But now,she had lost her job and lived on the streets. She could not even protect herself,so how could she repay their kindness? The night was getting darker,and there was no one on the empty street. Only colorful neon lights shone in solitude. The cold wind blew,causing Xia Yuhan hair to fall. She got up with difficulty and rubbed her sore legs,intending to find a quiet corner to rest for the night. At the corner of the department store,there was a place where one could take shelter. Xia Yuhan thought for a moment before walking over and leaning against the wall. Her head was dizzy and her eyes were too tired to open. She sat in the corner and fell asleep. Cold sweat oozed from his forehead. The hair on his forehead pressed against the melon seeds' face,and he looked extremely haggard. Fragments flashed through her head,but she could not see them clearly. It was as if she had fallen into an endless abyss. No matter how hard she struggled,it was useless... Late at night in the early spring season,although the city along the river was full of neon and bustling,the night breeze also brought a chill. The manager of the department store Gu Monan,dressed in a straight suit,walked out of the elevator with a few employees. There was a black car parked downstairs. When he approached,someone reached out and opened the door for him. His name was Gu Monan and he was the manager of this department store. After graduating from college,he took the position of manager of this listed company. He was kind and friendly to people,and many female colleagues liked him from the bottom of their hearts. Moreover,he was meticulous in his work. He was always busy until late at night before he returned home. The Liu Song beside him was his assistant. The person was not bad. He was very serious at work,but his reaction was a little slow. ###Chapter6,Gu Monan He walked forward and opened the car door. He was about to drive home. But with a casual glance,he saw the unconscious Xia Yuhan leaning against the corner. He was puzzled. After some thought,he got out of the car and walked over to tell Gu Monan about it. Outside the window,he bent down and tapped on the glass. He said respectfully to the Gu Monan in the car," Manager,over there..." "There seems to be someone!" After he finished speaking,he pointed at the corner of the building. If he wasn't seeing things,there was indeed a person sitting in the corner,and... She seemed to be a woman! Under the faint light,she didn't look like a beggar. Why did he end up living on the streets? Liu Song felt strange. The Gu Monan in the car gave him a look and signaled him to step aside. He pushed open the door from inside. He walked down. He followed Liu Song direction and walked over. The dim yellow street lamp kept flashing,and a faint light shone on the woman. She was wearing a white sweater and a gray coat. A blue pair of jeans had already turned pale. He held a slightly worn cloth bag in his arms. His hair was messy and his face was pale as he leaned against the wall. Gu Monan walked over to her and squatted down." Hey!" "Wake up!" He did not know how to address her. After two or three calls,she actually saw that she had no intention of waking up. Moreover,her little face turned red and her breathing became hurried. Gu Monan had a bad feeling. He reached out and touched her forehead. The boiling sensation made his heart tremble. He couldn't care much about it. He picked her up and ordered Liu Song to drive to the hospital. Liu Song had been by Gu Monan's side for a long time,but he had never seen him so anxious. She was stunned for a long time before she could react. As a result,he hurriedly opened the car door and sped towards the best central hospital in the city. As the Xia Yuhan was extremely cold,he needed to be sent to the emergency room. Gu Monan followed the doctor's instructions and rushed back and forth in the huge hospital. It wasn't until early in the morning that Xia Yuhan was sent to the hospital ward that he finally relaxed. After sending off the Liu Song,Gu Monan picked up his phone and walked to the outside of the ward. He dialed the number that his mother had picked up. He pretended as if nothing had happened and lied to his family. He said he would work overtime tonight,so he didn't want to go back to rest. His mother didn't ask much about it either. She just told him to take care of himself as usual. After hanging up,Gu Monan let out a sigh of relief. He slowly walked into the ward and sat in front of the bed. Looking at the delicate and pretty but pale-faced woman lying on the white bed,Gu Monan couldn't help but feel indescribable. Perhaps he was too tired. He didn't know when he fell asleep by the bed. The first ray of sunlight shone through the glass window. The clear and melodious cries of birds entered the ward. Gu Monan got up and saw that the woman was sleeping soundly,so she softly walked out. By the time he returned with breakfast in his hand,Xia Yuhan had already woken up. When she opened her eyes,she saw the white wall and the drops in her hands. It took her a long time to realize that this was the hospital. But why was she in the hospital? She remembered that last night,she had clearly found a corner to hide herself from the wind and was preparing to join in the night. Seeing the unfamiliar man walking in,he even placed the lunch box on the bedside table. Xia Yuhan was filled with doubt and asked," Well,I'm sorry." May I ask you,is this the hospital? "Why am I