"Gu Jingchen!"
Xu Huanyan's face flushed red, and her eyeballs involuntarily popped out of their sockets. "I would never like you."
Having been pampered since childhood, Xu Huanyan could hardly bear Gu Jingchen's public "humiliation".
"Alright!" Madam Xu composed herself, suppressing her anger. She steadied herself and smiled sinisterly.
"Mr. Gu, you are indeed deeply devoted to Miss Su!"
"Then I wish Mr. Gu and Ms. Su a long and happy life together!"
By the end, Madam Xu's smile had become so wide that everyone felt uncomfortable.
"Mrs. Cheng, could you please take us to the main hall for dinner?"
Madam Xu then spoke to Madam Cheng.
“Of course.” Madam Cheng smiled, completely ignoring what had just happened. “Madam Xu, this way please.”
Madam Xu left the garden with Xu Huanyan, and the other noble ladies followed one after another.
As they passed by, they deliberately glanced at Su Ning a couple more times.
A woman with crippled legs, who is also the illegitimate daughter of the Xu family, is actually with Mr. Gu.
Gu Jingchen ignored Miss Xu's affection and even offended Madam Xu.
Now, some people either think Su Ning is amazing, while others are waiting to see what happens next.
"Ningning!"
Xu Min looked apologetically at Su Ning. She should have realized that after all these years, Madam Xu cared most about Su Xincheng and Su Ning, who were far away in the capital.
Even though Su Ning was now under Xu Jiang's name after entering the Xu family, Madam Xu still harbored a deep resentment.
She held back until she could disregard her dual identities as Madam Xu and the daughter of the Jiang family, and deliberately make sarcastic remarks about Su Ning.
Thankfully Gu Jingchen came, otherwise Ningning would have really suffered.
"I'm fine." Su Ning saw the apology in Xu Min's eyes and shook her head with a smile.
Having faced death, what does this little bit of mockery matter!
It now appears that on the Xu family's private island, the person who most wants to kill him is Madam Xu.
"Master, I'm not feeling well, so I'll go back with Jingchen first."
Su Ning continued, saying that Madam Cheng had agreed to design the jewelry necklace with Xu Huanyan, and staying here would only bring her humiliation.
Madam Xu wielded great power, and those noblewomen openly fawned over her.
Going there to eat alone won't get you any favors at all.
"Okay." Xu Min nodded in agreement. Madam Xu was her sister-in-law, and because of this relationship, there were some things she couldn't say too directly to her.
"Jingchen, take good care of Ningning."
"Okay, Auntie."
Gu Jingchen agreed and pushed Su Ning away from the Cheng family.
After lunch, Su Ning asked Gu Jingchen to drive her back to Shenyuan because she had to work on her design drafts. Gu Jingchen was reluctant to leave and drove slowly, killing time on the road.
Sitting in the back seat, Su Ning was speechless. It wasn't like they couldn't see each other. They were separated for a while, and he would definitely come to Shenyuan tomorrow.
"Gu Jingchen, could you drive a little faster?"
Su Ning noticed that five minutes had passed since they left the restaurant, but Gu Jingchen had only driven one kilometer.
That speed...
"oh!"
Listening to his wife, Gu Jingchen stepped on the gas. He glanced up at the rearview mirror to check the cars behind him.
Upon closer inspection, I noticed a car following behind my vehicle.
On the road, it's perfectly normal for one car to follow another.
Gu Jingchen noticed that this car seemed to be right behind them after they came out of the restaurant, and it was quite close to his car.
Even more strangely, as he accelerated, the car's speed also increased.
That car is following them!
Just as Gu Jingchen was about to accelerate, the car behind him sped up even faster and crashed into the rear of their car in an instant.
