Chapter 27: Xia Shengsheng Jumps off the Cliff

Nan Jiangnan looked at the Gu family in front of him. Although he sympathized with her as a woman and had only one daughter, Xia Shengsheng, kindness to the enemy was cruelty to oneself. Nan Jiangnan finally lowered his eyes and said, "I'm sorry. Sister Gu, it’s not that I’m heartless.”

Mrs. Gu was stunned for a moment, looked up at her, and finally nodded clearly: "It's my aunt who is giving you a hard time."

There was determination in Mrs. Gu's eyes. Nan Jiangnan looked at her, and her heart skipped a beat.

I saw Mrs. Gu walking towards the crowd, her knees softened, and she knelt down: "I did all this!"

"It's all because of me. I was obsessed. I saw that Nan Jiangnan's business was doing better than me, and I felt jealous. That's why I made a big mistake!" Mrs. Gu said, and her shoulders couldn't help but tremble. He was shaking and his face was pale.

"I didn't expect it to be her?"

Some people in the crowd couldn't help but take a breath of air and looked at Mr. Gu as if they wanted to kill someone.

What's more, they even picked up rotten vegetable leaves from the ground and smashed them on Gu's head.

Mrs. Gu's body trembled slightly and she fell to the ground. She raised her hands to protect her face helplessly. Between her fingers, Mrs. Gu looked at her daughter in the crowd from a distance. Deep in her heart, she was filled with endless misery and she couldn't stop swallowing.

Xia Shengsheng watched helplessly as her mother was being beaten and scolded by everyone, but she did not dare to take a step forward. She always stood there blankly, as if her legs were filled with lead.

"Mom..." Xia called out in a low voice.

Mrs. Gu shook her head. She was already risking her life by doing this. She just hoped that her daughter would be able to find her way back and not make any irreversible mistakes again.

Seeing Mrs. Gu being taken away by someone's arms.

Xia Shengsheng glared at Nan Jiangnan's back with resentful eyes. If it hadn't been for her, her mother would not have been caught!

"Nan Jiangnan, I hate you!" Xia gritted his teeth and glared at her, almost every word coming out of his mouth was filled with tears and grief.

Nan Jiangnan sneered: "Hate me?"

"Xia Shengsheng, do you hate me? Your mother is taking the blame for you. If you want to hate you, shouldn't you hate yourself?" Nan Jiangnan looked at her with an indifferent expression. Xia Shengsheng was trembling all over. Clenching her fists, one day, she will go back with revenge and make Nan Jiangnan unable to eat and walk around!

The crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed, and only Zhongzhonglou saw all this.

Wisteria grass grows in the mountains. Gu's legs and feet are not good and she cannot go up the mountain at all. The only person in the Xia family who can run up the mountain is Xia Shengsheng.

Could it be...

As soon as this conjecture came up, Zhongzhonglou felt frightened.

When he went back, Zhongzhonglou was thinking a lot and couldn't think clearly. He simply went to the mountains to relax and saw a figure not far away.

That is……

The girl sat on the stone, her back arched, her face covered with her hands, and she seemed to be crying.

She was wearing plain clothes and looked gentle and pleasant. She was clearly the same person as before, but Zhonglou felt that something was different.

Xia Shengsheng suddenly raised his head and saw the heavy building approaching not far away. He felt a surprise in his heart, but he did not dare to show it, so he could only ask in a low voice, "Why is Uncle Shen here?"

"Come out and relax."

Zhonglou looked at her with all kinds of doubts in his heart, but he didn't know where to start asking.

In the past, he always thought that Xia Shengsheng was a gentle, considerate and kind-hearted child, but now... too many things have happened, which really subverted Zhonglou's perception.

Zhongzhonglou looked down.

"These things that happened recently, you..."

"What did Uncle Shen want to say?" Xia Shengsheng was shocked, but still pretended to be stupid.

To be honest, these methods of hers are indeed despicable, but she has used them in the past, but these situations have never happened. It has always been smooth sailing, according to her wishes, but now, her plan has not only failed She succeeded and even sent Gu in. Now, even Zhongzhonglou began to doubt her.

Xia Shengsheng was a little unwilling, raised his head and looked at him with tears in his eyes: "Is Uncle Shen doubting Shengsheng?"

"Or is it that in Uncle Shen's heart, Shengsheng is actually that kind of person?" Xia Shengsheng's voice was weak, and she was crying, which made her look even more pitiful, making people want to protect her.

"I..." Before Zhongzhonglou finished speaking, he saw Xia Shengsheng had stood up.

She was already close to the edge of the cliff, and now that she was standing sideways, she looked a little more fragile. Shen Zhonglou was stunned and said hurriedly: "Shengsheng girl, come back quickly, it's dangerous over there!"

Xia Shengsheng shook his head desperately: "Uncle Shen doesn't want to believe Sheng Sheng, so why does he care what I do?" Xia Shengsheng has been very lucky since she was a child. Even if she falls off a cliff, she won't be hurt. Her mother always said that she Is there some kind of great luck that has blessed me?

Zhonglou's status is either rich or noble. It is an opportunity for her to prosper in the future. How can she let it go?

She wouldn't be seriously injured anyway, so why not just take a gamble.

Xia Shengsheng thought, while making a sad gesture, he fell towards the cliff on the side.

Zhonglou was shocked when he saw this. He quickly stepped forward and grabbed Xia Shengsheng's arm. The girl's slender wrist was tightly grasped by him. She was still trembling out of fear. Xia Shengsheng raised his head and said, A pair of watery eyes looked pitiful and full of tears.

Facing Xia Shengsheng like this, all the doubts in Zhongzhonglou's heart disappeared. He only supported his body with all his strength, pulled Xia Shengsheng up from the bottom of the cliff, and protected him in his arms.

Xia Shengsheng was trembling all over, like a frightened little white rabbit. She raised her head and looked at Zhongzhonglou. She pulled the clothes at the front of Zhongchenlou delicately and said in a soft voice: "No, don't believe me..."

"You are seriously injured. Let me take care of your wound first." Zhonglou said, carrying Xia Shengsheng to the open space aside.

In fact, Xia Shengsheng had no injuries on her body, but her face was frighteningly pale. Zhongzhonglou comforted her for a while before Xia Shengsheng supported her body and returned to Xia's house.

Zhongzhonglou was full of irritation. He felt that since he returned home this time, too many things seemed to have changed invisibly. These changes caught Zhongzhonglou off guard. For a moment, the annoyance in his heart was difficult to relieve, so Zhongzhonglou simply got up and left. Tavern.

Strong alcohol entered his throat, making Zhonglou feel confused, but a figure kept appearing in his mind.

Zhongzhonglou chased after him desperately, trying to catch it, but he couldn't catch it. He looked around, and the man looked back in the mist. The girl had bright eyebrows and a chic smile. Zhongzhonglou was stunned for a moment: "Nan Jiangnan?"

Zhongzhonglou woke up from his dream.

How could he dream about that woman?

Zhongzhonglou felt that he was somewhat crazy. He had no choice but to drink a large gulp of wine, stood up and left the tavern, staggering back to Shen's house.

Inside the Shen family.
