CHAPTER 68: CHAPTER 68 KNOCKING ON THE DOOR!

Gu’s father was sent to the intensive care unit for observation, and was brought back to his original ward in the evening.

Gu’s father was still unconscious, but Gu Yan was completely relaxed.

Mrs. Gu was too pleased with the success of Gu’s father’s surgery to be upset with Gu Yan, focusing instead on taking care of him.

Without even looking at the dinner Gu Yan bought, she finished it.

The two stayed by Gu’s father’s side, barely slept that night, and both were in low spirits the next day.

Fortunately, Gu’s father woke up in the afternoon. The doctor came to check on him again and left after confirming there were no post-surgery complications.

Mrs. Gu, with reddened eyes, said, "Old Gu, it’s so good that you’re alright."

"Don’t worry." Gu’s father gently comforted her.

"Dad, you just woke up, it’s better not to speak, rest more."

"Yes, yes, yes, rest more. I’m here, you can sleep peacefully." For the first time, Mrs. Gu didn’t oppose Gu Yan and tried hard to persuade Gu’s father to keep quiet and rest.

Seeing this, Gu’s father felt somewhat comforted, "Okay, I’ll rest. You both have been up for a whole day and night, you should rest too."

"Okay, okay, okay, just sleep." Mrs. Gu urged him.

Gu’s father’s body was ultimately too weak; he fell asleep again not long after closing his eyes.

Seeing Gu’s father was completely fine, Gu Yan spoke to Mrs. Gu and then left with peace of mind.

When Gu Yan returned home, it was already near dusk, and having not slept all night, she was exhausted and immediately fell into a deep sleep on the bed.

The phone by the bed kept ringing, but the person on the bed didn’t move at all.

Across the road from Gu Yan’s residential area, a luxury car parked by the roadside. It was something never seen in this vicinity and drew frequent glances from passersby.

In the car, You Shuyang turned back to the expressionless man in the back seat and said, "President Tang, Miss Gu is not answering the phone."

"Keep calling." The man’s deep voice carried an invisible pressure.

You Shuyang called several more times but still, no one answered.

Tang Yuxiu’s expression began to darken. He glanced at his watch, 7:10!

This damned woman, not only late but also not answering her phone!

"Go up!" There was a hint of anger in the man’s voice.

You Shuyang hurriedly got out of the car and opened the rear car door.

Tang Yuxiu strode towards the residential area.

The people living in this area were all hardworking individuals, and had never seen a man like Tang Yuxiu, dressed in a suit, exuding extraordinary temperament, with an assistant following behind.

Those who passed by couldn’t help but gather around and discuss.

"Who is this? Why would he come here?"

"I don’t know, but he looks familiar, like I’ve seen him on TV or in the newspapers."

"So impressive?!"

As the chatter grew louder, Tang Yuxiu remained expressionless, though inwardly he cursed Gu Yan dozens of times.

That detestable woman, making him the center of attention and gossip, like some kind of clown!

You Shuyang could only feel that General Manager Tang’s mood was worsening, and his own heart rate quickened with fear that he might lose his temper.

As it was a low-cost residential area, the stairs were not particularly clean, with a lot of dust, spider webs on the ceiling, and even the voice-activated lights flickering on and off.

All the way up the stairs, Tang Yuxiu made no attempt to hide his disdain.

Finally reaching the door to Gu Yan’s place, Tang Yuxiu had You Shuyang dial Gu Yan’s phone once more.

The soundproofing in these apartments was poor, and the ringtone could be faintly heard from outside.

Gu Yan, daring enough to not answer her phone even at home, had truly become fearless!

"Knock on the door!"
