Chapter 1347: Walking In The Backlight (23)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mother Wen hadn’t even known that she was pregnant.
She just felt a little abnormal, and Father Gu took her for an examination a few days ago, but they hadn’t received the results...
Now the baby was gone, and Mother Wen was very sad.
Waiting for Mother Wen’s emotions to stabilize a bit, Ming Shu asked her, “How did you fall?”
Mother Wen avoided her eyes. “I... I lost my balance, and fell down... This baby is not lucky enough.”
“There aren’t any servants in the villa.”
“Your Uncle Gu gave them days off...” Because of the negative news.
Ming Shu looked directly into her eyes. “Mom, tell me the truth, how did you fall?”
“Little Di... I fell down by accident.”
Mother Wen didn’t dare to meet her eyes. “Don’t ask, I want to have some rest.”
“Mom, I’m asking you for the last time, how exactly did you fall? If you still don’t tell me, I won’t ask again.”
She was not interested in caring about such things.
The involved party tried to hide the truth, and the matter had nothing to do with her, so why did she want to go into the whys and wherefores?
Mother Wen was silent.
A long while later, tears trailed down her cheeks.
She wanted to have a baby with Father Gu ever since she was young.
But the baby...
It turned out she was not lucky enough to have that.
“It’s... Gu Xi.”
Gu Xi went home to get her things in the daytime.
Normally, Gu Xi was always gentle and polite to her.
But she seemed upset back then, so Mother Wen asked about it caringly.
At first, Gu Xi was silent and didn’t respond.
Who knew that she would suddenly push her with anger.
Mother Wen said, “She didn’t know that I was pregnant... Just let it pass.”
“If I hadn’t arrived in time, you’d have been dead now.”
Ming Shu then continued calmly, “Even so, you still want to let it pass?”
Mother Wen didn’t answer.
Father Gu arrived early the next morning. Before he entered the patient room, the first thing he did was aim a slap at Ming Shu.
Liang Che happened to see this, so he pulled Ming Shu aside and blocked it by himself with the fastest speed in his life.
Pa!
The clear slap sounded in the room.
He was slapped right in the face.
Liang Che tilted his head a little, revealing a clear palm print on his face.
Like this, you could imagine how much strength Father Gu had used.
“Why did you do that?”
Ming Shu’s eyes shone with the light that Liang Che couldn’t really understand. She pinched his chin with her fingers to see the reddened part on his pale face.
“I can’t let you be slapped.” Liang Che’s voice was still emotionless, as if he couldn’t feel the pain.
“How’s it possible that he could touch me?”
Do you think I’m that weak?
Liang Che: “...”
He just wanted to be the hero and rescue his girl.
Can’t you just say thank you!
A normal girl would show much gratitude and love at this moment!
“You...” Father Gu slapped the wrong person and was a little stunned. After recognizing the man in front of him, he was pissed off again and asked angrily while pointing to her, “Wen Di, what kind of messy people you’ve brought here, isn’t he a reporter? Do you think your mother hasn’t been angered enough? If it weren’t for you, how would your mother have come to this? It was all because of you!”
He dared beat my little demon and shout at me!
Ming Shu released Liang Che, turned to pull Father Gu by the wrist, then threw him on the floor.
Mother Wen couldn’t see this anyway.
They were in the VIP patient room and it was quiet in the corridor, so no one came to stop her.
“You beat him!”
“You shouted at me!”
“I’ve long wanted to beat you!”
“Wen Di, you are crazy!” Father Gu was beaten up and had no chance to fight back. “Stop it!”
Ming Shu gave him two more kicks.
She adjusted her own clothes and stared at Father Gu on the ground. “It was Gu Xi who caused my mother’s abortion, how the hell does it relate to me.”
Father Gu’s face blackened. “What nonsense are you talking about! How does it have anything to do with Gu Xi?”
Ming Shu pulled a smile at her mouth. “If it has anything to do with Gu Xi, just go and ask her. I’ve called the police, anyway.”
Mother Wen was cowardly, fearing that she couldn’t handle the relationship well and would disturb the family.
However, the baby was also a life.
“What’s more, it was you who pursued her and wanted to marry my mother, but why didn’t you dare to admit it to the media? Instead, you made my mother alone bear the rumors all these years, all the misunderstandings by the servants. When did you ever speak for her and clear up the truth?”
As Ming Shu talked, Father Gu’s expression became gloomier. “If it weren’t for you, how would the media have started those rumors?”
“Then why haven’t you thought about who was exactly the initiator?”
Father Gu: “What do you mean?”
“Heh heh.”
Ming Shu pulled Liang Che and went in the patient room, shutting Father Gu outside.
Father Gu knocked, but not a sound came from inside.
Finally, Father Gu was cajoled away by the hospital staff.
Mother Wen was asleep and had no idea what was going on outside.
Ming Shu made Liang Che sit down, took out a box of medicine, and applied it to his reddened and swollen face.
“Don’t do this next time. I’m far more powerful than you think.”
Liang Che: “...”
What do you mean by saying that?
Is that something for a young girl like you to say?
How should I gain my face now?
Ming Shu approached and stared at him for a while. Liang Che was hoping that she might give him a kiss in comfort.
Yet, after waiting for half a day, she squeezed out the words: “This is so ugly.”
So! Ugly!
“No, I must beat him up again.” Ming Shu put down the medicine and left the patient room angrily.
Liang Che: “???”
When Mother Wen woke up, she saw Liang Che sitting by the side, seeming to be thinking about something.
“You... You are?”
He seemed familiar to the eye, but Mother Wen couldn’t recall his name immediately.
Naturally, Mother Wen had seen Liang Che’s face in those entertainment news and gossip magazines. But she didn’t believe that her daughter would do that kind of thing. Those people must have started the rumors willfully.
Besides, there was a palm print on Liang Che’s half face now. It was normal that Mother Wen didn’t recognize him.
Liang Che was also a little stunned.
How should he introduce himself?
I’m the boy toy she kept?
“Hi, Aunt, I’m Wen Di’s... friend.” Boyfriend!
“Oh, Little Di’s friend.” Mother Wen immediately revealed a smile. “Where’s Little Di? Why did she leave you here alone?”
“She...”
She went out to beat someone.
Liang Che hurriedly made up an excuse. “She went out to answer a call, so I’m staying here for a moment.”
Mother Wen nodded, her eyes falling on his face. “Your face...”
“It’s okay. Just some accident.”
Mother Wen was a little suspicious. But she didn’t see any sign of lying in Liang Che’s expression.
Where did Little Di meet such a friend?
She really thought he looked so familiar.
Ming Shu didn’t come back until a few minutes later.
“Mom, you’re awake?”
Mother Wen nodded. “What took you so long? It’s impolite to leave your friend here with me.”
“What did he tell you about himself?” Ming Shu grabbed the key.
Mother Wen was confused. “A friend.”
Ming Shu looked at Liang Che.
Liang Che was a little nervous. Didn’t she want him to say that?
That’s right.
I’m nothing but a toy boy she kept.
“Mom, let me give you a formal introduction. This is Liang Che, my boyfriend.”
Mother Wen: “...”
Liang Che: “...”
