Ji Gao and Jiang He, who had already left the Civil Affairs Bureau, did not know that a passerby had posted the scene of their divorce online, nor did they know that this matter would attract the ridicule of many netizens.
At this moment, Ji Gao had already driven to the hospital where Ji Lin was.
Ever since Ji Gao had confirmed from Old Master Ji that he would not be able to return to the Ji Group for the time being, he would come to the hospital where Ji Lin was every two to three days to visit Ji Lin and Du Li.
However, this time, when he arrived at Ji Lin’s ward with practiced ease, he did not see Du Li welcoming him.
In the ward, other than Ji Lin, who was lying on the bed, there was only a man he did not know at all.
He looked around the room, but he still didn’t see Du Li. As for the toilet, he didn’t hear any sounds coming from it.
While Ji Gao was looking for Du Li, the man in the room also noticed Ji Gao.
He observed Ji Gao for a while. After confirming that he was the person the employer had mentioned, he took a few steps forward and stopped not far away from Ji Gao.
“Hello, Mr. Ji. I’m a nurse hired by Miss Du. I’ll take care of Young Master Ji Lin from now on.”
Hearing the man’s words, Ji Gao retracted his gaze, which was still searching for Du Li, and suddenly looked at the man. His eyes subconsciously carried a hint of intimidation. “What did you just say?”
The man felt a violent aura coming from Ji Gao’s body and couldn’t help but take a step back. He muttered a few words in his heart but still answered Ji Gao’s question.
“Mr. Ji, I’m a nurse hired by Miss Du. I’ve been working for two days. Miss Du said that she would give me the salary for the first month and asked me to look for you for the salary after that.”
The nurse spoke under Ji Gao’s increasingly dangerous gaze, and his voice became softer and softer.
However, when he thought of his future salary, he still forced himself to finish his sentence. After saying that, he did not dare to look up at Ji Gao’s expression.
“Do you know where Du Li, who hired you, went?” Ji Gao asked coldly.
“I don’t know. Miss Du didn’t tell me. After I came to the hospital, 1 haven’t seen Miss Du since the first day.”
When Ji Gao received this reply, his expression became even darker.
However, when he looked at the trembling man in front of him with his head lowered, he knew that he could not vent his anger on others.
Besides… he didn’t see Du Li in the hospital. What if she hired a nurse because Du Li suddenly had something on and couldn’t come to the hospital to take care of Lin Lin?
Ji Gao lied to himself in his heart, but he still subconsciously knew that this matter was not so simple.
He waved at the nurse and asked him to leave the ward before walking to the bed and asking Ji Lin where Du Li had gone.
However, Ji Lin’s answer was the same as the caregiver’s. He had not seen Du Li for two days.
Ji Gao looked at Ji Lin, who was so thin on the bed that he no longer looked like a human. While his heart ached, there was also a trace of anger. However, even he himself did not know whom this anger was directed at.
“Dad, where, where did Mom go? Do, do you know?” While Ji Gao was deep in thought, Ji Lin asked with some effort.
Ji Gao came back to his senses and glanced at Ji Lin. His eyes flashed.
“Dad doesn’t know yet, but if he finds out, he will definitely tell Lin Lin, okay?”
Ji Lin nodded, then closed his eyes and continued to rest.
In the late stages of uremia, there was often a lack of strength. He could only lie on the bed and close his eyes to rest to feel better.
Ji Gao glanced at Ji Lin, turned around and left the ward.
He found a relatively remote corner and stopped. He took out his phone and dialed the number that he already knew by heart.
However, the call did not go through even after the ringtone ended.
Ji Gao’s hopes were completely dashed. His heart fell heavily to the ground, causing him to feel a wave of pain.
He gripped his phone tightly, a trace of anger and disbelief flashing in his eyes.
After taking his phone from his ear, he dialed the number again. If it didn’t work once, he would call a few more times. There would be a time when it would work.
Ji Gao comforted himself in his heart.
After countless calls, the person on the other end finally picked up..
