Report to the president, the lady doesn't want you anymore

Chapter 129: Emerging from Cocoon to Butterfly (6)

Jiang Yu didn't deny it outright, but frankly admitted, "Yes, your father was involved in this, but I think he has a point. You really shouldn't have become a victim of this."

Hearing this, Gu Yan's face instantly turned gloomy. She stared at Jiang Yu intently and asked in a cold tone, "So, may I ask, what kind of deal did you reach with him?"

Gu Guyan knew her father's character very well. He had traveled all over the country for so many years, and he would never do any business that would lose money.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Yu slowly said, "Five percent of Jiang's shares belong to him."

Before he finished speaking, this sentence exploded in Gu Yan's heart like a thunderclap, making her stand still.

The next second, Gu Yan raised her hand in anger and slapped Jiang Yu hard.

"How dare you act like this, Jiang Yu? You are so foolish and utterly stupid! Do you know what the group relies on to survive safely? It's precisely that huge debt that is ostensibly owed! Everyone in the outside world knows that the Jiang Group and the Haisheng Group in Jinghai are closely connected and bound together. No one dares to provoke the Jiang Group easily. And yet, you are so eager to hand the Jiang Group over to others!"

At this time, Gu Yan was already furious, his chest heaving violently, and his anger was almost bursting out.

Jiang Yu rarely saw Gu Yan lose her temper like this, and for a moment he was at a loss.

He opened his mouth and tried to defend himself, but Gu Yan didn't want to hear another word from him.

All I heard was her stern voice: "From this moment on, you are fired!"

After saying that, Gu Yan turned around and left without looking back, leaving Jiang Yu standing there in a daze with a look of astonishment on his face.

Jiang Yu knew very well that Gu Yan was a person who kept her word and was decisive and resolute, and everything he did was out of his concern and love for her.

No matter what, he could never abandon Jiang's, because it held something that Gu Yan cherished extremely.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yu became extremely anxious and ran down the stairs as if there was wind under his feet.

As soon as he got downstairs, he saw Gu Yan hurriedly getting into a taxi.

Fortunately, it was rush hour and there were frequent taxis coming and going downstairs of the company.

Jiang Yu was quick-witted and quickly stopped one of the cars and got in without hesitation.

"Master, please catch up with the taxi in front!"

Jiang Yu said anxiously, his eyes fixed on the car ahead, which was gradually moving away. Sitting in the car, his heart felt as if it had fallen into an abyss, and his regret grew stronger.

He kept blaming himself, wondering why he had so easily believed what Gu Yihuai and that man said.

Why didn't he always trust Gu Yan's judgment? All of this was his fault!

Now, he only prayed that God would bless him and let Gu Yan forgive the mistakes he made...

Finally, time passed minute by minute, as if a century had passed. Half an hour later, Jiang Yu's anxious eyes were fixed on the distance until a familiar figure appeared in his sight—it was Gu Yan! She slowly got out of the car in front of Qingcheng First Hospital.

Jiang Yu's heart was instantly filled with countless questions, and various speculations kept flashing through his mind: Why did Gu Yan come to this place? Is she sick? The thought of this made Jiang Yu's heart feel like being gnawed by thousands of ants, and he was in a panic. He couldn't imagine how he would face this sudden change if Gu Yan really was ill.

"No, I have to find out what happened!"

Jiang Yu secretly made up his mind. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, but his slightly trembling hands betrayed his nervousness. He took a step forward and walked quickly towards the direction where Gu Yan got off the car...

Gu Yan hurried to the hospital's service desk and anxiously asked the staff about the ward where Gu An was.

After getting the accurate answer, she ran in that direction without stopping.

When she finally arrived at the door of the ward, she happened to see a group of doctors in white coats coming in one after another, preparing to conduct routine rounds on Gu An.

Looking at the emaciated figure lying on the hospital bed, Gu Yan's heart suddenly tightened.

No wonder when she saw Gu An yesterday, she felt that he had lost a lot more weight than before. It turned out that he had such a serious illness! Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

All along, this younger brother has never looked at me straight in the eye, and even often mocks me.

However, such a proud person would actually humble himself and go to Jinghai to find himself in person.

Perhaps for him, this is already a huge concession and compromise?

Thinking of this, Gu Yan felt a mixture of emotions, somewhat touched, yet also a little helpless. After all, this young master was used to a life of luxury.

But at this moment, all the grudges and hatreds seem to no longer matter.

