"I have some other news for you. The doctor said that your uterine walls were already thin, and now that you've undergone a clean-up operation, you can't have a child in the future."
Gu Ruochu's last sentence echoed coldly in the ward.
"Impossible! You're lying to me." Gu Li's legs trembled, and a flood of despair surged through her. "Zirui, is this true? I don't believe it! I don't believe it..."
"B*tch, you're lucky that you get to keep your life! Who knows if you'll have a serious sequela in the future."
Huo Zirui's taunting voice caused Gu Li's eyes to widen in pain. She was only twenty years old. She still wanted to have a child at some point in the future.
"Stop it! Stop it! I beg you! I know I was wrong..." Gu Li's face contorted in pain as she clutched at her body in despair. Her wound seemed to have split open again, and she was in heart-wrenching pain.
Huo Zirui had not gotten over his humiliation. He slapped Gu Li a few times before slamming the door in anger as he left. He could not stand having to agree with Gu Ruochu.
The ward fell silent after Huo Zirui left. Gu Li lay limply on the hospital bed like a corpse. She had hoped to climb up the ranks and become a wealthy lady. Unfortunately, she now lay half-dead in a hospital with an uncertain future.
Everything was over.
"Now, tell me, who helped you deceive Huo Zirui?"
Gu Ruochu did not believe that Gu Li could set up Huo Zirui on her own. She had appeared surprised when she saw the medical report.
Gu Li remained silent.
Just as Gu Ruochu turned to leave the ward, Gu Li spoke up. "It was Gu Yanwei, that woman has even taken your life."
Gu Ruochu did not fully understand what she meant.
She paused for a second. As she pushed the door open, she saw Zhang Yuan standing at the door. There was a hint of guilt in her eyes.
Zhang Yuan remained silent. The two of them stared uncomfortably at each other before Gu Ruochu walked past her.
Huo Nanchen walked over from the side and focused his gaze on Gu Ruochu.
"Ruochu, let's go."
She held his arm, and her expression was impassive. She was still the Young Madam of the Huo family.
She was dignified and elegant. Huo Nanchen proudly walked by the others with his wife in his hand.
Huang Meixiang never dreamt that her marriage would end in a divorce when she was only forty. When Gu Ruochu and Huo Nanchen returned to the Huo family home, they saw a woman kneeling at the door.
Her hair was a mess, and her clothes were torn to shreds.
From afar, they thought that she was a beggar.
Gu Ruochu and Huo Nanchen looked at each other before they stepped forward and realized that it was Huang Meixiang. As soon as she saw them, she pounced on them as if she had seen her saviors. However, Huo Nanchen kicked her away in disgust.
Gu Ruochu glanced at her without a trace of emotion.
"Miss Huang, is something the matter?"
"I... I'm here to repent." Huang Meixiang pressed her palms together. She no longer had her previous glory and arrogance. "Ruochu, I beg you, don't let Gu Qiang chase me out! I was wrong!"
She did not dare to petition Huo Nanchen, so she could only try and persuade her niece.
Gu Ruochu's face was dispassionate. Huang Meixiang was here to beg her, but her tone was still stiff. Of course, she would never sincerely repent.
Huang Meixiang deserved her fate.
"Gu Qiang's decision to divorce you is his business and has nothing to do with us." Huo Nanchen glanced at her. His eyes were filled with disgust as he entered the house with Gu Ruochu in his arms.
