Two hours later, Gu Wei was finally wheeled out.
The bullet had gone deep but fortunately, it didn't hit any vital organs. However, it was difficult to extract, and they needed to monitor him in the OR until the anesthesia wore off before they could move him.
By then, Gu Wei had already woken up. The doctor specifically observed his consciousness and determined that his brain was fine; it was just his abdominal injury that would need more time to heal.
When Gu Wei was wheeled out, he saw Su Meixi waiting at the door; he reached out and tightly grasped her hand.
"Gu Wei..." Su Meixi couldn't speak; she just cried upon seeing him.
It was Gu Wei who comforted her, his voice hoarse, he forced out, "From now on, you'll have to take care of me."
"I will, I will definitely take good care of you," she continued crying.
Gu Wei was wheeled into the VIP ward, and Su Meixi and Zhou Yuan followed to take care of him.
Gu Cheng then went to see Qiu Yurou.
