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

Chapter 130: Emerging from Cocoon to Butterfly (7)

Just as Gu Yan stepped out of the hospital gate, the gears of fate began to turn quietly.

In another corner of the hospital, Jiang Yu unexpectedly ran into Gu Yihuai. Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and the two of them stared at each other quietly, everything around them becoming unimportant.

Finally, it was Jiang Yu who broke the suffocating silence.

His voice trembled slightly, with unconcealable anxiety: "Where is Gu Yan? What did you do to her?" His concern was evident in his words.

However, facing Jiang Yu's urgent questioning, Gu Yihuai was indifferent, and even ruthlessly pointed out the deepest and most unwilling secret in Jiang Yu's heart.

"Hmph, stop pretending. I know you've always liked Gu Yan. But unfortunately, Gu Yan has never had the slightest bit of affection for you. And with you, you don't deserve her favor at all! I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible. Stop daydreaming about how a toad can eat swan meat. Think carefully about your own weight!"

These words were like a sharp sword, ruthlessly piercing Jiang Yu's heart.

He had never expected that Gu Yihuai would expose the matter so bluntly. For a moment, all kinds of complicated emotions surged into his heart like a tide - anger made his eyes almost spit fire; embarrassment made his face flush instantly; shyness was like an invisible hand, tightly grasping his heart; and the deep sense of shame made him wish he could find a hole to crawl into.

Although his heart was already in turmoil, Jiang Yu still responded stubbornly: "I don't know what nonsense you are talking about!"

In reality, when faced with the brutal truth, people usually have only two choices: either quickly retreat into their protective shells like a cowardly turtle and continue to escape reality, or bravely stand up, face the bloody truth, and become a truly fearless warrior.

It’s a pity that at this moment Jiang Yu obviously belongs to the former.

Gu Yihuai looked at Jiang Yu with disdain, his heart full of contempt.

Such an insignificant character actually wanted to lay his hands on his precious daughter. He really didn't know his place and was dreaming!

Even though Gu Yan and He Li can no longer be together, at least they still have an outstanding and talented person like Fu Xu by their side.

Thinking of this, Gu Yihuai quickly took out his cell phone and dialed Fu Xu's number.

"Hello? Mr. Fu, this is the situation. As long as you can defeat He Li's Haisheng Group in one fell swoop, my Gu Yan will definitely become your bride!"

Gu Yihuai said this with full confidence, as if everything was under his control.

However, if someone who did not know the truth heard these words, they might mistakenly think that he was giving orders to others in a domineering manner.

Unfortunately, this time Gu Yihuai hit a wall.

Upon hearing this, Fu Xu's tone on the other end of the phone instantly turned cold: "Old Man Gu, don't go too far! If it weren't for Gu Yan's future happiness, do you think someone like me would be willing to cooperate with a fellow like you? As for how to deal with He Li, that's entirely my business, and there's no need for you to interfere! Besides, I only agreed to help you arrange for Gu Yan to go to Qingcheng, but I never promised you that you could hurt her at will. If you dare to force Gu Yan to provide a bone marrow transplant for your son, I guarantee that your son will die even faster!"

After saying that, Fu Xu hung up the phone without mercy.

"You!" Gu Yihuai's eyes widened, his face filled with anger as he stared at Fu Xu, about to say something more. However, Fu Xu seemed to have heard nothing, not even giving him a glance. He turned and walked away, leaving Gu Yihuai standing there alone, trembling with anger.

Regardless, Gu Yan was already in Qingcheng; this was an established fact. Even if Fu Xu was swift and skillful, the two places were far apart, and he couldn't effectively intervene in Qingcheng's affairs in such a short period of time.

Time slipped by quietly, and finally it was six o'clock that afternoon. After a long wait, Ah Da and Ah San were finally released from their cages. As they walked out of the tightly closed door, they were overjoyed to see the familiar figure of Gu Yan coming to greet them. However, contrary to their expectations, it wasn't Gu Yan herself who appeared before them, but a group of men sent by Gu Yihuai.

These men ostensibly came to take care of the two of them, but their true purpose was self-evident—surveillance and control. Ah Da, a rather impulsive person, was about to explode upon seeing this, ready to revolt against these uninvited guests. Just then, Gu Yan's call came through like a timely rain.

Gu Yan's voice on the other end of the line sounded a little tired. She didn't elaborate on why she hadn't come to greet them in person. She simply instructed them briefly and firmly, "You two should just follow them and follow their instructions. Also, don't reveal anything to He Li about what's happening in Qingcheng for now."

