This puzzlement planted a seed in his heart.
"Mr. Gu, right? Someone has reported you for illegal activities, please come with us," said the police officer as he pushed the door open.
He flashed his badge and stepped forward to apprehend Gu Zhiyuan.
Gu Zhiyuan was somewhat dazed, and as he was taken away by the police, he felt a hate so intense he gritted his teeth, not even understanding why Ji Shunuan had suddenly changed.
In the past, she always protected Gu Corporation! She had spared no effort to smooth over all troubles for him.
Now, how had she become different.
At this moment, Gu Zhiyuan was on the verge of madness.
"Ji Shunuan, I hope you don't regret this." Gu Zhiyuan dropped these words before he was taken away.
Ji Shunuan did not even lift her head, fingers tapping quickly on the screen.
Soon after, a call from An Linlin came in. Though she was injured, it couldn't stop her from reveling in gossip, "Nuannuan, did you see the news?"
"That scumbag Gu Zhiyuan got arrested by the police," said An Linlin, her excitement nearly ripping her wounds open.
She was panting, unable to hide the excitement in her heart.
Ji Shunuan held her phone, lying on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling.
After a long while, she finally said in a low voice, "It was me who called the police."
"What?" An Linlin sounded stunned.
Her own puzzlement deepened, scratching her head in confusion, she lowered her voice to ask, "Why did you suddenly move against the Gu Family? Even if you broke up, you've always been someone who keeps up appearances."
Ji Shunuan was silent for a long time.
Her gaze was somewhat vacant as she turned her head to look at the glaring sunlight outside the window, a flicker of confusion also passing through her eyes.
"I suspect that all these years, the Gu Family has been using me, eyeing the assets left by my mother. So the kindness Old Master Gu showed my mother with that single meal was a lie."
"My mother died, and apart from Old Master Gu, no one knew! All these years, he kept mouthing off about that meal he once gave my mother."
"I had someone investigate recently. When my mother was about to give birth to me, Old Master Gu was not in Jincheng," Ji Shunuan's voice turned cold as frost.
She detested liars and users the most.
For a full 23 years! She had regarded the Gu Family as the savior that allowed her mother to survive.
All these years, apart from studying, she was diligently striving, wholeheartedly battling for Gu Corporation, which melded into a significant part of her lifeblood.
"Damn! I always thought your dad and that stepmom were disgusting enough, but the Gu Family… Nuannuan! If this is true, then we absolutely can't let the Gu Family off!" An Linlin was so angry she clenched her teeth.
Ji Shunuan, listening to her ranting, couldn't help but curve her lips into a faint smile.
She and An Linlin had met in high school, and from there, they became best friends! After Ji Shunuan graduated from college, An Linlin even unstintingly supported her, contributing to the success of some projects at Gu Corporation.
After hanging up the phone, Ji Shunuan closed her eyes, her mind exceptionally clear as she sorted through her thoughts.
"Ring," her phone rang once again.
Ji Shunuan turned her head, staring at the vibrating number on the screen for a long time before picking up.
"What is it?" Ji Shunuan asked, her voice low.
She tiredly rubbed her brows, and the person on the other end said, "President Ji! You need to come back quickly, or the state-owned enterprise project will fall through."
"I'm not coming back. From now on, there's no need to contact me regarding any business with Gu Corporation," Ji Shunuan said indifferently.

She hung up the phone directly and tossed it aside.
Just as she was preparing to get out of bed to use the bathroom, she saw the nurse coming in to check the room. Seeing her struggling, the nurse immediately ran over to assist her while asking in confusion, "Eh, Miss Ji, where's your boyfriend?"
"Who?" Ji Shunuan's face was full of question marks.
Her delicate little face was full of confusion, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes widened, looking at the young nurse with some difficulty in understanding.
The nurse carefully helped her sit up, tenderly asking, "Do you need to use the restroom? You've got an injury on your leg, it's better not to get out of bed."
"Hiss, it's okay." Ji Shunuan grimaced in pain as she climbed up, but as soon as her foot touched the ground, the wound was pulled, causing her to let out a muffled groan.
Seeing this, the nurse pushed her back onto the bed.
"Don't move, I'll go find your boyfriend to carry you over!" the nurse said sternly.
The patient had been unconscious for three days after the car accident, and had just woken up. If she moved and aggravated her wound, there could be serious consequences, and the nurse would be responsible.
"No, can you find me a nursing assistant? I'll pay," said Ji Shunuan helplessly.
She still couldn't understand who the boyfriend the nurse kept mentioning was.
Seeing her blushing face, the nurse hastily covered her with the blanket and whispered, "Miss Ji, when you had your car accident, your boyfriend carried you rushing into the hospital, and he was so anxious he nearly ran into the operating room."
"Moreover, during your surgery he was anxiously waiting outside the whole time, and even when you were unconscious, he personally applied your medicine and brought in professionals to check your injuries."
"Those professionals, they are all from the capital! I heard they cost a million a day," the nurse said, her face full of envy.
After all, not everyone has a tall, hearty, and handsome boyfriend.
"..." Ji Shunuan fell silent.
Regarding her hospitalization, she really hadn't had the chance to ask more about it.
She hadn't expected Bo Jingcheng to go through so much trouble for her, even finding people from the capital to help, and he had never mentioned a word about it, even taking the blame for the car accident himself.
Thinking of this, a ripple spread through Ji Shunuan's heart.
"Sir, are you back?" The nurse heard footsteps behind her and quickly stepped forward to greet them.
Bo Jingcheng, hearing what she said in a low voice, lifted his gaze towards Ji Shunuan, nodded slightly, and only after seeing that did the nurse leave.
Ji Shunuan watched Bo Jingcheng walk over and before she could speak, he reached out to pull back the blanket, his strong arms encircling her to lift her up.
"What are you doing?" Ji Shunuan was taken aback.
As Bo Jingcheng carried her, her little face hit his chest, and she smelled the faint scent of mint on him, which was strangely pleasant.
Ji Shunuan was frightened but didn't dare to move much because of the injury on her body.
"Don't move," Bo Jingcheng said in a hoarse voice.
As he carried her to the restroom, Ji Shunuan was astonished! Then, guessing what was coming next, her little face blushed so much she wished she could crawl into a hole and hide.
Bo Jingcheng placed her on the toilet before turning around and walking away with big strides.
"Let me know when you're done; I'm right outside," said Bo Jingcheng in his husky voice.
The man didn't wait for her to respond before turning and walking out, and the moment the door closed, Ji Shunuan's entire face was as red as a cooked duck.
It was only after Bo Jingcheng carried her back to the bed that she remembered she had something to ask him, but as the words reached her lips, she pulled the blanket over her face and closed her eyes, drifting off to sleep.
Seeing her so embarrassed she couldn't show her face, he couldn't help but chuckle in a low voice.
"Hehe," Bo Jingcheng's lips curved, a smile forming as he turned to pick up his phone and called, saying in a deep voice, "Grandma, it's me."
