Destined with You

Chapter 38 - 43 Marrying Him Will be the Death of Me!



Gu Qingxin was dragged back to the Gu Family house by Gu Huai’an. As Zhou Mantong spotted the father and daughter, she nearly jumped out of her skin, pointing at Gu Qingxin and exclaimed, “Why did you bring her back? If the Meng family finds out, do you think they will spare us?”

“What else can we do? Well just keep her locked up for now! If the Meng family comes to claim her, well tell them she and Meng Xilin have disappeared together!” Gu Huai’an could only think of this temporary solution on the spot.

“No! You can’t lock me up, my mom is still in the hospital. Dad, I beg you, save her. After all, you two were once husband and wife.” Gu Qingxin knelt on the ground, pleading with her father.

“Shut up! Eo you realize how much trouble you’ve brought me? 1 don’t have the mental energy to care for others!” Gu Huai’an let go of her, angrily loosening his necktie.

“Tell me, where on earth did Meng Xilin go? Huh!” Gu Huai’an pointed at his daughter angrily, demanding an answer. On their way back, he had asked her countless times, but the stubborn girl refused to tell him.

“I don’t know, I really don’t know. Dad, you can punish me any way you want, but I beg you… save my mom. If you don’t save her, she’ll be hopeless.”

“Then let her die! You and your mother are the bane of our Gu family! It would be best if you both died together!” Gu Huai’an harshly kicked Gu Qingxin and ordered, “Lock her up in the basement, and nobody is allowed to free her without my command.”

A sharp pain shot through her lower leg, but it was nothing compared to the pain in her heart…

This was her father…

“Then let her die!”

“Both of you, mother and daughter, are the bane of our Gu family! It would be best if you both died together!”

The basement was dark and damp…

Gu Qingxin didn’t know how long she had been locked up. She was soaked from the rain yesterday, and now she was shivering with cold. She curled herself up, constantly calling for her mom in a whimper, tears streaming down her face…

With a “bang!”, the heavy iron door was flung open. Gu Qingxin instantly opened her eyes to a pair of black leather shoes in front of her…

She slowly looked up. Under the dim light, the handsome face of Tang Rongling emerged, taking her breath away…

“If you want to save Aunt Lin, 1 can help you. I’ll cover the medical costs…but you have to agree to one condition.”

Staring at the face in front of her, Gu Qingxin felt a strange unfamiliarity. In the past decade, she used to break into smiles at the mere thought of him. But now…

Her eyes were still burning with unshed tears, but she wouldn’t let them fall. She clenched her hands into tight fists, her nails digging deep into her palms…

“Meng Zhenglin has been found…he’s useless now…”

As Tang Rongling said these words, he was observing Gu Qingxin’s reaction. But she had none. Equanimity reigned her face as if she was utterly detached from it.

“Marry him, and 1 will pay all of your mom’s medical expenses.”

Marry him, marry him, marry him…

The phrase circled around in Gu Qingxin’s mind over and over. He knew what kind of man Meng Zhenglin was and still decided to throw her at him without hesitation…

Despite knowing that Meng Zhenglin was now a ruin, he still demanded her to be married to him…

What would happen if she really went ahead and married Meng Zhenglin?

All of Meng Zhenglin’s rage would be vented on her, he would toy with her, perhaps even to her death!

He was not casting her into the fire pit, but into the very gates of hell!

“If 1 marry him, 1 would die!”

Gu Qingxin stared at him, calmly stating a fact….
