Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 336 When Can Uncle Yue Come Back

Gu Kuangyuan and Cheng Ye stood outside the hospital room, Gu Kuangyuan cried through half a pack of tissues, she really couldn’t accept this reality.

They grew up with Yue Xiaoyang, who was such a cheerful and carefree young man, a prominent figure in the medical field, and now he helplessly lies in a hospital bed; this is undoubtedly the heaviest blow to him.

"Does he really not want to see us? We just want to see him."

The nurse apologized, "The patient’s emotions are very unstable, it’s not suitable for visits now."

Cheng Ye helped her wipe her tears, "Let’s let him rest well for now, we’ll come back another time."

Gu Kuangyuan tearfully said to the nurse, "Please tell Mr. Yue that we won’t give up on the case, and he shouldn’t give up either, we’ll see him again."

The nurse didn’t know about the case, she said, "Don’t worry, I’ll relay the message verbatim."

Cheng Ye and Gu Kuangyuan returned to the apartment, Gu Kuangyuan asked him, "Is there really no way for this case?"

Cheng Ye had several thick legal codes in front of him, his brow furrowed, "With Xiaoyang unable to help gather evidence, it has become even more difficult."

Although Yue Xiaoyang is on the defendant’s side, his authority in the medical field is absolute, the evidence they provide would be his weapon to strike down the opponent in court.

The case involving Shen Bo is quite tricky; the patient who died on the operating table was the governor’s stepmother, a very young woman who frequently mingled in high society circles, and had dealings with many political figures. Her death connected a series of shady people and affairs, making the situation difficult to handle.

If it were an ordinary citizen who died on the operating table, it would be just a common medical accident; the current situation is very unfavorable for them.

Cheng Ye, familiar with the Anglo-American legal system, even he feels that they’ve hit a brick wall this time; involving politics is never simple.

Cheng Ye continued to contact veterans in the legal field, as long as he could find similar medical dispute cases, he would have the confidence to argue in court.

Gu Kuangyuan made porridge for him, making sure he eats something no matter how busy he gets.

Cheng Ye hadn’t had a single day free since he arrived in the United States, she couldn’t help him with his work, so she learned to take care of his daily needs.

She didn’t understand how to do these things before, but she’s learning slowly now.

Cheng Ye finished his porridge and continued working, Gu Kuangyuan sat beside him flipping through old case files, hoping to find something useful.

To her, the case files were obscure and tedious, Gu Kuangyuan forced herself to stay focused for nearly an hour, but couldn’t resist sleepiness and leaned against Cheng Ye’s shoulder.

Cheng Ye turned to look at her, there were faint dark circles under her eyes, this period has really exhausted her.

He tenderly kissed her lips and lifted her up.

In a daze, she wrapped her arms around his neck, and when Cheng Ye laid her on the bed, she woke up.

She rubbed her eyes, "Did I fall asleep?"

"Yes, you’re tired, get some rest, don’t stay up with me."

Gu Kuangyuan sat up, "I’m not sleepy, I’ll stay with you."

Cheng Ye also got into bed, "I’m sleepy, let’s sleep together."

Gu Kuangyuan obediently lay in his arms, she didn’t want him staying up late all the time, it was too tiring.

Gu Kuangyuan soon fell asleep, but Cheng Ye’s mind remained clear.

He kept recalling the case files he had read and the evidence currently at hand, it felt like he was missing something important.

He just couldn’t remember.

It took Cheng Ye a long time to fall asleep, in the early hours they were awakened by the ringing of the phone.

Gu Kuangyuan reached out from under the covers to answer the phone, sleepily saying, "Hello."

Gu Jinxiu called Brother Cheng but heard his aunt’s voice, he said, "Auntie, are you and Brother Cheng sleeping?" Sometimes he doesn’t like to call her Aunt, so he calls her Auntie instead, she said calling her Aunt sounds old, Auntie sounds nicer.

Gu Kuangyuan was wide awake now, "Jinxiu, what do you need from Brother Cheng?"

Cheng Ye took the phone, "Jinxiu, it’s me."

Gu Kuangyuan lay on his chest listening, Gu Jinxiu asked, "Brother Cheng, when will Uncle Yue be back? Sister Xiao Yu is getting married! I can’t find him!"

Cheng Ye looked at the person in his arms, Gu Kuangyuan shook her head at him.

No one could know about Yue Xiaoyang’s injury.

Cheng Ye said, "The case is complicated, Xiaoyang can’t come back for now."

Gu Jinxiu was very anxious, "What should we do then? By the time Uncle Yue comes back, I’m afraid Sister Xiao Yu will be married."

Gu Kuangyuan knew, Xiaoyang had given up on the girl he loved, it wasn’t that he didn’t love her, it was that he couldn’t.

She understood Yue Xiaoyang’s feelings, nothing is more painful than being powerless.

Gu Kuangyuan said to Jinxiu, "Jinxiu, let the adults handle this, we must respect Xiaoyang’s decision."

"Auntie, are you saying Uncle Yue knows they’re getting married? Then why doesn’t he stop it? He told me before not to let Sister Xiao Yu be with anyone else."

Gu Kuangyuan said, "Jinxiu, there are many things beyond our control, sometimes... some difficulties are hard to explain."

"What difficulties does Uncle Yue have? Brother Cheng is so capable, isn’t there any case he can’t handle? I don’t understand."

Gu Kuangyuan talked to Jinxiu for a long time, telling him not to worry about Uncle Yue, Uncle Yue was already busy enough.

Gu Jinxiu hung up, even if Uncle Yue is busy, can’t he call Sister Xiao Yu and explain, to stop her from getting married?

He got angrier as he thought, "Uncle Yue, you’ll regret this, don’t say I didn’t try to help you!"

An Junxi and Gu Yikun arrived at the hotel, the engagement of their senior was a simple affair, inviting only close friends, not many people were present.

Gong Xiaoyu and Yu Zheng greeted guests at the entrance of the hall, Yu Zheng dressed in a sharp suit, looking handsome and elegant, while Gong Xiaoyu wore a long dress, standing beside Yu Zheng looking charming and delicate, a perfect match.

Many friends congratulated them, praising them as a match made in heaven, Gong Xiaoyu smiled, "Thank you for your blessings, please come in."

Only An Junxi could see the forced smile on her face.

She took the chance to walk to the window with her senior and asked, "Didn’t you sleep well last night? You don’t look so good."

Gong Xiaoyu pressed under her eye, "You can tell?"

"Don’t I know you? Today is a good day, don’t think too much."

Gong Xiaoyu disguised her emotions by drinking two sips of red wine, drinking too quickly and almost choking.

An Junxi handed her a tissue, "Senior..."

Tears welled up in Gong Xiaoyu’s eyes, she turned her back and dabbed at them with the tissue, "Jun Xi, I called him last night."

"Who, Yue Xiaoyang?"

"Yes, I told him I’m getting married soon, he said..."

Gong Xiaoyu shed more tears, unable to speak, she lowered her head and walked into the small side room.

An Junxi followed her in, closed the door, and urgently asked, "What did he say?"

Gong Xiaoyu cried on An Junxi’s shoulder, "Jun Xi, I’m so foolish, why did I have to embarrass myself so much!"

Recollecting the events of last night, the emotions she’d invested over the past three years seemed like a joke, she knew she shouldn’t have called him, but she couldn’t resist dialing that well-memorized number.

The phone rang for a long time before his voice came through, "It’s me."
