Drama Queen Reborn as a Top Student!-Chapter 908 - 430: Lies and Redemption

Gu Bichen went on a hunger strike for five days, lying motionless on the bed.

Madam Gu was so frightened that she rushed him to the hospital overnight.

After putting him on an IV drip and administering nutritional fluids, Gu Bichen fell into a deep sleep.

Madam Gu sighed repeatedly, "What kind of misfortune has befallen our Gu family?"

Chen Feng also sighed, "This child is so stubborn, the more you oppose him, the more he fixates on his ideas. Maybe we should try a different approach?"

Madam Gu understood her meaning, and although unwilling, realized there was only one way left now, since Gu Bichen was her only grandson.

The child had seen through her emotions, which is why he dared to act so recklessly. She was both heartbroken and disappointed.

Children and grandchildren are a lifelong debt.

Sunlight penetrated the glass, spilling its first ray, as the dust danced in the air like mischievous little fairies.

The boy on the hospital bed slowly opened his eyes.

Chen Feng, keeping vigil beside the bed, jumped up joyfully: "Young Master, you finally woke up. Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? I’ll call the doctor right now."

After another round of examinations to ensure everything was alright, the doctors and nurses retreated like the tide, and the ward returned to quiet.

Chen Feng helped Madam Gu out of the single resting room inside, and upon seeing Madam Gu’s increasingly graying temples, Gu Bichen felt deeply guilty.

"Grandma... I’m sorry."

Madam Gu held his hand lovingly, "Grandma was wrong, didn’t consider your feelings. After this event, Grandma has come to terms with things. I don’t care about the Yu family or the Yang family, as long as my grandson is happy. Grandma won’t oppose you, but you must remember not to let your studies fall behind; you must improve your grades. That’s Grandma’s only condition."

Gu Bichen was momentarily stunned, then his eyes instantly reddened, choking up as he said, "I understand, Grandma, I won’t disgrace the Gu family."

"Grandma knows you’re always a good child. You must have your reasons for doing this, and Grandma is waiting for the day you’ll tell her willingly."

Looking at the trusting and loving old lady before him, Gu Bichen felt immense pain and struggle within. Yet he knew this was a path with no return.

Forever burying the truth was for the good of the Gu family, and for the old lady’s sake.

By doing this, he was saving the Gu family.

After seeing that Gu Bichen was alright, Madam Gu went home to rest, as she was too old to endure any longer.

Before Chen Feng saw her off, he returned his phone.

Gu Bichen powered on his phone, finding over twenty missed calls, all from Yu Ruohuan.

All the WeChat messages were also sent by her.

Gu Bichen frowned and dialed back, but there was no answer.

Gu Bichen slowly got out of bed, still quite weak. After gradually adapting, he walked out of the ward.

The bodyguard at the door immediately said, "Young Master, where are you going?"

Gu Bichen said weakly, "To visit a friend. She’s also hospitalized here."

The bodyguard followed him step by step, and Gu Bichen frowned, saying coldly, "Don’t follow me."

Following his memory, Gu Bichen found the building where Yu Ruohuan was hospitalized. While waiting for the elevator, he overheard two nurses talking quietly.

"Pitiful people indeed have their hateful aspects. I used to feel sorry for her, being so young and having a terminal illness. Now I realize how silly I was. She’s a rich heiress, with endless wealth, paying over a million a week for life-saving injections without batting an eye."

The other nurse cautiously looked around and whispered, "Her surname is Yu, as in Yu Meiren’s Yu. Think about how many are named Yu in Jingzhou?"

The nurse covered her mouth in disbelief, "Oh my... "

"Alright, let’s not talk too much outside. Be careful about what you say."

They stepped into the neighboring elevator.

Gu Bichen frowned. Terminal illness? Million-dollar life-saving injections? Yu Meiren’s Yu?

Frowning deeply, he entered the elevator lost in thought.

The top floor, the VIP ward area, was very quiet, starkly contrasting the bustling general ward area.

The bodyguard at the ward door saw Gu Bichen and called out Young Master Gu, but didn’t allow him to enter.

"Sorry, Young Master Gu, the young lady is undergoing treatment. Please wait for a moment."

Without asking anything, Gu Bichen sat down on the chair outside the ward to wait.

During this waiting time, Gu Bichen gathered all the clues about Yu Ruohuan’s illness in his mind and eventually came to an unbelievable conclusion.

The entire revelation left him trembling with shock.

Taking a deep breath, he forced himself to calm down. This was just his one-sided speculation, and it still needed to be verified.
