Chapter 1279: Chapter 1299

"Mom, don’t worry about it. She’s just a nutcase. I’ll head out first." Gu Shilin truly couldn’t muster any sympathy for that woman.

He had been very clear about his refusal, and over the years, he had one girlfriend after another, absolutely nothing to do with her. Why on earth is she attempting suicide now?

Trying to threaten him?

Well, too bad. Gu Shilin is willing to do anything for those he cares about, but for those he doesn’t, even a glance is too much!

Gu Shilin returned to the living room, still sporting a bright smile, looking to Gu Meng almost like a fool.

Mrs. Gu couldn’t just ignore the matter, so she sent someone to the hospital to check things out.

Time was getting on, so Gu Shili and Qiao Qiqi decided to take their leave.

Jiang Meng and Gu Shilin saw them out, and Gu Shilin finally furrowed his brows. It wasn’t that he cared about Yang Xiaofan; it was just that she was getting on his nerves.

"Gu Shilin, something wrong?" Qiao Qiqi noticed something off about his mood and asked.

"No, what could be wrong with me?" Gu Shilin shook his head vigorously.

Qiao Qiqi, "..."

Seems like there really is something up.

Jiang Meng noticed it too and asked him what was wrong?

Gu Shilin looked awkward. He was mentally cursing Yang Xiaofan. How was he supposed to explain this? No matter what he said, Meng Meng would surely overthink it, right?

And it had to be during the future in-laws’ visit!

"It’s nothing major, just a kid from a relative’s family attempting suicide." Gu Shilin had no choice but to tough it out and say it.

"What? Attempting suicide? How are they now? Were they rescued?" Jiang Meng was shocked, eyes widening.

"I don’t know, I didn’t ask." Gu Shilin shook his head.

"Do you know?" Qiao Qiqi looked at Gu Shili.

Gu Shili shook his head, "I have no relatives."

He had no relatives here, and he genuinely had no idea who was attempting suicide.

"Let’s go." Gu Shili held Qiao Qiqi’s hand.

...

Qiao Qiqi went straight to the hospital to see Zhou Zhou and casually recounted the day’s events.

In the hospital, Qiao Qiqi saw a familiar face, the Gu family butler. Wasn’t he at the Gu Family just a while ago? How did he get to the hospital so quickly?

Moreover, he was talking to someone, and his expression didn’t look too good.

Qiao Qiqi didn’t intend to eavesdrop on their conversation, but she heard it anyway.

"Little Fan attempted suicide over Shilin, and he won’t even come to take a look. Is that acceptable?" an elder said angrily.

"Madam, Young Master is busy with his future in-laws’ first visit today. The whole family is preoccupied with that. How could he have time to come to the hospital?" The butler said with a tense face.

"You people are going too far! There’s a life at stake here, and you’re prioritizing outsiders?" The old lady’s hands trembled in anger.

"Madam, they aren’t outsiders. They are the Young Master’s future wife and in-laws, all of whom are among the most important people in the Young Master’s life." The butler generally wouldn’t speak out of line, but he just couldn’t hold back this time!

He originally came just to find out how the situation was.

Since everything seemed fine, he could finish his business and report back.

"I just don’t get it. What’s wrong with Little Fan? Is Shilin blind, or what, to randomly choose a woman outside and not have Little Fan as his wife! No good women come from outside!"

The butler didn’t like hearing this.

But before he could speak, Qiao Qiqi walked over and said, "That supposed random woman is someone else’s precious daughter too!"
