Chapter 228 Her Script
Chapter 228 Her Script
Xu Youyou watched helplessly as a streak of blood suddenly dripped from top to bottom onto Gu Xueying's calf. In a trance, she seemed to see the day before she was kicked out of the Gu family in her previous life.
On the stairs that day, Gu Xueying suddenly grabbed Xu Youyou's hand without any warning, and then rolled down the stairs. She lay in a pool of blood, her face as pale as paper.
What followed was everyone's accusations against Xu Youyou.
Xu Youyou tried her best to explain, but no one listened.
She still hasn't figured out why Gu Xueying used a child to frame her. It was obvious that everyone was surrounding Gu Xueying at that time, and Xu Youyou could not pose any threat to her at all.
When she saw the scene repeat itself, her first reaction was to turn sideways, grab Lu Jingyao's sleeve, and say, "I didn't push you!"
A flash of surprise flashed across Lu Jingyao's eyes, and then he gently patted Xu Youyou's shoulder and comforted her, "Youyou, we all saw it. This matter has nothing to do with you. Don't worry. We have the best legal team and we are not afraid of them making false claims."
Perhaps it was Lu Jingyao's exceptionally firm attitude, or perhaps it was because his voice carried some strange magic, Xu Youyou gradually calmed down.
On the other hand, Gu Yuji's expression was particularly agitated. He didn't care about Gu Xueying's miserable state at this moment. Instead, he grabbed her shoulders and asked, "Did you do this on purpose? You just don't want this child to be born!"
Gu Xueying frowned and kept saying things like, "Hospital...stomachache..."
But Gu Yuji acted as if he couldn't hear anything, and he was extremely manic: "Why are you taking revenge on me like this? Speak! Explain!"
Xu Youyou felt like she was watching a lousy drama about a domineering CEO. She really didn't like Gu Xueying, but she was not interested in watching a pregnant woman suffer.
"Let's send the person to the hospital first." Xu Youyou reminded.
Unexpectedly, upon hearing Xu Youyou's voice, Gu Yuji immediately turned around and questioned her with red eyes, "Who told you to come here? Why did you provoke Xueying? Xu Youyou, is this your revenge?"
Xu Youyou: ...damn idiot.
Lu Jingyao took a quick step forward and lifted Gu Yuji's collar: "If you don't know how to speak, don't speak!"
"What? You want to vent your anger for your woman? Our President Lu, are you going to do it yourself? If you have the guts, hit me!" Gu Yuji looked fearless and extremely arrogant.
Xu Youyou was afraid that Lu Jingyao would be provoked by his provocation, so she quickly reached out and pulled him, saying, "Jingyao, don't bother with this lunatic."
For the sake of his girlfriend, Lu Jingyao threw Gu Yuji to the ground and threatened her coldly, "The Gu family will pay the price for you."
Gu Yuji acted as if he didn't hear the threat.
In the end, Gu Xueying was sent to the hospital by Xu Youyou's bodyguard.
Just like in the previous life, Gu Xueying is gone again.
However, Xu Youyou noticed something different. Now looking at Gu Yuji's neurotic reaction, how could she not see that Gu Xueying's child was most likely his.
Xu Youyou only knew that the three brothers of the Gu family doted on Gu Xueying, but she never knew that Gu Yuji was "doted" in this way.
She couldn't help but think of the child she had lost in her previous life, and suddenly she understood many things. Could it be that just because the child was Gu Yuji's, Gu Xueying didn't want to keep the child?
But Gu Xueying didn't want Gu Yuji to know about this. So, as the most marginalized person in the Gu family and the person she hated the most at that time, Xu Youyou naturally became the scapegoat.
Gu Yuji seemed to value this child very much. After learning that the child was gone, he didn't even look at Gu Xueying, didn't even pay the medical expenses, and left directly.
Xu Youyou felt that she was quite wronged. She was the one who paid for the medical expenses. Looking at Gu Xueying lying on the hospital bed with her eyes closed and no sound, Xu Youyou inexplicably felt a little sorry for her.
Lu Jingyao's voice interrupted Xu Youyou's thoughts.
"I've asked someone to call Gu Fengchuan. Someone will go and ask him to pay the medical bills. Jinling and Shanghai are close to each other, so he will be here soon. I've also left someone here to watch over him, so he'll be fine." Lu Jingyao comforted Xu Youyou.
Xu Youyou nodded slightly, but before she left, the person on the bed made a sound.
"Don't... don't leave me..."
Gu Xueying stretched out her hand with difficulty, and from her position, she was just able to grab Lu Jingyao's sleeve.
Lu Jingyao seemed to have an extra pair of eyes, and he moved very quickly to avoid the grab.
"Don't worry, Miss Gu. We will leave a bodyguard to look after you so that you won't be alone." Lu Jingyao said in a deep voice.
The bodyguard he specifically asked to stay was Li Zhuang. Li Zhuang was as his name suggested, extremely tall and mighty, looking fierce and tough. It was said that he had scared many children to tears.
Gu Xueying felt her eyes hurt just by looking at Li Zhuang.
But she has fallen to this point now, and she will naturally not miss the opportunity to talk to Lu Jingyao face to face.
"Lu Jingyao, we've met before, don't you remember me?" Gu Xueying asked.
Xu Youyou frowned slightly, feeling as if she had entered the script of her previous life.
Lu Jingyao's expression was as if he was about to explode. "Miss Gu, we were all in Shanghai before, so perhaps we did meet. I don't think Miss Gu has any particularly unforgettable characteristics, so I don't remember having any special interactions with her."
Lu Jingyao almost pointed his finger to the sky and swore to Xu Youyou that he and Gu Xueying had nothing to do with each other.
Gu Xueying choked upon hearing this and said, "When I was seven years old, I went to your house with my parents for a banquet. I accidentally broke one of your father's collections, which was worth over 100 million yuan. I was so anxious that I hid under the table and cried. At that time, you kept comforting me... Have you forgotten everything?"
Lu Jingyao had a good memory. When he heard this, his face darkened on the spot: "I haven't forgotten."
"Brother Lu, you were so gentle back then. I've kept it in my heart for all these years... I've never met anyone better than you..."
Xu Youyou listened to their past, and the familiar atmosphere made her want to leave on the spot.
Lu Jingyao held Xu Youyou's hand tightly: "It's just a small matter, there's really nothing between her and me."
Gu Xueying seemed to be trapped in the script she had woven. She cried and said, "Brother Lu, I hope you can help me for the sake of our past friendship. Gu Yuji has gone crazy. I beg you to take me away, to a place where Gu Yuji is not. You have already helped me once, can't you help me again?"
