Chapter 136: Crisis galore!
Su Mengxue knew they wouldn't go back so easily. She turned around, staring at Wu Xianghong and Su Daqiang, and said coldly, "What on earth do you want to do?"
Wu Xianghong curled her lips and said lightly, "You are too nervous, girl. We just want to go see the old man. Why are you so nervous?"
She paused deliberately after she finished speaking, her eyes fixed on Su Mengxue, her gaze gradually becoming sharper. She asked again, "Why are you so nervous? Are you and Gu Yunting still together? Were all those things you said before just lies? Was it to prevent us from going to Gu's house and causing trouble?"
Upon hearing this, Su Mengxue's expression immediately softened. She said calmly, "Why would I lie to you? If I were lying, why would I move out of the Gu family? I'm not nervous, but I want to preserve some last bit of friendship between our family and the Gu family. Under the current circumstances, I advise you not to visit the old man of the Gu family, so as to avoid further straining the relationship between the two families."
Seeing that Su Mengxue had been tricked, Wu Xianghong pressed on, "So there's really no chance for you and Gu Yunting anymore? Did you also abort the baby in your belly?"
In order to stop Wu Xianghong and Su Daqiang from going to the old man of the Gu family, Su Mengxue made up her mind and replied, "Yes, I aborted the baby in my belly and completely cut off all ties with Gu Yunting, so why are you going to the Gu family!"
Wu Xianghong was very satisfied with Su Mengxue's answer. She gave Su Daqiang a calm look, and Su Daqiang immediately responded, "You silly girl, Gu Yunting has such good conditions. You married into the Gu family to enjoy a good life. What else can you be dissatisfied with? You really don't know how to appreciate your blessings."
In order to stop them from going to the Gu family, Su Mengxue had to say against her will: "Do I have to marry him just because he has good conditions? There are many men with good conditions in Jiangbei. Do I have to marry them all?"
"You..." Su Daqiang was about to continue scolding her when Wu Xianghong interrupted, "Alright, your father and I have been in Jiangbei for the past few days, and other men have appeared around you. Each of them looks quite good. It seems that you are well-informed and look down on Gu Yunting."
She added to herself, "That's right. If you followed Gu Yunting, you would have to go to the island to live a hard life with the army. How could you be willing to give up the good life in Jiangbei?"
Su Mengxue really wanted to refute Wu Xianghong, but she couldn't.
After a brief silence, she said, "I really don't like Gu Yunting, and I don't want to live a hard life on the island, so I aborted the baby. Now that you all know, why bother going to the Gu family to make trouble?"
Wu Xianghong raised her eyebrows: "It seems that you admit that you like other men?"
Su Mengxue blurted out, "So what? I don't like Gu Yunting anyway. As for that child, it was just an accident. I won't let him trap me, and I don't want you to have anything to do with the Gu family anymore."
Wu Xianghong's purpose of coming here was achieved. This was the idea given to them by the man last night. Unexpectedly, things went more smoothly than they imagined.
Now that she had obtained the recording, she naturally would not go to the Gu family again. What they had to do now was to take the recording to find that man and ask him for money to return to the countryside.
A smug look flashed across Wu Xianghong's eyes. She feigned anger as she looked at Su Mengxue and replied, "Okay, now that you've said that, we don't have the nerve to go to the Gu family to see the old man. We'll go back to the countryside now."
Su Mengxue didn't believe what she said. To prevent future trouble, she said sternly, "No matter what, the old man of the Gu family was good to me. I feel guilty about this matter. He's not in good health right now. If you dare to go to the hospital to look for him, I will immediately go to the army to report to Gu Yunting's superiors and ask him to come and talk to you."
Wu Xianghong curled her lips and replied unhappily, "You girl, you're really cruel to your parents. Don't worry, since we said we wouldn't go, we won't go. We'll go back to the countryside now."
Seeing their attitude, Su Mengxue guessed that they would not go, so she softened her expression and said coldly, "It's good for you to know. As long as you don't go and disturb the Gu family, everything will be fine. If you dare to go, don't blame me for being cruel."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense with her. This city is full of chaos and people's hearts are bad. Let's hurry back to the countryside." Su Daqiang glared at Su Mengxue fiercely and said to Wu Xianghong.
Of course Wu Xianghong understood what Su Daqiang meant. He was asking her to go and ask the man for money as soon as possible. She said nothing more and turned around and left with Su Daqiang.
Su Mengxue stood there and saw the two of them walking towards the bus, which was in the completely opposite direction of Gu's house and the hospital. She finally felt relieved, sighed deeply, and went back to the store.
After Wu Xianghong and Su Daqiang walked for a while, she turned around and saw that Su Mengxue had disappeared. Then she whispered to Su Daqiang, "Did you record everything that damn girl said just now?"
Su Daqiang grinned at her, patted his chest, and said proudly, "Are you still worried about me doing things? I recorded everything."
Wu Xianghong's tense face relaxed instantly. She smiled at Su Daqiang and said, "You are smart for once."
"Okay, there are too many people here, let's take this thing and go ask that man for money."
That evening, the tape recorder appeared in Lin Wenbin's office. He opened the cloth bag and saw the item. After pressing the play button and listening to the recording inside, he angrily called the guard at the door and asked in a serious tone, "Who took this?"
The sentry on duty replied truthfully, "Instructor, this was brought by a man. He specifically asked to give it to you. He also said that the contents were very important and asked me to give it to you as soon as possible."
"Did he say anything else?"
"Instructor, no."
"Where are the others?"
"Instructor, he put his things down and left!"
Lin Wenbin hung up the phone with a bang. After pacing around the room, he still couldn't calm down his anger.
Gu Yunting called him as soon as he arrived on the island. After he explained everything, he did not hang up in a hurry, but asked him again, hoping that he could take care of Su Mengxue.
Gu Yunting treated her so wholeheartedly, yet she actually said such shameless words. He quickly walked to the desk and was about to smash the recorder when he noticed the phone on the table out of the corner of his eye.
His eyes darkened and he decided to call Gu Yunting who was far away on the island. He wanted him to see Su Mengxue's true face and give up on her completely.
