Su Qianqian’s tears started to fall, “Brother Mo, look, she’s always like this. She doesn’t even know that she’s hurt someone and keeps pretending to be innocent.”
Gu Jinmo looked at Su Qianqian’s wound and thought of the news his assistant had told him. He frowned.
Su Qianqian was the only daughter of the Su family. Wen Yan’s words of blame for Su Qianqian at the funeral had reached the ears of the Su family. He heard they were preparing to sue Wen Yan.
There was a high chance this wound would leave a scar. The Su family would definitely not let it go.
He looked at Wen Yan with a cold gaze, “Apologize.”
“What did you say?”
Apologize?
Wen Yan couldn’t believe what he heard, “She was clearly the one who bumped into it…”
“If you hadn’t avoided her, she wouldn’t have hit the fish tank.” Gu Jinmo frowned as if he couldn’t understand her unreasonable behavior.
So he saw it.
If she didn’t avoid it, would he allow Su Qianqian to bully her?
This was blatant favoritism.
Wen Yan’s heart trembled violently. She gradually turned her gaze to him. For the first time, she felt his handsome face was extremely unfamiliar and terrifying.
She looked at Gu Jinmo as if he was an executioner, “What if I don’t apologize?”
“Then you won’t be able to leave the Gu family anymore.” Gu Jinmo’s tone was cold as if he was describing a very plain matter.
These words had two meanings.
On one hand, she could forget about getting a divorce. In the future, she would wish she was dead. On the other hand, she would always be the target of the Gu family’s revenge.
Gu Jinmo, oh Gu Jinmo, I really didn’t expect you to be so ruthless.
Wen Yan felt as if her heart had been torn open. Every breath she took would send wind into her heart. It was cold and painful.
Indeed, she was no match for the Gu and Su families.
After all, she was just an orphan, wasn’t she?
Her eyes were red as she looked at Gu Jinmo with determination.
“Alright, I apologize.”
She suddenly smiled.
As she laughed, tears began to fall.
“Su Qianqian, I’m sorry.”
Grandma, I’m sorry. I’m your granddaughter, and I’ve caused you to die a violent death.
Grandma, I’m sorry. I’ll definitely get justice for you.
Every word of apology was like a steel knife piercing through his organs.
It was as if only this dull pain could wake her up.
Wen Yan, you can’t cry! I can’t cry in front of this pair of scumbags!
She bit her lip hard and confronted the tears in her eyes.
Unable to stay any longer, she turned around and staggered away. At this moment, someone walked in.
“Miss Wen.”
It was a nurse with a gentle face who was wearing overalls.
“Didn’t you say that she personally saw Qianqian infuriate your grandmother to death?” Gu Jinmo’s voice came from behind. It was as cold as a cold lake, piercing to the bone. “Then let’s confront each other face to face.”
What was the meaning of this?
Was he really willing to give his grandmother justice?
Wen Yan’s heart was beating wildly.
“Will you believe her?” She asked Gu Jinmo.
As long as he was willing to believe the nurse’s words, there would be a chance to seek justice for Grandma.
Gu Jinmo didn’t answer her. She turned to ask the nurse, “Did you say that Su Qianqian angered Grandma to death?”
The air became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Wen Yan could hear her own heartbeat banging it was as if it was about to jump out of his throat.
She looked at the equally nervous nurse and comforted her gently, “Don’t be afraid. Tell me what you told me before.”
The nurse seemed to have been encouraged. She took a deep breath and said with a red face, “No, I didn’t say that.”
With a thud, Wen Yan’s heart sank to the bottom.
“Last time, you clearly said that Su Qianqian went out and my grandmother collapsed. Why are you changing your words now?”
“Miss Wen, I didn’t say anything like that at all. How could I change my mind?”
Su Qianqian’s smugness, Gu Jinmo’s indifference, and the nurse’s words were like a bucket of cold water that poured over her.
“Did someone threaten you?” Wen Yan tried her best to maintain her composure.
The nurse shook her head with a sad face, “No one threatened me. Miss Wen, don’t force me to point out Miss Su. I really can’t do anything against my conscience. I can’t afford to offend the Su either. Please let me off, Miss Wen…”
The nurse gave her a stern bow.
Wen Yan suddenly felt cold, from the soles of her feet to her thighs, from her fingers to her shoulder blades.
She stared at the nurse until her eyes were sore. The latter only avoided her gaze and did not speak again.
The nurse did not intend to tell the truth.
No wonder Su Qianqian and Gu Jinmo dared to drag the nurse over to confront her. It turned out they had already set up a trap for her to jump into.
Wen Yan looked at Gu Jinmo with red eyes.
The nurse’s betrayal had given her one less piece of evidence to point at Su Qianqian.
“You should have given her a lot of money to change her name, right?”
Wen Yan’s words scared the nurse so much her legs went weak and she almost knelt down.
“Miss Wen, you have to speak with your conscience. I didn’t take any money. As for you, don’t force me to frame Miss Su anymore.”
“Wen Yan, are you trying to force a confession out of me?” Su Qianqian hid at the side, trembling with anger.
At this moment, Doctor Li walked in and quickly bandaged Su Qianqian and Gu Jinmo.
Wen Yan knew that there was no point in staying here.
She looked at the nurse and saw she did not look guilty. She had a rough guess in her heart.
Money could make the world go round, not to mention the Su family, which was ranked in the top five in the city.
It was human instinct to curry favor with the powerful and avoid harm.
She did not blame the nurse for choosing Su Qianqian. She only blamed herself for being helpless and helpless.
However, she would not be at the bottom forever.
The Su family would not always be at the top.
Wen Yan straightened her back and strode out.
Watching her leave, Su Qianqian felt her heart palpitate.
She suddenly thought of a saying, “It’s the scariest when a person has nothing because she has nothing to lose.”
The sunlight outside was blinding. It was clearly a sunny day in early winter, but it was even hotter than summer.
A dazzling Lamborghini sports car was parked outside the villa.
“Wen Yan!” The person in the sports car suddenly waved at her. Seeing she didn’t respond, the person got out of the car and walked towards her.
The person had eye-catching features and diamond earrings on his ears, making him very eye-catching.
“Do you still remember me?” As if he was afraid that she would forget him, he smiled and emphasized, “I’m Xie Yiye.”
Wen Yan pursed her lips and remained silent. Of course, she could tell that this person was the one from the bar.
Not wanting to have anything to do with him, Wen Yan walked to the side with a smile.
Xie Yiye seemed to know what she was thinking and followed closely behind.
“I know you don’t like Su Qianqian, and I hate her too. Why don’t we join forces?”
“Join hands?” Wen Yan stopped in her tracks.
As expected, she cared a lot about Su Qianqian.
Xie Yiye smiled, “I found out that Su Qianqian has been looking for a lawyer recently. She wants to sue you for slander and false accusation. Even if you meet her in court, with the Su family’s methods, you’ll most likely be the one going to jail.”
His words made Wen Yan’s heart sink.
The law emphasized evidence. Right now, she didn’t have any evidence to let Su Qianqian hit the nail on the head. However, Su Qianqian could borrow the Su family’s money and power, which would make her suffer.
Lawsuits and finding evidence required money and connections, but these were the two things she lacked the most now.
She looked at Xie Yiye, and under his solemn gaze, she asked in a hoarse voice, “Third Young Master Xie, how do you want to cooperate?”
