Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 377: Such Pain

After asking five or six doctors and even contacting some acquaintances he had known before, Gu Zheng discovered that what the doctor just said was indeed true!

And Li Jing had suddenly took a leave from the hospital an hour ago and wouldn’t return until tomorrow afternoon.

Was this a coincidence, or...?

Gu Zheng inquired with several nurses responsible for Gu Wanwan’s ward about Li Jing, but the responses were always genuinely positive ’reviews’.

Some even delicately said, "Such a young and promising doctor like Director Li with superb medical skills is really rare. It’s a mistake for Miss Gu to actively request for a change of the attending physician."

This made Gu Zheng even more curious about why Gu Wanwan wanted to change her attending physician.

With doubts in mind, he pressed the elevator button. It wasn’t long before the elevator doors opened and Gu Zheng stepped inside.

Perhaps due to the large number of patients today, the elevator was packed with people.

Among them were two young girls, their faces quite pale, appearing to be patients in the inpatient department of the hospital.

"Why did Director Li suddenly take a leave today? I wanted to ask him something!" one of the girls said regretfully.

"Did you want to ask him or were you missing him? Haha..." The other girl winked, seemingly seeing through her little thoughts.

On the pale girl’s face appeared a blush, "Don’t talk nonsense; I just felt unwell this morning, so I wanted to find him, okay? Don’t think I’m as infatuated as you are!"

Although she said so, the way she spoke already betrayed her inner feelings.

Indeed, her friend didn’t believe her at all and directly debunked her, "Come off it! When Director Li went to manage that suspect upstairs, weren’t you hiding under the blanket crying for quite a while? You think I didn’t know?"

"I didn’t! You heard wrong!" The speaking girl quickly covered her mouth seeing others were looking at her, "Stop talking nonsense, okay!"

"Alright, I was talking nonsense." Her friend didn’t discuss her matter anymore but suddenly leaned close to her ear, "But I heard, that suspect seems to be interested in our Director Li too, and he sent her flowers!"

Though the voice was soft, Gu Zheng was close enough to hear it.

Gu Wanwan is interested in Li Jing? Li Jing even sent her flowers?

Gu Zheng’s eyes showed a hint of shock. The police station had collected enough evidence, and even Bai Chengfan admitted the recording in Gu Ningyue’s hand was real. Gu Wanwan’s criminal actions have been confirmed, and yet Li Jing would show favor to such a person?

Even though she is his own daughter, Gu Zheng still found this situation impossible.

Why would Li Jing, a successful and handsome man, send flowers to court a criminal?

Recalling the nurses’ slightly resentful expressions just now, it seemed... they were not only displeased with Gu Wanwan’s change of attending doctor but also somewhat annoyed by her lack of appreciation.

Indeed! Someone as outstanding as Li Jing shows favor to Gu Wanwan, yet she chose to replace him?

In the eyes of others, this is indeed incomprehensible.

Probably when hearing about Gu Wanwan’s predicament, those who always admired Li Jing, must have felt Gu Wanwan deserved it!

Returning to Gu Wanwan’s ward, her face seemed like it was washed with water, painfully curled up there.

Beside her nightstand, in the vase, there was a bouquet of well-bloomed flowers.

Needless to say, Li Jing sent this bouquet.

Because, from his many years of knowing Li Yulan, even if she were hospitalized, she wouldn’t bring flowers in.

"Wanwan, why are you unwilling to find Li Jing here? What... did he do to you?"

Gu Zheng, although reluctant to believe the rumors heard, couldn’t help but voice his doubts seeing his daughter in such agony.

Gu Wanwan looked at Gu Zheng, her lips trembling for a while before speaking, "He... he’s the one who hurt me like this! Dad, it must be him..."

Gu Zheng looked at Gu Wanwan, his brows slightly furrowed, "What do you mean he harmed you? What did he do to you?" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Gu Wanwan had never resisted a person so much; even before, he hadn’t seen her this crazed.

Even enduring such pain, she didn’t want to call Li Jing to solve it.

Gu Wanwan looked at Gu Zheng, trying to control herself under such pain to utter a complete sentence, "He deliberately tormented me, purposely tampered with my body during exams, so I would turn out like this... Ahh..."

A sudden sharp pain drilled into her heart, making Gu Wanwan’s body curl into a ball.

Seeing this, Gu Zheng’s brows furrowed deeply, "I’ll call someone to bring Li Jing here, holding on like this, the pain will kill you."

"No... Don’t call him, Dad, don’t... please..."

Gu Zheng ignored Gu Wanwan and turned to leave the ward again.

If he let Gu Wanwan fool around like this, she wouldn’t be able to last.

Moreover, if what Gu Wanwan said is true, then even enduring through the night wouldn’t help without Li Jing.

The urgent need now is to get Gu Wanwan back to normal.

A few minutes later, Gu Zheng returned to the ward, "Wanwan, hold on for a little while longer. Li Jing will be back to check you in about half an hour."

Upon hearing the words "check," whether it was pain or fear, Gu Wanwan’s pupils suddenly shrank, shivering as she looked at Gu Zheng, "He’s a demon, Dad, I don’t want to see him... please, let him leave, Dad, let him... not come here..."

Gu Zheng took a tissue from the table, wiping the cold sweat from her face clean, "Wanwan, Dad is here. Even if Li Jing did something shameful, with Dad here, he wouldn’t dare do anything to you. Be good, wait for him to come back, alright?"

No matter what happened previously, Li Jing must appear today.

Gu Wanwan looked at Gu Zheng’s firm gaze, tears accumulating more and more in her eyes, blurring her vision.

The man who once promised to always love her betrayed her, humiliated her, and pushed all the blame onto her.

Her mother, who always taught her that only money is reliable, only had her brother in her eyes and didn’t even show up when she was dying.

Not long ago, the doctor she still held hope for, transformed into a demon, causing her such pain...

This place could no longer offer her any sense of security.

Now... who can she still trust and rely on?
