Chapter 405: Chapter 398: Uncle is Here
Her heart skipped a beat. A wave of indescribable joy filled her to the core. Even Sang Zhilan was taken aback. Did Wei Jiani keep something from her? When did she get such a fantastic boyfriend? She wondered where this young man was from and the circumstances of his family. However, judging from his appearance and demeanor, he didn’t seem like an ordinary person.
“Nini...”
Just as Sang Zhilan was about to ask Wei Jiani, a voice interrupted her from behind.
“Uncle Gu, when did you get here?”
The man seemed to pause as well. His eyes remained calm and cold. He walked past Sang Zhilan and her daughter without giving them a second glance, just as Sang Zhilan had ignored Tang Yuxin earlier.
He was a stranger to them, unneeded, and of no concern.
Tang Yuxin came out and stood in front of Gu Ning. She had felt a sense of familiarity with him but couldn’t pinpoint why until he came closer. To her surprise, it was Gu Ning.
But wasn’t Gu Ning supposed to be on a business trip? He mentioned something about introducing a new electronic technology, which made her wonder why he would appear here.
“I came to see you,” Gu Ning told Tang Yuxin, standing tall at over one meter eight to her diminutive one meter six. Even with shoes on, there was still a full head’s height difference between them. Yet, somehow, it felt harmonious. Gu Ning reached out to adjust her clothing, saying, “You look better in this outfit, it’s more refined.”
“I think so too, it’s just that my hair is too long,” Tang Yuxin admitted, quite enjoying the outfit despite not being a student here where short hair was the norm; in contrast, she had long hair.
“Mr. Huang can walk now. He’s very grateful to you.”
Gu Ning commented, seeming quite satisfied with the cafeteria at Fifth Medical University. The strict management of the school resulted in a clean cafeteria.
“That’s wonderful,” Tang Yuxin had been worried about Mr. Huang. Hearing he could walk again assured her that his leg was nearly recovered. The remaining treatment would focus on post-op recovery, which could vary greatly depending on the individual. Some might recover faster, while others might take longer.
Gu Ning wasn’t picky about the food here. In fact, he didn’t seem to be picky about anything. As long as there was food to eat, even plain white rice was fine for him. His speed of eating was typically fast, possibly due to being tied up with work all the time and his constantly busy schedule.
Gu Ning didn’t linger after finishing his meal and departed promptly but not before handing Tang Yuxin a package. She held a box in her hand, shook it lightly, and wondered what was inside.
After handing her the box, Gu Ning disappeared. He exited the school gate at an incredibly fast pace, so fast that he seemed to vanish the moment he got into his off-road vehicle, true to the adage.
Like the wind he came, like the wind he left.
Tang Yuxin brought the box inside. It was nicely packaged, but she was clueless about its contents. She shook it lightly; it seemed pretty light.
When she returned to her dormitory, all her roommates were there. Seeing the number of items on Tang Yuxin’s bed, they were all surprised.
“Yuxin, did your family come as well?”
“Yes, they did,” Tang Yuxin opened the bag of snacks for her roommates to enjoy. “An uncle of mine came over. My parents sent some stuff over as well. These are the snacks my little brother saved for me. The little guy didn’t even allow himself to eat them.”
Her roommates couldn’t help but want to laugh when they saw the bag full of small snacks like PopStar.
