She went to the wrong table on a blind date and ended up getting married to a billionaire CEO.
Chapter 81 Good people are not rewarded
Su Maiqi left Chenxing Building at 6:00 PM and saw Gu Tingyu's car parked at the corner of the company.
Gu Tingyu has a driver, but for daily commutes within the city, he still prefers to drive himself.
Su Maiqi saw Gu Tingyu's profile from afar, deep in thought, his usual serious and indifferent demeanor.
Suddenly, the image of him being drunk and crazy popped into her mind, and she couldn't help but chuckle; people are so funny, who would have thought that President Gu would have such a side in private?
Gu Tingyu looked up from inside the car and saw Su Maiqi's radiant smile; she was wearing a white down jacket, her long hair was loose, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on her profile; her smile was like a hazy flower.
For a moment, Gu Tingyu was also somewhat lost in thought.
This woman possesses a calmness and restraint beyond that of ordinary women. She always appears unfazed by praise or criticism, and seems unperturbed by anything that happens.
But sometimes she acts like a child, with a bright and innocent smile.
When she's asleep, she's as beautiful as a little angel.
He reached out and waved to Su Maiqi, who waved back and quickly walked towards the car.
Unaware of the surprised looks on the faces of those nearby, a few flashes of light went off.
Su Maiqi settled into the passenger seat, and Gu Tingyu was about to start the car when his phone suddenly rang; the moment he answered the call, Gu Tingyu's expression changed instantly.
There was an unusual panic in his voice: "Which hospital... Can his leg be saved? Do everything you can to save him... I'm coming right away."
Su Maiqi felt her heart leap into her throat.
Gu Tingyu turned the car around and started it quickly while saying to Su Maiqi, "Mo Yan was in a car accident and his leg is badly injured."
"Okay, let's go to the hospital quickly." Seeing Gu Tingyu's expression, Su Maiqi didn't dare to say anything more and subconsciously grabbed the handrail on the car.
As expected, Gu Tingyu drove the car at the fastest speed he could, even running several red lights.
Although it was rush hour in Yuncheng and there were many cars, Gu Tingyu's driving skills far exceeded Su Maiqi's expectations. He could always drive precisely through any gaps in the road.
Su Maiqi sensed Gu Tingyu's nervousness, partly because he was worried about Mo Yan. Su Maiqi knew that although Mo Yan was Gu Tingyu's assistant, he was also like a brother to him.
In his early years, Mo Yan was also a scion of a wealthy family. He and Gu Tingyu were classmates since junior high school and were very good friends. Later, when the Mo family fell into decline, he followed Gu Tingyu and stayed by his side as his assistant.
But actually, they also have some overseas collaborative projects. Although it's unclear what those projects are, they sound like they're quite large in scale.
Gu Tingyu usually made phone calls from home without deliberately avoiding Su Maiqi. Su Maiqi gradually learned a bit about Gu Tingyu's situation, including the close relationship between him and Mo Yan.
But if Gu Tingyu doesn't say it, Su Maiqi will never ask him.
They arrived at the hospital quickly, and Mo Yan had already been wheeled into the operating room.
Su Maiqi waited with Gu Tingyu outside the operating room. Gu Tingyu was on the phone, inquiring in detail about the incident.
Mo Yan had the accident in the suburbs, on his way back to the city after finishing some business; there wasn't much traffic at the time, and a large truck came rushing out of control from the opposite lane.
Mo Yan instinctively jerked the steering wheel, trying to avoid the disaster, but it was too late. The truck grazed past the driver's side, then overturned and landed on top of Mo Yan's car.
The car was severely deformed in the crash, and Mo Yan was trapped in the driver's seat, his consciousness gradually fading.
When the police arrived, they found that Mo Yan's leg was severely trapped. In order to avoid causing further injury, it took a long time to cut it open and lift him into the ambulance.
After photos were taken to document the scene, all the vehicles had been towed away; the other truck driver was also unconscious and was being treated at the same hospital.
Initial hospital examinations revealed that Mo Yan suffered only a serious leg injury, with no other serious injuries to his body. However, the truck driver suffered a severe head injury and massive bleeding during the rollover, making his situation more critical.
Gu Tingyu frowned as he looked at the video of the incident that had been sent to his phone.
The weather and road conditions were good that day. The oncoming truck suddenly lost control, changed direction instantly in a short time, and was traveling at an extremely high speed.
There's a sense of "desperate effort" about them.
Gu Tingyu wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he vaguely saw the truck driver give a strange smile before the accident.
His intuition told him that this was no ordinary car accident.
Someone is deliberately targeting Mo Yan, trying to cut off Gu Tingyu's arm.
Mo Yan's identity is no secret within the circle. He is Gu Tingyu's right-hand man, Gu Tingyu's most trusted person, and he is also extremely capable.
If someone wanted to bring down Gu Tingyu, it wouldn't be surprising if they broke one of his arms first.
In fact, over the years, there have been quite a few people who have tried to drive a wedge between him and Mo Yan, as well as various temptations such as money, power, and beauty.
Fortunately, their friendship was built during their youth. They went through many things together and supported each other through difficult times, forging a very strong bond.
So, seeing that sowing discord wasn't working, are they now taking direct action?
Thinking of this, Gu Tingyu felt all the blood rush to his head, and he felt dizzy.
His hands were clenched into fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white from the excessive force.
Su Maiqi stood to the side, feeling somewhat at a loss. She wanted to say something, but no sound came out as she moved her lips.
She wanted to walk over and gently pat Gu Tingyu's back, imagining that he had once held her hand, and hold his hand to give him some strength.
Yet he felt unable to get close. Gu Tingyu exuded an aura of anger, as if he wanted to shatter everything that approached him.
Just as Su Maiqi was at a loss, the phone suddenly rang.
It was Lin Manlin; we had arranged to have dinner together tonight. But Su Maiqi and Gu Tingyu hadn't arrived yet, so she called.
Mo Yan's accident was sudden, Gu Tingyu was nervous, and Su Maiqi was also a bit stunned. They didn't even think to message their sister and Lin Manlin to cancel their dinner appointment.
Upon hearing the news of Mo Yan's accident, Su Mailou on the other end of the phone anxiously asked, "What happened to Mr. Mo? Is his life in danger? Is he still in the operating room?"
Lin Manlin had never met Mo Yan; she only knew of him from Su Maiqi.
Su Mairou had interacted with Mo Yan several times, and he had helped her on several occasions. Su Mairou's impression of him was that he was kind and gentle.
Why do good people not get good rewards?
After explaining the situation to Lin Manlin and her sister, Su Maiqi finally felt completely calm. She turned her head and glanced at Gu Tingyu, who was fidgeting.
He turned around and went downstairs.
