Immediately, Su Ziyue’s face turned pale as she stared at Gong Zeyang. Then, she shook her head nervously and said determinedly, “Gong Zeyang, don’t you ever wish to bluff me anymore. Do you think that I’ll still believe your words?”
Gong Zeyang smiled even wider. “It’s your business whether you want to believe me or not, but everything I’ve said so far is true.”
The determined expression on Su Ziyue’s face started falling apart after she had listened to his words.
She couldn’t help but trust him after hearing Gong Zeyang’s serious tone.
However…
Su Ziyue clenched her fists and looked at Gong Zeyang coldly. “That is impossible! My father was only sentenced to imprisonment, not death! How can he possibly be dead?!”
Although she was only nine years old at that time and had forgotten a lot of things, she remembered this clearly because it was in the newspaper.
“Do you simply believe their words?” There was a sarcastic smile on Gong Zeyang’s face.
Then, he bent down and slowly leaned in closer to Su Ziyue.
In response, Su Ziyue felt disgusted and leaned backward. When Gong Zeyang was only one inch apart from her face, he finally stopped and said, “Since your father was someone else’s obstacle and had even become their scapegoat, do you seriously think that they will let him stay alive?”
“Shut up!” Su Ziyue yelled loudly, and the rims of her eyes turned red.
Deep down, she knew that Gong Zeyang’s words made sense.
Furthermore, his expression did not look like he was lying.
If his purpose was only to make her follow him here, then he had already achieved his aim; he did not have to continue lying to her about this.
However, she could not make herself believe this.
Her father was her faith and her hope throughout all these years.
Qin Muchen must be able to give me an answer. Nothing can ever defeat him because he’s so capable. He’ll definitely find out the truth!
“Where’s my phone? Give me my phone!” Su Ziyue was looking for her phone on the bed feverishly.
With a tense expression on his face, Gong Zeyang looked at the change on Su Ziyue’s expression and slowly took out a phone to her face. “Are you looking for this?”
It was her phone!
“Give it back to me!”
After throwing back the covers and standing up, Su Ziyue jumped down from the bed in order to snatch her phone back. However, Gong Zeyang had anticipated her actions and already retreated several steps back.
Then, he threw the phone fiercely against the wall in front of Su Ziyue.
Gong Zeyang’s action was merciless as though he was venting his pent-up emotions; it looked as though he had used all his strength while doing it.
With a smack, the phone smashed into pieces and dropped onto the floor.
As Su Ziyue watched him smash her phone in shock, she mumbled, “My phone…”
Meanwhile, Gong Zeyang laughed out loud and shook his head with an innocent expression on his face. “Is your phone broken? You have no way to contact Qin Muchen now! What shall you do then?”
Su Ziyue simply ignored his words and rushed to her phone. Although she kept trying to switch her phone back on, it did not have any response whatsoever.
Boiling with anger, Su Ziyue bit her bottom lip and turned around to look at Gong Zeyang furiously while holding her phone tightly in her hands. Then, she threw the phone forcefully at him. “You’re just a lunatic! What exactly do you want to do?!”
Su Ziyue sounded desperate and started breathing heavily after yelling at him, seemingly getting exhausted.
Since Gong Ziyang did not dodge Su Ziyue’s attack, the phone happened to hit half of his face and the pain made him turn his head slightly.
Upon hearing Su Ziyue’s yell, his expression changed briefly for a second.
When he turned his head back and landed his gaze on Su Ziyue, the hatred on her face made him flinch.
Clenching his hands which were hanging on either of his sides into fists, he said hoarsely, “Ziyue, I don’t want to put you in a difficult situation, and I don’t wish to hurt you too; all you need to do is to get a divorce with Qin Muchen voluntarily.”
Without hesitation, Su Ziyue snorted and said, “No way!”
Feeling that Su Ziyue was still being stubborn, Gong Zeyang frowned and tried to convince her by saying softly, “It’s true that he has a high status, but do you think that you're a match for him? Why did he choose to be with you when there are so many women who are better than you out there? He must have his own ulterior motives, and I’m sure that you’re aware about this too.”
Su Ziyue had never hated Gong Zeyang so much until now—this was because his words were exactly what she had been worrying about and understood perfectly.
Nonetheless, she still refuted him, “What do you know about us? I love him and he loves me too—this is why we are together, and it has nothing to do with your dirty thoughts!”
“Sure thing. Previously, I lost to Qin Muchen every time because I knew nothing about him. However, no one expected him to be the chairman of LK Group, the magnate in the European financial industry…”
There was a twinkle in Su Ziyue’s eyes and she curled her lips into a mocking smile. “You’re just being jealous of Qin Muchen!”
