Heartless Sister-in-law, Yan Shu's Awakening

Yan Shu hung up on Gu Yucheng.

Bo Su drove his Mercedes-Benz over. An hour later, Bo Su and Yan Shu arrived at a resettlement building.

Bo Su looked at the run-down old neighborhood, where the garbage in the trash room was emitting a foul odor. The surface of the limestone pavement was covered in dirt and stains. Bo Su, who had OCD, suddenly felt nauseous and nauseous.

Yan Shu turned around and looked at Bo Su. "Why don't you wait for me in the car?"

Bo Su nodded. "Yes."

As soon as Yan Shu left, he quickly got into the car and closed the window. It took him quite a while to suppress the nausea.

There was no elevator in the old neighborhood so Yan Shu had to run up the stairwell. Bo Su looked at her intently through the car window and a gentle smile appeared in his eyes.

Yan Shu climbed the stairs and reached the seventh floor, which is the top floor. Then, she stood in front of Room 701 and knocked on the door. After knocking for a long time, the younger sister of the Gu family finally ran over to open the door. When she saw Yan Shu, Gu Xue complained, "Sister Yan Shu, why did you take so long to come?"

"I'm here to pick up the things I left at your house." Yan Shu knew that Gu Xue had misunderstood her purpose for coming and went straight to the point.

Gu Xue was stunned. "But I heard my brother say that you are here to bring my mother to the doctor."

Yan Shu said coldly, "I'm just a psychiatrist. I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do about your mother's illness."

Gu Xue was very unhappy. "My brother broke up with you, and now you are turning your back on him."

She chattered on without pausing, "My brother has never moved in with you before. Besides, he had no intention of hiding his love for my sister-in-law from you. Knowing that you were infatuated with him, he didn't want to hurt you, so he kept putting off telling you the truth. Do you have to be so petty?"

Yan Shu's face turned ashen. From what Gu Xue just said, she had long known about her brother's betrayal. Yet, Gu Xue chose to keep it a secret from her and had been taking advantage of her care and support over the past year.

Yan Shu ignored Gu Xue and walked past her, heading straight into the study. She started moving her precious belongings out of the room.

Gu Xue suddenly tugged at Yan Shu. "Sister Yan Shu, since you're here, why don't you send my mother to the hospital?"

Yan Shu no longer wanted to be the free nanny at the beck and call of the Gu family. Filled with anger, she pushed Gu Xue away and firmly stated, "It's not along the way."

"You're a doctor. How can a doctor leave someone in the lurch?"

Yan Shu stopped in her tracks. Her professional ethics did not allow her to ignore the patients around her. As a doctor, it was her duty to alleviate their suffering, even if the person was a death row inmate, they still had the right to seek medical treatment.

Yan Shu retracted her foot. "Where's your mother?"

Gu Xue pushed open the door of the master bedroom. Through the half-open door, Yan Shu saw Mrs. Gu sitting on the bed. Her face was sallow and thin, with a somewhat vacant expression. The floor beneath her was wet—it looked like she had just experienced urinary incontinence. It was evident that her condition was far from normal.

Driven by her compassion as a doctor, Yan Shu put aside her personal grievances and rushed into the room. She conducted a series of examinations on Gu's mother, checking her pupils, heart rate, and pulse. Finally, in a state of agitation, she asked Gu Xue in anger, "Your mother is in critical condition. Why didn't you take her to the hospital earlier?"

Gu Xue said in panic, "I'm not a doctor. How would I know that my mother's situation is critical? She was fine yesterday."

"Sister Yan Shu, what do you think we should do?" Gu Xue was still a freshman who had just entered university. She had never encountered anything like this before and was panicking. The unyielding spirit she had shown earlier had vanished completely.

Yan Shu said coldly, "Ask your brother."

Gu Xue quickly picked up her phone and called Gu Yucheng. After saying a few words, Gu Yucheng asked her to pass the phone to Yan Shu.

Yan Shu didn't want to answer the call but Gu Xue stuffed the phone into her arms.

"Yan Shu, my sister is still young. How can she make the decision for such a big matter? You have full authority to make the decision for me. I believe you can help my mother get through this."

Yan Shu was so angry that she laughed. "Gu Yucheng, did I f*cking dig up your ancestral grave in my previous life? I have no obligation to help you."

Gu Yucheng lowered his head and coaxed, "Yan Shu, I know I've let you down. But you're a doctor, and it goes against the oath of a physician to turn a blind eye to someone in need."

Yan Shu gritted his teeth in anger. "Gu Yucheng, you're shameless."

Half an hour later.

Bo Su saw Yan Shu carrying an old lady down the stairs from afar and immediately got out of the car.

He ran over quickly and shifted Mrs. Gu onto his back. "Shushu, let me do it."

When Gu Xue saw Bo Su, she was stunned by his noble temperament and devilish good looks. When she saw the Mercedes-Benz that was worth almost seven figures, Gu Xue's eyes lit up.

"Sister Yan Shu, who is this? He looks very rich. Is he single?"

Yan Shu ignored her and eagerly opened the door for Bo Su so that he could place the old lady in the back of the car.

Right after, Bo Su got into the driver's seat. Yan Shu was going to sit in the front passenger seat, but Gu Xue beat her to it.

"Sister Yan Shu, I get carsick. Can I sit in the front?" Gu Xue asked coquettishly.

Yan Shu was stunned. She had never heard of Gu Xue getting carsick.

"That's my wife's designated seat." As soon as Gu Xue sat down, she was interrupted by Bo Su's cold voice.

Gu Xue got out of the front passenger seat with a red face and reluctantly sat herself down in the back seat.

But when she saw Yan Shu sitting in the front passenger seat, she was stunned.

"Why does she get to sit there then?" she muttered to herself.

Unfortunately, both Yan Shu and Bo Su were tight-lipped individuals and did not respond to her.

At the hospital.

Yan Shu took advantage of her professional position to apply for expedited assistance for Gu Yucheng's mother. However, when it was time to make payment, Gu Xue did not move to take action at all.

Yan Shu threw the payment slip to her. "Go and pay the bill."

Gu Xue was dumbfounded. "I don't have money. Sister Yan Shu, why don't you just help me with this as well…"

Out of habit, Yan Shu took out a bank card and was about to hand it to Gu Xue when Bo Su stopped her. His cold and stern voice gave off a strong sense of oppression. "If you don't have the money, look for your brother. Yan Shu's money didn't come from nowhere. You're not related to her, so what right do you have to guilt-trip her? This is the best we can do to help. Shushu, let's go."

Gu Xue was so embarrassed that she wanted to hide.

When Bo Su and Yan Shu walked out of the hospital, the sky was scorching hot. Bo Su received a call from the company at the last minute and looked at Yan Shu apologetically. "Shushu, the chairman suddenly came to visit. I'm very sorry. I have to go to the office."

Yan Shu, who was also a 'corporate slave', understood the helplessness of employees being subjected to a company's rules and regulations. She waved at him magnanimously and urged, "Don't worry about me. Go to the office quickly. We'll contact each other by phone later."

Bo Su stuffed the car key into Yan Shu's hand. "Take my car back. I'll pick you up later and bring you back to our house."

With that, Bo Su walked quickly towards the bus stop across the road.

Yan Shu looked at Bo Su in a daze. When she saw his hunched and tall figure getting into the crowded bus, she felt a strange emotion in her heart.
