C257 He Won't Let Them Go Easily
Gu Chen still maintained his refined smile, but his eyes suddenly darkened. He understood what the director meant, and began to take off his white robe. He also took down the certificate hanging on his left chest and handed it to the director. "Is this okay? "
The director quickly took the document from his hand and said to him, "You can go and settle the payment later. I'm really sorry, I..."
" No need to apologize, I understand. " His tone became cold, and even his elegant smile became distant and indifferent. This time, he really turned around and left with big strides.
The director seemed to have a lot to say, but he suppressed it in his heart. Looking at Gu Chen's back as he left, he shook his head and sighed. Their hospital did not want to dismiss such an excellent doctor, but there was nothing they could do. Their hospital was under pressure from the higher-ups. The other party had pointed out Dr. Gu's name and wanted to expel him. Otherwise, their hospital would not need to operate.
Who in City J would dare to threaten their city hospital with such a big tone? He didn't need to think to figure it out.
He just didn't understand why Gu Chen offended such a big figure. Oh right, was it because of that Ji Nian?
At the corner of the corridor, Gu Chen did not even look at the letter of resignation. He tore the letter into pieces along with the envelope and threw it into the trash bin.
His expression was calm and no emotions could be seen. He only slowly clenched his hands in his pocket.
At the door of the sick ward, Gu Chen took a deep breath and adjusted his mood. He smiled and pushed the door open. It was exactly as he had expected. The food in Ji Nian's hands was cold, but she still did not eat much.
He sighed helplessly and did not blame her for eating too little. He bent down and said to her normally, "Nian Nian, I will help you with the discharge procedures later. Can you stay at my place for the time being?"
Ji Nian's eyes were still blank, as if she habitually nodded. "Okay."
Other than not eating seriously, she was very obedient. She would say whatever you said.
And there was really nothing in her eyes. They all said that the eyes were the windows to the heart. She had already closed her heart, so what else could she see?
If she had the heart, she would have found out that he was no longer wearing his white robe, but she did not say anything.
Gu Chen quickly helped Ji Nian settle the discharge procedures and brought her back to his residence to settle down. Everything was said that Gu Chen had handled everything by himself. Ji Nian was like an outsider, she would do whatever he said.
It was only when she realized that Gu Chen was not as busy as before that she was slightly suspicious. She thought that he deliberately took a leave of absence to accompany her at home, so she asked him, "Gu Chen, why haven't you gone to work recently?"
Gu Chen was facing the computer and working. His eyes flashed, and then he smiled and said, "I'm on vacation now."
Ji Nian did not believe him. "You wouldn't take a leave of absence to accompany me, would you? I'm much better now. You don't have to worry about me. I'll go to work after resting for a while."
Gu Chen frowned. "Why are you still working? Your body can't go to work anymore. Before finding the heart transplant, you have to rest at home. " His expression was unusually serious.
Ji Nian was silent. This made Gu Chen feel that his words were serious. He quickly softened his voice and said, "Nian Nian, listen to me..."
"Gu Chen, it is not far from May now. It will be June after May. This year will be half a year. Tell me, how long is one year? A heart that can be transplanted? Ha, don't waste too much effort. You have been looking for Xiangxiang for so many years, but you have not found a suitable one. I don't have a year's time now. Let's not waste anymore time, alright? "
Ji Nian thought that the next time she met Ye Meihui, she would also advise her not to waste manpower to search. This was a method to find a needle in a haystack.
Gu Chen's eyes darkened and his expression became serious again. "Nian, your idea is very wrong. You..."
His words were suddenly interrupted by the ringtone and he looked at the call. He frowned, picked up the phone, and got up to go to the balcony. When he stood up, he pointed at Ji Nian. "You sit here. I will tell you when I answer the phone." Then, he strode towards the balcony.
Ji Nian did not pay too much attention to him. She inadvertently glanced at the computer he placed on the coffee table. She suddenly seemed to be under a spell and got up to sit where he had just sat. The light on the computer screen had yet to go out. On it was Gu Chen's resume for the job.
She did not understand. Was Gu Chen looking for a job now? Did he quit his job at the city hospital?
His voice could be heard faintly from the balcony. She did not want to eavesdrop. She only felt that there was something strange about the matter, so she could not help but walk towards the balcony.
On the balcony, Gu Chen was talking to the person on the other side of the phone.... "Really?"
Gu Chen did not know what the person on the other side said. His mood fluctuated. "Alright, I know you are in a difficult position. You are just afraid of his power. Their family was the biggest in City J. No one dared to offend him, right? I am the one who offended him. You rejected me because you were afraid of him. I won't blame you."
Ji Nian furrowed her brows. She could tell that Gu Chen was in trouble. He was also a very powerful man, the most powerful man in City J...
She panicked and didn't dare to continue thinking about it.2
Gu Chen hung up the phone angrily. He clenched the phone in his hand and cursed under his breath.
"You lost your job?" The woman's overly calm voice sounded from behind. Gu Chen was shocked and turned his eyes to look at her.
Something flashed in Gu Chen's eyes very quickly. He quickly smiled and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"If not, why don't you go to work?" Ji Nian looked straight at him without blinking. She did not allow him to say any lies.
Gu Chen was still pretending. "Didn't I tell you that I am on vacation now?"
"Why would I take such a long time on vacation? It's the end of April now. Did you pass 51 earlier? "
"I took the annual vacation."
"Then what did you apply for? Don't you have a job?" Ji Nian choked back.
This time Gu Chen had nothing to say. He stopped smiling and looked at her. "You saw it?"
"Now can you tell me what happened? What did you just say about the biggest power? Who are you talking about? Who's oppressing you? " She didn't beat around the bush and directly asked.
Gu Chen was really silent this time. He was silent for a long time until Ji Nian thought he would not answer. After a long while, he slowly said, "Nian Nian, this is my matter. You don't have to worry about it."
"It's him, right? He put pressure on you and made you lose your job, right?" It was probably not just that. Now, no hospital would dare to recruit Gu Chen.
She was not stupid. She would never have thought that Mu Tingye was a businessman who weighed the pros and cons very clearly. He would not let them off so easily.
Ji Nian looked at Gu Chen in an unusually calm manner. In a moment, she did not say anything. She just turned around abruptly. Her footsteps were a little fast, as if she was in a hurry to do something.
Gu Chen was shocked. He was stunned for a few seconds before he caught up to her and grabbed her arm. He pulled her to a stop and looked at her with a serious expression. "What do you want to do?"
Ji Nian did not look at him. Her tone was calm. "I will go and find him."
