Chapter 895: Who Says I Can’t Take Part in the Competition?

Gu Mang turned her gaze to Gu Si when she sensed his hesitation to speak, but the latter smiled and changed the topic abruptly, saying, “I’ll go to the canteen and get you some breakfast.”

Her eyes darkened slightly. She could tell that her brother was hiding something from her, which was a first. Did something happen last night?

But since Gu Si refused to say anything, she did not press the issue. She merely nodded and secretly planned to ask Jiangsui about it instead. After Gu Si left and shut the ward’s door behind him, Gu Mang sat on the bed for a while longer before getting out to go to the bathroom.

Outside, Gu Si had just reached the lift landing when the doors to one of the lifts opened right in front of him to reveal Old Master Bai, Elder Bai, and Bai Sui.

“Grandpa?” He called out in surprise as the wheels in his head started turning. I knew that Grandpa stayed in the hospital last night, but I didn’t want to disturb his rest as it was quite late when I returned. It’s still pretty early in the morning now, but seeing that he’s already gone out and come back, he must have woken up really early. But why did he take Bai Sui with him?

When Old Master Bai saw Gu Si, he walked out of the lift and asked worriedly, “How’s your sister, Gu Si?”

“Ah. She’s awake so I’m going to get her some breakfast now,” answered Gu Si as he collected his thoughts.

Bai Sui curled his fingers slightly as he turned to glance towards Gu Mang’s ward.

“That’s good to hear.” Old Master Bai sighed in relief. “You don’t need to go get breakfast. Your uncle and aunt are bringing a special nutritious meal for her. They’re currently on their way here.”

“Okay. I’ll go wash my face, then.”

...

Due to the seriousness of what happened at the Leng residence, the medical competition was put on hold for two days.

That morning, Yang Tianming brought the team of students over to visit Gu Mang while Bai Zhang and his wife brought their two children. Both parties ran into each other at the hospital’s entrance and it was only when they arrived on the 32nd floor that they realized they were all here to see Gu Mang.

Upon being let in, they sat in the ward, their combined gifts forming a small pile of fruit baskets and gifts in the corner. The ward was designed to be more comfortable and spacious than a hotel room. Even with so many people in the ward, it did not seem cramped at all.

Butler Bai placed an insulated bento box that contained food and soup that were highly nutritious in front of Gu Mang.

Old Master Bai nervously looked at Gu Mang’s right hand, which was in a cast. “How do you feel? Take some painkillers if your hand hurts.”

“It’s alright.” Gu Mang gave her usual answer.

Qin Yaozhi’s eyes were a little red. In her eyes, Gu Mang was akin to an omnipotent figure. She had never seen Gu Mang get hurt before but she was now in the hospital for such a serious hand injury. Anger churned within her when she remembered that Leng Xuan was the one behind the incident. She did not want to spoil everyone’s mood since they were all here to visit Gu Mang, so she suppressed her anger and chose to keep silent.

She took out a large plastic bag that was filled with sweets and dried fruits without their bulky packaging and passed it to Gu Mang. “I brought these for you, Sister Mang. They’re your favorites.”

“Thank you,” said Gu Mang as she took the bag from her.

“No need to stand on ceremony with me.” Qin Yaozhi sat back down. “If you want to play games, I’ll play with you.”

She had seen Gu Mang play games with a single hand before. She was so skilled that she could play with her left or right hand.

While they accompanied Gu Mang inside, Jiangsui returned from the canteen holding two meat buns in his hands. He looked at Bai Qingqing and Bai Sui, who were standing outside the ward. “Have you guys eaten? Do you want to go get some food from the canteen?”

Bai Qingqing smiled and politely replied, “We just ate.”

A doctor happened to bring Gu Mang’s medicine over right then. Bai Sui walked toward him. “Just give it to me.”

Since it was just medicine to go along with breakfast for that day, it did not matter who passed it to Gu Mang. The doctor thus handed it to Bai Sui and reminded him, “Make sure she takes it after her meal.”

Bai Sui nodded, thanked the doctor, and then turned to enter the ward.

Yang Tianming was currently telling Gu Mang about the competition. “The organizer called me this morning and said that since you’re unable to continue to take part in the competition, they will remove your name from the team roster. Your score won’t be reflected in the team’s score.”

Although the competition was postponed for two days, Gu Mang needed at least one month to recover from her hand injury. There was no way it could heal just in time for the competition.

The mention of this matter made everyone fall silent.

Yang Tianming had no idea how Gu Mang’s injury would affect the competition, so he could not help but find it strange that the others were looking so somber. Given Gu Mang’s status on Jijing Island, it doesn’t really matter whether she takes part in the competition or not, right? It’s just regrettable that she can’t join us for the final round.

Gu Mang propped her arm up on the table, her spoon dangling from her left hand. She looked up. “Who says I can’t take part in the competition?”
