didn't want to continue talking with the old man, so she turned around and was about to walk out of the study."Wait for me." The old man called out to him again."Is there anything else"The old man loo...A scream echoed, and gradually everyone started gathering around.

Some people anxiously called for a doctor, while others gossiped and argued. The thick smell of blood gradually permeated the air, sending shivers down everyone's spine.

"Ranran, what happened" Gong Shulan also heard Shen Ningran's scream over there.

Shen Ningran reacted from the shock, stared at the front several hundred meters away and said: "Mom, someone jumped off the building."

Gong Shulan listened, only silent for two seconds. She didn't seem surprised; as if she had known something all along, her voice was calm: "Then go home quickly. Don't get involved in this kind of commotion."

Because it happened right at the hospital entrance, doctors and nurses came out very quickly. The person who jumped from the building was covered in blood and carried away on a stretcher.

The metallic scent of blood swept across Shen Ningran's nose, causing her to involuntarily furrow her brows. She raised her gaze and looked towards the stretcher where a person lay with their eyes tightly shut, their face covered in blood.

Despite this, Shen Ningran still recognized the person on the stretcher at a glance.

It's Pei Zhen!

Shen Ningran's eyelids trembled slightly. As the doctor and nurse carried someone past her, Shen Ningran frowned and said, "Wait."

She placed her hand on Pei Zhen's pulse, and after just two seconds, Shen Ningran slowly withdrew her hand, shaking her head. "It's no use," she said.

No pulse, head strike the ground, no chance of survival.

Gu Gengting heard people discussing all the way that someone had jumped off a building. His heart skipped a beat. When he came out of the elevator, he saw a crowd gathered there, with several doctors and nurses carrying a stretcher at the front.

Gu Gengting's hands on both sides clenched tighter, wanting to see clearly the person on the stretcher.

He stiffened, reaching out to brush the hair from the man's face, revealing a visage flushed with blood yet undeniably familiar.

Pei Zhen.

Gu Gengting's hand trembled violently, unable to believe his eyes for a moment.

He opened his mouth, but his throat felt like something was stuck in it. He couldn't make a sound.

The crowd surrounding them was still buzzing with chatter. Gu Gengting raised his eyes to look around, his gaze finally settling on Shen Ningran.

Pei Zhen was carried away by the doctor, and the crowd gradually dispersed. The surroundings gradually became quiet.

Gu Gengting stared intently at Shen Ningran and asked, "Are you satisfied"

Shen Ningran pursed her lips.

Gu Gengting felt deep remorse in his heart. He was still one step too late.

If he had seen Pei Zhen's abnormality just now, he would have stopped it, this kind of thing wouldn't have happened at all.

On the phone, Gong Shulan also heard Gu Gengting's question. She spoke to Shen Ningran and said, "Ningning, go home first."

After hanging up the phone, Gong Shulan's phone rang next.

Gu Gengting glanced at his phone, holding it for a long time. He answered the call, his voice low and heavy, "Gong Shulan, Pei Zhen is dead, are you satisfied"

Gong Shulan's voice was icy, with a hint of sarcasm. "Are you satisfied I am not."

Gu Gengting took a deep breath, "When did you become so ruthless"

When did you become so ruthless

Gu Shulan wanted to laugh a little.

It turns out she's always been too kind, so he never really saw her for who she was.

Gu Gengting, Ranran is my only daughter. When Pei Zhen planned to harm her, she had no way out.

"It wasn't her, but her daughter. That's how it is." Gu Gengting smiled in pain. "You threatened her with her daughter, and if she doesn't die, Lin Yimi will die. Palace Shulan, what a good tactic."

Compared to her, I'm still far behind.

So she's dead, will you let it go now

Palace Shu Lan listened to Gu Geng Ting's icy, chilling voice, fell silent for a few seconds before continuing, "This isn't up to me."

Palace Shu Lan believes this matter is not over yet.

Palace Shu Lan hung up the phone, Gu Geng Ting clenched his phone, standing alone in place for a long time.

Shen Ningran returned home, Gong Shulan was already sitting in the living room waiting for her, Jiang Li didn't know when she came, and now she was also sitting in the living room.

"Ranran, you're back," Jiang Li got up and ran towards Shen Ningran. Seeing Shen Ningran's complexion wasn't good, Jiang Li was a little worried, "Ranran, are you alright"

Shen Ningran pursed her lips and shook her head slightly.

"Mom."

"Come sit down."

Shen Ningran glanced upstairs, "Yuchen, Hexe, are you back"

I have already sent people to bring them back, they just went upstairs to sleep.

Shen Ningran nodded and sat down beside Gong Shulan.

"Scared" Gong Shulan looked at Shen Ningran's expression and asked.

"It wasn't that scary, probably just because I've had a lot going on lately and I'm a little tired."

"When you're tired, rest more and don't overthink things. I'll take care of the child tonight, you go upstairs to rest." Gong Shulan gently persuaded Shen Ningran.

"Yes, yes, Ranran, don't think too much about it. I'll stay with you tonight, come on." Jiang Li helped Shen Ningran up. "Auntie Lan, good night."

"Well, go ahead."

After walking up a few steps, Shen Ningran turned back to look at Gong Shulan.

"Mom, about what happened this evening between you and Gu Gengting…"

Looking at Shen Ningran, Gong Shulan's lips twitched slightly, a faint smile appearing on her face. "The relationship between us wasn't good to begin with, it just wouldn't be much different if it got any worse. What difference does it make Go rest."

Shen Ning lightly pulled at her lips and went upstairs with Jiang Li.

After washing up, the two lay in bed. Jiang Li propped her chin up and watched Shen Ningran's thoughtful expression.

"Rǎn Rǎn"

"Hmm."

"Are you still thinking about what happened at the hospital Auntie Lan just told me, Pei Zhen deserved it. She should have thought about this when she hurt you." Jiang Li said indignantly.

If Pei Zhen and the others hadn't hired someone to assassinate Shen Ningran beforehand, how would they have ended up like this

They all got what they deserved.

"I'm thinking that Pei Zhen is dead, and from now on there will be a life between my mother and Gu Gengting. They won't divorce and will always torture each other."

And, Pei Zhen was a smart person. Even if she really were going to die, she wouldn't die for nothing.lutching his collar, a smile playing on his lips despite not being angry. "Fine, I promise not to touch her."Palace Shu Lan then stopped."But if I don't tie her up, how will you get to see her""Let me...
