Chapter 336 Lost the Bet
Zhang Di didn't expect Gu Beixiao to be serious; he immediately had his assistant arrest her.
She cursed loudly, "Gu Beixiao, if you really send me to jail, do you believe Gu Youran won't let you off the hook, and neither will my son and husband!"
She has a son to rely on, and her future good days depend on him.
Her son and husband are her source of confidence; whether they can send her to prison depends on whether her son is willing to do so.
Gu Beixiao didn't care what she said at all. He just had someone take her away and kindly reminded her, "You shouldn't get too emotional, lest you faint from a rush of blood to your head."
"What did you say?"
Zhang Di looked at Gu Beixiao with great surprise.
What does he mean?
Do we really want her to send it in?
"Gu Beixiao, don't forget, I'm Gu Youran's biological mother. Aren't you afraid Gu Youran will hate you for treating me like this?!"
Gu Beixiao sneered. Hatred?
"You're overthinking it. I'm just providing you with a good environment. I even arranged a double room for you in prison, with someone taking care of you—a doctor who monitors your condition at all times. I haven't harmed you, so why would You Ran hold a grudge against me?"
He believed that even if he did nothing but send Zhang Di back to prison, they wouldn't do anything to him otherwise.
But... what he did was a bit unfair to his biological mother, but... who can blame him when this culprit gave birth to such a wonderful daughter?
He no longer has a mother, and Zhang Di has received her due punishment. Now, the only difference for her is whether she dies sooner or later. For You Ran's sake, it wouldn't be a bad thing to show some humanitarian concern.
He could never repay Gu Youran's kindness in this lifetime.
Consider it a way of repaying them.
“You…” Zhang Di clearly didn’t believe him: “I don’t believe you at all. You hate me so much, how could you possibly arrange a double room for me? You’re lying to me, and you’re lying to You Ran!”
"Let me tell you, Gu Beixiao, my son won't let you get away with this!"
Even at this point, Zhang Di was still thinking about her son; she was truly beyond help.
"Alright, I'll give you a chance." Gu Beixiao gestured for his assistant to release her: "Call your precious son now. If he can show up within half an hour, I'll let you go, how about it?"
Zhang Di looked at Gu Beixiao with some suspicion, still unwilling to believe his words, but... this seemed to be her last chance.
She couldn't help but make an outrageous demand, still eyeing Gu Youran's assets: "If my son shows up, you not only have to release me, but you also have to return Gu Youran's assets to her."
Only if the company belongs to Gu Youran can they truly possess it.
Given Gu Youran's soft heart, she could definitely persuade Gu Youran to hand over the business within three to five days.
She couldn't make her demands too outrageous, otherwise, given Gu Beixiao's personality, he might not even give her the chance.
"Okay." Gu Beixiao agreed readily.
Because he knew that Gu Bin was unlikely to appear.
Zhang Di looked smug, even feeling that victory was just around the corner. Her son cared about her the most, so how could he not show up if something happened to her?
"Son, please come to the hospital quickly. If you can get there in half an hour, we can get You Ran's company."
"We won't sign a contract right away; you'll find out when you get here."
"Son, come quickly. Drive a little faster, we'll be there in half an hour. Mom doesn't want to be taken away. I finally got out, and I don't want to go back to prison."
"Okay, okay, I'll wait for you. Hurry up, we only have half an hour!"
Hearing her son nod, Zhang Di felt very gratified and hung up the phone with an arrogant expression.
"Just wait, my son will definitely come."
Gu Beixiao sat casually on the sofa. He was also curious to see if Gu Bin would come over immediately.
He also wanted to see what kind of person the son was, the one that his biological mother would abandon her daughter to raise.
**
However, 35 minutes passed, and no one appeared outside the ward.
Zhang Di's heart sank more and more into despair. How could this be?
Didn't her son promise to come over?
Why haven't we arrived yet?!
After Gu Beixiao stood up, he casually straightened his suit, but his eyes were full of sarcasm: "Mrs. Gu, stop struggling."
"take away."
Zhang Di couldn't believe she had lost like this; her son, who clearly cared about her the most.
She's already made things sound so serious, so why hasn't her son come looking for her yet?
"No, I can't leave!" Zhang Di struggled desperately; she couldn't leave now.
What if my son gets stuck in traffic?
What if her son arrives and doesn't see her?
"Mrs. Gu, you've already lost. Isn't it a bit too late to start struggling now?"
Gu Beixiao simply had her taken away without saying a word.
It's pointless to struggle now that you're thinking about it.
"Ouch, ouch, my head is so dizzy, it hurts so much!"
Zhang Di started playing the victim; she even tried to lie on the ground and throw a tantrum, but she had no other choice.
She can't go back in. She doesn't have many good days left. Why can't they just let her go?
Gu Beixiao's assistant couldn't stand it anymore; how could someone be so shameless?
"When you made the bet with our CEO Gu just now, you were so confident that your son would definitely win. Now that she's not here, it's time for you to fulfill your bet!"
He grabbed Zhang Di: "Stop pretending to be sick. We know your health condition very well. You have absolutely no problems right now. If you don't leave, I'll call the bodyguards!"
Zhang Di was still struggling, but when she heard that the bodyguards were to be brought over, she became somewhat guilty.
Once the bodyguards arrive, she'll be dragged away whether she wants to or not...
——
An hour later, Gu Beixiao sent her to prison. Just as he had said, he had prepared a double room for her, and the other party was a doctor who was responsible for taking care of her.
"Mr. Gu, I will do this job well, but... what should I do if she doesn't cooperate?"
She was a proper chief physician at the People's Hospital, yet she was placed in prison.
She wouldn't have been happy if President Gu hadn't offered so much.
Fortunately, she only needs to serve this one patient well. As Mr. Gu's people said, if it can be treated, it will be treated; if it can't be treated, then so be it.
Isn't that simple?
“If she doesn’t cooperate, then we’ll respect her wishes. After all, it’s her life. If she can live, she can live; if she can’t, she can die. She can go down and repent to my mother.”
Gu Beixiao turned and left the prison, and just outside he ran into Gu Youran and Li Huaijin.
The moment Gu Youran saw Gu Beixiao, she rushed over and hugged him tightly.
Only her brother, only her brother would think of her and solve all her problems.
"Brother, thank you..."
Gu Beixiao's expression relaxed slightly, then he raised his hand and gently patted Gu Youran's back: "There's no need for thanks between siblings. As long as you don't blame me, that's fine."
Gu Youran buried her head in Gu Beixiao's shoulder and shook her head desperately: "I have never blamed my brother. In fact, if she hadn't been sick, she should have stayed inside."
"You sent her in here because of me, because you didn't want me to be trapped by her anymore, right?"
You made the decision for me.
You've been made to play all the bad guys; you're the one who's been wronged.
Even though your mother died at my mother's hands, you still treat me like a younger sister.
Gu Beixiao pretended to be relaxed: "Some things are better left unsaid."
