434 She Didnst Want Tha (1/2)
She wasn't going to go back to the Capital empty handed. She was going to ruin at least one of them, whether it was Tang Mo'er or Lin Shiyu!
Dark resentment twisted through her mind like poisonous vines.
…
In the hospital.
The injury on An'an's left chest was recovering well, except for the two drops of acid, which had left a mark on her delicate skin. The doctor had treated her wound but apologized, ”Mrs Gu, due to the effects of the acid, there will be a scar left on Miss An'an's chest.”
Tang Mo'er was filled with guilt, An'an's skin was so delicate, just like a boiled egg. Her skin was supple and simply flawless, but now she was going to have a scar on her chest. That was a woman's most private and cherished areas. It was all her fault.
”Doctor, is there any way to get rid of the scar?” Tang Mo'er asked.
”Mrs Gu, when Miss An'an's condition gets better, we can make use of aesthetic treatments to remove the scar.”
A soft voice was heard, An'an stretched out her tiny hand and held onto Tang Mo'er. ”Little sister-in-law, don't worry about it. I'm fine.”
…
Along the corridor.
Gu Mohan stood tall by the door, Yan Dong was beside him while reporting, ”President, I've checked. Qin Yawen was behind it, but she was able to escape.”
Hearing Qin Yawen's name, Gu Mohan raised a good-looking brow before he revealed a spurious smile.
”President, why are you laughing?” Yan Dong was perplexed.
Gu Mohan had both hands in his trouser pocket, his deep and magnetic voice revealed a hint of amusement. ”Yan Dong, don't you find this amusing? It's understandable for a mother to dislike her biological daughter, but for a mother to splash acid on her daughter's face and ruin her appearance. Why do I get the feeling that Mo'er isn't Qin Yawen's… biological daughter.”
Tang Mo'er wasn't Qin Yawen's biological daughter? Gu Mohan's words took Yan Dong's breath away.
”President, I agree that this is a peculiar situation. How on earth would there be a mother who behaves like Qin Yawen, moreover… why would she want to ruin Madam's appearance?”
That's right, why would she do such a thing?
Gu Mohan's deep and narrow eyes narrowed into a sharp gaze. How did Mo'er's face even pose a threat to Qin Yawen? Why did she even have to resort to being so rancorous and splashing acid?
The two drops of acid had left a scar on An'an's skin. That huge amount of acid on Mo'er's face would have caused a devastating effect, Qin Yawen was indeed ruthless.
”An'an, how is my An'an?” Huo Yanmei had rushed over and she wanted to enter the hospital ward.
”Mother,” Gu Mohan greeted her, ”I have some questions for you.”
Huo Yanmei halted her footsteps. ”Mohan, what did you want to ask me about?”
Gu Mohan's deep and narrow eyes landed on Huo Yanmei's face, he asked calmly, ”Dad never stopped having mistresses outside all these years. Without fail, each and every one was selected with Lin Xuanji's appearance in mind. This time, when Dad arrived in Karghalik, he was obsessed with Mo'er right after taking one glimpse of her. I'd like to ask, is there any resemblance between Mo'er and Lin Xuanji?”
Huo Yanmei gasped and stepped back, she didn't expect Gu Mohan to make such an association.
Her gaze was nervous and she averted her eyes. ”Mohan, why are you asking me such a thing?”
”Mother,” Gu Mohan smirked, his gaze was dull, so dull it seemed cold but it was just like sharp beams of x-rays. He seemed to be able to look into her mind and read her thoughts. ”Back then, you were best friends with Lin Xuanji. Why are you panicking when I'm just asking about Lin Xuanji? Wasn't she your best friend?”
Panicking?
The corner of Huo Yanmei's lips contorted, her son's gaze was too overpowering and she didn't dare to have eye contact with him. ”I'm not panicking, it's been a long time and I can't really recall things from the past. Tang Mo'er doesn't resemble Lin Xuanji at all.”
Doesn't resemble Lin Xuanji at all.
Gu Mohan didn't have much of an expression, he signaled Yan Dong with a gaze.
Yan Dong had understood his intentions, he nodded his head respectfully and turned around before taking his leave.
