"Lanlan?" Shao's mother came in and saw that there was no one home. She couldn't help but frown. Wasn't Gu Lan on holiday today? Why wasn't she home?

"Madam, this chicken soup?" The butler followed behind Shao's mother with a thermos in his hand.

"Put it on the table first." Shao's mother said as she went up the stairs. When she saw that the door to Gu Lan's room was open, she walked over.

In fact, in Shao's mother's eyes, this was Shao Junhao and Gu Lan's room. However, she did not know that Shao Junhao had long since left this room and did not live with Gu Lan at all. The only thing that belonged to him in this room was to deal with her and Shao's father.

Pushing the door open and entering, Shao's mother saw Gu Lan lying on the bed. Her face was pale, but her cheeks were red, and her forehead was covered in sweat.

"Lanlan?" Shao's mother walked to the bedside and raised her hand to place it on Gu Lan's forehead. It was extremely hot. Shao's mother retracted her hand, turned around, and went to the door, shouting, "Wang Xing, quickly come up and send Lanlan to the hospital."

Then he returned to the bed to help Gu Lan up.

Startled by Shao's mother's actions, Gu Lan opened her eyes slightly and called out, "Mom."

"I'll send you to the hospital." Although Shao's mother did not like Gu Lan much, her heart softened when she saw her like this. She muttered, "She's so sick, yet she still doesn't want to go to the hospital," and helped Gu Lan up with the butler, Wang Xing.

"Mom." Shao Junhao was in a meeting when Shao's mother called him to the hospital. He frowned. "What's the hurry? I'm in a meeting."

Knowing that Shao's father and Shao's mother weren't sick, Shao Junhao didn't take the matter to heart at all.

"What is it?" Shao's mother glared at Shao Junhao, "Lanlan is sick and alone at home, and no one is taking care of her. Her fever is already at 39 degrees, almost 40 degrees! If I hadn't gone to bring her chicken soup, I don't know what would have happened!"

Shao's mother had specially made chicken soup to nourish Gu Lan's body so that when she got pregnant in the future, she would be able to carry a healthy, fat grandson. Who would have thought that she would see Gu Lan with a high fever?

However, Shao Junhao was her son. Although Shao's mother was a little angry, she let him go after saying a few words to him. She said to Shao Junhao: "Lanlan is lying inside right now. Go in and take a look."

Gu Lan had long since woken up and heard everything Shao's mother and Shao Junhao said. Even when Shao's mother called Shao Junhao to come to the hospital, she could guess Shao Junhao's answer on the other end of the phone.

She had never thought that Shao's mother would be so good to her. After all, Shao's mother had allowed her to be together with Shao Junhao in the first place. One was for the marriage, and the other was to separate Qu Xiao and Shao Junhao. Over the years, she had become used to Shao's mother's bias towards Shao Junhao.

But...

Gu Lan closed her eyes and felt a tall figure blocking the light.

She used to be a treasure in the hands of her parents. It was enough for her to reach this step for Shao Junhao.

She wanted a divorce!

Gu Lan suddenly opened her eyes and met Shao Junhao's. Shao Junhao frowned slightly. He felt that there was something different about the woman lying on the bed, but he couldn't tell what it was.

"You're awake?" Shao Junhao said lightly. "If you're sick, come to the hospital as soon as possible so that my mother and the others won't worry."

Gu Lan replied indifferently.

After losing all hope in her marriage, she had become much calmer and more indifferent than before. A trace of helplessness flashed across Gu Lan's eyes as she dealt with her relatives who knew that she was ill and in the hospital.

Since Gu Lan had just woken up and her fever had yet to completely subside, the people who came to see her did not stay for long. Shao Junhao was the last one to leave. He didn't know why, but even though her life and death had nothing to do with him, when he saw Gu Lan lying on the bed in such a weak state, he couldn't help but feel a trace of pity for her.

"Damn my heart!" Shao Junhao cursed and strode out of the ward.

Only Gu Lan was left in the ward.

Perhaps because she had slept too much before, Gu Lan could not fall asleep even if she closed her eyes. Instead, she simply opened her eyes and stared out the window in a daze.

Suddenly, footsteps could be heard coming from the ward, followed by a woman's voice, "I'm sorry, I came to the wrong ward." Gu Lan was still looking out the window and did not respond.

"Lanlan?" The woman did not leave the ward, instead, she walked in even more.

Hearing her name being called, Gu Lan turned her head and saw a familiar face. Although it had been many years, she had not forgotten this face, this person's name.

Even though her current appearance was different from a few years ago, becoming much more mature and more beautiful, Gu Lan was still able to recognize her at a glance.

"Qu Xiao."

"Lanlan! It's really you!" Qu Xiao's face was filled with surprise and joy as she suddenly hugged Gu Lan and said coquettishly, "Lanlan, I missed you so much when I was abroad all these years! You don't even know that when I first went abroad, my phone was stolen and I lost all my contact details. At that time, I couldn't come back, so I was so sad. "

Hearing this, Gu Lan was stunned. Not long after Qu Xiao left the country, she could no longer contact her. She thought that Qu Xiao had found out about her relationship with Shao Junhao, which was why she had cut off all contact with her. So it turned out that her phone had been stolen and she had lost contact?
