Chapter 555: Chapter 547: Finally Back Chapter 555: Chapter 547: Finally Back She felt as if someone was shouting her name.
She rubbed her eyes, opening one and then the other, only to see Gu Ning’s usually expressionless face.
It seemed as though even his facial muscles were stiff.
“Time to eat,” Gu Ning put the lunchbox on the side.
Then, he unceremoniously sat himself down.
Tang Yuxin rolled over; she was not hungry right now, she wanted to sleep.
But her blanket was yanked away sharply; light streamed in, blinding her and effectively ruining her chances of getting sleep.
...
Tang Yuxin opened her eyes grudgingly and sat up.
Half-blinded by the concentrated light, she growled.
“Gu Ning, I’m going to kill you!”
Reaching out, she choked him, she had finally managed to fall asleep, didn’t he know how difficult it was for her to sleep nowadays?
After all this time, she finally got a chance to sleep well, but he had to disturb her.
Gu Ning let her choke him, and pat her head, like one would pat a pet dog.
“First, have some food.
I have something to discuss with you.”
After choking Gu Ning for a while, Tang Yuxin reluctantly released her grip.
She pulled the blanket around her, immediately transforming from a battle-ready warrior to a delicate lady.
Gu Ning handed her a bowl, placing it in Tang Yuxin’s hands.
In a word?
Eat.
A nerve near Tang Yuxin’s mouth twitched.
This was not a recovery meal, this was a pig’s feed.
Lowering her head, she looked at the big bowl of food in front of her, no, not a bowl, but a basin.
A basin that big, was it meant to stuff her to death?
“I’ll eat whatever you can’t finish,” Gu Ning crossed his legs and leaned back.
Despite having seen a fair share of bloodshed, he retained an aristocratic air.
His entire being exuded strength, from his muscles to his temperament.
Tang Yuxin picked up the chopsticks and began eating.
Originally, Tang Yuxin thought she had to take a train to the hospital, but to her surprise, a car was arranged for her.
Tang Yuxin felt she was benefitting from Gu Ning’s privilege.
But then again, if the advantage was at hand, she wouldn’t let it go squandered.
The car drove steadily without too many stops.
Her suitcase was in the trunk.
Gu Ning had brought the luggage back with all of her items in it.
Even her books were intact.
The car continued to travel uninterruptedly.
Seeing that a small distance took them several days of trekking, but was covered by the car in a few hours, made her marvel.
There were more cars on the road now.
No wonder they couldn’t find a vehicle for three days at their location; the place was quite remote.
Finding them in ten days was actually quite a feat.
The car arrived at the hospital by nightfall.
Tang Yuxin opened the door to her dormitory.
Due to her extended absence, the room was a bit stuffy but warm.
The employees’ dormitories also benefited from the hospital’s heating system, so there was never any cold.
Tang Yuxin carried her luggage inside.
Patting the suitcase, she said,
“It must’ve been tough on you.
Glad to have you back.”
Yes, she was glad to have it back.
This suitcase had been with her for many years.
Losing it felt like losing memories.
Some she wanted to let go but some she didn’t want to lose.
Fortunately, she was away only for a few days.
And the winter weather meant there was little housekeeping required.
Even if she had started tidying now, it would be midnight by the time she was done.
Deciding to tolerate it for one night, she went to bed.
