Chapter 129 Suffocating Phone Call
"I'm fine now and can be discharged from the hospital." Fu Beicheng's voice was light and without any warmth.
"It's only been a few days. Mark said I have to take care of it for at least half a month. Fu Beicheng, you don't want this body anymore, right?"
Fu Beicheng was about to get out of bed when Gu Mingjue held him down. "Fu Beicheng, can you please stop joking about your body? Do you really not take your body seriously? The old man scared you unconscious last time. He's so old. Do you want to do it again?"
Fu Beicheng's cold eyes paused, and he pushed Gu Mingjue away, "Get lost."
He covered his chest with his hands, his face was depressed and dull, and a sense of death emanated from his body. He turned his face to the window and no longer looked at them.
Gu Mingjue winked at Zhang Sen, and Zhang Sen understood and went out. Unexpectedly, as soon as Xu Meng opened the door, she almost fell into the ward due to inertia. She shuddered and took a step back. She only saw the side face of the man on the hospital bed. The thread was very smooth and the man had a high nose bridge.
Zhang Sen closed the door and looked at Xu Meng warily with an unfriendly look.
Xu Meng sat down obediently on the bench. Soon, a group of people in white coats walked into the man's ward, and then Gu Mingjue walked out of the ward. "Gone?"
"Is Mr. Fu okay?"
"Yeah." Gu Mingjue Ni said to her, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. If I hadn't brought you to buy groceries today, why would I have brought you out?"
Gu Mingjue was muttering to himself, and Xu Meng followed him obediently. The two went to the supermarket to buy some vegetables. Xu Meng followed Gu Mingjue, who looked like an old man, carrying a bunch of plastic bags.
Gu Mingjue opened the car door and walked in. Xu Meng was stunned for a moment, walked around the front of the car to the other side, opened the car door with difficulty and got in, "Mr. Gu, are you in a bad mood?"
Gu Mingjue glanced at her, his tone suddenly becoming extremely serious. "Who are you? I've had people check the slums, and there's no one named Xu Meng. What's your purpose in approaching me?"
Under his increasingly cold eyes, Xu Meng still spoke out, telling him that it was his first time in Country S and that he had been robbed.
Gu Mingjue frowned, "You don't have any relatives here?"
"Why did you come to China?"
"Why did I bump into you?"
A series of questions left Xu Meng stunned. "I came here to have fun. As for why I met you, it was really a coincidence."
Gu Mingjue narrowed his eyes slightly, "I don't believe you can't even remember the number of one of your relatives."
"I ran away secretly. I don't have a mother. My father has his own family and doesn't care about me as a daughter. He even wants to marry me to a 50-year-old man." As Xu Meng spoke, tears started to fall.
It was half true and half false. Her father really didn't love her at all. In his eyes, she was just a daughter to be traded. He only cared about the family's reputation, not whether she liked it or not, or what the other person's character was like. Thinking of this, Xu Meng suddenly became even sadder.
Since she was a child, she has always envied Xinxin. She also has no mother, but her father gives all his love to Xinxin. He even makes birthday cakes for her by hand and never misses any parent-teacher meetings.
The more Xu Meng thought about it, the sadder she became. Her tears fell violently. Gu Mingjue was at a loss. He took out a handkerchief and handed it to her, "Don't cry."
"Mr. Gu, you are the best person I have ever met. I have a relative in Xinsheng. Can you send me there? I will go to him."
"What relatives?"
"My cousin." Xu Meng sobbed.
"Is the other party good to you?" Gu Mingjue asked hesitantly.
"Okay, he was on a business trip before and should be back now."
Gu Mingjue felt a little complicated, "Okay."
The car stopped at Xinsheng's door, "What's your cousin's name?"
Xu Meng told others the name of Ning Xin's assistant.
Gu Mingjue nodded, "Okay, if your cousin treats you badly, you can always come back to work."
"Then I'll leave." Gu Mingjue said.
"Well, thank you for troubling you these days. Goodbye, Mr. Gu." Xu Meng nodded.
Gu Mingjue watched Xu Meng being brought in, then turned around and sat back in the car. He felt inexplicably empty inside. He should be happy to have gotten rid of such a big trouble.
"Come on." That was the bar he opened himself. Gu Mingjue suddenly didn't want to go back and had no interest in cooking. He should have let that idiot have the last meal. Although he was a little stupid, he had a good temper.
Ning Xin was playing football with her son on the spacious lawn of the manor when the phone on the table rang. She walked over to answer it. It was Xin Sheng's assistant calling. A familiar voice came from the other end, "Xin Xin."
"Mengmeng, where have you been, you little girl? I thought you were kidnapped." Ning Xin couldn't help but complain.
"I... will tell you slowly when I get back. I'm afraid you'll worry about me, so I want to let you know I'm safe."
"When will you be back?"
"Xinxin, don't let any news leak out tomorrow. If my dad finds out, he will definitely not forgive me." Xu Meng spoke with fear.
Ning Xin felt a little sad, "I know, I'll have someone pick you up when the time comes, and you can hide here with me for a while."
"good."
After finishing the call, Ning Xin looked at her son having fun with the maids, and her mood became cheerful. At this time, Yaqing came over and said, "Miss."
"Sit down and talk." Ning Xin poured a cup of tea for Yaqing.
Yaqing handed her the table and said, "Miss, this bracelet is fine. Who gave it to you?"
Ning believed Yaqing and did not hide anything, "Cousin."
"Miss, do you doubt her?"
Ning Xin shook her head. "I'm just guessing. I won't feel safe until those masked men are found."
"Don't worry, young lady. As long as the master and the young master take action, the other party will soon have a clue."
Ning Xin nodded.
Yaqing excitedly joined the queue. The little guy Zhiyan was so handsome that he won the hearts of many aunts.
Suddenly the phone rang. Ning Xin saw that it was an unfamiliar number. She pressed the answer button and said, "Hello."
There was silence on the other end of the phone, only a shallow breath could be heard. Ning Xin thought of a possibility and narrowed her eyes.
Just as she was about to hang up, a deep voice rang out, "Congratulations on your engagement, Miss Ning."
Ning Xin froze, "Are your injuries...healed?"
"Okay." The man's voice was low and hoarse, and no emotion could be heard. Ning Xin's mind unconsciously emerged with the man's cold words.
"Don't show up in front of me again."
She was a little overwhelmed when she suddenly received his call, "Thank you for Mr. Fu's blessing."
There was silence, and it was a long silence. No one spoke.
Zhiyan was holding the ball pigeon and smiling, stumbling towards her, followed by a group of aunts who wanted to chase him, "Mom."
Ning Xin hung up the phone and hugged her son, "Mom, let's play together."
Ning Xin's heart was pounding. She thought Fu Beicheng probably didn't hear it, so what if he did? He wouldn't necessarily suspect that it was her child. Her heart slowly calmed down.
