After leaving the compound, Gu Ye rode his bike in silence, not saying a word, and his unusual quietness was noticeable.

“What did your dad say to you? Did he scold you?” Chu Qiao asked with concern. 

He had been talking with the old man in the room for half an hour, and ever since he came out, he seemed to be preoccupied.   

“He didn’t.” 

Gu Ye shook his head and remained silent for a long time before finally saying, “Qiao Qiao, I plan to use the remaining twenty thousand yuan to pay for the old man’s treatment. And if it’s not enough, I might have to borrow some more.” 

Even though his dad’s medical expenses would be covered by the state, if he needed to import uncommon medicine or some high-quality wild ginseng for the supplements, then he would still have to pay for it himself. So, Gu Ye wanted to prepare it in advance. 

Chu Qiao’s heart skipped a beat and she urgently asked, “What’s wrong with your dad? What kind of illness does he have?” 

In the previous life, Old Mr. Gu was in good health. 

Even when she died, he could still go chasing thieves on the street. How could he suddenly fall ill now? 

Could it be that this world she returned to was different from her previous life? 

“The old man wants me to take him to First Hospital tomorrow morning for a check-up, and he doesn’t want my mom to know. His designated hospital is Second Hospital, but he is sneaking over to First Hospital instead. That means that it’s probably something serious, and he doesn’t want my mom to worry. Just now, looking at him, I suddenly realized how much he has aged, sigh……”  

Gu Ye sighed heavily. 

His heart felt heavy, he preferred seeing the old man full of energy, scolding and hitting people. 

Seeing him looking so old and frail made Gu Ye feel uncomfortable. 

Chu Qiao frowned. 

From the way things sounded, it seemed like Old Mr. Gu really had a serious illness. 

But there was also a chance it was a misdiagnosis. So she reassured him, “Don’t worry too much yet. Maybe it’s just a mistake. Even if he is sick, health care is very advanced nowadays. We’ll spend money to treat him. I still have over six thousand yuan, and if it’s not enough, we can sell that house. Anyway, we’ll find a way to cure him.”

“We can’t use your money, you need it to buy the house. Let’s wait and see the situation first. If it’s really not enough, I will borrow from Old Tang, he has money.” 

Gu Ye didn’t want to use his wife’s money. 

Only incompetent men would spend women’s money. 

Chu Qiao angrily said, “Why can’t I spend my own money? Do you also look down on me for working in the dance hall?” 

“Of course not! I would never think like that.” 

Gu Ye quickly explained, he never looked down on anyone’s job. 

As long as it was legitimate work, it was a respectable occupation, whether it was located in a dance hall or elsewhere. 

Even a woman like Lulu, who worked as a hostess serving drinks, Gu Ye had never discriminated against her. 

Everyone was just trying to survive, as long as they didn’t harm the society. 

Of course, he would definitely not marry a woman like Lulu. He was cautious in this regard. 

“Then stop fussing over whose money it is. We will spend our money together, and I think your dad probably isn’t sick, it might be misdiagnosed. Let’s not overthink it.” 

Chu Qiao still suspected that it was a misdiagnosis. 

Old Mr. Gu’s body was as strong as a cow. When he was beating Gu Jianshe with the belt just now, it sounded so fierce that it could make someone’s flesh split open. How could such a strong old man be sick?   

Gu Ye felt a bit better. Maybe it really was just a misdiagnosis. 

The next morning, Gu Ye got up early, and took Dabao and Xiaobao for morning exercises. 

Then he went to take a shower, changed into a shirt, trousers, and leather shoes. 

Chu Qiao had already made breakfast, and it was the scallion and meat dumplings she had made yesterday.  

“These dumplings are full of flavor. Pack a box for the old man, he loves scallion and meat dumplings the most.” 

Gu Ye ate a big bowl of dumplings, sweating from the heat. 

These were his favorite, and Old Mr. Gu liked them too. 

Moreover, Old Mr. Gu had a pure northern tastebud, unlike Gu Ye, who had a mixed palate, and could eat both northern and southern cuisine. 

“Okay!”  

Chu Qiao packed a full aluminum lunch box and even included a small portion of the vinegar and chili sauce, so that he could dip the dumplings.
