Chapter 480 Don't Blame Me for Turning My Back

The car left the underground parking lot and stopped in front of the Beihai Hotel.

Nanxing looked at the place from the car, raised an eyebrow, and said to Gu Yihe,

"Coming straight here? Quite a few people here know you, right? Who knows what kind of gossip they'll spread if they see you and me here? So are you sure you want to stay here?"

"I'm not someone anyone can gossip about. Besides, we're all open and honest, what's there to be ashamed of? Isn't it normal for friends to go out for a meal together?"

Gu Yihe said nonchalantly that he was still standing outside waiting for Nanxing to get off the car when he got out.

Nanxing didn't say anything more and got out of the car.

Since Gu Yihe doesn't care, she has even less reason to care.

She knew that someone had been secretly investigating her and even filming her recently, and she didn't know what kind of gossip would be directed at her and Gu Yihe this time.

Sure enough, as soon as the two entered the Beihai Hotel, the lobby manager immediately greeted them and led Gu Yihe to a private room with a smile.

He also took a few more glances at Nanxing, quite curious.

Actually, he recognized this woman; she had been here before, and he remembered her because of her appearance.

It later became a trending topic again. People knew it was that N, and there were rumors that this N had a close relationship with the Yun family.

Nanxing allowed the lobby manager to look her over without any hesitation. She was already prepared to receive some stares from passersby when she got out of the car.

"Manager Huang, everyone loves beauty. I know my friend is good-looking, but you can't keep staring at her like that. If you keep staring like that, you'll have to pay."

Gu Yihe's slow, slightly amused voice rang out, startling Manager Huang so much that he broke out in a cold sweat and immediately bowed his head in apology.

Gu Yihe's tone appeared calm and even had a smile, but it actually contained a warning.

It seems that this N not only has a close relationship with the Yun family, but also with the Gu family, and seems to have a good relationship with Madam Fu as well.

While thinking, the lobby manager led the two into a private room, poured them tea, and then left.

Gu Yihe handed the tablet for taking orders to Nanxing.

"Order whatever you want, it's on me today."

"Then I won't be polite."

Nanxing ordered what she wanted to eat first, and then handed the tablet to Gu Yihe.

Gu Yihe casually picked out two dishes he wanted to eat and placed the order.

“You’ve changed a lot. I’ve met you a few times before and you always seemed so shy. Grandma Fu and Auntie Fu always protected you and kept you hidden away. We never had a chance to talk to you or get to know you.”

“You are very different now than before. You are a completely different person, like a different person altogether.”

Gu Yihe sighed.

Nanxing paused for a moment before saying, "People change. So many years have passed, it would be strange if I hadn't changed at all, right?"

Gu Yihe smiled. "That's true."

It was obvious from the kitchen that the dishes were specially prepared for them first, and within twenty minutes, dishes were being served one after another.

Nanxing was really hungry, so she didn't say much to Gu Yihe and just ate with her head down.

Gu Yihe casually ate a couple of bites, then lowered his head to text.

After a while, he frowned slightly when he saw the message, and there was a hint of worry in his eyes. He sent another message before he felt relieved and continued eating.

Nanxing put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth with a tissue. Gu Yihe also put down his chopsticks.

"You're done eating so quickly?" Gu Yihe asked her.

Nanxing nodded. "Those five patients, were they brought in recently?"

"Yes, there were originally eight, but three didn't make it, so there are only five left."

Nanxing felt a little heavy-hearted after hearing this.

"So what do you think of these people's physical condition? Is there any way to help them?" Gu Yihe asked again.

"I'm not sure, I can only do my best. I need to read through all their examination reports from beginning to end to get a general idea."

Nanxing phrased it rather tactfully, but Gu Yihe breathed a sigh of relief.

"So you're willing to help heal them, is that right?"

"I only said I would do my best. I'm not sure if I can succeed, especially since they are different from the person I met before."

"Okay, I'll have someone organize those people's information and send it to you when I get back tonight. You can contact me anytime if you have any questions."

Nanxing nodded. "I'm leaving now. Remember not to let anyone know about this, or don't blame me for turning my back on you."

"Don't worry, I promise I won't say a single word about this."

