Chapter 1438 - 1439: Mu Tiantian’s Rebellion 10

Bai Chenyao’s words were like a bolt from the blue for Gu Qingci.

Although she thought it was impossible, when the discipline inspection commission took her husband away the next day, just after he returned from a business trip, Gu Qingci fell to the ground, her legs giving out.

By the time she arrived at the City Hospital, Mu Tiantian had just woken up.

After the initial confusion and haze passed, Mu Tiantian blinked, ignored Bai Chenyao by the bedside, and turned slightly to see her aunt, a little surprised.

"Aunt...cough cough..."

Because Bai Chenyao had really used force at that time, Mu Tiantian injured her vocal cords, and even speaking caused her throat to hurt terribly.

"Drink some water!"

Bai Chenyao brought the cup to Mu Tiantian’s mouth, but she directly ignored it, stubbornly looking at her aunt and enduring the pain to ask.

"Auntie, why... are you here?"

Gu Qingci’s face was deathly pale, and almost instinctively, she glanced at Bai Chenyao next to her.

Bai Chenyao, however, did not look at her, seemingly having all his attention on Mu Tiantian.

"Be good, drink water!"

Mu Tiantian continued to ignore him; he had almost strangled her to death, and now he was trying to play the good guy.

Was it because he saw her aunt here?

A cold smile flashed in her eyes as Mu Tiantian’s dissatisfaction and anger toward Bai Chenyao increased to another level.

Actually, she had already regained her senses and knew the words she said yesterday were very hurtful.

But thinking about how much she suffered with Shen Tiancheng, she just wanted Bai Chenyao to apologize, which seemed harder than ascending to heaven.

She clearly remembered that Bai Chenyao had apologized to her before.

Why was it possible before, but now, even though he was obviously in the wrong, he still maintained that indifferent attitude?

Mu Tiantian was both angry and frustrated, secretly determined that this time, Bai Chenyao would see.

Of course, if Bai Chenyao remained domineering and unreasonable, there was nothing she could do.

After all, they were already divorced, and eventually they would go their separate ways.

Thinking of this, a pang of pain struck Mu Tiantian’s heart. She quickly closed her eyes, forcing those thoughts away, staring with wide eyes at her aunt.

Gu Qingci opened her mouth, but noticing Bai Chenyao’s warning gaze, she paused, managing to squeeze out a smile after a while.

"You child...really scared your aunt to death. Of all places to go, why did you have to run over to Qi Mountain!"

"Why not go somewhere else for a trip? Going to Qi Mountain in winter, do you want to become an East City popsicle?"

"Always such a well-behaved and sensible person, how did you suddenly become so confused? Truly worrying! If your father were still here, he would probably be worried to death by you too!"

Hearing her aunt mention her departed father, Mu Tiantian felt her nose sting.

Taking a deep breath, she smiled at Gu Qingci.

"Sorry for worrying you, auntie. It’s all my fault, but I promise, such a thing will never happen again!"

She had gone with a determination to die, not even considering her family’s feelings at the time.

She was afraid that if she considered it, she would feel all sorts of reluctance.

Seeing her aunt’s pale face, seemingly truly frightened by her actions, Mu Tiantian quickly apologized and promised again.

"Auntie...cough cough...I truly—"

"Alright, alright, no need to talk about those things. Being well is more important than anything!"

Noticing Bai Chenyao by the side, Gu Qingci quickly spoke up.

"You’re grown up, yet you still throw tantrums! Chenyao stayed up all night watching over you, serving you as soon as you woke up, and yet you still have a temper? Stop throwing a fit and drink some water!"

Mu Tiantian: "..."

[Thanks to user Han Meimei for the reward, I’m very happy, mwah, so there’s an extra Chapter today, a total of nine Chapters. I’m glad you like Eight Young Master’s writing, it makes me very happy too, but remember to take care of your health while reading, sleep early and wake up early for your health. Plus, updates are released at midnight, so it’s better to read them the next morning, you’ll have something new to read as soon as you wake up. Regarding updates, Eight Young Master says that if I could finish writing all at once, I’d be willing to update more daily to finish early since updating daily at a fixed time means writing a certain amount every day, much like a daily job. However, Eight Young Master’s family is busy lately, there’s no one to watch the child, and she’s writing while looking after the baby, waiting until the baby sleeps to start writing. I hope everyone understands.]
