"So - so? So, there is hope for you and Mu En." Yu Ling's interest was interrupted, and she finally said the main idea.
Shen Su knew that her parents couldn't have any good intentions.
She finished her coffee, put down the cup, and said calmly: "Even if Mu En becomes the emperor, it has nothing to do with me. Whoever agrees will marry him!"
She stood up and walked away with a single crutch - Zhou Shuo felt that it was too inconvenient for her to hop on one leg, so he gave her a crutch.
Yu Ling was anxious and stood up to stop her: "Why are you so stubborn, kid? How many times have I told you? Mu En knows he's wrong. He has nothing to do with that little devil Zhou Le! The person he wants to marry is you! You two are a perfect match. Mu En doesn't even mind that you're not good-looking, so why are you still being picky? If it weren't for your last name, Chen, he might not even look at you!"
Chen Su looked up at her mother, narrowed her eyes, and said, "Mom, I'm ugly and I've embarrassed you. I'm so sorry. If he likes me because of my last name, then I'll change my last name. From today on, I'm no longer surnamed Shen!"
Shen Su walked around Yu Ling and moved forward. She entrusted Gu Ming to the nurse because she was worried.
Yu Ling grabbed her crutches and snatched them away. "What nonsense are you talking about? How long are you going to be so willful? Don't think that I can't do anything to you just because you have your brothers and sisters backing you up! I'm telling you, the wedding date has been set! You have to marry me, whether you want to or not. If you still care about your father's face and your grandparents' health, then be obedient. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
After Yu Ling finished speaking, she was still not satisfied, so she took her crutch and threw it at Shen Su.
Chen Su instinctively stepped back, lost his balance and fell to the ground. His crutch hit the plaster, which shattered.
What Shen Su heard was not the sound of plaster breaking, but his own heart.
A pair of hands supported her, and a gentle voice said in her ear: "Come, get up quickly, the ground is cold."
Shen Su tilted her head and wiped the tears from her shoulder, then gritted her teeth and stood up. In front of her was an elegant woman in a beige cheongsam dress. She bent down, picked up the crutch on the ground and handed it to Shen Su.
Shen Su took it and whispered, "Thank you!"
The woman said gently, "Is it your stepmother? If you need anything, just call the police. Girls should protect themselves. No one is worth sacrificing your lifelong happiness for."
Stepmother!
Shen Su smiled bitterly and nodded, "Thank you!"
She walked towards the elevator on crutches.
The woman's voice on the phone came from behind, "Where are you? Hurry up! If you dare to delay me from seeing my son, I won't forgive you!"
Such harsh words also sounded gentle. Shen Su thought, how happy would she be if she had a mother like this?
Back in the ward, Gu Ming hadn't woken up yet. Shen Su couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Looking at the time, his parents should be here soon. Once his family came, it would be inconvenient for her to accompany him like this.
Chen Su stood beside Gu Ming's bed, sighed as she looked at his sleeping face, and murmured, "Do you know? My own mother just disliked my ugliness. She said that if it weren't for my last name, Mu En would never have liked me. Listen, what a blessing this is!"
"Come to think of it, you are quite good-looking. Why would Zhou Le betray you? Because your last name is Gu? That doesn't make sense. We are both so unlucky. The good-looking one is not allowed to marry, and the ugly one is not allowed to marry. My mother forced me to marry Mu En. Tell me, how can we solve this problem quickly? Otherwise, I will spend some money and hire someone to kill him!"
After Chen Su finished speaking, she laughed and quickly added: "I was just talking. My sister said that it was you who persuaded my brother-in-law and eldest brother not to beat Mu En because he didn't deserve it. I hired someone to kill him, and he didn't deserve it even more. Don't worry, I am very rational. You have helped me a lot, all of which are life-saving graces. How can I repay you in the future? I owe you too much, and I am worried to death."
Shen Su said, reaching out and poking Gu Ming’s face.
The door of the ward opened and a figure rushed over, "Son! Son—"
Shen Su was startled and quickly took two steps back. He wanted to stop the person coming in, but he had to hold on to his crutches and was in a panic.
"Huh? Is that you?" Standing in front of Chen Su was the woman who had just helped her downstairs.
Shen Su was also stunned.
She turned her head and looked at Gu Ming lying on the bed. "Are you—Mrs. Gu?"
Madam Gu Li Yan looked at the girl in front of her, then looked at her son lying on the hospital bed, and said in surprise: "You are the one who notified us and helped us take care of my son, right? You are Miss Shen?"
Shen Su nodded politely and said hurriedly: "Hello, Madam Gu, I am Shen Su! I am Gu Ming's colleague."
She bowed slightly to Gu Taiwei who was standing behind her, "Hello, Mr. Gu!"
Gu Tai smiled, "Thank you, Miss Shen, for taking care of our Gu Mingliao."
Li Yan glanced at her son on the hospital bed and asked Shen Su, "Is Gu Ming seriously injured?"
Shen Su hurriedly recounted what had happened, and then went into detail about Gu Ming's injuries and the precautions for his care.
After hearing this, the Gu couple breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Yan hurriedly asked, "Are your two babies okay?"
Shen Su quickly responded: "The baby is fine. My sister is weak after giving birth. She is busy with the baby's affairs. My brother is also injured. Once we are settled, the whole family will come to thank you."
Li Yan smiled and waved her hands, saying, "What's there to thank me for? If Gu Ming doesn't help when faced with something like this, is he still a man?"
Shen Su was stunned.
Gu Tai asked Chen Su again: "Where did those bad guys come from? Did you call the police?"
Chen Su nodded and said, "I don't know where they came from, but they were all arrested." She didn't pay attention to what happened afterwards, as that was Mu Ci and the others' business. But apart from sending them to the police station, what else could they do?
Gu Tai couldn't help but get angry and said, "In broad daylight, someone actually dared to steal a child in the hospital. How audacious! Ah Yan, although my son was injured this time, his courage is commendable and deserves praise!"
Li Yan looked very proud, "Of course, I gave birth to a good son! Naturally, he will follow my lead!"
Shen Su blinked, her eyes carefully wandering between Gu's parents. Their values were too positive, weren't they? No wonder they could raise a child like Gu Ming.
Li Yan looked at Chen Su's injury and said with a distressed tone: "Miss Chen is taking care of Gu Ming with her injury like this? Oh, you've worked so hard, husband! Go call a nurse and treat Miss Chen's foot injury! You can't be careless. If a girl's foot injury is not healed well, she will suffer when wearing high heels in the future."
