My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy

Chapter 277: Chapter 277 The Use of Wolf-Repellent Spray _1
Alas, it was still raining outside and the lighting was dim.

I couldn’t make out anything.

And I didn’t know how things were going.

Gu Yuanzhou extended his arm and shut the window.

“Sleep!”

“Gu Yuanzhou, aren’t you going to check on Qi Ming? His two children…”

Gu Yuanzhou placed his finger on my lips,

“Sleep! Don’t interfere with others’ business!”

I took a deep breath, stopped speaking, and retreated to the bed.

Just then, someone on the outside began to knock hurriedly at the door.

Gu Yuanzhou got up to answer it.

It was Ayu standing at the door, his face was filled with anxiety,

“Brother Zhou, something terrible has happened, someone rolled off the cliff!”

“Are you sure?”

“It’s such bad luck, there happened to be police patrolling today. They say they found an injured person at the foot of the cliff…”

“Let’s go, I need to see for myself!”

Hearing this conversation, my heart sank.

Could it be Liu Yu who fell?

What about the two children?

Gu Yuanzhou left with Ayu to go downhill, and I, with a black umbrella in my hand, followed them anxiously.

Gu Yuanzhou asked Ayu,

“Did you call Qi Ming?”

Right then, the mistress stepped forward and hastily explained,

“I couldn’t get through, maybe the signal is poor in the mountains. He can’t receive the call.”

The mistress seemed very concerned about the development of the situation, so much so that she didn’t care about her pregnant belly and accompanied us downhill.

She walked in great anxiety, it seemed as though she wanted to be the first one to reach the scene.

The place where the fall happened wasn’t at the foot of the mountain, but halfway up…

By the time we arrived.

The first thing I saw were two young girls, lying in Liu Yu’s arms like frightened rabbits.

Liu Yu was squatting on the ground, holding the two children tightly in her arms, repeatedly comforting them,

“It’s alright, nothing happened, baby, we are safe now!”

She would repeat that over and over.

Despite Liu Yu looking disheveled at that moment, I, nevertheless, breathed a sigh of relief.

If Liu Yu and her daughter are unharmed, then who fell off?

A few police officers were huddled together in the distance, surrounding a person, while Gu Yuanzhou and Ayu stood by the side.

Gu Yuanzhou didn’t move, as Ayu worked his way around and knelt down to attempt a rescue.

The lighting at the time wasn’t great, we had to rely on the light from the car to see a few meters ahead.

Adding to that, the crowd was blocking the view, I had to get closer to see clearly.

A figure was hanging from the cliff, lying motionless, not knowing if he was alive or dead. Judging from his clothes, it seemed to be Qi Ming…

Judging from the twisted posture of his limbs, it looked like he fell hard.

“He seems to have fainted, I guess both his legs are useless now?”

“There seems to be breathing…but don’t move him around, wait for the ambulance!”

The crowd was chattering among themselves.

Seeing this, I was filled with confusion.

A moment later, one of the police officers walked over to Liu Yu and handed her a towel,

“We heard you were together, can you tell me about your relationship with the victim? I need to take a statement.”

Liu Yu said tearfully,

“He’s my husband! He was originally here on vacation with me and our two children. When the kids accidentally dropped their toy and it got stuck on the cliff, he tried to retrieve it. Unfortunately, he lost his footing and fell down the cliff…”

Just as Liu Yu started to speak, a tragic sob broke through the crowd.

“Ah!”

I cast a glance over, recognizing the mistresses’ voice.

Upon seeing Qi Ming’s condition, she presumably thought he was dead, and was now in shock.

She had fainted on the spot, and after being revived, she started sobbing on her knees.

“Ah…Aming, your death is so tragic! What am I to do without you? You can’t die, Aming!”

I glanced at Liu Yu.

She was calm, and when she looked at Qi Ming, her gaze was as cold as ice.

I walked behind her, holding an umbrella above her to shield her from the rain.

Then I took out a tissue and helped her wipe off the raindrops on her face.

Her right hand, which had been cut, was shaking uncontrollably as she took the tissue.

Up close, I could even feel her shoulders trembling.

She then murmured in my ear in a barely audible voice,

“This beast…struck me in front of the children on the edge of the cliff just now. Luckily, you warned me yesterday and I had the wolf-repellent spray with me. I sprayed it in his eyes…he went wild, threatened to kill us. I don’t know where I got the strength, but I pushed him hard, and he fell off the cliff.”

She spoke in a whisper as if it required all her strength.

This may have been her first act of defiance since their marriage.

But it was also her most successful one.

To comfort her, I whispered into her ear,

“You are a remarkable mother, you saved both your daughters. If it weren’t for you, they might have…”

Tears shimmered in Liu Yu’s eyes, and she nodded slightly.

About half an hour later, the ambulance finally arrived at the scene.

Qi Ming was lifted onto a stretcher and loaded into the ambulance.

As the police were about to leave, the mistress suddenly grabbed Liu Yu’s arm, saying to the police,

“Officer, this woman killed Qi Ming, she is responsible for his death… I can prove to you that their marriage was unhappy. This woman has always wanted to kill her husband and monopolize his assets.”

Her plan had not worked out, she was resentful, and seeing that Liu Yu was kind and honest, wanted to take advantage of her.

To my surprise, Liu Yu didn’t back down, instead she told the police,

“This woman is my husband’s mistress. She was the one who invited my husband here tonight. She is the majorly responsible for my husband’s accident, I will be seeking compensation from her.”

However, the police weren’t fooled. How could they trust a morally corrupt mistress, and they directly replied,

“You will need to come with us to the police station to assist with the investigation!”

After the mistress was taken away by the police.

Ayu brought some people over and blocked Liu Yu,

“What exactly happened? Qi Ming just seemed fine, how did he fall off the cliff?”

Liu Yu stood tall, calmly responding to Ayu,

“I don’t know whether Qi Ming is dead or alive now, and you’re asking too many questions. I told the police everything, if you want to know, go ask them.”

“How dare you talk like that? You think I can’t touch you just because you’re Mrs. Qi, believe it or not, I…”

Ayu seemed to want to act forcefully, but I stepped in to stop him.

“Don’t try to bully a widow and orphans! If you have the guts, go find a man to fight with you”.

Ayu was not convinced,

“Enough, you stay out of it, you’re not that innocent either. In any case, Qi Ming’s condition is unclear now, this woman can’t be allowed to leave.”

I can roughly guess why, because Qi Ming was going to purchase a stake in the Huaxin Group with the funds he had. Now it seemed that Qi Ming can’t keep that promise.

They didn’t want the money to be endowed into the group, so they want to keep Liu Yu, the legal successor, here so that she might sign in the future.

“Are you insane? Her husband’s in the hospital now, she needs to go there, why do you want to keep her?”

Ayu replied, “My friends are already there. She’s not needed.”

Ayu was unreasonable. I tried to reason with him, but he would not back down.

So I turned to Gu Yuanzhou…

“You all have lost all sense of humanity. Look at these two kids, they’re soaked to the bone! They just lost their father, but you won’t even let them go home. Are you even human?”

Gu Yuanzhou glanced at the two little girls before finally saying something to Ayu.
