Chapter 182 Meeting Hua Jingya Again

Mu Yunfan came from a famous family, and had always been a kind, gentle pampered son of a wealthy family. However, now he had developed a cold and aloof appearance, holding everything close to his own heart, not wanting to share it at all.

The reason was because Mu Yunfan was kidnapped by his family enemies when he was just five years old, and he had also wandered alone for a period of time. During this time, he came to understand the cruel world, seeing the bullies and arrogant faces of the shameless people that he came across.

The first time he had seen Gu Xiqiao, it was when she had rejected the suggestion of his butler for a ride when he was stranded at the side of the road. The second he saw her, she was bullying a Japanese girl...

Each meeting with her was unpleasant, evoking the darker emotions within his own heart. These thoughts kept flooding his rational mind, and that was also why he became angry when he heard Meng Yufan’s words, rushing forward angrily without much thought.

One was a girl that left bad impressions on him every time they had a chance meeting, while the other was a childhood friend of his, who do you think he would believe?

He stared at the beautiful face, her clear eyes were bright and reflecting the light, not a trace of timidness in them.

Hearing Mu Yunfan’s words, Meng Yufan suddenly changed as though she had found the strongest support pillar she could. "It’s you who hurt my dad!" He had been slandered by her, and now he was dismissed, even being admitted to the hospital because of his high blood pressure from all the above. "Pay me back a father!"

A lie would eventually become true if repeated a hundred times, and Meng Yufan’s eyes were bloodshot as she said, raising her hands, rushing toward Gu Xiqiao.

Mu Yunfan was stunned at that, not expecting her to actually raise her hands against the other even though she had shouted it. Although Meng Yufan was an arrogant girl, she had never done this sort of thing in such a public area.

Bop!

There were some onlookers at the entrance of the hospital, and most of them thought that it was the beautiful girl that had been knocked down. Due to the flashing lights, they could only see clearly after a while, and realized that it was that girl that started the fight that had fallen down instead.

"You dare to hit me?!" Meng Yufan couldn’t believe it.

"Why not?" Gu Xiqiao stood, a condescending look on her face as she looked toward Meng Yufan, contempt clear in her eyes. "The fight is done, consider our feud over. I didn’t have any designs for you at first, but you’re the one who insists on rushing headlong into me."

"As for me taking your chance? Don’t place such a burden on my shoulders." Gu Xiqiao took out her phone, fiddling with it for a while, before a voice recording played out. "You should know the best, who’s the one who did it, hm?"

The audio was played on loudspeaker, and it was a conversation between two people, being Meng Yufan and her butler. Mu Yunfan looked toward Meng Yufan who was still on the ground, disbelief clear in his eyes. Of course he recognized the voices, it was definitely Meng Yufan.

But Gu Xiqiao was not done yet. Looking down at Meng Yufan on the ground, she continued, "How many other despicable things have you done just because you are Meng Yu’s daughter? Ignoring what you did to me, weren’t you the one who stole Shen Nianzhi’s opportunity? Didn’t you also unite the students to drive out a newcomer from the world of oil painting? ... And lastly, you said that I harmed your father? It’s because all of these have been exposed that your father has been driven up the wall by you! Meng Yufan, with gods above us as witnesses, do you dare to swear to the heavens that any of the things I’ve just said are wrong?"

Her words flowed like a beautiful song as she stood with her back straight, an elegant and graceful pose as she spoke. Her clear, sparkling eyes seemed to be able to see through all of the ugliness in the world.

Mu Yunfan suddenly felt like a scoundrel, and he lowered his head, not daring to look into those pure eyes.

Thinking back to the words that he had just spit out at her, a burst of embarrassment crept into his heart. Being glanced at with her all-seeing eyes, he felt his face flush.

In the beginning, Meng Yufan had got up, fully intending to claw that b*tch’s face, but she had to take a step back at every word Gu Xiqiao had hurled at her. When Gu Xiqiao had finally finished her piece, Meng Yufan had collapsed to the ground, as if the strings holding her up had been cut. She had no strength in her limbs anymore, and those previously vicious eyes were now filled with panic instead.

There were a lot of people who had gathered around, and some of them held some sympathy in their eyes for Meng Yufan in the beginning. However, after listening to all of Gu Xiqiao’s words, their eyes gradually grew colder, and disbelief as well as scorn filled their eyes, as they continued to talk amongst themselves.

Boom!

