Chapter 680: Chapter 654: I Like Holding You 3
Tang Rongling was disappointed and turned away, leaving the sickroom. He sat tiredly on a bench nearby, feeling particularly irritated.
“Once again, it’s that mother-daughter pair, when your father brought Lin Yin into the house years ago, I said she is a jinx, yet your father was bent on having her married to you! He claimed she was the lucky star of our Gu family! When they had a little girl, I told him it was a baby jinx, but your father was stubborn. See what ended up happening, they had literally angered him to death.” The old woman held deep resentment against Lin Yin and her daughter.
“Mom, could you please refrain?” Gu Huai’an leadened voice sounded, his eyes were fixed on the woman lying on the bed.
Although Beiming Han has not met him lately, he sent a manager from Sheng Ming Corporation to talk to him. However, they were only giving him some minor projects. The work was laborious, and the profits were minimal. In the beginning, he didn’t mind it, but now he was discontent and desired to collaborate on bigger projects with Sheng Ming Corporation.
“And you, back in the day you were bewitched by her beauty! You married that Lin girl, leading to all these problems! Are you saying when I’m old and sick, I won’t even get the chance to stay in a good hospital?” The elderly Mrs. Gu was most concerned about this.
“Grandma, you can’t blame dad for this.” Gu Yunci reminded Mrs. Gu, skilfully shifting the blame onto Lin Yin and Gu Qingxin.
“Right, we should blame that pair of jinxed mother and daughter.” Mrs. Gu got more and more angry as she thought about it.
“Dad, what should we do if mom doesn’t wake up? Please make a decision!”
Gu YunCi clutched her mother’s hand tightly, her mother was her rock. If anything happened to Zhou Mantong, she would lose her only support.
“What can I do? I’m no doctor. If she doesn’t wake up, we should get a different doctor.”
As soon as Gu Huai’an’s words fell, the woman who had been unconscious made a moan.
Everyone tensely looked towards the woman lying on the bed. Zhou Mantong hummed for a bit and slowly opened her eyes.
“She’s awake.” Mrs. Gu was overjoyed.
Gu Huai’an also stepped forward, anxiously watching Zhou Mantong. After all, they were a long-married couple, he was naturally nervous.
Zhou Mantong stared at the ceiling lost mindedly. After a thorough examination by the doctor called over by Gu Huai’an, she finally regained her senses.
“Huai’an…” Zhou Mantong tearfully looked at the man beside the bed, her head throbbing as if it was about to explode.
“What the hell happened?! Tell us how you got this injury!” Gu Huai’an asked frowningly.
He only found out yesterday when he received a call from the hospital that Zhou Mantong had been injured and hospitalized. But the hospital was not aware of who brought her in.
“It was Qingxin and her mother… they hurt me!” Zhou Mantong only remembered getting mad at Gu Qingxin, grabbing a knife, and lunging at the mother and daughter duo.
She had no idea whether she struck them or not, all she knew was that her head suddenly started hurting drastically before everything went pitch-black.
It must have been those two who did something to her!
Tang RongLing was standing at the door, hearing Zhou Mantong’s words, his brow furrowed tightly.
Gu YunCi left the ward and saw Tang Rongling standing at the end of the corridor. She walked up to him and called out, “Ah Ling, why are you here alone?”
Tang Rongling turned to look at her and said lightly, “Nothing, if there is nothing else, I will leave first.”
“Ah Ling, have you started to despise me? Because my face is now disfigured.” Gu YunCi suddenly burst into tears.
