She was completely exasperated by Meng Sheng's ability to handle anything that came her way.
Her reputation was ruined at Fang Zhiman's wedding, and now she is like a naked clown, allowing others to spy on her and make fun of her.
What can she do?
Should we ask her to give up?
Having persisted in this for two lifetimes without receiving any reward, how could she give up?
There was no turning back for her.
I don't want to look back.
Meng Sheng tried hard to suppress her urge to complain, "You make it sound so nice, but what evidence do you have? Your Gu family wouldn't be so despicable as to steal someone's boyfriend and then try to get something for nothing, would they?"
The word "despicable" has never been associated with Gu Jia.
But now, it's incredibly fitting.
Gu Ci frowned at her sharp words. "Of course not. I have a video of him moving your mother's car. After your mother got in the car and left, he took a taxi and followed her car from a distance. The video is about six minutes long."
Hearing her speak so convincingly, Meng Sheng frowned, her gaze, filled with suspicion and scrutiny, falling sharply on her face.
"Where's the video?"
Gu Ci met her gaze, seemingly hesitant.
Meng Sheng shrugged. "So, all you can do is talk the talk? What? Afraid I'll take it from you?"
"I have no reason to lie to you about this..."
"Do you think you're trustworthy in terms of character?" Meng Sheng interrupted her, scoffing, "Someone who can even manipulate her own parents and sister, do you think I'd believe you just because you offer empty words?"
Gu Cixin's heart skipped a beat, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She sneered, "Meng Sheng, what kind of person do you think you are? What are you trying to prove with me? I'm trying to have a proper discussion with you, so don't be ungrateful. I'm doing this for your own good..."
"Oh, so you're telling me to break up with my boyfriend for my own good?"
Meng Sheng couldn't understand this logic at all. "I really want to know, what makes you think that as long as I break up with Pei Sui, you'll have a chance? Where do you get your confidence and courage?"
Gu Ci said firmly, "You don't need to worry about that."
Meng Sheng laughed helplessly, "I thought you were a smart person, but I didn't expect you to be this stupid..."
Gu Ci looked annoyed. "Meng Sheng, you don't have to be so rude and sarcastic. I'll just ask you one question: do you agree to this deal? As long as you break up with Pei Sui, I will definitely give you this evidence."
Meng Sheng thought she was very kind and even kindly reminded her, "Have you thought about the consequences if this gets out? Have you also considered the principle that forced relationships are never happy?"
“Reason?” Gu Ci looked at her coldly. “You’re just taking advantage of my misfortune. My past and grudges with Asui are none of your business.”
Meng Sheng remained silent for a moment.
She felt that Gu Ci was not mentally sound.
That's true. If Gu Ci were mentally sound, she wouldn't do something as outrageous as trying to get someone else's boyfriend into her own life.
They're still shamelessly spouting nonsense.
She really wanted to ask, "Are there any normal people left in your Gu family?"
It was truly indescribable; if she didn't release the pent-up frustration in her heart, she felt she would die of anger.
So she decisively abandoned her personal ethics and chose to strike back hard, "You really... have repeatedly refreshed my worldview. How can a person be so shameless and self-righteous?"
Stealing someone else's boyfriend has truly reached new heights! Wow, Gu Ci, the Gu family's upbringing is truly astounding. Don't you think your statement is outrageous?
"How dare you say that? Just because you're brain-dead, does that mean I have to give in to you? Or is it because carbon monoxide invaded your brain, took over its control, and turned you into a mentally disabled person? After all, society has been calling for care for the mentally disabled."
"Gu Ci, I truly feel sorry for you. This is all that the Gu family has become."
She gave her a cold look, then got up and left.
Gu Ci's face turned deathly pale from the scolding, her body trembling uncontrollably. Her once gentle eyes were now bloodshot, swirling with anger and resentment as they fell upon Meng Sheng's retreating figure.
Why?
Why does fate have to play such a cruel joke on her?
They've already given her a chance to start over, so why can't they just go back to the time when she was diagnosed with leukemia?
What's the difference between this life and the previous one?
She tried so hard, so very hard...
In the end, she will have gained nothing but empty-handed efforts. How could she be willing to accept that?
She gritted her teeth, making a final struggle, and raised her voice, asking, "Then you really don't want the evidence?"
Meng Sheng didn't stop or turn her head, as if she hadn't heard anything, and walked straight out of the ward.
She knew Gu Ci had called her down today but she hadn't been holding back, and ended up doing something so ridiculous.
He's really sick!
As I approached the elevator, my phone, which was in my pocket, suddenly rang. It was the caregiver who answered it.
She answered the phone, "Hello, Xiao Zhao."
“Miss Meng, about ten minutes ago, a slightly plump middle-aged woman came up to see the old gentleman, saying she had something to say to him and sent me away. Five minutes ago, the old gentleman had a stroke…”
A middle-aged woman?
Meng Sheng's heart skipped a beat, and she pressed the elevator button a few more times, her heart racing. She hurriedly asked, "High blood pressure? How is my dad now? Is he alright? Is he in danger...?"
"No, no, the doctor is here already, Miss Meng, don't worry, the boss has taken his medicine and his condition has stabilized."
Meng Sheng breathed a sigh of relief. "You just said a middle-aged woman? What does she look like?"
"Slightly chubby, with a round face, not very tall, and has a rather amiable appearance..."
Before the caregiver could finish speaking, the elevator doors opened, and the person Xiao Zhao had mentioned suddenly appeared before them.
When Sister He saw her, she paused for a moment, her eyes darting away, before greeting her with a smile, "Miss Meng."
Meng Sheng quickly compared the characteristics the caregiver described over the phone with the person in front of her and immediately recognized them.
Moreover, the elevator goes down, so it's obvious that Sister He came down from upstairs.
Her face darkened, and she coldly questioned, "You went upstairs to see my dad?"
Sister He hadn't expected such a coincidence, bumping into Meng Sheng right outside the elevator. She smiled awkwardly, racking her brains for an excuse, "Ah...no...no, Miss Meng, what are you talking about? I'm going to the eighteenth floor..."
Without even guessing, Meng Sheng knew that Gu Ci must have sent her upstairs and said something to her father.
Her father's high blood pressure and the conversation he just had with Gu Ci gave us a clue.
Oh!
They really think they're treating her like a pushover!
Meng Sheng took a breath, sneered, and before Sister He could finish speaking, she clenched her fists and returned to Gu Ci's ward.
Bang!
