Qin Zhen was confused. How did Xie Ru suddenly see her?
“I’m afraid Second Aunt has forgotten. Ever since my eye was injured, I haven’t seen a doctor. So, what doctor’s advice are you talking about? Don’t make a fool of yourself.”
“Can you see?”
Qin Zhen pointed at Xie Ru’s eyes and asked with a trembling voice. Her eyes were filled with disbelief.
“Madam Xie, what are you talking about? My wife is not terminally ill. Her eyes will recover sooner or later. Moreover, the Gu family can afford to pay for the treatment. There is also Bai Yunhua, the successor of the traditional Chinese medicine family. There is no reason for her not to recover.”
Gu Liao wrapped Xie Ru’s hand in his and found it hard to let go of her delicate skin.
“She really recovered. This is impossible. This is impossible.”
Xie Wutong rushed out from the crowd and repeated it over and over again. Her hair was messy and her clothes were loosely worn on her body. She appeared crazy to others.
“Enough, Second Branch. Don’t embarrass yourself here.”
The old master of the Xie family glared at Xie Wutong in disgust, then looked at Gu Liao and said, “I’ve discussed this matter with your grandfather. We respect your decision. If Xie Ru is bullied by you in the future, don’t blame me for taking action.”
Xie Ru looked at Gu Liao blankly. Wasn’t Gu Liao planning to divorce her? How could it be…?
“Grandfather, don’t worry. I will definitely protect Xie Ru. I won’t give Grandfather the chance to take action.”
“That’s good, that’s good.” Tears welled up in the corners of old master Xie’s eyes. He said, “Xie Ru, Grandfather doesn’t have anything to give you. But I still have some shares in the Xie family. In the future, even if I have to eat the company’s dividends, it will be enough to live on.”
“Thank you, Grandfather. My eyes will see a little from time to time. In the future, if I am able to fully recover my eyesight, I will earn money by myself. Grandfather, don’t worry.”
“Be a good child. You’ve suffered a lot.”
Xie Ru saw the sadness in her grandfather’s eyes and felt a little puzzled.
At the Xie family’s birthday banquet, everyone looked at Xie Ru with envy. This was Young Master Gu, the one that heaven had decided to smile upon, making the others feel like a joke.
“Can you really see with your eyes?”
“I was able to see Grandpa just now. It was only for a short while before my vision disappeared again.”
“OK, I’ll speak to Bai Yunhua later.”
Xie Ru nodded. She didn’t even realize that she trusted Gu Liao more than anyone else.
“Tsk, tsk. I can’t watch this anymore. I wonder what kind of headlines will be in the news tomorrow.”
“Youying.”
He Youying shook her arm and teased, “Ugh, I think Young Madam Gu will have to personally deliver the paper to the toilet this time.”
“Forget it. I’m afraid of being pressed into the toilet and beaten.”
“Oh, so you are aware after all? But I saw Xie Wutong’s gaze wasn’t quite right just now. Do you want to go and see what this person is doing? Is she going to give you a big gift?”
“Hah, that might be a huge gift.” Xie Ru cursed in her heart. Making a move at this juncture would only make people more annoyed. Xie Wutong was rushing to give her a burden. As an elder sister, how could she not take action though?
The two of them hid in the shadows. Not far away, Xie Wutong was talking to a man. The thing in his hand looked particularly familiar to Xie Ru.
Wasn’t this the thing that Xie Wutong had used the last time she was at Gu Corporation to find Gu Liao? This was a good thing. But why was she planning to use it on her this time?
Suddenly, Xie Wutong turned around and saw the person’s eyes were wide open..
