Chapter 33 The Mysterious Original Female Lead
"Lu Wenli," Chang Xi frowned, "slap him on the back."
Lu Wenli swiftly struck Gu Qingfeng's back with eight-tenths of his strength.
The latter lunged forward, spitting out a black substance mixed with foul-smelling blood.
Gu Qingfeng fell into Lu Wenli's arms, took a few deep breaths, and slowly opened her eyes.
"She's awake! She's awake!" Tang Wan exclaimed with a beaming smile.
Gu Qingfeng opened his eyes and the first thing he saw was the face of his mortal enemy, Lu Wenli, which was only an inch away from him. He was so frightened that his soul almost left his body.
He shoved the man away and cowered in the corner of the bed. "What the hell! Are you crazy?! Who told you to come to my house?!"
Lu Wenli stumbled from the push and said irritably, "Do you think I care? If it weren't to save your life, who would want to hug you?"
"You're still holding me, how disgusting!"
No one would be happy to wake up and find themselves being held in the arms of their mortal enemy.
Tang Wan and Gu Ruqin came forward to surround him and ask him how he was doing.
Gu Hongwen and Gu Qingheng stood behind them, and although they didn't say anything, the worry in their eyes was unmistakable.
Chang Xi squatted down, staring at the slowly wriggling, strangely shaped black worms in the filthy blood.
This thing looks familiar.
This insect has been described in the library of Mount Libra.
Gu Qingheng was the first to react, glancing at the insect and asking, "Miss Chang, what is this?"
"It looks like a Gu worm," Chang Xi said, since she didn't have anything suitable to put the worm in. "Can I take this worm back to study it?"
"Of course," Gu Ruqin said angrily. "Miss Chang, who is so vicious as to use something like this to harm my second brother?"
"Who knows?" Chang Xi really didn't know who did it. She only had a vague understanding of insects and would have to take them back to study them to find out what happened.
Gu Qingfeng sat in the living room and listened to his family explain before he understood what was going on.
Gu Qingheng found a glass jar in the kitchen so that Lu Wenli could put the Gu worms in it.
Ran Qingqing, sitting next to Gu Qingfeng, couldn't help but glance at them from time to time.
"Miss Chang, please have a seat," Tang Wan said with unusual enthusiasm, gesturing for Chang Xi to sit beside her. "Where are you from?"
This was originally Gu Ruqin's seat, but a hint of embarrassment flashed in her eyes, and she sat down to the side.
"A rural resident of G Province," Chang Xi said, referring to the original owner's ID card, feeling quite uncomfortable with this sudden closeness.
What do your parents do?
"I am an orphan," Chang Xi said.
Tang Wan felt a pang of pain in her heart and quickly said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know."
"It's okay."
Gu Ruqin looked at Gu Qingfeng with a worried expression. "Second brother, you scared me to death. When my mother and I went to Wudang to have Master Feng tell Qingdai's fortune, we heard him say that you might be in mortal danger."
We had just received news that Qingdai was still alive when we got a call from my older brother saying you'd been in a car accident. We were terrified. Qingqing, in particular, has been crying non-stop.
Gu Qingfeng glanced to the side and met his future girlfriend's red and swollen eyes. He immediately felt sorry for her and gently comforted her, "Qingqing, you've worked so hard. I'm all better now, don't worry."
"Well, it's good that you're alright," Ran Qingqing smiled brightly, but her eyes unconsciously drifted to the glass jar in Lu Wenli's hand.
Although Gu Qingfeng disliked Lu Wenli, Lu Wenli had just saved him, so he could tolerate him for a while.
"Sit here for a while, have a meal together, and then you can leave."
Rarely hearing Gu Qingfeng say something pleasing to the ear, Lu Wenli walked over, holding the glass jar in his hand.
His toe kicked something, and he suddenly fell forward.
He smashed the glass jar in his hand to the ground. The Gu worm broke out of the jar but was unable to escape. It was crushed to death by Lu Wenli's elbow as he fell to the ground.
Chang Xi, sitting next to Tang Wan, seemed to sense something and looked over in their direction.
Ran Qingqing let out a scream first and shrank into Gu Qingfeng's arms.
Gu Qingfeng only had time to protect her and didn't have a chance to check on Lu Wenli's condition.
Lu Wenli let out a low growl, pressing his elbow against the shards of glass, blood seeping through his shirt.
"Quick! Call the private doctor over here!" Gu Hongwen ordered the servants to hurry and fetch the doctor.
The flying glass shards also cut Ran Qingqing's calf.
What a show!
While the two were tending to their wounds, and while Gu's parents instructed the servants to prepare dinner, Chang Xi spoke with Gu Qingfeng alone for a while.
Gu Qingfeng scratched the back of his head, looking embarrassed. "Thank you, Chang Xi. My brother told me that we owe you a lot this time, otherwise I would have been harmed."
Have you offended anyone?
"No, I haven't offended anyone. My brother suspects it might be the work of Gu Group's competitors. I'll be more careful in the future."
Chang Xi, however, said, "The Gu Group's rivals are all business partners. Unless they're close to you, this kind of 'Gu worm' wouldn't have a chance to infect you. Perhaps there's someone strange around you. Think carefully, have you encountered any unusual people recently?"
Gu Qingfeng thought carefully, then pointed to her in front of him, "You are the most special person I have met in the first twenty-three years of my life."
She took a deep breath and could only offer another hint, "I'm asking, besides me, who else is at fault? Like someone you're very close to."
Looking back, Qingfeng understood who she was referring to.
"Impossible," he said with absolute certainty. "Qingqing would never do such a thing. She is a very kind and innocent person. That's why she was bullied by other people in the entertainment industry before, and that's why you bullied her."
Ok?
Do you want to listen to what you're saying?
Given the original owner's attitude of "it's good to be alive and it's okay to die," why would she bully Ran Qingqing?
It's not like I've eaten too many salted eggs and am just bored.
"I know you've been a little anxious because you haven't become famous in the past two years, but no matter how anxious you are, you can't slander others," Gu Qingfeng earnestly advised her. "You saved my life, and I will repay your kindness."
"If you renew your contract with the company, I'll give you a lot of resources and definitely make you a star, okay?"
Forget it, there's no point in talking to an idiot.
Chang Xi sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation. "I've said my piece. Believe it or not."
The Gu family members sat in a row in the living room, waiting for them.
Lu Wenli smiled and declined, "No need, Uncle Gu and Aunt Tang, my home is just ahead, my parents are calling me home for dinner."
"Let's go, Lu Wenli," Chang Xi said, pulling on the back of his collar.
Tang Wan stood up in a hurry, almost knocking over the chair behind her.
"Are you leaving already? Aren't you staying for dinner?"
Tang Wan was very different today. Her gaze seemed glued to Chang Xi, and she couldn't look away. Her enthusiasm was somewhat inappropriate.
When Gu Hongwen saw Chang Xi's eyes, he understood why Tang Wan was acting strangely.
The couple's missing youngest daughter, Gu Qingdai, had amber eyes.
"No, farewell," Chang Xi nodded politely, without lingering.
Lu Wenli said as he stepped out of the Gu family's house, "I'm so sorry, Master. It's all my fault for being clumsy and breaking the jar, crushing the Gu worm. Does this mean we'll never know the origin of that Gu worm?"