After hanging up the phone, although Ah Da was still dissatisfied, he obeyed Gu Yan's instructions and left silently with Ah San.

However, Gu Yan was completely unaware of this at the moment. From the moment the three of them left Jinghai, He Li had been following them closely like a ghost, his figure practically inseparable from them.

Because of this, He Li knew everything about the series of ups and downs and difficulties that Gu Yan had experienced during her time in Qingcheng.

Gu Yan had just hung up the phone in a hurry when Ah Da and Ah San immediately understood what he meant and nodded slightly towards a black car parked not far away.

After all, they have followed He Li for several years, and they are very familiar with this car belonging to He Li.

The most critical task at present is undoubtedly to ensure Gu Yan's personal safety.

Gu Yihuai, the old fox, suddenly made such a move, and there must be some ulterior conspiracy behind it.

Watching Ah Da and Ah San get into the car arranged by Gu Yihuai, He Li keenly noticed that the trackers they were carrying were slowly moving as the car started.

In fact, Gu Yan was also installed with a tracker at first, but unexpectedly, shortly after she arrived in Qingcheng, the signal of the tracker suddenly stopped, as if it had disappeared out of thin air.

This unusual situation made He Li's heart tighten. Based on his years of experience and keen intuition, he judged that Gu Yan was most likely in danger.

But just now, when she heard the call from Gu Yan, it seemed to indicate that at least up to now, her life was not in danger.

But even so, He Li's worries did not diminish in the slightest. He knew very well that in this complicated situation, any negligence could lead to irreversible consequences.

The night slowly enveloped the entire city like ink. The hustle and bustle was gradually swallowed up by the darkness, leaving only dotted lights dotting the silent streets.

On such a quiet night, Gu Yan was led into the Gu family mansion in Qingcheng.

This mansion is magnificent, exuding an ancient and solemn atmosphere.

When Gu Yan just stepped into the door and hadn't even put her feet firmly on the ground, she heard soft footsteps coming from the stairs.

She subconsciously turned her head and saw a woman in gorgeous clothes and with dignified manners walking down the stairs.

This woman was Wang Juan, Gu An's biological mother. Although nearly fifty years had passed, she looked no more than forty years old thanks to years of meticulous maintenance.

However, at this moment, Wang Juan could not hide the haggardness and worry on her face.

Her originally bright and beautiful face lost its former radiance due to her son's serious illness, and instead added a bit of heartbreaking morbid beauty.

Her beautiful eyes were now bloodshot, revealing deep fatigue and worry.

At this moment, Wang Juan caught a glimpse of Gu Yan standing at the door. A hint of surprise flashed across her face for a moment, but she quickly returned to an indifferent expression.

She raised her chin slightly and said in a slightly sarcastic tone, "Oh, look who this is! Isn't this the high-ranking eldest daughter of our Gu family? I remember it clearly. Back then, someone swore solemnly that even if they starved to death on the streets, they would never set foot in the Gu family's door again! How come she has come back on her own initiative now?"

After saying that, she sneered and looked Gu Yan up and down with sharp eyes.

Gu Yan looked at the person in front of her coldly, her heart filled with disgust and resentment, and she was unwilling to say even a word to her.

Deep down in her heart, she always believed that at least half of the misfortunes her mother had suffered were to be blamed on the vicious woman in front of her - Wang Juan.

Seeing that Gu Yan ignored her, Wang Juan was immediately furious and rushed downstairs in two steps.

During this period of time, as Gu An's health was deteriorating, Wang Juan was worried and anxious all day long.

Now, Gu Yan, the disaster star, has returned home again, which undoubtedly makes Wang Juan, who is already upset, even more angry.

Wang Juan's eyes were wide open, and she raised her hand and slapped Gu Yan fiercely.

However, just as her palm was about to land on Gu Yan's face, it was suddenly grabbed by a strong hand. It turned out that Gu Yihuai was standing behind Gu Yan.

"What are you doing!" Gu Yihuai shouted angrily.

"What? Are you still protecting this little bitch?"

Wang Juan yelled in frustration, "Do you think Gu An is beyond saving, so you brought this unlucky guy back? I'm telling you, if anything happens to Gu An, she, Gu Yan, won't have an easy life either. She must go down to be buried with him!"

Before she finished speaking, Wang Juan looked like a madman, with a fierce and murderous look in her eyes.

"If you want your son to lose his last hope, then go ahead and beat him. Gu Yan is his only hope now. Do you understand?"
