Chapter 70: The Unworthy

Wan Yu was so infuriated that she laughed. "So, President Fu, you only came because Miss Nan was here. In that case, you don't need to stay either. All of you can leave together. We don't need outsiders like you here."

Outsiders.

She emphasized those two words heavily.

Nan Shiqing and He Xia's faces darkened visibly.

Fu Siyue's cold gaze swept over Wan Yu as he spoke in a low voice, "I respect you as Sister Wan and am willing to show you some courtesy. Don't push things too far."

Wan Yu laughed again, this time with unrestrained anger. She retorted without the slightest politeness, "Everyone here knows what happened between you and the person inside, and what happened between you and Nan Shiqing. Who's really pushing things too far here? And what right do you have to stay?"

Fu Siyue's expression grew even more severe.

Gu Xiaoqi pulled gently at Wan Yu's hand. "Sister Wan, calm down. There's no need to get upset over people who aren't worth it."

Hearing her own friend's words, Wan Yu's expression finally softened a little. She sighed in resignation, "I'm just angry on her behalf."

Gu Xiaoqi forced a faint smile. "Yinyin has already seen things clearly. All we can do now is pray that she's all right."

Wan Yu frowned, still unable to keep her worries at bay. She knew nothing about the current situation and hadn't even caught a glimpse of Mu Yinyin. Unable to help herself, she asked again, "So... how was Yinyin when you found her?"

"She was able to stand on her own, but I think she was forcing herself to hold on. After we arrived, she fainted. There were abrasions on her arm and face."

"If it's just abrasions, that's good," Wan Yu said, her expression growing serious as she tried to analyze Mu Yinyin's condition.

So they waited for an hour before the doctor finally emerged.

All eyes immediately turned to the doctor. Wan Yu was the first to step forward, asking without hesitation, "Doctor, how is she?"

The doctor took off his mask and spoke softly, "The patient's condition isn't serious. There's no sign of fractures. However, falling from such a height can cause some symptoms of physical weakness. She needs to stay under observation in the hospital for two days to see if there are any aftereffects."

Nan Shiqing: "?!"

He Xia: "?!"

How could this be! From such a height, and Mu Yinyin is actually fine? How is that possible?!

If not for the current circumstances, the mother and daughter might have blurted out their disbelief right then and there.

Wan Yu frowned and asked in a grave tone, "If she's all right, why hasn't she regained consciousness?"

"As I just mentioned, it's due to the impact. But don't worry, it shouldn't be a major issue. Just keep a close eye on her for the next two days."

Gu Xiaoqi, relieved, exclaimed, "She's all right? Really? When will she wake up?"

"Let her rest for the night. She should wake up tomorrow."

The doctor spoke with utmost seriousness.

Yet...

Everyone in the corridor felt something was amiss; there was something odd about this whole situation.

Why was it that, after falling from such a height...

She could still be unharmed?

Perhaps their expressions made the doctor feel the need to explain further. "The airbag deployed in time, and... the patient herself likely instinctively protected herself. At the moment of the fall, she must have braced for impact. If I'm not mistaken, her car landed in a relatively safe spot, without hitting anything dangerous."

Nan Shiqing's fists clenched instantly, frustration flickering deep in her eyes!

Indeed, Mu Yinyin's car had landed in an exceptionally safe and open area. How on earth did she get so lucky? To land so perfectly?

She didn't believe a word of the doctor's explanation. Mu Yinyin couldn't possibly know how to do all that.

It could only mean she was lucky!

To escape unscathed from such a situation!

Fu Siyue's eyes grew increasingly complicated.

Just how much about Mu Yinyin did he still not know?

In the past, he would have agreed with Nan Shiqing, thinking it was just luck.

But today, it was clear as day: Mu Yinyin had evaded disaster with skill.

In that critical moment, she made the right choices, minimizing harm.

Mu Yinyin.

Mu Yinyin.

Fu Siyue's face grew darker, his lips pressed tightly together as he remained silent.

"That's wonderful! It's so good she's all right!" He Xia exclaimed in excitement.

Nan Shiqing forced a smile to match her mother's.

Why!

Why did that wretched woman survive!

She was on the verge of losing her mind! The plan was perfect, every detail in place, even the winds were in her favor!

But...

But that woman...!

Nan Shiqing could barely think anymore; her mind was on the brink of collapse.

After the doctor left, a team of nurses came to transfer Mu Yinyin to a high-end, exclusive ward on the top floor.

Since Lu Zaozao hadn't just had surgery, there was no need for a sterile room.

Now they had all entered the ward, but Mu Yinyin was still in a deep sleep, not yet awake.

Everyone sat in silence, none of them intending to leave.

Two hours passed. It was well past midnight.

Nan Shiqing looked at Fu Siyue with feigned concern. "Siyue, it's late. You have a busy day tomorrow. Why don't you head home? I'll stay here with my sister. As soon as she wakes up, I'll let you know right away."

Gu Xiaoqi was already annoyed, and seeing Nan Shiqing playing the innocent white lotus in front of Fu Siyue made her even more furious. She immediately snapped, "Just leave. I've already said it—none of you are welcome here! Who are you putting on this act for? They're divorced. There's no need for you to play the victim. Yinyin won't be fighting you anymore."

Nan Shiqing's face turned ghastly pale. She shook her head frantically. "No... it's not like that... Director Gu, you misunderstand me, I really didn't—"

"Ha!" Gu Xiaoqi's cold laugh cut her off, leaving her speechless.

Nan Shiqing was livid!

That hateful woman! How dare she slander her in front of Fu Siyue!

Why were Mu Yinyin and her friends all so detestable!

Gu Xiaoqi glared at them coldly. "Leave on your own. Don't make me repeat myself. If I say any more, you won't be able to handle it."

Fu Siyue's sharp gaze shot toward Gu Xiaoqi. Though he said nothing, the threat in his eyes was clear. Gu Xiaoqi's expression faltered for a moment, but then Li Chuan fixed his own icy stare on Fu Siyue.