A thunderstorm started immediately after that without warning, and just as the downpour started, an umbrella was stretched over her head just in the nick of time. Gu Xiqiao looked up to find Jiang Shuxuan beside her, not noticing when he had arrived at all.

She glanced toward Meng Yufan one last time, her voice indifferent as she spoke, "Meng Yufan, the heavens are always watching what humans are doing. I hope you remember that and turn over a new leaf."

The rain had come suddenly, but Mu Yunfan didn’t bother searching for cover. He walked slowly toward Meng Yufan, a dull tone from his mouth, "Was everything she said the truth?"

"Brother Mu, Brother Mu, you have to believe me..." Meng Yufan reached out to tug the corner of Mu Yunfan’s shirt, a ray of hope shining in her eyes. She didn’t have anything now, only her relationship with Mu Yunfan and Sima Jun. Panic gripped her heart painfully. If even Mu Yunfan didn’t care for her, then she really would have no chance to do anything anymore.

Mu Yunfan looked into her eyes, not needing a verbal answer from her at all. Wasn’t the answer already in his heart?

Every word that person had said still echoed in his mind over and over, snapping him out of his daze and into a feeling of shame and guilt.

He turned to the other direction, seeing the thin figure who was being held under an umbrella. A child that seemed to be in a hurry ran into her then, the soup in the thermos in the child’s hands spilling on her. However, Gu Xiqiao didn’t get angry, but instead spoke some kind words toward the child.

The expression on her face was gentle, and the wrinkles from her furrowed eyebrows during her confrontation just a while ago were no longer present. She looked completely different from the aggressive impression she presented just now, and even the mist from the cold of the rain did nothing to conceal her beauty.

Mu Yunfan looked at the scene for a while more, a smile twitching at the corner of his mouth. He didn’t even know if it was due to self-deprecating or a bitter smile. He slowly pried Meng Yufan’s fingers from his clothes, and then he turned to leave.

Meng Yufan’s eyes widened, the blood draining from her face as she watched Mu Yunfan walk out of sight.

***

"Brother Jiang, where did you get the umbrella?" Gu Xiqiao asked as she took off the soup-stained coat. She didn’t let her mood be dampened by those two useless people, she was alive and having fun in life this time, after all.

As they reached the hospital building, Jiang Shuxuan kept away the umbrella. "When I came out, I expected it to rain, so I brought it along."

Gu Xiqiao: Liar! Your hands were clearly empty when we left this morning!

Jiang Shuxuan pretended that he didn’t see the questioning gaze that she sent his way, taking off his own coat to put on her instead.

There was still some warmth in the coat when she put it on, and Gu Xiqiao smiled as she curled her hands around the soft material. The both of them were well aware of their feelings already anyway, it was just not said out loud. With that, the two of them continued walking toward the elevator.

Yao Jiamu’s ward was on the twenty-seventh floor. It was a single room, and there was a group of people already gathered inside.

"Xiao Mutou, I heard that you were injured, and my first reaction was happiness. Do you think I’m abnormal?" Wu Hongwen glanced at Yao Jiamu, confirming that the other was well, he then sat down at the side to peel an apple, and his tone was slightly gloating.

It was hard to blame him, because Yao Jiamu had always been beating him up, it was rare to see him in this frustrated state for a change. Was it possible to not be happy?

Not mentioning Wu Hongwen, even Xiao Yun had a look of excitement on her face. Although she was a little anxious when she was rushing over, seeing that Yao Jiamu was fine, she had calmed down.

Yao Jiamu glanced at him and said, "I feel like strangling you."

Thoughtless so-called friends!!

"It’s actually quite a serious injury, if it wasn’t Young Master Yao. If it was anyone else, the person would probably be dead." A soft voice came from somewhere beside him.

"Miss Hua, it’s okay. Little Mu has a stronger than average body, even if another five or ten knives came at him, he would still be fine. See, he still has the energy to strangle me." Seeing that it was Hua Jingya, Wu Hongwen’s tone was slightly more respectful. He had heard from Yao Jiamu’s underlings that this Miss Hua is a divine doctor, and because of Gu Xiqiao, he was more respectful of the profession of doctor. "Speaking of which, Xiao Mutou, you’re so capable now, Being able to get out of such a predicament, the title of ’Young Master’ is really powerful, huh?"

Hua Jingya pursed her lips and smiled. Because she had saved a member of the Bai gang, she was now quite well known in the streets. If this continued on, she would be able to achieve her goals soon.

