Chapter 88: It’s Delicious, Try It
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When they left the old house, Meng Nianyao’s arms were full of snacks that Grandma Gu had given her. She sighed as she ate. “Gu Wencheng, Grandma is really good. I don’t know how to repay her.”
Gu Wencheng glanced at her and then turned his gaze back to the road. “It’s good to spend more time with them. I’m old. I just want to have more fun at home.”
“Alright. “Meng Nianyao opened a box of biscuits, took a bite, and handed it to Gu Wencheng. “It’s delicious. Try it.”
Gu Wencheng looked at the biscuit with teeth marks on it and bit into it.
“Is it delicious?” Meng Nianyao smiled at him.
Gu Wencheng chewed twice and swallowed the sweet biscuit.
Meng Nianyao had been busy ever since she arrived at the company. She looked up a lot of information, but she didn’t have any inspiration. City B was an international metropolis. Everything was at the forefront, and its cultural heritage was very deep; naturally, after so many years of development, many landmarks had appeared in the city. It was difficult to create an innovative and representative landmark now.
Meng Nianyao spent the entire day researching and reading up on history. She flipped and turned the pages, and the table was filled with papers. However, she still didn’t have any leads. In addition, her head and eyes hurt, and so had her stomach. It was almost time to get off work, so Meng Nianyao packed her things and prepared to leave.
Fu Yi’s sidekick saw this and deliberately said loudly, “Aiyo, let me tell you. Some people overestimate themselves and want to show off, but it’s already been two days and they haven’t done anything. Don’t you think it’s funny?” The group of people laughed.
Meng Nianyao sneered. Just as she was about to retort, she saw Ping Yang walking over to her desk. “Assistant Meng, the boss is looking for you.”
In the Gu Corporation, Ping Yang was Gu Wencheng’s external representative. Seeing how Ping Yang was so friendly to Meng Nianyao, those people did not dare to make a sound.
Meng Nianyao stood up and swept her gaze across the few people who had just spoken. They immediately shrunk their necks and lowered their heads, not daring to look her in the eye.
Meng Nianyao ignored them and followed Ping Yang out with her bag.
After they left, the employees whispered to each other, wondering if Gu Wencheng and Meng Nianyao were in a relationship. Otherwise, there was no reason for Ping Yang to be so nice to her.
They whispered amongst each other, saying that Meng Nianyao seemed to be very important. An Xinya heard this, and her face darkened.
Fu Yi followed beside her and shouted coldly, “It’s not time to get off work yet. What nonsense are you guys talking about?!”
The few of them were shocked by Fu Yi’s voice. When they turned around and saw An Xinya and Fu Yi, they were instantly extremely embarrassed.
“Speak. Repeat what you said just now,” An Xinya said with a dark face.
Meng Nianyao and Ping Yang walked out. Meng Nianyao was curious as to why Gu Wencheng had asked Ping Yang to call her off work today. Unexpectedly, when she got into the car, she found that Gu Wencheng didn’t look too good.
“What’s wrong?”
“I just received a call from the old mansion. Grandma accidentally fell down the stairs and is now on her way to the hospital.”
“What?” Meng Nianyao panicked. “Why did she suddenly fall? She was fine this morning.” Old people at this age could not afford to make mistakes.
However, at such a critical time, it happened to be rush hour, and there was a lot of traffic.
Gu Wencheng’s face darkened. Meng Nianyao knew that he had a good relationship with his grandparents, so she held his hand to calm him down. “Gu Wencheng, calm down. We’ll be there soon. Grandma will be fine. She will be fine.”
Gu Wencheng didn’t say anything and just held Meng Nianyao’s hand tightly.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the hospital.
Su Han waited outside the hospital’s entrance with a serious expression on his face.
“How did it go?” Gu Wencheng got out of the car.
“Grandma hasn’t arrived yet.” The old house was located in a remote area, so although there was an ambulance leading the way, it was still a little slower than Gu Wencheng. Su Han glanced at Gu Wencheng and gave him a warning. “I called my colleague in the ambulance. He said that Grandma’s condition is not good.”
Meng Nianyao walked over and happened to hear this sentence. She subconsciously pulled on Gu Wencheng’s hand, but his palm was cold.
Su Han briefly explained Grandma Gu’s condition. “Grandma Gu fell down the stairs and accidentally hit her head. She’s unconscious now, but we need to do a detailed examination to know the severity of the situation..”
