Chapter 1528: 1528. Is that Qiaoxu from the Medical Department?
"Momo, did you hear what the doctor said? Just a few more days of rest, and you’ll be able to leave the hospital."
His wide palm gently stroked her soft, smooth long hair.
Although she had been unconscious for a long time, the nurse Wang Ma that Qiaoxu had hired took good care of her.
She would wipe her body every day and wash her hair twice a week.
So, even though Xia Yumo had just woken up, she didn’t have that sticky feeling that comes with lying in bed for a long time.
Gu Junhang noticed a look of confusion on Xia Yumo’s face and felt a little worried, "Momo, what’s wrong with you?"
Only then did he notice that Xia Yumo had been silent since she awoke, and the way she looked at him wasn’t unfamiliar, but it lacked a natural intimacy. Instead... there was some awkwardness.
Gu Junhang’s heart suddenly ached.
Why did Momo meet his eyes with bewilderment and awkwardness? Why did she feel awkward?
"Momo?"
Suppressing his uneasiness, he looked at the silent Xia Yumo and called her again.
It took some time for him to hear Xia Yumo’s low voice, which carried a hint of uncertainty, "Gu... Senior Gu?"
Gu Junhang’s heart shattered in a split second when Xia Yumo called him "Senior Gu."
His usually stoic face showed a clear shock at this moment. A long time later, he finally managed to find his voice again, "Momo, what did you call me?"
If it had been any other time, he might have thought she was playfully calling him that, but her current behavior didn’t seem like she was joking with him. Instead... she was really calling him Senior Gu.
Afterward, when she looked at him, she still seemed somewhat uneasy and even... composed and awkward.
"Gu... Senior Gu?"
Xia Yumo saw him asking and cautiously repeated it again.
Seeing Gu Junhang’s displeasure, she lowered her voice some more, as if he didn’t like her calling him by this title.
But... wasn’t that how other people called him?
She saw that after she repeated the title, Gu Junhang’s eyes dimmed, and he seemed somewhat upset.
His smile on his face had already faded and became even lighter at this moment.
A moment later, Gu Junhang spoke again:
"You just woke up, and your body is still weak. Lie down and rest for a while. I will call Qiaoxu and tell her that you are awake."
As he raised his hand to gently rub her head, he saw Xia Yumo instinctively dodging his advances, as if she didn’t expect Gu Junhang to make such a move. A mix of surprise and disbelief appeared in her eyes.
Only then did she remember that when she had just woken up, Gu Junhang didn’t hesitate to make these intimate gestures toward her. Back then, she had just awakened, and her mind was still fuzzy. Upon opening her eyes and seeing the cold and detached man looking at her with such unprecedented tenderness and affection, she was startled and forgot to think.
So it was only now that she realized it.
Gu Junhang’s hand, which was about to touch her head, hung in mid-air due to Xia Yumo’s instinctive avoidance. His eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.
After a moment of stiffness, he seemed to sigh softly, his hand still landed on the top of her head, and he said in a muted voice:
"Rest well."
He was about to get up and leave when he heard Xia Yumo’s puzzled voice:
"Qiaoxu?"
She hesitated and looked at Gu Junhang, then asked, "The Qiaoxu from the Medical Department?"
