The chief ex-husband won't let go of Yi Xiaobao

Lin Qingran took a deep breath, turned her gaze away from Old Madam Gu, and placed the water glass in her hand on the table.

As Mrs. Gu and Ms. Chen entered the house, she got up from the sofa and looked at them.

"Madam, Ms. Chen."

She greeted him calmly. When Ms. Chen saw the injury on Lin Qingran's forehead, her expression changed. She was about to walk to Lin Qingran's side when Old Mrs. Gu glared at her.

Ms. Chen could only awkwardly retract her steps, looking at Lin Qingran with some concern, and asked softly.

"Miss Lin, what happened to your forehead?"

Lin Qingran glanced at Old Madam Gu, then answered calmly.

"I suffered a minor injury, nothing serious."

Ms. Chen felt a little relieved after hearing this.

Ms. Chen had witnessed firsthand how much Gu Moxuan cared for Lin Qingran during this period.

Therefore, Ms. Chen knows what kind of choice is the right one.

After all, Gu Moxuan and Lin Qingran were already inseparable, and she couldn't stop Gu Moxuan, so at this moment she could only accept Lin Qingran in her heart.

But the old lady Gu in front of us is someone we can't afford to offend.

So Ms. Chen is now caught in the middle, which is a bit uncomfortable, but it doesn't stop her from trying to please both sides.

Grandma Gu walked in, glanced indifferently at Lin Qingran, and her eyes held a hint of ruthlessness.

"Qingran, you should know why I came here today to find you."

Lin Qingran looked at Old Madam Gu with a calm expression.

Her gaze fell on Old Madam Gu, her expression calm, her eyes indifferent as she looked at Old Madam Gu and nodded slightly.

"Grandma, you came to me because of Gu Yihuai, right?"

Ms. Chen looked puzzled upon hearing this.

She had been staying at Maple Forest Manor the whole time and had no idea what was going on here.

It wasn't until Grandma Gu asked her to come with her to find Lin Qingran that Ms. Chen vaguely felt that something might have happened.

Now, when Ms. Chen hears Lin Qingran mention Gu Yihuai, she almost immediately perks up her ears.

In Ms. Chen's mind, Gu Yihuai was also a thorn in her side.

After all, he was Wu Meifang's son, so Ms. Chen disliked Gu Yihuai from the bottom of her heart.

Moreover, Gu Yihuai had threatened her before.

Seeing that Old Mrs. Gu looked serious and her expression was particularly unpleasant, as if she were looking at Lin Qingran as an enemy, Ms. Chen then took Old Mrs. Gu's hand and said softly.

"Madam, let's sit down and talk this over."

Grandma Gu glanced indifferently at Ms. Chen, then pulled her hand back from Ms. Chen's, her eyes filled with disgust.

Ms. Chen immediately withdrew her hand sheepishly, her expression somewhat embarrassed.

Grandma Gu, leaning on her cane, sat down on the sofa opposite Lin Qingran, looked at Lin Qingran with a cold expression, and said angrily.

"What exactly happened yesterday? Why is Yihuai with you?"

Lin Qingran pursed her thin lips, and seeing the serious look on Old Madam Gu's face, she spoke softly.

"I was with him because he kidnapped me. I don't know why he got into trouble or who he offended. I think the investigators will look into these things."

Hearing Lin Qingran's calm words, Old Mrs. Gu's expression turned ugly. She then slammed her cane down, her face contorted with anger.

"You're talking nonsense. How could Yi Huai kidnap you?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingran took a deep breath.

Gu Yihuai did not kidnap her.

However, when Gu Yihuai was taken away by those people, he said that the Gu family must not know about this matter, otherwise it would be too complicated and he was worried that Gu Moyu would also get into trouble.

“But he did kidnap me, old lady. You should know what kind of person your grandson is. You also know that he tried to kill Mo Xuan a few years ago and hired someone to do it.”

Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Gu's face turned cold and somber.

She stared intently at Lin Qingran and said in a deep voice.

"You're talking nonsense. If Yi Huai was trying to kidnap you, why did those people still take Yi Huai away? I saw it clearly in the surveillance footage, showing Yi Huai being taken away."

"Those people came for you."

Lin Qingran frowned slightly upon hearing this.

Lin Qingran was not at all surprised that Old Mrs. Gu would have such thoughts.

After all, she had mistakenly thought those people were after her, which is why she drove away.

But in reality, those people were after Gu Yihuai.

Why would Zhao Xiang believe her? Because she knew that those people were after Gu Yihuai, so she believed that Lin Qingran was in a state of extreme panic at the time and had no idea what was going on.

Grandma Gu remained an observer throughout the entire incident, so she firmly believed that Gu Yihuai would not do anything to harm Lin Qingran.

Lin Qingran bit her lip and looked at Old Madam Gu with a fierce glint in her eyes. She knew that if she didn't act ruthlessly at this moment, Old Madam Gu would never believe her.

She glanced at Old Madam Gu, hardened her heart, and said in a cold voice.

"No, old lady, you're wrong. Those people weren't after me. They were after Gu Yihuai. As for why they were after Gu Yihuai, it must be because Gu Yihuai offended someone."

"Why is the old lady so confident that he won't hurt me?"

"Didn't my first child with Gu Moxuan die because of him?"

"Therefore, Gu Yihuai's kidnapping this time is just reaping what he sowed."

She had barely finished speaking when Old Mrs. Gu slapped her across the face.

Lin Qingran felt a burning pain on her cheeks.

"How could you hit someone?"

Aunt Wang, who was standing to the side, saw Lin Qingran being beaten and immediately went to Lin Qingran's side to protect her.

Lin Qingran turned her head slightly, her expression somewhat complicated, but she eventually calmed herself down, slowly raised her head, looked at Old Madam Gu, and said softly.

"What's wrong? Are you angry because Gu Yi's past crimes were mentioned?"

Grandma Gu took a deep breath, her expression changed, and she said angrily.

"Lin Qingran, you are such an ingrate! Our Gu family treated you so well back then, and liked you so much."

"Now you not only don't provide any clues, but you also make sarcastic remarks. You really make me look at you in a new light."

Lin Qingran frowned slightly as she looked at Old Madam Gu, who was panting heavily, and then said in a deep voice.

“Grandma Gu, you’re not feeling well, you should go home first. If you fall ill here, I can’t afford the responsibility.”

After she finished speaking, she looked at Aunt Wang standing to the side and then whispered.

"Aunt Wang, please see the guest out for me."

Ms. Chen sat to the side, her mind still reeling from what they had just said.

She only received one crucial piece of news: Gu Yihuai had been kidnapped.
