Chapter 60 Do you like Brother Yun Ting?
Seeing that she was still pretending, Sun Suqin dug her nails into her palms. She took two steps at a time, stepped forward, grabbed Su Mengxue's collar, and cursed viciously: "You have caused our Gu family to be in turmoil, and you have the nerve to pretend to be innocent here. You really deserve to be punished. It's a pity that Fang Rou didn't use a little more force, otherwise she could have strangled you to death and it would have been considered a good thing..."
Sun Suqin was still cursing, but Su Mengxue's mind was full of Gu Yunting. He stood up for her and got into trouble for it?
Seeing that she was unmoved, Sun Suqin's anger increased. A fierce light flashed in her eyes and she warned, "Su Mengxue, if you have any shame, don't set foot in our Gu family's door again, let alone provoke the Gu family again."
After she finished speaking, she pushed hard. Su Mengxue didn't expect Sun Suqin to push her. She staggered backwards and fell unsteadily. Just when she thought she was going to fall to the ground, she suddenly felt someone holding her steadily from behind.
She turned around in confusion and saw that it was Lu Yuanzhou who came back.
Lu Yuanzhou helped Su Mengxue up, looked her over, frowned, and asked with concern: "Mengxue, are you okay?"
Su Mengxue stood up straight, came out of Lu Yuanzhou's arms, and shook her head at him: "Lu Yuanzhou, I'm fine."
Lu Yuanzhou turned to look at Sun Suqin and asked coldly, "Aunt Sun, how could you treat Meng Xue like this and say such rude words!"
Seeing Lu Yuanzhou speaking up for Su Mengxue, Sun Suqin frowned and sneered, saying sarcastically, "I was wondering why she was so talkative before, but now she's suddenly become a different person. It turns out she guessed you'd come and is playing pitiful. Lu Yuanzhou, since our two families are old friends, I have to remind you that Su Mengxue is not a good woman. Don't be fooled by her appearance."
"Aunt Sun! I don't allow you to say that about Meng Xue, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!" Lu Yuanzhou's face darkened.
Seeing this, Sun Suqin sneered, her eyes full of contempt: "You're welcome? Lu Yuanzhou, are you going to attack me again? You have always been polite and well-mannered, but how come you have changed after getting involved with this woman? I really want to see how you plan to be rude to me."
"You..." Lu Yuanzhou frowned, his face flushed red, his Adam's apple rolled but he couldn't utter a word.
Su Mengxue knew that Sun Suqin wouldn't be able to say anything good if she stayed any longer. She also understood Lu Yuanzhou's character and didn't want him to stay here any longer and feel awkward. She also wanted to go back to the ward to ask Lu Yuanzhou if he knew about Gu Yunting, so she said to Lu Yuanzhou, "Lu Yuanzhou, let's go back first."
Although Lu Yuanzhou wanted to seek justice for Su Mengxue, Sun Suqin was an elder and a woman, so he couldn't do anything to her due to her status. He had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Just as the two of them were about to pass Sun Suqin, she lowered her voice and said, "Lu Yuanzhou, I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible. With Su Mengxue's background and character, your parents will not let her in."
Lu Yuanzhou stopped, clenched his fists, turned to Sun Suqin and said, "Aunt Sun, I respect you as my elder, but you also have to act like one. I will never tolerate you slandering Mengxue again. Besides, Mengxue is such a good girl, how could my parents not like her?"
Sun Suqin sneered and said in a dark tone, "Really? Your parents have lost their dignity and will they allow a slut into the house?"
Su Mengxue's eyes darkened. She knew what Sun Suqin would say next. Before she could open her mouth, Lu Yuanzhou spoke first: "Aunt Sun, you have a daughter too. Please be more polite when you speak. Don't take advantage of your status as an elder and talk nonsense here."
Lu Yuanzhou has a gentle temperament and rarely gets angry. But when he heard Sun Suqin say this about Su Mengxue, the pressure in his body suddenly dropped and his voice was filled with cold anger.
Seeing that he was angry, Sun Suqin was about to tell the truth when Gu Changhe grabbed her arm and whispered, "Suqin, even if you don't want to listen to me, do you not care about Xiangyu anymore? If you keep talking, aren't you afraid that the past will be brought up again?"
He sighed heavily and said, "Dad, the old man is still waiting for us in the ward, let's go quickly."
Sun Suqin came to her senses belatedly. She hated Su Mengxue so much that she lost her mind. She glared at Su Mengxue and followed Gu Changhe unwillingly.
After they walked away, Lu Yuanzhou frowned and fell into deep thought. Why did Gu Changhe deliberately mention Gu Xiangyu just now? In addition, since Su Mengxue's grandfather had a close relationship with the old man of the Gu family, why did Sun Suqin hate her so much?
Su Mengxue naturally saw through his thoughts. She took a deep breath and thought that it was time to make some things clear to Lu Yuanzhou. If for no other reason, just because he was truly good to her, she should let him completely give up on her.
After the two of them returned to the room, Su Mengxue sat on the bed and asked Lu Yuanzhou to close the door and sit next to her.
She said seriously, "Lu Yuanzhou, I know you are very curious about what Sun Suqin just said. Let me tell you the answer."
Seeing Su Mengxue's serious expression, Lu Yuanzhou had a vague suspicion. His eyes flickered, and he lowered his head and stammered, "Mengxue, actually, I... I'm not that curious. You don't have to..."
"Gu Xiangyu and I were betrothed by our elders since we were young, but he despised me because I was from the countryside. On my first day at the Gu family, he drugged the water I drank. He originally wanted to hire someone else, but somehow, Gu Yunting and I ended up sleeping together."
Before Lu Yuanzhou could finish his words, Su Mengxue interrupted.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yuanzhou froze instantly. He suddenly looked up at Su Mengxue, his lips trembling, and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Su Mengxue knew that it was difficult for him to accept this matter for the time being, but a short pain is worse than a long pain, so she should not hide it from him anymore.
After a moment of silence, Su Mengxue spoke: "Lu Yuanzhou, although I haven't had much contact with you, I know you are a good man. You will meet the right girl for you in the future. Don't waste your feelings on me."
Lu Yuanzhou stared at her straight, his Adam's apple rolling violently. After a long silence, he suddenly chuckled, a hint of self-mockery spilling from the corner of his lips:
"No wonder Brother Yun Ting was so angry when he saw us together last time. No wonder he went to the Public Security Bureau to redeem you. No wonder he went to settle the score with Fang Rou on your behalf. No wonder he was so nervous and angry after you got into trouble..."
He then lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm too slow."
The room fell silent again. Su Mengxue knew that he needed time to accept it. She looked at his tense profile and swallowed back everything she wanted to say.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Yuanzhou looked up again. There was a hint of expectation hidden in his red eyes. He asked cautiously, "Mengxue, can I ask you a question?"
"you say."
"What about you? Do you... do you like Brother Yun Ting?"
