Chapter 12: Qin Shu Refuses to Answer Gu Tingyan's Call

"Qin Shu, why don't you just go die with your mother! You bitch!"

Qin Shu's eyes were pitch-black, and upon hearing this, her expression turned chillingly cold.

No matter what Chu Yu said about her, she was fine; she would just strike back anyway.

But mentioning her mother was the deepest pain in Qin Shu's heart, one she dared not touch.

Her mother was a very gentle and kind woman, but in the end, she committed suicide due to depression.

Because of her mother's death, her grandfather's heart was in too much pain, and unable to bear it, he followed her.

The successive blows made her grandmother very ill; sometimes she could remember Qin Shu, and sometimes she could not.

She always kept one person in her heart, though she could no longer remember who it was.

Yet she knew she had to live on; she could not die.

Because Qin Shu was still young and still had to study; she was not yet an adult.

If she left, Qin Shu would become an orphan and be bullied to death by the Chu Family.

Nowadays, her grandmother no longer remembers Qin Shu and is still living in a nursing home.

The root of all this lies with Chu Xuanming and Jiang Chenxue! It is all thanks to them!

Qin Shu forcefully seized Chu Yu's wrist, her face filled with utter ruthlessness, and she raised her hand to slap Chu Yu's face hard!

With hatred in her eyes, Qin Shu said, "You are the bitch, your whole family are bitches!"

"Slap!" The crisp sound of the slap was deafening, leaving Chu Yu's cheek bright red; she covered her face and looked at Qin Shu in shock: "You dare hit me?"

"Want to try calling me a bitch one more time?"

Chu Yu immediately said angrily, "Bitch!"

Qin Shu raised her hand and slapped her again without hesitation: "Slap!"

"Bitch!"

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

Qin Shu swung left and right, giving her three slaps in a row.

After she finished hitting her, Qin Shu's palm was numb, but facing Chu Yu's murderous and resentful gaze, she did not care at all.

Qin Shu tilted her head slightly, looked at Chu Yu, and said nonchalantly, "Does Chu Sheng know you like Gu Tingyan?"

Chu Yu's pupils shrank; she was trembling all over with rage, panicked in her heart, and roared in embarrassment and fury: "Qin Shu!"

If Chu Sheng knew that she had developed improper thoughts about Gu Tingyan, she would definitely not let her off!

Chu Yu had witnessed Chu Sheng's ruthlessness; she was bad to the bone, had a strong possessiveness, could not tolerate others surpassing her, and was so petty that if someone made her uncomfortable, she would retaliate.

Even though the two were biological sisters, Chu Yu was very afraid of Chu Sheng and only dared to like Gu Tingyan in secret.

Five years ago, it was supposed to be her replacing Chu Sheng to marry Gu Tingyan.

It was because she was too cowardly.

The hospital said Gu Tingyan would have to be amputated, and even if he were saved, he would have to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.

He had completely become a cripple.

Chu Yu was afraid and backed down; she did not dare to marry Gu Tingyan, fearing he would be like that forever.

It was she who had a big fight with her father and said to him, "Don't you have another daughter?"

"Let Qin Shu go marry him!"

In the end, Chu Yu was the matchmaker for Qin Shu marrying Gu Tingyan.

Chu Xuanming immediately sent a message to Qin Shu, saying her grandmother was critically ill, lured her back from school, and had her taken directly to the Gu Family.

Chu Yu's eyes were red as she looked at Qin Shu unwillingly: "The one who should have married Gu Tingyan back then was me!"

Qin Shu looked at her coldly and hit the nail on the head: "But you didn't dare."

"You also didn't expect that one day, Gu Tingyan would be able to stand up again."

Chu Yu curled her fingers, stepped back with a pale face, her eyes filled with regret and unwillingness, and a wave of palpitations.

Qin Shu pushed her away and left without looking back.

As soon as she came out, she ran into Ji Yanli, who was leaning against the wall, and her footsteps paused slightly.

Ji Yanli smiled at her: "I was afraid you might faint, so I came to check on you."

