C86 Who's Waiting for Her
C86 Who's Waiting for Her
With the lights on in the corridor, Qin Muxuan finally mustered up the courage to push the door open and enter. The ward was quiet and did not look like there was anyone inside. Qin Muxuan reached out to press the lights in confusion. The moment she stepped into the ward, The alarm in the corridor was loud and flashing with red light. Qin Muxuan was so scared that her face turned pale. Ding Ling's clank came from the room, and Qin Muxuan took a step back. She saw four or five bodyguards rushing over. They saw her walk over and grabbed her arm without any hesitation.
"Who sent you?"
Qin Muxuan did not know what had happened. She was still in a state of shock. Not long after, a steady sound of footsteps came over. Gu Zijin was wearing a black windbreaker. His angular facial features were cold. He looked like an Asura in the cold night. No one dared to approach him.
Qin Muxuan rarely saw Gu Zijin like this. She did not know why her eyes turned sour. Gu Zijin felt that this figure was very familiar from afar. When he recognized Qin Muxuan, his thin lips curled into a straight line.
"Why are you here?"
"Old Madame Gu asked me to come..."
Gu Zijin coldly looked at the bodyguard. When he landed on the bodyguard's hand that was tightly holding onto Qin Muxuan's hand, a hint of displeasure suddenly appeared in his dark eyes.
"Let her go."
The bodyguard immediately obeyed and retreated. As soon as the bodyguard left, Qin Muxuan's legs went soft and she almost fell down. She did not know what just happened. She had only opened the door to the ward. Gu Zijin reached out to support Qin Muxuan. His dark eyes were hard to understand.
"How do you know the room number?"
"Old Madame Gu told me."
"Grandma will not tell anyone about this."
Gu Zijin's eyes darkened. He looked at Qin Muxuan with coldness in his eyes. Qin Muxuan felt that this kind of gaze was very strange. Could it be that Gu Zijin was doubting her?
"I really am..."
Qin Muxuan's words were choked. She could not say the rest of her words. Gu Zijin clearly did not believe her. Otherwise, why would his eyes be as unapproachable as a thousand-year-old glacier? If he did not believe her, no matter how much she explained, she would be powerless. Qin Muxuan looked away. Her fingers lightly clenched her palms as she looked elsewhere. Gu Zijin said gently,
"I will send you back first. You can tell me what happened tonight after you've thought it through."
"I don't know what happened at all."
"Something happened to my dad. Three hours ago, someone sneaked into the ward. He tampered with my dad's IV pipe."
Qin Muxuan felt as if her body and mind were shaken. She bit her lips and smiled bitterly.
So you think it was me? Otherwise, I don't have any reason to appear here at the right time and place."
Gu Zijin confessed without any intention of hiding anything. Qin Muxuan gently pushed Gu Zijin away. That's right. Who in the world would harm their son? So no matter what, Gu Zijin would not believe that Old Madame Gu asked her to come. Qin Muxuan suddenly felt that there was no reason to explain. The grief in her heart spread out like a huge net covering the sky. She walked towards the end of the corridor alone.
Mrs. Gu had just arrived in the elevator. When she saw Gu Zijin's motionless face, she could not help but urgently say,
"Where is the person who just came to the ward?"
"Let's go."
"What?!" Wang Yao asked. You actually let him go! Who is that person?!"
"Qin Muxuan."
The moment the three words came out, Mrs. Gu's expression also became very interesting. Gu Zijin had already lifted his leg and chased after Qin Muxuan. Qin Muxuan walked all the way to the entrance of the hospital. Thinking back to what Old Madame Gu had just said to her in the Gu family, how could a person change his view of a person so much in an instant? Old Madame Gu was clearly full of lies and loopholes. But the request was too tempting, and that was why she was so tempted to agree.
Before she walked out of the hospital, Qin Muxuan heard footsteps coming from behind. Her hands were tightly held and she fell into a wide embrace. Gu Zijin pursed his lips and said in a low voice.
"Qin Muxuan, I don't mean to doubt you. It's just that you appeared there just now."
On the way back, Qin Muxuan looked at the scenery outside and said in a low voice,
"I do not know what exactly happened, but it was really Old Madame Gu who asked me to go over."
Gu Zijin nodded but did not say anything. He stopped the car. The handsome black Bentley quietly stopped on the asphalt road. It was washed by the rain. Qin Muxuan remembered that she had heard that Master Gu, Gu Heng, was not in good health. It seemed that she had never seen Gu Heng in the Gu family for so long. This time, Gu Zijin and Mrs. Gu rushed to the hospital. Could it be that Gu Heng's illness was very serious this time? Otherwise, Gu Zijin would not have brought Little White there.
"Qin Muxuan."
Huh?"
"Come over a bit."
Qin Muxuan was startled but still obediently leaned over. A faint sadness appeared in Gu Zijin's eyes. He reached out and hugged Qin Muxuan tightly in his arms. Qin Muxuan was slightly stunned and subconsciously reached out to hug Gu Zijin. Gu Zijin's body was so cold that it made people afraid. Qin Muxuan bit her lips and whispered.
"Gu Zijin, I am not a canary in a cage. I always need your protection. Sometimes, if you tell me what happened, I might be able to help."
Gu Zijin's deep eyes contained a dark smile that looked like a painting.
When they returned to the Gu residence, it had been half an hour since the rain had stopped. Old Madame Gu had already been waiting in the living room. When she saw Gu Zijin return, she quickly went to greet him.
"Is Gu Heng alright?"
"He's alright. The doctor has been rescued, but he is still in a coma. Mom and Lil 'White are accompanying him in the hospital."
"That's good, that's good."
Old Madame Gu's hand unconsciously touched the beads on her wrist. She looked at Qin Muxuan calmly. Qin Muxuan could not help but drum in her heart. If Old Madame Gu was the one who harmed Gu Heng. There was no reason Old Madame Gu would still be so calm and collected. Which woman in the world would attack her son? Could it be that Old Madame Gu did not know about it? Then why did Old Madame Gu call her to Gu Heng's ward?
Clusters of fog lingered in her heart. Qin Muxuan's brows could not help but furrow slightly. Gu Zijin's mood was clearly somewhat gloomy. He entered the study alone and Qin Muxuan did not go up. Gu Zijin could handle these feelings by himself, so her comfort would not be of much use.
As soon as Gu Zijin left, Old Madame Gu pointed the spearhead at Qin Muxuan and coldly said.
"If you dare to tell Zijin that I asked you to go to the ward today, don't blame me for being rude to you. Also, pack your things. You have only stayed in the Gu family for a few days."