She was the admiration of countless people in the Bai gang, and those fierce underworld members who saw her also greeted her with a respectful ’Miss Hua’ whenever she saw them.

Being on friendly terms with a divine doctor who might save your life one day, who would dare to cause trouble with her?

Because of this, Hua Jingya was an extremely sought after figure, and was the center of attention whenever she went.

Being regarded as a guest of honor by Boss Bai, her status among the Bai gang was no less than a division leader.

"Young Master Yao, Miss Gu has arrived." Ah Gen said as he knocked on the door, with an excited expression on his face.

"Let her in!" Yao Jiamu’s eyes also brightened, sitting up immediately.

Hua Jingya narrowed her eyes at their reaction, feeling a little puzzled. She knew Ah Gen, Boss Bai’s right hand, and he was usually an unsmiling face. Except for being a little respectful toward Yao Jiamu, there was no other person that he placed importance in, and that included herself.

Her gaze swept across the room, and it seemed that everyone else was also excited and anticipating this ’Miss Gu’s’ arrival.

The door was already wide open, and she seemed to hear Ah Gen calling out ’Miss Gu’. She raised her head, and was immediately met with a stunning face.

The girl who walked in was wearing a black coat, and it made her already pale face stand out more like snow. Her eyebrows were a delicate arch, and her beauty was indescribably ethereal. The features of the man next to her seemed to be carved with a knife, and he wore a white shirt, but even such ordinary clothing was unable to hide the aura and impression of him being on another level than normal people.

How familiar these two people were! Hua Jingya remembered the pain of being held by her throat by Wang Jun. If it wasn’t for her own superior medical skills, she would have been useless already.

The two of them didn’t look at her, walking toward the bed instead.

"You really get more childish the longer you live." Gu Xiqiao said as she looked toward Yao Jiamu lying on the bed, her tone full of disapproval.

Yao Jiamu scratched the back of his head, his face flushed. The usually solemn and cold man suddenly turned into a boy-next-door, talking more meekly, "It’s not that, I just didn’t express it better, and those people were just too shameless..."

Wu Hongwen shoved a cut piece of apple into Yao Jiamu’s mouth, not being able to bear such a look on his face anymore. "Just admit that you’re weak, and even quibbling won’t change this fact!"

He offered the remaining apples toward Gu Xiqiao and Jiang Shuxuan. "Er Qiao, Boss Jiang, do you want some apples?"

Gu Xiqiao pushed the plate back to him. "No way, we don’t even know if you washed your hands after you went to the toilet."

"Cough cough!" Yao Jiamu’s face turned red as he tried to swallow the apple and choke it out at the same time.

"Young Master Yao’s wounds will be aggravated and reopen if this goes on. It’s just been bandaged." Hua Jingya suddenly said.

The room fell into an awkward silence at this, and Wu Hongwen stood suddenly, smiling brightly as he walked toward her. "Miss Hua, I’m going to change Xiao Mutou’s dressing now. We’re not that close so this might be a little uncomfortable, so could you wait outside for a while?"

Ever since Gu Xiqiao had entered the room, all the gazes that were initially focused on her were now on the other girl instead, and this already made Hua Jingya feel a stab of dejection in her heart. Now hearing Wu Hongwen say what clearly was nonsense, she clenched her fist tightly, but left the room with her head held high.

Just as the door was about to close, she turned her head to look in, just to meet Gu Xiqiao’s dark and deep eyes. She shivered at that, before closing the door resolutely.

She didn’t come out of her daze until they broke eye contact.

Ah Gen was standing outside, not looking at her. Hua Jingya suddenly opened her mouth to ask, "Aren’t you going to monitor those people inside? I’m afraid of what will happen if Young Master Yao gets hurt a second time."

Yao Jiamu had gotten injured this time for Boss Bai’s sake, and Hua Jingya knew. She was also well aware how loyal Ah Gen was toward Boss Bai and Yao Jiamu, so she had thought that he would go in immediately once he heard her words, but Ah Gen merely glanced at her, replying in a deadpanned voice, "Miss Gu is inside."

In other words, he was implying that since Miss Gu was inside, he could rest assured that nothing of the like would happen.

Hua Jingya gave him a stiff smile at his answer, turning to leave after. Her nails dug into her palm painfully. Why was this person appearing everywhere?!

What the hell was she actually capable of?
