After breakfast, Tan Jincheng still had to go to the company and dropped Gu Yi’an back at her apartment on the way to pack her things.
The luxuriously ostentatious Maybach smoothly stopped at the entrance of Gu Yi’an’s apartment complex, turning heads without fail!
“Sir, Madam, we’re here,” the driver said naturally.
The word “Madam” left Gu Yi’an a bit flustered.
“Are you meeting your friend for lunch?” Tan Jincheng turned to look at her.
Gu Yi’an nodded, “Not necessarily, her job is quite unique, she might not be free.”
“Just pack the essentials, I’ll come to pick you up this afternoon.”
“No, I’ll just take a cab myself,” Gu Yi’an declined.
“Five o’clock in the afternoon, I’ll come to pick you up,” Tan Jincheng set the time without further discussion.
Gu Yi’an stayed silent, unsure whether to continue refusing or to accept.
Suddenly, Tan Jincheng smiled, “Want me to walk you up?”
Gu Yi’an was stunned, then immediately remembered she was still sitting in the car.
Her pretty face turned slightly red.
She quickly opened the car door and got out.
“I’ll head up first, be careful on the road.”
Tan Jincheng nodded, and Gu Yi’an turned to leave.
After taking only a couple of steps, Tan Jincheng’s melodious voice called out, “Yi’an.”
Gu Yi’an stopped and turned to look at Tan Jincheng.
At that moment, Tan Jincheng swiftly walked over to her.
Before she could react, he wrapped one arm around her waist, placed a hand on the back of her head, and kissed her lips.
When his soft, cool lips pressed against hers, Gu Yi’an blinked and instantly realized what was happening.
Her face immediately flushed, feeling as if countless eyes were staring at her, leaving her nowhere to hide.
Before she could push Tan Jincheng away, he had already let go of her, with a slight smile in his eyes, “A work kiss.”
Gu Yi’an glared at him, “I’m not going to work today.”
“I’m going to work, so you have to kiss me too.” Tan Jincheng grinned broadly.
Gu Yi’an was speechless.
Was Tan Jincheng trying to act cute with her?
She quickly said goodbye and ran off.
This was right at the entrance of the apartment complex, and everyone coming and going had seen Tan Jincheng kiss her.
Tan Jincheng, coupled with the eye-catching Maybach, made her feel like she was about to become the talk of the neighborhood!
Sure enough, as she passed by the security booth, the old guard Uncle Wang, who she was very familiar with, smiled and said, “Doctor Gu, is that your boyfriend?
He doesn’t seem ordinary.”
Gu Yi’an smiled and quickly went inside without saying anything.
Back in her apartment, Gu Yi’an finally heaved a sigh of relief.
It felt as if she had just woken up from a dream.
She slowly recalled the dream and concluded that it had felt completely unreal.
Was the rumored all-powerful Young Emperor Tan Jincheng really the gentle, homey man?
He could even cook!
He even ate her leftovers!
He even acted cute with her?!
“Ah!” Gu Yi’an grabbed her hair, nearly going crazy.
If Tan Jincheng had coldly drawn a line with her, treating her indifferently, she would have found it normal and nothing surprising.
But Tan Jincheng seemed serious about living life with her, even talking about falling in love with her!
Gu Yi’an really wanted to ask, “Young Master Tan, did you forget to take your medication?”
After rolling around on the bed for a while, Gu Yi’an finally got up to start packing.
She didn’t have many clothes; since she wore a lab coat at work, a simple T-shirt and pants combo would suffice, with a few skirts for good measure, though she hadn’t worn them in a long time.
Apart from her books and notes, there wasn’t much else to pack.
Carefully putting the thick professional books into the box one by one, along with the notes, some of which were dusty, she shook them out and saw a piece of paper drift out from one of the notebooks.
Gu Yi’an picked up the notepaper.
On it were four beautiful words written in pen: Quiet and Peaceful.
For a moment, she stopped breathing.
Gu Yi’an threw the paper into the nearby trash can, but it felt like her feet were rooted to the spot, unable to move.
Eventually, she picked up that piece of paper, tucked it back into the notebook, and pressed it into the bottom of the box.
By the time she finished packing the books, two hours had passed.
Gu Yi’an intended to pack some other small items, like her anatomical dolls, when suddenly her phone rang.
After answering the call, Gu Yi’an’s face turned serious.
She dared not delay and immediately rushed out.
She hailed a cab from outside the apartment complex and arrived at the hospital emergency room door, where several ambulances were bustling in and out.
“Doctor Gu, you finally arrived.
There’s been a multiple-vehicle collision on the nearby highway, with many people injured.
The director took Doctor Cheng and Doctor Liu to the scene for rescue efforts, and other departments have been urgently mobilized, but there was a large bus involved, so there are too many injured…” Xiao Wei immediately explained the situation as she saw Gu Yi’an.
Gu Yi’an had already changed into her white coat and donned her stethoscope.
“I understand.
Start with preliminary checks on the patients and triage…”
The accident was severe, with one patient after another arriving from the initial on-site rescue.
Gu Yi’an could not afford to slack off for even a moment.
“Doctor Gu, your phone has been ringing constantly,” Xiao Wei said with some difficulty.
Gu Yi’an didn’t even look at her, “Answer it for me, tell them I’m busy today, and then turn off the phone.”
“Okay.”
Lives were at stake, and Gu Yi’an couldn’t afford a single moment of laxity.
The rescue continued from ten in the morning until five in the afternoon!
During this period, Gu Yi’an had only a few bottles of mineral water and ate a chocolate bar.
Finally, the rescue was completed.
Patients who needed to be transferred were transferred, and the admitted ones were settled in the inpatient department.
The emergency room was finally no longer bustling for the moment.
Gu Yi’an was utterly exhausted.
She hadn’t experienced such high-intensity emergency care in a long time.
Although tired, her excitement had been stirred, and while her body was exhausted, her mind was still buzzing.
Just as she was about to clock off and head out, Xiao Wei ran in again.
“Doctor Gu, there’s another case outside.”
Gu Yi’an nodded, put on her white coat, and went out.
As she stepped out, she saw two policemen, one of whom was holding a young girl in his arms with her eyes closed, expressionless as if she were unconscious.
The other policeman had a handcuffed young man who looked anxious and helpless.
Gu Yi’an approached them, “Hello, what seems to be the problem?”
The policeman holding the girl immediately said, “Doctor, we received a report from the public about someone using anesthesia to rob people.
Could you please check if this girl has been drugged?”
