Hearing Yuexue’s real voice, Gu Siyu stopped in his tracks, turned around, and looked at Yuexue’s bright and intelligent face, lifting his hand to affectionately tousle her hair.
"What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"
"I just woke up and felt a bit dizzy."
"Come, let’s go inside, and Uncle will check on you." Gu Siyu took Yuexue inside, picked up a stethoscope, and carefully listened to Yuexue’s heart and lungs to make sure there were no problems before he lifted his head to look at Yuexue, only to find her bright eyes staring back at him.
"Why have you been staring at Uncle all day? Is there something dirty on my face, or did something get on it?" Gu Siyu put down the stethoscope and affectionately tousled Yuexue’s hair again.
"Uncle, earlier when you were talking with Mommy at the door, I already heard your conversation. Have you really liked my mommy since a long time ago?" Yuexue tilted her head as she looked at Gu Siyu, whose face could definitely make him a top-tier male superstar if he decided to debut, he was that handsome, and worthy of being her daddy.
Gu Siyu didn’t hide anything and openly admitted, "Yes, before I went abroad for my studies, I randomly encountered your mommy on the street and took her photo. I fell in love with her at first sight and haven’t forgotten her all these years."
"I see, in that case, I declare Uncle Gu, you now have the qualifications to pursue my mommy."
Hearing Yuexue’s words, Gu Siyu chuckled a little, stood up, and patted Yuexue’s little head as he finally understood.
"So when you said earlier that you were feeling unwell, were you joking with me? Don’t joke like that again, do you know how worried I was when you said you were feeling unwell?"
Yuexue lifted her head to look at Gu Siyu, "Don’t worry, Uncle, I won’t joke like that anymore. By the way, if you have other things to do, go ahead; I just wanted to tell you that you can now pursue my mommy."
"Yuexue, once you’ve fully recovered, I’ll go after your mommy. Her heart is filled only with thoughts of you right now, and if I pursued her at this time, it would only add a psychological burden to her. I don’t want to make her feel troubled."
Hearing Gu Siyu’s words, Yuexue raised her hand and gave him a thumbs up, "Okay."
After giving Yuexue some advice, Gu Siyu left her hospital room. Yuexue lay in bed, her bright eyes twinkling and rolling as she blinked – she was very satisfied with Gu Siyu, but at the moment, there were two other men constantly entangled with Shen Heyu.
One was her biological dad, Pei Yansi, and the other was Lu Yi, who had taken care of her for a long time.
Honestly speaking, Yuexue didn’t dislike Pei Yansi, and she was quite optimistic about Shen Heyu and Pei Yansi together. However, Shen Heyu’s attitude towards Pei Yansi was very firm, and Yuexue had to be on the same side as her mommy.
Therefore, even though she was quite satisfied with Pei Yansi, she had to give up on the line with Pei Yansi and Shen Heyu, especially since she overheard from the doorway today that her dad was about to marry another woman.
A man about to marry another woman, what right does he have to pursue her mom?
So Yuexue quietly eliminated Pei Yansi from her consideration in her heart. Another was Lu Yi. Initially, she didn’t truly like Lu Yi either that much—only that Lu Yi could take care of Shen Heyu.
But now that Shen Heyu and Lu Yi’s relationship had completely fallen apart, Yuexue no longer considered Lu Yi. Now, she favored Gu Siyu the most.
Just as she was thinking about Pei Yansi and Lu Yi, the two of them actually arrived at the hospital.
When both Lu Yi and Pei Yansi appeared at the doorway of Yuexue’s hospital room, after a moment of staring each other down, Pei Yansi was the first to speak, his tone filled with an explosive anger.
"What are you doing here? Yuexue is a patient now, she is inconvenient with seeing outsiders, let alone your marriage with Shen Heyu is already over. What right do you have to disturb her?"
Lu Yi’s face looked unpleasant, "Then what are you doing here? You’ve long been unrelated to Shen Heyu, and you’re about to marry Chen Lingmeng soon. You’re the last person who should be here."
"Okay, both of you stop arguing. Have you forgotten? This is a hospital. If there is something, better come in and talk about it." Yuexue heard the noise at the door, she got off the bed, stood behind it listening to their tit-for-tat words, and finally had no choice but to directly open the door to let them in, lest they embarrass themselves at her hospital room door.
Yuexue opened the door, letting both Pei Yansi and Lu Yi in. Pei Yansi saw Yuexue’s unhealthy complexion and frowned deeply.
"During the time you’ve been hospitalized, Shen Heyu didn’t take care of you here at all, just left you here all by yourself, without a care. Look at your pale face, what do you look like? I’m going to make a call right now to have a nutritionist come take care of you."
When Pei Yansi took out his phone to make a call, Lu Yi, aiming to make an impression in front of Yuexue and win Yuexue’s heart, also hastily took out his phone to make a call.
Yuexue stopped both of them, "Alright, both of you stop messing around. You came here today just to see if I’m still alive and kicking, right? I’m telling you I’m fine. If there’s nothing else, why don’t you leave?"
"Where is Shen Heyu? Why isn’t he by your side? No, I must assign someone to take care of you closely. After all, you are my daughter, and I absolutely won’t let anything happen to you."
Yuexue sighed softly, "Mommy has other things to take care of. If you’re really worried that I’m not eating well here, why don’t you personally come and let me see which one of you has better cooking skills, who is more suitable to take care and be with Mommy?"
"Does this mean that whoever has the better cooking skills has the right to stay by your side, Shen Heyu? Of course, it’s my cooking skills that are the best, after all, I’ve cooked for you for such a long time. Don’t you always like it?" Upon hearing Yuexue’s statement, Lu Yi’s eyes lit up, thinking he found an opportunity and excitedly spoke out.
Pei Yansi frowned, cooking wasn’t his strong point, and seeing a smug Lu Yi, he felt very annoyed inside.
"Only cooking, it’s not like we can’t hire a chef. As long as there is money, whatever type of food one wants can be prepared by a chef." Pei Yansi interrupted Lu Yi’s soliloquy.
"But food cooked by oneself can express one’s true feelings. Even if you have heaps of money, what does it matter? You still wouldn’t cook for Yuexue."
