The familiar "sister" made Wen Yi stop in her tracks in a panic.
She turned around and saw the man leaning against a stone pillar next to the restroom, one hand in his pocket, a half-smoked cigarette between his teeth.
Smoke curled upwards, and the man half-closed his peach blossom eyes.
Lazy yet elegant.
But those slightly narrowed eyes held an unfathomable mystery.
"When...did you get here?" Wen Yi asked, slightly nervous.
Gu Huaixu took the cigarette out of his mouth and stubbed it out on the trash can next to him. "It was probably when...you made your move."
The other person had already walked up to Wen Yi and casually wiped the dirt off Wen Yi's cheek.
"I'm a little surprised that my sister is so kind."
Wen's face stiffened; she didn't know how to answer Gu Huaixu's question.
Looking around, she decided to change the subject, "Where's Young Master Gu?"
Gu Huaixu's smile became somewhat subtle again, "Future...Sister-in-law?"
Wen Yi suddenly looked up and stared at Gu Huaixu. She had already run away because he called her that earlier, and now he was calling her that again.
“Something happened at the hospital where Wen Ge was taken. My brother is on his way there now and specifically asked me to tell my sister-in-law.”
"Don't call me that." Wen Yi couldn't stand it anymore.
"Um?"
"There is no confirmed relationship between me and Young Master Gu."
"Isn't that just a matter of time?" Gu Huaixu retorted, his gaze somewhat piercing.
Wen Yi didn't know if it was because she was unhappy or what, but she felt that Gu Huaixu was acting a bit aggressively and fiercely.
She's nothing like the well-behaved girl she used to be.
"Could it be that my sister doesn't actually like Gu Zeyu that much...?"
"I like it!" Wen Yi admitted eagerly.
Gu Huaixu pursed his lips and stared at her.
“I’ve always liked him, and after today I’m even more certain that I want to choose Young Master Gu.” Wen Yi quickly turned around. “My brother has really helped me a lot. Thank you, brother.”
"You're welcome, sister-in-law, it's my pleasure!" Gu Huaixu's eyes were extremely cold.
"When I truly become your sister-in-law in the future, I will do my best to repay you. At that time, my younger brother can tell me whatever he wants."
"What I want, my sister probably can't give me."
“If you want it, I can find a way.” Wen Yi said, and immediately added, “It’s getting late, we should go.”
Wen Yi felt very uncomfortable after her conversation with Gu Huaixu.
Furthermore, Wen Yi was in a hurry to go back because he was afraid that Xia Xiaomeng and the others would come out and make this matter drag on forever.
Wen Yi also needs to go back and think about how to deal with the girl who was injured by Qiang Ge earlier.
However, Gu Huaixu suddenly reached out and grabbed Wen Yi's wrist, "Wen Ge is in the hospital, aren't you going to go see her?"
"The hospital doesn't need me."
“Indeed, Wen Ge needed Gu Zeyu, and Gu Zeyu did indeed show up,” Gu Huaixu said calmly.
Wen Yi frowned deeply at this.
"If a man and a woman spend the night together, many things will change."
Gu Huaixu's words struck a chord with Wen Yi.
Wen Ge is a very delicate and beautiful girl, the kind of girl that would make any man want to protect her.
To this day, Wen Yi still doesn't know why Gu Zeyu chose her as his marriage partner or why he gave up on Wen Ge.
Wen Yi even thought that maybe Gu Zeyu and Wen Ge had just had a disagreement and Gu Zeyu was using Wen Yi as a shield. If Wen Ge cried, Gu Zeyu might change his mind.
When that time comes, she will be forced to marry into the Imperial Garden in place of the devil, becoming his fourth wife, and her life will be essentially ruined.
Wen Yi clenched her fists silently.
Gu Huaixu noticed Wen Yi's emotional details and put his hands in his pockets. "However, if sister-in-law doesn't want to go, I'll take her back now."
"It's nothing, it's just that Wen Ge's crying makes people feel sorry for her, and Gu Zeyu has always had a strong protective instinct..."
"Gu Huaixu!"
Wen Yi hurriedly called out to Gu Huaixu, who was walking forward, her gaze firm, "Take me to the hospital."
"Oh," Gu Huaixu replied indifferently.
Wen Yishen exhaled, clenched his fists and then released them, repeating this several times before finally taking a step towards the bar's entrance.
Gu Huaixu followed behind, his gaze growing colder and colder.
Twenty minutes later, Wen arrived at the hospital.
Wen Ge was taken to the VIP ward of the emergency room. When Wen Yi pushed open the ward door, he saw Wen's parents inside.
Wen's mother was heartbroken because Wen Ge was injured, but her expression changed the moment she saw Wen Yi.
“It’s you!” Mother Wen pointed at Wen Yi.
Wen Yi closed his eyes and cursed under his breath.
Just now, because of what Gu Huaixu said, I was worried that Gu Zeyu would get closer to the frail Wen Ge.
But they forgot that when Wen Ge was injured, her parents would definitely accompany her to the hospital.
"Get in here!"
Wen's mother rushed over and dragged Wen Yi into Wen Ge's ward. "Look at what your sister has become because of you!"
"Mom, this has nothing to do with my sister," Wen Ge said weakly, her voice choked with sobs, for Wen Yi.
"Don't speak up for her!" Wen's mother said angrily, raising her voice at Wen Ge.
Feeling wronged by the harsh words, Wen Ge immediately burst into tears.
"Wen Ge, Mom isn't trying to be mean to you, Mom's just really angry." Wen's mother softened her tone. "Other people's older sisters always help their younger sisters, but your sister almost drove you to suicide, and even tonight she caused you to be dragged away..."
Mentioning this, Wen's mother couldn't control her anger.
She turned and glared at Wen Yi, "You're a jinx. Do you know what the consequences will be if Wen Ge is taken away today?"
As Wen's mother grew angrier, she raised her hand to slap Wen Yi across the face, but Wen Yi was pulled back a step, and her slap missed.
Wen Yi turned around and glanced at Gu Huaixu.
The moment their eyes met, Wen Yi felt a surge of emotions welling up inside her for some reason.
In the past, she was unwilling to say a word more than necessary, and always resorted to sophistry.
But at this moment, she inexplicably found courage to face her mother. "The situation was that Wen Ge suddenly rushed up, which created a dilemma..."
"What are you trying to argue with me about?"
Wen's mother grabbed the scalpel beside her and turned to face Wen Yi...
"Madam Wen, don't you think your attitude towards Wen Yi is too much?"
The ward door was pushed open from the outside, and Gu Zeyu stepped in angrily to stop Wen's mother's actions.
"Young Master Gu..." The furious Mrs. Wen did not expect Gu Zeyu to suddenly barge in and say such things.
"Mrs. Wen, Wen Ge's previous suicide attempt due to emotional distress, including this incident at the bar, have nothing to do with Wen Yi. Why are you blaming her like this?"
Gu Zeyu questioned him, his face full of anger.
Wen Yi looked surprised.
In her memory, Gu Zeyu was a mature gentleman with exceptionally calm demeanor and rarely showed such emotional fluctuations.
After a few seconds of silence, Wen's mother said, "As the older sister, it's her duty to take care of her younger sister. It's wrong of her to get her sister injured!"
"Mrs. Wen, which law stipulates that an older sister is obligated to unconditionally care for her younger sister?"
