Lin Ruoxi grabbed her cell phone tighter and whispered nervously, “Brother Mohan, I’ve done what you asked me to. Can you make sure those kidnappers don’t disclose anything?”
She had no idea how the several kidnappers she hired had landed in Gu Mohan’s hands. Gu Mohan had used this to threaten her and ordered her to shame Lu Qi’er at the press conference. For Lu Qi’er, her arrival was the straw that broke the camel’s back.
“Sure. I’ve already sent them to prison. They won’t say a word.”
Lin Ruoxi heaved a sigh of relief, “Thank you Brother Mohan…”
“But…”
Even before she could finish saying what she wanted to say, Gu Mohan had already interrupted her.
“But what?” Lin Ruoxi jumped. She knew she could never win over this man and dared not do so.
“Though I’ve let you off, you caused Lin s.h.i.+yu to miscarriage, so Qinglun will never let you off. I heard that one of the Lin s.h.i.+ Group experienced a capital chain rupture yesterday and they lost several billion. All these years, the Lin family has been going downhill. They can’t afford to cough out several billion. If things continue like that, the Lin family will really fall.”
Lin Ruoxi stiffened at his words. Fu Qinglun had already taken action against the Lin family last night and he was in fact very brutal.
As Lin s.h.i.+yu had a miscarriage, Fu Qinglun wanted the entire Lin family to be buried with the dead.
She felt extremely jealous and filled with resentment after grandpa gave her a slap in the morning. However, being left with no choice, she could only go to the hospital to beg Fu Qinglun to let her off.
After hanging up the call, Lin Ruoxi rushed to the hospital.
…
At this moment, Gu Mohan sat lazily on the chair. In front of him was a large window in which he overlooked the entire capital.
“President, Lu Qi’er has been subjected to several attacks and has been sent to the hospital. She’s finished,” said Yan Dong.
Gu Mohan shoved his hand into his pocket, his deep eyes sharp and amused. He quirked his lips. “Not so fast. I’m certain someone will come and pull her out of this mess very soon.”
“President, you’re talking about… Lu Qi’er’s father, Lu Jinwen?”
Gu Mohan laughed, “No matter how big of a mistake Lu Qi’er has made, there will always be someone there to protect her. It’s all because she’s the eldest daughter of the Lu family. This status of hers will serve as her safety net forever.”
Yan Dong thought about it for a while. “The Lin family has been going downhill for the past few years but has not fallen yet. Everyone knows that there’s a big, mysterious figure supporting the Lin family and that figure is none other than… Lu Jinwen. Looking at how wealthy the Lu family is, it’s really easy for them to cough out money for the Lin family. The Lin family really knows how to give birth to their daughters.”
“Exactly. Lin Xuanji and Lin Xuanyin were twins. No matter who it was for, Lu Jinwen will never let the Lin family fall…” Gu Mohan raised his eyebrows. “Rumors have spread that the daughters of the Lin family are extremely blessed. No doubt about this when it comes to Lin Xuanyin and Lin Xuanji. When it comes to the younger generation, let’s not talk about Lin Ruoxi because she’s the outlier. Lin s.h.i.+yu seems to be the one lucky enough to have inherited the previous generation’s brilliance. If you were to compare her to Lu Qi’er…” Gu Mohan snorted in contempt.
The blessings of the Lin family had pa.s.sed on to Lu Qi’er and Lin s.h.i.+yu who were cousins. Despite Lin s.h.i.+yu’s brilliance and attaining the reputation as Karghalik’s northern beauty with the southern beauty, Mo’er, Lu Qi’er paled in comparison.
“President, although the daughters of the Lin family are extraordinary and youthful but rumors have been spreading. The daughter of the Lin family has been subjected to a love spell, or rather, curse. It seems the daughters of the Lin family can never be with their loved ones.
Love curse?
Gu Mohan laughed, he would never believe that.
At this moment, a melodious ringtone sounded. He shoved his hands in his trouser pocket to reach for his phone. His face lit up with a tinge of tenderness. It was his wife, his Mrs Gu.
He answered the phone and whispered, “You’re not angry anymore?”
Back at the Champagne apartment, Auntie Wu turned off the television. Tang Mo’er held her cell phone in her hands and quirked the corner of her lips. Never in her wildest dreams did she expect such a twist of events at the press conference.
Gu Mohan did not have s.e.x with Lu Qi’er, but he had planned a subst.i.tute from the beginning.
Moreover, the subst.i.tute was a fool.
Lu Qi’er must be suffering from a mental breakdown.
Moreover, Lin Ruoxi and Lu Qi’er’s dog-eat-dog scene was extremely dramatic. After their live exposé, her reputation had been restored, just like that.
She knew all this was the doing of her Mr Gu. He would always have a solution to all problems.
“Mr Gu, I’m not angry,” Tang Mo’er replied in her defense as she pouted her cherry red lips.
“You’re not angry? Then who was the one who held her clothes so tight last night and did not even let me touch her?”
“…”
He touched her last night?
No wonder she dreamt that he had touched her and kissed her.
“Mrs Gu, you have to remember that my appet.i.te has been tailored so it only reacts to you now. I’ll never touch another woman.”
Tang Mo’er soft face lit up like a rose and she felt a fuzzy warmth envelope her. “Mm, I got it.”
“Go and have a bath now so that you’re fresh, then wait for me tonight in bed, hm?”
“What… What are you planning?”
“Mrs Gu, you still need to bear me a son!”
—-Mrs Gu, my Mrs Gu. I want you to bear a son for me.
The deep voice rang in her ears. It was real, he really must have said that to her last night.
…
In the hospital.
Lin s.h.i.+yu’s eyelashes fluttered and she opened her eyes.
The moment she opened her eyes, she saw a handsome and presentable figure in front of her.
As she was sleeping on her side, it was easy for her to spot the man. Fu Qinglun had been by her side all along. Perhaps, he had fallen asleep as he was too tired.
Their faces were extremely close to each other such that she could hear his shallow breathing. His jet black eyes were closed and he drooled till there was a small pool of saliva near his mouth. Who knew that the most respected man in the capital would look so sloppy.
Lin s.h.i.+yu moved about and realized that he had held her palm tightly. Like that, his body temperature pressed against her midly cold skin, keeping it warm.
Lin s.h.i.+yu froze for two seconds and retracted her hands forcefully.
Fu Qinglun woke up with a start. As he had only closed his eyes for a little while, his eyes were still bloodshot.
He immediately stood up and glanced at her. He asked her anxiously, “You’re awake, is there any part of your body that hurts? I’ll call the doctor.”
Lin s.h.i.+yu raised her eyebrows. She hugged her tummy and curled herself into a ball.
Her tiny face immediately broke out in sweat as she began to tremble.
Seeing her in this state made Fu Qinglun panic. It was as if a large black hand had squeezed his heart, making it hard for him to breathe.
The man’s tall body bent down. He wiped the cold sweat off her forehead and said in a tense voice, “Where does it hurt? Tell me quickly!”
