Lin Qingping and Gu Juncheng

Chapter 352 It's hard to forget someone

In the quiet night, only Gu Youlian's soft sobs could be heard.

Gu Juncheng knew this older sister. The whole family had opposed her marrying Du Gen, but she insisted on going her own way, so in the end, they had no choice but to comply. Although he wasn't home often, he had heard his parents mention how she protected the Du family and Du Gen after she married into the family.

But clearly, Dugan is not worthy of his sister's devotion, so this time, he must not let his sister have her way again!

Gu Juncheng looked at his sister who was silently shedding tears and whispered, "Sister, I know it's hard and painful to forget someone, but this time, can you hold on, endure it, and let it pass?"

Gu Youlian looked up at her younger brother's strong features, and a wave of sorrow washed over her. Yet, she also sighed, realizing that even someone like her brother understood how difficult it was to "forget someone."

He couldn't help but say, "If it's so hard for you, then don't forget! Who forced you to forget?"

Gu Youlian knew who he was talking about, of course. Back then, when Chen Xia's family broke off the engagement, he was completely unharmed.

Gu Juncheng retorted, "I was talking about you, why are you dragging me into this!"

Gu Youlian sighed, "I know that this time, even if I hesitate, I won't be able to see Xiaomai."

She wiped away her tears. "I'll go back to the hospital now. Go and get the bottle back." She had acted too impulsively just now. Now that she had calmed down, she felt even more guilty and grateful towards Lin Qingping.

"Wash your face and change your clothes before you go."

Gu Youlian looked at herself and realized that she really looked disheveled. She was afraid of scaring Xiaomai.

She nodded and went inside.

He Qiancheng and the others, who were waiting outside the courtyard, came in, along with Zhong Xiaoxiao, who wanted to see if there was anything she could help with.

Don't say it, there really is!

After Gu Youlian changed her clothes and washed her face, she came out with a very troubled expression and begged He Qiancheng and the others for a favor—to move in with them, which was actually to help her guard the house.

"I know this is a tricky matter. If... if someone comes to cause trouble, we'll just keep the door closed." Gu Youlian knew how difficult the Du family was to deal with, but this house was her and Xiaomai's foundation, and she really couldn't let the Du family go back and forcibly take it back.

Gu Youlian also felt that this was too much trouble for others, and if they hesitated even a little, she would immediately say no, and she would never mind.

However, He Qiancheng and his group agreed without hesitation. What kind of help was this? It was just a matter of sleeping in the house.

Gu Youlian then went to the hospital with Gu Juncheng.

After all that commotion, it was nearly midnight, and the hospital was quiet. Their arrival at this time violated the hospital's visitation rules, earning them a scolding from the nurses.

In the ward, Lin Qingping sat beside Xiaomai the whole time.

Wheat's fever subsided, and she broke out in a sweat. Lin Qingping took a towel, soaked it in hot water, and gently wiped her down.

This is the scene that Gu Youlian and Gu Juncheng saw when they entered.

Gu Youlian's tears immediately fell again, a mixture of gratitude and guilt.

I am moved by everything I have done for Lin Qingping, and I feel guilty for letting down Xiaomai and Lin Qingping.

"Bottle, let me take it." Gu Youlian walked gently to her side and took the towel from Lin Qingping's hand. "You've worked hard today, you should go back and rest."

Her eyes were red, and she took a deep breath. "Pingzi, I...I will never forget the immense kindness you have shown to my daughter and me, I really will..."

"No need to talk about the future," Lin Qingping said. "Take good care of Xiaomai first. I won't stand on ceremony with you. I'll head back now. The hospital won't allow so many people to stay here."

Gu Youlian nodded.

Lin Qingping picked up her belongings, turned around, and saw Gu Juncheng standing at the door of the ward watching her.
