Yan Sui stood opposite Gu Moxuan, his attitude respectful, and his expression remained unchanged.

"Is there anything else you need, Mr. Gu?"

His tone was calm and neither humble nor arrogant.

She felt flustered because of Gu Moxuan's gaze, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Having been by Gu Moxuan's side for many years, he had long been accustomed to his temperament.

But this was the first time he had looked at him with such scrutiny.

Seeing his calm expression, Gu Moxuan spoke slowly.

"Assistant Yan, you've been by my side for three years now, you should know my personality. I don't like it when people try to take my things."

Yan Sui nodded.

"Mr. Gu, I've been by your side for three years, so I know you very well. But I'm not sure which one you're referring to?"

He looked calmly at Gu Moxuan.

Gu Moxuan's dark eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of coldness flashing in them.

"Lin Qingran."

Yan Sui was startled.

Although he had some guesses in his mind, he did not expect Gu Moxuan to say Lin Qingran's name.

For the past three years, he has stayed by Gu Moxuan's side and has always kept his emotions under control.

I have never done anything out of line, but today I carried Lin Qingran back to Sixiang Garden.

That was the only thing he did that exceeded the level of concern of his subordinates.

He took a deep breath, his gaze somewhat unfocused, and dared not meet Gu Moxuan's eyes, finally lowering his head.

"Mr. Gu, I understand."

Gu Moxuan glanced at him indifferently, then looked away and said coldly.

"You've worked hard these past few days, you should take a break."

Yan Sui's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, but Gu Moxuan had never taken back what he said.

Although he wanted to defend himself, he ultimately remained silent.

"Thank you, Mr. Gu."

Gu Moxuan nodded, his expression unchanged, and turned to return to Old Madam Gu's ward.

Yan Sui watched as Gu Moxuan closed the door to the ward and then turned and left.

Lin Qingran called at that moment.

Yan Sui's thoughts were in turmoil when he saw the familiar number.

But as always, he answered the call immediately.

"lady......"

Lin Qingran's gentle voice came through, "Have you arrived at the hospital? Have the Gu family members arrived yet?"

Yan Sui took a deep breath and answered calmly.

"Madam, only Mr. Gu is in the hospital right now. The Gu family hasn't arrived yet, or perhaps they haven't heard the news."

"That's good."

Yan Sui gripped her phone, feeling a tightness in her chest, and then said in a low voice.

"Madam, please don't call me about Mr. Gu's affairs anymore."

Lin Qingran was taken aback by his words, but she didn't ask why. She simply said calmly.

"Okay, thank you for your help during this time."

Yan Sui felt a chill in his heart, but he didn't ask why, which was typical of Lin Qingran's personality.

This time, he didn't wait for Lin Qingran to hang up first; instead, he hung up the phone himself.

......

Seeing that Yan Sui had hung up the phone, Lin Qingran frowned slightly. She found Gu Moxuan's number, intending to call and inquire about the situation.

But whenever I think of his name, I picture him embracing Lin Xiaoruo.

That scene was so heartbreaking that Lin Qingran felt incredibly powerless whenever she thought about it.

She took a deep breath and ultimately decided not to call Gu Moxuan.

However, the fact that Mrs. Gu was hospitalized due to a relapse of her asthma could not be kept secret.

The Gu family soon learned that Old Mrs. Gu was in the hospital.

While Wang Ma was changing Lin Qingran's dressing, she received a call from Gu Yihuai.

She didn't want to answer Gu Yihuai's number.

But considering that Old Madam Gu is currently hospitalized, and Gu Yihuai is good at provoking, perhaps we can hear some news from Gu Yihuai.

"Wang Ma, you can go and get back to work now."

After sending Wang Ma away, Lin Qingran answered Gu Yihuai's call.

"What's the matter?"

Her voice remained cold and indifferent.

Gu Yihuai didn't seem to mind, his voice carrying a hint of schadenfreude.

