Chapter 178 Ask for clarification
Gu Mian did not respond to him and walked into the master bedroom woodenly.
......
Old Madam Li found Li Tingshen drinking alone at the MS Group.
He sat languidly on the ground, pouring wine from the bottle.
"You..." the old lady questioned, "Explain to me clearly why you want to hurt Miss Mian like this! She is carrying your own flesh and blood! How could you have the heart to do this!"
Li Tingshen laughed softly and hoarsely. The laughter gradually grew louder and echoed in the huge and luxurious lounge.
The old lady was sad and distressed. She picked up a bottle of wine and poured it over his head. "Wake up! If you have any difficulties, explain them to her clearly!"
"I have no reason to do so!" Li Tingshen drank the wine in the bottle and smashed it to the ground. "I just don't want to live like this anymore, okay?"
The old lady was so angry that she was shaking. "You...you are going too far! That's a child, a living being! What did Gu Mian do wrong that you have to torture her like this? What did the child do wrong that you have to sentence him to death!"
"Get out..." Li Ting's cold eyes were filled with chill, "Get out!"
The old lady was so angry that she felt dizzy.
Aunt Zhang hurriedly supported her and cried, "Master, how could you speak to the old lady like that? Do you know that when the old lady learned that you had aborted the eldest young lady's child, she fainted on the spot and lay in bed for two days before she could get up again?"
"So many things have happened to the Li family in the past six months. Her only comfort was that you and the eldest young lady were doing well. But now even that last comfort is gone."
"Master, you are trying to hurt the old lady's heart..."
Li Ting leaned back on the sofa and said coldly, "I'll say it again, get lost..."
The old lady shook her head in pain, "Aunt Zhang, let's go."
Li Tingshen picked up another bottle of wine from the tea table, opened it, and continued to pour it into his mouth...
......
When Gu woke up from his sleep, he saw Mr. Lu Lang sitting in the living room.
Gu Mian stepped forward and asked, "Master, why are you here?"
"I'm worried about you. Xingzhi and Wenjing and I have made an agreement. Xingzhi and I will take turns to look after you during the day, and Wenjing will sleep with you at night."
Gu Mian felt guilty and said, "I'm sorry, Master, I made you worry."
Mr. Lu Lang stood up and patted her shoulder gently. "Mianmian, there is no hurdle in this world that cannot be overcome. Even if you really can't overcome it right now, time will help you."
Gu Mian closed his eyes painfully, tears streaming down his face, "Master, give me some time."
"Okay, we'll all be with you."
......
After resting at home for half a month, Gu Mian has almost recovered.
She looked at herself in the mirror. She still looked very bad and had lost weight.
Gu Mian washed her face, sat in front of the dressing table and put on some makeup, and her complexion looked much better.
When Gu Mian changed his clothes and walked out of the master bedroom, Wen Jing immediately stood up and greeted him, "Gu Mian, are you going out?"
"Um."
"Where are you going? I'll go with you."
"good."
Gu Xingzhi assigned a car to Wen Jing, and the two drove to MS Group.
"Ma'am, I'm sorry." The security guard stopped Gu Mian with an embarrassed look on his face, "Boss Li has ordered that we don't want to see you."
Wen Jing was furious. "Li Tingshen is really going too far! He did such a cruel thing and yet he dared to hide from us! Shouldn't he give Gu Mian an explanation?"
Gu Mian said calmly, "Please help me pass the message again. I must see him today."
The security guard nodded, "Yes."
"Gu Mian, your body hasn't recovered yet. Let's go sit over there and wait."
Wen Jing helped Gu Mian sit down on a bench in the central garden.
Ten minutes later, the security guard came to report, "Madam, I'm sorry, Mr. Li doesn't want to see you, please leave."
"I won't leave." Gu Mian sat quietly, "I'll wait here until he sees me."
The security guard left, shaking his head helplessly.
"Gu Mian, he's so cold, why do you have to meet him?" Wen Jing advised, "Let's go home, Mr. Lu Lang said that you need to lie down and rest more."
"I want an answer." Gu Mian lowered his eyes and said softly, "Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. I still don't believe he would be so cruel to his own child."
"I don't believe his previous expectations for the child were false, and I don't believe his kindness to me was false."
"Gu Mian, wake up and stop being obsessed with love! The facts are right in front of you, it's no use if you don't believe them!" Wen Jing was very upset. "He personally sent you to the operating table and arranged for the doctor to perform an abortion on you. You're a good child, and you're gone just like that..."
Wen Jing sighed, "It's better to be gone. It would be even more pitiful if my biological father rejected me after I was born..."
Gu Mian didn't say anything, but just looked up at the towering building in front of him.
Li Tingshen was right there, her child couldn't be lost in vain, she had to find him and get to the bottom of it!
The two of them waited from morning until after eleven o'clock at night, but Li Tingshen still refused to see Gu Mian.
Wen Jing went to buy some food. Gu Mian had no appetite and only ate two bites of bread and drank some water the whole day.
Wen Jing became angrier and angrier as she waited. "Even if I have to force my way in today, I will drag her down to see you!"
"Master Jing." Gu Mian pulled her, "Forget it... let's go."
Wen Jing looked at her worriedly, "Gu Mian, are you okay?"
"It's okay." Gu Mian stood up, raised his head, looked towards the rooftop again, turned around and left.
Wen Jing hurried over to help her.
......
When the two returned to Yuhua Mansion, Pei Jianchuan and Xiaobao were waiting at the door.
"Sister Gu Mian!"
As soon as Xiaobao saw Gu Mian, he immediately ran up and hugged her.
"Xiaobao." Gu Mian touched his head, "Have you been waiting for a long time? Why didn't you call me?"
"Dad said he couldn't disturb you and told me to wait here obediently."
Gu Mian hurriedly opened the door and said, "Come in."
"Gu Mian, how are you?" Pei Jianchuan said, "I brought you some supplements. Take more and you will get better soon."
"Thank you."
"Gu Mian." Pei Jianchuan looked at her, "I can understand the pain of losing a child. It can't be healed by the comfort of others. You can only get through it yourself."
"I know." Gu Mian held Xiaobao in his arms. "In order to successfully save myself as soon as possible, I'm afraid I won't be able to see Xiaobao for some time."
Pei Jianchuan frowned, "Are you going to leave the imperial capital?"
"I've been in the imperial capital for too long." Gu Mian smiled, "and Li Tingshen's shadow is everywhere here. It's hard not to be sad."
"Changing the environment is indeed a good thing for you." Pei Jianchuan suggested, "Why don't we go back to Haicheng together? With Xiaobao by your side, you might feel better."
Gu Mian shook his head, "Xiaobao has finally gotten used to life in the capital, how can I let him suffer again for my sake?"
"And I'm not going back to Haicheng. I'm going abroad, the farther away from the imperial capital the better."
