Mom Gu expressed gratitude on the surface while feeling uneasy inside. She had no idea what was really going on with her daughter's illness.
She told a white lie to Aunt Qiu, saying she wanted to go out for a stroll. Aunt Qiu was about to take her daughter to school, so she couldn't accompany Mom Gu.
At the intersection, Su Yide drove by and, after confirming each other's identity, Mom Gu got into his car.
Since there was still time, and they needed to wait for a signal from his sister, Su Yide first took Mom Gu for a leisurely drive around the city.
Mom Gu had never been here before and thought this was the traffic congestion people talked about in the big city, so she didn't suspect Su Yide's aimless driving at all. Instead, she started asking him about her daughter's condition.
As a doctor, Su Yide found it very easy to tell such lies, and he managed to baffle Mom Gu completely, preventing any suspicions from falling on him.
