Gu Shaoting was quickly taken to the emergency room, where he received an injection and medication. His complexion improved slightly, and while his eyebrows were still furrowed, he no longer looked as pale as before.

During the time he was receiving an IV, Shu Pan was concerned and asked the doctor. They explained that his gastric ulcer had recurred, probably due to alcohol or spicy food stimulation. Although it wasn’t too severe and didn’t require surgery, he needed to stay in the hospital for observation.

Shu Pan couldn’t help but sigh. She guessed that he had been drinking too much recently. She had seen him intoxicated several times recently. She thought about saying something but ultimately decided against it. Considering their recent situation, she kept her concerned words to herself.

Hearing the doctor’s explanation, Shu Pan felt relieved. She looked at Gu Shaoting, who was now asleep on the bed. Although he still had a furrowed brow, he appeared less fragile than before. At that moment, he seemed vulnerable, like a child. His sickness had stripped away the cold and distant facade he usually wore. Shu Pan stood up, gathered the necessary documents, and went to complete the hospital admission procedures on his behalf.

When she returned, Gu Shaoting had regained consciousness in a dazed state. He glanced at Shu Pan, who was sitting beside him, then closed his eyes again, appearing confused.

Since she had left in a hurry, she hadn’t brought any daily necessities. She knew there was a supermarket near the hospital entrance, so while he was sleeping, she planned to buy some towels, a toothbrush, and a basin.

Before leaving the hospital, Shu Pan specifically asked the doctor about his condition. They advised him to take care of his stomach during this period, reduce alcohol consumption, and try to eat lighter foods, especially avoiding excessive drinking.

Worried that he might wake up hungry in the middle of the night, Shu Pan bought a bowl of congee for him.

In the middle of the night, Gu Shaoting did wake up, but due to thirst. Lying in the hospital bed, he hazily recognized that he was in a hospital, not at home. His throat felt incredibly dry. He reached out to grab the cup on the bedside table but found it out of reach.

Rolling slightly, he saw Shu Pan sleeping at the bedside, her hand resting on his leg. For some reason, a warm feeling flowed through his heart. Afraid of waking her, he moved as carefully as he could.

Although he was being cautious and his movements were slight, he still managed to wake the lightly sleeping Shu Pan. Seeing him awake, she hurriedly asked, “Are you awake? Are you still feeling uncomfortable? Is your stomach still hurting? Are you hungry? Would you like some congee?”

As she spoke, she reached out and touched the package of congee, which was still slightly warm.

Gu Shaoting looked at her, shook his head slightly, and realized that she had been startled by him yesterday. He wanted to reassure her that he was fine now, but when he tried to speak, he found his voice stuck in his throat. “I’m fine,” he managed to rasp out, his voice hoarse and dry.

Seeing this, Shu Pan quickly poured a glass of water and handed it to him. Half-supporting him, she held the cup and helped him drink.

Gu Shaoting practically downed half the glass of water in one breath. His parched throat finally felt a bit relieved.

Shu Pan placed the blanket back on the cabinet beside the bed and then asked him, “Are you hungry? I bought some congee just now, and it’s still a bit warm.”

Gu Shaoting shook his head. He had no appetite at the moment. Lying on the bed, he was drowsy and closed his eyes again.

Images of Shu Pan bustling around kept flashing in his mind. The way she had taken care of him and shown concern for his illness made him feel something unusual in his heart, especially considering the way he had been treating her