“However…” Gu Yihe paused, looking at her hesitantly, as if wondering whether to continue.

"But what?" Nanxing's face turned cold. "If you can't do it, then you can pretend I didn't say anything."

"Of course not, that's not what I meant." Gu Yihe said helplessly, "I was just wondering whether I should send you a copy of Lu Mingzhu's medical report as well."

“No need, I still had some when I treated her last time.” As Nanxing was about to leave, Gu Yihe called her back.

"Then wait a moment. I've had some desserts packed up here. You can take them back for the three little ones."

"Thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary." Nanxing didn't want the children to have too much involvement with Gu Yihe.

Especially since Gu Yihe still harbors different feelings for Feng Jiejie.

Nanxing had already walked out, and Gu Yihe followed. The lobby manager was already standing at the door with an insulated bag, and handed the bag to the two of them when they came out.

Before Nanxing could refuse, Gu Yihe's voice rang out first.

"Take it back and let them try it. It's all prepared, it would be a waste not to take it."

Upon hearing Gu Yihe's words, the lobby manager immediately handed the bag to Nanxing.

Nanxing sneered; Gu Yihe was clearly trying to morally blackmail her.

"No need. I'll buy it myself if I want to eat it. Anyway, you'd better remember what I just said. If you leak even a little bit out, don't blame me for turning my back on you."

Gu Yihe paused for a moment, then nodded, no longer pressuring Nanxing to accept it.

"Also, you can't even tell the old lady about this, or you'll have to bear the consequences."

Nanxing turned and left.

She didn't tell her master because she didn't want him to worry. She knew her master didn't want her to get involved in these things, but now it was difficult to extricate herself.

"Mr. Gu, isn't this woman being a bit too... rude to you?" The lobby manager had never seen anyone dare to treat Gu Yihe like this before, and thinking he was being clever by trying to curry favor with him, he said this.

But the next second he received a warning look from Gu Yihe.

"Manager Huang, if you can't speak properly, then don't speak at all. You'd better remember her face and be respectful to her in the future. Offending her will do you no good. Even I have to watch my step when I see her, understand?"

His insistence on acting according to Nanxing's mood was indeed a bit of an exaggeration, but it could also be seen as protecting Nanxing.

However, given the relationship between Nanxing, Fu Yunchuan, and Feng Jiejie, plus the presence of his grandmother, it's not uncommon for him to act according to Nanxing's wishes.

These three are people he can't afford to offend, yet they all protect Nanxing like the apple of their eye.

Manager Huang was sweating profusely and nodded repeatedly in agreement.

"And these snacks..."

"Give it to me." Gu Yihe took the insulated bag and left. Since he couldn't send it out from Nanxing, he could send it through Feng Jiejie.

Thinking of Feng Jiejie, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. He had plenty of time to take his time.

The lobby manager respectfully saw Gu Yihe off before straightening up and wiping the sweat from his forehead.

He almost thought he was going to be dealt with by Gu Yihe. Just who was this N? How could Gu Yihe say something like that?

It looks like he'll have to be more careful about who he chooses in the future.

Nanxing had already told Gu Yihe on her way to dinner that she didn't need him to take her, as she had made plans with other people.

In fact, this person was Old Mrs. Fu and Mrs. Fu.

The old lady missed Nanxing so much that she couldn't help but ask him in the morning if he was free and if he wanted to have dinner or go shopping together in the evening.

Nanxing wasn't sure how late she and Gu Yihe would be busy, so she didn't suggest having dinner together, but they could go shopping together. At this time, she could still have dinner with the two of them.

She deliberately didn't eat enough so that she could bring the children over to keep the two of them company.

Let's wait a little longer. Once everything settles down, she'll spend more time with the children, grandma, and Aunt Fu.

In the taxi, she sent a message to Feng Jiejie, saying that Feng Jiejie was going out for a business dinner that night and she wanted to ask where the business dinner was, so she could see if they could go back together.

After sending the message and receiving no reply for nearly ten minutes, Nanxing felt uneasy and a little anxious.

She sent another message to Feng Jiejie, asking her to reply with any emoji.

She knew that Feng Jiejie was often too busy with work to see messages, and even if she saw them and was sure there was nothing important, she would reply late because she was too busy to reply.

