After hanging up the phone, I looked at Gu Yutian and stood up: "There's an urgent matter at the company, I have to go. Thank you for your hospitality tonight."
Gu Yutian looked up, her tone a little urgent: "You're leaving already? I haven't even eaten much!"
"No need, you can eat slowly."
I got up to leave, but when I heard Gu Yutian behind me, she hurriedly called the waiter to pay the bill.
As soon as I stepped out of the restaurant, she caught up with me: "Jiang Wan, wait! My brother is coming to pick you up soon. Let him take you back to the company."
I was puzzled. "Why did your brother have to pick you up?"
"Of course I should talk to my brother again. He loves you so much, you can't just get divorced like this!" Gu Yutian said firmly.
I stared at her, and suddenly my heart skipped a beat, and I realized what was going on!
Gu Yutian's plan for tonight is to drink the problematic beverage, then Gu Yanqing will come to pick me up, and something is bound to happen between us!
The Gu family is too insidious!
They actually tried to stop me from divorcing Gu Yanqing by using such despicable means.
Suppressing my anger, I said coldly, "There's no need. Even if the Heavenly King himself came to talk to me, it wouldn't make a difference."
Before I could finish speaking, Gu Yutian suddenly frowned and pressed one hand to her chest.
I stared at her, my gaze serious and scrutinizing.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Gu Yutian ignored me, one hand still pressed against her chest, her face pale, muttering to herself, "How could this be... It was clearly her..."
"What did you say?"
Gu Yutian suddenly looked up and glared at me, her eyes filled with resentment: "Jiang Wan, you—you are not..."
I already understand what's going on, but I have to play dumb and guide her to tell the truth herself, "Am I something?"
Seeing my bewildered expression, Gu Yutian grew even angrier, gritting her teeth as she said, "So that's why you told my brother! You deliberately sent me away..."
"What's your purpose? What are you talking about? I don't understand." I asked innocently, blinking my eyes.
But Gu Yutian no longer had time to deal with me.
She felt like she was itchy all over, completely flustered. She looked around anxiously and then ran away in a panic.
Now I'm sure there's something wrong with that drink!
Although she brought it upon herself, her personal safety was at stake, and my moral bottom line prevented me from letting it go unpunished.
Without hesitation, I turned around and followed: "Gu Yutian! Where are you going?"
She ignored me, found her car, got in, and drove away quickly.
I turned around and hurried to my parking spot. Before I even got in the car, I suddenly heard someone shout, "Jiang Wan!"
