Chapter 39

Qi Shaoze was stunned. He saw the serious look on Gu Qingcheng’s face.

He frowned and tried to recall if his memory of Huo Sicheng was wrong.

After all, Gu Qingcheng’s sudden seriousness meant that she was already half-convinced by his words. All she needed was an affirmative answer.

However, he started boxing many years ago. He had heard Gu Qingcheng mention her arch-enemy, Huo Sicheng.

However, he had only heard of him and did not know him, so he would not deepen his memory of him.

If he hadn’t found out that Gu Qingcheng was married to Huo Sicheng, he wouldn’t have wanted to meet her at all, not to mention that Huo Sicheng had cheated on his wife and made Gu Qingcheng a cuckold.

Because of Huo Sicheng’s affair, he wanted to get to know this Young Master Huo. Coincidentally, Huo Sicheng was on the hot search list, so he saw his appearance.

Huo Sicheng was handsome, the kind of handsome that people would never forget.

Especially Huo Sicheng’s temperament, was fierce, domineering, and full of danger, which was why he felt familiar when he saw the photo.

He thought for a long time before he remembered that he had seen Huo Sicheng boxing in the boxing gym. That skill was definitely fresh in his mind.

However, it had been a long time, and Gu Qingcheng had said that Huo Sicheng was a disabled person in a wheelchair. He couldn’t match up to the Huo Sicheng in his memory.

Although he felt that it wasn’t worth it for his precious Gu Qingcheng to marry a man like Huo Sicheng, who was unfaithful to his marriage, he still had to think carefully about whether he had made a mistake and mistook her for the wrong person.

Seeing Qi Shaoze’s deep thoughts, Gu Qingcheng said in a low voice, “This is no small matter. You have to be 100% sure before you can answer me.”

She had known Huo Sicheng since she was young. He was always in a wheelchair. How could he be a healthy man?

It was obviously impossible for an able person to stay in a wheelchair for more than ten years.

If Huo Sicheng was in the same boxing gym as her, she would have seen him once.

Even if Huo Sicheng was not disabled, why would he go to the boxing gym where she practiced boxing?

Had he been spying on her?

Or did he want to know about her daily life abroad and what she was doing?

In short, no matter how she thought about it, Qi Shaoze had mistaken her for someone else.

Although Qi Shaoze was a sloppy and reliable person, she still believed him to some extent, but not entirely.

“This…” Qi Shaoze thought for a long time before saying, “I’m not sure. Because it has been too long, I might have remembered wrongly.”

Gu Qingcheng wiped away the last bit of trust she had in Qi Shaoze.

As expected, he remembered wrongly.

She knew it. If Huo Sicheng was healthy, why would he sit in a wheelchair for no reason? Walking with two healthy legs was definitely more comfortable than sitting in a wheelchair.

Moreover, he was not in a wheelchair, so no one would say that he was disabled. He could have a better life instead of being despised by others for being disabled.

Seeing Gu Qingcheng roll her eyes at him, Qi Shaoze quickly said, “I’m not sure. But you can test Huo Sicheng. Anyway, you won’t lose anything if you try him.”

“I’ll try it when I’m bored,” Gu Qingcheng replied casually.

Qi Shaoze could tell that Gu Qingcheng didn’t take it seriously at all, but he still tried to persuade her, “I suggest you take Huo Sicheng seriously and find a way to test him.”

Gu Qingcheng replied perfunctorily, “I know, I know.”

Since Qi Shaoze had said that, it was all up to Gu Qingcheng whether she wanted to try or not.

“Oh right, there’s one more thing I want to tell you.” He took out a photo and a note from his pocket and handed them to Gu Qingcheng. “Chu He went to this place and met this person.”

Gu Qingcheng took the photo. It was of a middle-aged woman dressed in luxurious clothes, but she didn’t recognize her.

“I’ve checked. This woman used to be a hospital nurse. Her name is Yuan Qiaolan.” Qi Shaoze explained to Gu Qingcheng, “Suddenly, her husband made a lot of money from his business, so she resigned from the hospital and became a wealthy lady.”

“What?” Gu Qingcheng’s heart skipped a beat. “Was the hospital she used to work at Jing Han Private Hospital?” she asked.

“How did you know about Jing Han Private Hospital?” Qi Shaoze asked Gu Qingcheng in surprise, “I’ve checked this hospital. It has the most advanced equipment and famous doctors from all over the world. Their patients were either rich or noble. Nurses were also selected through various strict examinations. Therefore, for a person who can be a nurse in such a good unit, suddenly quitting and giving up such a good career is the worst choice…”

Qi Shaoze was still chattering beside Gu Qingcheng, but her head was buzzing, and her head was getting worse. She couldn’t help but tremble.

The hospital where her mother, Mu Xia, had been recuperating was Jing Han Private Hospital.

This reminded her of the seed of doubt she had planted in Chu He’s heart when she returned to the Gu family. Her goal was to force Chu He to reveal the clues so that she could investigate her mother’s death.

Just as she had expected, after Chu He heard her words, she really went to see Yuan Qiaolan.

However, she did not expect her to act so quickly. It seemed that Chu He was afraid that she would find out the truth.

As for Yuan Qiaolan’s resignation, instead of saying that her husband had made money from his business, it was more accurate to say that Yuan Qiaolan had listened to Chu He’s orders and killed her mother, Mu Xia, and received a considerable reward.

In this world, only the dead could not speak. Yuan Qiaolan must have thought of a way to threaten Chu He if she was still alive. Otherwise, Chu He would have killed Yuan Qiaolan long ago to eliminate future troubles.

Fortunately, Yuan Qiaolan was still alive, so she had a chance to avenge her mother. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for her to investigate the cause of her mother’s death.

“You’ve worked hard. You’re the best.” She praised Qi Shaoze and reminded him, “Continue to send people to keep an eye on Chu He. Inform me immediately if there’s any news.”

Qi Shaoze smiled happily at Gu Qingcheng’s compliment.

“Don’t worry, I’ve been sending people to keep an eye on Chu He.”

At this moment, the nurse came in with breakfast, followed by a doctor.

Gu Qingcheng, who was about to speak to Qi Shaoze, saw the doctor arrive. Thoughts flashed in her eyes, and she asked immediately, “May I ask how I got to the hospital?”

She liked to be clear about everything and did not like to be muddleheaded.

When she woke up and found herself lying on the hospital bed, Qi Shaoze did not send her there, which made her very confused.

She did not understand why she, who had accompanied her mother in the rain in the cemetery last night, would wake up in the hospital.

Faced with Gu Qingcheng’s question, the doctor who was taking her temperature wanted to tell her the truth.

The words were on the tip of his tongue, but the doctor remembered that he had been warned not to tell her about his visit to the hospital.

For his own safety and to abide by the confidentiality agreement, the doctor said gently to Gu Qingcheng, “You came to the hospital on your own.”

“On my own?” Gu Qingcheng frowned. “Are you sure?”
