother and daughter across from her, who were openly and secretly criticizing her.

Even if she knew, Gu Yan had no interest in dealing with them.

Mrs. Gu paced back and forth anxiously at the entrance of the operating room.

If Mrs. Gu had any conscience left for someone, it would be for Gu’s father.

Mrs. Gu had no family; she followed Gu’s father from her teens. After decades together, their emotions had long settled and they had become accustomed to each other.

Gu’s father’s collapse this time worried Mrs. Gu the most.

After a long seven-hour surgery, the doctor finally came out, and Mrs. Gu hurried over to inquire about Gu father’s condition.

Gu Yan quickly went over as well.

"The surgery was very successful. As long as he rests well for a few months, the fracture in the right leg will heal, and he will be able to walk normally. But avoid further collisions or long distances. As for the heart, it has stabilized. Try to keep the patient from being too agitated, and generally, there shouldn’t be major problems. The family can relax now."

Upon hearing the doctor’s words, both Mrs. Gu and Gu Yan heaved a sigh of relief.

"Thank Heaven! Old Gu is fine!" Mrs. Gu was almost crying with joy.
