Chapter 61 Dare to run, or I'll break your legs.
Shen Zhen drove silently, her lips pursed. The dim light from the sidelights illuminated her face, obscuring her expression.
Gu Yushu sighed inwardly. Whenever her grandfather was mentioned, Shen Zhen's mood always soured. It seemed her grandfather had cast a long shadow over her past; this knot in her heart needed to be untied as soon as possible. Otherwise, if her grandfather really came back, Shen Zhen shouldn't run away again; she might really go crazy.
As soon as she got home, Shen Zhen immediately left Yu Shu and rushed into her room to check on Tuan Tuan. Jiang Yu had brought her back today, and Zhang Ma had already put Tuan Tuan to sleep.
The little one has gotten used to life here; she's being well cared for by Zhang Ma and Yu Shu. Her little face is rosy, and she even has a smile on her lips when she's asleep.
Shen Zhen used to be very cautious, which made Tuan Tuan timid and afraid of causing trouble for Shen Zhen when interacting with others. But since coming here, Tuan Tuan has become much more confident.
Shen Zhen stared at Tuan Tuan in a daze. Back then, she left Yu Shu for Shen Wan and her. Now that Grandpa Gu is coming back, does she have to run away again? How many four-year periods does one have in a lifetime?
Only when her legs went numb did Shen Zhen manage to slowly make her way to the bedroom. The bedroom was pitch black, and she groped for the light switch.
Suddenly, Shen Zhen was slammed against the wall by a tremendous force. All her cries of surprise were silenced by an urgent and passionate kiss. A soft, warm tongue swept in, tracing the shape of Shen Zhen's lips and swallowing all her sobs and moans.
Gu Yushu's chest heaved up and down, his hands gripping Shen Zhen's waist, not allowing her to dodge even a little, as if he wanted to meld her into his body.
In the darkness, Shen Zhen's senses were amplified. She smelled a familiar scent, her body trembled slightly, and after a brief moment of surprise, she responded proactively.
Their clothes were disheveled, their breasts half-exposed. Gu Yushu's eyes were red, filled with barely perceptible unease, and his tone was full of pleading, "Zhenzhen, this time, no matter what happens, please don't leave me again, okay?"
Shen Zhen trembled slightly as she gazed at the helpless Yu Shu in the darkness. A sharp pain coursed through her body. She nodded firmly, her hand caressing Yu Shu's cheek, and said with deep affection, "No, Shu, even if I have to leave this time, I'll do it properly..."
Before she could finish speaking, Yu Shu bit her lip hard until they tasted blood in each other's mouths before she let go.
"If you dare run, I'll break your legs! Don't you dare say such things! Zhenzhen, you're the only one in my life, only you. You can't leave unless I die!"
Shen Zhen could no longer hold back, and tears streamed down her face. What did she have that made such a wonderful person like A-Shu love her so much? Without any conditions, without requiring her to do anything, he loved her unconditionally simply because she was Shen Zhen.
Gu Yushu gently wiped away Chen Zhen's tears with his fingertips, his gaze burning with sincerity and captivating. "Zhenzhen, trust me, okay?"
Shen Zhen hugged Yu Shu tightly, her fingertips trembling slightly, and said in a choked voice, "Okay, Yu Shu, we'll face whatever comes together."
Her Ah Shu, offering her a heart full of sincerity, how could she bear to say no?
...
At the hospital.
Zhao Jingjing lay motionless on the bed, her slightly yellow hair drooping over her face and her lips pale.
Zhao Jingjing stared intently at the ceiling, her eyes filled with resentment. She slammed her hands against the bed frame from time to time, her teeth chattering, and she made "hmm! hmm! hmm!" sounds from her throat, which looked extremely frightening.
She hated Shen Zhen with a passion. They were clearly the same, so why did she have to endure all this while Shen Zhen received everyone's affection? She humbled herself and tried to please Chu Chu, but Chu Chu never took her seriously.
With a creak, the door was pushed open, and a slender figure in black walked in. The clatter of high heels on the cold floor struck Zhao Jingjing's heart.
Zhao Jingjing struggled to sit up, and seeing the person who had entered, she asked with a mocking expression, "It's you?"
Yang Yao crossed her arms and stared coldly at Zhao Jingjing, who was lying on the hospital bed with disheveled hair. She rolled her eyes and snorted, "You stray dog, what right do you have to look down on me? At least I still have the Yang family and the favor of Old Master Gu. What do you have?"
Zhao Jingjing glanced at Yang Yao as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world, "Old Master Gu? Humph! If you're really that confident, why did you come here?"
Yang Yao's eyes flickered slightly, a hint of impatience in them, as she looked down at Zhao Jingjing with disdain. "Haven't you heard that the enemy of my enemy is my friend? As far as I know, Chu Chu likes Shen Zhen, and Gu Yushu likes Shen Zhen too. What do you think would happen if Shen Zhen disappeared?"
"Are you really willing to just take the money and disappear? Zhao Jingjing, are you really willing to do this?" Yang Yao's shrill voice rang out again.
Zhao Jingjing stared fiercely at Yang Yao through her messy long hair, her eyes seeming to shoot out knives. She was gripping her arm tightly, which was already covered in bruises.
Zhao Jingjing seemed oblivious to everything. She had lost everything; she could no longer dance, and her hopes of marrying into a wealthy family were dashed. All of this was because of Shen Zhen, all because of her!
Seeing Zhao Jingjing's almost insane state, Yang Yao felt a chill. This woman was not normal! Hesitating whether to leave or not, Zhao Jingjing suddenly spoke up: "Okay! Is there any way to get rid of Shen Zhen? We can start with Jiang Yu. No matter what ranking Jiang Yu gets in this competition, her relationship with Shen Zhen and Zhong Li is destined to be unfair."
Zhao Jingjing touched her leg and laughed, "Miss Yang, what do you think people would say if they knew that Shen Zhen pushed me down for her friend, causing me to be unable to dance anymore? If the parents of those students knew that their children's dance teacher was a lesbian, would they still be willing to send their children there to learn?"
Zhao Jingjing paused for a moment, then continued, "The Gu family has the ability to control public opinion, but the opinions of outsiders are not important. If Old Master Gu knew that Gu Yushu had repeatedly tried to control the situation for the sake of a woman, a woman who was despised by her parents and exposed as having a low character and being ruthless, what would he think? Would he still agree to it?"
A glint of light flashed in Yang Yao's eyes as she grasped Zhao Jingjing's hand. "So, what do you plan to do?"
Zhao Jingjing pointed to her immobile leg, a ruthless glint flashing across her face. "Wait! When the awards ceremony comes, I'll trouble Miss Yang to invite more reporters. And we still need to ask Shen Zhen's parents to meet with Grandpa Gu!"
Yang Yao covered her face and chuckled, "Miss Zhao is indeed very clever! Then please help me out, Miss Zhao. You'll definitely get your share of the benefits once it's done!"
Zhao Jingjing pinched the flesh on her leg hard, seemingly oblivious to the pain, her face contorted with a morbid madness. If she was destined to fall into the dust, then Shen Zhen should suffer the same fate! She hated it so much! She was so close to succeeding! So close to escaping this mire, all because of Shen Zhen! All because of her!
