Chereads / My Sweet Dr. Xu / Chapter 34 - Pick Her Up Personally

Chapter 34 - Pick Her Up Personally

Xu Zhiyin saw the scene and was stunned. What was all the ruckus in the middle of the night?

 

"Dr. Xu, Master asked me to come and bring you home." Qiao came down from the first car and walked toward Xu Zhiyin.

 

So, these people were sent by Gu Nantian?

 

"What does Mr. Gu want?" The ostentation had scared Xu Zhiyin.

 

Although it was late at night, it didn't mean nobody wouldn't notice.

 

Qiao was sincere, "It has been a day. Dr. Xu, I believe you're not angry anymore? Mr. Gu asked me to bring you home."

 

 "I said, I won't work for Gu Nantian anymore." Xu Zhiyin was not angry but she felt she and Gu Nantian were not the same type of people.

 

 "Dr. Xu had signed a contract. You're an adult and should understand that before Mr. Gu regains his memory, if you were to leave, you'll lose your job and may never be able to be a doctor in future."

 

 "…" Xu Zhiyin was silent. She knew Qiao was not threatening her.

 

If she really abandoned Gu Nantian, the director wouldn't want her to go back and other hospitals would not accept a doctor who had breached a contract.

 

Qiao saw that Xu Zhiyin was silent and immediately added, "Master knows you're angry about this morning's incident, so he gave you the whole day to calm down. Now, you've cooled down, haven't you?"

 

 "I'm not angry with him. Mr. Gu is only my patient and my employer. I left, not because I was throwing a tantrum but I felt that we belonged in different worlds. Qiao, you've followed Mr. Gu for many years and I'm sure that you are clear about this. With his character, if he hadn't lost his memory, would he be someone who an ordinary person like me could be in touch with?"

 

An ordinary person would not take lives lightly.

 

Gu Nantian was obviously different from others.

 

Xu Zhiyin had heard of many rumors about him. In any case, this man was terrifying.

 

Qiao's attitude remained warm. "In Mr. Gu's eyes, Dr. Xu is like the second Miss Gu. He won't hurt you. You don't have to worry. As for what happens after he regains his memory, you and Mr. Gu would be living in separate worlds."

 

 "But, I…"

 

 "Dr. Xu, Master invites you home!" Not waiting for Xu Zhiyin to finish talking, Qiao took a step back and made way for Xu Zhiyin.

 

Qiao always puts on a smiling facade, no matter what the time was.

 

Because of this, Xu Zhiyin felt that his boss, Gu Nantian, was someone beyond imagination and not the current Gu Nantian who appeared in front of her eyes these few days.

 

Xu Zhiyin was hesitating when the whole group of bodyguards in black came down from the car.

 

It was raining heavily but they did not hold an umbrella. They formed one row and stood beside their car, facing Xu Zhiyin while saying loudly.

 

 "Master invites Miss Xu home!"

 

 "Master invites Miss Xu home!"

 

 "Master invites Miss Xu home!"

 

 "…"

 

In the middle of the night, such calls were uniform, even the sound of rain could not block their voice.

 

Xu Zhiyin had never faced such a scene before and looked at Qiao awkwardly. "Qiao, you're putting me in an awkward position."

 

 "It looks like Miss Xu thinks we are not sincere enough, right?" Qiao smiled and walked to the car and opened the umbrella. Very quickly, she saw a pair of feet in leather shoes stepped out of the car.

 

Following that was the whole body…

 

There stood Gu Nantian in a tidy suit.

 

She thought he didn't come but he had come personally!

 

With the outer coat draped over his shoulders, he was under the umbrella which Qiao was holding for him carefully, preventing him from getting wet.

 

He stretched out his hand to take over the umbrella from Qiao. Then, he walked toward Xu Zhiyin. With his warm voice, he said, "Darling, I'm here to bring you home."

 

Gu Nantian's voice was enchanting and he had a calm smile on his face…

 

He was so near, yet so far.

 

Xu Zhiyin felt she was an ordinary girl. Although she thought she was no longer a little girl, when she saw this scene, she was still touched and nervous.

 

These people were still calling.

 

 "Master invites Miss Xu home!" Their voice kept coming.

 

Even though it was raining heavily, there were still cars slowing down to watch the scene.

 

Xu Zhiyin supported her forehead with her hand. Her head was extremely painful. "Please ask your bodyguards to leave. Can you please not bother me anymore?"

 

Even if what Qiao said was true that she couldn't terminate their cooperation, she could take two days of rest, couldn't she?

 

Anyway, she didn't want to be in touch with Gu Nantian at the moment.

 

She was afraid of this man!

 

Gu Nantian asked, "Will you go home with me?"

 

 "I won't go back." Xu Zhiyin said, "I wish to take two days of rest and not work. Can I?"

 

Gu Nantian knew this was an excuse she found for herself and did not give her any chance, "You don't have to work these two days but you have to follow me back."

 

Xu Zhiyin knew her excuse was useless and was a little anxious, "We are merely employer and employee. Whatever I want to do, I have my freedom to do so. You don't have the right to control me."

 

Gu Nantian laughed. He walked closer to her. "When you're at work, you are my Dr. Xu but when you're off work, you're my wife. No matter when, I have the right to control you."

 

 "When did I become your wife?" Xu Zhiyin thought he was being unreasonable, "I'm not related to you. How many times do I have to repeat for you to understand? Do you know when you can call me your wife? It's only when we register for marriage and when it's recognized legally that I could be your wife."

 

 "Really?" Gu Nantian stared at Xu Zhiyin and showed his faint smile. "If that's the case, why do you still think of Mr. Ji since both of you have legally divorced?"

 

 "When did I think of him?" Xu Zhiyin denied guiltily.

 

She felt gloomy and regretted mentioning about Ji Liunian in front of him previously.

 

 "You still call his name when you're asleep!" Gu Nantian had not only once slept with her on the same bed and so he knew about her little secret.

 

Xu Zhiyin frowned. "You're too much!"

 

 "If you would be my wife only if it's legally recognized, I don't mind going for registration of marriage with you tomorrow." He said in a manner as if this was a trifling matter.

 

Was getting married such an easy thing?

 

Xu Zhiyin looked at Qiao. "Don't you want to advise him?"

 

Qiao beamed. "I'll fully support Master on things he likes to do."

 

 "…surely you jest!" Xu Zhiyin knew Gu Nantian's marriage would be a discreet matter.

 

After all, the woman whom he married had the right to enjoy all his wealth.

 

Gu Nantian replied, "This was my most serious decision. I'm not jesting."
