Dong Yujun is the deputy director of the local clinic and one of the first students sent abroad on a government scholarship after the founding of the People's Republic. She is also a renowned gynecologist in the area. Years ago, she and Gu Chaoyi’s mother were classmates. Later, after she divorced and Director Gu was widowed, they avoided contact to keep people from gossiping. Furthermore, Dong Yujun had divorced first, and she had actually been the midwife for Gu Chaoyi’s mother. Some people claimed she had intentionally let the woman die because she wanted to marry Director Gu, but anyone with a clear head knew that was nonsense. Gu Chaoyi’s mother had passed away from an amniotic fluid embolism after giving birth; it had nothing to do with Dong. To avoid suspicion, she had never visited their home since, though privately, she had always looked out for the girl. Knowing about this connection, Sang Zhi had specifically asked her for help. Last night, when Gu Chaoyi went to the hospital, Aunt Dong happened to be on duty, so Gu had simply slept there after her check-up and was only driven back this morning.
