Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After Assistant Lin sent his mother home to rest last night, he barely managed to sleep for a few hours. After that, he couldn’t fall asleep, so he got up, washed up briefly, and drove to the hospital.
On the way, he passed by a breakfast shop, so he got out of the car, bought two portions, and brought them back to the car before continuing to drive to the hospital.
When he reached the entrance of Mr. Gu’s ward, he saw that there was no one there. Just as he was about to take out his phone to call Gu Yu and ask him where he and the Young Mistress were, he saw Gu Yu walking back.
He quickly went up to him. “Mr. Gu, I’ve already rested enough. Here are two servings of breakfast for you and the Young Mistress. Have some and go rest. I’ll watch over Mr. Gu. ”
As he spoke, he realized that Xu Weilai was nowhere to be seen. Confused, he asked, “President Gu, where’s the Young Mistress?”
Gu Yu acted as if he didn’t see him or hear him. He walked past him towards the window of the ward. He stood there and stared at the old man lying inside.
Upon seeing this, Assistant Lin also looked inside sadly and said, “Mr. Gu, don’t be too sad. The old man is strong. He’ll definitely be able to get through this. He won’t act like… ”
He suddenly realized what he had said and was so scared that he immediately shut up. He even raised his hand and slapped himself on the mouth a few times. He quickly apologized, “Mr. Gu, I said something wrong. Just pretend you didn’t hear me!”
Gu Yu’s gaze suddenly turned from the old man to assistant Lin. He muttered, “It wasn’t an accident.”
Assistant Lin didn’t hear clearly for a moment. “What?”
Gu Yu clenched his hands into fists and pressed them against the glass window. His voice was filled with suppressed anguish. “Whether it was in the past or this time, it’s not an accident.”
In the past… this Time..
Assistant Lin was stunned for half a minute before he finally reacted to Gu Yu’s sudden words. His expression quickly turned serious, and there was a hint of disbelief in his voice as he spoke, “Mr. Gu, that shouldn’t be. Ever since your parents passed away, only people who could be trusted appeared around Grandpa Gu. Even the servants in the old residence were strictly selected. How could anyone suspicious get through?”
“It’s all-pervasive.” His eyes had a murderous expression. “It was a trap that had been set up since my parents’ incident. Naturally, it’s impossible to guard against.”
All these years, he had put all his effort into guarding against it, so there hadn’t been any accidents all these years.
But that didn’t mean that those shady people had given up. They had always been waiting for an opportunity to make a move. In the past, it was his parents, but now it was Grandpa Gu, and they were slowly eliminating the members of the Gu family.
Upon hearing Gu Yu’s words, Assistant Lin thought about it fearfully.
Yes, the death of Gu Yu’s parents wasn’t an accident, but at that time, Grandpa Gu had fallen, and Gu Yu was too young. Even if he wanted to investigate, he was powerless. It wasn’t until Gu Yu gradually grew up that he began to investigate that year’s incident, but it had been too long ago, and the clues were unclear, so there had been no progress.
Gu Yu could sense that their goal wasn’t just this. He had been by the old man’s side and was long prepared, but… in the end, that person still succeeded.
Moreover, since he had already made his move, he would make a comeback like he did back then.
Grandpa Gu had fallen and was now unconscious. It was probably only the first step. Next… it would likely stir up another storm.
Gu Yu was silent for a long time. The emotions in his eyes gradually faded until his true thoughts were unfathomable. He ordered, “Get someone to guard grandfather’s ward. No one is allowed to come near.”
