Destined with You

Ye Qi dropped Gu Qingxin off at the hospital. This time he didn’t leave hastily. His gaze lingered on her retreating figure until she was out of sight. Only then did he start the car and leave.

Gu Qingxin had a chat with her mother’s chief physician and found out that her mother was recovering well. Within a week, her mother would be able to speak normally again.

In the morning, while her mother was asleep, she went to the billing department, requesting them to print out all the expenses incurred by her mother during this period. This money, she definitely had to repay it to Beiming Han.

According to the contract she had signed with him, as long as she repaid all the money, he would let her off.

Gu Qingxin had to wait nearly half an hour for the bill to be fully printed out. Holding a thick stack of bills, she returned to the ward.

Sitting beside her mother’s bed, Gu Qingxin began to check the items listed on the bill. From the surgery fee and anesthetist fees to minor items such as needles and cotton swabs, everything was clearly itemized.

After a brief glance, Gu Qingxin’s eyes landed on the total amount at the bottom, which amounted to 1,243,564 until the morning of today.

Looking at her mother’s current situation, she would probably need to stay in the hospital for at least another month. Considering the current costs, 1.5 million should be enough.

1.5 million might be a trivial amount for the Gu family, but for her, it was an astronomical figure.

“Qingxin…” Lin Yin woke up. Seeing her daughter’s worried expression, tears welled up in her eyes.

Gu Qingxin quickly put the bill aside. Seeing her mother’s distressed look, she stood up and held her hand, “Mom, why are you crying? Be good and don’t cry.”

“I’m sorry.” Lin Yin stared at her daughter, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Gu Qingxin swiftly took a tissue to wipe her mother’s tears, unable to hold back her own, “Mother, what are you talking about? You don’t owe me anything, if anything, I’m the one who owes you! Can you please stop crying?”

Lin Yin lifted her head, gently wiped away the tears on her daughter’s face, and forced a smile, “I won’t cry.”

Gu Qingxin took her mother’s hand and held it against her face. Seeing her mother’s improving condition comforted her greatly. As long as her mother recovered, any sacrifice she made would be worth it.

After feeding her mother lunch, Gu Qingxin’s mobile phone suddenly rang. She wondered who would be calling her at this time. She picked up her phone to check the caller ID and saw it was an unknown number.

Her current phone was bought by Beiming Han just yesterday. As such, she had no contacts saved yet, and no one should have known her number.

“Mom, I’m going to go take a call.” Gu Qingxin stood up and left the ward.

“Hello?”

Gu Qingxin’s fingertip slid across the screen to answer the call.

“Why did it take you so long to answer?”

The sound of Beiming Han’s discontented voice came from the other end.

Gu Qingxin was silent.

Beiming Han was actually calling her?

After a two-second pause, she only then responded, “I was just feeding my mom.”

Obviously, the young master was not satisfied with the speed of her response, “Didn’t you hire a carer? Why are you still feeding her?”

“The carer is the carer, and I am my mother’s daughter. Since I’m here, it’s my duty as a daughter to take care of her.” Gu Qingxin patiently explained.

Beiming Han was silent for a few seconds. Gu Qingxin had no idea what was going on with him and was on tenterhooks in case she had said something wrong to anger him.

“Come down now!” After Beiming Han finished speaking, he immediately hung up.

Gu Qingxin was at a loss for words..
