Even the assistant felt awkward as he stood by the side. Gu Ruochu felt hurt by the scene before her eyes. She felt as if she was an outsider meddling in their relationship.
2As for Lan Nuo's words, every one of them was clear and numb in her heart. If Xu Yichen was really in prison because of Ning Tangxi, what could Gu Ruochu do?
2A sense of powerlessness spread throughout her body.
2"Is Lan Nuo your lawyer?" Gu Ruochu asked Huo Nanchen, but she already knew the answer in her heart.
2His child was injured. A powerful man would do his best to protect his woman and child. What else was there to ask?
2She turned to Ning Tangxi. "I'd like to talk to you about Xu Yichen. He's my friend. If it's convenient for you, Miss Ning, would you like to talk to me in private?"
2Ning Tangxi knew about the relationship between Gu Ruochu and Xu Yichen. Upon her arrival, she had investigated Gu Ruochu's friends and connections. She knew who Gu Ruochu was here for.
2"Miss Gu, are you here for Xu Yichen?" Ning Tangxi shook her head and looked at the child on the bed.
2"Cheng Xi hasn't woken up yet. I'm afraid that I don't have the time. Besides, I've already left this matter to the police and Lan Nuo. Your friend's actions were extremely vile. He dared to lay his hands on my child. Lan Nuo said that he would receive a heavy sentence."
2"What you mean is that you are willing to take this to court? You know that this was just an accident. The situation back then was so chaotic, how could anyone tell who was who?" Gu Ruochu controlled her temper and felt her head beginning to ache.
2She did not expect Ning Tangxi to compromise easily. The last bit of hope she had was completely gone.
2"Miss Gu..." Ning Tangxi sighed, "Please speak in a nicer tone. I'm the victim here. I have no desire to offend anyone. There was no reason for him to lay his hands on Cheng Xi."
2She paused and raised her eyes to look at Gu Ruochu's face. "Since Xu Yichen is your friend, I don't want to make any malicious assumptions. Miss Gu, I only want to live a peaceful life with my child."
2Ning Tangxi's hint was obvious. She was implying that Xu Yichen had laid his hands on her child because of Gu Ruochu.
2Gu Ruochu smiled. "Miss Ning, what kind of threat do you think your child poses to me? Your child doesn't seem to belong to my husband, does he?"
2Ning Tangxi's expression finally changed. "I don't understand why Miss Gu has been targeting me. Could it be that Nanchen has come to visit my child and made you unhappy? I've already said that there's nothing going on between me and Nanchen. Don't misunderstand the situation."
2"You've already said that it's a misunderstanding. What do you have that would make you my target? I've tried to be factual, but I don't understand why you are using the child as an excuse. It's also strange."
2Ning Tangxi's expression turned uglier. She never thought that Gu Ruochu would ridicule her to such an extent.
2"Since Miss Ning doesn't want to settle this matter privately, I will find a lawyer and file a lawsuit. I'll see you in court." Gu Ruochu did not stay any longer and turned to leave the ward.
2Gu Ruochu had completly ignored Huo Nanchen. He followed behind her as she marched off. Before he could even touch Gu Ruochu, she had already dodged him. "Don't touch me!"
2Her voice was trembling. Gu Ruochu had lost control of her emotions.
2"I'm sorry, I have to go," Gu Ruochu explained. Her eyes were blank as she quickened her pace and left.
2"Nan..."
2Before Ning Tangxi could say a word, Huo Nanchen had disappeared and was chasing after Gu Ruochu.
2Gu Ruochu walked hurriedly, but Huo Nanchen quickly caught up with her. He held her tightly, and she lost all her strength.
