Disorder in marriage

Yan Zhi slammed on the brakes and called out to Gu Yunmo several times, but there was no response.

She had no choice but to pick up her phone and search for the nearest hospital.

But the thought of Gu Yunmo dying made her hands tremble as she typed, and she made several mistakes.

"Mrs!"

Jiang Jin saw their car and ran over from across the road. "What happened?"

Yan Zhi, as if grasping at a straw, cried out, "Jiang Jin, Gu Yunmo is injured! Save him! Please save him!"

"Okay, ma'am, calm down, I'll drive."

Yan Zhi handed him the driver's seat and went to the back. She took a towel and used it to cover Gu Yunmo's wound to stop the bleeding.

The blood that flowed out still retained his body temperature, as if his life was slowly slipping away right before Yan Zhi's eyes.

Fortunately, Jiang Jin was reliable and quickly found the hospital. He arrived in just ten minutes, a journey that usually takes twenty minutes.

Yan Zhi contacted the hospital in advance on the way, and as soon as they arrived at the hospital, a doctor from the emergency room was waiting for them at the door.

When Gu Yunmo was lifted onto the hospital bed, Yan Zhi's steps followed him uncontrollably. She looked at Gu Yunmo's tightly closed eyes, which were deathly still.

She'd rather he sit up right now and have a fight with her.

"Madam, do you need to get a checkup?"

Gu Yunmo was wheeled into the operating room, while Yan Zhi sat on a bench in the corridor, covering her face with her hands.

Her hands were covered in blood. Jiang Jin thought it was the first time she had experienced something like this and she was terrified.

Unexpectedly, she raised her head with a clear and rational mind.

"Jiang Jin, that group of people are after Gu Yunmo."

Jiang Jin was not surprised at all. "President Gu has experienced this kind of thing many times before."

"Many times?"

Jiang Jin's expression turned to reminiscence. "President Gu told me not to say more, but I think it's better if you know."

He said, "Madam, do you remember that time Mr. Gu promised to take you to the aquarium, but we didn't end up going?"

"Actually, Mr. Gu was planning to rush over after the meeting, but someone suddenly threatened him with a knife in the parking lot."

"Another time, he made an excuse to go on a business trip, but actually he was injured and was afraid you would worry, so he hid away to recuperate."

This was the first time Yan Zhi had heard of such a thing. She had always known that Gu Yunmo only reported good news and not bad news, was not good at expressing himself, and rarely talked about his hardships.

But I never imagined that Gu Yunmo had silently borne so much.

"At the time, you were pregnant. He was worried that you would be frightened, and he was also worried that your frequent public appearances would cause further repercussions. After all, President Gu has offended too many people."

Yan Zhi asked, "Then who tried to harm him this time?"

Jiang Jin replied, "The police are still investigating; we should have results soon."

However, it's highly unlikely to end well, because these people are often reckless and fearless, and sometimes punishing them with the law is just a weak form of self-consolation.

"Jiang Jin, if anything happens to him again, please tell me," Yan Zhi said. "I'm not that fragile, I can handle it."

"it is good."

Before Gu Yunmo could be rescued, news of his injury somehow reached the Gu family's ears.

Grandma Gu rarely went out, but upon hearing about this, she immediately had her family driver take her to the hospital.

"Snapped!"

When she saw Yan Zhi, she slapped her across the face without saying a word.

Yan Zhi covered her face, and Jiang Jin shielded her behind him.

"Madam, this is not your fault!"

"Isn't it her fault? I asked her to take care of Yunmo, and she took care of him like this!"

Grandma Gu pointed at her across Jiang Jin, "I haven't even held it against you for what happened last time! Our whole family has been tolerating you and giving in to you because you lost your child!"

"How have you repaid us? You refused to stay home and take care of your husband, and you refused to raise Nian Nian! Why is Yun Mo suddenly being chased by someone?"

"It must be trouble you caused outside! Ever since you married into our family, we haven't had a single day of peace!"

Yan Zhi looked at her, somewhat incomprehensible, "Grandma, you can hate me, but what good does it do me to hurt Yunmo?"

"Benefits? Aren't you just waiting for our Yunmo to die so you can take your share of the money and elope with another man?"

Grandma Gu pulled a stack of photos from the driver's pocket and slapped them across Yan Zhi's face.

The photos above are all from this period. There are photos of her and Zhou Zheng at the hospital. After she had her blood drawn, Zhou Zheng sat next to her and comforted her.

And when she and Zhou Zheng parted, Zhou Zheng touched her head.

Although they were all taken secretly, the angles were extremely tricky, making anyone who saw them think that she and Zhou Zheng were having an affair.

The slap on her face still stung, and she knew that no amount of explanation would help.

"Madam, your wife and this man named Zhou Zheng are just friends. These photos were clearly deliberately manipulated."

What's remarkable is that Jiang Jin wasn't misled; instead, he kept speaking up for her.

"Intentionally guiding her?" Old Mrs. Gu glared at her coldly. "What, was someone forcing her to be all lovey-dovey with this Zhou Zheng? Was someone forcing him to touch her head?"

Yan Zhi was so angry she almost laughed.

Jiang Jin's expression remained serious. "Madam and Zhou Zheng have been friends for many years, and President Gu is aware of this matter. Madam, you have keen insight; you can't possibly be unaware of the motives of the person who gave you these photos. Forgive my rudeness, but may I ask who gave you these photos? And who told you that President Gu was in trouble?"

The old lady fell silent.

She stared at Jiang Jin with a sullen expression.

Jiang Jin never dared to look her in the eye.

Suddenly, she raised her hand again. Jiang Jin was prepared, but when he closed his eyes, the slap did not fall.

He looked up and saw that Yan Zhi had grabbed the old lady's wrist and pushed her away forcefully.

"How dare you push me!"

The driver helped the elderly woman up and angrily rebuked her, "How dare you, a junior, push an elder? Don't you have any manners? Didn't your parents teach you anything?!"

Yan Zhi remained expressionless. "I'm sorry, my parents died a long time ago. I'm just ill-mannered. But even if I'm ill-mannered, I would never casually hit or scold my employees or my granddaughter-in-law."

She naturally stood in front of Jiang Jin. "I don't care what you think of me and Zhou Zheng. I can tell you frankly, I've known Zhou Zheng for much longer than I've known Gu Yunmo. I consider him a friend, family! As for you, and your Gu family, you're nothing in my eyes!"

Grandma Gu was so angry she could hardly breathe. Pointing at the operating room door, she said, "Yunmo is still inside being resuscitated, and you dare say such things? Do you have no conscience?!"

"Yes, so you knew Yunmo was being treated inside." Yan Zhi sneered. "Then what are you making a fuss about? Isn't Yunmo's health the most important thing right now?"

Grandma Gu snorted, "When Yunmo comes out, I'm going to tell him everything you said!"

Yan Zhi said nonchalantly, "If you want us to get a divorce, if you want us to live an uneasy life for the rest of our lives, then just say so."
