Childhood Sweethearts: He’s Jealous Again!

Chapter 97: Chapter 97 Appendicitis

As for cell phones, although they were not yet widespread during this era, they were already in existence. It was just that parents were afraid they would distract their children from their goals, so they had not bought them.

“Luo Mengmeng, I’m taking you to the hospital right now.”

Since there was no phone to use, Gu Zhihan simply picked her up and rushed to the hospital.

Fortunately, his family’s hospital was only one street away from their home.

In the past, Gu Zhihan had thought this distance was very short, but now it felt incredibly long…

So long that he feared every minute and every second might delay Mengmeng’s life.

“Luo Mengmeng, you won’t have any trouble, you definitely won’t,” Gu Zhihan kept repeating these words, as if to comfort her, or perhaps to comfort himself.

About ten minutes later, Gu Zhihan finally reached the hospital.

After barging into the hospital, he went straight to the director’s office via the elevator.

Bang!

He kicked the door open.

“Who dares to be so bold?” Sitting behind his desk drinking tea, Director Gu was startled by the noise and was organizing his thoughts on how to reprimand the intruder.

But when he saw it was his own son, he rolled his eyes in exasperation.

“What are you doing here, boy? Isn’t it the first day of school today? Why aren’t you in class and instead here causing a fuss?” he asked, annoyed.

“Luo Mengmeng, Luo Mengmeng… Save her!” At that moment, Gu Zhihan was gasping for air, large droplets of sweat streaming down his face as he hoarsely shouted.

“What’s wrong with my daughter-in-law?” Hearing about Mengmeng’s incident, Director Gu’s frivolous expression turned serious, and only then did he notice that Gu Zhihan was holding Mengmeng in his arms.

She seemed to be unconscious!

Damn!

Director Gu hurried over, pried open Luo Mengmeng’s eyes, and rapidly asked, “How did she faint? What happened before this?”

“Stomach pain, lower right abdomen,” Gu Zhihan had calmed down quite a bit by now and quickly and accurately described Mengmeng’s condition.

“Quick, give her to me, I’ll take her to get checked out immediately.”

As soon as he heard “lower right abdomen,” Director Gu knew it was serious and promptly took Mengmeng from Gu Zhihan’s arms, striding quickly to get her examined.

After the examination results came back, unsurprisingly, it was appendicitis…

“Is surgery needed?” Gu Zhihan glanced at the examination report, then immediately looked up at Director Gu.

Appendicitis could be of various types; some required surgery while others did not.

“It’s necessary. In a case like Mengmeng’s, surgery is a must. Drips won’t do any good.” Director Gu nodded, then continued, “You should skip school today. Mengmeng’s mom and dad are working out of town and definitely can’t make it back in time. You stay here and act as her guardian in the ward for now, and I’ll call to inform them about the situation.”

“Okay,” Gu Zhihan agreed without hesitation.

Even if he had not said so, he would have stayed to accompany her anyway.

With her in trouble, the last thing on his mind was going to school.

“Then take good care of her, I need to go prepare for the surgery. Afterwards, I will have a nurse come and inform you,” said Director Gu after making the call to Mengmeng’s parents, and then he started heading towards the door.

Appendicitis might only require a minor surgery, but he was still reluctant to entrust it to someone else.

However, just as he was about to walk away, his white coat was seized by a pair of small hands.

His steps abruptly halted.

“Wu wu, Director Gu, I don’t want to have surgery, I’m scared…”

Turning around, he saw Mengmeng, who had been unconscious, suddenly come to with tearful eyes looking at him.
