Chapter 488 You're Here
"Do you think I trained Junyue just because I am partial to him?"
It's guilt.
Old Master Chu was unwilling to give up Chu Junyue, knowing full well that what he had done was unfair. They were two children from the same mother, and the younger one killed the older one.
"Our families are like towering buildings, and our children are the cornerstones that support them."
He lost his eldest son and then executed his second son. The family would face the crisis of no one to inherit, causing unrest among the side branches.
Old Master Chu kept this secret deep in his heart, not daring to let anyone know. He thought Chu Junyue would not know and underestimated this intelligent grandson.
When Chu Junyue told him coldly, "I'm not the father."
Mr. Chu understood everything.
Chu Junyue is not Chu's father, so he will never be merciful. Isn't he waiting for the right opportunity to sever the ties between Old Man Chu and the family bloodline?
When the evidence of the Chu family's second branch's guilt was irrefutable, and even the sharp blade was stabbing at Old Man Chu, Chu Junyue decisively gave orders and sent people to arrest Second Uncle Chu who was hiding abroad.
The punishment was to be cut into pieces with a thousand cuts, where the flesh of the criminal was cut off one by one, up to tens of thousands of cuts. Chu Junyue watched the punishment. When Old Man Chu got the news, all he saw was a pile of minced meat soaked in blood.
Chu Xiao knew that he was doomed, so he gently stroked Bai Yanzhu's face and comforted her softly, "Don't fight with them anymore. Go live in Huazhen, Lici Country. I have bought a house for you there."
The Bai family has been plagued by many troubles recently, and Bai's mother has been involved in countless unjust, false and wrongful cases.
Bai Yanzhu opened her eyes wide, staring at herself in the mirror, and heard the man say in her ear, "Wait for me for twenty years, I will find you."
"Your undue greed has harmed us. You must let go of your delusions. However, I do not regret everything I have done for you. It is just like when I was a child, everyone avoided me, but you invited me to join your games."
After saying that, Chu Xiao left quickly. The soldiers outside the door escorted him, and he met Jiang Zhiyue who came to the door.
The man sneered, "Miss Jiang, you win."
Jiang Zhiyue's lips curled slightly as she heard a heart-wrenching cry coming from the ward. The door of the ward was open, and everyone present could hear Chu Xiao's last words clearly.
Mu Liansheng's cold and dark voice came close to her, "If I were a little more vicious, I would tell him now that Bai Yanzhu invited him to play the game because the Bai family had placed a bet on Xiao Jingrun at that time, and the first requirement of the Xiao family for a rich lady is kindness."
"Will Chu Xiao be so angry that he will cry if he finds out?"
Mu Liansheng laughed and sighed, "Forget it. We are both in this world, so I might as well do something good."
"Hey, let me go in with you later. It would be awkward for Qin Si's current girlfriend to meet his ex-fiancée."
Bai's mother stood silently by the side, and looked at Jiang Zhiyue in disbelief when she heard the words. She clenched her back teeth tightly, trying her best to tense every subtle expression on her face.
The girl in front of him had eyes and eyebrows as white as morning dew, swaying slightly like gardenias.
She nodded slightly to Bai's mother. Bai's mother hung her hands at her side, clenched into fists, and when she nodded and bent over, she lowered her head, "Miss Jiang."
"Mother! What are you doing, this bitch, she is——"
Before he could finish his words, a heavy slap hit Bai Ruofei's face. Bai Ruofei staggered, covered her rapidly swollen cheek, and fell to the ground.
"The young master has ordered that anyone who dares to speak rudely to the young lady must be severely punished until she learns to be careful with her words and actions." A tall and strong bodyguard stood up.
Mu Liansheng clicked his tongue and said, "My brother-in-law is quite protective of my precious sister."
"Miss Jiang, Ruofei is still young and her mind is not mature yet. I apologize to you on her behalf." Bai's mother's face changed and she hurried forward to apologize.
The arrogant Bai family finally gave up all their pride, lowered their heads, and bent their backs deeply.
The air fell silent. Jiang Zhiyue looked at Bai's mother who was so respectful. For some reason, she thought of that day at the piano concert when she was sitting in the corner of the audience and witnessed the heartwarming scene between mother and daughter.
Bai's mother bent over, and Jiang Zhiyue didn't speak, so she kept that posture, not daring to straighten up. She secretly raised her eyes to observe the girl's expression, and saw Jiang Zhiyue's eyes fell on her.
Bai's mother's eyes suddenly flickered. Before she could say anything, Jiang Zhiyue had already entered the ward. At this time, the doctor also ran over hurriedly with a report in his hand, "Mrs. Bai, this, this is not good..."
At the same time, a figure appeared in the corridor. A short-haired girl holding a violin walked slowly from the end of the corridor.
She was accompanied by several students in Wharton uniforms, who had spontaneously organized a group from the music department to visit Bai Yanzhu in the hospital. They did not expect to see that scene in the corridor.
Zhou Xiuzhi stared at Bai's mother looking at the report, and hurriedly followed the doctor away, with a dark flash in her eyes.
In the ward, Bai Yanzhu was extremely emotional. She waved her hands vigorously and shattered the mirror in front of her.
Beside her, several nurses were comforting her, and several servants sent by the Bai family were helping. One of them was a middle-aged woman with an ugly face and her head lowered, holding her hand.
"Miss, you must not commit suicide. Everything will slowly get better. There are so many people who care about you and love you..."
"Miss, my poor lady..."
The middle-aged woman burst into tears, her voice trembling, and the servants also looked sad.
Bai Yanzhu tore her face with her hands, blood was all over her body, and several servants hurriedly grabbed her wrists. While struggling, Bai Yanzhu turned back suddenly and saw Jiang Zhiyue's face, which was more charming and gentle than ever.
Bai Yanzhu froze in an instant, with anger, ferocity, and jealousy flashing across her eyes, and then everything turned into dead silence.
"You actually came... How dare you!?"
Jiang Zhiyue wanted to find out whether she was involved in the treason case, but seeing Bai Yanzhu's almost crazy appearance, maybe she didn't know.
People always have to pay for their choices, but some prices are too high and beyond their tolerance, which makes people regret it.
"My face will never be healed, I have nothing left! Jiang Zhiyue, who would have thought that when I first met you, you were just a slum dweller, and later became a maid in the Gu family, and you would take away everything that belongs to me!"
She raised her head and looked deeply at the face at the door. The middle-aged woman comforted Bai Yanzhu and looked at the door with her gaze.
The middle-aged woman grabbed Bai Yanzhu's hand and suddenly increased her strength. Bai Yanzhu shook her hand off and shouted at the top of her lungs, "I'm not kind, I'm not kind at all!"
"Everything is fake! It's fake! I invited Chu Xiao to participate in the game to attract Brother Jing Run's attention. I kept this woman who rescued me from the fire by my side to win everyone's praise!"
"I am disgusted by this, by all of you!"
