In her past life, her family was destroyed and she died tragiously on the open sea.
Reborn in a new life, what bad intentions could Shangguan Wu possibly have? She simply wants to take reveng...
Xiao Jingming saw their reactions and a sarcastic smile appeared on his lips. What's the use of regretting it now?
Their relationship with Shangguan Wu has deteriorated, and to salvage it, they must first wait for her to heal Zhongming's leg.
"Tell me, do you have any good ideas on how to invite her to the Xiao family?"
Quan Tianrui was still reeling from the huge blow.
Chu Mingshu came to her senses, still not believing that Shangguan Wu was the Little Divine Doctor: "Young Master Xiao, do you really believe Xia Zilu's words so easily?"
Xiao Jingming looked at her with sharp eyes: "Madam Chu, you brought this person here. If you don't believe her, why don't you bring the little miracle doctor back to me?"
If Chu Mingshu had known where the Little Divine Doctor was, he wouldn't have brought Xia Zilu to the Imperial City!
"I'm sorry, what I mean is that we should investigate further."
"Of course I will send someone to investigate."
Xiao Jingming would send people to investigate Shangguan Wu, but now, he narrowed his eyes and said, "If it really is her, what methods do you have to get her to treat Zhongming's leg?"
Chu Mingshu suggested, "The Xiao family is hosting a banquet and has invited the young masters and ladies of various families. Do you think she wouldn't come?"
Xiao Jingming shook his head: "With Gu Yilou blocking the way for the Gu family, and Gu Yunzhen rarely attending banquets, and currently in Changteng City, he won't come."
Quan Tianrui suddenly exclaimed excitedly, "Gu Yunzhen must have known her identity to marry her. He must want to heal his legs and stand up again, which is why he married her!"
Chu Mingshu immediately nodded in agreement, saying, "No wonder I always felt something was off. It turns out that Gu Yunzhen really had no feelings for that little bitch. He married her just to cover his tracks and make it easier to treat his leg."
Knock knock!
Xiao Jingming tapped his hand twice on the desk and said in a deep voice, "I don't care what Gu Yunzhen's purpose is. After the investigation results are out, I hope you have found a solution!"
"Yes, Young Master Xiao."
"Okay, cousin."
Chu Mingshu and Quan Tianrui spoke at the same time.
***
Changteng City, Gu Garden.
Shangguan Wu remained on video call with Gu Yunzhen until the car entered Gu Garden, at which point he hung up.
Before even getting out of the car, I could see Gu Yunzhen looking in my direction from the steps in the distance.
She immediately smiled.
When the car stopped in front of the villa steps, Shangguan Wu opened the car door and ran towards the man on the steps with a smile.
"Honey, I'm home!"
She stood in front of him with a charming smile, extending her hands.
A smile appeared between Gu Yunzhen's brows. He took her hand, gently pulled her onto his lap, and with one arm around her waist, he steered the wheelchair into the villa.
Shangguan Wu leaned against his chest, listening to his rhythmic heartbeat, and felt incredibly at ease.
Even if Xia Zilu reveals her identity, it's not a big deal.
She's not afraid of trouble.
She will also protect him and his family!
Gu Yunzhen keenly noticed her emotional change and assumed it was related to the medical school's charity medical activities. His gaze narrowed slightly, but his handsome face remained calm.
He led her to the dining room.
At this moment, Uncle Zhang had already arranged for the maids to serve the dishes. A table full of delicious food emitted an enticing aroma, which whetted Shangguan Wu's appetite.
"Honey, you're so good to me!"
She sat up and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.
Gu Yunzhen's thin lips curled up.
He helped her wash her hands before they sat down at the dining table.
Shangguan Wu got off him and sat down next to him.
The two ate and chatted at the same time.
"Have you reached an agreement with Mu Liangzhou?" Gu Yunzhen asked casually.
Shangguan Wu replied, "Yes, as long as he's nominally registered in the company, I don't need to provide him with any resources, nor do I need to specifically praise him in front of my second sister or provide him with any conveniences. In return, I can use his name to obtain more and better resources for the other artists in the company. I thought this sugar-coated bullet was pretty good, so I agreed."
Gu Yunzhen glanced at her with a cool look in her eyes: "You'd rather have another man help you than let me help you?"
Well!
Is she jealous?
Shangguan Wu sniffed the air, then tilted her head to look at him and said seriously, "That's different. He's already in the entertainment industry, so he obviously doesn't lack resources or connections. If you're entering this industry specifically for me, I don't think it's necessary!"
"Yeah?"
Gu Yunzhen's tone was indifferent, making it impossible to discern whether he was happy or angry.
But Shangguan Wu frowned.
He was perfectly fine at the door just now, so why is he talking strangely now?
Shangguan Wu turned to look at him and asked bluntly, "Honey, are you jealous?"
Gu Yunzhen looked slightly taken aback.
"You think I don't need to compromise or sacrifice for you, is that right?"
His deep voice was calm and even, but it carried an undercurrent of turbulent undercurrents.
Shangguan Wu's heart skipped a beat.
Her eyes darted around, and she changed the subject: "Honey, there's something I want to discuss with you. I think I've been found out."
Gu Yunzhen put down her chopsticks, turned her head to gaze at her, and repeated, "Is that so?"
"no!"
Shangguan Wu's survival instinct kicked in. She stretched out two fingers and tugged at his sleeve, explaining in a soft voice, "That's not what I meant. I'm happy that you're willing to do things you don't like for me, but I also want you to be happy. I hope you do what you like. If you're happy, I'll be even happier!"
Gu Yunzhen stared at her clear, bright eyes for a long time before finally speaking: "You just said you were discovered, what happened?"
Shangguan Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
“Didn’t we break Xiao Zhongming’s leg? The Xiao family wants to find the Little Divine Doctor to help treat his leg, and they’ve already traced it to my… former classmate. She knows I’m the Little Divine Doctor.”
Gu Yunzhen suddenly lowered her eyes.
He corrected her: "I broke his leg, not you."
Without a second thought, Shangguan Wu replied, "We are husband and wife, so what you do is what I do!"
Gu Yunzhen looked at her with deep eyes, and after a moment his gaze moved down and landed on her luscious red lips.
Shangguan Wu felt a little nervous under his gaze and subconsciously swallowed.
Gu Yunzhen's gaze grew increasingly intense, as if it could be drawn into threads.
Shangguan Wu's face gradually turned red.
Just as she couldn't help but look away, Gu Yunzhen curled his thin lips and suddenly chuckled.
"Madam is right."
He gazed intently at her, his eyes deep: "Has Madam finished eating?"
"No, I didn't finish eating."
Shangguan Wu quickly picked up his chopsticks and started eating again.
She always felt that if she answered that she had finished eating, he would immediately drag her back to the room to do unspeakable things.
Although he has been strictly forbidden from having sex, what if he can't control himself?
During this period, Shangguan Wu must eliminate all possibilities!
Seeing her guarded attitude, Gu Yunzhen was amused and annoyed. She could kiss and hug him, but wouldn't let him drink a drop of soup.
Gu Yunzhen suddenly thought of something, and the upward curve of her lips gradually deepened.
