Chapter 314 Follow the arrangements
She knew they wouldn't blame her; instead, they would be concerned about whether she was hurt.
I didn't want them to worry too much, so I didn't want them to know that I had fallen from the building.
Seeing that Aunt Ping and Aunt Xue were in a difficult position, Mengmeng suddenly smiled and said, "Mengmeng knows. Aunt Xue and Aunt Ping, you can just pretend you don't know anything and not say anything. If Mom and Dad see the surveillance footage, Mengmeng will explain it herself."
"Okay!" Aunt Ping nodded. "Are you really feeling alright now?"
Mengmeng nodded and got off the sofa. Standing on the carpet, she lifted herself into the air and jumped up and down a few times.
It would have been better if she hadn't jumped, because this jump made Aunt Xue and Aunt Ping's hearts clench and choke.
"Alright, alright, don't get hurt again." Aunt Xue held her hands in mid-air, worried that Mengmeng would twist her ankle again.
With her arms supported and her movements controlled, Mengmeng obediently stopped.
With Tian Tian on his mind and the constant chatter downstairs, Gu Shiyu came out of his room.
He heard every word of the conversation between the three people downstairs.
"You fell down the stairs?" He rushed to Mengmeng, grabbed her arm, and spun her around in front of him. "Where did you fall? Are you hurt?"
After being spun around twice, Mengmeng felt her vision blurry and her head spinning.
She grabbed Gu Shiyu's hand and tried to calm him down, saying anxiously, "Brother, Mengmeng isn't hurt!"
Not injured?
Gu Shiyu didn't believe it; he had personally heard Aunt Xue and Aunt Ping so anxiously instructing Mengmeng.
Not believing it, they carefully examined Mengmeng's body again, and only after confirming that every part of her body was intact did they breathe a sigh of relief.
"From which step did you fall?"
"Hmm~ It seems to be the third to last."
Mengmeng looked at the stairs, but she couldn't really remember them.
To avoid making Gu Shiyu worry further, she casually mentioned a number of steps that was relatively safe.
Gu Shiyu stared at her and asked earnestly, "Really?"
“Hmm, if you don’t believe me, brother, you can ask Aunt Ping and Aunt Xue.” Mengmeng turned her head and winked at the two women she had mentioned.
Sensing their gazes, Aunt Xue and Aunt Ping nodded somewhat guiltily.
The damage is already done; there's no point in trying to get to the bottom of this further.
Gu Shiyu realized that Mengmeng didn't want them to worry too much, so he stopped asking questions.
"What's the matter that's so urgent that you need to come downstairs?"
Mengmeng looked at Gu Shiyu, hesitated, and asked, "Brother, do you know that Sister Tiantian isn't home?"
"How do you know she's not home?" Gu Shiyu asked, frowning.
Did Ruolan find out too?
Gu Shiyu glanced up to the second floor, and before Mengmeng could speak, he pressed on, "Where are Mom and Dad? Did they tell you?"
"Dad and Mom didn't tell Mengmeng; Mengmeng overheard it herself. Dad took Mom out to pick up Sister Tiantian." Mengmeng told Gu Shiyu everything she knew.
She thought he was unaware of what was going on with Tian Tian. Little did she know, he knew even earlier than she did.
Gu Shiyu pulled her arm. "Alright, don't worry about that. It's getting late. I'll take you upstairs to rest."
"Brother, should we call Mom and Dad? If they can't find Sister Tiantian, Mengmeng can help too." Mengmeng held Gu Shiyu's hand, but didn't walk forward with him.
"No need," Gu Shiyu refused decisively. "Rest first, and we'll see how things go tomorrow. If Mom and Dad really need your help, they'll let you know when they get back."
Seeing that Mengmeng was still standing there and unwilling to go upstairs, Gu Shiyu's expression turned slightly cold.
"Mengmeng, be a good girl!"
"Brother, are you angry?"
Gu Shiyu was suddenly left speechless by her words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Is he angry, or not?
Faced with her stubbornness, Gu Shiyu was increasingly at a loss as to what to do with her.
He released his grip on her wrist, squatted down slightly, aligned his gaze with Mengmeng's, and said to her in a consultative tone, "Since they didn't look for you before they left, they must have already known where Tiantian was. When they came back and saw that you hadn't rested, they would think that their actions had caused you to misunderstand, so you waited for them to come back in the living room."
can you?
Wouldn't the mother feel very guilty?
Thinking of Ruolan's unhappy expression, Mengmeng took Gu Shiyu's hand and said, "Brother, let's go upstairs and rest!"
"it is good!"
As they went upstairs, Gu Shiyu carefully protected Mengmeng, afraid that she might lose her footing and fall down the stairs again.
My heart, which had been filled with worry, finally settled down when Ruo Ping returned to her room.
……
police station.
The car was parked in the yard. Before the car had even come to a complete stop, Ruolan hurriedly unbuckled her seatbelt and ran out of the car.
"Ruolan!" Gu Yinshen called out, "Don't rush! Wait for me, I'll go with you."
Ruolan had already arrived at the entrance of the police station lobby, with one hand already on the doorknob.
She turned to look at Gu Yinshen, who had rushed over to Shanshan, and hurriedly pushed the glass door open.
The hall was filled with all sorts of people. Some had just been brought back by patrolling police after causing trouble outside. Others were arguing in front of the police.
Ruolan looked around anxiously, searching for Tiantian's figure.
"Is this President Gu?" A police officer in uniform brushed past Ruolan and walked up to Gu Yinshen, respectfully extending his hand to greet her.
Ruolan turned around and looked at the man and Gu Yinshen.
"Well, I am."
"I am Xu Peng from the detachment here. Our director learned that you came to pick up your child in person, so he specially asked me to receive you."
As the man introduced himself, he noticed Ruolan, following the direction of her intense gaze.
Based on the information he had just searched online, he immediately learned that the woman in front of him was the renowned Madam Gu.
There are many rumors about her online. Only after seeing her in person did I understand why Gu Yinshen had remained single for so many years, just waiting for her to return.
"Where is my child, Tian Tian?" Noticing that the gaze was fixed on her, Ruolan stepped forward and asked.
Xu Peng snapped out of his daze and quickly pointed to one end of the corridor, "She's in my office now, with a police officer with her."
"Please take us there," Gu Yinshen requested.
"Alright, please come this way." Xu Peng bowed respectfully and led the way from the side.
Before we even reached the door, Tian Tian's boisterous voice could be heard coming from inside.
The sharp, piercing sound entered her ears, and Ruolan's worries vanished in an instant.
Gu Yinshen said to Xu Peng, feeling embarrassed, "Officer Xu, I'm sorry to have caused trouble for your police station."
"No, no, Mr. Gu, you're too kind. We police officers are born to serve the people, and this is all we should do," Xu Peng replied with a smile.
