Father Gu came to the hospital. He met Mother Wen’s attending doctor through someone he knew.
He asked the attending doctor to change the injury identification report.
But the attending doctor told him, “Miss Wen has taken a copy of the report, Mr. Gu, this…”
She was the patient’s family member, so when she came to ask for that, the attending doctor would of course give it to her.
Father Gu frowned.
“When did she take it?”
“This morning.”
This morning…
So early?
The attending doctor gazed after Father Gu when he left, shaking his head with a sigh. People nowadays…
“Ah Xiu, Gu Xi did wrong this time, but she didn’t know you were pregnant, could you forgive her?
“She’s still young and has just started her career. You are her elder, can you just watch her be ruined like this?”
Mother Wen lay in the patient room and listened to Father Gu.
Since Ming Shu told her to see what Father Gu’s attitude would be, she’d been wondering what his attitude would be like.
But today, she finally figured it out and listened to it with her own ears.
He came to ask her to forgive Gu Xi.
Yes.
From the beginning, she never intended to hold Gu Xi accountable…
Because she was Father Gu’s wife.
She didn’t want the family to tear apart because of her.
She chose to let pass, but that was different from his coming over and asking her to let it pass.
Mother Wen put her hands on her abdomen. “But I lost my baby.”
Father Gu looked at her abdomen. He couldn’t say something like they’d have a new baby to comfort her.
They were both not young. It was already an unexpected surprise for Mother Wen to be pregnant at this time.
She lost this baby now, and perhaps she would never have another one.
“Xiu, I’ll make it up to you.” Father Gu held her hand and made the promise.
After waiting for Father Gu to leave, Ming Shu came in slowly.
“See, his daughter’s career is important, but your daughter’s is not.”
“I’m sorry, Little Di, I let you be wronged before.” She’d debased herself because of the difference between her and Father Gu’s identities.
After finishing the above sentence, Mother Wen was silent.
Falling in love with someone happened in an instant.
Being deadly disappointed at someone also happened in an instant.
When the truth was hidden away, everything seemed fine.
When the truth was torn open, it turned out the inside was already full of holes. Everything was just self-deception.
“Little Di, this matter… I’ll just leave it to you.”
Finally, on one night, Ming Shu heard Mother Wen utter a long sigh.
“He and I should never have been together. It was meant to be like this decades ago.”
She was the one who didn’t let go.
But he had betrayed her in those days by marrying a woman who was good for his family; she should have seen him clearly then.
“I never liked him, but looking back, he was the best for me…”
This “him” she was talking about Wen Di’s biological father.
“But I treated him badly.”
“I always compared them, but he never said anything. At that time, I was too young to understand anything.”
Mother Wen rambled on for a long time.
Ming Shu became drowsy while listening to her. She spirited up to hear Mother Wen’s long recollection.
The Host’s father died early.
She heard that it was a car accident.
He worked overtime and drove home spiritlessly. Then he was hit by a car on the way.
The one responsible compensated them with some money.
Mother Wen used the money to live and raise the Host.
At ordinary times, she would do some easy work and use the money to make little investments. Their life was not very hard.
But in the Host’s memory, she barely heard Mother Wen talk about her father.
Perhaps some people wouldn’t realize their own good fortune until a long time later.
Father Gu wanted to persuade Mother Wen, but the latter had suddenly changed her mind and wouldn’t see him again.
Father Gu was a little panicked for a time.
As Father Gu was trying to think of other ways, he suddenly received a call from the police.
Ming Shu provided new evidence for them.
The first was the injury identification report, and the second was a little out of Father Gu’s expectation.
It was the villa’s camera footage.
The video showed clearly that it was Gu Xi who pushed Mother Wen downstairs.
And according to the video, Gu Xi was frozen on the spot for about one minute. Then she went down and stood beside Mother Wen for a long time.
Judging from the scene, Mother Wen was still conscious at the time.
Because the video was silent, they couldn’t hear what the two were saying.
But then Gu Xi left, leaving Mother Wen alone on the floor.
“Impossible!”
Father Gu didn’t believe it.
“Wen Di faked this. The villa’s camera was broken, how could it be recorded?”
He deleted the video personally.
How could she have this?
“Mr. Gu, please calm down.”
The police comforted Father Gu.
“She must have faked the video!”
“We’ll find out,” the police said. “But Mr. Gu, I would like to remind you that if you hide the truth, you will only increase the criminal responsibility for Miss Gu Xi.”
Pushing a woman down some stairs, and causing her to abort…
The crime of intentional injury.
If she had known she was pregnant, it would only make it worse.
Father Gu was silent.
The police soon identified the authenticity of the footage.
But the video was not a fake.
Ming Shu sent her mother to the hospital and returned to the villa to copy the video.
And Ming Shu knew that the villa was under surveillance because of the servants.
On one occasion, the Host came back and was standing before a room. Some servant told her that the villa had cameras with an unkind tone.
The servant was probably warning her not to do something stealthily.
The servant’s attitude left the Host with a clear impression.
In the face of evidence, Father Gu could no longer deny it. He had to seek help through his interpersonal network; meanwhile, he tried to contact Mother Wen.
As long as she would let pass, they could handle the matter privately.
Mother Wen made a tough decision not to see Father Gu.
Ming Shu guarded her at the hospital so Father Gu couldn’t get in.
Then the media somehow learned of the matter and someone reported it.
The story wasn’t focused on Mother Wen, after all she was just a common person; instead, it pushed Gu Xi into the public eye.
She pushed her stepmother down some stairs.
The police investigated her.
There was even a picture of her being taken away by the police. So the news quickly went viral.
When Father Gu tried to block the news, it was already too late.
Gu Xi begged Cui Jingyang for help.
The beauty was in need of help, so of course Cui Jingyang agreed to help.
But before he could do anything, a series of reports about him popped up on the Internet.
His perfect image collapsed before these reports.
According to the story, Cui Jingyang had changed women frequently.
Judging from the pictures, people could see how cautious Cui Jingyang was.
He didn’t go to hotels.
He didn’t go to his villas, either.
Apparently it was not just a matter of a day or two for the paparazzi to take these pictures.
But the pictures were not the point.
The key was the confessions of the girl attached below.
It was a video of no one. In the video, the girl revealed Cui Jingyang’s evil deeds.
He was not human at all. Not only did he have special hobbies, he would film them and threaten them.
When he needed them, they must be on call at any moment.
When he didn’t need them, they weren’t allowed to appear in front of him.
Cui Jingyang was rich, and it seemed normal for him to play women.
But he had special hobbies. If this got out, it would be bad for him and bad for Hengfeng Group.
After all, there were many people coveting his position.
No matter if it was for retaining his good image, or for keeping the position as president of Hengfeng Group, or just for his own hobbies.
Cui Jingyang didn’t want anyone to know about it.
But now…
They were exposed on the Internet without reservation.
