Chapter 168: Confrontation!
Su Mengxue knew that she could no longer drag Gu Yunting down, so she could only drive him away for now and find a chance to explain everything to him later.
After she made up her mind, she wiped the tears from her face, looked at Gu Yunting with an indifferent expression, and said sternly: "Gu Yunting, who do you think you are? You are such a narcissistic man. Do you think I can forgive you just by saying sorry casually? What do you think of me, Su Mengxue? You are really ridiculous."
She could see with her own eyes that the expression on Gu Yunting's face was becoming increasingly gloomy. She forced herself to speak calmly, "Gu Yunting, Lin Wenbin told you to come to Shanghai to find me. Did he tell you that I already have someone else by my side?"
At this moment, the expression on Gu Yunting's face was extremely bad. He frowned and said with a painful look: "Mengxue, you, you..."
"What do you mean by 'you'? You know the person who's been with me. He's Lu Yuanzhou. He's been with me all these years, leaving behind his work and family to travel all the way from Jiangbei to the completely unfamiliar city of Shanghai."
"When I was in the most difficult time, when I needed someone the most, he was the one who always stayed with me. Not only that, my children also like him very much. Now he is helping to take care of the children when I go out. Gu Yunting, if you were in my shoes, who would you choose?"
"Mengxue, I'm sorry for you. I hope you can give me a chance to make amends. I will definitely treat you and the child well in the future."
Gu Yunting knew that he had missed too much in the past few years and owed her and the child too much. He had tears in his eyes and a face full of guilt and self-blame.
Su Mengxue felt very uncomfortable seeing him like this, but she knew that if she was soft-hearted, Gu Yunting would be in danger, and she must not repeat the same mistake again.
She stopped looking at him, turned her head away, and said with disdain: "Gu Yunting, not only do I not welcome you, my child doesn't welcome you either. In his heart, Lu Yuanzhou is his father. If you really want the best for me and the child, don't come and disturb the happy life of our family of three."
"Mengxue, you clearly shed tears for me just now. I can see that you care about me. You are just angry now, so you said such words. I understand."
Although Gu Yunting and Su Mengxue had been separated for five years, he still believed that he understood Su Mengxue.
Su Mengxue pursed her lips and replied arrogantly, "Gu Yunting, you are really narcissistic. No wonder you were so confident that you came to Shanghai to find me. I was crying just now because I was defending myself and crying because I misjudged you. You didn't contact me for five years because of a few words from others. This can only mean that in your heart, I am not as important as others. Then why did I choose you?"
Hearing this, Gu Yunting realized that he had been a complete jerk for the past five years. He held back his tears and looked at Su Mengxue, begging humbly, "Mengxue, I really know I was wrong. Can you give me another chance? From now on, I won't listen to anyone else except you."
As he was about to step forward, Su Mengxue stopped him coldly, "Gu Yunting, I feel sick just by looking at you. Don't come near me."
When Gu Yunting heard this and saw that Su Mengxue's eyes were full of disgust and indifference, he stood there in a daze, and his heart was suddenly broken.
Then he lowered his head in disbelief, hiding the redness in his eyes.
Seeing this, Su Mengxue felt very uncomfortable. She made up her mind not to stay any longer and followed Lu Xin quickly towards the ticket gate.
When Gu Yunting heard that the train was about to depart, his heart tightened. He suddenly remembered what Su Mengxue had said while crying. She asked why he didn't reply to her letter. He was so excited that he missed these words.
He had never received a letter from Su Mengxue in his five years on the island. If he had really received one, how could he not reply? There must be a misunderstanding.
Without thinking too much, he ran after Su Mengxue.
Just when he rushed to the ticket gate panting, he saw that Su Mengxue and Lu Xin had not entered yet. With a look of relief on his face, he rushed to Su Mengxue and grabbed her hand. He was about to explain when he saw the dagger that Lu Xin had placed behind Su Mengxue.
Gu Yunting, who was unaware of the situation, couldn't help but exclaimed and growled at Lu Xin, "Lu Xin, what are you doing?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the people around them quickly looked in their direction.
Since Gu Yunting was very close to Lu Xin, he quickly tried to grab the dagger as he spoke, but Lu Xin was prepared. Seeing the people around them constantly looking towards where the three of them were, and knowing that the truth was about to be revealed, she immediately moved the dagger up an inch and pressed it hard against the center of Su Mengxue's heart on her back.
He looked at Gu Yunting and warned him fiercely, "Gu Yunting, I'm also a dead man. If you dare to move or scream again, I will make Su Mengxue be buried with me and make you regret it for the rest of your life."
Gu Yunting naturally didn't dare to move rashly. He looked puzzled and said in a trembling voice: "Lu Xin, she is your sister, how could you do this?"
Lu Xin found this ridiculous. She sneered and mocked Gu Yunting, "Gu Yunting, it seems you really don't care about me, your sister, at all. No wonder she couldn't stand the loneliness and followed another man. If it were me, I wouldn't choose you either."
Even at this time, Lu Xin did not forget to put the blame on Su Mengxue and to sow discord between her and Gu Yunting.
Gu Yunting was now only worried about Su Mengxue's safety and could not hear anything else. He looked at Lu Xin and warned, "Lu Xin, do you know that what you are doing now is illegal? Whatever conflicts you have with Mengxue, they are trivial matters that can be resolved. Why are you violating the national law? This will ruin the rest of your life."
Lu Xin sneered again and said, "Gu Yunting, I'm afraid you haven't heard a lot yet. I set fire to our villa, and the Lu couple are now in the intensive care unit. Do you think I will have the rest of my life?"
"Besides, if you hadn't suddenly appeared, I could have taken the train and left Shanghai smoothly. Maybe I could have saved her life. But now you've ruined me and made it impossible for me to leave. So I must make you pay the price."
She paused deliberately after she finished speaking, then curled her lips at him triumphantly and said lightly, "The price I make you pay is Su Mengxue."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yunting realized why Lu Xin had kidnapped Su Mengxue with a dagger. He was afraid that Lu Xin would hurt Su Mengxue, so he said solemnly, "Lu Xin, where are you going? I'll buy you a ticket right now. Don't blame Mengxue, or I will not let you go."
Lu Xin narrowed his cold eyes and replied bluntly, "Then go buy me the fastest train tickets now. Remember to buy two. If you can't get the tickets back before the police come to arrest me, I will wipe Su Mengxue's neck first and let her go to explore the way for me."
