Chapter 3: Love at First Sight
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
That day, Gu Anbao fell in love.
Yes… It was love at first sight.
The place he had held her was still warm, and her brain seemed to have stopped working.
“Thank… Thank you.” She finally found her voice and softly thanked the man who had helped her up. She suddenly realized that her expression hadn’t been perfect, thus she hurriedly revealed her sweetest and most adorable smile and tweaked her tone slightly. “Thank you very much.”
The other party did not seem to notice the goodwill of the cute girl, only nodding his head nonchalantly as he picked up the honey mandarin oranges that had fallen to the floor, and placed them into her environmentally friendly bag.
“Next time, don’t stand in the middle of the road.” With that, he turned around and returned to his car and started the engine.
What a considerate man…
Not only had he helped her up from her fall, but he had also picked up the oranges for her and warned her not to stand in the middle of the road…
Gu Anbao thought, enamored.
When Gu Anqi returned, she noticed her little sister was blushing a deep red while staring at someone else’s car.
When she glanced at the car she was staring at, wow…
Such an extravagant and expensive car. It was no wonder that her sister would look at it several more times than necessary.
Eh?
Her sister didn’t know much about cars, right?
“Why are you spacing out?” Gu Anqi patted her shoulders from behind.
When Gu Anbao turned around, Gu Anqi finally noticed the stain on her sister’s cuffs and knees. Shocked, she asked, “How did this happen? Did you fall? Ah… I just went to park the car and this happened… Please be careful…”
Gu Anqi’s heart ached. Retrieving a napkin from her bag, she wiped her little sister’s knees. “They are all red… Fortunately, you didn’t scrape them.”
“Sis,” Gu Anbao asked as she noticed that the car was about to leave the parking lot, “Do you know who that is?”
Gu Anbao’s voice sounded a little airy. She wasn’t hoping to get an answer, but she couldn’t help but ask her sister.
Unbelievably, Gu Anqi really did know.
“It is probably Chen Yuheng.”
Huh?
Gu Anbao stared blankly at her older sister.
Who… did she say he was?
Gu Anqi took the bag from her sister and held her hand as they walked toward the elevator. On their way, she replied, “You don’t recognize him? He is the founder of RK. This is the internal parking lot for RK Corporation. There are no more than three people in the entire RK corporation that can afford such a car.”
There were two other people?
Before Gu Anbao could even ask anything, she was pushed into the elevator by her sister.
There were many people in the lift, thus the petite little Gu Anbao was guarded by her 1.7 meters tall sister.
Her claustrophobia made the air seemed rather turbid.
This was RK, RK AI Technology Corporation.
RK had a reputation for having the most advanced technological standards and AI robot products. But in actuality, RK started out as a medical treatment technology company. The affiliated hospital under it possessed the best technology and medical facilities in the country. Therefore, there were countless patients entering and leaving the hospital.
In the lift, some people were here to visit patients while some were here seeking treatment.
Using her gaze, Gu Anqi signaled to Gu Anbao to put on her mask.
Gu Anbao initially wanted to say that she was alright. But as she saw the worry in her sister’s eyes, she silently took out the mask she had brought with her and put it on…
The lift began to travel up.
RK’s company comprised of two buildings, named block A and B. Block A was where the offices and research zones were. Block B was the affiliated hospital under RK Corporation’s name, and it was where Gu Anbao was right now.
She was here today to be hospitalized.
Due to her Intrinsic heart disease. Her condition was one that was extremely grave.
She heard that patients with such an illness didn’t live for long…
Her parents had been worried sick over her illness. They had found several doctors locally and overseas, but all of their verdicts were the same. And it was that her heart was simply too weak and not suitable for any kind of medical treatment.
Unless she was given a healthy heart transplant. If not, there wouldn’t be a miracle.
Looking for a healthy heart that was also compatible with her body was not easy.
After waiting for a long time, this heart had finally appeared.
As Gu Anqi sent her sister to the best ward, she inspected the surroundings of the room.
The cleanliness, tidiness, and temperature of the room were controlled by an AI system.
Gu Anqi was very pleased.
“Are you scared?” Gu Anqi caressed the crown of her sister’s head.
“No.” Gu Anbao shook her head gently as she said, “Just… a little nervous.
Of course, one would definitely feel some fear, more or less.
However, she felt that her sister, dad, and mom seemed to be more afraid than her. It was a heart transplant after all…
When she thought about how her own heart was going to be removed and replaced with someone else’s heart, she couldn’t help but feel some dread.
She couldn’t bear to let her family worry even more. With the words on the tip of her tongue, her fear had turned into nervousness…
Gu Anqi pulled her sister into her embrace and lightly patted her back. “We will be here for you all the way, don’t worry.”
“Yes.”
A few days of preparation were needed before the operation. Gu Anbao would stay in the hospital throughout this period.
The highest grade ward had a video installation, allowing patients to video chat with their families. Also, there were nurse robots allocated to them, and their design was rational and human-like. Gu Anqi accompanied her sister and researched seriously on the different facilities available in the ward and how to use them. She then began her lengthy reminder…
“You have to eat all three meals on time. Do not be picky with your food. You have to tell Mom, Dad, and me what you had for your meals every day. Do not go downstairs if you don’t have to. If you need to buy anything, just let the robot know. There will be someone at the front desk who will send your things over. If you want to take a stroll, you can go to the sky garden on level 32. Do not go downstairs as the air quality isn’t good, with all the exhaust fumes from the cars and what not… I will come by tomorrow afternoon to visit you again, Mom will be here tonight…”
Gu Anbao nodded her head cooperatively. When she heard that their mom was coming over, she hurriedly shook her head. “It’s alright, I am doing well here. Dad hasn’t been feeling too well recently; Mom should stay home and take care of him…”
Their Dad had been feeling anxious over some company matters, thus his blood level had been a little high… Mom needed to take care of Dad, and her sister needed to help run the company on their Dad’s behalf. Everyone was extremely busy… At a time like this, all she could do was to be obedient and not let them worry too much about her.
“I am fine on my own. I can watch television and surf the Internet, all three meals are delivered to me as well. Everything will be fine. Sis, advice Mom a little and tell her not to run about so much. What if she tires herself out?…”
When Gu Anqi heard this, she was a little fretful. They had finally found a suitable heart donor, which should be something to be elated about. However, the company had recently encountered issues in its overseas business. Therefore, their dad had fallen sick because of the stress…
Gu Anqi let out a sigh as she caressed her sister’s head. “Alright, I will let Mom know. However, you have to keep in contact with her at night. Remember that, ok?”
“Mm, mm.” Gu Anbao nodded her head.
As she waited for Gu Anqi to finally leave, Gu Anbao let out a soft sigh of relief…
She really hoped… that this body of hers could become healthy again. Being handled like a fragile object in her family’s hands sometimes made her feel… bad…
Gu Anbao looked at the small nurse robot standing obediently at the side of the door. It had a height that reached her chest, a round head, and a barrel body, making it look like a huge Bluetooth case. A ring of gentle blue light circled its head, making it look extremely adorable.
She blinked and stared at the robot as she murmured, “Say… Do you think the operation will be successful?”
