Chapter 960 - 190: Proposal (Part 6)
Before Nie Xiaoxing could finish speaking, Gu Yan asked in a slightly calmer tone.
Gu Yan used "come over to see ’you all’" instead of "you," so Nie Xiaoxing couldn’t reject him directly (is that so?), and took the phone down, asking Yige and Mu Yan, "Mr. Gu said he wants to come see you all, is that okay?"
Hearing "Mr. Gu" from the other end again, Gu Yan was about to explode.
Tang Yige coughed, shrugged, "I’m fine with it."
Mu Yan made an "OK" gesture.
Nie Xiaoxing nodded, then put the phone back to her ear, saying calmly, "They say it’s okay."
"Address!" Gu Yan’s voice trembled with restraint.
Nie Xiaoxing, expressionless, gave the address.
Knowing the address, Gu Yan exploded immediately, "Nie Xiaoxing, just wait for me!"
Nie Xiaoxing, "..." Idiot!
Calmly hanging up the phone, Nie Xiaoxing looked at Yige and Mu Yan with especially steady eyes, "Why are you looking at me like that? Don’t recognize me anymore?"
Tang Yige and Mu Yan simultaneously turned their gaze away.
In their hearts, they thought the same thing.
If Gu Yan and Nie Xiaoxing ever get together, Gu Yan would get infuriated by Nie Xiaoxing’s calmness!
...
Gu Yan appeared at the restaurant gracefully, his baby face carrying a friendly smile, showing no signs of the rage on the phone, looking as if, like Nie Xiaoxing, nothing had happened.
They were seated at a small table for four.
Originally, Yige sat on one side, Nie Xiaoxing and Mu Yan on the other.
But knowing Gu Yan was coming, Mu Yan silently moved to Yige’s side, leaving the spot beside Nie Xiaoxing for Gu Yan.
Nie Xiaoxing just glanced at Mu Yan a couple of times without saying anything.
However, those glances made Mu Yan’s little heart thump for a while.
When Gu Yan arrived, he didn’t hesitate and sat directly next to Nie Xiaoxing, energetically greeting Yige and Mu Yan with enthusiasm and cheerfulness.
Tang Yige and Mu Yan also pretended as if they noticed nothing.
Nie Xiaoxing was thin, taking up little space.
After Gu Yan arrived, she also proactively moved inward, leaving nearly two-thirds of the space for Gu Yan.
Once Gu Yan arrived, she didn’t look at him, focusing on her food.
"Ahem, well then." Mu Yan straightened her back, quietly grabbed her bag from behind, smiled at Gu Yan and Nie Xiaoxing, "I suddenly thought of something I need to do at school, you two take your time eating, I’ll leave first."
"It’s okay, students need to focus on their studies," Gu Yan said in a supportive tone toward Mu Yan.
Mu Yan, "..." Hehe.
Then she got up and left the restaurant.
As soon as Mu Yan left, Tang Yige was about to speak.
Without looking up, Nie Xiaoxing briskly said, "Sister Yi, Little Yan is gone, do you have something to do too?"
Uh...
Tang Yige awkwardly replied, "Actually, I do."
Nie Xiaoxing didn’t speak further.
Gu Yan knowingly smiled at Yige, "Sister Xiao Yi, if you have something to do, don’t force yourself, alright?"
"Then I’ll be leaving. The bill..."
"I’ll pay!" Gu Yan said with exuberance.
Tang Yige wasn’t polite with him, knowing he wasn’t short on money, and left with her bag, just like Mu Yan.
Once Tang Yige and Mu Yan had left, Gu Yan’s expression shifted dramatically as he shot a cold glance at a perfectly composed Nie Xiaoxing eating her food, "Is it good?"
"Not bad," replied Nie Xiaoxing.
"Nie Xiaoxing!" Gu Yan growled, his face darkening as he glared at Nie Xiaoxing, "Do you have a conscience? I was gone for just a moment and you ran off without saying a word. Do you know how worried I was when I came back and couldn’t find you?!"
Worried...
Nie Xiaoxing paused with her fork, then continued eating, "Worried about what? Is there anything to be worried about?"
"Have you looked at yourself? Seeing how ugly you’ve become and still having the nerve to go out wandering around!"
Gu Yan stared at her bruised right eye as he spoke.
Bang—
Nie Xiaoxing suddenly slammed the spoon in her hand onto the plate in front of her on the table.
Gu Yan’s eyes widened.
Staring at that plate... well, it couldn’t be called a plate anymore.
Because it had... shattered!
That violent woman!
Gu Yan looked at Nie Xiaoxing incredulously, not knowing what to say to her.
