Chapter 1042: 1041 people who may have met with a disaster, possibly there are…

“Ah Kai, how come you left first?”

The one calling Gu Kai was Fang Zhiwei.

She had just been in a meeting, and when the meeting ended and she came out, Gu Kai was nowhere to be seen.

“Yeah, I’ve gone back first.”

Gu Kai walked out of the office building, striding towards the factory entrance.

“Oh, I didn’t see you when I came out of the meeting, so I called you. Since you’ve gone back, then it’s fine.”

After hanging up, Gu Kai opened his car door and sat in his Maybach.

Looking up, he glanced towards the office building, his handsome eyebrows furrowing again.

He suspected that he might be cursed.

How could he suddenly be interested in Bai Yiyi’s affairs, and even feel angry because she seduced men? Bai Yiyi, that flirtatious woman, admitted herself that besides having a one-night stand with him, she had also slept with many men.

Not even knowing who her daughter’s father is.

But, just now when he heard her explanation that she and Li En were just friends, he felt unexpectedly less angry. Whether her words were true or false, it was still unknown.

But at least, she did not admit to being flirtatious as she had the last time.

The next morning, at eleven o’clock, Bai Yiyi was busy organizing plans when her phone in the drawer began vibrating.

Seeing the call display, she instinctively frowned.

The phone rang for a long time before she reluctantly answered it, her voice coldly delivering a “Hello?”

“Bai Yiyi, bring over the new medicine your pharmaceutical factory developed. I need it in an hour.”

Over the phone, Gu Kai’s voice was deep, exuding a sense of nobility and authority that could not be defied. Bai Yiyi was taken aback. Although dissatisfied with his attitude, it was business-related, so she still responded with good temperament, “Okay, I’ll have someone bring it to you.”

Their pharmaceutical factory had been cooperating extensively with Kangning Hospital recently, and the new medicine being developed was a joint investment with Kangning Hospital.

“I don’t trust anyone else; you bring it here, immediately.”

Over the phone, there were faint sounds of other people talking. Gu Kai’s tone was very serious, concise, and without waiting for her agreement, he hung up.

Bai Yiyi cursed softly at the phone, pursed her lips, and had no choice but to get up and head to the lab to find Professor Li.

Half an hour later, Bai Yiyi arrived at Kangning Hospital with the new medicine.

As she reached the entrance, a clear voice called out from behind her, “Miss Bai.”

She turned around and realized that Fang Zhiwei was coming with a thermos food container, a hint of surprise flickering in her eyes. Bai Yiyi smiled and greeted her, “Miss Fang, are you here to see Doctor Gu?”

Perhaps because Fang Zhiwei was Gu Kai’s girlfriend, Bai Yiyi had a particularly strong impression of her.

Having only met once, but she remembered her.

Fang Zhiwei smiled and shook her head, “Not entirely, I came to see my dad. He was admitted to Kangning Hospital a few days ago. Miss Bai, are you also here to visit a patient?”

Not entirely?

Then she was also here to see Gu Kai.

Bai Yiyi raised the bag in her hand and said, “Miss Fang, I’m here to deliver medicine to Doctor Gu. Since you’re going to see him, could you take this medicine to him for me? Doctor Gu said over the phone that he urgently needs it.”

Before, Bai Yiyi would avoid Gu Kai.

After yesterday, she was even less willing to face him. To others, Gu Kai might seem like a noble and refined gentleman, but in her eyes, that man was despicable.

Fang Zhiwei looked at the bag in Bai Yiyi’s hand, hesitated for two seconds, and declined tactfully, “Miss Bai, you should deliver it yourself. I’m afraid Ah Kai would be mad if I did it for you.”

A woman’s intuition told Fang Zhiwei that there was more than just generational grudges between Bai Yiyi and Gu Kai.

She hadn’t been dating Gu Kai for long, but he was a gentle and elegant man. He might be somewhat distant with women, but he was always polite. She never saw him treat anyone like he treated Bai Yiyi.

“How could that be, you’re Doctor Gu’s girlfriend, he won’t be mad at you. If it weren’t for the fact that everyone at the company is busy and President Wen isn’t at the office, I wouldn’t have come here myself. Miss Fang, I’ll tell you the truth. There’s some misunderstanding between me and Doctor Gu. He really doesn’t want to see me now.”

“Then, okay.”

Hearing Bai Yiyi put it that way, Fang Zhiwei smiled and reached out to take the bag from Bai Yiyi’s hand.

Bai Yiyi smiled gratefully at Fang Zhiwei, thanked her, and quickly turned to walk toward the parking lot.

Unaware, behind her, at a window on one of the floors, Gu Kai stood with arms behind his back, his clearly jointed, large hand clutching the edge of the curtain. Through the glass window, he observed the scene below.

The corner of his mouth curled into a cold arc; that woman had made it to the hospital entrance and then walked away.

Minutes later, Fang Zhiwei arrived at Gu Kai’s office. He sat behind his desk, focused on studying a CT scan of a skull.

“Ah Kai.”

Fang Zhiwei walked to his desk, passed him the bag, and explained, “I ran into Bai Yiyi outside. She asked me to give this to you, saying you’d need it soon.”

“Oh.”

Gu Kai took the bag from her hand, looked inside briefly, and tossed it aside.

Mo Yu looked at the thermos in her hand and softly said, “Zhiwei, you don’t have to bring Uncle Fang his meals every day. It’s too tiring, let the driver deliver them. Or, I can have our housekeeper make a portion.”

Fang Zhiwei shook her head with a smile, “It’s not tiring; my dad loves the food I make and the soups I brew. Running back and forth a bit more each day to see him happy is worth it.”

Saying this, she placed the thermos on his desk and chirped, “Ah Kai, I brought an extra portion today. Would you like to try my cooking?”

“Sure.”

Gu Kai’s eyes sparked, happily accepting.

Fang Zhiwei seemed slightly surprised he agreed so quickly. On her way up she had wondered if Gu Kai would have any unusual reaction to Bai Yiyi coming to the hospital entrance but not entering.

But he seemed not to care at all.

She sighed with relief and felt more cheerful.

**

It was easy for Wen Ran to get Bai Yiyi’s hair.

However, Bai Yiyi kept insisting she not return so soon. On the third day, Mo Xiuchen called her and told her some news about Cheng Jia.

“Ranran, among the victims of this mudslide disaster, Cheng Jia might be one.”

“Cheng Jia?”

Wen Ran’s voice carried a touch of surprise. Was Cheng Jia in City C? Previously, there was talk she might have gone abroad, but that was just a possibility.

“Yes, yesterday the rescue team found Cheng Jia’s ID by the river. I’ve confirmed it; the ID is hers. Not just her, but her parents too.”

Wen Ran asked in confusion, “Aren’t her parents in G City?”

“They were in G City, but they came to City C a week ago. I guess they found out Cheng Jia was here and rushed over, but it was too late.”

“They all perished?”

Wen Ran frowned in concern.
