Gu Baisheng stopped outside the door for a while.
Their conversation was all about how Gu Changle defended her elder sister Gu Changge against injustice.
Gu Baisheng pondered over with eyes downward.
After Gu Cheng and his daughter ended their conversation, Gu Baisheng knocked on the door.
The knock interrupted what Gu Changle was about to say.
She turned around in frustration, "Who's it?"
"Dr. Bai, most likely." The Philipino maid answered beside.
Gu Changle, an adopted daughter, found that Dr. Bai came even more often than she did.
Moreover...
Her foster father, Gu Cheng, seemed to be satisfied with Dr. Bai.
Gu Cheng smiled, "Come in, please."
On hearing his permission, Gu Baisheng walked in.
Then she politely greeted Gu Changle.
Gu Changle greeted her as well in a ladylike manner, "How do you do, Dr. Bai?"
Gu Baisheng smiled and replied, "I'm fine, thank you."
"Gu Changle, you should go home first. Dr. Bai is here to give me a checkup."
Gu Cheng required Gu Changle to go home.
Gu Changle nodded permissively, "Okay. I will come here tomorrow."
"Good."
Gu Cheng was kind to his foster daughter, but Gu Baisheng knew clearly that his kindness was as thin as a layer of light frost.
And he treated his eldest daughter Gu Changge in a totally different way.
Gu Baisheng recalled that Gu Cheng had a deep but obscured expectation and indulgence towards his elder daughter.
It was difficult to recognize the affection between the rich and powerful families, such as the affection between Gu Cheng and his two daughters.
Gu Baisheng apologized after Gu Changle was away, "I'm sorry I'm late today, Mr. Gu."
Gu Cheng glanced at her with a slight smile, "It's normal for the young to be late. Anyone was fond of sleeping in."
Gu Baisheng knew he did not mean to blame her.
So she took out a sphygmomanometer and a thermometer to measure his blood pressure and temperature.
In that case, the Philipino maid was about to tell her that someone else had already done them.
Gu Cheng rolled up his sleeve and stretched out his elbow, however, before the maid would talk about it.
Seeing his behavior, the maid understood she'd better not say any word about it.
She stepped back quietly.
Gu Baisheng carefully took Gu Cheng's blood pressure and took it down. Then she took his temperature.
It would take five minutes to take the temperature.
Gu Cheng was bored, so he talked with Gu Baisheng, "Did you see Gu Changle before? She is my little daughter."
"Yes, on the newspaper."
Gu Baisheng answered honestly.
Gu Cheng had a few illegitimate children.
But none of them were admitted by the family. Instead, he adopted a daughter from an orphanage.
Everyone in Yuncheng was astonished about that.
But they dared say nothing. And every media praised Mr. Gu as a good man for charity.
However, Gu Baisheng had a different thought these days.
She did not regard Mr. Gu simply as a charitarian.
His adopted daughter Gu Changle was more than a young lady of the Gu Family.
"Which of my two daughters do you think has a better personality?"
Gu Cheng asked Gu Baisheng.
Gu Baisheng froze for a moment, "Well..."
Both of them were daughters of Gu Cheng.
Gu Cheng would not adopt Gu Changle if he did not like her.
"Why did he ask me this question at this time?" Thought Gu Baisheng.
What did he mean?
Gu Cheng realized that Gu Baisheng complicated his question.
He smiled, "You don't need to think too much. I'm only curious that how a stranger regards them."
Gu Baisheng got it.
She could not fudge about it.
So she pondered for a moment and said, "The elder sister was calm and deliberate, while Gu Changle was gentle and beautiful. Both of them had advantages."
"What about the shortage?"
Where there were strengths, there were bound to be weaknesses.
Gu Cheng winked at Gu Baisheng.
Nevertheless, Gu Baisheng was not willing to talk about it. She shook her head, "I had little contact with them, so now I can only find their strengths."
"Then you could get in more touch with them."
Gu Cheng added, "Changge was interested in medical science. You can communicate with each other if time permits."
Gu Baisheng asked subconsciously, "She majored in medicine?"
"No. She graduated in Finance."
Gu Baisheng nodded.
After all, the Gu Family was great. The only legitimate heir Gu Changge was paid much attention to.
Though ill as Gu Cheng was, he was not anxious to share his titles or possessions to his illegitimate children like other rich families would do. Obviously, he determined to leave all to his elder daughter.
And he had already planned everything well for his daughter.
No matter how much Gu Changge wanted to study medicine, she would not betray her father's expectations.
Putting in that way rendered the heiress impossible to learn her favorite major. She was ought to follow closely her father's expectations and plans.