Qin Shu felt a surge of gratitude in her heart and whispered, "Thank you."

Ji Yanli laughed: "If you really want to thank me, why don't you treat me to a meal?"

Qin Shu knew that without Ji Yanli, she would not be standing here unscathed.

Never mind one meal, a hundred meals would be worth treating him to.

Qin Shu looked at Ji Yanli and said, "You pick the restaurant, I'll pay."

Ji Yanli said without hesitation: "Fine, I'll definitely pick the most expensive one."

The two walked outside side by side; just as they got into the car, Qin Shu's phone rang, and she glanced down to see the caller ID was "Husband."

Ji Yanli caught a glimpse of it and saw it was a call from Gu Tingyan; he looked at Qin Shu with a calm expression: "Aren't you going to answer?"

Qin Shu swiped her finger and hung up directly.

She said coldly, "I don't want to answer."

Let it be whatever it wants to be; she was done catering to him!

Just as Qin Shu hung up, the person on the other end persisted and kept calling, so she turned her phone off and tossed it aside, ignoring it.

Gu Tingyan must be coming to hold her accountable because she hit Chu Sheng's own biological sister; he had always loved the house and its crow.

In the past, whenever Chu Yu came to provoke her and Qin Shu fought back, Gu Tingyan would come looking for her.

She was quite annoyed by it, so she simply started faking it, specifically picking inconspicuous places to hit, and even after hitting her, she would refuse to admit it.

Gu Tingyan had finally managed to get away to find Qin Shu in the surgery department, but he ran through the entire department and couldn't find her.

He continued to call, but the other side had turned the phone off entirely.

Gu Tingyan knew that Qin Shu was angry.

She would never refuse to answer his calls.

In the past, when Gu Tingyan sat in a wheelchair, even if Qin Shu were asleep, she would get up to answer Gu Tingyan's call the moment the phone rang, fearing that something might have happened to him.

Qin Shu kept her phone on 24 hours a day so that Gu Tingyan could find her anytime, anywhere.

Gu Tingyan continued to call, but it remained unreachable.

He sent a WeChat message to Qin Shu: "Huahua, where are you?"

"Call me when you see this message; I am very worried about you."

After Gu Tingyan sent the message, he lowered his head and stared at the screen for a long time, but he did not see a reply from Qin Shu.

At the thought of the injuries on Qin Shu's body, a sense of panic and restlessness arose in his heart for no reason, and his face grew irritable.

"Brother-in-law." Seeing Gu Tingyan, Chu Yu's eyes lit up; she let go of her hand covering her cheek and walked toward him with red eyes, a hint of grievance in her gaze.

This time, Qin Shu had left behind such a big handle by beating her face like this.

Gu Tingyan would definitely scold her to death!

She began to complain aggrievedly: "Qin Shu hit me!"

Gu Tingyan saw the two high swellings on her cheeks and frowned, feeling an inexplicable irritation in his heart: "Did you go and provoke her again?"

Chu Yu felt guilty, but said righteously: "I did not!"

"She just doesn't like the sight of me!"

Gu Tingyan glanced at her with his deep, dark eyes and said indifferently: "Why doesn't she hit anyone else, but only you?"

Chu Yu: "..." Because she is sick!

"Stay away from her if you have nothing to do."

Gu Tingyan was in no mood to deal with her and asked straightforwardly: "Where is Qin Shu?"

Chu Yu's body stiffened slightly; she had not expected that he would not care about her at all.

The first thing he did was ask about Qin Shu!

Chu Yu covered her face with her hand, inadvertently brushed back her hair, and said casually: "After she hit me, she left with a man."

She looked up at Gu Tingyan pitifully to complain: "Brother-in-law, they looked very intimate; their relationship is not ordinary."

Gu Tingyan paused and said indifferently: "Mm."

After he finished speaking, he lifted his foot and walked out, picking up his phone to dial Ji Yanli's number.

As if he had expected it, Ji Yanli had already turned his phone off.

Gu Tingyan could not get through to his phone and was stunned for a moment.
