Chapter 138: Chapter 138
Two hours after hanging up the phone, Gu Tiantian met Uncle Gu, Gu Qingfeng, in Zhang Yuexin’s hospital room.
Cheng Junnan called 120 and took Grandma Gu and Gu Tiantian.
Some doctors saw that Zhang Yuexin and Gu Liang were also injured, but Grandma Gu had a heart attack, which couldn’t be delayed for a moment, so she left in the ambulance.
It was the doctor accompanying them who called the hospital when Zhang Yuexin and Gu Liang arrived.
Seeing Gu Qingfeng as she entered, Gu Tiantian couldn’t quite describe her feelings.
She felt wronged, but at the same time, looking at the face of Gu Qingfeng that resembled her father’s by seventy percent, she felt sadness.
"Gu Tiantian, you still have the nerve to come here!"
Zhang Yuexin was hooked up to an IV, with a fractured shin and two broken ribs, lying on the hospital bed, glaring fiercely at Gu Tiantian.
Although her voice was sharp, it wasn’t very loud due to her weakness.
As for Gu Liang, he was in the nearby bed, having cried for a long time before finally falling asleep.
When Gu Tiantian came down, she happened to run into the doctor making rounds and asked about the situation. Gu Liang only had superficial injuries, nothing serious.
Hearing this, Gu Tiantian breathed a sigh of relief.
She was grateful to Uncle Gu.
If it hadn’t been for him taking the money from the aunt, her father wouldn’t have lasted another month.
Every time she thought about this, no matter how angry she was at Aunt Zhang Yuexin, she tried hard to endure it.
But this time, she really couldn’t bear it anymore.
As soon as Gu Tiantian shouted, Gu Qingfeng raised his hand and slapped toward her cheek.
Closing her eyes, Gu Tiantian waited for that slap to land.
However, someone was quicker than Gu Qingfeng and blocked his hand.
Applying some force, Gu Qingfeng staggered back several steps.
Looking at the finely dressed man standing by his niece, his brows were tightly furrowed.
Although unsure why Gu Tiantian would want to take that slap, Cheng Junnan spoke up first after pushing Gu Qingfeng aside.
"Uncle Gu, I’m Tian Tian’s friend. I suppose your wife hasn’t told you the reason this happened."
Although Gu Qingfeng was angry, knowing his wife’s temper, he still asked.
Listening to this, Zhang Yuexin was so infuriated that she cursed.
"You useless scoundrel, your wife and child were beaten , and you still stand there like a coward!"
"How did I end up marrying such a useless man!"
"I must have been blind!"
"Poor Liangliang... only nine years old and beaten senseless by his cousin’s boyfriend, still unconscious!"
"Why is my life so hard!"
Completely disregarding that she was in a hospital, Zhang Yuexin whimpered loudly, displaying her unreasonable and shrewish nature, crying out in pain.
It was after eight in the evening, and Zhang Yuexin wasn’t in a single ward, but a shared one with three beds. Besides her and Gu Liang each on one bed, a woman in her fifties occupied the third.
Listening to Zhang Yuexin’s lament, the woman looked at Gu Tiantian and Cheng Junnan like daggers, sharp and piercing.
Gu Tiantian couldn’t help but sneer; she didn’t want to dodge Uncle’s slap earlier because she thought of the kindness he showed her and her father back then.
But as for Zhang Yuexin... she had no feelings of kinship left.
Before Cheng Junnan could speak, Gu Tiantian coldly stared at Zhang Yuexin.
"Why doesn’t Aunt mention how it was at our home that you stressed Grandma so much that it triggered her heart attack?"
