Chapter 76 Mr. Gu is so insensitive to chivalry.
Chapter 76 Mr. Gu is so insensitive to chivalry.
Shocked, Su Yiran sat on the yoga mat and watched the video with great interest.
On a dark and windy night, Liu Jiaojiao was walking alone on the road when she was spotted by a homeless man. Soon after, her face became swollen and red, and the handprints on her face were particularly obvious, as if they were engraved in her bones.
Immediately afterwards, a trash can full of garbage was slammed down on her head.
The next second, Meng Ran called.
Su Yiran answered the call, turned on the speakerphone, put it aside, and continued practicing yoga.
Where did you get the video you sent me?
"It's all over the group chat, but I think you probably don't know yet, so I'm just sending it to you for a laugh."
Meng Ran smiled and said, "How about it? Looking at these, does today's unpleasantness feel any better?"
"I do feel much better."
Su Yiran laughed and said, "But what exactly happened? Where did this video come from?"
Meng Ran said, "I can't really say what happened, but this is obviously Mr. Gu's doing. It turns out that Mr. Gu, who is usually a very serious person, can also use such petty tricks to get revenge for you."
serious?
Su Yiran smiled slightly as she listened to Gu Yanli's drowsy words.
He's not serious at all.
"Okay, I'm practicing yoga, I'm busy, bye."
Su Yiran hung up the phone casually, held a plank for a while, then collapsed onto the yoga mat, her forehead covered in a fine layer of sweat.
She went back and took a shower. As soon as she came out of the bathroom, she saw Gu Yanli had returned.
He unbuttoned his coat, tossed it aside, and bent down to take off his wristwatch.
She smiled and leaned closer, "Brother Ayan, you're back!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yanli turned his head and felt a chill run down his spine. "Let's talk this out."
"I'm just speaking properly."
Su Yiran reached out, climbed onto the man's neck, stood on tiptoe, and kissed the corner of his mouth. "Don't you like it, Brother Ayan?"
Gu Yanli's eyes darkened. He grabbed her waist with one hand, lifted her up, placed her on the sofa, and turned to go into the dressing room. "Stop fooling around, I haven't showered yet."
Su Yiran jumped off the sofa and followed behind him. "Brother Ayan, do you need me to lend you a hand?"
"..."
Gu Yanli met her gaze, smiled, threw the pajamas he was holding onto Su Yiran, left the dressing room, and went into the bathroom. "Madam, you can't go back on your word."
"..."
Su Yiran regretted it the moment she got the clothes.
She ran over quickly and threw the clothes back at him, saying, "I was just being polite. Mr. Gu is really too inconsiderate of women."
"It's not like Madam only found out today. It's too late to regret it now."
Gu Yanli pulled the person into the bathroom and closed the bathroom door.
……
The next morning.
When Gu Yanli woke up, he found the room empty. He reached out and touched the spot next to him, but it was cold.
He got up, washed up, and went into the dressing room. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed two file folders that had been opened and were placed on the table, with the documents inside scattered haphazardly.
In just a moment, he looked away, changed his clothes, and went downstairs.
There was no one in the living room or dining room.
"Where's Madame?"
The servant replied respectfully, "Early this morning, someone claiming to be the lady's mother came looking for her, and the lady left."
The Liu family?
Gu Yanli remained expressionless, nodded slightly, turned and entered the restaurant, looking at the untouched breakfast beside him.
He said softly, "Wrap it up and send it to Madam."
"Ok sir."
Liu family.
In the bedroom, Liu Jiaojiao lay on the bed, her face pale.
Since returning home last night, Liu Jiaojiao has had a high fever and is barely alive. She has taken antipyretics, but her temperature keeps fluctuating.
Liu's mother looked quite haggard from worry. She held Su Yiran's hand tightly and said, "Yiyi, I can't eat or sleep well because of your sister's condition. Please, I beg you, save your sister."
Su Yiran lowered her eyes and withdrew her hand. "Mom, you overestimate me. I'm not a doctor. For my sister's condition, it's best to take her to the hospital."
"Don't go to the hospital!"
Mr. Liu frowned and shouted angrily, his face dark and ugly, "Yiran, I know you and Jiaojiao don't get along, so don't come up with bad ideas at a time like this, lest you affect the marriage between the Liu and Gu families."
Su Yiran has a bad temper when she wakes up. She was called over early in the morning. If you're sick, go see a doctor. Even a three-year-old knows that. She was just trying to give a good suggestion, but she was inexplicably scolded. She doesn't have such a good temper.
“This is your own daughter. If you say you don’t want to go, then don’t. Since I gave you such a bad idea, I’ll leave now so I won’t have to see her anymore.”
Su Yiran hadn't eaten anything and was starving. Not wanting to suffer any more frustration here, she turned and left the bedroom.
"Yiyi, wait a moment."
Liu's mother smiled and pulled Su Yiran along, glared at Liu's father, and said, "Your Uncle Liu is just worried sick. He didn't sleep all night because of what happened to Jiaojiao. He was a bit harsh with his words. Let's not take it to heart. Come on, let's go to the room. I have something to tell you."
Su Yiran looked up and glanced at Liu's father. Sure enough, his face looked terrible. She glanced at the keychain hanging on his waist, took a deep look at the person on the bed, and was then pulled away from the room by Liu's mother.
inside the room.
“A prestigious family like the Gu family values fortune the most. If they find out about Jiaojiao’s situation, who knows what might happen? If word gets out, it will be bad for Jiaojiao’s reputation. That’s why your Uncle Liu doesn’t want us to go to the hospital.”
Mother Liu held Su Yiran's hand tightly. "I heard about what happened yesterday. Jiaojiao is young and said some unpleasant things. Don't take it to heart. I heard that Mr. Gu had someone do it last night. Jiaojiao is going to marry into the Gu family, so I want you to talk to Mr. Gu on her behalf and not hold it against her, so that she won't suffer any grievances after marrying into the Gu family."
Su Yiran looked up and met her gaze, which made Liu's mother's scalp tingle. "What's wrong? Why are you looking at your mother like that? Is there something on my face?"
"I haven't really looked at my mother properly in a long time. Today, I found that you are different from the one I remembered."
"Mom has always been here, so why is everything different?"
Su Yiran withdrew her hand and touched her face.
My thoughts drifted back to my childhood.
She looked at her mother in the same way.
"Yiyi, if you look at Mommy like that, Mommy will feel shy."
"Mom is beautiful, and Yiyi wants to look at her like this every day."
“Yiyi is pretty too, and Mommy likes looking at Yiyi.”
The mother tried to pick her up, but she shook her head and refused. The mother looked at her with a wronged expression, "Yiyi, don't you want Mommy to hold you?"
“Yiyi has grown up and gotten heavier, and Daddy will feel sorry for her.”
As she spoke, she turned around and let her father pick her up.
The mother frowned and patted the father irritably, "How can you teach your daughter like that? She won't let me hold her anymore. Are you trying to steal her love..."