"Qingran, there's a great show unfolding in the Gu family right now. It would be a shame if you didn't come. I'll be waiting for you at the Gu family."

Lin Qingran frowned, instinctively wondering if something had happened to Gu Moxuan.

She remained silent, also worried that Gu Yihuai was up to no good.

After all, Gu Yihuai is a man who can come up with all sorts of schemes, making him impossible to guard against.

"Lin Xiaoruo has already rushed here after hearing the news. If you, as her wife, were to arrive late, you might incur someone's resentment again."

After Gu Yihuai finished speaking, he hung up the phone without giving Lin Qingran any chance to ask any questions.

Lin Qingran's face was grim, and her expression was heavy.

Gu Moxuan was a prime example of someone who was neither loved by his father nor his mother in the Gu family.

When she took over the Gu family's business, it was because Old Madam Gu helped her out of consideration for Lin Qingran.

Only then did they manage to acquire the Gu family assets that Master Gu intended to transfer to Gu Yihuai.

Now that Gu Moxuan has angered Old Madam Gu to the point of hospitalization, the Gu family will definitely hold onto this matter and won't let it go.

I'm afraid that if Old Madam Gu is disappointed in Gu Moxuan, she will give her shares to Gu Yihuai, which will have a significant impact on Gu Moxuan.

Lin Qingran suddenly felt a headache, as if everything had suddenly erupted at this moment.

She glanced at her feet.

If I go to the Gu family as an injured person, I'm afraid Master Gu will be even angrier.

Lin Qingran gritted her teeth and made up her mind.

She unwrapped the bandages, put on her usual high heels, and drove to the Gu family home.

There were no problems on the way to the Gu family.

To conceal her pale complexion, she deliberately chose a bright red lipstick.

She parked her car in front of the Gu family's house and saw a familiar car parked there as well, and paused for a moment.

It turns out that the car that disappeared in the garage was given to Lin Xiaoru by Gu Moxuan.

She felt a stab to her heart again, and a piercing pain shot through the soles of her feet.

Gu Yihuai crossed his arms and leaned slightly against the door frame, watching Lin Qingran staring blankly at the car Lin Xiaoruo had driven up.

He whistled at Lin Qingran and strode over.

"Qingran".

His wispy bangs fell across his forehead, and his striking fuchsia hair added a touch of allure to his handsome features.

His face was full of arrogance and defiance.

Lin Qingran frowned upon hearing his voice and slowly walked towards the Gu family home, passing Gu Yihuai.

Gu Yihuai saw her walk right past him, completely ignoring his enthusiastic greeting.

He didn't mind; as Lin Qingran walked past him, he raised his hand, and her long, beautiful hair brushed against him.

He slightly curved his thin lips and brought the finger with her hair to his nose to smell it.

"Qingran, you really haven't changed at all. You still wear G&C Chance perfume. The light scent matches your current temperament perfectly."

Lin Qingran stopped and turned her head. Seeing Gu Yihuai's expression of enjoyment, she suddenly felt a sense of disgust.

"Gu Yihuai, it's been two years, and you still disgust me just as much."

Gu Yihuai was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then frowned and shook his head.

"Qingran, you've been with Moxuan for three years, and you've become so bad. You speak so hurtfully. You weren't like this before."

"However, no matter what you look like, I still like you."

Lin Qingran's beautiful eyebrows furrowed, and then she heard Master Gu cursing from inside the house.

"You unfilial son! I should never have let you into the Gu family!"

"How dare you disobey me now, and even make your grandmother so angry that she has to be hospitalized! If I don't teach you a lesson today, I'm not a Gu!"

Old Master Gu has never had a good temper.

If Gu Moxuan were to encounter something like this, he would definitely suffer a beating.

Lin Qingran took a deep breath, deciding not to waste any more time with Gu Yihuai, and strode quickly into the house.

She was walking very fast, so she couldn't perfectly hide the fact that she was injured.

Gu Yihuai watched Lin Qingran's unsteady steps, a cold glint flashing in his deep eyes.
