It took Gu Tingchen a long time to finally find his voice. He didn't care about the strange looks from other guests and quickly grabbed Jiang Ranran.
"Listen to my explanation, this matter is not what you think!" Gu Tingchen said hurriedly.
The recent repeated events have completely broken Jiang Ranran down. At this moment, Jiang Ranran finds it difficult to think about the whole story and just looks at Gu Tingchen with broken eyes.
"Is this the surprise you prepared for me?" Jiang Ranran couldn't help but sneered.
Although Jiang Ranran was angry these past two days, she still believed in Gu Tingchen.
But the news and photos in front of him made Jiang Ranran collapse instantly. Jiang Ranran knew that these things must have been deliberately put up today by someone with ulterior motives, but Jiang Ranran also knew that if Gu Tingchen had not done such a thing, this video could not have come out of nowhere.
What's more, there are pictures and the truth in front of us.
"It's really not..." Gu Tingchen didn't know what to say.
He had originally planned to tell Jiang Ranran about the orphanage today, but there had been too many things going on recently, and before the orphanage was successfully established, something like this happened here.
Just when Gu Tingchen wanted to explain further to Jiang Ranran, he suddenly heard Mrs. Gu yell, "Dad!"
Gu Tingchen and Jiang Ranran hurriedly looked in the direction of the old man, only to find that the old man had fallen to the ground with blood at the corner of his mouth.
At this moment, the two of them didn't care about their own affairs and rushed forward.
Jiang Ranran couldn't hold back her tears and quickly shouted beside the old man, "Grandpa, how are you? Are you okay?"
But no matter what Jiang Ranran said, the old man didn't respond.
Gu Tingchen also asked his men to call 120.
The Gu family is in chaos at the moment.
The guests around could no longer be kept, fearing that it would bring trouble to their family, so they all said they wanted to leave.
Only Gu Tingchen, Jiang Ranran, and Mrs. Gu's family were left in the hospital.
The birthday party ended in disarray, but at this moment they no longer cared about public relations.
The doctor came out of the emergency room, and Jiang Ranran quickly chased after him and asked, "Doctor, how is my grandpa? Why did he suddenly faint?"
The old man has always been in good health and has never been ill. He is only in his seventies. Even if he was stimulated at today's birthday party, there is no reason for him to suddenly faint.
The doctor said with a heavy face, "The old man vomited blood and fainted because of poisoning, but he is no longer in danger of death."
"Poisoned?" The family was shocked.
The old man usually pays great attention to his diet, how could he suddenly get poisoned?
Just when they didn't react, the police rushed over and looked at them with their ID.
"Who among you is Gu Tingchen?" asked the police.
Gu Tingchen and Jiang Ranran looked at each other, then stood up and said, "What's wrong with me?"
"We found this thing in the old man's home. There are fingerprints of you and your mother on it. This thing is poisoned, and you have a big motive, so I hope you can cooperate with us in the investigation." The policeman held a photo of the cup.
The family then realized that someone had poisoned the cup.
Mrs. Gu finally realized what was happening and hurriedly explained, "No, this poison definitely wasn't given by my son. This cup was given to me by Chen Nian. It must have been Chen Nian's doing!"
After the incident, Mrs. Gu also figured it out, but it was too late now. Even though she knew very well that this incident must have been done by Chen Nian, she had no evidence.
The police officer's voice was emotionless. "We will investigate this matter when we get back. We will never wrongly accuse any good person. I hope you will cooperate."
Seeing the police about to take Gu Tingchen away, Jiang Ranran frowned and wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't speak.
What was happening on the screen had not yet passed. Even though her grandfather's affairs had attracted her attention, Jiang Ranran couldn't pretend that nothing had happened.
As if sensing Jiang Ranran's worry, Gu Tingchen looked at Jiang Ranran with a smile before leaving, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."
Jiang Ranran opened her mouth, but hesitated to speak.
After this incident, it was too late for the Gu family to do any more public relations. After that, although Jiang Ranran and Mrs. Gu tried their best to turn the tide, it was of no use in the end. Public opinion now tended to be unfavorable to the Gu family.
Gujia’s stock price plummeted, many customers chose to cancel their cooperation with Gujia, and Gujia also faced a lot of compensation.
At this moment, the Gu family is already on a downward trend.
Moreover, without Gu Tingchen and the old man as the two backbones, and with someone fanning the flames behind the scenes, the Gu family was soon pushed to the forefront of public opinion.
Mrs. Gu simply cannot afford to take on such a big business as the Gu family. Jiang Ranran not only has to take care of the children every day, but also has to go to the hospital to take care of the old man and her own company. She has no choice but to take time out to manage the Gu family.
Even if Jiang Ranran reduced his rest time to the minimum, it was still not enough.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a big mess in their family.
After finally freeing up some time, Jiang Ranran came to the police station to visit Gu Tingchen. In just a few days, Gu Tingchen had lost a lot of weight.
The two people faced each other, and neither of them spoke first.
After a while, Jiang Ranran said, "How are you? Is there anything you need? I'll bring it to you."
After hearing these words, Jiang Ranran actually felt a little sad.
At this moment, Jiang Ranran urgently wanted Gu Tingchen to explain the photos of him and Chen Fan, but she also knew that this was not the best time.
Gu Tingchen's eyes showed some joy, but it quickly faded. "It's not that I lack anything. On the contrary, you've been under a lot of pressure recently. The Gu family's huge business is now all on your shoulders."
Having stayed in this place for so many years, Gu Tingchen naturally knew how much disaster this incident would bring to them, but Jiang Ranran was the only one who had to bear half the burden.
Jiang Ranran sighed, not knowing what to say.
The two of them were speechless again.
Gu Tingchen closed his eyes, as if he had made up his mind. He thought for a while before finally speaking, "Let's get a divorce."
After hearing this, Jiang Ranran's eyes were full of disbelief.
The Gu family is in danger now. Even if Gu Tingchen really had such news, Jiang Ranran never thought about divorce.
But now the matter of divorce came from Gu Tingchen's mouth.
"What did you say?" Jiang Ranran asked again in disbelief, as if she hadn't heard clearly.
"I was responsible for wasting your time and your youth in the past. I'm sorry, but now, let's get a divorce first." Gu Tingchen's tone became firm this time.