It was pretty miserable.
"What does Gu Changle major in?"
Gu Baisheng asked Gu Cheng.
Gu Cheng smiled, "She learns French."
Gu Baisheng nodded, "No wonder she's so tender. Girls majoring in foreign languages seem to be good-natured."
"Really?"
"Good."
Gu Baisheng nodded.
Gu Cheng asked, "What about girls studying Finance?"
"Gu Changge seemed to be… calm and profound."
Gu Cheng smiled on hearing that.
The temperature was taken just right.
Gu Baisheng took out the thermometer to check the temperature.
"It's normal."
Gu Baisheng recorded while saying, "If we keep this up, we'll be able to do the surgery in no time."
Gu Cheng kept silent.
But he had a gentle smile on his face.
He seemed to be in a pretty good mood today.
Gu Baisheng was about to take the statistic to Song Shuang.
She found someone staring at her on the way out.
But she found no one when she looked back.
She frowned in strange. Having made sure there was nobody, she shook her head and went ahead.
Gu Baisheng left.
At this very moment, Gu Changge was out of the corner of the porch.
Her assistant noted that Gu Change peered straightly to the way Gu Baisheng left, "What's the matter, Miss Gu?"
"Is there anything particular you find in her?"
Gu Changge asked her assistant.
The assistant stared at Gu Baisheng's figure carefully.
"Nothing special," the assistant shook her head.
"There must be something special on her which we haven't yet found out," Gu Changge looked ahead thoughtfully, "My dad wouldn't require me to contact an average person."
...
Gu Baisheng handed the statistic to Song Shuang.
Shao Tianze was astonished, “Did Uncle Gu take the checkup again?”
"Again?"
Shao Tianze did not watch his language, but Gu Baisheng got what he meant, "Mr. Gu had already taken the temperature and blood pressure before?"
"Yes," Song Shuang answered, "Half an hour before you got here, someone had gotten his statistic of the temperature and blood pressure to me."
"Isn't that what I'm supposed to do?"
Gu Baisheng asked.
Song Shuang replied, "I guessed you would be late, so I sent another person to do this."
"I'm late because..."
Gu Baisheng was in such a shame that she almost popped out what Song Shuang did last night.
But Shao Tianze was by their side.
She could not say exactly what happened, so she transferred the topic in a scarlet blush, “Because I had a nightmare last night!”
Shao Tianze was clever enough to guess the real matter.
He smiled at Song Shuang, ‘“Dr. Song, please be early for the afternoon meeting. I'm off.”
Song Shuang nodded.
Shao Tianze smiled at Gu Baisheng and then left Song Shuang's office.
Once Shao Tianze was gone, Gu Baisheng blushed more scarlet.
Her face was still burning at the thought of their last night.
The guy said he wasn't gonna check.
But last night, all of sudden...
She felt a little ashamed about the reminiscence.
But Song Shuang was so calm as if nothing had happened.
Gu Baisheng could not keep staring at him with a red face.
She said, "I'm off to work!"
And then she turned out of Song Shuang's office.
Song Shuang looked at her back away with a little anger.
He shook his head helplessly.
No matter how many years went by, her fondness for blushing did not change.
But that was okay. He liked everything about her.
Gu Baisheng trotted out of his office.
Just around the corner of the porn. Bang! She ran into a solid chest wall.
And the best coincidence was that she hit right on his chin with her forehead.
The man was unprepared. He covered up his poor chin with his hand.
Gu Baisheng hurried up to apologize, "I'm sorry. I'm not careful..."
She did not finish saying the "careful".
And surprisingly, Gu Baisheng found it was Su Yuanyi that she collided head-on with.
Su Yuanyi stared at her with his slightly red chin, "You nearly broke my jaw."
"I'm so sorry."
Gu Baisheng hurriedly apologized.
She realized Su Yuanyi was holding his chin. She said in worry, "Please put your hand down so I can check how badly it hurts."
"You're not a steelhead. You certainly didn't break my jaw, but an apology was not enough."
Gu Baisheng was unsure, "You... You want to blackmail me?"
Su Yuanyi almost burst into laughter. He said helplessly, "Sure. I'm going to blackmail you."
"I have little money!"
Gu Baisheng claimed.
Su Yuanyi found her serious look interesting, "Then I will blackmail you less."
"What on earth do you want?"
Gu Baisheng asked him.
Su Yuanyi said, "A cup of coffee. Is it blackmail?"
Gu Baisheng agreed, "No. It's on me."
It was reasonable to treat him to a cup of coffee.
