After divorcing the mute girl, President Gu knelt down and begged for reconciliation.

Chapter 71 Do Not Disturb Each Other
Gu Xijue took a few steps forward and stood by the bed. Su Ruoya leaned weakly against him, her voice hoarse: "Xijue, I don't want to put you in a difficult position. Miss Song is still your wife in name only. If this gets out of hand, the Gu family and you will both be disgraced..."

She looked up at him with teary eyes, as if waiting for an explanation.

When Gu Xijue heard her say this, he frowned deeply and looked at Su Ruoya, who was pale and haggard: "Ruoya, you don't need to worry about this. The police are investigating, and the truth will come out soon."

Su Ruoya was stunned. She didn't expect that the police hadn't closed the case yet. Could it be that she left something at the crime scene that got her caught?

"Xi Jue, the Gu family will be gossiped about because of her. It's okay if I suffer a little grievance. Look, I'm still alive and well, it's alright..."

What she wanted was for Gu Xijue to feel guilty and soften his heart, which is why he kept saying nice things about Song Jin'an.

Gu Xijue looked at her, his deep eyes like an abyss, unfathomable: "Ruoya, you should rest well. I will not tolerate this matter."

He stayed with Su Ruoya at the hospital for a while longer before leaving.

Because he also had questions for Song Jin'an, when he returned to the villa and confronted her, his face darkened as he looked at her: "Song Jin'an, haven't I given you enough?"

"Even now, Ruoya is still speaking well of you and trying to drop the case, and you, what a vicious woman you are!"

"You've hurt her time and time again, what exactly do you want to do!" In Gu Xijue's eyes, Song Jin'an was a greedy woman who couldn't enjoy a good life and insisted on trampling on his bottom line time and time again. Now she even dared to use a knife to hurt someone!

Song Jin'an's shoulders ached from his forceful grip, but she was too lazy to explain anymore. The man in front of her was blind and irrational.

Her body and soul were already covered in wounds. She raised her head, her reddened eyes staring straight at him.

—Gu Xijue, just consider it as me maliciously hurting Su Ruoya time and time again. Anyway, I really hate her!

After gesturing, she smiled, but the lines on her lips were dry, like someone starving in the desert.

—Are you satisfied with what I've said?
Gu Xijue stared at her coldly, his deep eyes unfathomable, as if he would strangle her at any moment!
The expression on his face seemed to want to tear her apart, but Song Jin'an just looked at him quietly, and then, as if remembering something, she began to gesture.

"I have brought shame to the Gu family this time, which is the best reason for you to kick me out. I can leave with nothing, but I beg you, give Tangtang to me. You will have many more children in the future, but Tangtang is my only daughter. As long as you let me take her away, I will do anything."

She gestured for a long time, but Gu Xijue didn't say a word. Seeing that he didn't speak, Song Jin'an humbly gestured again.

—Gu Xijue, I'm begging you this time. If you want me to kneel, I'll kneel down right now, just please give me the child.

Gu Xijue sneered repeatedly, his expression hardening: "Do you think you can take Gu Hetang away? Where are you taking her? Do you expect to take her to prison?"

"Song Jin'an, you're as stupid as a pig! Do you know you've broken the law? If the police investigate and file a case, you'll face at least three years in prison!"

After saying that, he coldly glared at the woman in front of him, watching her fall to the ground.

The room was eerily quiet. The man had a tense expression on his face before finally slamming the door and leaving.

Three years in prison, she can't...

Tangtang, she still has a daughter, she can't, she can't go to prison! After this incident, Song Jin'an had been somewhat listless for the past few days, temporarily forgetting that she had a baby girl to feed. At this moment, Gu Xijue pulled her thoughts back.

She must clear her name, or what will happen to her daughter?
Song Jin'an got up from the ground and cheered herself up. At that moment, Lin Ma came over carrying Gu Hetang.

"Mommy mommy……"

Gu Hetang was very clever. He wanted his mother to hold him and kept reaching out to Song Jin'an.

At dinner time, the table was quiet. Song Jin'an fed Gu Hetang. The little guy loved eating the food that Lin Ma made. While enjoying his mother feeding him, he contentedly ate with his little spoon.

After everyone finished eating, Gu Xijue showed no intention of getting up from the table, while Song Jin'an was cleaning up the mess left by Gu Hetang's food. Neither of them said a word, and everyone in the house was doing their own thing, without disturbing each other.

That evening, Song Jin'an gave Gu Hetang a bath and put him to sleep before quietly leaving the children's room and closing the door.

At this moment, Gu Xijue was smoking at the door. He only glanced at her before turning around and entering the study. Song Jin'an understood that his glance meant he wanted her to come into the study, so she followed him into the study.

Song Jin'an thought that she wanted to have a calm talk with Gu Xi, just for the sake of her daughter.

Once inside the study, they raised their hands and quickly began to communicate.

—Su Ruoya's testimony is completely different from mine, right?
Even a fool could imagine what Su Ruoya's expression was like when she said those words.

Gu Xijue nodded, his face dark and he seemed extremely tired, while Song Jin'an pursed her lips and stared straight into the man's eyes.

Do you really trust her completely? Do you believe everything she says is true? Do you trust her 100%?

In fact, Song Jin'an could sense that the man in front of her did not completely trust Su Ruoya, otherwise he would not have let her into the study after his outburst, but instead dragged her directly to the police station.

Gu Xijue lit another cigarette, and white smoke swirled between the two of them.

Song Jin'an stared straight at him, waiting for the so-called answer he was about to give.

However, Gu Xijue remained silent, as if the whole affair had nothing to do with him. But Song Jin'an understood that at this moment, he must be extremely conflicted, even though he only believed one percent of himself.

"She said she wanted to drop the case."

As Gu Xijue spoke with a frown, Song Jin'an's heart sank, leaving her with only a sense of grievance, though not a strong one. After all, she understood that grievances only had an effect in front of someone she loved; in front of someone she didn't love, they would only elicit disgust.

Song Jin'an looked at him and gestured again, this time with great anger.

—What, she still wants to pretend to be a good person even now?

She originally thought that Su Ruoya wanted her to go to prison, but now it seems that she just wanted to gain Gu Xijue's pity and affection. But is it too crazy to gamble with one's life?
