"So, what if he's that powerful? If you are not willing to help aunt, I'll go to City D myself! I can at least bail her out!", Mo Lei declared and stormed towards the main door.
Mo Ying was fuming.
He glared at his wife who has spoiled this son of theirs to the point that he did not know what is good for him. Not only did he get the lustful trait of that disgusting Feng family, but he also got their stupidity and unreasonableness.
Feng Xue did not dare to look at her husband or anyone in the family. She just sat there and tried to bury and make herself smaller. She also did not want to stop Mo Lei.
Feng Xue also wanted to save Mo Yu. She was the only member of this family who was good to her since she married in. Since Mo Yu was single, she also spoiled her son. Her son got a lot of benefits from her, and of course, so as she.
[If she rots in jail, I wouldn't receive any more good things from her!]
[Also, that sl*t Lu Anqing is still alive?! That sl*t who dared to run away from our Feng family's marriage proposal?! And now, she's enjoying life as Gu Feng's wife? Peh! She and her daughter really deserve to die.]
[It's a shame Mo Yu failed to kill them both.]
"Butler! Guards! Stop that brat! Lock him up!", Mo Ying ordered.

-Creaaak-
The door of the emergency room abruptly opened, and a doctor emerged.
This startled Lu Anqing, Gu Feng, and the others who have finally calmed down and are now sitting on the benches.
Lu Anqing was the first to react and sprung to her feet, "Doctor… doctor, how… how's my daughter?"
The doctor first nodded at Gu Feng and then at Lu Anqing, "Madam, your daughter is fine now. Other than the open-cut that made her lose blood, fortunately, there wasn't any trauma in any of her internal organs."
As soon as the doctor said that, the heavy atmosphere that is looming in the waiting area finally disappeared.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"The stab was around the area of the small intestines, and they can usually move out of the away from a thrust. A knife is usually not fast enough to penetrate the slippery and tangly organ compared to bullets. It was a good thing that she did not suffer anything more than that and she was also rushed here as soon as possible."
"We will be moving the patient to the VIP ward in a few minutes, please feel free to tell the hospital staff of any request Madam… CEO Gu."
Gu Feng raised his hand to brush the doctor, "There is no need, we will be taking Meimei with us to City A. Assistant Xiong, prepare the je—"
"No, Hubby. Let's wait for Meimei to wake up first to ask for her opinion. She hates it when someone else makes a decision for her. Besides… It… it was our matter that put her in this situation." Lu Anqing advised Gu Feng, also feeling guilty.
Gu Feng's brows furrowed, "This…"
[Who would've thought that their acquaintance, Mo Yu, had thoughts of hurting my new family.]
[The only time she did something extreme was when we were in our early twenties. That was a long time ago.]
[Even when I met her again years after that, she didn't do anything crazy. I usually see her and her family, but I don't remember her even approaching me at those events or parties.]
[I didn't feel her having any malicious thoughts on either Ming'er or Cheng'er when our family hosts celebrations or birthdays.]
[But no matter what now, that woman has to pay!]
"Alright… Assistant Xiong, for now, deal with the incident. Keep in touch with both police here in City D and in City A. Send someone to the Mo family's residence if necessary."
-Eheeerm-
Zheng Li cleared his throat to grab their attention, "Excuse me, Mr. Gu…"
Gu Feng and Lu Anqing looked at Zheng Li.
They completely forgot about this young man. The one who saved their daughter.
Lu Anqing's eyes gleamed, "Ah, Mr…"
"Zheng Li, Madam. I'm called Zheng Li, and this is my grandmother Cai Liquin." Zheng Li introduced himself and his grandma.
Cai Liquin also smiled and nodded at both Lu Anqing and Gu Feng.
There wasn't really any reason to introduce themselves earlier at the restaurant because it was Yan Rumei who helped her. It would be inappropriate and quite a stretch if they tried to get close to CEO Gu Feng and his new wife.
But now is a different matter. Zheng Li was involved in the incident, and it was quite a huge one at that.
Gu Feng and Lu Anqing also nodded back.
"Ah, Mr. Zheng... Mrs. Cai, I'm Lu Anquing, Yan Rumei's mother, and this is my husband whom you probably already know, Gu Feng."
"You don't know how grateful I am, Mr. Zheng." Tears slowly formed in the corner of Lu Anqing's eyes. "My… my daughter… Thank you for saving my daughter."
With trembling hands, Lu Anqing then held Zheng Li's hands "I wouldn't know what to do if I lost my one and only baby. Thank you so much, Mr. Zheng."
Gu Feng patted his wife's back once again, and then he also expressed his appreciation of Zheng Li, "My wife is right Mr. Zheng. We are truly thankful for your actions to stop the attacker. You acted fast to save our daughter."
"We don't know how to thank you enough." Gu Feng signaled Assistant Xiong on his side.
Assistant Xiong then stepped forward to hand Zheng Li a business card. "This may be a little improper because your Zheng family is a reputable family in City A, but please, if you need anything, want anything… As long as it's something legal and within my abilities, please let me know."
Zheng Li's face tinged with a little contempt which was noticed by Gu Feng. "You misunderstand Mr. Gu, the only living person in the Zheng family that is my family is my grandma here."
"Li'er!" Cai Liquin was shocked that she called Zheng Li in a reprimanding tone.
Although she agreed for the time being about her grandson's decision to not fight for the family head position and build his own business, it was indiscreet to declare this in front of other people.
Gu Feng raised his eyebrow in interest.
-Eheeerm-
Zheng Li cleared his throat one more time.
"Mr. and Mrs. Gu, I only did what I thought was right at that moment. But Mr. Gu, could I ask a favor to not reveal to the media about my involvement in this matter? I do not want to attract the attention of the Zheng family at the moment, and I would really appreciate it if my name and background can be kept classified."
