Chapter 964: We’re All Family
Editor: Henyee Translations
In the Xiao family’s banquet hall.
Because Ning Shen exposed Gu Jin’s identity as the Godly Doctor, many people flocked to the banquet to befriend her and seek treatment.
Xiao Yize stayed by her side and helped fend off numerous people.
When Gu Zhaoming and Ruan Xueling learned about Gu Jin’s exposed identity, they were not pleased with the increasing attention. Their main concern was Gu Jin’s safety.
Ruan Xueling, with an angry expression, grasped Gu Jin’s hand and said, “Young Master Ning is clearly trying to stir up trouble for Jin.”
Gu Zhaoming’s face grew serious. “Jin, do you want me to assign more bodyguards to you?”
Gu Jin shook her head. “No, you all should have a few more bodyguards.”
Gu Zhaoming, considering Gu Jin’s skills, fell silent. He realized her point was reasonable.
In reality, Gu Jin wasn’t as worried about the danger her identity might bring to her directly. Her main concern was the potential trouble and the risk that those unable to receive treatment from her might target those around her.
Especially when it came to her sister.
Now that Gu Yang’s hemophilia had been cured and her hypnosis skills had improved, allowing her to even challenge the second elder of the Utopia Organization, Singer, Gu Jin didn’t have to worry as much about her.
Her main concerns were Gu Zhaoming, Ruan Xueling, and Gu Pei.
In the past, Gu Jin had never imagined she would form such a deep connection with her biological family or include them in her protection. But now, things had changed.
Xiao Yize proactively offered, “Uncle Gu, Auntie Ruan, if you need help with arranging bodyguards, I can assist.”
Gu Zhaoming had initially planned to hire bodyguards himself. Despite the close relationship between the Gu and Xiao families, he didn’t want to burden the Xiaos with everything.
But Gu Jin said, “Use the bodyguards Xiao Yize introduced.”
“Alright.” Gu Zhaoming agreed, recognizing that Gu Jin’s serious attitude indicated that the situation was more complex than he had thought. These bodyguards were not ordinary.
Xiao Yize’s team had indeed arranged for Mutants, not just regular bodyguards.
The Mutant Department had many members. While the core members were often busy, there were also some Mutants who had more free time and worked part-time. Some even went to construction sites to move bricks due to their strength.
Assigning bodyguards for Gu Zhaoming, Ruan Xueling, and the others provided a part-time opportunity for these department members. It not only allowed them to earn extra money but also helped please Xiao Yize’s future in-laws—benefiting everyone involved.
Ruan Xueling grew increasingly satisfied with Xiao Yize. “Thank you, Xiao.”
Xiao Yize smiled and took Gu Jin’s hand. “We’re family.”
When Gu Yang returned, Gu Jin and Xiao Yize went to find her.
Gu Zhao’an, Gu Zhaoye, and the others observed with envy as the influential figures around them engaged with Gu Zhaoming and his wife.
Gu Zhaoye’s jealousy turned into a reflection on the money he had lost. “Brother, I never expected Niece Gu Jin to be the Godly Doctor. Considering the 200 million yuan she used to treat Old Master…”
Gu Zhaoming was stunned. He had been so focused on socializing and worrying about Gu Jin’s situation that he had forgotten about this detail.
After Gu Zhaoye’s reminder, Gu Zhao’an also became sarcastic. “Brother, you’re mistaken. The Godly Doctor is Gu Jin. Of course, she would save Grandpa. How could she accept money?”
Gu Zhaoming’s expression remained unchanged. He didn’t seem fazed by the exposure. “That’s true, but there are no formal rules against it. Just like this hospital, there’s no expectation that the surgery would be free just because we’re family.”
