Chapter 162 The house is on fire!
Ask in person? Su Mengxue heard the threat in Lin Wenbin's words, and when she heard him say that Gu Yunting was coming back soon, she felt uneasy, and a complex and indescribable emotion suddenly surged in her heart.
But Lin Wenbin was still there, so how could she let him see it?
She calmed herself down and replied calmly, "I've made it very clear to you, this child is not Gu Yunting's. Even if he comes to find me, it won't change anything. If you have nothing else to talk to me about, I'll go back."
She stood up as she spoke, but before she could leave, she heard Lin Wenbin say, "I blame myself for making a mistake back then. I shouldn't have stopped you from going to the island to find Yun Ting. Otherwise, your family of three would have been reunited long ago. As for the matter between Yun Ting and that girl, I..."
Lin Wenbin brought up the past again, and she couldn't help but think of the girl's photo and what Gu Yunting said on the phone, and her heart ached again.
Although she tried to remain calm on the surface, there were waves of emotion in her eyes.
She suppressed her sadness and interrupted, "I know in my heart that you have always disapproved of me and Gu Yunting being together, but what does our relationship have to do with you? What he has done with other women has nothing to do with me. You don't need to tell me, and I don't want to know."
"Also, I haven't forgotten what he said on the phone that year. Speaking of which, I want to thank you for helping me see him clearly. Also, I'm telling you one last time, this child is not Gu Yunting's. Even if you ask him to come to me, I will still say this."
Although Su Mengxue could not forget Gu Yunting, what happened back then had left a deep thorn in her heart. Whenever she thought about it, she felt extremely painful.
"You misunderstood what happened back then. Yun Ting...it wasn't..."
"Mengxue, are you guys done talking? Are you leaving?"
Before Lin Wenbin could finish his words, Lu Yuanzhou took Lu Zihao's hand and walked towards Su Mengxue.
Su Mengxue nodded to Lu Yuanzhou and turned to look at Lin Wenbin. At this moment, she thought of what Lin Wenbin said to her when she went to the army to find him five years ago.
She looked at Lin Wenbin and said slowly, "I hope this is the last time I see you. Just like that, let's go." After that, Su Mengxue took Lu Zihao's hand and walked out.
Lin Wenbin was stunned. Of course he remembered this sentence. He said it to Su Mengxue five years ago. The expression on his face instantly became unnatural.
Although he knew that he shouldn't say anything to Su Mengxue anymore, he couldn't escape responsibility for what happened back then, and he had the responsibility to explain it clearly for Gu Yunting.
Thinking of this, he no longer cared about his old face and rushed towards Su Mengxue anxiously. However, when he was about to catch up with her, he was blocked by the man who was holding the child just now.
"I don't care who you are or what you are thinking. Meng Xue has made it very clear just now. Please don't bother her again in the future." Lu Yuanzhou's words were full of indifference and warning.
Seeing his firm attitude, Lin Wenbin felt like a wall blocking his way. He knew it was too late to chase Su Mengxue, so he had to give up.
Seeing that he didn't move anymore, Lu Yuanzhou turned around and chased after Su Mengxue and Lu Zihao.
Lin Wenbin looked at the backs of the three of them as they left, feeling both annoyed and guilty.
He could see what the man was thinking about Su Mengxue. He thought the most important thing right now was to call Gu Yunting, explain the situation to him, and then report to him and ask him to come back as soon as possible.
Su Mengxue didn't say a word on the way back. She looked out the window, her mind full of what Lin Wenbin had just said. He specifically mentioned Gu Yunting and the girl in the photo. From the tone of his voice, it seemed that the two of them should have separated.
But she just thought it was ridiculous. Even if Gu Yunting broke up with that girl, she should forgive him? And continue to be with him? How could that be possible! Who did they think she was?
Lu Yuanzhou naturally noticed that Su Mengxue was absent-minded. He was about to return to Jiangbei, and such a thing happened at this critical juncture. He was very worried about the mother and daughter.
Even though he knew Su Mengxue would not go back to Jiangbei with him, he still couldn't help but ask, "Mengxue, I'm afraid that man will come to harass you again. Do you want to go back with me for a few days?"
Su Mengxue pulled herself out of her memories. She understood why Lu Yuanzhou was going back to Jiangbei. She didn't want to give Lu Yuanzhou any more misconceptions. She pursed her lips and said, "Yuanzhou, I still have work to do, and Zihao also has to go to school. I can't go."
Although Lu Yuanzhou felt disappointed, it was also what he expected. He suppressed his sadness and pulled a smile at the corner of his lips: "Okay, next time then."
This sentence has a double meaning. Lu Yuanzhou still has feelings for Su Mengxue. He is telling her tactfully that he will always wait for her.
Su Mengxue naturally heard it, but she couldn't say anything in front of Zihao.
After Lu Yuanzhou dropped them off at their doorstep, he drove away. After Su Mengxue and Zihao entered the house, they heard the landline in the room ringing non-stop.
Her heart suddenly started pounding and she had a bad feeling. She quickly walked to the phone and just as she picked up the call, she heard an anxious voice.
"This is Shanghai First Hospital. Are you a family member of Lui Che, Zhou Huizhen, and Lu Xin?"
Hospital? When Su Mengxue heard this, her heart was instantly grasped by an invisible hand, and was soon filled with fear and panic.
She clenched the phone tightly in her hand and opened her mouth, wanting to say something but no sound came out of her throat.
She bit her lip hard, trying to stay calm, and asked tremblingly, "I am...my parents...what happened to them? What happened to them?"
"There was a fire in your house this afternoon. The house was burned down. Your parents are currently receiving emergency treatment in the hospital. Your sister is in better condition. Come over quickly!" After saying that, the person on the other end of the phone hung up.
How could the house catch fire when there was nothing wrong? Su Mengxue didn't bother to think too much, she grabbed Zihao's hand and rushed out. Lu Zihao knew that something had happened to his grandparents, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions and followed her obediently.
Just when Su Mengxue ran to the door, she realized that she was in a bad mood after coming out of the restaurant, so she parked the car there. When she came back, she took Lu Yuanzhou's car.
Right now, she could only take a taxi to go to the hospital, but it was not easy to get a taxi at this time. She immediately burst into tears. Just when she was getting anxious, she saw Lu Yuanzhou walking towards her with a schoolbag in his hand.
Seeing her crying, Lu Yuanzhou ran up to her, frowned, and asked, "Mengxue, what's wrong with you?"
Su Mengxue's eyes welled up with tears when she heard this, but she knew in her heart that she couldn't cry now. She held back her tears and said to Lu Yuanzhou, "Yuanzhou, please take us to the hospital quickly. My parents are in trouble."
Seeing Su Mengxue's anxious look, Lu Yuanzhou didn't bother to ask more questions and hurriedly sent them to the hospital.
Fortunately, when they arrived at the hospital, Lui Che-hung and Zhou Huizhen were no longer in danger of death. They were transferred to the intensive care unit and needed further observation and treatment.
Just as Su Mengxue was about to go to the ward to see them, she was stopped by the doctor. The doctor said that although they were no longer in danger of death, visitors were not allowed for the time being.
The doctor then asked, "I found sleeping pills in your parents' blood. Do they usually take sleeping pills when they go to bed?"
Su Mengxue was stunned and blurted out, "Sleeping pills?"
