Chapter 4: Who Instructed You?

Gu Wanwan's smile froze on her face, her eyes turning cold. "Regardless, I must secure the spot for admission."

"Be more pleasing to Gu Zhao when he returns," Cheng Yu advised.

Gu Wanwan nodded, suddenly remembering something. "What should we do when he sees Gu Qingning? After all, they are siblings from the same mother."

"Gu Qingning disappeared shortly after birth. They have never met as siblings. There is no sibling bond between them. After so many years, they have probably forgotten about their sister," Cheng Yu scoffed dismissively.

"If they truly cared about Gu Qingning as their sister, they would have come to see her long ago. Gu Qingning has been back for a month, and they haven't even shown up," Gu Wanwan said, relieved, a smile returning to her face.

That mute Gu Qingning only brings shame to the Gu family. As long as she performs exceptionally, her older brothers will naturally consider her the best sister. They will be even more disdainful of Gu Qingning then.

...

In the middle of the night, the chilling moonlight seeped through the treetops.

A figure silently sneaked into the garage.

Before long, the roaring engine pierced the darkness.

A black motorcycle shot out of the garage, disappearing into the night like an arrow.

"Master, are we just going to let her go like this?" Yun Zheng watched the surveillance footage, his expression twisted.

This girl has some nerve, leaving in the middle of the night with a stolen car?

Fu Juncheng supported his chin with one hand, his deep black eyes narrowing slightly, exuding a hint of laziness. "She will come back."

So certain? Yun Zheng looked at him puzzled.

Fu Juncheng smirked and didn't explain.

...

Hospital.

A chilly breeze swept through the corridor, carrying an eerie atmosphere.

The lights were on in the ward, and whispers could be heard.

"Why did Gu Qingning suddenly become so formidable, like a madwoman?"

"If we let her escape this time, will she come back for revenge?"

"Shut up, all of you." The girl sitting on the hospital bed impatiently reprimanded them.

Zhao Xiaoxiu obediently closed her mouth, but Fang Yiyi, being bolder, continued, "Zhou Yao, we have already arranged for you to take leave from school. We said you accidentally slipped and fell from the hillside."

"As for Gu Qingning, she got lost on her own. It has nothing to do with us. We just have to insist that we don't know anything," Fang Yiyi added.

They absolutely must not let the incident with Gu Qingning leak out privately. The consequences would be unimaginable.

Zhou Yao's face was filled with resentment, and the marks on her neck were faintly painful. "I understand."

"Heh."

A cold, mocking laughter rang out like a thunderclap, startling Zhou Yao and the others.

"Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning for lying, hmm?"

Zhou Yao and the others turned their heads towards the door, where a slender girl leaned against the doorframe, her cool gaze sweeping over them.

The three of them immediately paled, and Fang Yiyi's voice trembled as she spoke, "Gu... Gu Qingning, you..."

How did she find her way here?

Gu Qingning straightened up and closed the door behind her.

The sound of the lock echoed in the ears of Zhou Yao and the others, like a bolt from the blue.

"Gu Qingning, don't mess around. This is a hospital. If you harm us, you won't be able to escape," Fang Yiyi couldn't sit still anymore, standing up and stepping back.

Gu Qingning glanced at her and then fixed her gaze on Zhou Yao, her eyes filled with chilling coldness. "Tell me, who instructed you?"

Zhou Yao stiffened, a hint of nervousness appearing in her eyes. "I don't know what you're talking about, who instructed us. I have no idea."

Gu Qingning sneered, a cold chuckle escaping her lips. "So, no one instructed you. It's the three of you who wanted to put me in a life-threatening situation?"

"No," Zhao Xiaoxiu couldn't help but tremble in fear, overwhelmed by Gu Qingning's imposing aura.

"It's not like that, I..."

Zhou Yao interrupted her sharply, giving her a warning look. "Zhao Xiaoxiu."

Gu Qingning glanced at the two of them, her patience gradually wearing thin. "Lying in front of me is asking for trouble."

Having witnessed Gu Qingning's ghost-like skills, Zhao Xiaoxiu and Fang Yiyi dared not even breathe heavily.

"Gu Qingning, we just had a little dispute with you, a little pushing and shoving. I got injured by you like this, what else do you want?" Zhou Yao said, lacking confidence in her voice.

Gu Qingning's brows furrowed, and she took a step forward. "Throwing paint, engaging in physical fights, a brawl. And you call that a little pushing and shoving?"
