After stopping being a simp, the school heartthrob cried and begged to get back together.

Chapter 95 What did I do to offend you?

"As long as you know the way, that's fine." Huo Yubai's deep black eyes stared at me intently.

I chuckled and said, "I'm not going to hell. I'm so kind, I'll go to heaven someday."

"Hmm." Huo Yubai looked at me unfathomably: "I've done bad things, it seems I'm going to hell."

"Why have you become so superstitious?" I smiled and said, "Whether it's good or bad, you're going to see the King of Hell anyway, so don't think too much about it."

His dark eyes were deep: "Fine, I don't want to."

I was taken aback; he was quite obedient, actually.

"Take me to the hospital," I said lazily. "Gu Yun isn't at the hospital; I can get his leg treated there."

Huo Yubai looked at me meaningfully: "How long do you plan to treat him?"

"Of course we have to wait for him to stand up. We can't just leave him halfway through treatment, can we?" I shrugged. "Let's go."

He followed silently.

Gu Yunwei should have been discharged from the hospital much earlier, but he refused to leave.

I arrived at the ward.

Gu Yun was not sitting on the hospital bed, but looking at her phone.

His mother was not in the ward.

"The doctor said you can be discharged, why aren't you leaving?" I walked up to him and said, "You're taking up medical resources."

Gu Yunwei slightly raised her eyes: "It's too dangerous at home."

"You know," I said coldly. "But Gu Yunwei, you knew the pastries were poisoned and still ate them. Do you think I didn't know?"

"What, do you think I'm a scheming man?" Gu Yun didn't put down his phone completely, looking at me leisurely.

"Not entirely, but you took the bait willingly," I said calmly. "Aren't you afraid it might be highly poisonous?"

“At least, I got some things back.” Gu Yunwei took out a document from under his pillow: “Gu Heng was very generous; he gave up five percent of the shares in exchange for his mother’s freedom.”

"That's quite a generous gesture," I exclaimed.

Five percent of the Gu Group's shares generate huge annual dividends.

"He owns 40% of the company's shares, and he didn't even contribute that all by himself. You feel sorry for him?" Gu Yun glanced at me.

"I'm not feeling sorry for you, I'm envious," I said irritably.

Gu Yun chuckled lightly: "Then take it."

"What do you mean?" I asked, puzzled.

"You don't need to be envious, take it." Gu Yunwei said casually, "Take it if you like."

"Don't joke around." I waved my hand. "I'm not interested in your money."

Gu Yunwei's dark eyes were deep: "Is that so?"

"I'm here to treat your leg. You'll be discharged soon, and the ward can be given to someone who needs it." I frowned. "I hope you, a rich man, have some kindness in you."

"Fine, I'm leaving." Gu Yunwei chuckled softly, "You seem to really dislike people from the Gu family."

“You’re right.” I threw back the covers and took out silver needles: “I hate every person with the surname Gu equally, and I hate everyone associated with them!”

It was their family-oriented nature that almost caused me to lose my mother.

How could I possibly have a good impression of them?

I agreed to treat Gu Yunwei's leg for Old Madam Gu because I needed evidence.

That's it.

"I see." Gu Yunwei said thoughtfully, "I don't like them either, so we're the same in that respect."

I said nothing.

After the acupuncture treatment, I left.

Su Wanqing came in: "Son, Shen Yan is here?"

Gu Yunwei slowly covered his legs with the blanket, his handsome profile as cold as ice: "Mm."

Su Wanqing noticed his displeasure: "Did she upset you?"

"No," Gu Yunwei said coldly. "It was someone surnamed Gu who provoked me."

Su Wanqing: "..."

What is he saying?

Isn't his own surname Gu?

Mu Xi accompanied me to the dress shop to pick out a dress.

She knew I was being threatened.

"Why did you insist on agreeing to his request?" Mu Xi asked, puzzled.

“Because of Professor Ming,” I explained, “Many years ago, before Professor Ming had achieved fame and success, he met a girl, and the two fell deeply in love. However, the girl’s family arranged a marriage for her, which forcibly separated them.”

Mu Xi was shocked.

“The girl got pregnant, but her family gave her an abortion with a bowl of abortion pills. Later, she got married, went insane, and was then thrown into a mental hospital by her husband’s family. Professor Ming has been looking for her all these years, but there has been no news. I promised Professor Ming that I would find her.” I replied.

Mu Xi's eyes reddened after hearing this: "How could this happen? Didn't Professor Ming think of saving her back then?"

“He went to rescue her, but both his legs were broken, and it took him a long time to recover.” I sighed, “This incident is a lifelong pain for Professor Ming. He treats me like his own granddaughter, and I must help him find that girl.”

"But what if..." Mu Xi couldn't bear to say it.

"Even if she has passed away, I still want to tell him this news. If there really is a netherworld, I hope he can know, or go to find her, or wait for her, so that we can meet again," I said quietly.

Mu Xi patted my shoulder: "I understand. Professor Ming helped you save your mother and taught you a lot of skills. It's the right thing to do."

"Help me pick out a dress," I said with a smile.

Mu Xi picked up a black piece of clothing: "How about this one? Let's go for a dark style."

I shook my head.

"And this red one?" she asked again.

I sneered: "Aren't you afraid people will misunderstand and think I'm going to my own wedding?"

Mu Xi felt embarrassed.

I glanced at it and said, "This strapless purple one, isn't it?"

Mu Xi picked it up. "This one is truly beautiful. It has a mysterious and noble look. Isn't it mesmerizing!"

I got up and walked over. "Don't think too much about it. I just want to deal with it."

After I finished speaking, I went to change my clothes.

7:30 p.m.

Mu Xi drove me to the banquet entrance.

"Do you need me to pick you up?" she asked.

"No need." I put on my long black coat. "You should go home early; the driver will pick me up."

"Okay." Mu Xi looked at me with a smile.

I got out of the car leisurely and walked towards the banquet hall.

As I entered, I took off my coat.

Everyone present was looking at me.

I think it was that live stream that made me famous overnight, and now everyone knows me.

"That dress seems to be an exclusive design from QA."

"Really, this is the first time I've seen the real thing. Could it be a counterfeit? How could a university professor afford it?"

"But this dress is really beautiful, she looks even better in it."

"She's still not as pretty as Zhao Baixue. She looks much prettier in that pink dress she's wearing today, like a fairy!"

I sneered inwardly. If you're going to praise someone, just praise them. Why do you have to bring up such unlucky things?

But it was only after they said that I realized Zhao Baixue was there too?

Gu Heng really knows how to enjoy life.

"Shen Yan." Gu Heng walked towards me.

He was dressed in a black three-piece suit, looking handsome and elegant.

"President Gu is so handsome!"

"I wish I could be his girlfriend."

I sneered: "You think I could have gotten away without coming?"

Gu Heng smiled: "You sound angry. Did I offend you?"