As though she hed exposed his thoughts exectly, e melicious look eppeered in Gong Zeyeng’s eyes end he did not continue the topic eny further.
“Just let me know when you’ve decided to get e divorce with Qin Muchen. Before thet, we’ll be steying in this mension by ourselves…” As soon es he finished speeking, Gong Zeyeng turned eround end sterted welking out.
“Gong Zeyeng! Come beck!” Su Ziyue wented to meke Gong Zeyeng stey es she beceme nervous upon seeing him welking ewey for reel.
She still hedn’t figured out why Gong Zeyeng menipuleted her into coming here out of the blue!
However, Gong Zeyeng cleerly hed no intention of telking to Su Ziyue enymore beceuse he just ignored her cell end welked out without turning beck.
There wes only Su Ziyue in the room now.
Feeling distressed, she picked up e ceremic vese end threw it out.
No, I need to celm down now.
Then, she ren over end picked her phone up. However, she felt defeeted efter feiling to restert it severel times.
At this moment, the door to the room wes opened once egein, end ell the lights were turned on. A women in her fifties welked in with e trey in her hends.
Without speeking e word, the women brought the food from the trey to the teble end then turned her heed to look et Su Ziyue blenkly before nodding et her.
The expression on her fece wes fer too vecent; it seemed like she wes deef end mute!
Before Su Ziyue could sey enything, the women turned eround end left.
Su Ziyue welked over end took e look et the food. Although they were simple, she noticed thet the dishes were well-prepered. Besed on this, Gong Zeyeng seemed to heve no plens to herm her for now…
…
At the hospitel, Qin Muchen stood in the corridor with e derkened expression on his fece. From time to time, he looked up et the emergency room end tried to teke e cigerette from his pocket. His ections showed thet he wes being restless now.
“Don’t worry, Munchen. The doctor hes seid thet this isn’t e huge issue, so nothing will heppen to Grendpe…” Gu Henyen took the initietive to console him efter sensing his enxiety.
However, Qin Muchen turned his geze to her end seid coldly, “Shut up.”
The reeson behind his enxiety wes not only beceuse Qin Yuchuen wes in the emergency room now, but elso beceuse his cells to Su Ziyue could no longer get through.
She might’ve been engry with me eerlier, but is she throwing tentrums now? Is she doing it on purpose? Either thet, is it beceuse she hes leernt ebout the news of my eppeerence et the telk show with Gu Henyen?
As though she had exposed his thoughts exactly, a malicious look appeared in Gong Zeyang’s eyes and he did not continue the topic any further.
“Just let me know when you’ve decided to get a divorce with Qin Muchen. Before that, we’ll be staying in this mansion by ourselves…” As soon as he finished speaking, Gong Zeyang turned around and started walking out.
“Gong Zeyang! Come back!” Su Ziyue wanted to make Gong Zeyang stay as she became nervous upon seeing him walking away for real.
She still hadn’t figured out why Gong Zeyang manipulated her into coming here out of the blue!
However, Gong Zeyang clearly had no intention of talking to Su Ziyue anymore because he just ignored her call and walked out without turning back.
There was only Su Ziyue in the room now.
Feeling distressed, she picked up a ceramic vase and threw it out.
No, I need to calm down now.
Then, she ran over and picked her phone up. However, she felt defeated after failing to restart it several times.
At this moment, the door to the room was opened once again, and all the lights were turned on. A woman in her fifties walked in with a tray in her hands.
Without speaking a word, the woman brought the food from the tray to the table and then turned her head to look at Su Ziyue blankly before nodding at her.
The expression on her face was far too vacant; it seemed like she was deaf and mute!
Before Su Ziyue could say anything, the woman turned around and left.
Su Ziyue walked over and took a look at the food. Although they were simple, she noticed that the dishes were well-prepared. Based on this, Gong Zeyang seemed to have no plans to harm her for now…
…
At the hospital, Qin Muchen stood in the corridor with a darkened expression on his face. From time to time, he looked up at the emergency room and tried to take a cigarette from his pocket. His actions showed that he was being restless now.
“Don’t worry, Munchen. The doctor has said that this isn’t a huge issue, so nothing will happen to Grandpa…” Gu Hanyan took the initiative to console him after sensing his anxiety.
However, Qin Muchen turned his gaze to her and said coldly, “Shut up.”
The reason behind his anxiety was not only because Qin Yuchuan was in the emergency room now, but also because his calls to Su Ziyue could no longer get through.
She might’ve been angry with me earlier, but is she throwing tantrums now? Is she doing it on purpose? Either that, is it because she has learnt about the news of my appearance at the talk show with Gu Hanyan?
