Su Ruanruan knew that Bao Jingyan had another plan, so she told Gu Yuanpei about it.
The three mbers of the Gu Family listened, dumbfounded.
After a while, Gu Yuanpei finally managed to voice out: "Nonsense!"
He wanted to say, was Bao Jingyan trying to get himself killed and make his daughter a widow in the process?
But since he hadn’t acknowledged Ruanruan, how could he say that?
Gu Ze silently continued eating.
Mrs. Gu’s face was filled with worry: "Jingyan really is...!"
She couldn’t help saying, "He’s different from before now! How can this child still be so reckless?"
Her daughter’s happiness!
Su Ruanruan actually didn’t agree either, but Bao Jingyan was very domineering.
She ate quietly, taking small bites.
After a while, she spoke softly: "He said he knows what he’s doing."
Gu Yuanpei imdiately burst out swearing.
He waved his hand dismissively: "What does he know! Lin Sheng, no, we must bring Ruanruan back."
Seeing her husband so agitated, Mrs. Gu disagreed with a look.
After a short mont, Mr. Gu finally noticed his own improper attitude. He touched his head and said with rare embarrassnt: "Uncle was too anxious! Uncle is also worried about Jingyan."
"I know," Su Ruanruan whispered.
Gu Yuanpei smiled and gave his wife a aningful look.
Mrs. Gu knew exactly what was going on.
...
At night, Mrs. Gu slept with Su Ruanruan.
She lay on her side looking at her daughter, her eyes filled with distress and affection.
She could never get enough of looking at her!
Her daughter’s slender figure, and her shiny, straight black hair spread out on the snow-white pillow, breathtakingly beautiful.
Mrs. Gu spoke to her in a whisper.
"Mu Jiu is quite a character, you really don’t have the slightest feelings for him?"
"No."
Mrs. Gu then lightly laughed, reached out to stroke Su Ruanruan’s hair, and asked softly: "But you like Jingyan, right?"
Su Ruanruan first shook her head, then nodded slightly.
"I have things to do! But I know I should like him."
He forced her, but he also taught her many things, always protecting her.
Mrs. Gu had her answer and said: "There’s no one like Bao Jingyan in Jiang City. I think he likes you very much too."
Su Ruanruan blushed.
Her heart was in turmoil, and she slowly moved closer to Mrs. Gu.
"Let’s sleep," Mrs. Gu said softly: "Tomorrow, I’ll accompany you to see him."
Su Ruanruan made a sound of agreent and closed her eyes.
But that night, she couldn’t sleep at all.
Every ti she closed her eyes, she could imagine Bao Jingyan lying in the hospital bed.
She thought, he really doesn’t care about his own life.
Su Ruanruan couldn’t sleep, so she took her phone and thought about sending a ssage to Bao Jingyan, but worried it might disturb his rest, she ultimately didn’t send it.
...
That night, there was soone else who couldn’t sleep.
It was Mu Jiu.
After bathing, Mu Jiu changed into a black silk robe and sat on the couch, holding a glass of western liquor in his hand.
He drank half the glass in one go, then slamd it down.
"Useless!" He scolded his subordinates: "Can’t even deal with one person properly."
His subordinates hung their heads, mumbling their defense: "Boss Mu, that guy from the Bao Family is too cunning, he spotted us the mont we made a move."
They tried to take credit: "But at least we managed to wound his shoulder!"
They fawned, "Perhaps in Miss Su’s eyes, he’s just a useless loser, nowhere near as good as you, Boss Mu. You excel both in pen and sword!"
The flattery clearly missed its mark; the glass in Mu Jiu’s hand was hurled away in an instant.
"Do you think Bao Jingyan is that simple?"
Mu Jiu, who had fought his way through life to get to where he was today, had a profound and calculating mind.
He thought to himself, Bao Jingyan getting injured on purpose must be part of so sche!
Heh, perhaps it was a deliberate ploy, so he could then openly target him, Mu Jiu!
