"Is he okay?" Gu Yuxuan asked.
"He was discharged", Ehuang said, trying not to sound too harsh.
Gu Yuxuan tried lifting himself, but Meng Xian stopped him.
"You shouldn't move, Mr Gu".
"Did something happen?" Gu Yuxuan asked. "Why do you sound so distant?"
Ehuang looked at him for a second before saying, "We haven't seen him since getting here. We only knew he had been admitted. Sorry Gu Yuxuan, we should've gone to see him earlier."
"Where's he now?" Gu Yuxuan asked.
"He probably went back home."
Gu Yuxuan turned his gaze to the window. The sudden ache on his heart wasn't because of his wound, but because the person he wanted to see wasn't there.
With his long and steady breath he closed his eyes and said, "Lingling, please confirm with the detective about our meeting and ask him to come to the hospital."
"I'll do it now", Lingling said and walked out.
