The moment Gu Zhao finished his words, Jiang Yao could no longer control her trembling legs and instantly knelt on the ground.

His knee hit the hard, muddy stone hard, causing him to feel a pain similar to being shattered.

Jiang Yao struggled to stand up and tried to catch up with Gu Zhao, who had heartlessly left. However, every time, she would fall back to the ground.

Gu Zhao's figure had already disappeared without a trace.

Jiang Yao lay on the ground in despair, crying sorrowfully. She was in a sorry state, without the slightest trace of her usual haughty and haughty manner that enhanced her elegance.

When the phone suddenly rang, Jiang Yao realized that the rain had stopped some time ago. Even the sky had turned dark.

"Hello, Uncle Wang." She tried to control her emotions so that her voice sounded the same as usual.

"Eldest Miss, Master, Master said to ask you to come back immediately. It's about Young Master. "

Jiang Yao immediately understood the meaning behind the words of the old housekeeper, who had watched her grow up, as he said them in a reserved manner.

"Alright, I'll be right there."

After getting off the taxi, Jiang Yao stood at the Jiang Family entrance and carelessly combed her messy hair. But no matter how hard she tried, her haggard, pale complexion and wounds all over her body couldn't be covered.

When Chen Mei saw her, she was stunned for a moment. Then her eyes reddened. Why did his little face become so small? "

Jiang Yao's heart ached when she saw her mother's pained expression. She forced a comforting smile and said, "Mom, it's alright. The rain is too heavy, I accidentally fell on it!"

"Nonsense!" Just as she finished speaking, she was sternly cut off by the ashen-faced Jiang Zhonghai, "Tell Dad, did Gu Zhao do it!?" Inverse him, he actually dares to attack our Jiang Family's only precious daughter, before we can embrace her! "

Jiang Zhonghai said aggressively and was about to leave, but Jiang Yao quickly stepped forward to stop him.

"You useless fellow!" Jiang Zhonghai sat back down on the sofa in disappointment. He pulled out a magazine and slammed it onto the table. "You're still protecting him even though he's like this!"

Jiang Yao lowered her gaze and her heart skipped a beat.

On the big cover was a photo of Gu Zhao, the puppy who was secretly taking pictures, and a young model who was having a late night tryst.

She was silent for two seconds, then ignored the pain in her heart like a needle being pricked and said lightly, "It's all a play, it's not as serious as you think."

Jiang Zhonghai snorted coldly, "Don't think I don't know if he's still thinking about that woman!"

Jiang Yao's face instantly turned even paler. Her eyes widened in fear as she stammered, "Dad!"

"Don't worry. Dad can take care of one, and he can also help you take care of the rest. I, Jiang Zhonghai's daughter, will only be fawned over by others!"

With that, he angrily walked up the stairs with his hands behind his back. No matter how much Jiang Yao yelled, he didn't turn around.

Jiang Yao buried her head in her mother's embrace and cried out her grievances.

When she finally got up to say goodbye, Chen Mei was very unhappy. "It's already so late, don't go."

"No need." Jiang Yao smiled weakly, "That's my home. I have to go back and wait for Zhao."

When Uncle Wang sent her off, he looked at her soulless appearance and sighed deeply.

"Miss, what is the point of this? Why didn't you explain the situation to Young Master and make him misunderstand you? Back then, when Old Master sent people to tie up Miss Xu, he had never thought of harming her. Everything was just an accident. No one would have thought that the warehouse would be on fire. "

Jiang Yao shook her head, interrupting Uncle Wang's words, "Uncle Wang, I understand your good intentions, but don't bring up this matter ever again, especially in front of Zhao."

It was useless, Gu Zhao wouldn't listen.

Even if her father kidnapped Xu Xiao that year without her knowing, it was all because of her. In order to force Xu Xiao away so that Gu Zhao could marry her in peace.

I will not kill Born, but Born will die because of me.

For someone as stubborn as Gu Zhao, it was enough to vent all of his anger on her, so there was no need to implicate her father.

Uncle Wang helplessly sighed, and in the end, no longer said anything.

When Jiang Yao returned to her villa late at night, she suddenly felt a fever.

She was already weak, and with the rain, it had been a terrible attack.

Jiang Yao struggled to pick up the phone and dialed Gu Zhao's number. Unsurprisingly, she was hung up again and again as usual.

Jiang Yao's cellphone fell powerlessly from her hand to the ground. She found that every breath she took caused her chest and lungs to burn with an excruciating pain.

She looked at the empty and lifeless bedroom. Suddenly, she felt a little sad. Even if she died, no one would discover her.

If she was really dead, would Gu Zhao miss her even a little?

After falling asleep for who knows how long, the lights in the bedroom were switched on without warning.

Jiang Yao tried to raise her hand to block the blinding light, but there was no strength left in her.

She could only turn her head and get used to it for a while before she saw Gu Zhao, who was standing beside the bed with a solemn expression.

"Zhao, you … you're back …"

Jiang Yao's nose turned sour, like a drowning person who had finally found the last straw.

Gu Zhao had a calm expression and a faint sense of anger.

"Jiang Yao, stop pretending." The moment Gu Zhao opened his mouth, Jiang Yao's last remaining fantasy was completely shattered.

"Isn't that why you complained to your father?"

He had just come back from the Gu household and had been scolded by Gu Wei. Jiang Zhong Hai had personally called him and accused him of being too dissolute.

"I never wanted to marry that woman from the beginning! If not for her, Xiaoxiao would not have died. " Rarely had he lost his temper in front of Gu Wei.

However, he was slapped by Gu Wei without the slightest hesitation.

"Son of a bitch!" "He's still thinking about that woman even now."

Gu Wei was clearly enraged by his words as well, "If you don't want to marry her, then take out power and influence that can be used against Jiang Family!"

Ye Zichen's words woke the man from his dreams.

Jiang Yao watched Gu Zhao pick up a small suitcase and walk out. She didn't even bother to put on her shoes before she ran out of the bed. As soon as she moved, she felt dizzy and fell to the ground unprepared.

She was lying on the ground, clutching at his trousers, looking up at him like a beggar begging for alms.

"Zhao, where are you going?"

Gu Zhao lowered his eyes and said coldly, "What does it have to do with you?"

"Zhao, I'm sick, I'm really sick. Can you take me to the hospital?" "Her cheeks were flushed red, and every word she spoke was like a blade slicing across her throat. Her voice was just as hoarse and unpleasant to hear." "Zhao, I'm in pain. It hurts like I'm going to die."

Gu Zhao suddenly smiled after seeing that she was silent for two seconds.

"Then die!"
