CHAPTER 143: CHAPTER 143: THE TRUTH REVEALED

Gu Ningyue had never felt so speechless before; the look in her eyes at the man in front of her was not that of looking at a father, but rather as if looking at an idiot.

She did not know how the original owner tolerated such a father, but as for her, she couldn’t stand it!

"Are you out of your mind a little bit?" Gu Ningyue leaned one hand on the table, leaning her upper body forward, her eyes staring closely at Gu Zheng as if to see through him, "I am your daughter. It’s one thing not to believe what I say, but now you’re making wild assumptions. I ask you, even if I did all this, what are you going to do about it? Are you going to have the police arrest me, or what? Hmm?"

She dared to bet that if Gu Heng had done these things, Gu Zheng would definitely find every way possible to clean up the mess for him.

Even if it wasn’t Gu Heng, but Gu Wanwan, he wouldn’t just stand by and watch her get into trouble without doing anything.

Otherwise, the 50 million from the Ye Family wouldn’t have been so easy to get!

After a long time, Gu Zheng sighed deeply, "Ning Yue, if it really was you, you... should go and turn yourself in!"

Gu Ningyue almost spat out a mouthful of old blood in anger, "Fine! Very well! I’ll call the police right now!"

She took out her phone and suddenly remembered something, laughing, "Oh right, your precious son was not only involved in gambling before but also in prostitution, so it’s just the right time to have the police check it out thoroughly! I believe justice will be served!"

After Gu Ningyue finished speaking, Gu Zheng’s face suddenly changed.

It seemed only at that moment did he finally remember that his son might not be a good person.

"Wait!" Gu Zheng stopped Gu Ningyue, "Let’s not alert the police about your brother’s matter for now!"

Gu Ningyue shook her phone, "When in trouble, find the police, Dad. I think it’s best to report this!"

As she finished speaking, Gu Ningyue had already dialed the number.

A few minutes later, Gu Zheng watched as Gu Ningyue finished describing the case to the police, then hung up the phone.

"Once Gu Heng wakes up, the police will probably come to take evidence and record statements," Gu Ningyue said with a smile, "How about it, Dad? Maybe the truth will come out soon!"

Thankfully, when she previously reported a case, Ling Tianyou was there, and she got Director Chen’s number.

Gu Zheng looked at Gu Ningyue and asked, "How do you have Director Chen’s phone number?"

Gu Ningyue shrugged, "Probably because I am always restless! After all, I can’t even tolerate my own brother."

Gu Zheng was starting to doubt what he heard on the phone; if it were truly Gu Ningyue’s doing, she wouldn’t be voluntarily calling the police for evidence.

But if it wasn’t Gu Ningyue who orchestrated it, then who could it be?

"Alright, you go out first!" Gu Zheng said after a pause, looking at Gu Ningyue.

Gu Ningyue turned and left, and as the door closed, the smile on her face completely faded.

Just now, Gu Zheng said that Gu Heng shouted her name on the phone and said he was going to kill him.

Who would be so blatant as to commit a crime in the street like that?

Returning to her room, Gu Ningyue thought for a while and finally decided to enlist the help of Ling Tianyou.

After all, in this city of A, there was nothing Ling Tianyou couldn’t find out!

If there were, it would be because Ling Tianyou didn’t want to investigate.

With this thought, Gu Ningyue called Ling Tianyou and explained the reason.

After listening, Ling Tianyou said, "I thought you suddenly called me because you missed me!"

Gu Ningyue was taken aback, then said with a guilty conscience, "Of course I missed you..."

The first thing was wanting your help! That counts as a type of missing... right!

Ling Tianyou let out a soft laugh, "I’ll give you an answer tomorrow. If you’re really upset, just come home."

Gu Ningyue pouted, thinking it would be better to stay here than go home.

After all, she dared to argue with Gu Zheng and those people, but she definitely didn’t dare to with Ling Tianyou.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Ningyue lay on the bed, her mind feeling dizzy.

Recently, many unexpected things had happened, making her head spin.

On her phone, the group chat of three people had long been silent.

After thinking for a long time, Gu Ningyue opened the computer, logged into a website, and quickly searched for the high school sophomore named Lin Mingyuan.

What she found was astonishingly shocking to Gu Ningyue.

This Lin Mingyuan turned out to be the child of a relative of Lin Ruixian’s, Lin Mengyao.

Lin Mengyao’s family background was ordinary; although related to Lin Ruixian, they didn’t have good conditions.

During university, Lin Mengyao was with a wealthy older man, and they maintained a relationship.

After graduation, that older man rarely made appearances.

Not long after graduating, Lin Mengyao met her current husband and quickly got married.

Then, the next year, she gave birth to Lin Mingyuan.

Recalling what Lin Ruixian said in the afternoon, Gu Ningyue had a bold guess in her mind.

Lin Mingyuan most likely wasn’t the child of her current husband. Moreover, from the information she found, this man couldn’t possibly afford Lin Mengyao’s current luxury brands.

Lin Mengyao probably had no choice, which was why she sought help from Lin Ruixian.

However, it didn’t seem like Lin Mengyao and Lin Ruixian had a good relationship, did they?

But then, why did her protective charm heat up when Lin Mingyuan got into trouble?

Was it hinting at something to her?

Could it be suggesting that she should get involved in this matter?

And what was going on with the patient in room 409?

With these thoughts, Gu Ningyue decided to return to the hospital once more.

She wanted to see what kind of person the patient in room 409 was to make her protective charm heat up around her neck.

Leaving the villa, Gu Ningyue headed to the hospital.

"Hello, may I ask where the patient from bed 409 went?" Gu Ningyue asked one of the patients who was receiving an IV next to an empty bed.

The patient looked at her and said, "There was no one here when I arrived. Maybe you have the wrong room?"

Stunned, Gu Ningyue stepped out of the room and casually pulled a doctor aside, "Hi, could you tell me if the patient from room 409 is still at this hospital?"

The doctor nodded, "The patient had a condition and was moved to a special ward. It’s room 509 upstairs!"

Gu Ningyue breathed a sigh of relief; as long as they were alive, that was good!

Seeing the condition in the afternoon, she thought...

She went up to the fifth floor and knocked on the door of the room.

A doctor opened the door and looked at Gu Ningyue, asking, "Are you a relative of the patient?"

Gu Ningyue thought for a moment, "Uh, yes!"

The doctor stepped aside and let Gu Ningyue into the room, "The patient hasn’t woken up yet, so you’ll have to wait here for a while."

Gu Ningyue asked, "What happened to him?"

The doctor looked at her and said, "We don’t know exactly why, but he suddenly suffocated. Fortunately, we managed to rescue him in time. You can stay here, and press the button on the bedside if anything happens."
