“Ahem, I’ve… learned a lot.”
Gu Qingchen spoke a little awkwardly, but Rong Yu smiled meaninglessly. “That’s good too, so that he won’t disturb my mother.”
Alright, Gu Qingchen could tell that Rong Yu didn’t seem to like his father very much.
“There was a problem with the two glasses of wine yesterday.”
Gu Qingchen finally had a face-to-face discussion with Rong Yu about yesterday’s matter. Both of them could tell that there was something wrong with the glass of wine that Rong Cheng wanted to give her. However, they did not expect that there was also something wrong with Rong Cheng’s own glass of wine.
Rong Yu nodded, “It seems that Rong Cheng was also set up by someone. Who do you think is the person behind the scenes?”
Rong Yu turned to look at Gu Qingchen and raised his eyebrows slightly. He also wanted to know how smart Gu Qingchen was.
Gu Qingchen hesitated for a moment before speaking, “The wine was given to Rong Cheng by Fang Yi. Apparently, Rong Cheng also knew that there was something wrong with the glass of wine he gave me, but he didn’t know that there was something wrong with his own glass. Although Fang Yi and I have some grudges, she would most probably attack me only. She wouldn’t move Rong Cheng for no reason. So… it shouldn’t be Fang Yi, but someone else. This person used Fang Yi to plot against me and Rong Cheng at the same time.”
After all, this was Gu Qingchen’s first time at the banquet. Not many people knew her before. They both knew her and were hostile towards Rong Cheng.
Gu Qingchen pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked up at Rong Yu’s indifferent eyes.
“Could it be… Rong Rui!”
That’s right!
Rong Rui was the most likely.
Although Rong Rui did not have any conflict with her, she could read from Rong Rui’s heart that he was a hypocrite. On the surface, he was polite, generous, and simple, but in fact, he had his own plans in his heart, and his mind was full of conspiracies.
He had schemed against Gu Qingchen and Rong Cheng at the same time. No one could guess what he was up to.
And if she and Rong Cheng made a fool of themselves at the banquet, she was Rong Yu’s person on the surface. If such an unsightly incident happened, Rong Cheng and Rong Yu would be the ones who would be embarrassed.
The two of them might even have a conflict because of this incident!
Rong Qingtian and a few elders were watching from the side. When they saw how unbearable Rong Cheng was and how “indecent” Gu Qingchen was, they would definitely be disappointed in Rong Cheng. For the sake of Rong Yu’s reputation, they would definitely chase away Gu Qingchen, the doctor who could possibly cure Rong Yu’s body, and never hire her again!
The more Gu Qingchen thought about it, the more chills she got. If she did not know how to read minds, she would really think that Rong Cheng and Fang Yi had harmed her. She would never have thought that it was the outsider Rong Rui who did it.
However, these were all Gu Qingchen’s guesses. There was no evidence at the moment, so she couldn’t be sure.
When Rong Yu heard the name “Rong Rui” from Gu Qingchen’s mouth, he was obviously a little surprised. He knew that Gu Qingchen was smart, but he didn’t expect her to be this smart. He didn’t give her any advice, but she quickly guessed Rong Rui. She had a really good potential. She definitely had the right to stand by his side.
“You are indeed a smart little fox.”
Gu Qingchen’s speculation only received one sentence from Rong Yu… well, it could be considered a compliment.
“You know it was him who did it?”
Gu Qingchen stared at Rong Yu. Since Rong Yu said so, it must be Rong Rui!
Rong Yu chuckled and said casually, “I can’t think of anyone else in the Rong family besides him who could think of such a method.”
It seemed that Rong Yu knew what kind of person Rong Rui was. Gu Qingchen heaved a sigh of relief. She was worried that Rong Yu would think that she was trying to drive a wedge between them.
“It seems that your cousin has always treated you as the pain in their ass.”
She had no conflict with Rong Rui. Rong Rui had attacked her because of Rong Yu.
Thinking of this, Gu Qingchen added, “It seems that I have been implicated by you.”
If Rong Yu had not insisted on bringing her to the banquet, she would not have been implicated for no reason, much less.
Thinking of what happened this morning, Gu Qingchen felt depressed. Her first kiss was gone just like that. It was really making her anxious!
Rong Yu, on the other hand, smiled. The curve of his lips was very beautiful, and his eyes were sparkling. Rong Yu’s face had a hint of a teasing smile, “You were indeed implicated by me, but… I also paid the price last night, didn’t I?”
Pfft!
Gu Qingchen almost choked. Was it really good to talk about such a topic in front of his mother’s grave?
Initially, she had tried her best to be calm when she was with Rong Yu, as if nothing had happened yesterday. However, Rong Yu would mention it from time to time, always reminding her that she had stolen Rong Yu’s first kiss.
Rong Yu knew that it was enough. He did not continue to tease Gu Qingchen. He only said, “Rong Rui is targeting me. I will handle this matter. Doctor Gu, help me light the incense for my mother.”
Gu Qingchen did not think much about it. She watched Rong Yu light the incense in his hand. She quietly looked at the grave for a long time before passing the incense to Gu Qingchen. Gu Qingchen was about to insert the incense in her hand into the incense burner when she heard Rong Yu Say, “You should also pay your respects. Mom, this is Gu Qingchen, and she is now my personal physician.”
Gu Qingchen felt that it was a little strange. However, since Rong Yu had said that Yuan Luoyu was a senior and a deceased person, it was indeed the first time she came to pay her respects.
There were no other incense sticks around, so Rong Yu brought his own. She could only take Rong Yu’s incense and pay her respects to Yuan Luoyu three times.
“Hello, Auntie. I’m Gu Qingchen, Rong Yu’s personal physician. It’s my first time seeing you today, so I’m not prepared. I apologized for being rude. However, I’ll do my best to treat Rong Yu. Don’t worry.”
Gu Qingchen spoke very sincerely. That was indeed what she thought in her heart.
All along, Gu Qingchen had always felt that a person like Rong Yu was really rare. If god had taken his life so easily, it would be a great pity for mankind.
Gu Qingchen finished the incense for Yuan Luoyu and walked back. Rong Yu stared at the incense for a long time. When the incense was almost burnt out, a smile appeared in his eyes. He said to Gu Qingchen, “Let’s go.”
Gu Qingchen thought that Rong Yu would talk more with his mother. She did not expect him to keep staring at the incense. Perhaps she was there, he talked to his mother in his heart.
Since Rong Yu had paid his respects to his mother, Gu Qingchen walked behind Rong Yu and pushed Rong Yu’s wheelchair slowly.
Butler Qin wanted to go forward, but after thinking for a while, he did not move. He stood far away and waited for Gu Qingchen and Rong Yu to come over.
Butler Qin saw a beautiful girl pushing a wheelchair from afar. The two of them walked on the quiet path. The sun shone down on the two of them, giving them an indescribable sense of harmony and tranquility.
For a moment, Butler Qin felt a little emotional. He had always thought that his young master would always be alone. He did not expect that one day, a girl like Gu Qingchen would barge into Rong Yu’s life.
Young Master was able to bring Gu Qingchen to pay respects to madam. It seemed that young master had made up his mind.