here?" Gu Monan took a look at her and opened the lunch box in her hand. She handed it to her. Then,she sat on the chair and explained," That's right." I came across you when I was preparing to go home last night. "But I don't know why you suddenly have a fever,so I sent you to the hospital." She had a fever? Xia Yuhan was filled with doubt. But when she looked at the man in front of her,she didn't seem to be lying. She did n' t know what to do. However,she politely thanked him," No matter what,I still have to thank you. "I just don't know how to address you,sir?" "Gu Monan." Gu Monan didn't waste any unnecessary words. Instead,he simply said his name to her. Hearing this,Xia Yuhan nodded. She adjusted her hair and continued," Mr. Gu,my name is Xia Yuhan. Just call me Yu Han. "I wonder if Mr. Gu can leave a contact information. I'm discharged from the hospital. I' ll definitely come to the door and thank you." "No need. I don't need to thank you for this." Gu Monan smiled and shook his head. He stood up and moved the chair behind him. "You should have a good rest first," she said softly. "I still have something to do. I'll come see you tomorrow." Xia Yuhan pulled open the blanket and prepared to get out of bed to send him off,but he stopped him in time. A faint smile appeared on his handsome face. "I can just leave myself." He was anxious and grabbed her arm. When he realized it,he quickly retracted his hand and smiled awkwardly. He did not dare to look at her. Instead,he greeted her and hurriedly walked out and closed the door. Xia Yuhan could not help but smile. The ward she was in was located in the middle,so she could see the view of the garden downstairs through the window. The spring flowers in the garden bloomed,golden. Under the sunlight,it bloomed even more brightly. A pair of white-haired couples sat on a bench in the garden. The old granny was wearing a sick clothes. The old grandpa took off his clothes and put them on her. A happy smile appeared on her face. For some reason,Xia Yuhan eyes unconsciously began to moisten. She finished eating the breakfast Gu Monan had bought and had nothing to do. She sat by the window in a daze. She had also thought of leaving the hospital quickly. After all,she hadn't come to work yet. If she couldn't find a job,she would have to live on the streets. Her life in the future was still unknown. However,Gu Monan said that he would come tomorrow morning,she had already promised him. How could he go back on his word and lose faith in others? After all,he had saved himself. Wouldn't it be too impolite to just leave like this? Xia Yuhan spent the entire day in the ward. She had planned to bid farewell to Gu Monan the next morning,so she was about to leave. However,the heavens could not fulfill their wishes. She would never have thought that Gu Monan had only met her once,but she secretly fell in love with her at first sight. Furthermore,it was already impossible for her to escape unscathed. Xia Yuhan lay quietly on the bed and fell asleep... ###Chapter7,discharged Ever since he met Xia Yuhan,Gu Monan had been in a good mood all day. In fact,he couldn't help but hum a tune when he had nothing to do with his work. "Manager,the lady from yesterday..." The assistant Liu Song handed the folder in his arms to Gu Monan. Then,he stood at the table and asked curiously. Although Liu Song was a little slow,he was still extremely interested in gossip. Normally,when they had nothing to do,they would squeeze together with their female colleagues and sneakily chat about interesting gossip. Gu Monan still knew him well. He raised his head and glanced at Liu Song. It took a long time to realize that Liu Song was joking with him. He lowered his eyes and closed the folder in his hand before throwing it at him." Kid,can you stop gossiping all day?" Did he have nothing else to do? !" There was a hint of anger in Gu Monan tone. Liu Song saw that he was a little embarrassed and coughed as if nothing had happened. He tidied up the folder and held it in his arms. With a look of grievance,he mumbled softly," Why are you so angry from embarrassment?" "I didn't say anything!" "Kid,why aren't you working?" Gu Monan sat on Liu Song chair and glared at him,signaling him to hurry out. This kid,if this gossip didn't change his personality,how could he get a wife in the future? Liu Song saw that he was angry,she reluctantly left the office. After such a commotion in the Liu Song,when he thought of Xia Yuhan innocent smile,Gu Monan face turned red from neck to ear. He couldn't put his mind on work at all. It wasn't easy to get through to the end of work,so he drove home. At the dinner table,the four of them sat around the table. Yesterday was Gu Monan sister's Gu Xiaoxiao holiday,but she did n' t see him when she went home. After asking her mother,she realized that her brother was going to stay up late and work overtime. However,she still did not believe it. The sweet-looking Gu Xiaoxiao was only two years younger than Gu Monan. She was currently in her senior year and was looking for a job with her best friend. Seeing that it was a holiday,she squeezed out time to go home for two days. "Brother,why didn't you come home last night?" "Isn't it..." Gu Xiaoxiao squeezed his eyes towards Gu Monan with an expression that you knew. This sentence made Gu Monan almost spit out the water he had just drunk. She choked when she wasn't careful. She could only put down the cup and violently patted her chest and coughed.