This young man, who is in his youth and should be enjoying life freely, is now confined to this small and cold ward, enduring the torture of illness day after day, quietly waiting for the favor and mercy of the god of fate.

At this moment, Gu Yihuai also happened to arrive.

When he found Gu Yan standing outside the ward door, he was stunned for a moment, then slowly said: "Anyway, I still want to thank you for coming this time."

Gu Yan didn't have the energy to carefully ponder the deeper meaning of Gu Yihuai's sincere thanks. She just wanted to solve the problem at hand as quickly as possible.

So, without any hesitation, she directly put forward her request to Gu Yihuai.

"Of course I can go to the hospital without hesitation to get a bone marrow match. But before that, there's one condition you must fulfill—return the 5% stake in Jiang's to Xiaotian! You know, you cheated me out of it through dishonorable means, and now it's time to return it to its rightful owner."

He never imagined that Jiang Yu was so vulnerable. After just a short while, he betrayed him mercilessly.

However, in the face of Gu Yan's request, Gu Yihuai showed no intention of backing down.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a sly smile, and he said slowly: "Well, this is not that easy. I spent a lot of effort and went through untold hardships to get the shares of Jiang's. You want me to return it all? No way! At most, I can only return you one percent." After saying that, he folded his hands in front of his chest, putting on an arrogant and domineering look.

"Hmph, it seems your love for your son is just this much! Maybe, if I just walked in right now and told him in person that I regretted it and didn't want to continue, would your precious only son resent you from then on and even refuse to talk to you forever?"

Hearing Gu Yan's naked threat, Gu Yihuai's anger was instantly ignited. His face became extremely gloomy, and his chest heaved violently with anger.

"You originally owned half of Jiang's enterprise. I'm only temporarily holding 5% of it for you. In my opinion, that little guy shouldn't be so narrow-minded and petty, right? Besides, you've already joined the He family and become a member of the He clan. How can you still be interested in Jiang's petty profits and leftovers? Gu Yan, Gu Yan, you can't be so treacherous and betrayal!"

Gu Yihuai widened his eyes, glaring at the woman in front of him who was once familiar but now extremely unfamiliar, and said with gritted teeth.

"That's a completely different matter, Gu Yihuai! You can't take even a tiny bit of Xiaotian's things from me. Otherwise, you should know my temper very well. I would rather perish than compromise!"

Gu Yan stared at Gu Yihuai fiercely, without any sign of giving in in her words.

Gu Yihuai knew very well that Gu Yan was a man of his word. If he insisted on not giving in, things would probably become difficult to resolve.

Helplessly, he could only sigh and say, "Alright, as long as you can successfully rescue Gu An, I'll gladly return the 5% to you. However, if you fail to achieve this goal, then I'm sorry, you won't get a penny!"

Hearing this, Gu Yan knew in her heart that this was the greatest compromise Gu Yihuai could make.

If I continue to pester him, I might really anger the man in front of me.

So, she restrained her sharpness a little, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go get checked first. I haven't had a drop of water or a grain of rice for almost twenty-four hours. I'm so hungry that I feel like I'm about to collapse." As she spoke, she held her forehead with her hand, and her steps seemed a little unsteady.

Gu Yan followed the doctor with a solemn expression, entering the consulting room filled with the smell of disinfectant. She completed a blood draw and a series of tedious and complex examinations. Each test seemed like a hurdle, making her heart grow heavier.

When all the tests were finally completed, the doctor told her that the results would take at least a day to come out. This meant that Gu Yan had to stay in this unfamiliar Qingcheng for the time being and continue her long wait.

"I have done what I promised you. You should let A Da and Asan go. I believe that with your means, it should not be a problem to get them both out." Gu Yan looked directly at the indifferent man in front of her, her tone firm but with a hint of barely perceptible nervousness.

"That's no problem. But Gu Yan, don't even think about escaping. You're in Qingcheng now, and I have spies everywhere. You'll be discovered wherever you go." The man's lips curled up slightly, revealing a chilling smile. His deep eyes seemed to see through everything, making Gu Yan's uneasiness even stronger.

Gu Yan took a deep breath and tried to remain calm. "Don't worry, since I promised you, I won't break my promise. But I hope you can also keep your promise and rescue Ah Da and the others as soon as possible." After saying this, she turned and left, her figure gradually disappearing at the end of the hospital corridor. However, she knew in her heart that the next day would be extremely difficult...
