(I've removed the part where Zixiao is taken away by the villain; let's stick to the storyline and avoid anything complicated.)
Gu Momo put her hands in her pockets and walked straight to the emergency room.
At the entrance of the emergency room, people from both the direct and collateral branches of the Li family gathered. From afar, she could see Li Zhanting's perfectly sculpted profile, as if crafted by a master artist.
Her clear eyes turned frosty as she silently prepared to push open the door. "Get out of the way."
The Li family members couldn't help but erupt in anger, "Gu Momo, you..."
The man was about to reach out and push Gu Momo when his wrist was suddenly grabbed by Li Zhanting's strong and powerful hand.
Li Zhanting's icy eyes flashed with a terrifying light, and the surrounding air instantly froze. "Don't you want your hands anymore? Get out!"
Everyone trembled under his cold, sharp gaze and took two steps back.
When Li Zhanting's cold and menacing gaze fell upon Gu Momo, his eyes regained their unique tenderness and affection. "Go inside. I'll watch over you outside."
His deep, mellow voice was as intoxicating as sake, and the emotion in Gu Momo's eyes vanished in an instant.
There's no future for her and Li Zhanting. As soon as she gets news of Tianbao, she'll take the children and leave the capital!
Gu Momo entered the emergency room and slammed the door shut.
The Li family couldn't help but curse, "Who does she think she is? None of us are qualified to come in..."
Suddenly, the man felt a strong gaze on him and swallowed hard. He looked up and met Li Zhanting's cold, bone-chilling eyes, which were so sharp that they felt like icy swords piercing his chest.
The man felt a chill run down his spine and hurriedly apologized, trembling, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ting! I'll never say it again!"
Honestly, how could he forget?
Beneath Li Zhanting's gentle exterior lies a ruthless and cruel nature akin to that of a demon god!
Inside the emergency room, various medical instruments were working busily.
Old Master Li was covered in various medical tubes. His eyes were closed, and his wrinkled face was gaunt. Even so, the fierce aura that was faintly revealed between his brows was not diminished in the slightest.
Seeing his face, Gu Momo instinctively felt a surge of blood rushing to her chest...
A chilling coldness slowly welled up in her clear eyes. She clenched her fists tightly and suddenly ripped the medical equipment off his body!
"Ugh..." Without the aid of medical equipment to help him breathe, Old Master Li immediately convulsed, his eyes rolled back violently, and he was like a catfish on a sticky board, completely at Gu Momo's mercy.
Gu Momo thoroughly enjoyed the pained expression on Old Master Li's face. The thought that her sweet baby might be taken away by this man made her wish she could watch him die right in front of her!
Old Master Li, lying on his sickbed, seemed to be finally about to give up. Gu Momo gave a cold smile.
She grabbed Old Master Li's chin with one hand and quickly stuffed the Divine Pearl Pill into his mouth with the other.
Two minutes passed, and Old Master Li finally seemed to react, "Cough cough cough..."
He felt as if his whole body was being crushed by pain. Just as he was about to force his eyes open, he met Gu Momo's cold and terrifying gaze.
Old Master Li seemed startled and hurriedly tried to get up from the hospital bed, "You..."
Gu Momo beat him to it; she kicked Old Master Li in the chest, her toe gripping his throat tightly, her voice chillingly cold:
"Tell me! Where did your men take my daughter five years ago?!"
Old Master Li's breath caught in his throat, and he instantly became fully awake. "What? Your daughter? What are you talking about? I don't understand!"
"Is that so?" Gu Momo's lips curled into a disdainful smile as she pulled a piece of paper from her pocket:
"Are you sure you don't remember this hospital? I heard you were a major shareholder behind this hospital five years ago! So many children went missing from this hospital back then, and you're trying to play dumb with me? Hmm?"
She pressed down hard with her toes, choking Old Master Li and causing him to cough violently, his eyes filled with shock!
No, impossible!
Back then, he simply handed Rong Muhua's granddaughter over to that woman!
The missing child at the hospital was just a cover-up. How did Gu Momo know about this?
His face flushed crimson, his eyes bloodshot as he stared intently at Gu Momo, "Could it be that your mother is...?"
Gu Momo's eyes were icy cold, and her voice was sharp, "My mother's real name is Rong Muhua! The baby you took away is my daughter, and also Rong Muhua's granddaughter!"
Old Master Li's pupils suddenly contracted. "You're talking nonsense! You're the daughter of Gu Zhenting's ex-wife. Gu Zhenting's ex-wife's name isn't Rong Muhua at all!"
Gu Momo laughed coldly, "Ha, nothing is impossible in this world. My mother has always been called Rong Muhua, but she changed her name after marrying Gu Zhenting more than 20 years ago. Her real name is Rong Muhua, only I know that!"
"Cough cough cough..." Old Master Li seemed to have been greatly stimulated and coughed violently.
No wonder, no wonder there has been no news of Rong Muhua for more than 20 years.
It turns out that Rong Muhua had secretly changed her name and married Gu Zhenting!
Suddenly, a stubborn glint flashed in Old Master Li's eyes, "You are Rong Muhua's daughter, so why would I tell you where your child is!"
"Is that so?" Gu Momo's lips curled into a cold smile. "Then do you know exactly how many ways I can torture people?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly plunged a silver needle into an acupoint on Old Master Li's head!
The force was terrifying, a chilling sensation!
Old Master Li suddenly convulsed, white foam appearing at the corners of his mouth, as if he were about to kick the bucket and meet the King of Hell!
"You..." Old Master Li was about to resist.
But the excruciating pain that followed finally shattered all his stubbornness and obstinacy. "Stop! I'll talk!"
Gu Momo casually pulled out the silver needle. "Speak!"
Old Master Li immediately seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. He was breathing heavily, a mocking smile in his eyes. "Heh, all I know is that the other party is a woman surnamed Lan, and a very famous figure in the capital. I don't know anything else. After all, she was the buyer back then!"
“My men are responsible for helping her get the child, and she helps me control the Li family’s power. That’s our deal!”
Buyer? Gu Momo felt a fire burning in her chest.
The other party was willing to get involved in the Li family's internal strife in order to take her child away.
Just how much did that woman surnamed Lan really want her child?
Furthermore, what is the relationship between that woman surnamed Lan and her mother, Rong Muhua...?
Gu Momo left the emergency room with a heavy heart.
She didn't even glance at Li Zhanting before putting her hands in her pockets, her mind preoccupied with thoughts of Tianbao.
Li Zhanting glanced indifferently into the emergency room before taking long strides to catch up with Gu Momo.
Gu Momo was walking ahead when she heard Li Zhanting's teasing chuckle softly beside her, "Momo, you're so capable~"
