Chapter 142 A Sore Subject
Gu Ruoruo is frightened by the sudden heard voice and almost loses her balance. A person rushes to her and supports her.
Gu Ruoruo looks carefully and finds that the speaker is Yi Yunyi.
“Why are you here? It’s past one in the midnight.”
Yi Yunyi opens his mouth but he suddenly has a naughty idea, “Hehe, I am coming to check whether you are sleeping nor not.”
Gu Ruoruo’s heart jumps, “Does it have anything to do with you whether I am sleeping or not?”
Yi Yunyi grins at her and says naughtily, “Of course. Ruoruo, you were hit by me. Where are you going? Do you want me to hold you to?”
Hearing this, Gu Ruoruo instinctively steps back and shakes her head, “No need. Uncle, you may go back to sleep. You can leave me alone...”
“How can I leave you alone? You can’t walk properly now. Why not go to my room directly and let me take care of you?”
Scared by Yi Yunyi’s rogue-like words, Gu Ruouo takes two more steps backwards, “No, no. I just want to get some fresh air. I am fine now. I may go back to my room.”
Saying this, Gu Ruoruo closes the door, but is stopped by Yi Yunyi.
Gu Ruoruo is angry, “Uncle, what do you want to do?”
Yi Yunyi lifts his eyebrows, “Do you feel that I am old? You call me uncle.”
Gu Ruoruo blinks her eyes, “Well...Are you over thirty years old?”
Yi Yunyi twitches his lips slightly, “Age...is not a problem. The question is whether I look as old as an uncle.”
Gu Ruoruo looks at Yi Yunyi carefully.
Instead of saying that he looks as old as an uncle, she would rather say that he gives out the sense of maturity.
However, this uncle is really good-looking, as handsome as Korean stars!
“You look quite good.” Gu Ruoruo says honestly, “If you don’t like me to call you uncle, I can change to call you brother.”
Brother...Yi Yunyi shivers for shock. Seemingly, he would like her to call him uncle.
“You may still call me uncle.”
Gu Ruoruo covers her mouth and giggles. This uncle is quite funny.
“Uncle, the problem is solved. You may go back to sleep, so do I.” Saying this, Gu Ruoruo wants to close the door again.
“Wait a minute!” Yi Yunyi stops her again, “You are awake and Doctor Wu said that you need a change of medicine. You may go back to lie down and I will change the medicine for you. It won’t take much time.”
Gu Ruoruo widens her eyes. Change the medicine? He changes it for her?
“Well...It is very late. I am sleepy. The wounds on my feet are fine. I may wait for Doctor Wu to change the medicine tomorrow.” Seeing that Yi Yunyi stands at the door and is unwilling to move, Gu Ruoruo pushes him, “Uncle, don’t make a fuss here. You are old enough. Go back to sleep...”
“What’s wrong?” Yi Yunyi sees her suddenly grit her teeth and twitch her mouth. His heart tightens, “How do you feel?”
“Si...!” Gu Ruoruo rolls her eyes at Yi Yunyi angrily.
It is all your fault!
“Do the wounds on your feet hurt?” Yi Yunyi says and reaches to hold Gu Ruoruo and lifts her up.
“Hey, what are you doing. Put me down.” Gu Ruoruo finds herself lifted up. She hits him in scare.
Regardless that, Yi Yunyi holds Gu Ruoruo and puts her on the bed. Then, he rolls up her trousers.
“Hey, Uncle, how can you be so randy?” Gu Ruoruo says and kicks at Yi Yunyi but is stopped by Yi Yunyi when she has just half lifted her leg.
Looking at her bleeding wounds, Yi Yunyi frowns, “What did you do just now? Why do the wounds tear?”
Gu Ruoruo curls her lips, “Nothing. Let me go, or, I will yell.”
“All right. You may yell. You’d better yell loudly.” Yi Yunyi says indifferently.
“You!” Gu Ruoruo widens her eyes. What’s wrong with the uncle’s mind?
“You yell and they will see everything between you and me when they come here. Let’s see who will feel embarrassed.” Yi Yunyi gives a seeming smile.
Hearing this, Gu Ruoruo blushes, “You rogue. Shameless!”
Yi Yunyi smiles, “Hum. Correct. They all call me rogue. Miss Gu Ruoruo, if you don’t behave well, the wounds on your feet may not be able to get cured in two weeks.”
Gu Ruoruo is shocked, “Are they so serious?”
“Not now, but I am unsure whether they will be later. The wounds are torn now. It will be very troublesome if they get the bacterial infection.”
Gu Ruoruo’s face darkens. She says very sadly, “What can I do? I have to go to the exclusive interview tomorrow. If I can’t walk, Sister Xia will definitely not take me with her.”
“Why do you want so much to go to the exclusive interview?” Yi Yunyi is confused, “Normally, girls’ idols are handsome boys. Why do you like a woman?”
“It is not that I like a woman!” Gu Ruoruo rolls her eyes at Yi Yunyi, “I adore her! Yin Jingsi is a woman of legend for our generation in US! She is beautiful and very successful in her career and marriage. She is a goddess! Who don’t adore women like her?”
Yi Yunyi lifts his eyebrows, “It seems that Yin Jingsi is very famous abroad.”
