Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 417: Ruined in an Instant

If it were the original owner, I wonder what expression Gu Zheng’s words would bring to his face.

Would it be anger or sadness? Or perhaps helplessness, having long resigned to fate?

"Everything Gu Wanwan is going through now is karma, Dad, do you believe in karma?"

Gu Ningyue let out a cold laugh, feeling it unfair for the original owner.

Such a man, how could he be worthy of the original owner’s mother, such a good woman?

Even as she walked out of the Gu Family office with her suitcase, she still felt upset.

She slipped out the back door of the building, but as soon as she descended the steps, a man stepped forward to block her path.

"Please wait, Young Madam!"

Gu Ningyue sighed, realizing she couldn’t escape Ling Tianyou’s reach: "Did Ling Tianyou send you?"

The man nodded: "Yes! So, please don’t make things difficult for us."

Gu Ningyue nodded and replied, looking at him: "I can go back with you, but I need to go to the hospital first, is that okay?"

The man hesitated for a while, considering Gu Ningyue’s previous skills. Could he and his people really stop her?

If Gu Ningyue ran away on his watch, he wouldn’t be able to face President Ling.

"It won’t take more than half an hour, I want to see my sister." Gu Ningyue mentioned Gu Wanwan: "She tried to commit suicide by jumping off a building, it won’t take long."

The man reluctantly nodded upon hearing her mention Gu Wanwan: "Fine, no more than half an hour."

Gu Ningyue acknowledged, placing the suitcase in the back. As she got into the car, she heard the driver up front say: "Young Madam, President Ling’s temper has been bad lately. When you return, please bear with it a bit."

Otherwise, they’d be the ones to suffer during this time.

During the days Gu Ningyue wasn’t in City A, Ling Tianyou’s temper became significantly worse.

"Hmm, I understand."

She left just like that, anyone would be upset.

Moreover, wasn’t she Ling Tianyou’s fiancée?

Driving all the way to the hospital, Gu Ningyue looked at the two men following her and said: "You don’t need to guard so closely. I said I would go back with you, and I will."

The two men exchanged glances, not taking her words seriously.

After all, if Gu Ningyue dared to play tricks on Master Ling, what could they do?

Once they entered the hospital, seeing the two still closely following her, Gu Ningyue had no choice but to let them be.

Anyway, once she saw that doctor, all she needed was a few words before leaving.

Reaching the floor where Gu Wanwan was, Gu Ningyue asked a doctor walking towards her and then walked to the end of the corridor, finally seeing the office she was looking for.

"Wait for me at the door! I need to talk to the doctor about my sister’s condition. This is the fifth floor, I can’t possibly jump out and run."

The two men exchanged looks, positioning themselves at the door like sentinels.

Gu Ningyue knocked on the door, and Li Jing’s clear voice came from inside: "Come in!"

Gu Ningyue pushed the door open, closing it behind her: "Hello, Director Li."

Li Jing paused with the pen in his hand and then capped it: "You’re Gu Wanwan’s sister?"

Gu Ningyue nodded: "It’s an honor that Director Li remembers me."

Li Jing smiled and asked Gu Ningyue to sit. After she did, he looked at her: "Miss Gu is even more beautiful than in the reports. It’s hard to forget. Is this visit to ask about Wanwan’s condition?"

Wanwan? Gu Ningyue gave a faint smile, such an affectionate way to call her.

"Isn’t she already crazy?" Gu Ningyue’s beautiful eyes fixed on Li Jing, who had a face somewhat resembling Ye Mingchen.

It seems what Gu Wanwan likes is always the same type!

Is this what they call birds of a feather flock together?

Li Jing nodded: "Yes, it’s a pity. We didn’t expect it to turn out this way."

Gu Ningyue raised the corners of her mouth: "Really? Director Li didn’t expect this? Hehe... If it were someone else saying this, I’d believe it, but coming from you, Director Li, it’s hard to buy."

Li Jing was slightly taken aback: "What do you mean by this, Miss Gu?"

Gu Ningyue stood up, walking slowly to Li Jing’s desk, her voice gentle yet piercing like sharp blades that stalled his thinking.

"You’re the one who drove Gu Wanwan crazy, aren’t you? Others might not see your intentions, but you can’t fool me."

"Director Li, who made you do this? Or was it your decision? Hmm?"

Li Jing looked at Gu Ningyue, his expression unchanged, but the pressure in his hands gradually increased.

This was something even Gu Wanwan’s parents didn’t find suspicious, how could this woman discover it during her one visit?

Had she been investigating him all along?

How much did she know by now?

"I don’t understand what you’re saying, Miss Gu." Li Jing looked at Gu Ningyue: "I didn’t want to see Wanwan end up like this. She’s my patient, and regardless of what she did before, I’m responsible for her. If there’s any misunderstanding between you and Wanwan, please resolve it yourselves. I only wish to heal and save people."

Gu Ningyue smiled faintly: "Director Li, do you think there’s no evidence because you won’t admit it? Some drugs might fool others, but not here, you know?"

"Gu Wanwan is crazy now, and the hospital has already certified it, right? Fortunately, I know an expert in this field, the renowned international expert Mr. J. Director Li, have you heard of him? I wouldn’t mind spending more money on her recovery so she can face legal consequences."

Mr. J...

Li Jing’s fingers clenched into a fist: "Miss Gu, defaming others comes with its consequences."

Gu Ningyue shrugged nonchalantly: "Whether it’s defamation or not will be clear once Mr. J conducts a thorough examination on Gu Wanwan and reviews the drugs that Director Li administered to her. What do you think?"

Li Jing stared at her, opening his mouth, suddenly finding himself unable to utter a word.

Gu Ningyue’s confident demeanor indicated she knew something.

What should he do now?

Those drugs remain in the body for fifteen days, what if Mr. J finds something during this period?

If that happens, not only will he fail to get what he wants, but everything he has now will be ruined, won’t it?
