When her husband asked her that, Tang Yuyan was reminded of the scene right before she fell unconscious.
"I remember after leaving the gynecologist’s office, I wanted to return to Xixi’s ward, but the elevator seemed to be broken, so I took the stairs..." she recalled, "and then, halfway through, it felt like my foot missed the step—no, it’s not right, it felt like I stepped on something, slipped, and then I fell down."
Nangong Mingchuan showed her the pearl inside the translucent bag.
Seeing the pink pearl, Tang Yuyan felt unfamiliar and frowned, "I don’t know what I stepped on."
Nangong Mingchuan didn’t speak; instead, he lowered his eyelids.
The scene of their conversation at the door of the hospital room was fully witnessed by Nangong Feifei, who was inside.
Her entire face changed when she saw that pink pearl!
She had cleaned up the pearls afterward, so why was there still one left?
Could it be that Qin Sijue had really found something out?
Thinking of this, her heart grew increasingly uneasy.
If her father knew she had tried to harm Tang Yuyan, he would definitely not let her off! What should she do? What should she do!?
Standing there, her hands tightly clenched, she felt somewhat panicked for a moment.
After leaving the hospital, Gu Qiangwei sat in the passenger seat, staring constantly at Qin Sijue, who was driving.
At the crossroads, Qin Sijue stopped the car, turned his head to look at the person in the passenger seat, a shallow curve on his lips, his smile ambiguous and profound.
Unable to resist, Gu Qiangwei glanced at him, then asked, "What did you show my father just now?"
The green light came on, and he started the car, turning the steering wheel.
"Your mother didn’t accidentally fall down the stairs."
Upon hearing this, Gu Qiangwei’s eyes widened in shock.
"Then what? Someone wanted to kill my mom?"
"Not sure, but it’s very likely."
"Did you investigate?"
"Mm. But only halfway."
"Why didn’t you continue?"
He turned his head, looked at her, "After all, it’s your family’s matter, it’s not appropriate for me to intervene."
She looked at him, suddenly agreeing, and turned her head, "True, you are an outsider after all."
..." Qin Sijue furrowed his brows, sensing a tang of acidity in her words.
"No matter how much of an outsider I am, you are still my wife!"
"That might not be necessarily true." Gu Qiangwei said.
A sudden brake, Qin Sijue parked the car on the side of the road.
"What, you want to marry someone else?"
She remained silent, not giving a definite answer, to frustrate him!
"Who do you want to marry?"
"There are so many men, I haven’t figured it out yet."
His dark eyes narrowed, "It seems, I haven’t ’satisfied’ you well enough, letting you entertain the idea of marrying someone else?"
Faintly sensing the danger, Gu Qiangwei turned her head and saw his smile becoming more ambiguous.
"I was just kidding!" Seeing him press closer, Gu Qiangwei immediately raised her hands to block him, then quickly admitted her mistake!
"That’s more like it."
He returned to his seat, started the car again, and headed to the Commander Residence.
If it weren’t for worrying that his grandparents might be anxious, he really wanted to ’punish’ her severely just now, to see if she would dare to speak of marrying someone else in the future!
Ending the previous jest, Gu Qiangwei suddenly remembered something.
She turned her head, eyeing his chiseled profile.
