Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online

Chapter 879 - 882: Where Did Tian Buyu Hide?

She wasn’t brainless.

She carefully counted the days since the medical report, which was before Valentine’s Day—about several months ago, right?

She remembered that Doctor Tian had taken leave shortly after that and then disappeared from the Gu Family residence. Several times when she felt unwell and went to seek medication from Doctor Tian, but the butler said Doctor Tian had taken a long leave, thus Doctor He attended to her instead.

Was it really because of family matters? Or was it because Shaocheng had been diagnosed with Lou Gehrig’s disease?

She couldn’t let it go; she had to find Tian Buyu and ask him clearly!

"Shaocheng, why hasn’t Doctor Tian returned yet?"

Hearing her, Gu Shaocheng answered nonchalantly, "There was an issue in his family, he won’t be back to work for three to four years. Did you need him for something?"

She shook her head.

Thinking to herself, three to four years?

Her suspicions grew even stronger.

The repressed emotions within her became increasingly unbearable.

"Um, I have some medical questions I wanted to ask him," Chenxing said, adding another line, "about medicine."

He laughed. "Wow, my woman is now delving into the profound mysteries of medicine, huh? Would another doctor do?"

Chenxing pouted, "How about the fact that I used to be a nurse?"

"I only know Doctor Tian well; I’m more familiar with him. That Doctor He doesn’t seem as kind and approachable."

"Then ask Qianqian. You’re even closer with her than I am."

Chenxing bit her lip, remained silent, and wondered where Tian Buyu could be hiding?

Gu Shaocheng just said it casually, but Chenxing didn’t dare to actually ask Qianqian about whether there was a cure for Lou Gehrig’s disease or not.

She always felt that if Shaocheng intentionally kept it a secret, then he must have his reasons. Moreover, despite the Gu Family’s significant wealth and influence, there were lots of internal conflicts. If the news of Shaocheng’s illness were leaked, how could he maintain his position?

It’s okay to be naive and pure, but not foolish.

And Chenxing wasn’t foolish; she was just pampered and protected, fortunate enough to live a simple life in her world.

Yet, she felt Qianqian was trustworthy. When Shaocheng was once on the brink of death, it was Qianqian who had stood by him and pulled him back from the gates of hell.

As she deliberated, three days passed, and still, she made no moves.

She spent her days researching everything about Lou Gehrig’s disease and even unexpectedly discovered that the vitamins Shaocheng kept by his bed were not real vitamins at all.

She didn’t know what the pills were, but they definitely weren’t vitamins.

She stole one of the pills and put it in her purse, planning to go out. Just as she reached the doorway, Gu Shaocheng returned from outside, one hand in his pocket. Seeing her with her small bag looking ready to head out, he stroked his chin and approached. "Going out, hm?"

"I... I thought I’d go shopping."

Chenxing had made up a small lie.

"Hmm." He took her hand, pondering a moment. "I’ll come with you."

"Don’t you have things to do?" She just wanted to go to the hospital or another medical party to find out what the stolen pills were.

Gu Shaocheng was quite free today. He had just visited Tian Buyu’s place and wasn’t in a good mood. Generally, when he felt down, he liked to spend some time with her; teasing her often improved his spirits.

Often times, she was his stress relief, his way to ease the tension.

He hadn’t gone shopping with her for a long time, and suddenly feeling the urge, he said, "It’s fine, I’m quite free right now."
