95 Chapter 95 Discord
Cui ‘er, who was waiting outside the manor, saw his sorry state and hurriedly greeted him, “Doctor Gu, what’s wrong? Did you fall down?”
Gu Chengrui did not answer her. Instead, he asked in an unfriendly tone, “Your family’s young lady’s surname isn’t Liu, but Qiao, right?”
Cui ‘er was shocked when she heard this. She then laughed dryly and replied, “Who told you that? My young miss…”
Gu Chengrui snorted coldly when he saw her avoiding his gaze. Then, he walked straight into the manor.
Cui ‘er saw this and immediately chased after him, feeling uneasy. It seemed that the young lady’s identity had been revealed.
The two of them entered the main courtyard one after another. Miss Qiao happened to come out of the kitchen with a pot of iced pear juice.
When she saw Gu Chengrui enter, she quickly greeted him warmly, “Doctor Gu, you’re here. I’ve just made a pot of dessert for you to try.”
“Cui ‘er, go get a bowl,” she said to Cui ‘er.
After speaking, she called Gu Chengrui into the house with her.
As soon as the two sat down, Cui ‘er hurriedly followed them with a bowl in her hand. Seeing that the two of them were still politely talking, she heaved a sigh of relief and went forward to get some dessert.
Gu Chengrui placed the aloe vera cream on the table and looked at Miss Qiao. “Miss Liu, what’s your surname?”
Miss Qiao’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly looked at Cui ‘er, who was also stunned.
Cui ‘er immediately shook her head with a bitter face. She was still puzzled about this matter, and didn’t know who leaked it.
“My surname is Qiao. I was afraid…” Miss Qiao gritted her teeth.
“There’s no need to say anything. The ointment has been delivered, so please pay the medical expenses.
“As for your illness, it’s not really an illness. It’ll be fine if you pay attention to your diet and personal hygiene. I’ll be going back now.” Gu Chengrui said with a straight face after he got up.
When Miss Qiao heard his cold and emotionless words, her aggrieved eyes suddenly welled up with tears.
“The grudges of the previous generation are between them, and it has nothing to do with us…”
Without waiting for her to finish, Gu Chengrui raised his hand and interrupted her. He said sarcastically, “Who would believe your words? Didn’t you ask me to come here?
“But I didn’t expect that you would send someone to attack me on the way when I was kind enough to send you the medicine.”
“No, no, I…” Miss Qiao immediately started to explain in a panic.
However, Gu Chengrui had no intention of listening. Even after encountering that group of people today, he still risked coming here. To put it bluntly, he was clarifying his position and trying to sow discord between the father and daughter.
“That’s enough. You don’t have to explain anymore. Anyway, it’s impossible between us. We don’t have to meet again in the future. Pay up.”
“I…?”
“What, you even want to skimp out on the money for the medicine?”
“No, I…”
“Then hurry up.” Gu Chengrui said impatiently.
Cui ‘er took out a piece of silver from her purse and said, “That should be enough.”
Gu Chengrui took the silver, carried the medicine kit on his back, and walked out. The speed at which he left was as if a dog was chasing him.
Miss Qiao wanted to chase after him, but Cui ‘er immediately stopped her. “Please don’t chase him, Miss. You won’t be able to catch up.”
Miss Qiao immediately remembered that Cui ‘er had taken the initiative to pay. She turned her head and raised her hand to slap her. She roared, “Who told you to make the decision and give him the silver?”
Cui ‘er covered the half of her face that had been slapped and said aggrievedly, “Young miss, I’m doing this for your own good. Doctor Gu is obviously in a fit of anger. He won’t listen to anything you say, and it’s better to let him leave first.”
