CHAPTER 394: CHAPTER 241: THIS LITTLE THING, WHEN IT GETS VICIOUS, IT’S REALLY DEADLY! 3

"How is it none of my business now!" Tian Xin is always one to stand up for what’s fair, "You, as Gu Yucheng’s wife, seducing your own uncle-in-law, how shameless is that! And you still have the nerve!"

"I don’t want to be harassed while I’m hospitalized, please leave!" Ji Su pointed at the door, "Otherwise, I’m going to call the police!"

"Fine!" Tian Xin sneered, "Go ahead and call. When the media gets involved, I wonder if it’s you or the esteemed Gu Family that will lose face?"

Ji Su pressed the bell on the bed head and a nurse came in. Ji Su was furious because of Tian Xin, "I don’t want to see unrelated people, get her out!"

At this moment, Tian Xin walked over to her: "Keep on pretending! Of course, I’ll leave, but before I do, let me tell you, Gu Qingchen and Ranran are entwined in love right now! And you, you’re just lonely here, spending the long night with white walls! Also, before I came here, I saw Gu Yucheng enjoying the sea breeze with a pretty young girl by the beach... surely he’s not here to see you... think about it, how miserable you are..."

Of course, all of this was made up by Tian Xin, but she felt that it didn’t matter for someone as shameless as Ji Su; fabricating stories was okay if it could make Ji Su furious.

As expected, Ji Su’s face changed as soon as she heard it.

Ji Su clutched her chest, unable to speak all of a sudden...

The nurse was startled, "Doctor... Doctor..."

Soon after, an on-call doctor rushed in and took Ji Su to the emergency room.

Yang Junyi came out of the operating room and heard about the incident. He walked up to Tian Xin, "Been drinking?"

"Yes!" Tian Xin said proudly, "It’s a pity, I didn’t manage to infuriate Ji Su to death!"

Yang Junyi patted her head, "Alright, the doctors are trying to save her, stop thinking about it!"

"You’re not mad at me?" Tian Xin looked at him with wide eyes.

"What’s there to be mad about?" Yang Junyi took the late-night snack she bought, "Even if there really was something, I take full responsibility."

Tian Xin’s face changed color, "She really is sick?"

"Yes..." Yang Junyi nodded his head, "But I know you’re straightforward. You speak your mind, and it’s not your fault!"

Tian Xin looked at him, "Eat it before it gets cold! You haven’t had dinner yet, have you? Look at you, too busy to even eat..."

Yang Junyi looked at her incessant chatter with eyes full of gentle smiles.

He too was looking forward to married life, even if it meant listening to such nagging forever, it would still be wonderful!

The next day.

Bei Ran and Tian Xin went to the hospital together. Yang Junyi had helped her see her son and daughter, and since Tian Xin was her best friend, Bei Ran had agreed from the beginning to officiate their wedding.

Today, they came to see Yang Junyi’s mother and sought the opinions of the elders.

"Auntie, hello, I’m Bei Ran, Tian Xin’s best friend!" Bei Ran said, "I am very happy to host their wedding. May I ask if you have any requests?"

"Not at all!" Yang’s mother said kindly, "As long as they live well together, I just want to hold grandchildren soon!"

Tian Xin blushed, sitting aside without saying a word.

Bei Ran smiled, "Then, once I have the plan set, I’ll show it to everyone to see if there’s anything to add or refine."

Hospital, ward.

Ji Su lay weakly in her hospital bed while another glamorous middle-aged woman, clutching an LV handbag, wouldn’t stop talking about money, "Where’s the money? Why haven’t you given me this month’s allowance? I’m really strapped for cash..."

"Mom, can you visit me without talking about money every time? I almost died..." Ji Su sighed.

Zhang Yulian immediately glared at her, "You know I need to recover my losses, I want to win more, my luck has been good recently, it’s winning time, how can you have no money? Don’t you know how to ask Gu Yucheng for it?"

"Mom..." Ji Su simply closed her eyes.

Zhang Yulian, seeing Bei Ran and Tian Xin pass by the door, quickly approached, "Are you friends of Ji Su? Are you here to visit her? Please come in!"

Tian Xin was just about to scorn Zhang Yulian when Bei Ran stopped her, "We’re just passing by, we’re not close to her. By the way, Tian Xin, how much profit did we make from that one million I asked you to invest in the energy stocks?"

Tian Xin immediately understood Bei Ran’s intention, "Let me tell you, a full ten million!"

"Great, help me buy more!" Bei Ran said as she left the ward.

"Sure!" Tian Xin followed along with Bei Ran as they left the ward.

Upon hearing there was money to be made in stocks, Zhang Yulian no longer cared about Ji Su and quickly followed them out.

Bei Ran gave Tian Xin a signal, and she left while Tian Xin prepared to drive.

Later, Tian Xin called Bei Ran: "Dear, Zhang Yulian invested the high-interest loan in energy stocks, but this stock is going to fall soon... Let’s just wait for the excitement!"

"I’m thrilled too! But still, thank you so much, Xinxin..." Bei Ran said with a laugh.

"Why be so polite with me!" Tian Xin said with loyalty: "I’d go through fire and water for a friend!"

