"Ji Shuyu is the daughter of the Huo family!"
He Yanyu sat in the car, Shen Baiyao's words echoing in his ears for a long time.
Xiaoyu... is the daughter of the Huo family?!
He was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time until his cell phone rang.
Seeing the housekeeper's call, he panicked and answered it quickly.
"Master, please come back soon. My elder sister is in trouble."
…
When Ji Shuyu returned to the ward, Lu Qingyi was standing at the door.
As soon as she saw her shadow, Lu Qingyi hurried forward, but stopped under Ji Shuyu's cold eyes.
Lu Qingyi was wearing a hospital gown and looked weak and haggard.
She should have returned to City D for treatment, but she was reluctant and didn't dare to leave.
She had been in a daze for a while, even struggling to think clearly. But she was certain of one thing: her daughter's life had been rewritten, and she had been living away from home for over a decade. She had suffered greatly and been hurt, and the worst of it had come from her.
"Xiao Yu..." Lu Qingyi called her tentatively.
Ji Shuyu gave her a cold look, then walked into the ward.
Lu Qingyi stood at the door, not knowing whether to go in or back out, but she really wanted to get closer.
Before she knew her identity, she couldn't help wanting to get closer, let alone now that she already knew that wonderful feeling called blood relationship.
"Madam, our young mistress has been emotionally unstable recently. Please don't provoke her."
The aunt's attitude was not polite. She was angry that her family had harmed the young lady like this.
Lu Qingyi couldn't say anything else. After all, she was the one who made the mistake first. She was the one who let Xiaoyu down and hurt her and the baby.
As a mother, she is not as caring as my aunt.
"I'm sorry." She apologized softly.
Lu Qingyi stood at the door of the ward, not daring to get closer, nor willing to leave, just like Ji Shuyu who was guarding outside the intensive care unit and could only watch from afar.
In fact, she was satisfied to be able to watch from afar like this.
Xiaoyu, from now on, Mommy...Mom will protect you, she will definitely protect you.
…
When Gu Xiuyuan came back from get off work, Ji Shuyu was standing at the window, unusually silent.
I don't need to ask to know that Lu Qingyi has come again.
Lu Qingyi is hospitalized here, just one floor downstairs.
"Xiao Yu..." He stepped forward.
Hearing Gu Xiuyuan's voice, she turned around.
She had been standing for so long that her body became a little stiff.
"Why don't you take a good rest?" He hugged her tightly with concern.
He was already weak, and after all this ordeal, he lost even more weight.
"I'm thinking about something." She was exhausted and leaned back on Gu Xiuyuan's shoulder.
You can see that she is really tired, both physically and mentally.
Gu Xiuyuan held her in his arms, silently supporting her.
"If you can't figure it out, just leave it to time!"
Gu Xiuyuan kissed her gently.
The pain of being the one you long for so long only to end up hurting yourself the most...
Perhaps he could understand.
Because they were all hurt the most by their loved ones.
"Young Madam, please eat something!" Auntie came in with dinner.
Ji Shuyu didn't have much of an appetite, but she didn't want to worry Gu Xiuyuan, so she reluctantly ate a few bites.
Perhaps because his identity was brought up again, many things from his childhood came back to his memory.
Ji Shuyu often wakes up from dreams, and those horrible and creepy memories are like a secret web that tightly entangles her.
Gu Xiuyuan felt distressed, and at the same time, he felt even more hatred in his heart.
He didn't consider himself a good person, so... if he did something wrong, he would always have to pay the price.
…
Late at night, in an abandoned school.
Long-term abandonment has caused weeds to grow around it, and there are probably no living creatures except insects, ants, and birds.
On this rainy night with thunder and lightning, every inch of the air here is filled with a terrifying atmosphere.
The enclosed and clogged restroom was filled with a foul stench, and the sound of chains rubbing against each other in the pitch-black environment was creepy.
In a corner, Huo Yuxuan was tied hand and foot to a water pipe, her mouth wrapped in tape. Only her nostrils could breathe, and only her eyes could see...
She escaped from the hospital, fell downstairs and was taken away. Only then did she understand why Gu Xiuyuan's bodyguards took her to the third floor.
He was "giving her a chance" because someone had already ambushed her outside, and he saw with his own eyes that she fell into the trap.
She was unconscious before being taken away, and when she woke up she was here.
She didn't know where she was, let alone how much time had passed.
But one thing is certain, this place is desolate, because of the sound of thunder and rain and the chirping of insects, she can no longer hear any other sounds.
There was a sound of footsteps outside, and she shrank back in fear, not daring to make a sound, but then she realized... the person who could appear here must be the one who brought her here!
But who is it?
Gu Xiuyuan’s people?
The enemy of the Huo family, the person she offended, or... the person who hurt her before?
No matter who she is, her fate will not be good.
The footsteps reached the door. Besides the man's footsteps, she also heard a squeaking sound. It was... a mouse!!!
The bathroom door was pushed open, and then a black figure flashed in.
In the light of lightning, she saw clearly that the man was the one who stabbed her in front of the hotel that day.
Her mouth was blocked, and the sounds that came out of her mouth were angry and threatening.
The man grabbed her hair with one hand and forced her face up.
"It's already this late, and you still dare to be so arrogant?" The man's hands were so strong that he almost pulled all her hair out.
Huo Yuxuan was in great pain, but she had been pampered since she was a child and was used to looking down on others and stepping on "lowly" people, so even at this moment she was still arrogant.
The man was so angry that he slapped the man twice.
After being slapped and having her hair pulled repeatedly, Huo Yuxuan's cheeks were swollen and numb.
"Arrogant? Ha..." The man sneered. "Do you still think you're the daughter of the Huo family?"
The man's words finally helped Huo Yu regain some sanity.
Yes, if she goes to the Huo family, she will be hated by everyone...
"But don't worry, I won't kill you..."
The man smiled, and his smile made Huo Yuxuan feel that what she was about to face was something more terrifying than death.
"Huo Yuxuan, don't blame others, because... there is something in this world called retribution."
After he finished speaking, the man pulled her hair and dragged her to the cubicle door. Then he picked her up and kicked her hard inside. Then the door was closed.
The gap under the partition was blocked, and soon the bottom was completely blocked.
Woo, woo——
Not knowing his intentions, she struggled violently, and at that moment a bucket of water was poured down from above.
Wow——
The water tasted pungent, with a sickening stench.
