The assistant had good intentions, but he never expected that Gu Anrou would take her anger out on him.
Gu Anrou pushed the assistant away forcefully. "Aren't you Chuanbai's assistant? Why didn't you protect him well? Why did you let him get hurt!"
The assistant staggered and almost fell to the ground. The commotion here caught Xu Qingqing's attention.
Seeing Gu Anrou shoving Lu Chuanbai's assistant to vent her anger, Xu Qingqing's face darkened. She walked over and grabbed Gu Anrou's offending arm.
"That's enough! This is a hospital, not a place for you to throw a tantrum. If you keep making noise, get out."
"Who do you think you are to tell me what to do?" Gu Anrou shook off Xu Qingqing's hand and turned her anger towards Xu Qingqing.
"You're just a vixen! If it weren't for you, Chuanbai wouldn't have gotten hurt. Why don't you just die!"
"Stop pretending." Xu Qingqing pushed Gu Anrou away directly. "You know better than me who is really responsible for Lu Chuanbai's injury."
After saying that, she let go of Gu Anrou's hand. She even felt dirty touching her for an extra second.
Xu Qingqing's worried gaze fell on the emergency room. Gu Anrou might be a crazy woman, but she wasn't unreasonable.
Lu Chuanbai was being rescued. She had no mood to argue. The image of Lu Chuanbai covered in blood in her arms kept flashing through her mind, and her nose started to feel sour.
Seeing his sister looking so sad, Xu Yan took off his coat and put it on her.
Although he didn't like Lu Chuanbai, he still comforted Xu Qingqing. "Don't worry. He'll definitely come out okay."
The next moment, the light in the emergency room went out. The doctor took off his mask and walked out.
Xu Qingqing rushed over immediately and asked anxiously, "Doctor, how is he?"
"The bullet has been removed. The patient is out of danger, but his injuries are serious. He still needs to be observed."
Hearing that Lu Chuanbai was out of danger, the stone in Xu Qingqing's heart finally dropped. She felt weak all over. If it weren't for Xu Yan holding her, she would have fallen.
The nurse wheeled the patient out on a stretcher. Lu Chuanbai's eyes were closed tightly, and his face was pale.
Seeing the once high - spirited man like this, tears welled up in Xu Qingqing's beautiful eyes.
Plop!
"I'm sorry." The cold tears fell on Lu Chuanbai's hand. Xu Qingqing quickly reached out to wipe them away, but Lu Chuanbai grabbed her hand instead.
Lu Chuanbai's eyelashes fluttered a few times and slowly opened his eyes. Seeing him wake up, Xu Qingqing quickly turned her head to wipe away her tears.
Lu Chuanbai gently pulled Xu Qingqing's hand. His bloodless lips lifted slightly. "Don't cry. I'm okay..."
After saying that, he fell into a coma again.
"Doctor, what's wrong with him!" Seeing him pass out again, Xu Qingqing's heart tightened.
The doctor explained, "He's okay. The effect of the anesthetic hasn't worn off yet. He just needs to rest."
Hearing that Lu Chuanbai needed to rest, Xu Qingqing carefully pulled her hand out and let the nurse wheel him into the ward.
Seeing Lu Chuanbai injured, Gu Anrou resented Xu Qingqing even more.
It was all Xu Qingqing's fault!
If it weren't for Xu Qingqing, Lu Chuanbai wouldn't have gotten hurt.
At this moment, Gu Anrou completely forgot that it was she who had instigated it.
Gu Anrou wanted to follow them in, but Xu Qingqing stopped her rudely. Her beautiful eyes were filled with coldness. "Miss Gu, you'd better go back! Before the truth comes out, you're still a suspect as the mastermind behind this."
"What are you talking nonsense about!" Hearing Xu Qingqing's words, Gu Anrou tried to cover up her guilt and shouted angrily, "It's you, the bad - luck star, who brought misfortune to Chuanbai. It's you who has no right to stay here!"
Xu Qingqing took a step forward and stared sharply at Gu Anrou's face. Gu Anrou was startled by her powerful aura and couldn't help taking a few steps back.
"What do you want to do?"
"Then are you brave enough to swear that you had nothing to do with this? Otherwise, Lu Chuanbai will never like you in his life."
Gu Anrou didn't dare to swear. She pointed at Xu Qingqing for a long time but couldn't come up with a retort. She shook her hand angrily and turned around to run away.
"Xu Qingqing, just you wait!"
Seeing Gu Anrou's guilty look, Xu Qingqing was sure that she was the mastermind.
Xu Qingqing stared coldly at Gu Anrou's back.
Xu Yan walked over. "Do you want me to teach her a lesson?"
"Brother, you don't need to do anything." Xu Qingqing shook her head and refused. "This is my business with her. I'll handle it myself."
Enough was enough. She couldn't bear it any longer.
Gu Anrou had tried to kill her several times. She wasn't a pushover!
Just from this one sentence, Xu Qingqing exuded such a powerful aura that even Xu Yan couldn't ignore it. He sighed in his heart: His sister had really grown up a lot abroad!
Xu Qingqing watched Lu Chuanbai being wheeled into the ward. Then she went to a deserted corner of the corridor and called Tang Li.
Tang Li, who was in a meeting, made a silent gesture to his subordinates. A smile appeared on his originally cold face, and his voice softened a lot.
"Qingqing, what brings you to call me?"
"Help me check into Gu Anrou's family background." Xu Qingqing got straight to the point.
It was Gu Anrou again.
Tang Li frowned, and a glint of cold light flashed in his eyes. "That woman surnamed Gu is causing you trouble again. Do you want me to send someone to deal with her?"
Hearing Tang Li's direct and rough way of dealing with things, Xu Qingqing sighed. "No need. All you need to do is help me find out if Gu Anrou has been in contact with anyone recently."
She had been kidnapped several times by the gang hired by Gu Anrou. She speculated that Gu Anrou was probably involved with criminals.
As long as she could get evidence that the Gu family was in close contact with the gang, it wouldn't be difficult for Xu Qingqing to find a way to seriously damage the Gu family.
"Okay! I'll send someone to check right away."
While Xu Qingqing was thinking of ways, Gu Anrou wasn't idle either. Thinking of Xu Qingqing's attitude, she went home and started smashing things.
"Damn it! Damn it! That damned Xu Qingqing dared to treat me like that. I'm going to kill her!"
Thinking like this, Gu Anrou took out her phone and contacted the mysterious person again. "Do me another favor!"
The mysterious person was dissatisfied with Gu Anrou's attitude of only making requests but not doing anything. "If you want me to help you again, you have to provide me with a stable trading platform this time."
"Of course..." Gu Anrou's tone hardened a bit. "From now on, as long as you have goods to sell, I'll help you auction them all off without going through my father."
Gu Anrou had already made up her mind. Her father definitely wouldn't help her harm the Xu family. Now the only one who could help her was the mysterious person.
Regardless of whether the other person was good or bad, as long as they could help her, they were her friend.
"Okay, I have a batch of goods tomorrow. You help me sell them first. After the transaction is successful, you can do whatever you want."
The mysterious person put forward his conditions.
"These aren't fake goods, are they?" Gu Anrou wasn't stupid and didn't forget to confirm.
"Don't worry. They're all good stuff."
The mysterious person on the other end of the phone let out a strange laugh.
Gu Anrou agreed. "I'll help you prepare an auction."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Anrou went to the study to find her father.
"Dad, didn't you say before that you wanted me to learn how to do things? I was wondering if I could organize tomorrow's auction?"
