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

Chapter 431 Breaking down in tears

Gu Moxuan saw Ms. Chen chasing after them and snatching the cane from Old Mrs. Gu's hand. Now Old Mrs. Gu is being helped by the maid.

Ms. Chen continued to beat Gu Quanping with her cane.

Seeing the entire Gu family in chaos, Gu Moxuan, who had been furious just moments before, suddenly calmed down.

He glanced coldly at Wu Meifang, then released her hand, grabbed Ms. Chen's cane, and said in a low voice.

"Okay, Mom, let's go back."

When Ms. Chen heard Gu Moxuan call her, her expression paused for a moment, and then tears of emotion streamed down her face.

Gu Moxuan took the cane from her hand, threw it at the feet of the old lady, and then said in a deep voice.

"Remember your words. If Gu Yihuai returns to the Gu family, then I will be even with your Gu family. Don't come to me if there are any problems with the Gu family in the future."

The cane made a crisp sound when it was thrown to the ground.

When Grandma Gu heard Gu Moxuan's words, her expression changed.

She moved her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but Gu Moxuan had already stepped out of the Gu family home.

Wu Meifang slumped to the ground, dejected.

Gu Quanping watched Gu Moxuan's departing figure with a troubled expression. He eventually sat down on the sofa. Throughout the whole process, he was the one who felt the most frustrated.

But the current conflicts in the Gu family exist because of him.

He scratched his head in frustration, looking annoyed.

The Gu family fell into silence because of the power of Gu Moxuan and Ms. Chen.

With the help of the maid, Mrs. Gu sat down on the sofa.

She doesn't have much strength in her legs and usually spends a lot of time in a wheelchair.

Her aged face was filled with sorrow, and as she heard Wu Meifang sobbing, she silently shed tears as well.

"In the end, I was wrong, Mei Fang. I should have listened to you and not let Gu Moxuan return to the Gu family. Then perhaps Yi Huai wouldn't be like this today."

"It's your mother's fault, and it's my fault, Yihuai."

Hearing what the old lady Gu said, Gu Quanping felt even more guilty.

If it weren't for the issues between him and Ms. Chen, the Gu family wouldn't be in this state now.

Gu Quanping immediately knelt down in front of Old Madam Gu and hurriedly apologized.

"Mom, please don't be like this. It's all my fault. It's all my fault. I'm sorry to you, I'm sorry to the Gu family, and I'm sorry to Meifang."

This time, Grandma Gu did not answer Gu Quanping's question, but simply turned her head to look at the scenery outside the window.

She waved and whispered to the maid beside her.

"Go open the window for me."

Upon hearing this, the servant paused for a moment, not daring to object, and immediately went to the window and opened it.

The weather in the northern part of the city has been extremely cold lately, with biting winds outside. It should snow in a few days.

Grandma Gu looked out the window with a blank expression. She didn't speak for a long time, just watched quietly.

Not long after, she closed her eyes, and her hands, which were on the wheelchair, fell to their sides.

Her head drooped to one side, and Gu Quanping looked extremely shocked upon seeing this.

He immediately reached out to help the old lady Gu.

"Mom, Mom, don't scare me, don't scare me."

Upon hearing Gu Quanping's voice, Wu Meifang scrambled over.

"Mom, what's wrong? Mom?"

She slapped Old Mrs. Gu's face, but there was no reaction.

At this, the people taking care of Old Mrs. Gu all began to sob quietly.

Grandma Gu has passed away.

The Gu family was plunged into tears.

Gu Yihuai was found and taken to the hospital on the afternoon that Old Madam Gu passed away.

His injuries were severe; his attacker had tampered with his tongue, rendering him unable to speak, and had also broken his hands.

Upon receiving the news, Yan Sui immediately rushed to the hospital.

The Gu family is still grieving the passing of their matriarch.

When the hospital notified the Gu family, only Liu Qian, Wu Meifang, and Gu Moyu came to visit Gu Yihuai at the hospital.

Gu Moxuan sat in a chair, waiting at the entrance of the emergency room.

When Wu Meifang arrived, her steps were somewhat unsteady.

"Yihuai, he'll be alright, right? Moxuan, Yihuai will be alright, right?"

Wu Meifang walked up to Gu Moxuan, stopped, and kept a distance of one meter from him.

Her tone was no longer as sharp as it had been at the Gu family's house. When she looked at Gu Moxuan, she spoke with extra caution, as if she was worried about offending him.

"Mo Xuan... answer me."

Her voice was filled with sobs. Gu Moxuan looked up at her, frowned, and finally said in a cold voice.

"There is no danger to his life."

Upon hearing Gu Moxuan's answer, Wu Meifang breathed a huge sigh of relief, her expression filled with pity, almost as if she were about to collapse to the ground.

She leaned against the wall, her eyes fixed on the door of the emergency room.

Gu Moxuan glanced at her, then stood up from his seat and said indifferently.

"You can sit here and wait; it should be a while longer."

Upon hearing this, Wu Meifang paused for a moment, then slowly sat down in her chair.

She felt as if all her strength had been drained away, and even while sitting in the chair, she needed to hold tightly to the handrail beside her.

Seeing Gu Moxuan about to leave, she reached out and grabbed his sleeve as he walked past her, whispering something.

"Mo Xuan, your grandmother has passed away. You should go back and visit her."

Her voice choked as she said this, and tears streamed down her face.

Now that Gu Yihuai has been found, Wu Meifang's prejudice against Gu Moxuan is not so deep anymore.

Her actions at the Gu family's house were far too impulsive.

She wanted to apologize to Gu Moxuan, but the words wouldn't come out.

So at this moment, she only told Gu Moxuan the news of Old Madam Gu's death and then chose to remain silent.

Gu Moxuan stopped, a hint of distress appearing in his eyes, but his expression remained unchanged.

He glanced at Wu Meifang indifferently, then said in a deep voice.

“I promised her that after I found Gu Yihuai, I would sever all ties with the Gu family, so the old lady’s death has nothing to do with me.”

After he finished speaking, he walked away without looking back.

As Wu Meifang watched Gu Moxuan's departing figure, she slowly rose from her seat. Just as she was about to say something, she saw the lights in the emergency room go out.

Soon the emergency room door was opened from the inside.

The doctor came out wearing a white coat, and Wu Meifang immediately rushed forward.

"Doctor, how is my son?"

Wu Meifang excitedly grabbed the doctor's arm, and the doctor replied politely.

"He's out of danger, but Young Master Gu may never be able to speak again. The other party tampered with his vocal cords."

Upon hearing this, Wu Meifang's face immediately turned pale, and she slumped back into her chair.

Seeing this, the doctor could only say a few nice words to comfort Wu Meifang.

Liu Qian held Gu Moyu's hand tightly. Hearing the doctor's words and seeing Wu Meifang looking like she had been deeply traumatized, she quickly whispered words of comfort.

"Mom, no matter what, now that Yihuai has been found, the only thing left is the communication issue. We can find another renowned doctor. With today's advanced technology, that will definitely be helpful."

Wu Meifang looked pained. Soon, Gu Yihuai was wheeled out of the emergency room by medical staff and transferred to another ward.

Throughout the entire process, Wu Meifang was sobbing uncontrollably.

Liu Qian, Gu Yihuai's wife, remained very calm.
