Chapter 75: A big fight!
Seeing Gu Yunting at this moment, Su Mengxue was furious. It was because of him that she had to go to the hospital and face that nightmare surgery. But once the truth was out, given Gu Yunting's temper, he would definitely use marriage to bind the two of them together.
So she couldn't mention this to him, she could only clench the rag in her hand and dig her nails into her palm.
Gu Yunting felt very uncomfortable when he saw that Su Mengxue had no intention of paying any attention to him. He was afraid that Jiang Weilong would make things difficult for her, so he rushed here to see her right after being discharged from the hospital and didn't even have time to go home. He didn't expect that she would have this attitude.
His throat rolled, and he suppressed the emotions surging in his eyes. He walked a few steps to Su Mengxue and asked coldly, "Where are my clothes?"
Su Mengxue put down the scraps of fabric in her hand, without even looking at Gu Yunting, and walked straight to the counter to dig out the clothes he had made, put them aside, and said in a cold tone: "This is it."
Gu Yunting couldn't understand why Su Mengxue always treated him like this. She was obviously not like this in front of others. He clenched his fists tightly, and the blue veins bulged on the back of his clenched fists.
He walked a few steps to the counter, looked at Su Mengxue and asked sternly: "Su Mengxue, how did I offend you that you treat me like this?"
How dare Gu Yunting, the culprit, question her? She leaned forward with a frown, anger blazing in her eyes.
Gu Yunting stared at her tense jawline, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why are you silent again?"
Su Mengxue suppressed her emotions and looked up at him: "Gu Yunting, you're overthinking it." She held out her hand to him: "If you're satisfied with the clothes, deduct the deposit you paid last time, and you'll still need 20 yuan."
Gu Yunting reached out and took the suit, shaking it out neatly. He ran his hand over the pattern of the clothes, and a glint of joy flashed in his eyes after he saw it. He turned his head abruptly and asked, "Did you make these clothes?"
Su Mengxue raised her eyebrows and blurted out, "Yes, are you asking this because you're dissatisfied with something?"
Gu Yunting looked at her cold face, and the words of praise got stuck in his throat.
He knew that if he stayed there, the situation between the two of them would only become more unhappy. He couldn't utter a single word of the words he had practiced over and over before coming here.
He paused, then mustered up the courage to speak: "Su Mengxue, do you want to marry me?"
Su Mengxue's eyes flashed with surprise. Why would Gu Yunting bring up the past when all was well? Did he know about it? Although this possibility was unlikely, she felt inexplicably panicked.
She clutched the cloth beside her tightly and asked tentatively, "Gu Yunting, haven't we already discussed this matter? Why are you asking this suddenly?"
Gu Yunting has thought about it many times in the hospital these two days. If Su Mengxue wants to be safe and sound, there are only two possibilities: either return to the countryside or marry him.
Maybe he was selfish. He couldn't imagine how miserable he would be if she returned to the countryside, and he could also see that she didn't want to go back to the countryside, so he hoped she could marry him.
He wanted to keep her by his side openly so that he could always protect her from being bullied by the Jiang family. Once they got married, Jiang Shiyi would give up on him.
He looked at her and said frankly, "Su Mengxue, only if you marry me can I protect you from being hurt by others. Don't worry, even if you marry me, if you don't want to, we can sleep in separate rooms. I promise to behave properly."
Su Mengxue had no intention of listening to what Gu Yunting said in the second half of his sentence. Her mind was focused on the first half.
"Who wants to hurt me?" She suddenly grabbed Gu Yunting's sleeve and asked, "Do you know that I was almost hit by a car?"
Hit by a car? Gu Yunting's heart faltered. He immediately grabbed her arm and looked her over carefully. Only after confirming that she was fine did he feel relieved.
At the same time, a biting chill spread throughout his body, and a raging rage surged in his eyes. He was afraid that his appearance would scare Su Mengxue, so he suppressed his anger and asked in a deep voice, "You were almost hit by a car? What happened?"
Su Mengxue told him the whole story and continued to ask, "Gu Yunting, what did you mean by that just now? Who wants to harm me?"
Gu Yunting thought of Jiang Weilong's expression and the words he warned him that night. He turned to look at Su Mengxue, his voice filled with uncontrollable anger: "Don't worry about this, I will take care of it." After that, he left without looking back.
Su Mengxue thought he knew who had harmed her and wanted to go with him, but there was no one in the store and she couldn't leave for the time being. She wanted to grab him and ask him who it was, but Gu Yunting was nowhere to be seen. He left in such a hurry that he even forgot to take his clothes.
She could only find another opportunity to ask him clearly. Thinking about what he had just said, she felt that he was a reliable person, and her heart suddenly relaxed a lot.
…
He frowned slightly. Who could it be?
No matter what, he would go and ask Jiang Weilong. Even if it wasn't him, he would make it clear to Jiang Weilong that there was no possibility between him and Jiang Shiyi. If he was angry, he could take it all out on him and not bully Su Mengxue.
After arriving at the army, he parked the car and went straight to Jiang Weilong's office, entering without even knocking on the door.
After seeing Gu Yunting, Jiang Weilong said a few words quickly and hung up the phone. He was calling home. Shi Yi had attempted suicide by cutting her wrists again last night. Fortunately, her family was watching her closely, so nothing happened. He called to remind Aunt Wang to take good care of her.
He had originally planned to go find Gu Yunting after hanging up the phone, but he didn't expect that he, the culprit, would come to him first.
"Gu Yunting, how dare you come here!" He slammed the table and stood up, spilling most of the tea in the cup. He stood up and approached, asking coldly, "I have one last question for you: are you going to marry Shi Yi or not?"
Without waiting for Gu Yunting to speak, he added condescendingly: "Gu Yunting, I'm warning you not to be so arrogant! If Shi Yi wasn't so stubborn, do you think you could still be standing here? I hope you answer carefully, otherwise don't blame me..."
Gu Yunting's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he replied without giving in: "Otherwise what? Otherwise you will attack Su Mengxue? Jiang Weilong, you are a soldier,
Jiang Weilong's forehead veins bulged as he sternly replied, "I'm mean? Gu Yunting, when you were protecting that woman, did you ever think about the engagement we made back then? Since you're unkind, don't blame me for being unjust. If anything happens to Shi Yi, I want you and Su Mengxue to be buried with her!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yunting swung his fist towards him with force. Jiang Weilong was instantly knocked to the ground by this brute force. The back of his head hit the corner of the table hard, and blood soon seeped out of his forehead.
