Zhou Yunxi kept calling out Gu Bo's name. Her crying and laughing expressions frightened the doctors and nurses. She had finally gone mad!
"What's wrong with her?"
Gu Ruochu was stunned when she saw that Zhou Yunxi had completely broken down. She could not figure out what had happened. The news that Gu Yanwei was not her daughter seemed to have driven Zhou Yunxi out of her mind.
"We'll ask her again when she's recovered."
Huo Nanchen put his arm around her shoulder. "Let's go sit in the waiting area. You look tired."
"Okay."
Gu Ruochu leaned against his shoulder and sat for a while. She did not stand up until the doctor came out. "Doctor, what is her condition?"
"Madam Zhou's mental state is not good. I think we should run more mental tests on her. Her current condition is not very optimistic."
Gu Ruochu nodded, "Can I go in and take a look?"
The doctor hesitated before answering, "It's best not to let the patient receive too much stimulation. I would suggest that Madam Huo doesn't come into contact with her. At the moment, it seems that she might have a sudden mental illness because of the psychological stimulation. As soon as someone comes near her, she will go insane."
Gu Ruochu's heart sank. Zhou Yunxi's mental instability was the last thing she had expected.
"By the way, Mrs. Zhou keeps calling out Gu Bo's name. Is Gu Bo a relative of hers? If this person is around, it might be of some help to Mrs. Zhou's illness."
"Gu Bo?
"He's Ms. Zhou's ex-husband. He disappeared a long time ago when he ran away to avoid paying his gambling debts."
"Then there's nothing we can do." The doctor's tone was apologetic as he pushed up his glasses. "I have other patients to attend to. If there's anything you need, you can call me at any time."
"All right. Thank you Doctor."
Gu Ruochu watched as the doctor left. She did not understand why Zhou Yunxi was suddenly obsessed with Gu Bo. In the past, she had rarely heard Zhou Yunxi mention his name. On the few occasions that she did, she would grit her teeth bitterly.
"You should let Gu Yanwei go. Otherwise, the Ning family will come knocking on our door again."
"Mmm."
Gu Ruochu looked dejected. Huo Nanchen knew that she was sad because she had lost her only lead to finding her biological parents. "Leave the matter to me. We will eventually find your parents. Zhou Yunxi mentioned Gu Bo today. Perhaps he is the key to unlocking your identity."
"Gu Bo disappeared a long time ago. How could we possibly find him?" Gu Ruochu shook her head. "Actually, I don't want to know who my biological parents are. I'm not the daughter of a rapist. No one will dare to insult me with that title again. It doesn't matter who my parents are anymore. Let's just leave that to fate."
"Yes. It's enough as long as you have me." Huo Nanchen reached out and caressed her head and gently kissed her hair.
Gu Ruochu's heart skipped a beat. She felt lost. Every time she thought she was close to discovering something life-changing, she would fall short repeatedly.
"Let's go home."
As soon as she said the three words, Huo Nanchen leaned over and picked her up.
"All right."
Nanny Zhang saw that the couple was much closer to each other than when they left the Huo residence the last time.
"Nanny Zhang, my wife has just returned from her trip. She hasn't eaten, but don't worry about her."
Huo Nanchen nodded and turned to look at Gu Ruochu. "Do you want to eat first?"
Gu Ruochu was puzzled by the question. What did he mean? Had he planned on them having other things to do?
