Chapter 295: Chapter 295: Yan Luoxi: I want to pounce into that jerk’s arms, nuzzle his neck, and have him pat my head...

"President Yan, wait for me. I’ll take you to the hospital."

Gu Yizhou caught up with Yan Luoxi at the elevator doors.

Seeing her like this, he couldn’t help but worry.

"You..."

Yan Luoxi was a bit stunned to see Gu Yizhou chasing after her.

"Don’t argue. Come with me."

As he spoke, Gu Yizhou pulled Yan Luoxi into the elevator and headed for the parking garage.

In that moment, Gu Yizhou made Yan Luoxi feel incredibly safe and warm.

Her nose tingled, and she suddenly felt the urge to cry.

She didn’t say another word, silently following Gu Yizhou to the underground parking garage and getting into the car.

...

Without breaking any traffic laws, Gu Yizhou pushed the car to its limits, weaving skillfully through the traffic.

「Half an hour later.」

「Modu People’s Hospital.」

Gu Yizhou executed a beautiful drift and brought the car to a steady stop.

"President Yan, we’re here," Gu Yizhou said, turning to the somewhat dazed Yan Luoxi.

"Mm."

Yan Luoxi nodded and hurried out of the car.

Gu Yizhou silently followed close behind her.

When they reached the elevators, Gu Yizhou stopped and said to Yan Luoxi, "President Yan, I won’t go in. Um... I’ll wait for you downstairs. Call me anytime if you need anything."

Yan Luoxi paused for a moment, then nodded. "Okay."

With that, she rushed into the elevator.

After watching her get into the elevator, Gu Yizhou walked over to the family waiting area, found a chair, and sat down.

’I hope President Yan’s mom is okay,’ he thought.

...

As for Yan Luoxi,

when she hurried to the door of the hospital room, she was met with a scene that left her completely dumbfounded.

Inside the room, her father, Yan Zhenbang, was sitting by the hospital bed peeling an apple for her mother. The two of them were talking and laughing, not looking like someone was sick at all.

’What is going on?’

Baffled, Yan Luoxi stared blankly and said, "Dad? Mom? What are you...?"

Seeing Yan Luoxi suddenly appear, Ms. Tang was also taken aback for a second. "Xixi, why are you here?"

"Ahem, I was the one who called her," Yan Zhenbang said awkwardly from the side.

Hearing this, Tang Wanfang was speechless.

She first shot a glare at her husband, then explained, "Xixi, Mom’s fine. My stomach was just a little upset today, and I didn’t have an appetite, so I didn’t eat anything. As a result, I accidentally fainted from low blood sugar."

"Your father is just so impatient. He didn’t even wait for the doctor to finish talking before he rushed to call you over. Honestly!"

"Uh..."

After hearing her mom’s explanation, Yan Luoxi was at a loss for words.

She had been worried sick, and it turned out to be a huge false alarm!

Still, this was for the best.

As long as her mom was okay, that was all that mattered. Otherwise, Yan Luoxi wouldn’t have known what to do.

Although she often had minor squabbles with her mother, deep down, she cared about her immensely.

Thankfully, it was just a scare.

The heavy weight on her heart from the whole ride over could finally be lifted.

She suddenly remembered that Gu Yizhou was still waiting for her downstairs. She turned to her parents and said, "Mom, Dad, I’m going to step out and make a call. A colleague from work drove me here and is still waiting downstairs. I’ll tell him he can go home."

"Hm?"

’A colleague?’

Hearing this, Tang Wanfang paused.

But Yan Zhenbang, who was beside them, heard this and said thoughtfully, "Xixi, was it Xiaogu who brought you here?"

"Yes."

Yan Luoxi nodded lightly.

"Xiaogu?"

Tang Wanfang glanced at the father and daughter, a look of confusion on her face. She didn’t quite understand their conversation.

’And who is this mysterious ’Xiaogu’ colleague who suddenly popped up? Even my husband knows him.’

Seeing his wife’s puzzled expression, Yan Zhenbang explained, "Xiaogu is an employee in the company’s finance department. I just met him this afternoon when I went to the company to see Xixi. A very fine young man."

"Oh, I see."

After hearing her husband’s words, Tang Wanfang finally understood what was going on.

But at the same time, she was a little surprised.

Her husband had always been quite picky, so she didn’t expect him to have such a high opinion of someone he’d just met for the first time.

This piqued her curiosity, and she said, "Xixi, since he drove you all the way here, why didn’t you ask the young man to come up? Honestly!"

"Uh..."

Yan Luoxi froze for a second, then said, "Mom, he just gave me a ride on his way. He didn’t come specifically to see you. Why would you ask him to come up?"

She wasn’t quite ready for that dog man to meet her mother yet.

"Aiya, what a thing to say! Xiaogu went out of his way to bring you here. You can’t just disregard his kindness."

Tang Wanfang shot her daughter a look. "Where is Xiaogu now? Hurry up and have him come up. I want to thank him properly."

Yan Luoxi: "..."

She turned to look at her dad.

Yan Zhenbang got the signal. He naturally knew his daughter wanted him to say something.

So he spoke up, "Alright, Wanfang, it really would be inconvenient to have Xiaogu come up."

After speaking, he turned back to Yan Luoxi. "Xixi, don’t just call him. Go downstairs and tell Xiaogu in person. And while you’re at it, thank him on behalf of your mother and me."

"Okay."

Hearing her father’s words, Yan Luoxi agreed without hesitation and left the hospital room.

...

After going downstairs, Yan Luoxi immediately spotted Gu Yizhou sitting in a chair in the waiting area, looking down at his phone.

She walked over and called out to Gu Yizhou, "You... Gu Yizhou."

The two words, ’dog man,’ had almost slipped out.

Hearing Yan Luoxi’s voice, Gu Yizhou looked up at her and said, "President Yan, you’re back. Is your mother okay?"

"Yes, she’s fine. It was just low blood sugar that made her faint," Yan Luoxi explained.

"Oh, that’s good."

Gu Yizhou nodded slightly, then stood up. "Since she’s okay, I’ll head back now. I won’t disturb your family reunion."

"Wait," Yan Luoxi said suddenly.

"Hm?"

Gu Yizhou turned and looked at her, confused.

"Gu Yizhou, thank you for helping me today," Yan Luoxi said, looking at him sincerely.

Gazing into her bright eyes, Gu Yizhou felt an inexplicable emotion surge within him. He smiled faintly and said softly, "President Yan, aren’t we friends? There’s no need for thanks between friends."

Hearing this, Yan Luoxi was taken aback.

A strange feeling swirled inside her.

Yan Luoxi felt her nose tingle intensely, and she was suddenly overcome with the impulse to throw herself into the dog man’s arms, nuzzle his neck, and have him pat her head...
