The room's door was wide open.
Therefore, when Li Tingxuan came up with Mother Hua, standing at the doorway, he could see inside at a glance.
Mother Hua said softly to Li Tingxuan: "Doctor Gu is treating Third Brother; it's not good to disturb. Tingxuan, do you want to wait here, or...?"
"Mother-in-law, I will wait here. Don't worry, I won't go in or make a sound to disturb," Li Tingxuan said. But his gaze, the first time he looked in, fell on Gu Jia Ning, deeply stuck, unable to move away.
Mother Hua: "...Okay."
However, because Mother Hua had other things to do, and she was also reassured about Gu Jia Ning's treatment, she didn't wait there with Li Tingxuan and left after a while.
At this time, only Li Tingxuan was waiting at the door.
His gaze was also deeply fixed on Gu Jia Ning.
From his angle, he could only see Gu Jia Ning and Hua Zhenrong's profiles.
Even so, at a glance he recognized the girl in the room—the girl from his dream, the female doctor who gave him redemption and rebirth, the young woman he had deeply placed in his heart.
He had finally found her.
At this moment, Li Tingxuan felt his usually quiet heart beating wildly—a feeling he had never experienced in reality.
At that moment, for some reason, Li Tingxuan's eyes were red, and he felt like his eyes were suddenly filled with hot tears.
Gu Jia Ning's perception was quite sharp; she noticed it almost as soon as there was a movement at the door.
However, she didn't turn her head to look, but continued to treat Hua Zhenrong.
Later, she could also feel a gaze falling on her.
Even though she didn't turn to look, she could still feel the heat of that gaze.
Was it a member of the Hua Family?
It shouldn't be possible.
Out of curiosity, Gu Jia Ning still turned her head to look.
With this turn of her head, her gaze instantly met Li Tingxuan's.
Li Tingxuan finally saw clearly in reality the girl's appearance he hadn't seen clearly in his dream.
Yes, she should look like this.
So beautiful, unrealistically beautiful, like an angel.
Yet she was truly standing before him.
No one could understand Li Tingxuan's feelings at this moment—the excitement, the joy.
Li Tingxuan's lips moved; he seemed to want to say something, but he had too much to say and didn't know where to begin.
He even had the urge to rush over and hug her, but he still held back.
At this moment, he was a little timid.
His first time being timid in his life.
Therefore, timid as he was, he only dared to nod gently at Gu Jia Ning when she looked over.
On this side, when Gu Jia Ning turned her head to look, at first glance, her eyes lit up slightly.
He was a handsome young man.
Moreover, this type—gentle and refined, like a courteous gentleman, with a noble temperament—perfectly matched Gu Jia Ning's aesthetic.
This young man was of the same type as Wen Zhuqing in appearance.
However, this young man was definitely a higher-spec version of Wen Zhuqing.
Gu Jia Ning thought that in her previous life, if she hadn't met Wen Zhuqing but had met this young man first, she would have definitely pursued this young man instead of the lower-spec Wen Zhuqing.
However, that was a matter of her past life.
In her past life, she had never seen this young man.
Therefore, seeing this young man now felt very unfamiliar.
Of course, that was the aesthetic of her past self; her aesthetic has changed in this life.
With her increasing interaction with Sheng Ze Xi, she now liked Xi Ge's broad shoulders and narrow waist, with solid muscles underneath, and sharply defined features.
That kind of man was more masculine.
No, to be precise, it's not that her current aesthetic has changed.
Rather, she now likes Sheng Ze Xi, and she likes whatever he is like.
Therefore, after a flash of appreciation in Gu Jia Ning's eyes, she didn't intend to look any further.
Moreover, she really didn't recognize this person.
It's just...
This person's gaze at her felt a little strange.
As if he had known her before, even for a very, very long time.
However, Gu Jia Ning was sure that she didn't know him.
So, when she saw the young man nod at her, Gu Jia Ning nodded back and then turned her gaze back to continue treating Hua Zhenrong.
Hua Zhenrong, on the side, also heard the noise.
He also looked over.
Then he saw the person standing at the door.
Even though Hua Zhenrong had been erratic for the past few years, having grown up in the same compound, Hua Zhenrong still recognized the person at the door—wasn't it Li Tingxuan, the gifted prodigy of the Li Family?
Speaking of which, Hua Zhenrong and Sheng Ze Xi were once called the "twin Military Kings" by the people of the Military Region, but there was actually another person who couldn't be ignored.
That was Li Tingxuan of the Li Family.
Li Tingxuan was, in the mouths of the elders, "other people's child."
He was a role model for all children, and every parent wanted a son like Li Tingxuan.
Li Tingxuan not only looked good—his appearance was the kind that elders liked—but his abilities, temperament, and conduct were also excellent.
When he was younger, Hua Zhenrong had been somewhat unconvinced.
Later, he even went to find the young Li Tingxuan to challenge him to a duel.
But in the end, he was truly impressed by Li Tingxuan's personal charm.
After that, he no longer felt unconvinced or resentful towards Li Tingxuan, but instead admired him.
He thought that if he and Li Tingxuan hadn't gone into the army and been so far apart, perhaps they could have become good friends.
If Hua Zhenrong had to use one word to describe Li Tingxuan, it would be: gentleman.
Yes, Li Tingxuan was a gentlemanly figure.
However...
What was Li Tingxuan doing at their house now?
At this time, Hua Zhenrong followed Li Tingxuan's gaze and found that although Li Tingxuan was concealing it well, his gaze fell on Gu Jia Ning.
Hua Zhenrong: "No, bro, what are you doing? That's my good brother Sheng Ze Xi's wife, and she's pregnant! What are you looking at her like that for?"
"Comrade Hua, let's continue," Gu Jia Ning said when Hua Zhenrong was racking his brains, unable to figure it out.
"Oh, okay." Hua Zhenrong temporarily put aside those messy thoughts and continued the treatment.
Gu Jia Ning's treatment of Hua Zhenrong continued.
On this side, Li Tingxuan quietly waited at the door and watched for as long as Gu Jia Ning treated Hua Zhenrong.
If Gu Jia Ning had turned her head to look at this time, she would have seen that Li Tingxuan's eyes were full of nostalgia.
Gu Jia Ning's treatment pulled Li Tingxuan back into his dream.
In the dream, wasn't he, suffering from PTSD in his last life, treated this way by Gu Jia Ning?
Therefore, how could this scene not make Li Tingxuan nostalgic?
I wonder if everyone understands which playthrough Li Tingxuan is on now.