Nanxing has experienced many things like this before, and even considers them normal. But today, for some reason, a little bit of unease flashed through her mind.

She suppressed her unease, thinking it was a lingering effect of seeing the patients earlier.

She learned the general identities of those patients from Gu Yihe.

They were either homeless people, or people who had to try drugs for money, and there was another one that appeared out of nowhere.

Those people are truly pitiful right now. One second they might be happy, and the next they might be in unbearable pain.

She took a deep breath to calm herself down. She could only do her best, and after doing her best, she could say that she had a clear conscience and had done right by her path of studying medicine.

This time, Mrs. Fu booked the same vegetarian restaurant as last time. There is a large, upscale shopping mall next door, so she can go shopping there afterward.

She was initially quite happy to meet her grandmother and mother-in-law, especially now that they didn't have to hide their meeting. However, while shopping at the mall, Nanxing was actually a little absent-minded.

Two hours have passed and Feng Jiejie still hasn't replied to the message. Even if she's busy with social engagements, shouldn't she at least check her phone?

"Xingxing, what's wrong? You've seemed distracted ever since you entered the mall. Are you missing the children? Why don't you go back and spend time with them? I'd be happy if we could have a meal together today." The old lady patted Nanxing's hand and said with a smile.

She would be content as long as she could have a meal with Nanxing, and she understood Nanxing's desire to go back and see the children.

Mrs. Fu: "Yes, Xingxing, if you want to go back to see the children, have the driver take you back first. I'll stay here with your grandmother and wait for the driver to come back."

Nanxing looked at the two of them and said, "No, I see the children every day, so it's not like I miss them after not seeing them for half a day. I'm just worried about Jiejie."

“She has a social engagement today, and I’ve sent her several messages but she hasn’t replied. I’m just a little worried. Grandma, Mom, wait for me a moment, I’ll call him first.”

Upon hearing Nanxing's words, the two immediately told her to make a phone call, and their faces showed a hint of worry.

Nanxing picked up his phone and called Feng Jiejie directly. The call went through but no one answered; it remained unanswered.

She understands why; it's proper to silence your phone when socializing.

Nanxing thought for a moment and then called Feng Jiejie's assistant, Xiao Li.

This whole thing was just her making a fuss, or even overreacting, but she had a persistent feeling of unease.

Mrs. Fu and the old lady became even more worried as they watched Nanxing's complexion worsen and the phone remained unanswered.

"Xingxing, why is no one answering the phone?" the old lady asked.

"Yes, I'm calling her assistant now to ask. They should be together."

But the truth is that no one answered Xiao Li's phone. Nan Xing was certain that something must have happened, otherwise this wouldn't be the case.

Without much hesitation, she called Yun Shen and asked him to find out where Feng Jiejie was.

She hung up the phone with Yun Shen before looking at the old lady and Madam Fu.

"Grandma, Mom, I'm still a little worried about Jie Jie, so I need to go check on her. Or should I take you two home first?"

"No need, no need. You go see Jie Jie first. The two of us will stroll around here for a while. Don't worry about us. I'll have the driver wait for you at the main entrance. Just get in the car. If your brother calls later, he can tell you if he doesn't want to go."

As she spoke, Madam Fu called the driver and instructed him to wait for Nanxing at the main gate.

Nanxing glanced at the two men, and the two servants following not far behind, and then nodded.

"Okay, Mom, Grandma, I'll definitely spend a whole day with you when I have time."

The old lady said, "Alright, alright, you go see Jie Jie first, don't worry about us."

Mrs. Fu: "Let me know by sending a message whether there's anything wrong or not, so I can feel at ease."

Nanxing didn't say anything more, just mumbled "okay" and turned to leave quickly.

Mrs. Fu and the old lady were extremely worried as they watched her anxious figure disappear into the distance.

"I hope Jie Jie is alright," the old lady sighed.

"Everything will be alright. Now that the Yun family is here, both girls have someone to rely on, so we can rest assured," Madam Fu said softly.

After Nanxing left, the two had their family driver pick them up, having no intention of continuing their shopping trip.

Nanxing had just gotten into the Fu family driver's car when she received a call from Yun Shen.