A few days later, the energy stock plummeted to its limit.

Zhang Yulian had no choice but to shamelessly seek out Ji Su, who was not discharged from the hospital.

She made a call to Gu Qingchen: "Qingchen, could I borrow some money from you?"

Gu Qingchen was busy with work and unaware of what had transpired between them. "Ji Su, why do you suddenly need money?"

"Qingchen, you know my marriage with Yucheng has been in name only. My mother borrowed high-interest loans, and I want to help pay them off. I can only ask you for help now..." Ji Su said sadly.

Gu Qingchen agreed to help her.

After Zhang Yulian repaid the high-interest loan, she went to the hospital and didn’t see Tian Xin and Bei Ran. Encountering Yang Junyi’s future mother-in-law, she went up and insanely pushed Yang’s mother down the stairs...

When the nurses found out, Zhang Yulian hurriedly ran away. Yang’s mother was rushed into the emergency room and ultimately passed away due to unsuccessful resuscitation...

Watching his mother never wake up, Yang Junyi cried with choking sobs.

They say men don’t shed tears easily, not until the moment of true sorrow!

Seeing this, Tian Xin couldn’t help but feel distressed and said, "Junyi, Auntie is gone, you have to comfort Uncle... and, I’m sorry, Auntie was pushed down the stairs by Zhang Yulian. I’m to blame too... If I hadn’t set her up to borrow money for stocks and incurred losses, she wouldn’t have done this to Auntie... I’m sorry, Junyi..."

Yang’s mother had always hoped to see the two children get married, yet, she left the world with regrets without witnessing that moment.

"Tian Xin..." Yang Junyi looked at her, "It’s not your fault! I don’t blame you; I just feel unbearable pain inside. I can’t accept the fact that my mother is gone. I want to be alone with her for a while, could you please go back first?"

His voice was still so tender, but it sounded extraordinarily heartbreaking.

Bei Ran received the news and also arrived at the hospital, where, unexpectedly, she bumped into Gu Qingchen.

Gu Qingchen was there to visit Yang Junyi, "Junyi, death cannot be reversed. You understand this better than anyone else. But Auntie loved you, and she wouldn’t want you to be too heartbroken."

"I know!" Yang Junyi said with sorrow, "Qingchen, we are doctors, yet I couldn’t even save my own dearest one. What’s wrong with me?"

"It’s an accident!" Gu Qingchen sighed, "Who could have expected Zhang Yulian to harm someone who just recovered from a serious illness!"

Yang Junyi nodded.

Gu Qingchen approached Bei Ran. Since their last argument, this was their following encounter, which unexpectedly took place in the hospital due to an incident involving Yang Junyi’s mother.

Bei Ran was also looking at him, feeling sad for Yang Junyi.

"Bei Ran, let’s talk!" Gu Qingchen said.

"What do you think we have to talk about?" Bei Ran stared at him.

Gu Qingchen said in a severe tone: "If you and Tian Xin hadn’t provoked Zhang Yulian, would Yang Junyi’s mother have been attacked by Zhang Yulian? Bei Ran, I know you’re smart. You had countless ways to lure Zhang Yulian into your trap! What was your ultimate goal? To take down Ji Su, right? Am I correct?"

"Correct!" Bei Ran met his gaze, "I indeed find her displeasing! What about it, Gu Qingchen? Does it hurt your feelings when I go after her?"

"I’m grieved by the terrible way Yang Auntie died!" Gu Qingchen stated, "She spent her life hoping for Junyi to wed and build a career, and yet? The wedding hadn’t even taken place before the accident happened!"

"I’m grieved for Yang Auntie too..." Bei Ran choked up, "But that was Zhang Yulian’s fault..."

"If you hadn’t initiated the trouble with Zhang Yulian, Zhang Yulian pushing Yang Auntie down the stairs would have nothing to do with you, Bei Ran," Gu Qingchen said sternly. "What did I say to you? Ji Su has never been a threat to you! Because, in my heart, it’s only you!"

While Gu Qingchen reprimanded her, he pointed to his chest, repeatedly poking at his heart, emphasizing that she was the only one for him.

Bei Ran looked at him with tears in her eyes; she was also heartbroken by Yang Auntie’s death. She didn’t expect Zhang Yulian to harm an innocent person.

Ji Su walked out of the ward and saw Gu Qingchen and Bei Ran talking, both very emotional.

She approached and stood beside Gu Qingchen, gently saying, "Qingchen, you can’t blame Miss Bei for this. It’s my mother’s fault... I’m the one who should apologize to Yang Auntie... If it weren’t for my mother wanting to speculate in stocks, she wouldn’t have lost all her money, and she wouldn’t have borrowed from high-interest lenders. Should we even be involved with that kind of money? Has she gone mad? Why would she push someone in the hospital... I’m sorry, Qingchen, I really am. I’m willing to take on the errors on behalf of my mother..."

Upon hearing this, Tian Xin charged over, "You take responsibility? Fine! Jump off this building then! Join Yang Auntie in death! Ji Su, you hypocrite, you make me sick! Also, if it wasn’t for you two, Yang Auntie would still be alive! You want to take responsibility, right? Then jump!"
