Chapter 340: Chapter 340 Guilt_1
Song Siwen was ecstatic upon hearing this, his face a picture of grateful surprise,
“Thank you, Miss Song. I knew it, my mother was right. You really are a thoughtful and helpful girl, truly kind-hearted. If this matter succeeds, it will mean so much to our Song Family. From then on, you will be our benefactor. Please, allow me to bow to you!”
Song Siwen was so moved that he bowed to me time and again on the spot!
I hurried to support him.
If he knew that I was Song Yun.
That it was I who had let Gu Yuanzhou, this ravenous wolf, into the Song Family, which had led to the family’s ruin.
He probably would have hated me to his core!
“Mr. Song, please don’t do this! I’m merely lending a helping hand. But I can’t be certain that I can indeed get him to agree.”
“No worries, we await your good news!”
“Alright, then I shall take my leave.”
I couldn’t stay long in this place.
After hastily concluding the conversation, I left.
By the time I got back to A City, it was already midnight, and that night, as I lay in bed, I tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
Thinking over and over…
The next morning, I made a trip to Huaxin Group…
Since I arrived quite early, Gu Yuanzhou had not yet arrived.
Perhaps Gu Yuanzhou had already informed the front desk, for as soon as I entered, the receptionist greeted me with a smile and took my arm.
“Miss Song, President Gu said that if you were to come by, you could wait for him in his office.”
“Oh?”
Had he already calculated that I would come to seek him out?
What exactly was this man thinking?
With various doubts in my mind, I went straight into the elevator and headed directly to the president’s office.
I was actually a bit anxious and had arrived somewhat too early.
At this time, most of the company’s staff had not yet arrived for work.
The office was very quiet.
The secretary brought over a cup of tea and very politely reminded me,
“President Gu usually comes to the company at nine o’clock. Please enjoy your tea and wait for a while.”
“Alright, thank you!”
After the secretary left, my eyes scanned over his desk.
The documents on the desk were stacked neatly.
I casually picked one up and saw that it was the company’s monthly report from last month, clearly detailing the business performance and income.
It appeared the business was doing very well.
Practically all were turning a profit… After looking through a few documents, I turned my gaze toward the inner resting room.
Typically, a president’s office includes a private resting room, used for relaxation or naps during the day.
I don’t know why, but I just walked straight into it.
I pushed open that door.
I actually didn’t have a purpose, merely wanting to look around.
To my shock, that glance revealed something that took me aback.
On the table in the resting room, there was a clown mask.
Suddenly my blood rushed to my head.
I remembered Ruirui once mentioned, it was a person wearing a clown mask who beckoned her to crawl through the school fence, leading to her being taken away.
Before, I had suspected Gu Yuanzhou, but didn’t have concrete evidence.
Not until I saw this mask, did I realize, I wasn’t just suspecting him but that he truly was the culprit.
This mask proved that he was the one who tried to kidnap Ding Ruirui.
In that moment, my mind went blank, and I really wanted to strangle him.
All this pain, he had imposed upon me, this terrible demon.
There was a period of time when I stood frozen, my mind completely blank.
After a while, I came to my senses and quickly left that place.
I had just stepped out the door.
My phone started ringing.
I glanced at it, and it was a call from Ding Xiao.
Why was he looking for me at this time?
“Big brother! Do you need me for something?”
“Xiaoyun, come here right now, Yinuo has been in a car accident!”
“What? What are you talking about?”
For a moment, I couldn’t comprehend, how could Ding Yinuo, who was a bedridden patient, have been in a car accident?
He couldn’t even leave the hospital!
Did a car rush in the hospital then?
But that’s impossible, he was living on the upper floor, more than ten stories up.
“This is what happened, this morning a few of Yinuo’s friends came over, saying they wanted to take him out for some sun. Out of nowhere, a car came charging in and everyone ran away, forgetting to move Yinuo’s wheelchair.”
Hearing this, my legs went weak and I had to grasp the railing to prevent myself from collapsing.
“I’m heading to the hospital right away!”
As I spoke these words, I felt utterly drained.
I dared not picture the scene.
I had put so much effort into finding hope for Ding Yinuo’s recovery.
And now, was this accident going to take him away from me?
I flagged down a taxi by the side of the road.
I returned to the hospital in a daze, not even knowing how I got out of the car.
The hospital was packed with people, and I struggled to push through the crowd to see my Anuo.
But I felt suffocated in the throng and passed out.
When I came to, only Wenya was by my side, and I had an IV in my arm. I struggled to sit up, “Wenya, I need to see Ding Yinuo.”
Wenya had been scrolling on her phone and quickly stopped me when she saw me trying to get up,
“Stop, you should lie down, the doctor said you’re extremely weak.”
“I want to see Ding Yinuo, don’t stop me!”
My voice was hoarse as I anxiously repeated my plea over and over.
It was then Wenya told me,
“He’s not in the country anymore!”
“What do you mean? Is he… gone?”
“No, don’t panic, what I mean is… he’s fine, his condition isn’t serious, but he needs surgery that can’t be performed here. He needs to go abroad for treatment. Rest assured, a doctor from this hospital has accompanied him. He’s going to be okay.”
Wenya’s explanation reassured me somewhat.
I slowly lay back down on the bed, took a deep breath,
and Wenya continued to scold me,
“Look at you, you’re such a mess, and you’re still concerned about him. If Ding Yinuo gets sick again, he has his family, friends, and his former colleagues at the hospital to care for him. What about you? What do you have? Ayun, if you keep this up, you’re going to lose your own life too.”
Wenya sighed and shook her head.
I could only offer a bitter smile,
“If it weren’t for me, he wouldn’t be like this today, would he?”
“So, you think you’re atoning for your sins?”
“Wenya, Ding Yinuo and I are already married. Taking good care of him is my responsibility! Indeed, I feel guilty for his current predicament. There’s an element of atonement. But isn’t this what I should be doing?”
“Don’t take all the blame upon yourself! His car accident wasn’t your fault.”
“How is it not my fault?”
“This time it was an accident!”
“How could it possibly be an accident? This is Gu Yuanzhou’s doing. Gu Yuanzhou just wants to make my life miserable, he wants to see me in agony.”
