“I know a little about what’s going on between Miss Yun and Young Master Lu,” Sheng Nanyin continued. “So, I can only offer advice. As for how you want to resolve it, I have no right to interfere.”
"Dawen," Aunt Zhang rushed over, "Hurry upstairs, Miss is calling you."
Yun Suiwan regained some consciousness, but she could sense that this clarity was temporary.
Upon seeing Da Wen arrive, she immediately used her last bit of strength to instruct him, "Da Wen, do not call Lu Dongjue over."
Da Wen was slightly taken aback, not expecting Yun Suiwan to have guessed what they would do.
“Young Miss,” Da Wen said with a pained expression and heartache in his eyes, “why do you have to wrong yourself!”
Yun Suiwan closed her eyes weakly, "I don't want to owe him anything..."
After a brief respite, Yun Suiwan's pain flared up again.
As night fell, the chill in the air seemed to seep into her bones, mingling with the pain and tormenting her.
She was exhausted but unable to sleep, suffering unbearable pain with no relief...
Her suppressed cries of pain could be heard throughout the entire villa, but the more she endured it, the more distressing her voice became.
Xiao Wu got up and walked outside.
"Xiao Wu, where are you going!" Da Wen called out to her.
"I can't care about anything else, and I don't want to," Xiao Wu made up his mind. "I just want Miss to be alright."
"Stop right there!" Da Wen said. "You take good care of Miss, I'll go and fetch Young Master Lu."
Just as Da Wen stepped down the steps, a loud "boom" was heard, and a limited-edition sports car drove into the garden.
The car stopped, and the person who got out was exactly what Da Wen expected: Lu Dongjue.
It seems that Sheng Nanyin has also told Lu Dongjue about the situation.
Lu Dongjue and Da Wen exchanged glances.
Da Wen did not stop it.
Lu Dongjue didn't ask any questions and walked straight into the villa.
Lu Dongjue strode into the room and helped Yun Suiwan, who was curled up in a ball.
Her face was pale, and she had fallen into a coma due to intense pain; her lips were bitten raw and bleeding...
"Wanwan..." A wave of heart-wrenching pain washed over Lu Dongjue, but his voice was incredibly gentle, "Don't be afraid, I'm here..."
Aunt Zhang left the room with the nanny.
Xiao Wu also came out and stood side by side with Da Wen in the garden.
The heart-wrenching cries of pain gradually faded away.
The garden returned to quiet.
The people's worries gradually subsided.
At this moment, the one who felt the most irritable and frustrated was Gu Fanyan.
Her people told her that Lu Dongjue had gone to the Yun family again.
Meanwhile, news came from Huo Beichen's side that Yun Suiwan had completely seen through Zeze's scheme.
Not only that, even Huo Beichen couldn't find Zeze for a while.
Needless to say, this matter must also be related to Yun Suiwan.
It's highly unlikely that Huo Beichen and Yun Suiwan will get married.
Gu Fanyan originally wanted to help Huo Beichen, but now not only did she fail to help, she has also made things worse.
She had never felt so frustrated before.
"Yan'er, drink less." Gu's mother walked into the room with a worried look on her face and immediately opened the window.
The smell of alcohol and cigarettes in this room was overwhelming.
Gu Fanyan ignored her and picked up her cup to continue drinking.
Gu's mother sat down beside her, not daring to take her wine glass, but patiently advised, "Yan'er, is there anything else that I can help you with? Just tell me."
"As long as you're happy, Mom will help you with anything."
Gu Fanyan smiled dismissively, "Mom, just leave me alone."
"How can I abandon you? You are my only precious baby."
Although Gu's mother has another son, the only one she truly loves is this daughter.
Gu's mother hesitated slightly and said, "Yan'er, I've thought a lot these past few days. I know you don't like Lu Dongjue at all. Tell me the truth, are you still thinking about...?"
"Mom!" Gu Fanyan immediately interrupted her mother, "Why bring up things from the past!"
She drank most of the glass of wine in one gulp.
Gu's mother was terrified. "Okay, okay, don't be angry. I won't say anything more."
Gu Fanyan slammed down her wine glass, got up and walked towards the bathroom. "Mom, I'm going to take a shower and go to bed. You should go and rest too."
Mother Gu sighed deeply.
She frowned deeply as she sat down in the living room.
"Madam, the bird's nest soup is ready." Aunt Li, the nanny, brought over a bowl of bird's nest soup.
Mother Gu picked up the bird's nest soup, but had no appetite, and put it down with a sigh.
“Aunt Li,” Gu’s mother said, “do you think I made a mistake back then?”
Aunt Li has worked for the Gu family for nearly forty years, accompanying Gu's mother from her teenage years to middle age, and also watching Gu Fanyan grow up.
Gu's mother shared many of her worries with Aunt Li.
Aunt Li said, "You did that back then for the young lady's own good."
Gu's mother shook her head, "But now I think that if I hadn't done that back then, Yan'er might still be a normal girl."
But now, though her daughter appears unchanged on the surface, she can sense the inner turmoil, struggle, and madness within her...
My daughter is no longer able to love a man she wants to love normally.
Gu's mother made up her mind: "Go and contact him. I want to talk to him."
Soon, Aunt Li replied to her message: "Madam, he said he doesn't want to talk to you."
Mother Gu slammed down her teacup, her face full of anger: "What does he mean?"
Aunt Li replied, "His exact words were that he didn't want to talk about the past anymore, and that he and Gu Fanyan couldn't be together anymore."
"Smash!" Mother Gu angrily smashed the teacup on the ground.
You're being incredibly ungrateful!
That's outrageous!
Aunt Li didn't say anything, but winked at another nanny who was in charge of chores, signaling her to come and clean.
But Aunt Li sighed inwardly. For several years, her wife's attitude toward this matter had never changed.
This attitude won't work if you want to resolve the issues from back then.
...
At 6 p.m. sharp, Yun Wanqing appeared outside the banquet hall of the Rujing Hotel.
Tonight, some of the city's socialites will be hosting a small party here.
She stood at the door for a while and saw Gu Fanyan walking into the party hall surrounded by several socialites.
"Sister Fanyan!" She quickly stepped forward and greeted Gu Fanyan affectionately.
Before Gu Fanyan could react, she handed over another gift bag, saying, "Sister Fanyan, I brought you a gift."
"Oh, isn't this the second young lady of the Yun family?" Sun Qianqian, the daughter of the Sun family, said in a high-pitched voice, "Haven't you been expelled from the Yun family yet? How dare you wander around these places?"
"Miss Yun, why did you go out without dressing up?" another socialite, You Lulu, said.
"Look at her clothes, she's not wearing a skirt, just pants, and her shoes are outdated..." the socialites mocked.
Yun Wanqing smiled apologetically, "What you ladies say is right. I am now the second young lady of the Huo family. The Huo family is indeed incomparable to the Yun family."
"But don't worry, Sister Fanyan, I carefully selected this gift!"
Upon hearing the words "Huo family," Gu Fanyan's eyes flickered, and she gave Sun Qianqian a wink.
