Chapter 264 Gaining Mother Chi’s Trust
Su Ennuo left in a hurry with her bag. Gu Hanting and I stood there, not showing any intention of seeing him off.
I pretended to be angry until I heard the door close.
"You brought a girl home without telling me in advance."
"You are the hostess. We don't need to make a big fuss when we bring a stranger home. A simple reception will do."
I don’t know why, but the word “hostess” really hit me in the heart.
This instantly made the arrogance I had been pretending to have disappear, leaving only the pretentious Jing Chi.
"Wife, are you jealous?"
A handsome face suddenly enlarged.
I looked at that extremely handsome face, swallowed unnaturally, and slowly fell backwards.
"No.."
Maybe my mood was too obvious. As soon as I said this, Gu Hanting burst out laughing.
He looked at me with a teasing look.
"I didn't expect my wife to be jealous. Looks like I have to bring a few more people back to make you jealous, otherwise you won't see me every day."
These words made me feel very guilty. I have indeed put too much thought into the Chi family's affairs recently.
Even though I know that I have more important things to do, these things just take up a lot of my attention.
My originally pretty eyes were tinged with a hint of worry, but Gu Hanting opened his arms and hugged me tightly.
"But you don't have to worry about anything. I'm here to make you feel at ease. If I can't make you feel at ease, then there's no need for me to exist."
These words, which can be said to be relatively loyal, feel abrupt to me.
This was said by Gu Hanting. Until now, I still don’t understand when he fell in love with me.
He obviously cared a lot about my past self, at least that's what I thought.
The next day I went to the sanatorium again, and Chi's mother was waiting for me early.
After a few simple pleasantries and a few questions about her health, she hesitantly asked me how my meeting with Chi Yu went.
"It's fine... Actually, I am very concerned about your health, but I am afraid that you are still angry, so I dare not say it to you in person. I believe it will be fine after a while."
"What you said is true."
Her eyes were as cold as if she was guarding a prisoner, and all my guilt was reflected in her eyes.
In the end, I just grunted twice and turned my head away.
"My dear daughter, your mother has not raised you in vain."
I knew that the true situation had reached her ears, so why shouldn't I pretend to be a well-behaved, obedient and sensible person at this time?
At least it can make her feel more at ease with me.
In the following few days, I went to see Chi Yu every day without fail.
Whenever she saw my face, she would show her hatred, and naturally the same insults happened every day.
It's already the fourth day.
"Mom, I have a lot of things to take care of for the wedding recently. I really don't have time to persuade my sister every day."
My eyes were slightly red, and in Chi's mother's eyes, I looked so pitiful.
She didn't force me.
"Ah."
"By the way, Mom, I found a stylist specifically for your wedding. I want to dress you up nicely on that day."
"Wedding stylist?"
Chi's mother, whose face is disfigured, is now very concerned about her face. When she heard the word "stylist", her tone became noticeably higher.
"Mom, don't worry. I will make sure you appear elegant and presentable on the wedding day. This stylist is very experienced."
In fact, I think there is a saying in the TV series that is very true: No one will remember the icing on the cake, but the love is deep when sending charcoal in the snow.
In order to reassure him, I made an appointment with a stylist to come to his house in the afternoon.
"Mom, I have something else to do. The stylist is here. I have to leave first."
After checking the time on my watch, I didn't give Chi's mother a chance to reject me and left in a hurry.
"How did you come?"
Qin Feng called me and said that today is the deadline for criminal detention of the perpetrator.
Chi Xi has a strong intention to settle the matter privately.
My appearance disrupted Chi Xi's plan.
"This man hit my mother like that, how can I just let it go so easily?"
"Mom, isn't she still alive?"
Chi Xi pushed me back hard, and I immediately staggered two steps.
A strong shoulder behind me supported my arm.
Qin Feng walked out of the interrogation room with a microphone on his head.
I saw him take it off cleanly and naturally and walk in front of Chi Xi and me.
"Ms. Chi, although you are a direct relative of the victim, Miss Chi Xi was also one of the parties involved at the time, so we have to put her opinion first. If she does not agree to settle the matter privately, this matter will still not be resolved."
Been locked up for several days.
The perpetrator looked in our direction with an impatient look, and I felt a particularly eerie feeling on my back when he looked at Chi Yu.
"What do you want, your family? I've already paid the compensation, but now I have to go through the legal process. There's no end in sight!"
The victim hadn't said a word yet, he hadn't expected the perpetrator to be so rampant.
Qin Feng just went around it.
"We just released you, but before you receive our notice, you are absolutely not allowed to leave the province, and it's best not to leave the city at all."
Qin Feng's warning made the perpetrator look very dissatisfied. He just agreed vaguely and was about to leave. I hurried forward and grabbed him.
"There must be an explanation for this matter today. I have hired a lawyer and I want to sue you."
"Why hire a lawyer? This was just an accident."
When Chi Yu heard that I wanted to hire a lawyer, she quickly rushed forward and stood between me and the man.
"Whether this was an accident or not, I must seek justice for my mother. Sister, I know you want to quickly resolve this matter so that my mother can relax, but what my mother wants now is a trial for her and to send him to jail!"
The word "going to jail" seemed to have irritated the other party. The perpetrator took several steps back and kept a safe distance from me for a while.
"It was just an accident. Besides, the car has been taken away by the vehicle management office for scrapping. This kind of situation will never happen again. I have already compensated you. What else do you want?"
"You are not willing to send even a scrapped car to us for disposal, which shows that your family is not well-off. But now you are offering us 20 yuan in compensation. Maybe this is a murder for hire, so I will never let it go."
