Chapter 314: Do You Care or Not
The family doctor checked on Gu Tiantian’s condition and only slowly began to speak after a while.
"Sir, Miss Gu’s physical condition has stabilized, better than before. As for the depression, due to this episode, it has also improved a lot. With a good mindset, there shouldn’t be any big problems."
Bai Chenyao said nothing, looking at the family doctor with an indifferent expression.
The family doctor glanced at him, lowered his eyes, and spoke again.
"If there’s nothing else you need, sir, I’ll be leaving now."
Seeing Mr. Bai nod, the family doctor breathed a sigh of relief, tidied up the medical kit, and quickly walked out.
Once outside, he took a long deep breath.
Thinking back to the scene of blood all over the floor when he came in, he still felt a chill up his spine.
He never imagined that Miss Gu, who seemed so delicate and exceptionally compliant with sir, would have such courage to do something as unbelievable as attempting suicide.
Fortunately, at that time, Miss Gu didn’t have much strength. Otherwise, with that cut, she would have hit a major artery, and if he hadn’t been waiting outside, if he arrived as usual, he’d probably be too late to save her.
Thinking about sir’s call for him to come over earlier, the family doctor suddenly had a look of realization.
"Could it be that sir deliberately provoked Miss Gu?"
The thought brought back the conclusion he had made when he examined Miss Gu before – she already had depression, but it wasn’t too serious and she hadn’t shown any self-harming behavior, so she herself hadn’t noticed.
Recalling how Miss Gu fainted due to overwhelming anger, obstructing her circulation...
The family doctor pressed his lips together, looked back at the tightly closed bedroom door, glanced at Mrs. Chen who was smiling at him from the downstairs foyer, and thought about the ambiguous words sir had said in the bedroom earlier, feeling particularly forlorn for a moment.
It seemed clear that sir did care about Miss Gu.
But if he truly cared, why would he provoke Miss Gu to the point where she chose to attempt suicide?
Suicide!
What kind of courage does that take?
The family doctor shook his head, sighed, and headed downstairs as Mrs. Chen watched and hurriedly approached him.
"Doctor Chen, how is Miss Gu’s condition?"
The family doctor smiled, his voice very gentle.
"She’s fine, as long as she rests well and replenishes her nutrition properly."
Mrs. Chen heard this and breathed a sigh of relief.
"That’s good, that’s good, thank you so much, Doctor Chen."
The family doctor smiled again, exchanged a few pleasantries with Mrs. Chen, and then left with his medical kit.

Gu Tiantian woke up at 8:30 the next morning.
The sound of rustling paper nearby reached her ears; she felt her eyelids were heavy and it took her a while to open them with effort.
Seeing the familiar room, memories of everything that had happened suddenly flashed in her mind.
She quickly turned her head, but the speed pulled on her neck wound, causing her to let out a pained grunt.
Sitting on the sofa reading documents, Bai Chenyao heard the noise and slowly raised his eyes, his deep, dark eyes staring straight at her.
Their eyes met, one indifferent and cold, the other urgent and uneasy.
"Bai... A Yao, where’s my grandma?"
The wound on her neck hurt with even a slight movement, making Gu Tiantian’s face turn pale. Her large, dark eyes stared unblinkingly at Bai Chenyao.
Bai Chenyao retracted his gaze, lowered his head, and continued flipping through the documents in his hands, his voice exceptionally cold.
"Since you’re still alive, she’s naturally fine too!"
