The night before her daughter's death, Bai Shuyu was still desperately calling Gu Hongrui's phone, but all she got was "The number you dialed is unreachable."
Her daughter eve...
"Bai Shuyu, where have you been again?"
As soon as the call was connected, Gu Hongrui's voice like a mad dog came out again.
She held the phone and moved the receiver far away. When the voice stopped, Bai Shuyu asked again, "Calm down?"
Gu Hongrui pursed his lips, and Bai Shuyu said in a faint voice: "Where I am is none of your business, if you have something to say, just say it."
"Are you with your mistress again?"
Gu Hongrui subconsciously sensed something was wrong: "Just when I need to settle the score with him, Bai Shuyu, you two bastards, give me the address right away!"
"Gu Hongrui."
Bai Shuyu's voice suddenly turned cold: "If you don't know how to speak, you can shut up."
"Don't think everyone is like you, fickle!"
Bai Shuyu was about to hang up when Gu Hongrui's gritted teeth rang out, "Chen Luoyi was bullied by Huo Jiaqi's men. You must give me an explanation for this!"
"impossible!"
Bai Shuyu retorted without thinking: "Jia Qi is not that kind of person!"
As she was speaking, she heard footsteps behind her. Bai Shuyu turned around and hung up the phone.
Huo Jiaqi responded calmly, "Who are you talking to?"
She kept looking at Huo Jiaqi: "It was Gu Hongrui. He said that you sent people to bully Chen Luoyi?"
"Do you believe it?"
Bai Shuyu shook her head: "You are not that kind of person."
Huo Jiaqi couldn't help but laugh. Bai Shuyu frowned: "Jiaqi, you..."
She looked anxious, and Huo Jiaqi's eyes fell on Bai Shuyu: "I won't use such despicable means, but Mr. Lei probably misunderstood my meaning."
"What's the meaning?"
Bai Shuyu met his eyes and said, "You mean, you did explain it, but that's not what you meant?"
Huo Jiaqi nodded. Bai Shuyu held the phone and said, "No wonder he's so angry."
"Are you worried?"
His eyes fell on her, and Bai Shuyu shook her head: "I'm not worried about them. Even if Chen Luoyi was really bullied...she deserved it."
"She and Mr. Lei must have some shameful relationship."
Bai Shuyu frowned: "I'm worried about you."
"Gu Hongrui is desperate. If he knew the address, I'm worried he would go crazy."
Bai Shuyu regretted that she shouldn't have dragged Huo Jiaqi into this.
Huo Jiaqi had already squatted in front of her and held her hand: "Shuyu, this is not your fault."
Bai Shuyu lowered her head and forced a pale smile: "Why isn't it my fault? Jiaqi, don't comfort me."
"I can't live here anymore. I'm going to pack up and go back."
She stood up and was about to go upstairs to pack her luggage, but Huo Jiaqi grabbed her wrist and said, "Don't you believe me?"
He looked at her with burning eyes. Bai Shuyu shook her head: "How could I not believe you? I'm just worried..."
"Okay, don't worry about things that are not your concern."
As soon as Huo Jiaqi finished speaking, the bell outside the door rang, which scared Bai Shuyu.
"I'll go take a look."
Huo Jiaqi walked out and saw Gu Hongrui standing at the door.
"You are here indeed."
Gu Hongrui grabbed Huo Jiaqi by the collar and reached out to hit him in the face, but Huo Jiaqi held his fist with one hand. Before Gu Hongrui could react, Huo Jiaqi untied the hand that was holding his collar.
With an over-the-shoulder throw, Gu Hongrui fell to the ground with a thud.
The noise at the door made Bai Shuyu hurried out. When her eyes fell on Gu Hongrui lying on the ground, she looked towards Huo Jiaqi.
Fortunately, he is okay.
"Jiaqi, how did he find his way here?"
Gu Hongrui saw Bai Shuyu walking past him towards Huo Jiaqi. Besides the embarrassment of being thrown over his shoulder, he also felt jealousy that he had never expected.
"Bai Shuyu, I am your husband. What does it mean that you care about others?"
Gu Hongrui's tone was jealous, but Bai Shuyu remained silent.
He frowned, "You said you and him weren't a couple! When did you start living together?"
"Gu Hongrui, if you don't clean your mouth, I won't mind knocking out your teeth one by one."
Gu Hongrui was stunned and looked at Huo Jiaqi in disbelief with trembling eyes.
He had a smile on his face, but Gu Hongrui felt cold for no reason.
Huo Jiaqi meant what she said.
Gu Hongrui got up from the ground and said, "You did what happened to Luo Yi, didn't you? Huo Jiaqi, is Mr. Lei your man?"
"no."
Bai Shuyu didn't wait for Huo Jiaqi to speak before answering for him: "Gu Hongrui, President Lei has nothing to do with Jiaqi. And since Chen Luoyi has suffered these things, you should have called the police and let them arrest the person who did the bad thing instead of coming here to make a scene!"
Gu Hongrui's eyes moved to her face, and Bai Shuyu said seriously: "I have made it clear enough, please leave now."
"Bai Shuyu, if you want me to leave, you can come with me!"
Gu Hongrui reached out and pinched her wrist: "Nominally, you are still my wife!"
"Not any time soon!"
Bai Shuyu broke free from his grip: "I forgot to tell you, tomorrow is the day of the trial, Gu Hongrui, remember to come tomorrow!"
Gu Hongrui paused as he was about to leave, his gaze returning to Bai Shuyu. He sneered, "Don't worry, I certainly won't be late!"
The door was pushed open and Gu Hongrui left.
Bai Shuyu breathed a sigh of relief. Huo Jiaqi looked at her with concern: "Are you coming out because you're worried about him?"
"No!"
Bai Shuyu shook her head, her eyes wide open: "Why do you think so?"
Huo Jiaqi saw her disgusted look and couldn't help but smile: "If you're not worried about him, then you're worried about me?"
"Are you afraid that I will be bullied by him?"
Bai Shuyu's blank gaze fell on him: "No, and no."
"I think Gu Hongrui is very cunning. What if you get hurt..."
"That means you're worried about me."
Huo Jiaqi's eyes softened instantly: "Shuyu, I'm happy that you're worried about me."
"However, a jerk like Gu Hongrui can't do anything to me."
Bai Shuyu nodded, but felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
After all these years of getting along, she still didn't see through Gu Hongrui's true character. Compared with him, wasn't she a fool?
"Gu Hongrui shouldn't leave so soon now."
Bai Shuyu understood: "He should be going to Chen Luoyi's place to be taken care of now."
Gu Hongrui did go upstairs to Chen Luoyi's floor, but he didn't expect that when Chen Luoyi learned about what he had experienced, she didn't say a word and showed no concern for him at all!
