Jianghai Hospital.
At the inpatient payment window.
"What? You're saying all my previous medical bills have been paid off?"
Wang Yulan looked at the nurse checking her medical expenses at the window with a shocked expression.
"That's right, Ms. Wang. The system shows that all your fees were paid in full two hours ago," the nurse nodded with a smile. She recognized this patient's family member from Room 302.
After all, they had been in the inpatient department for half a year now.
Everyone knew about their family situation.
So even though they couldn't pay all the medical fees at once, the hospital director had been turning a blind eye.
However, they didn't expect that not long ago, some kind-hearted person actually cleared Wang Yulan's previous debts.
Moreover, they even prepaid 2 million yuan into her account for subsequent treatment.
It could be said that Wang Yulan's family had definitely encountered a benefactor.
"This... Can I know who paid the money?" Wang Yulan's tone was a bit excited. Her hands tightly gripped the counter in front of the window. The emotions she had been suppressing all along seemed to have improved.
She really didn't expect that someone would actually pay off their past treatment fees.
Wang Yulan wasn't the kind of person who would accept other people's kindness without feeling grateful.
As long as she could find the person who helped them, no matter what they wanted her to do, she would be willing to do it!
The nurse heard Wang Yulan's words and looked a bit troubled. She shook her head, "I'm really sorry, Ms. Wang, but I wasn't at the window earlier, so I don't know who came to clear the fees."
"And... generally speaking, we don't record other people's names and information here."
As she said this, the nurse suddenly spoke again, "Oh right, that kind person also deposited 2 million yuan into your mother's account... Ms. Wang?"
"Are you alright?"
The nurse looked worriedly at Wang Yulan, whose expression had frozen in front of her.
What was wrong with her? Wasn't it a good thing that someone had cleared their debt?
"It's... it's nothing. I... I need to go out for a bit."
Wang Yulan came back to her senses. She shook her head, then walked out of the hospital, suppressing her excited emotions.
Arriving at the hospital entrance.
A ray of sunlight shone on her face.
Wang Yulan lifted her head, using her hand to slightly shield the sunlight.
Looking at the clear blue sky, Wang Yulan seemed a bit dazed.
Today was a sunny day.
And just as Wang Yulan was enjoying this happy moment.
On the upper floors of the hospital.
Gu Yan stood expressionlessly in front of a floor-to-ceiling window.
From above, he calmly watched Wang Yulan, who was showing a long-absent relaxed appearance.
"Are you happy? You'll have an even happier time ahead."
"Consider it... compensation for me depriving you of your original predetermined plot."
Gu Yan muttered to himself.
Then he picked up his phone and made a call: "Prepare to act as we planned."
Click. At this moment, the door of the room was pushed open.
A kindly old man wearing a white coat walked in with a stack of documents.
He looked at Gu Yan's back as he stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
In his mind, he suddenly recalled the image of Gu Tianming, the head of the Gu family, when he was young.
Heh, he really is that man's son.
Gu Yan also heard the movement. He put down his phone.
As he turned his head, his expressionless face had already put on a gentle smile and sunny disposition: "Good afternoon, Grandpa Pu."
"I came to visit my teacher today, and thought it had been a long time since I visited you, so I came to sit with you for a while."
"I hope I'm not disturbing you."
Gu Yan's humble and polite manner instantly won Pu Songlin's favor.
He put the materials in his hand on the table, then walked over to Gu Yan kindly: "Not disturbing at all. I'm almost retired, what could I be busy with?"
"But little Gu, I didn't expect you to still remember this old man."
"After all, when you were little, you used to hate me the most. In your eyes, I was the scary doctor uncle."
Pu Songlin felt a bit nostalgic for those times. Back then, Gu Yan was born in Jianghai Hospital.
He couldn't believe how much time had passed and how grown up Gu Yan was now.
Over the years, he had been following news about Gu Yan, but the reviews weren't very good.
Things like being a bootlicker, an unfilial son, and so on.
It made him extremely disappointed in Gu Yan.
But now that he saw him, he didn't seem as terrible as the rumors made him out to be.
"Haha, I was young and didn't know any better then," Gu Yan smiled slightly. He exchanged a few pleasantries: "Please forgive me, Grandpa Pu."
"Father has always been thinking of you, Grandpa Pu, but he's been too busy with family matters to get away."
"I'm here on his behalf to see you."
Pu Songlin felt very gratified and touched hearing this.
At this point, he suddenly thought of something and asked: "Oh right, little Gu, you said you came to visit your teacher?"
"Is it that Wang Lan from Room 302 that you called earlier and asked me to waive the hospital fees for?"
Pu Songlin had some impression of this patient from Room 302.
After all, she had been staying in the hospital for half a year.
Many medical fees had been delayed, but her daughter would pay off the debt bit by bit.
Although the progress was slow, he wasn't a heartless person.
Plus, this hospital was opened by the Gu family, so there weren't so many strict rules.
Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Keeping the patient from Room 302 in the hospital was just adding one more bed.
Moreover... the Gu family really didn't lack this small amount of money.
Hearing the director's words, Gu Yan also put on a sad expression.
He took a deep breath, looking at the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling window with a sorrowful gaze. His voice carried a slight tremor: "Yes, Wang Lan is my teacher."
"I learned that she had been in a car accident and was hospitalized. Her husband died, and the family only has a daughter who graduated just a few years ago. Life is very hard for them."
"So I chose to waive their medical fees."
"This is... just repaying the kindness she showed me when she taught me back then!"
Gu Yan's words made Pu Songlin feel extremely moved.
He patted Gu Yan's shoulder with pride and gratification: "Good child! I wasn't wrong about you back then."
"You really are Gu Tianming's son. Your father would definitely be proud of you."
Pu Songlin looked at the grown-up child before him, feeling incredibly angry at those who spread those rumors.
Such a good child, yet he was described as some bootlicker and unfilial son!
This is going too far! Do they think us elders don't exist?!
"Mm."
Gu Yan nodded, then seemed to think of something.
He specifically instructed Director Pu: "Oh right, Grandpa Director, please don't tell Teacher Wang's daughter that I cleared their debt."
"I don't want to affect my relationship between the two of them..."
Before he could finish speaking.
Pu Songlin nodded, smiling with satisfaction: "Alright, alright, I'll definitely keep it a secret for you."
Not arrogant or impetuous, and with such filial piety.
Mm, he's a good child.
It seems... when it's time for the family gathering.
That vote for the heir of the Gu Family Group, I'll definitely have to cast it for this child Gu Yan.
