3 The girl who saved him

Wu Meihua was stunned and the light in her eyes shifted to the darker side. This Wu Jinyan changed beyond her imagination, she even started to talk back.

Wu Jinyan continued with a smirk hanging on her lips "In your eyes, I was always a poor countryside orphan whom you can bully to your heart's content. Sorry..I don't want to help you or 'your husband' because I was never a part of your family"

Wu Meihua gritted her teeth. Someone who grew up together with her for more than fifteen years was now claiming herself as an outsider.

Indeed, Wu Jinyan was just adopted into Wu family and had no blood relations with her. But with the way how Wu Jinyan spoke just now, Wu Meihua was irked instantly. 

'What?! If not for grandpa taking pity on her, she would have died rotten long ago. Grandpa gave her the best in everything. And now she's saying she has no relations with Wu family' Wu Meihua never expected she would see this side of her beloved aunt. Someone who lived like a docile kitten under her feet was now acting like a fearless lioness.

Wu Jinyan had always been a puppet in her hands. Now that she was forgetting her position, someone had to stuff some sense into her mind. Wu Meihua lunged forward lifting her hand.

The patient only had few scratches but this woman was overreacting. Worried something bad would happen, the nurse standing at the side came forward to stop Wu Meihua. "Madam...the patient is really not in danger and with the patient's blood type even you can give him blood. Also, we should first make sure the donor has no health issues before taking blood"

The moment she was informed about Mo Shen's accident, Wu Meihua rushed to the hospital. She dragged Wu Jinyan only because she unexpectedly saw her in the same hospital. Now with what the nurse said, she realized that she really made a mistake by asking this useless Wu Jinyan for help.

She raised her brows and sneered "My dear aunt, you always wanted to become a celebrity...and who knows what dirty deeds you did while you were abroad? And for you to easily sign up with a big entertainment company right after your return..Gosh! You must have made a lot of good connections and who knows..."

Wu Meihua played with her finely polished fingernails and continued as if saying an obvious matter. "By now, you might have contracted all kinds of strange diseases warming several beds. Actually what you said is true because Wu family members are not dirty like you..EWW...." She shot a disgusted look at Wu Jinyan before walking away.

Wu Jinyan glared at that woman's back. She felt her blood boiling in anger. It was her bright image and talent that gave her an opportunity to enter a big company easily.

And who exactly was the real dirty person here? To sleep with her aunt's fiance...It could only be that vixen Wu Meihua.

Wu Jinyan wanted to kill that foul mouthed woman but calmed down as she thought it was an utter waste of time to bother about a barking dog. She had to first replenish herself with good food.

The next morning, Wu Jinyan was scheduled to attend the casting auditions for the lead roles in a TV series. 

Since she was a newcomer with no strong background, she had no vehicle or an assistant to accompany her. Moreover, her manager Li Ran was busy dealing with other artists under her. Left with no other choice, Wu Jinyan took a taxi and headed to the auditions alone.

As she was walking into the place where the auditions were held, she noticed a couple of men following her. Before she could assess the situation and escape from their radar, her senses were muffled and she got dragged away.

Gu Zichen furrowed his brows lightly and opened his eyes in a daze. He did not know what exactly happened for him to feel a splitting headache.

The last thing he remembered was having an argument with his parents regarding his single life and him driving his car towards Gu corporation in anger. But now he was back in Gu family house.

Soon a couple of doctors came in to check on his condition and left the room. Watching the doctors leave the room, Gu Zichen was sure he wasn't dreaming.

He rolled his eyes to his sides and saw his mother, Shen Xiuzhen staring at him with tenderness in her eyes. His father, Gu Cheng held his hand tightly on the other side.

He clearly noticed his mother's red eyes and pale complexion indicating that she cried for a long time. His father too had a worried look on his face. 

Gu Zichen did not understand how come his parents were now behaving as though they really care about him when they previously demanded him to get out of their sight.

Was he drugged by the doctors for him to hallucinate that his parents were actually concerned about him? No.. The doctors just checked his vitals and the dressing on his head. He was simply injured and his parents were worried.

That would be normal in other families but not in his family. He knew such a drastic flip in his parents' attitude would happen only when he was almost at death. He concluded that he experienced something terrible which he did not quite remember.

He should first find that person who wanted to kill him. "I should go find...."

Gu Zichen tried to get up from the bed but his mother didn't allow him to move. He met with a major accident and his body was still weak yet he wants to run out.

"No need. Assistant Chen is already looking for the culprit" Gu Cheng glanced at his wife silently begging her to speak something. 

Gu Zichen was stubborn and still wanted to find the person personally. He got out of the bed and took a few steps when Shen Xiuzhen spread her hands, blocking him from walking further.

"Son...when we arrived at the hospital last night, those doctors said the girl who admitted you donated her blood inorder to save you. Thank goodness the girl's blood is of the same type as you. If she didn't help you in time...you would have..." Shen Xiuzhen couldn't bring out those words. Tears trickled down from her eyes again as she held Gu Zichen's hand.

They didn't know how he got into an accident and also received no information about the incident in time. If they knew they would have brought out the fluids specifically collected and stocked by the Gu family.

But even after going through such a disastrous event, Gu Zichen was still breathing only because of that kind hearted girl.

She continued staring straight into her son's eyes "Son...you should rest well and recover at least for the efforts that girl put in saving you"

Shen Xiuzhen knew her son's behaviour. He would sure act recklessly without caring about his health condition if that girl who saved him was not mentioned to stop him. She hoped he would respect that girl for saving him and recover well.

Gu Zichen more or less understood what exactly his mother was trying to say. But that didn't mean he need to waste his time there. He could thank her immediately and of course, he would thank his saviour appropriately. He had seen many women who use cheap tricks to become close to rich men by gaining their parents' favour. He wouldn't let that happen to him.

He waved his hand nonchalantly "I know...but I should at least first know the girl who saved me inorder to thank her. I should go now"
