Chapter 1140: Please Call Me Nan Mengyu
Gu Dongxing looked coldly at Ye Qing: "You said my mother committed suicide out of shame—was that something someone told you, or did you witness it yourself? Aren’t you supposed to be in a mental hospital? How did you witness my mother committing suicide then?"
Speaking of this, Ye Qing was also depressed. That day, she poisoned Hai Xue; it was her first time killing someone, and at the time, she was truly panicked.
After killing her, she initially ran away, but then remembered that crucial evidence was still inside the house, forcing her to go back to retrieve it, and then she fled again.
Later she realized she should have hidden Hai Xue’s "corpse" to prevent anyone from finding it. However, when she returned to the compound again, she found that Hai Xue’s "corpse" was missing!
Despite her panic, checking Hai Xue’s pulse twice had assured her that Hai Xue was indeed beyond dead.
Hence, she suppressed her panic, curled her lips into a smile and said, "Since you say she didn’t commit suicide, then call her out for everyone to see."
Hai Xue was already dead, even if they found the body, it would still be a lifeless corpse.
She had just exposed that Hai Xue committed suicide out of shame because Gu Dongxing abandoned his childhood betrothal to pursue ties with the Nan Family’s prominent status. If Gu Dongxing couldn’t bring out Hai Xue, wouldn’t that prove her words were true?
Moreover, she still had those videotapes that proved Hai Xue indeed had suicidal tendencies.
At this moment, a voice as clear as a wood thrush rang out: "Ye Qing, you’re so eager to see Aunt Hai; is it just to check whether she was poisoned to death by you?"
Upon hearing this voice, everyone turned toward De Yue Building, where two women were seen walking out, moving step by step toward where everyone had gathered.
The two women, one around forty and the other around seventeen or eighteen, approached with a grace that seemed to make each step blossom like lotus flowers.
A gasp arose among the crowd: the young girl was stunningly beautiful, her appearance truly unmatched!
Hai Xue was considered a beauty, but the moment Mengyu stood beside her, she was instantly outshone.
Seeing the two women, Gu Dongxing quickly went up to them: "Mom, Xiao Meng, why are you also out here?"
The crowd realized the elegant middle-aged woman was Gu Dongxing’s mother.
Everyone turned to look at Ye Qing; here stood his mother, perfectly fine—where was the talk of suicide?
Ye Qing was utterly terrified upon seeing Hai Xue: Could this be a ghost?
No, it’s broad daylight now, not to mention it’s close to noon when the yang energy is strongest, how could ghosts appear at this time?
Her eyes were fixed on Hai Xue: "No, impossible, it can’t be; you were definitely dead, I touched you, you definitely had no pulse, you were definitely dead. How could you still be alive? You’re a ghost, you’re a ghost, a ghost!"
Terrified, she stumbled backward, and turned to flee, but someone caught hold of her.
Everyone saw that the person holding Ye Qing was the beautiful 17 or 18-year-old girl.
"Ye Qing, don’t use shock as a pretext to escape. You won’t get away!"
"Jiang Mengyu, you—" Ye Qing was both sad and angry.
With Hai Xue’s sudden appearance, she realized she had failed today, and thus needed to escape immediately, while everyone’s attention was on Hai Xue.
But Jiang Mengyu, this unbearable woman, kept her watchful eyes on her; she was already so miserable, and yet Mengyu wouldn’t let her go!
Mengyu smiled slightly: "I have acknowledged my father and changed my surname to Nan. I am now called Nan Mengyu! So, Miss Ye Qing, please call me Nan Mengyu!"
