C22 Where Did Pity Come from

Gu Anran did not know where she had been taken to.

In a daze, she seemed to be carried on a bed. After that, someone was treating her wounds.

"Other than her forehead being broken, there are no other injuries on her body. The red spots on her body are due to the mistake of using the Crimson Technique. I'll prescribe some medicine and it will disappear very soon."

"As for the injury on her forehead, fortunately, the wound is not big. The best medicine will not leave a scar."

There seemed to be someone else talking in the room. There was more than one voice.

"Young Master, I have already investigated. It is said that Gu Weizi gave food to the future Young Madame this morning and after that Young Madame grew red spots."

"Later, we found out that Gu Minghao's wife Ye Shuixin wanted to harm the future Young Madame. Gu Minghao sent Ye Shuixin away in a fit of anger."

"When Second Young Master heard about this, he caught the future Young Madame and wanted to help Gu Weizi vent her anger. After that, it was what we saw."

Gu Anran could recognize Lee Ye's voice. As for the other voice, it was Young Master Mu's private doctor, Ye Han.

In this room, although there was a person who had never spoken before, his presence was too strong to be ignored.

Later on, the surroundings became quiet. It was as if everyone had left, but that presence had always been there.

There seemed to be a cold yet scrutinizing gaze that had been staring at her all this time, right beside her.

However, Gu Anran's eyelids were too heavy. She tried several times but still could not open her eyes.

In the end, she did not know whether it was because she was too tired or because the medicinal effect was working, but her consciousness completely dissipated.

In a daze, there seemed to be a few more people in the room. Someone was respectfully calling out: " old madame."

old madame?

"Grandma!" Gu Anran suddenly opened her eyes and sat up.

Grandma! It was really Grandma! Grandma is still alive, Grandma is not dead!

"What's wrong with this girl? Your injuries are not healed yet, quickly lie down!" Madame Mu was shocked by her.

The two maids immediately came over and wanted to help Gu Anran lie back down.

Gu Anran pulled away their hands and moved to the bed. She grabbed Madame Mu's shriveled hand and her eyes turned red.

Being beaten and humiliated, she did not shed a single tear. But now, when she saw old madame, bean-sized tears fell.

"Grandma..." Her voice was hoarse and she did not say anything. She just kept crying!

Madame Mu was not her grandma. But in her previous life, she was the best to her.

However, she did not have long to live. After she was engaged to Mu Zhanbei for more than a year, she died of illness.

After spending more than a year together, Madame Mu's kindness and tender love made Gu Anran truly feel the feeling of being cared for by her family.

Now that she saw Madame Mu, the joy of losing and getting back made her so excited that tears streamed down her face.

Mu Zhanbei stared at the girl who was still crying. His handsome face still did not have any expression.

He did not know when this girl and his grandmother had such a good relationship.

Of course, he also did not understand why his grandmother insisted that he and Gu Anran get engaged.

Madame Mu looked at the girl's crying face and was stunned for two seconds. Her heart ached. "Little girl has been wronged. Bei, did you bully her?"

"I..."

"It must be you." Madame Mu angrily picked up the pillow and threw it at Mu Zhanbei. "You brat. How dare you bully her before she married you?"

Poor Young Master Mu did not even have the chance to retort before he was hit by the pillow. He could not dodge it.

Gu Anran blinked her eyes and wiped her tears. When she saw the arrogant and high and mighty Young Master Mu being humiliated in front of Grandma, she actually wanted to laugh.

She knew that Young Master Mu was cold to everyone. There were only two people in his life who could truly be pitied by him.

One was his younger brother, Mu Fengjin, and the other was old madame in front of him.

"It's not him." Gu Anran wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and calmed down a little.

"What young master? You should call him Zhanbei." old madame patted her hand, "Don't be afraid. Although he looks a little cold and a little fierce, he is actually a good person."

Gu Anran did not deny these words.

Whether Young Master Mu was a good person was really hard to say.

A person who could make a name for himself in the business world was such a fierce and ruthless character. It might not be convincing to say that he was a pure good person.

However, Gu Anran still nodded her head and did not let Madame Mu worry.

Madame Mu stared at the red spots on her face and the injury on her forehead. After a long time, she sighed lightly.

She turned around and looked at Mu Zhanbei. "Bei, let everyone go out first. I have some words to say to Anran."

Mu Zhanbei still did not understand why his grandmother attached so much importance to Gu Anran.

But he was always willing to listen to his grandmother's words.

He waved his hand and everyone went out. He also walked out of the door towards the study room.

Only Madame Mu and Gu Anran were left in the room. Madame Mu looked at Gu Anran's face and her gaze was a little complicated.

"I am really happy that you are willing to call me grandma. I know that you will definitely have many questions. Why must I let you marry Bei?"

"Anran, there are many things that I cannot tell you. I just want you to understand that I love you and I really want you to be happy."

"Only Bei can be your reliance. Only he can protect you."

"But..." Gu Anran did not understand the most. She had only met Madame Mu a few times. Why must she make her happy?

"Don't ask anything and don't think too much. Remember what I said. I sincerely hope that you are happy."

Madame Mu held her hand. "This house looks very calm on the surface. In fact, the relationship is very complicated."

Gu Anran nodded. She had already experienced this in her previous life.

However, she had lived in the Mu Family for a few years in her previous life. All her thoughts were on how to please Mu Zhanbei. In fact, she did not really understand the Mu Family at all.

However, she knew how powerful this family was.

"You don't have to worry too much. As long as you and Bei are fine, Bei will protect you. Do you understand?"

Gu Anran really wanted to say that Young Master Mu was busy with many things every day and really did not have the time to protect her.

However, the person who saved her today seemed to be... really Young Master Mu?

When did he become so idle that he even personally came to the Gu family to save her?

"Grandma is not feeling well. I don't know how long I can protect you. In short, you and Bei are fine. Everything will be fine."

Gu Anran did not want her to worry. Even if she had lived two lives, she could not guess the reason why Madame Mu loved her so much.

"Grandma, I know."

The maid came back not long after. She sent Madame Mu back to rest. Mu Zhanbei was still in the study and did not have any intention of coming over.

When there was no one in the room, Gu Anran got up and walked to the bathroom to look at herself in the mirror.

She did not know what kind of injection Ye Han gave her. Now, the red spots were fading bit by bit.

If all the red spots were gone, her true face would be revealed.

But in this house, such a face would bring her countless enemies.

She also did not want Mu Zhanbei to see her real self. What should she do now?

The most terrifying thing was that she had just left the bathroom when a man suddenly appeared in the room.
