The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife Chapter 1080: Gu Li

"Wait a minute, no need to rush, after all, patrolling is just routine, it’s okay to be a bit late." Gu Xin hurriedly stopped Ghost, looking gratified. "If all the hospital security guards were as dedicated as you, how could so many troublemakers come here?"

"What do you mean?" Ghost raised his head and asked curiously. He had just lost his memory, forgetting not only information but more importantly, societal norms, like basic ’interpersonal relationships’.

"Hospital security is basically a leisurely job, unless there’s trouble, they’re mostly useless. Therefore, the requirements for security guards at the hospital are minimal, so many in the security team got in through connections." Gu Xin explained with a hint of disdain in her eyes. No wonder, if the security guards back then were conscientious, Gu Jian wouldn’t have been injured by troublemakers.

"Um, what does ’using the back door’ mean?" It took Ghost a while to spit out this sentence.

"It’s using connections, like that Li, who came in just because his uncle is a director, basically here to loaf around." Gu Xin snorted coldly. "These people are all for show and no substance."

"So that’s it." Ghost nodded. "No wonder Captain Chen looks even weaker than the patients."

"Hmph, in my opinion, you’d make a more suitable security captain."

"Forget it, I’m new here, and besides, Captain Chen, though a bit weak physically, he’s a decent person and quite dedicated." Ghost shook his head.

"You’re putting yourself at a disadvantage. These people are all nepotistic. Once you come on board, they certainly won’t be happy, and they might even plot against you behind your back." Gu Xin rambled on, but Ghost remained apathetic. He’s actually curious about what kind of person he used to be, trying to reclaim his lost memories, yet... it hasn’t worked out. Gu Jian also mentioned that such things can’t be forced, and luck plays a significant role. With good luck, perhaps he could retrieve them in a few days, but it’s also possible they remain lost for a lifetime.

Anyway, for now, just deal with the matters at hand.

"Alright, you’ve said so much, we haven’t eaten yet." Ghost smiled faintly, pointing his chopsticks at Gu Xin’s meal box.

"Talking to you made my meal go cold." Gu Xin let out a bitter smile, hurriedly finishing her meal, while Ghost waited patiently, watching from the side.

"By the way, the director mentioned the naming thing last time, do you have any ideas?"

"I... not yet, I don’t know how to choose a name." Ghost smiled awkwardly. Although he lost his memory, he can still read characters, and even understands English. At least it indicates he was proficient in English before, perhaps working abroad.

"Why don’t I give you a name, how about... Gu Li?"

"Gu Li, sounds pretty good." Ghost nodded. To be honest, he’s indeed ’lacking in education’ at the moment. The name Gu Li sounds quite pleasing to the ear, so he had no objections.

"Great, from now on you’ll be Gu Li, we’re colleagues at the hospital."

"Gu Xin, aren’t you still in college?"

"I’m an intern. However, if everything goes well, it should be fine." Gu Xin nodded, looking pleased.

"Oh, that’s nice."

"I don’t have any plans later, how about I join you on patrol?"

"If you’re willing, sure, but don’t let it hinder your work." Ghost, or rather Gu Li, had become exceptionally proactive in his job after losing his memory, turning into a diligent role model.

"No problem."

.....................

"What’s this?" In the security room, Gu Xin, like a curious child, fiddled with the equipment on the table.

"Baton, pepper spray, these are everyday equipment." Gu Li adjusted his attire and equipped himself. This is the largest hospital in East Sea, with thousands of people coming and going daily. Routine patrols are unavoidable, including the record room, pharmacy, blood bank, and even the garden in the back, to prevent accidents.

"Gu Li, Gu Li." Gu Xin called out several times before Ghost responded.

"Oh, sorry, I’m still not familiar with this name." Ghost smiled awkwardly, feeling unfamiliar indeed. Although Ghost was a Huaxia native, he barely returned to Huaxia before, and can even say Gu Li is his first ’Huaxia name’.

"No worries, you’ll get used to it." The two walked to the garden at the back of the hospital. Suddenly, many people wielding knives and clubs jumped out from all sides.

"Gu Xin, be careful." Ghost immediately shouted. The ones who came weren’t here with good intentions. This place rarely had anyone visiting, being quite secluded. Previous security guards also neglected it for convenience, simply skipping it. Ghost was conscientious, ensuring every corner of the hospital gets checked, unexpectedly encountering an ’ambush’ here.

"You punk, finally caught you." Said one leader, upon closer look, isn’t he the troublemaker from that day?

"And the little nurse is here too." The crowd cast lewd glances at Gu Xin, like a pack of wolves. Gu Xin clung closely behind Ghost in fright.

"So it’s you." Ghost remained unfazed. There were quite a number of them, around twenty to thirty people, more than during the troublemaking incident. Clearly, it was premeditated. Obviously, they were here for revenge, undoubtedly local thugs. Looking at these ’lackeys’, they were young and rogue-like, even had tattoos on their arms.

"Gu Li, let’s call the police."

"Just stay behind me and be careful. These people are here for me, I don’t want you accidentally hurt." Ghost took out the baton from his waist and handed the pepper spray to Gu Xin.

"If anyone gets close, spray them with this."

"Okay, I understand."

"Hey, you guys are here for revenge, come at me. Like a man, either solo or gang fight, your call." Ghost deliberately provoked them, attracting their attention, fearing they’d harm Gu Xin.

"Boss, let’s go for it." One thug shouted.

"Wait, this punk can fight, we won’t gain from it, but we can use the woman beside him." The leading burly man waved his hand, and a group of thugs slowly surrounded the two.

"Gu Li, what do we do?"

"Gu Xin."

"Yes?"

"I’m sorry, excuse me."

The words just fell, and Gu Xin felt herself being grabbed by the waist and lifted. Looking down, Ghost held her with one arm and charged towards a nearby wall, wielding the baton with the other hand, swiftly knocking down several thugs.

"Quick, grab them."

"Gu Xin, get ready." Ghost held Gu Xin, stepping on the wall, channeling his Inner Strength. The two actually ’flew’ into the air, jumping, gliding, and landed steadily on the other side of the wall.
