Gu Ningyue looked at Li Jing, and a rough guess had already ford in her mind: "Director Li, there’s no need to be so flustered, I’m not planning to report you. Do you really think I’d save Gu Wanwan, given our enmity?"
Li Jing was taken aback and felt a bit relieved: "Then what did you co to see for today?"
This Gu Ningyue had a completely different aura from Gu Wanwan. If Gu Wanwan was like a proud crane, then Gu Ningyue was a phoenix.
He couldn’t quite understand how such a woman had been so suppressed by Gu Wanwan back then.
Was it because Gu Ningyue hadn’t yet transford then? Or because she hadn’t t Ling Tianyou, so she endured silently?
Gu Ningyue lowered her voice, looking at Li Jing: "Just tell the na of the person backing you, and I’ll pretend this never happened, how about that?"
Li Jing was silent for a few seconds, then slowly replied to Gu Ningyue’s question: "There’s no one behind ; it’s just that I’ve had issues since childhood, which is why I ended up like this."
"Oh?" Gu Ningyue said, half-believing: "Is that so?"
Li Jing responded: "Yes."
He answered without hesitation, but to Gu Ningyue, there was still a hint of doubt: "So, it’s because Gu Wanwan is a soon-to-be-incarcerated criminal that you dared to act against her without worry? I must say, Director Li, you are quite bold."
Li Jing did not speak. How should he answer this question?
Gu Ningyue’s sudden arrival had broken the plan he had laid out. If he couldn’t dispel Gu Ningyue’s suspicions at this ti, things would not go well for him in the future.
"What does Miss Gu want?"
After a while, Li Jing asked Gu Ningyue.
Gu Ningyue shrugged: "I don’t want anything. I just want to know who is backing you, granting you enough courage to act like this."
If it were rely a psychological issue, would Li Jing really dare to do this?
No matter how you think about it, it doesn’t seem likely.
After all, Li Jing, being so young, had already beco an office director; he wouldn’t want to ruin it all at once, would he?
Li Jing shook his head: "Miss Gu is overthinking it. I’m just an ordinary doctor, and there’s no one behind ."
Gu Ningyue, with her fingers resting on the table’s edge, the smile on her face gradually faded: "It’s fine if Director Li doesn’t want to say. I have my ways to find out who’s behind you, and by then, it might be too late for you to plead with !"
There was a subtle nace about her, faint yet binding like a rope.
Was this woman really the sister who grew up with Gu Wanwan?
Why was there such a huge gap between them?
Seeing that Li Jing still had no intention of telling the truth, Gu Ningyue decided not to press him any further, "Goodbye, Director Li."
With that, Gu Ningyue turned and left.
Just as she placed her fingers on the doorknob, Li Jing’s voice suddenly called from behind: "If I tell you, Miss Gu, can you really act as if this never happened?"
Gu Ningyue turned her head, a smile playing on her lips as she spoke to Li Jing: "Of course, we have no grievance, and the one who’s gone crazy is the person I despise the most. Why would I get entangled with you over this?"
Li Jing lowered his head and was silent for a while. When he looked up again, his face was calm: "Goodbye, Miss Gu."
Gu Ningyue hadn’t expected Li Jing to be so determined, further confirming her suspicions.
It seed that there really was soone backing Li Jing, which is why he dared to act so brazenly.
But who could that person be?
Looks like she’ll have to make another trip to the hospital soti soon.
For so reason, Gu Ningyue felt that finding out the answer was very important to her.
"Young Madam."
Seeing Gu Ningyue erge from the office, the two n who had been standing at the doorway finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Let’s go! Accompany to see my sister."
The two n acknowledged her order and then followed Gu Ningyue to Gu Wanwan’s hospital room.
Unlike before, with strict security, it was easier for Gu Ningyue to enter this ti.
Inside the hospital room, Li Yulan, who was keeping watch at the bedside, saw Gu Ningyue enter suddenly, a flash of hatred crossed her eyes: "You bitch, you dare to co?"
Gu Ningyue gave a faint smile, swaying her way to the bedside: "Tsk tsk tsk, how did things end up like this? It’s so pitiful."
The eyes of Gu Wanwan on the bed were vacant, as if she had just been forcibly cald after a fit of madness.
"If it weren’t for you, you stinking whore, would Wanwan have turned out like this today? Gu Ningyue, you’ll die a horrible death!"
Listening to Li Yulan’s insults, Gu Ningyue wasn’t bothered in the least, since at this point, apart from these useless words, Li Yulan couldn’t do anything else.
"But as it seems now, isn’t the one who’s dood to die horribly Gu Wanwan?" Gu Ningyue raised an eyebrow, laughing instead of getting angry: "If she weren’t both stupid and malicious, she wouldn’t have ended up like this."
"But who can she bla? With a mother like you, how could she not end up in jail?"
Li Yulan sprang up: "You cheap girl, what are you saying? Your mother never taught you well when she was alive. Even in death, she should haunt you in a dream to prevent you from being as cheap as her! Do you really think Ling Tianyou is interested in you? Isn’t it just for that billion-dollar inheritance of yours? Who would want you otherwise? Dream on!"
Hearing her ntion her late mother, Gu Ningyue let out a cold laugh and said to Li Yulan: "My mother did visit in a dream, telling you deserved this fate. Your daughter beca a lunatic, and your son ended up in jail — isn’t that your biggest punishnt? And when it cos to being cheap, who could surpass you? Sha on you for being a mistress, and for teaching your daughter to do the sa. Bravo! Such shalessness even has a legacy! Excellent, excellent!"
Gu Ningyue clapped her hands.
"You!" Li Yulan was seething with anger, at a loss for words: "Gu Ningyue, don’t be too pleased with yourself. You think I don’t know? With Chen Rui back, Ling Tianyou no longer cares about you. We shall see. Once you’re kicked out by Ling Tianyou, don’t beg and your father to take you in!"
"Rest assured, even if I do get kicked out, I’ll live better than you!"
Seeing Li Yulan’s exasperated expression, Gu Ningyue left the hospital room feeling quite satisfied.
The three of them returned to the car, and as soon as Gu Ningyue settled in, the phone rang inside the vehicle.
"Hello? President Ling... yes, we’ve picked up Young Madam and are on our way back. Young Madam just visited Second Miss Gu at the hospital, which caused a bit of a delay, said Ah Jin."
