The moment Gu Yu Cheng heard of Su Rui’s accident, he felt that his heart was about to stop beating.

Even at this moment, Gu Yu Cheng was still feeling unsettled as he held the person in his arms.

“Yu Cheng…”

“Don’t be afraid.”

“En,” Su Rui responded, trying to make her tone as relaxed as possible.

At this moment, being held tightly by Gu Yu Cheng, she could clearly feel the man shaking.

“I’m fine. It’s alright. Don’t be afraid either.”

With her arms tightly wrapped around Gu Yu Cheng’s neck, Su Rui whispered in Gu Yu Cheng’s ear over and over again that she was fine, trying to calm this person down.

The moment she was forcefully pushed from behind, probably out of maternal instinct, Su Rui subconsciously protected her stomach even though she had fallen forward.

So, other than the pain in her knees and arms, she doesn’t feel any pain on her stomach.

Of course, it was more of a shock.

It happened so suddenly that until now, Su Rui still hasn’t calmed down.

Moreover, Su Rui’s mind was in a turmoil. She was not sure whether she was alright or not.

It’s just that, at this moment, Gu Yu Cheng was already anxious. Hence, Su Rui didn’t want to make him even more anxious.

Even so, Gu Yu Cheng can still sense Su Rui’s fear at the moment.

“Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”

……

[Hospital] ‒ After the initial examination of Su Rui’s condition, the doctor’s face didn’t look too good either.

It was only after several more tests, such as progesterone level and ultrasound, were done to make sure that the fetus was still stable, was Su Rui transferred to the ward.

However, the doctor’s expression was still very solemn when facing Gu Yu Cheng and Su Rui.

“You two don’t need to be too anxious. The condition of the pregnant woman and the fetus are still relatively stable.” After a pause, the doctor added, “But since there are already symptoms of slight pain and bleeding, she still needs to stay in the hospital for further observation.”

“Alright.” Gu Yu Cheng responded.

Due to his angst, the corner of his lips was pursed into a straight line.

“Also, during early stages of the pregnancy, the fetus is still unstable. So things like a fall must be avoided.” Looking at the two, the doctor warned with a serious face before leaving.

After the doctor left, Gu Yu Cheng looked at Su Rui and asked, “Are you hungry?”

Su Rui shook her head.

“Do you want to drink water?”

Su Rui shook her head again.

“Yu Cheng.”

“I’m here.” Gu Yu Cheng leaned down and placed a kiss on Su Rui’s forehead.

Rubbing gently against Gu Yu Cheng’s shoulders, Su Rui said softly, “I was really a bit scared just now.”

It was only at this moment that Su Rui uttered the fear she felt at that moment.

Hearing these words, Gu Yu Cheng’s body hardened.

“I’m sorry.” After a pause, he added, “I didn’t take care of you.”

“It wasn’t your fault. Besides, you are already good.”

Gu Yu Cheng replied softly, “Mm, It’s okay, don’t be afraid.”

“Yeah, I am fine. So you can relax a bit too, don’t be so anxious.” Su Rui said and patted Gu Yu Cheng’s back.

This was what she wanted to say.

“Okay.” Gu Yu Cheng nodded. However, the look on his face was still not too good.

……

Outside the ward, seeing Gu Yu Cheng come out of the room, Wang Zhou hurriedly lowered his head and said in a deep voice, “Chairman, I’m sorry. This matter was a dereliction of my duty.”

That moment just now was too sudden. No one expected that Bai Xin Yu would actually suddenly charge from behind Su Rui and violently push her.

So much so that, at that moment, even though Wang Zhou was right next to Su Rui, he was not able to hold her up at the first opportunity.

However, letting Bai Xin Yu into Gu Company’s hall was indeed a dereliction of his duty.

Moreover, since he was sending Su Rui down, he was responsible for ensuring Su Rui is safe.

Hearing Wang Zhou’s words, Gu Yu Cheng’s gaze was slightly severe and he did not say anything.

“Where is that person now?”

“The person is still at the company’s security department. However, the police have been notified.”

“When the police arrive, do we bring the person over directly?”

“Sure.” Gu Yu Cheng nodded and added, “Hand the person over first, and wait for me to deal with the follow-up.”

“Understood.”

“Go to Yuan Ju Restaurant and buy and bring back a congee and two boxes of softer dim sum.” Gu Yu Cheng said.

After discussing with Su Rui the matter of being pushed and taken to the hospital, the two of them (Gu Yu Cheng and Su Rui) decided not to tell the elders on both sides for the time being. So at this time, it was not good for Gu Yu Cheng to ask the housekeeper to send food over.

Yuan Ju Restaurant was a restaurant that Su Rui liked a lot.

“Okay. Then, would you like to eat something, Chairman? I’ll bring back some for you.”

“Just buy something from there.”

……

Twenty minutes later, Wang Zhou returned with the congee and dim sum he bought.

“Chairman, this is the congee and two dim sums. I also bought a meal for you.” Wang Zhou said as he carried the items over.

“And…” As Wang Zhou said that, a hint of hesitation appeared on his face.

“President Zhou is here.”

Before Wang Zhou’s words even left his mouth, Zhou Zi Yuan had already walked in with Tang Xiao.

“Su Xiao Rui, quickly let me take a look. Are you alright?”

Tang Xiao was the first to rush over to Su Rui.

“Su…”

Behind her, Zhou Zi Yuan was just about to speak, but Gu Yu Cheng gestured to him with his eyes to head outside.

Lao Gu, this time…”

Bang——

Zhou Zi Yuan had not started his sentence and before he could even react, he had already fallen to the ground by Gu Yu Cheng’s punch.

Su Rui and Tang Xiao in the ward were both surprised by the commotion outside.

“What’s going on?”

“I’ll go and take a look.” As Tang Xiao said that, she hopped off the bed and ran outside.

Seeing the commotion outside, Tang Xiao was startled.

And at that moment, the door to the ward opened and Su Rui could vaguely see what was going on outside.

“Gu Yu Cheng!”

Eventually, Tang Xiao stopped Zhou Zi Yuan, and Su Rui called Gu Yu Cheng in.

Not long after, Zhou Zi Yuan came to the door of the ward again and said, “Lao Gu, you have to let me explain myself. I…”

“Ah…Uh… Rui Rui, rest well. And you as well, Chairman Gu. We will come back another day.”

Luckily at this time, Tang Xiao ran over and hurriedly pulled Zhou Zi Yuan, who still wanted to say something, away.

The infuriated Gu Yu Cheng was simply too scary. If they didn’t leave, she was worried that this brain-dead was going to get beaten up again.

“Assistant Wang, please see President Zhou and Tang Xiao off,” Su Rui said to Wang Zhou.

“Alright.”

When they turned to leave, the grip of Su Rui’s hand that was pulling Gu Yu Cheng’s arm tightened again. She looked towards Gu Yu Cheng, “Don’t make me worry.”
