Chapter 6: The CEO's Substitute, the Crippled Man - Framed

"ah!"

The maid saw the wheelchair suddenly malfunction and slide down the stairs, and screamed in fright.

A sharp scream came from behind her, making Gu Shanshan even more panicked.

He couldn't control himself and thought to himself, "This is bad."

He's used wheelchairs before, but this is the first time one has ever been out of control like this.

He barely had time to shout, "Help me!"

The maid came to her senses upon hearing Gu Shanshan's voice and immediately rushed out to grab the back of Gu Shanshan's wheelchair.

If someone slipped down such a high staircase, even if they didn't die, their face would be disfigured.

The new lady already has a disability in both legs, and if her beautiful face, which resembles Mr. Gong's sweetheart, is also ruined, she will definitely be kicked out.

The maid felt incredibly guilty, blaming herself for letting go of the wheelchair.

But the wheelchair was going too fast, and no matter how hard the maid ran, she couldn't catch up. She could only watch helplessly as Gu Shanshan's wheelchair rushed down the stairs, her face pale.

Neither of them noticed that the young butler was standing in the shadows.

A chilling, sinister smile played on his lips as he watched Gu Shanshan's panicked expression.

Her voice was low and malicious as she spoke, "Heh, just a fake. I'll see how you seduce Mr. Gong after you ruin that face..."

Looking at the towering staircase before her, Gu Shanshan could only plead with the system for help: "[007, help me!]"

[I'm sorry, host, I can only provide information about quick transmigration and world travel; I cannot interfere with unexpected situations that may arise during your quick transmigration mission.]

007's apologetic reply.

The last time it couldn't resist Gu Shanshan's request and helped her exchange for the antidote to save her, it wasn't actually because its hand trembled and it used its lifespan to exchange for the antidote. Rather, its superior noticed that it had interfered with the mission and automatically punished it by converting the exchanged points into lifespan, causing Gu Shanshan's lifespan to be shortened and her to die prematurely.

This time, it dared not help again under any circumstances, fearing that its superiors would find out and that it would be even more disadvantageous for Gu Shanshan.

Hearing the system's words, Gu Shanshan closed her eyes in despair, only managing to cover her head with her hands to avoid becoming mentally impaired, awaiting the onset of pain...

Clang!

A loud crash echoed through the villa as the metal wheelchair, having fallen from a height, slammed onto the ground with a tremendous thud.

Then, their bodies collided and hit the ground with a dull thud.

"It hurts so much..."

Gu Shanshan felt an excruciating pain all over his body. He could only let out a cry of pain as a large bloody hole appeared on his forehead. He felt a sticky liquid flowing down his head, wetting his eyes. Bright red blood stained his face, and he fainted from the pain.

The maid was terrified by the scene before her and burst into tears.

Seeing a large pool of blood on the ground, the new wife, with her eyes closed, had no idea whether Gu Shanshan was dead or not, and was too frightened to touch her body.

She knelt on the ground, crying as she tried to call the hospital for an ambulance.

Before the call could even connect, a sharp pain shot through his hand as his phone was snatched away.

The maid looked up and met the butler's young face, as if she had found a pillar of support.

She clutched the butler's trouser leg, crying, "Madam is bleeding so much! Butler, please call an ambulance quickly and take her to the hospital..."

The butler, with a cold face and a frown, glanced at Gu Shanshan.

Seeing that Gu Shanshan's face was covered in bright red blood, he assumed she was disfigured and was secretly delighted.

He said with concern, "Don't worry, I'll take Madam to the hospital right away. You're covered in blood, go and change your clothes."

But I think...

The maid wanted to say it was her fault, and that she would only feel at ease if she accompanied the lady to the hospital.

But before he could finish speaking, the butler glared at him fiercely.

"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up. If you delay Madam's treatment, can you take responsibility for it?"

The maid was terrified by the usually gentle butler's fierce demeanor and dared not linger any longer. She glanced worriedly at Gu Shanshan lying in a pool of blood and then retreated.

Seeing that no one else was around, the butler dropped his feigned gentleness and looked at Gu Shanshan on the ground with a cold smile.

He kicked Gu Shanshan's body and said, "You little vixen, now look at your ugly appearance, how are you going to seduce Mr. Gong?"

As he spoke, he casually dragged Gu Shanshan up and took her out.

But how could he possibly take Gu Shanshan to the hospital? He wished she would just die.

However, apart from the maid he had used, everyone else in the villa was sent away by him.

Now, no one will see how he treats Gu Shanshan.

The housekeeper led the unconscious Gu Shanshan into an old house behind the villa, a place that was usually filled with clutter and rarely visited.

Gu Shanshan has wounds on her body. If she doesn't receive timely treatment, the wounds will fester and smell bad.

By the time he wakes up and crawls out, his blood-covered face will be almost completely ruined, no matter how good the medicine is.

Would Gong Ye keep a newlywed wife who doesn't look like his sweetheart and was bought?

Obviously not.

The housekeeper opened the door to the old house and threw Gu Shanshan inside like a rag doll.

The old house hadn't been cleaned for years, and it was covered in a thick layer of dust. When Gu Shanshan threw something in, a large handful of dust rose up, landing on Gu Shanshan's wounds and making them more susceptible to infection.

Looking at Gu Shanshan lying on the ground like a dead dog, the butler snorted venomously.

"Gu Shanshan, just wait for your wound to fester and rot, and you'll become a disfigured, ugly, crippled monster."

After saying that, the butler closed the door and left.

But after walking for a short while, he turned back, this time with an earthenware pot and a walking stick in his hands.

The butler, wearing protective gear, carefully opened the earthenware pot and poured it downwards.

A few seconds later, a venomous snake with a patterned body fell out and landed on the ground, not far from Gu Shanshan.

Watching the venomous snake flick its tongue, the butler tossed his cane beside Gu Shanshan, a relaxed smile spreading across his face. This time, he left quickly without even closing the door, as if he had never been there.

That snake is extremely venomous; if it bites Gu Shanshan, she will die instantly.

He had taken care of everything. As long as he dismissed the maid and cleaned up the blood on the stairs, no one would know what he had done during that time.

He had already prepared his story. He said that Gu Shanshan had died from a snake bite in that state. He would say that after Gong Ye left, Gu Shanshan threw a tantrum and insisted on using a cane, refusing to let anyone follow her. Who knew that she would wander into the old house in the back and fall down, where she was bitten by a snake.

The old house was surrounded by dense woods, and the road was full of potholes and snakes often appeared. No one would doubt his story.

In the dimly lit room, Gu Shanshan kept her eyes tightly closed, completely unaware that danger was approaching her step by step.

The patterned venomous snake, its body twisting and turning, its scarlet forked tongue flicking, smelled the blood on him and crawled towards him...