At this moment, a waiter heard the noise and hurried over. Seeing the broken plate in front of Nie Xiaoxing, he was startled and stared at her nervously.
Nie Xiaoxing stood up, grabbing her studded backpack, and forcefully pushed Gu Yan aside with her leg.
Gu Yan was pushed so that his legs dangled off the side of his seat.
Nie Xiaoxing walked out, glanced at the waiter, and said, "He’ll pay for the plate!"
Then, Nie Xiaoxing directly left the restaurant.
Gu Yan, "..."
What the hell!
This ugly freak is actually so arrogant!
"Sir."
The waiter looked at Gu Yan, trembling.
Gu Yan angrily pulled out a Black Gold Card and handed it to the waiter.
The waiter quickly accepted it, bowed, and said, "Please wait a moment."
"Hurry up, I’m in a rush." Although Gu Yan suppressed his anger, his voice still had an unmistakably violent edge.
"Okay." The waiter hurriedly said, holding the Black Gold Card as he rushed to the front desk to settle the bill.
In less than two minutes, the waiter returned like the wind, handing the Black Gold Card back to Gu Yan with both hands.
Gu Yan took it, his face grim, and strode outside.
Nie Xiaoxing, you’d better not get caught by Mr. Gu, or you’re dead!
...
Tang Yige, after parting ways with Mu Yan and Nie Xiaoxing, planned to drive back to Jinxiu Huadu.
Just as she got in the car, a nurse from Linx Hospital called, insisting she come to the hospital as soon as possible.
Tang Yige’s mind fluttered, instinctively thinking something had happened to Zhou Xueran.
She rushed to the hospital hurriedly.
But the nurse told her it was Tang Yuwen.
The reason being, Tang Yuwen had suddenly stopped cooperating with the treatment, was making a big fuss in the ward, smashing things, injuring the private nurse, and running to the corridor to make a scene.
The situation was so disruptive that the hospital had no choice but to have the nurse contact Tang Yige.
Hearing the ins and outs of the situation, Tang Yige’s face darkened.
She quickly headed to Tang Yuwen’s ward.
As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she could hear Tang Yuwen’s roaring from a distance.
The hospital leaders, doctors, nurses, and patients and families on this floor were almost blocking the corridor.
The nurse repeatedly told them that the emotionally unstable patient’s family member had come, and the crowd in the corridor finally made way for Yige.
Tang Yige’s face was so dark it could drip ink by now.
She walked quickly into the ward and saw Tang Yuwen furiously overturning the sofas and chairs, causing a major commotion.
Tang Yige clenched her hands, her eyes brimming with red, "Tang Yuwen, what are you doing?"
Hearing Yige’s voice, Tang Yuwen paused in the act of lifting one end of the sofa, glaring at Yige with furious eyes, his old face flushed, and the veins on his forehead and neck bulging noticeably, looking terrifying.
"What on earth are you doing?" Tang Yige’s voice carried a hint of collapse.
Tang Yuwen snorted hatefully, abruptly letting go of the sofa, pointing angrily at Yige, "Ungrateful daughter, you’re such an ungrateful daughter. You just want me dead, don’t you? You just want me dead!"
Tang Yige was trembling with anger, "Do you even know what you’re saying?"
"Of course I know what I’m saying! You’re narrow-minded, ruthless, without a shred of compassion or mercy for your parents, and even more cruel to your sister. Your goal is to see us all dead, isn’t it? Tang Yige, I’ll die now, I’ll jump out from here, will you be satisfied then?"
Tang Yuwen finished speaking and really rushed towards the window of the ward.
"No!"
Tang Yige was almost scared out of her wits, tears suddenly streaming from the corners of her eyes as she screamed hoarsely, "No. I’ll let Tang Ruan go, I’ll let her go!"
Tang Yuwen’s whole waist and abdomen had already hit the windowsill, but upon hearing this, his hands stopped like dry branches against the window ledge, abruptly halting.
And the scene of Tang Yuwen’s desperate act just now had already left the medical staff standing at the door of the ward dumbfounded, not daring to make a sound.
Tang Yige bent over, only feeling excruciating pain in her chest and lungs.
She pressed one hand to her chest, unable to stop the tears from falling.
She looked at Tang Yuwen, as if unable to catch her breath, her voice hoarse to the extreme, "Stop making a fuss, I’ve agreed to let Tang Ruan go, isn’t that enough? Can you stop?"
Tang Yuwen’s body was also trembling violently, his eyes wide staring at Yige, "Really?"
Tang Yige nodded, "Yes, as you wish."
But Tang Yuwen was still uncertain, looking at Yige, "Swear it."
"..."
