Although Qian Tao assured that she was fine, Li Hengzhi insisted that she did a full check up at the hospital.

In the ward, there was only Qian Tao and Gu Tong. Both Li Hengzhi and Yan Hai were not there.

“Tao, what happened to you? How did you fall into the pond not long after I left you? Xinmei just called me and told me that everyone in school is gossiping about how you attempted suicide by jumping into the pond because you were dumped by a man. Some said you might have been forced by someone and that’s why you took it hard. Anyway, it’s something like that.”

Qian Tao looked gloomy, “How could it be possible that I attempted suicide? I felt a sudden dizziness and fell into the pond.”

“Then, what happened there?” Gu Tong pointed at her neck. The love bites were too obvious!

“I…” Although she couldn’t tell the others, Tong Tong was close to her. Qian Tao didn’t want to endure this any further, so she told her, “Nah, these are…his!”

“Whose?” Gu Tong was taken aback at first but suddenly understood. Shocked, she asked, “His?”

Qian Tao nodded.

“Oh, and that’s why you were so sure he isn’t gay?”

“That’s right. He has done it, so he must be normal.”

“That’s true…” Gu Tong thought for a moment and caught her hand. “So Tao, don’t think too much. Sometimes overthinking isn’t good. Close your eyes and get married. Who knows he might be a good man, a one in ten thousand and he’s yours!”

“Am I that lucky?” Qian Tao murmured.

Suddenly, Gu Tong caught her hand again, this time with a worried expression. “Tao, which part of you doesn’t feel well? Why are your hands so cold and why don’t they seem to get warm?”

Qian Tao was in a daze. She looked at her and said, “I saw her in the pond, she wanted to take me along…”

Gu Tong was stunned. “It was her?”

Gu Tong stood up and placed her hand on Qian Tao’s forehead. “Tao, are you really alright? She died so many years ago, why did this illusion appear all of a sudden? You must be too tired lately! Since the Xiao family’s mishap, your family has been busy too, especially you. I think, from today onwards, don’t worry about anything. After all, you are about to get married. The Qian family and the Xiao family matters are none of your business!”

Qian Tao sighed and nodded. “It’s all I can do now…”

Just as Li Hengzhi and Yan Hai were about to enter the ward, they took a step back.

Yan Hai was doubtful. “Mr. Li, the result of my investigation doesn’t show this. Do you want me to investigate further?”

Miss Qian was obviously hiding something.

Who was dead?

According to what he knew, the mayor’s first wife was the only person in the Qian family who passed away at a young age due to sickness.

“It’s not necessary,” Li Hengzhi said.

He didn’t need to know about her past.

“What about the school? Gossip is widespread and it will surely affect Miss Qian’s reputation.”

“Go set it right.”

He knew better than anyone else where the marks on her neck had come from.

She was his woman. How could she be the subject of gossip?

“Yes.”

Just then, the doctors and nurses walked toward them. “Hengzhi, so you are here. Please come to my office. I have something to tell you about this girl.”

“Uncle, what is it that you can’t tell me here?”

“I think you’d better come with me.”
