322: Not One to Stand on Ceremony

Not One to Stand on Ceremony

Gu Zi heaved a sigh of relief. "That's good."1

As soon as she finished speaking, someone pushed the door open and entered.

Guan Chiyue and Chen Xingqian walked in and spotted Lu Ning.

"Ning'ning."

Lu Ning turned around and saw the two of them.

"What's wrong? Are you injured?"

The two of them walked over and shook their heads. "No, I just wanted Dr. Gu to take a look and see if my wounds are fully healed."

They sat close to Lu Ning. "I'm sorry, Ning'ning. We had something on yesterday and couldn't go."

Lu Ning smiled. "Don't worry about it."

The two of them heaved a sigh of relief when they saw that Lu Ning really was not too bothered.

Chen Xingqian looked at Gu Zi. "Dr. Gu, what are you doing?"

Gu Zi looked up at her. "Nothing much, just examining something."

Then, he put away the thing in his hand.

Guan Chiyue's phone rang twice. She took it out and had a look. Then, her expression changed.

Chen Xingqian also received the same message. The two of them looked up from their phone screens and turned to look at Lu Ning.

They were a little hesitant to speak up.

Lu Ning felt their gazes and turned to look at them.

"What's wrong?"

The two of them hesitated for a moment. "No, it's nothing."

"Where did Dr. Gu go?"

She changed the topic and asked.

"He's at the back looking at a patient. He should be here soon."

They both nodded.

Gu Zi stood up and glanced at the two of them. "Have you two eaten?"

Both of them shook their heads.

Gu Zi walked out and returned after a while with two big bags in his hands.

He placed it on the table in front of the sofa and looked at the three girls. "You girls eat first."

He bent down and emptied the contents of a bag. After preparing one of them, he placed it in front of Lu Ning. "Baby, for you."

Then, he stood up. "You guys eat first. I'll go to the back and see what's holding him up."

The two of them looked at Lu Ning.

Lu Ning put down her phone and looked at the two of them. "Don't mind it, let's dig in."

The two of them watched as Lu Ning took her own share before they reached for theirs from the table.

As soon as they picked it up, someone walked out from the back.

Gu Chen and Gu Zi, followed by a third person.

When they saw who it was, the two of them were so frightened that they almost dropped the food in their hands.

They shot up immediately. "Teach–! Teacher Huo!"

Huo Jinyan looked up at the two of them and nodded.

Lu Ning looked at the two of them and could not help but laugh.

She raised her hands and tugged at them. "Sit down. He's not even teaching your class, what are you afraid of?"

The two of them looked at each other and eventually sat down silently.

Huo Jinyan's oppressive aura was enough to make you feel suffocated simply by looking at him. It had nothing to do with whether he was their teacher or not.

Anyone who had seen Huo Jinyan once would never forget him. Apart from his looks, there was also his aura.

Huo Jinyan could not help but smile when he saw Lu Ning's expression.

"Want to eat together?"

Gu Chen looked at Huo Jinyan and asked.

Gu Zi suddenly turned to look at Gu Chen. "Surely it's not good enough, Teacher Huo…"

Before he could finish, Huo Jinyan said, "Sure."

Gu Zi: "… You sure aren't one to stand on ceremony."

Seeing Huo Jinyan walk over, Guan Chiyue and Chen Xingqian became even more nervous and stood up again.

"Teacher Huo, please, you can sit here."

The two of them moved away silently.

Lu Ning looked at the two of them. "Then where will you two sit?"

The two of them looked at Gu Chen. "Dr. Gu, please take a look at our wounds and see if they're healed."

Gu Chen looked at the two of them. "It's much better, but you still have to remember to use the medicine."

"Okay. Then, we'll get going first. Goodbye, Dr. Gu. See you again, Ning'ning."

With that, they ran off, bowls of food in hand.
