Mr Gu’s First Doting Marriage

Chapter 390: Chapter 391: Harm Her

The next day.

Xia Yangyang woke up early to find Gu Qichen was not by her side.

Yesterday, he had clearly slept here.

The nurse came in to change Yangyang’s dressing and take her temperature.

Expressing envy, she told Yangyang that Mr. Gu had bought breakfast for her.

After the nurse had left.

Shen Manbing called, saying she had taken a leave for her.

The director had allowed her to rest for a week.

Xia Yangyang felt guilty, worrying that she might hold up the production team’s progress.

But with her current state, she truly had no way of performing.

After sitting blankly for a while, Xia Yangyang, feeling utterly bored, turned on the TV.

She randomly switched channels.

Surprisingly, on the legal news channel, she saw that punk from yesterday.

It was reported that the punk and a group of people had surrendered.

They admitted to injuring someone.

When they turned themselves in, each of them had a long knife wound on their arm.

Yangyang’s injury was on her left hand, and so were those of the punks.

Ever since yesterday night, Yangyang had a strange feeling in her heart.

The punks from yesterday had appeared menacing at first.

Why did they become like that later on?

Startled and weak from yesterday’s events, Yangyang didn’t think much of it.

But thinking of it now, there seemed to be many doubts.

When did those people begin to change? It seemed to be after that knife had cut down.

Then, Yangyang was in a daze, but she vaguely seemed to hear them talking about Bodhi beads.

Could it be related to those beads?

There was also one point that baffled Yangyang.

When the yellow-haired punk was hitting himself, he kept calling her Miss Xia.

In other words, the punk knew her name.

However, she didn’t know him at all.

Xia Yangyang faintly remembered the punk mentioning she was an actress.

What did that imply?

Just the thought of it made Xia Yangyang’s heart tremble slightly.

She did not dare to probe any further.

At this moment, Gu Qichen returned.

Yangyang turned her head: “Where have you been?”

“I went to get some porridge for you. You were sleeping soundly this morning, and I didn’t have the heart to wake you up.”

Xia Yangyang had already gotten out of bed.

Gu Qichen took out the porridge: “I bought this from the hospital cafeteria. Make do with it for now. Once you’re discharged, you can come live with me at Lichen. I’ll cook for you then.”

Xia Yangyang laughed: “I’m not that seriously injured. It’s a superficial wound.

I should be able to get discharged by noon.”

Gu Qichen’s face darkened slightly: “This matter isn’t as simple as you think. I will investigate thoroughly. Whoever is trying to harm you behind your back, I can’t let them off.”

This made Xia Yangyang think of something: “Ah Chen, I just saw on TV that those punks have surrendered. Did you have something to do with that?”

Gu Qichen shook his head: “I know about that. They surrendered on their own, and each of them is injured. The police are currently investigating. The leader of the punks mentioned that they had someone behind them.”

Xia Yangyang felt an overwhelming sinking feeling: “Who was it?”

Who wanted to harm her to such an extent?

Xia Yangyang could not imagine what her fate would have been had there not been a turn of events last night.

Gu Qichen’s face hardened: “They don’t know who specifically. They only mentioned it was a girl, looking like she was in her early twenties. That person gave them fifty thousand yuan, their objective was… to assault you, take photos, and they would receive another hundred thousand upon completion.”

As he spoke, Gu Qichen’s fingers had turned white from gripping so hard.

He couldn’t believe someone could stoop so low to frame Yangyang.

The thought of it filled him with murderous intent.

Xia Yangyang felt a chill creep up, slowly spreading throughout her body..
