Chapter 149: Seeking Justice

The environment she grew up in was different. She did not know what love was. She was a little confused when she saw Qiao Rou distorting the truth in order to get Gu Moling. Then, she saw Meng Wan destroying the banquet to frame her. This time, Shen Ying did not hesitate to hurt herself to get Gu Zheng. Hence, she was confused by all this.

If love was obtained by hurting oneself, she would rather never have love. However, Gu Zheng told her that this was not the case. When one truly loved someone, they had to protect themselves.

Gu Zheng could not see his surroundings and could only sense Qiao Xi’s body temperature. “So in the future, you must protect yourself and not be injured.”

Qiao Xi instinctively said, “No one can hurt me. I’m super powerful.”

The dark room was silent for a while. Gu Zheng chuckled and tightened his grip on Qiao Xi’s waist. “Right, you’re the most powerful.”

With that, Gu Zheng’s hand on her waist slid down to hold her hand. “It’s getting late. I’ll bring you out.”

Qiao Xi reckoned that the poison in Shen Ying’s body was about to take effect, so she nodded and left with Gu Zheng. The group of people outside the dark room were silent like cicadas in the winter. They did not dare to stop Gu Zheng from personally coming to get Qiao Xi.

Although Madam Gu had said that she would lock Qiao Xi up for a day, Gu Zheng was the head of the Gu family and their true master. Between Gu Zheng and Madam Gu, they naturally had to listen to Gu Zheng.

Gu Zheng lowered his head to look at her. “Are you going to look for Shen Ying with me, or are you going back to rest first? I can go alone.”

Qiao Xi raised her head to look at him.

“I’m going to seek justice for you.”

Song Shiyu was standing at the side with a pile of documents. After hearing Gu Zheng’s words, he said, “President Gu, I’ve already gathered the evidence you wanted.”

Gu Zheng sneered. “Then let’s go.”

…

Shen Ying’s head was wrapped in a thick layer of bandages, and one could vaguely see the blood seeping through. Her forehead received a heavy blow, and the wound caused her to cry. Madam Gu frowned. “The doctor said that you have to take good care of the wound on your forehead. You’ll recover if you take good care of it.”

What she meant was that the wound on her forehead might leave a scar! When Madam Wang and Shen Ying heard the news, their expressions changed instantly. Shen Ying widened her eyes in disbelief.

What? Why would she be disfigured? She just wanted to teach Qiao Xi a lesson, but she never thought that she would be disfigured!

Shen Ying was so angry that her entire body was trembling. Qiao Xi, that b*tch! If Qiao Xi did not snatch Brother Gu Zheng away, she would not have deliberately hurt herself! It was all Qiao Xi’s fault!

Madam Wang cried out in sorrow, “Qiao Xi! Damn that Qiao Xi! She’s forcing Shen Ying to her death! Which girl doesn’t want to be beautiful? Qiao Xi actually wanted to ruin Shen Ying’s face because she’s jealous of Shen Ying. How can there be such a vicious woman?!”

Shen Ying quickly composed herself. Now that she was already disfigured, she had to make Qiao Xi pay the price. She could not take this lying down!

“Aunt, I’m fine. I don’t care if I’m disfigured or not. It’s good enough that I’m still alive. It’s really good…”