“Yes. She is awesome!” Gu Ruoruo admires, “If only I could be as excellent as her. I would not ask for fame and money. I would be satisfied if I could find a good husband like Ou Yixuan.”
“Ugh, ugh!” Yi Yunyi is surprised, “What did you say? Find a husband like Ou Yixuan...”
God. What’s wrong with this woman? Hasn’t she heard about Ou Yixuan’s “romantic stories”?
“Yes.” Gu Ruoruo says decisively, “Ou Yixuan is an elite in college. He and Yin Jingsi make a perfect couple, a talented man and a beautiful woman. I really envy Yin Jingsi.”
Yi Yunyi twitches his eyebrows. He murmurs, “Didn’t the newspaper abroad report anything about Ou Yixuan’s romance? This man may not be as good as you imagine.”
Even the most stupid people will understand what Yi Yunyi means, but Gu Ruoruo curls her lips, “Ou Yixuan is a successful man and it is natural for many people to like him. That’s not surprising. The most important thing is that he loves Yin Jingsi very much. Their love story is just like a fairy tale!”
Yi Yunyi puts on a wry smile and shakes his head. Well, in the cute girl’s opinion, everything is beautiful.
It is so beautiful that it looks like a fairy tale.
Yi Yunyi moves his lips. He wants to ask whether Gu Ruoruo knows anything about Xia Ning and Ou Yixuan. But he changes his mind and stops.
Leave a fairy tale to her. No matter whether she knows something or not, the result is not going to change.
“But you are injured so badly, you really can’t go with Xia Ning. People will laugh at you.” Yi Yunyi says and stands up, “Wait for a moment, I will bring the medical kit and change the medicine for you.”
Hearing Yi Yunyi’s words, Gu Ruoruo feels very depressed.
Why is she so unlucky to be “hit” by a car all of a sudden?
Soon, Yi Yunyi comes back, carrying a medical kit with him.
“Don’t move. I will change the medicine for you.” Yi Yunyi says and unties the bandage on Gu Ruoruo’s feet.
“Ah...” Gu Ruoruo gives a sigh, “I can’t go...I really want to, really.”
Seeing this, Yi Yunyi helplessly shakes his head, “Do you really want to go so much?”
“Hum! Yes.” Gu Ruoruo’s eyes brightens, “Uncle, can you give me some anaesthetic on the wounds, so that I can go with Sister Xia tomorrow.”
Yi Yunyi rolls his eyes at her.
Seemingly, the speaking girl is innocent enough to go extinct.
“You can have some anaesthetic on the wounds. However, you will have no feeling for your feet and be unable to walk.”
“Ah?” Gu Ruoruo widens her eyes, “No, that won’t do. What can I do?”
Yi Yunyi gives a sigh, “As long as your feet are cured. There are lots of opportunities in the future. Why do you have to meet her this time?”
Gu Ruoruo curls her lips, “With my wisdom, I don’t know when I will get a second chance.”
Seeing her so sad, Yi Yunyi almost speaks out the words, but he manages to hold them back at once.
It is easy to meet Yin Jingsi and he can create an opportunity for Gu Ruoruo. However, the point is that the Yin’s sisters are not kind people. If it is possible, she’d better not meet her.
Especially as to Gu Ruoruo, he doesn’t want her to know some disreputable events.
“I think that you are smart. Why do you despise yourself?”
“Am I smart?” Gu Ruoruo blinks her eyes and then she smiles happily, “Uncle, you are the first person to say that I am smart.”
Yi Yunyi is shocked, “Why am I the first person?” Haven’t her parents and her family ever said something like that?
Gu Ruoruo gives a sigh. Her eyes darken, “They don’t like me. I don’t want to bother them.”
Yi Yunyi’s hands pause and unconsciously he tightens his heart.
What does she mean by...not want to bother them?
Does Gu Ruoruo mean her family by “them”?
Not knowing why, Yi Yunyi wants to know the reason very much. He doesn’t want to see her unhappy.
“Ning said that Gu Luan, the Director of World Era Weekly is your brother. Is he?”
“Hum.” Gu Ruoruo nods, “I have always wanted to work at World Era Weekly. So, I went to Brother Luan. I know he is seemingly good with me, but I know that Brother Luan doesn’t like me at all in his heart.”
“Why do you say so? Are there any misunderstandings?”
Gu Ruoruo shakes her head, “No misunderstandings. Because...” Gu Ruoruo suddenly pauses in the middle. She lowers her head, “Let it be. I don’t want to tell. Uncle, please don’t ask. Now I can’t walk and can’t go with Sister Xia to the exclusive interview. I must be blamed by Brother Luan when we go back.”
Yi Yunyi has a lot of questions in his mind, but it seems that there are some secrets between Gu Ruoruo and Gu Luan.
“Well, Uncle, what’s your job? Now, it is almost two o’clock. You will not have enough sleep if you don’t go to bed now. If your boss finds you sleepy tomorrow, you will be scolded.”
Hearing this, Yi Yunyi can’t help laughing.
As to work, it seems that no one dares to give him a bad look.
Looking at Gu Ruoruo’s concerning eyes, Yi Yunyi suddenly feels moved, as if some strange feeling flows inside his body to his limbs. He feels kind of excited.
