Seeing her pitiful appearance and thinking about the slap she had taken today, Gu Zhihan could no longer bear to scold her. Instead, he picked her up horizontally and carried her away, "Let’s go home with me."
Mengmeng didn’t dare to defy the man and obediently followed him.
It was Cheng Suisui who pretended to sob in utter heartbreak, "My Mengmeng..."
Her words just happened to be heard by Gu Zhihan. The man instantly stopped in his tracks and turned his head to look at her, saying sternly and seriously, "She’s not yours, she’s mine."
Big brother, it was just a joke, do you have to take it so seriously?
Mengmeng was also baffled, "Gu Zhihan, do you really need to be so pedantic?"
Gu Zhihan stated without a doubt.
After the man put her in the car, he instructed the driver to drive off while he sat in the back with the young girl.
Once he had put her down, the man tenderly reached out to part her hair and looked at her with concern, "Does it still hurt now?"
"It feels much better after applying medicine," Mengmeng said with a casual smile, trying to reassure him, "Don’t worry about it anymore!"
The more she dismissed it, the more distressed Gu Zhihan felt, "I will find out who the person who hit you today is."
"Why look for him?" Mengmeng hadn’t understood his words yet.
"To seek justice for you," Gu Zhihan would never let the young girl suffer for nothing.
Hearing this, Mengmeng quickly shook her head, "No, no, I was also at fault today."
"Even if you were at fault, so what?" said Gu Zhihan, who did not care at all, his well-defined fingers affectionately weaving through her soft black hair.
"Gu Zhihan, don’t be a man who can’t tell right from wrong. Moreover, making a big deal out of this would be bad for both the school and the hospital," Mengmeng swung his arm, sincerely hoping he would change his mind.
What’s done is done, let go where you can.
Seeing this, Gu Zhihan sighed and patted her head, "Alright, I’ll listen to you."
He said that, but Gu Zhihan still very much wanted to teach the other party a lesson.
However, perhaps fate was on their side, and without Gu Zhihan having to do anything, the man himself got into an accident.
Here’s what happened.
The next day, the swelling on Mengmeng’s face had mostly gone down, so she returned to her volunteer post.
It wasn’t long before she heard the ambulance’s siren.
Instinctively, she looked over, and to her shock, she saw the man who had hit her the day before with his leg covered in blood and glass shards, screaming incessantly.
"Is this person the one who hit me yesterday?" Mengmeng was dazed by the hit yesterday, so she hadn’t really remembered the man’s face, just a rough idea, and thus she wasn’t sure when she saw someone who looked similar.
But Cheng Suisui had seen everything clearly and immediately nodded, "That’s right, it’s him!"
"Well, look at that, he hit someone yesterday, and now he’s gotten his comeuppance!" Cheng Suisui’s voice had a hint of schadenfreude as she spoke.
Mengmeng was at fault yesterday, but this man was even more so.
Now he was truly getting his just deserts!
Watching the man being rushed to emergency, Mengmeng seemed to think of something and immediately called Gu Zhihan.
Upon answering, a magnetic voice came from the other end of the line.
Luo Mengmeng had something to ask, so she got straight to the point, "Today at the hospital, I saw the man who hit me get into an accident. Did you do this?"
"Do you think your husband is that despicable?" Gu Zhihan responded with dissatisfaction, "I didn’t touch him."
Mengmeng let out a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
It wasn’t that she was worried about the man, but she was concerned that this might cause trouble for Gu Zhihan. After all, he was the CEO of a listed company. If this sort of thing was exposed, both he and the company would be criticized heavily.
Just as Mengmeng had breathed a sigh of relief, she then heard the man say, "However, I am quite pleased!"
Someone who bullied his wife was dealt with by karma. How could he not be pleased?
