She pointed to the bodyguard standing outside the door.
"Oh, that was arranged by your father for your aunt’s personal safety," Nangong He said, actually quite satisfied with his son’s arrangements.
After so many things had happened one after another, he sometimes couldn’t help but wonder whether his grandson and daughter-in-law getting injured were merely accidents or if there was foul play involved. So, having extra precautions was always good.
Upon hearing his words, Nangong Feifei looked at the two bodyguards again, her heart inevitably filled with suspicion.
Why had bodyguards suddenly been assigned to watch over them? Could it be that her father had discovered something as well?
No, that shouldn’t be the case.
Lost in thought, she vaguely sensed someone approaching. She looked up and saw Qin Sijue and Gu Qiangwei.
Perhaps it was because she felt guilty, but when she thought of Qin Sijue searching for something in the stairwell that morning, she felt a tinge of panic.
Especially when she met Qin Sijue’s dark, sinister eyes, she couldn’t shake off the feeling, perhaps it was just her imagination, that he had discovered something. Or was it because of the previous hatred that he looked at her this way?
That look sent shivers down her spine.
Gu Qiangwei glanced at Nangong Feifei, then coldly passed by her and walked towards Tang Yuyan’s hospital room.
Hearing Nangong Feifei’s voice, Gu Qiangwei involuntarily paused, then turned around, her icy gaze staring straight at her.
"My mother and brother’s hospital rooms do not welcome you. Please don’t come here again in the future!"
She spoke righteously, mainly because she didn’t want Qin Sijue to continue uncovering anything that could be detrimental to her.
Couldn’t Qin Sijue be supposed to despise the Nangong Family? Why would he actively investigate Tang Yuyan’s fall?
Upon hearing his granddaughter’s words, Nangong He who was nearby couldn’t help but frown, "Feifei!"
Remembering that Gu Qiangwei had once saved his grandson, Nangong He couldn’t bring himself to dislike her now.
He was also a person clear about gratitude and grudges. He would always remember those who had helped him; repaying a kindness with enmity was not his style.
Gu Qiangwei’s visit to her daughter-in-law showed that she too distinguished clearly between gratitude and grudges and wouldn’t refuse to save his grandson just because of Feifei’s relationship.
But Gu Qiangwei let out a cold laugh upon hearing Nangong Feifei’s words.
"What are you laughing at!" Nangong Feifei frowned, clearly sensing mockery in that laughter.
Gu Qiangwei’s lips curled up, "Nangong Feifei, if I remember correctly, you aren’t actually Aunt Tang’s daughter, are you? Nor are you Xi’s real sister."
Her sudden statement turned Nangong Feifei’s face deathly pale.
Even Nangong He beside her was extremely shocked.
The fact that Feifei was not born to Yuyan was something the outside world did not know, including the Qin Family. How did Gu Qiangwei come to know this!?
Could it have been Yuyan who told her?
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Fearful that her identity as an illegitimate daughter would be exposed, Nangong Feifei immediately became both embarrassed and enraged, roaring at Gu Qiangwei.
Gu Qiangwei just laughed lightly, "Whether I’m talking nonsense, you know best in your heart."
"You... I’ll show you nonsense!"
In a fit of rage, Nangong Feifei raised her hand to slap Gu Qiangwei, but Gu Qiangwei easily caught her hand and then turned the tables, giving Nangong Feifei a slap instead!
If she hadn’t tried to hit her, Gu Qiangwei might have been able to hold back.
