Bai Su hurried forward to catch up to Gu Yan.

However, Mu Chen grabbed her wrist and pulled her to the side. He stared fixedly at Bai Su with killing intent surging in his eyes. “That person just now is the young boss of the Gu Corporation, Gu Yan?”

He had known Gu Yan for more than twenty years. He would even specially visit the Gu family every year during the Lunar New Year.

He just didn’t expect to meet him here again.

Moreover, he had just given Bai Su a ring and Bai Su was wearing it on her finger.

He stared at the ring on Bai Su’s ring finger with a fake smile.

“Are you his fiancée?” Gu Yan asked mockingly.

“You heard everything just now?”

Bai Su looked at Mu Chen warily and then at the ring in her hand. So he had been hiding in the dark since that time to spy on her?

Mu Chen coldly snorted.

It was no wonder that she would always go to places with no one to make a call. It was also no wonder that he wouldn’t see her for several consecutive days.

So she had other plans behind his back.

Bai Su took off the ring awkwardly and put it back in her pocket. She couldn’t take this thing. She had to find a chance to return it to him.

“He and I aren’t what you think.”

Bai Su bit her lip. For a moment, she actually felt that she was in the wrong and felt that she had done something wrong to Mu Chen. However, she quickly reacted. “Mu Chen, we’re a fake couple, right? Then, who I like and who I don’t like has nothing to do with you. I hope that you can find Mu Xing and explain our relationship to her. I will also find Gu Yan and have a good chat with him.”

Yes, she could explain.

“Or can you help me explain to Gu Yan? If you do it, it will be more convincing.”

Bai Su looked at Mu Chen earnestly and begged.

Mu Chen frowned.

He had seen Bai Su’s arrogant and aloof appearance before, and he had also seen her domineering and tough appearance. However, she had never begged him for another man.

“Haha.”

He smiled coldly. “Bai Su, why do you think I’m willing to swallow my pride and explain to Gu Yan for you?”

That was funny. What did she take him for?

“And now that Mu Xing already knows about this, she will definitely tell granny. What do you want me to do then?” Mu Chen asked.

“I don’t understand either. Since you’ve already hooked up with the Gu Corporation’s heir, why did you scheme to get close to Grandma and scheme to marry me?”

“You…”

Bai Su was furious. Mu Chen definitely didn’t think before he spoke!

However, her past with Gu Yan couldn’t be explained in a few words.

Besides, she was physically and mentally exhausted and didn’t even have the strength to say another word.

To think that for a moment, she had hope that Mu Chen would help her. She must have been crazy!

“Forget it. You can think whatever you want. You can explain it to whoever you want. I’ll find a chance to explain to Grandma.” Bai Su left without looking back.

She searched the back garden for a long time but couldn’t find Gu Yan.

She returned to the ward again, but Gu Yan wasn’t around. She, the doctor, and the nurses searched the entire hospital, but they didn’t find anything. In the end, she found Gu Yan pushing the wheelchair away from the surveillance camera at the entrance of the hospital.

Where was he going?

Bai Su panicked.

The surgery was tomorrow. Why did Gu Yan disappear at this time?

For tomorrow’s surgery, she had done too much and even faked her marriage with Mu Chen. But why did everything go down the drain in the end?

Bai Su sat on the ground weakly and looked blankly at the heavy traffic at the entrance of the hospital.

She curled herself into a ball and buried her head deep in her knees. Her shoulders trembled.

She was extremely heartbroken, and her mind went blank as she sat there in a daze.

Mu Chen, who wasn’t far away, looked at Bai Su indifferently.

Was she crying?

At that moment, Mu Chen wanted to walk over and give the fragile woman a firm hug.

But he endured it.

he walked to Bai Su’s side and returned to his usual poker face.

“So you’re upset that you’ve lost your sugar daddy, Gu Yan? Then why don’t you take a look at me? I’m better and more powerful than him in terms of financial capability.”

Moreover, Gu Yan had already broken off all ties with the Gu Corporation. He was a chess piece that the Gu Corporation had abandoned and would no longer use.

The strangest thing was that he was really comparing himself to Gu Yan just now.
