Seeing Gu Shiyan’s face even darker than the bottom of a pot, Lu Miao quickly figured out what was going on.
She raised her hand to touch her nose. “Doctor, you might have misunderstood. He didn’t mistreat me.”
The doctor immediately interrupted her, “You don’t need to say anything. I saw it with my own eyes. Look at your clothes, all torn up, and then look at his, anyone with eyes can see the difference. Young lady, abuse can happen once or many times. With someone like him, we must not tolerate it!”
Lu Miao glanced down at her clothes and noticed that she was still wearing the robe. Although it looked a bit damaged, it was her precious item that she had paid five million for.
But she couldn’t explain such things to the doctor.
Helplessly, she could only come up with a random excuse, “It’s true, this is… a fashion with holes.”
“A fashion with holes?” The doctor looked suspicious and scrutinized her from head to toe. “Are you sure?”
Lu Miao nodded firmly, “Yes.”
Although the doctor didn’t believe her, he couldn’t say much more. After the examination, he slightly turned his body to block Gu Shiyan’s line of sight, and discreetly slipped a note into her hand, worriedly whispering in her ear, “If you can’t speak freely now, you can contact me anytime.”
Lu Miao’s lips twitched, and she couldn’t be bothered to explain further.
“Thank you.”
The doctor glared at Gu Shiyan with a warning look before leaving.
Gu Shiyan pressed his temples in silence and turned to look at Lu Miao, asking with concern, “Are you really okay?”
Her injuries were not ordinary, and he wasn’t sure if the hospital could detect them.
“It’s them who have problems,” Lu Miao replied directly.
After last night’s battle, the other side was either dead or seriously injured.
Feeling the extremely abundant primordial force in her body, this body unexpectedly had a breakthrough.
Generally speaking, purple energy was naturally present in the body, and others could only absorb a tiny bit of it, unable to fully absorb it.
She could absorb it probably because of the symbiotic curse.
If the symbiotic curse had previously benefited Gu Shiyan, the situation had now completely reversed. The one benefiting was her.
It was like she had gained an extra mobile blood bag.
Not only could it help her break through during regular cultivation, but in the future, no matter how serious her injuries were, as long as Gu Shiyan was around, he could automatically heal her and replenish her primordial force.
However, when she looked up at the person standing by the bed, the purple energy obediently surrounded him and did not flow to other places on its own.
The only inconvenience was that it seemed she needed to touch Gu Shiyan for it to work.
Lu Miao felt a bit overwhelmed. She couldn’t intentionally go and touch Gu Shiyan every time she needed the benefits, right?
In the Gu family mansion, Grandma Gu didn’t sleep all night. The eerie weather from last night made her uneasy. She remembered that the last time Gu Shiyan nearly had an accident, it was a similar night with inexplicable gusty winds, thunder, and rain.
Moreover, the three-month agreement was due these days, and at such a critical moment, anything could happen.
She paced around the living room, pondering, until she finally decided to call
Shen Qinghe over. “Call Shiyan and ask where he is right now.”
Though Shen Qinghe didn’t understand her intentions, she made the call to Gu Shiyan.
The call was quickly answered, and upon hearing Gu Shiyan’s voice, Grandma Guts tense heart finally eased.
Shen Qinghe asked, “Shiyaan, where are you right now?”
“At the hospital.”
Upon hearing these two words, Grandma Gu’s heart tensed up again.
Shen Qinghe immediately became anxious, “Are you feeling unwell? Why are you at the hospital so early?”
“It’s not me, it’s Lu Miao.”
Hearing this, Shen Qinghe became even more concerned. “What’s wrong with you? You can’t even take care of Miao Miao.”
She scolded Gu Shiyan before getting the specifics of the hospital room, then hung up and informed the kitchen to prepare some nourishing supplements, ready to send them to the hospital later.
With a quick exchange of words with Grandma Gu, Shen Qinghe was about to go to the hospital to see Lu Miao.
“I’ll go with you,” Grandma Gu said, standing up.
Shen Qinghe hesitated and said softly, “Mom, Miao Miao is still ill. Her body is not comfortable right now. If you have something to say, you can wait until she gets better.”
The sudden change in Grandma Gu’s attitude towards Lu Miao was hard for her to believe. She was worried that her presence might not be suitable for Lu Miao at the moment.
“In your eyes, am I that kind of wicked mother-in-law?” Grandma Gu glared at her. “She has done so much for our Gu family, and I’m grateful. How could I say anything else to her? Hurry up and have the kitchen prepare some supplements. We’ll have someone deliver them to the hospital later.”o
Shen Qinghe didn’t expect to hear gratitude towards Lu Miao from Grandma
Gu’s mouth. Although she was still somewhat doubtful, as long as it was for Lu Miao’s benefit, she hurriedly ran to the kitchen and instructed the staff. Then she quickly left with Grandma Gu.
In the living room, Gu Xingyu descended from upstairs, gritting her teeth in anger.
What had that despicable Lu Miao done? Why did even Grandma start liking her and stand on her side!
Despicable woman! Despicable woman!
No, she couldn’t just sit idly by anymore. If things continued like this, she feared she would have no place in this family.
Grandma Gu and Shen Qinghe pushed open the door and entered the hospital room.
As soon as Gu Shiyan saw them, he stood up and instinctively blocked Lu Miao.
Although Grandma Gu was upset that he was guarded against her like this, it was mainly because of her past actions towards Lu Miao. She couldn’t help but glare at Gu Shiyan, not in a good mood. “What did the doctor say?” “It’s nothing serious. She’s just a bit weak and needs a few days’ rest,” Gu Shiyan replied.
Shen Qinghe went forward and carefully checked Lu Miao up and down before confirming that she was indeed fine, which finally put her at ease.
Turning back to scold Gu Shiyan again, she remembered something. “Let me tell you, from now on, you must take good care of Miao Miao for me. Just now in the corridor, I heard doctors and nurses discussing that last night a maniac who abused others showed up at the hospital, not only neglecting the nutrition and weakening the girl day by day, but also dressing her in tattered clothes. He even tried to use ‘fashion with holes’ to justify it.”
Grandma Gu frowned and couldn’t help but interject, “He’s too stingy.”
“And that’s not all. He not only refused to provide enough food but also made the poor girl work non-stop to earn money for him. As a result, she became extremely weak and collapsed,” Shen Qinghe continued.
Lu Miao:…
Gu Shiyan:…
Why did these words sound so familiar?
Listening attentively, the old lady slammed the table and angrily said, “People like him should be reported to the police directly.”
“Yes, the doctor originally wanted to help the girl report it, but she seemed frightened and denied that she was being abused, ” Shen Qinghe added..
