C9 Second Crossing Ghost Gate

Lin Ruo felt her face heat up, probably because the wine was something she had never touched before.

Therefore, she planned to walk out to enjoy the cold breeze and only call a taxi back to school when she felt more comfortable.

Gu Shen looked at his watch. There was still more than an hour before the afternoon meeting, so he said, "I'll send you off. There's still time."

Lin Ruo was still feeling upset, so she didn't refuse and obediently got on the car.

The girl at the side sat quietly and did not speak any weird words with him. He was not used to it and asked, "Why aren't you talking?"

"Say what?" the girl gasped back, resting her head on the back of her chair.

Gu Shen sensed a couple, parked the car by the roadside, and gently pulled over the girl's body.

"Lin Ruo?"

The girl weakly answered with a "hmm". Sometimes her breath was heavy and sometimes it was weak. Sometimes it was heavy as if her neck was strangled and other times it was weak as if she could die at any moment.

Her eyes were slightly closed, her eyebrows were furrowed into a knot, and her entire face was red.

Even her white arms had turned red.

"Gu Shen." The girl spoke with difficulty, her mouth glued to his. "Take me to the hospital."

Damn it!

When he hit the gas pedal to the bottom, he found a nearby hospital without stopping his whistle.

By the time they arrived at the hospital, the girl was unconscious. However, her breathing was getting heavier and heavier, as if she was unable to catch her breath.

He picked up the girl and ran all the way to the emergency room.

"I'm allergic. It's serious."

The man frowned. She clearly said that he didn't avoid her words, so was this also her method? Otherwise, how could he not know what kind of allergy he was suffering from?

Just as he was guessing, the doctor continued, "Luckily we sent them off in time. "If we delay it a bit more, it will become troublesome."

The doctor was tactful, but Gu Shen also knew that severe allergies were indeed fatal. She loved money as much as her life, so she wouldn't risk her life.

So you really don't know?

He loved money so much, yet he didn't love life at all. He didn't know how to take care of himself?

For some reason, when he thought of this, he felt extremely irritated.

"What did she eat at noon, or touch?" "We have to find out where it came from."

Gu Shen came back to his senses and told them everything he had to eat today.

Red wine steak, flowers on the table, dogs in the next room running over for a while, and the last dessert.

But he didn't know what she was allergic to.

He took out his cell phone and just dialed Hou Xiao's number. However, he felt that it wasn't appropriate and quickly hung up.

"What was the last contact?" the doctor said.

"Sweets, Mango Thousandlayer." Then he added, "She ate quite a lot."

"How about this, I'll go get some more blood for an allergen test." The doctor felt reassured as he replied.

The test results would take a few hours, so Gu Shen just sat by the girl's bed and waited.

The girl was gradually recovering from the hanging bottle. Her body was not as red and her breathing was steadier. However, she was thin and small. No matter how you looked at it, she looked like a fragile porcelain doll.

She lay there quietly with her eyes closed, bringing with her a feeling of peace and quiet.

He stared unblinkingly at the girl's small face until he was awakened by the ringing of his cell phone.

"Speak."

When the person on the other end of the line heard this murderous tone, he guessed that the CEO might really be pestered by some urgent matter. Otherwise, why would she sound so unhappy?

"Director Gu, the meeting this afternoon …"

Only now did the man remember …

He'd forgotten all about it, damn it.

However, after looking at the girl's sleeping face, he did not hesitate to decline the meeting. "Change of time."

"But Director Gu …"

Gu Shen did not want to hear any nonsense, so he hung up the phone.

When Lin Ruo woke up again, it was already past lunchtime.

When she saw the man standing there like a mountain, she opened her mouth and found her voice hoarse.

She opened her mouth and made a sound that even she could not believe, much less the man.

When the man saw her pained expression, he seemed to want to say something to her. He nervously looked at her and moved closer to her. "What's wrong?"

Lin Ruo really wished she could kick his face in her heart.

Her hoarse voice was squeezed out one word at a time: "Give, give, water, drink!"

The man came back to his senses. He felt a bit ashamed to see the girl working so hard, but he didn't show anything wrong on his face. He said calmly, "Alright, just you wait."

Seeing that he wasn't flustered at all, Lin Ruo swore that she had already greeted his ancestors for generations to come.

Soon, the man came back with a glass of water.

Seeing his clumsy appearance, Lin Ruo felt that she couldn't blame him.

After all, he had always been served by others. Since young, he had never experienced the hardships of the mortal world.

He probably had never served anyone before, and it would be too hard for him to take care of them now.

She might even be the first person he poured tea for!

Thinking of this, her mood improved a lot.

He was no longer angry!

"Director Gu, is this your first time serving someone?" Lin Ruo asked after she had drank some water and had recovered some.

Gu Shen was slightly surprised.

The woman's eyes were full of anticipation, so she naturally knew what she was thinking about.

However, he could not bear to disappoint the girl in this state, so he agreed. "Okay."

Sure enough, the girl's eyes lit up and the smile on her face became even wider. When paired with her bright white face, she looked like a blooming hibiscus.

He wouldn't tell her that when he was young, he had poured her a foot wash because of the homework his teacher had given him, so she had happily covered his face in saliva.

"Oh right, what happened to me?"

"Allergy." Gu Shen opened his mouth and looked at her reaction.

"Allergy?" Lin Ruo was stupefied.

For the first time in her life, she knew what she was allergic to.

However, what she had touched and eaten today were things she had touched and eaten before.

"Did you find any allergens?"

Gu Shen retracted his gaze. It seemed like she really didn't do it on purpose. It's just that she was such a money-loving person. Logically speaking, she also cared about her life.

"The results should arrive soon."

As soon as he said that, a nurse pushed open the door and came in to deliver the results form.

"Miss Lin, this is an allergy caused by the Mango Fruit. You'll have to avoid it in the future." the nurse advised gently. "If we were late today, we'd be in trouble."

So, she had once visited the gates of hell? But …

"That's not right, why was I fine when I ate before?" Lin Ruo said in a daze.

"Miss Lin, there usually won't be an allergic reaction the first time. The first time you ate a mango, your body's immune system was activated. The second time you ate it, the immune system defense was incorrect, causing an allergic reaction."

With that said, she understood. No wonder she was fine the last time she ate with Hou Xiao.

Wait! That's not right …

The first time she ate it was on the eve of her suicide, when she was 30 in her previous life …
