Chapter 377: Chapter 377 Son, Don’t Think About Surpassing Your Father (6)

Li Sitong took the document from her hand and glanced at her.

Gu Nuan felt he had been wanting to say something to her, so she asked softly, "Minister Li?"

"It’s nothing," Li Sitong lowered his eyes.

Up to now, Gu Nuan still didn’t know whether he was aware of her marriage to Xiao Yebai or not. It seemed like she had to ask Dabai at home, to find out whose side Li Sitong was really on.

After handing over the documents, Gu Nuan left Li Sitong’s office.

It seemed like no one in the company knew about the incident she had yesterday, except for Sister Yao. Sister Yao had sent her a text message asking about her condition. Gu Nuan replied saying that the police were still investigating.

It wasn’t until lunchtime when a shocking new piece of gossip exploded in the school’s circle of friends, pointing directly at Su Yixia:

——Do you know? Have you all heard? Our school’s campus beauty, department beauty, wasn’t she said to be the daughter of some company’s CEO? Her family is reportedly bankrupt all of a sudden.

——Really? I haven’t heard of such a thing at all! What exactly happened?

——It’s said that her family offended someone powerful and got secretly brought down!

——Nonsense. I have someone I know in the police station. They said it’s not like that. It was her father’s company doing something illegal and they got caught. Serves them right!

——What you’re talking about is so OUT, okay?

——What’s OUT?

Everyone questioned.

A classmate said mysteriously: The latest news is that Su Yixia, our campus beauty, has had an accident and has gone blind.

Gu Nuan was startled, then immediately thought of something and turned to Weibo to check her husband, Xiao Yebai’s account.

Xiao Yebai had been very quiet lately, not posting any sensational comments. A bunch of impatient fans were constantly shouting for him to make a statement.

Gu Nuan only knew that Dabai had been incredibly busy lately, hardly having time to rant online.

Looking back at her inbox, he hadn’t sent her any private messages either.

The more silent he was, the more certain she was, this had to be his doing.

Gu Nuan: ...

If Xiao Yebai were to say, in the world of men, they certainly have to be more ruthless than women.

What does it mean to bankrupt someone or send them to jail? Xiao Yebai only remembered how people always mocked his wife for being deaf.

This was what he hated the most! His wife, even if deaf, was the most wonderful deaf person in the world. This woman never wanted her own eyes to be blind. Now she’s done well, more wretched than his wife, unwanted by any man, and she ended up disabled just like his wife. Therefore, he had long said that she was a rose stuck in cow dung, yet she stubbornly refused to admit it.

Xiao Yebai was having his lunch at Dihao as usual. With his wife not at home, staying in that small apartment was unbearable, always fearing she wouldn’t come back.

But without his wife’s cooking, he could hardly swallow anything now.

Zang Xiaolian and Zhan Dapeng were indeed a bit anxious seeing him like this.

Xiao Yebai checked his phone every few seconds, as if gambling whether he would call her first, or if she would finally call him first?

But all that came was silence.

Suddenly, he lay down on the sofa and started to stare blankly at the ceiling.

Zang Xiaolian made him a cup of hawthorn tea to perk up his appetite and asked, "Second brother, with sister-in-law having incidents every other day, could it be—"

Xiao Yebai, of course, had people follow him everywhere, and he had also learned fencing and martial arts; it was not easy for anyone to touch him now. But Gu Nuan was different; she had no one around.
