"I certainly know, but do you?"
"What exactly do you want? If you're unclear, don't waste our time."
Lan Baobao was ready to leave, not wanting to waste any more time with this woman.
But at that moment, Mu Jiao'er’s words stopped her in her tracks.
"What if Ye Zixun had someone rape me?"
Lan Baobao suddenly turned around, her shocked gaze landing on Mu Jiao'er’s face.
How could that be? There was no benefit for Ye Zixun in doing that.
"Mu Jiao'er, up until now, your lies could drown a person multiple times. Your words have no credibility at all!"
"Do you think you can not believe me?" Suddenly, Mu Jiao'er walked to the edge, spreading her arms as if she were about to fly.
Seeing her crazy behavior, Lan Baobao's expression changed drastically. "Mu Jiao'er, what are you trying to do? That place is too dangerous; come back quickly."
"Since I've chosen this, do you think I plan to live and go back?" Mu Jiao'er sneered. The humiliations of that day surged in her heart. She had never been touched by so many men, yet Ye Zixun was so cruel, using those men to make her feel worse than death.
"Lan Baobao, even a woman like me has a bottom line. You ruined my life, but now I don’t want this anymore. Before I die, I want you to know what kind of man you are with and what kind of man you truly love."
"It’s impossible, impossible! Mu Jiao'er, you're lying..." No matter how Mu Jiao'er insisted, Lan Baobao couldn't believe that Ye Zixun would do such a thing.
Ye Zixun was indeed cold-hearted, but he still had a gentle side.
Compared to Mu Jiao'er, Ye Zixun was the one who could be trusted!
"Mu Jiao'er, everything you said is a lie, all of it!"
Mu Jiao'er sneered inwardly. Lan Baobao truly had deep feelings for Ye Zixun; even at this point, she still refused to believe her words.
Lan Baobao was such a pitiful woman. Even now, she chose to believe in Ye Zixun.
"Lan Baobao, I want to watch you and Ye Zixun fall apart. I want to see him painfully begging you to come back, and watch you heartbreakingly refuse him.
Your good days won't last long; I will be watching, watching you from hell!"
With that, she suddenly leaned backward.
"Mu Jiao'er, no!"
Lan Baobao's eyes widened as she wanted to rush forward to grab her, but it was too late. She could only watch helplessly as Mu Jiao'er fell off the edge.
"Mu Jiao'er!" She knelt at the edge, screaming in terror.
As Mu Jiao'er fell, she saw Lan Baobao's panicked face and smiled radiantly.
It seemed she had found an unprecedented peace.
"Lan Baobao, I finally made you suffer. I finally took back what was mine from you. I'm waiting to see your tragic ending with him, haha! Hahaha!"
Mu Jiao'er's voice grew fainter and fainter. When she plunged into the sea, not even a splash was stirred up; she vanished before Lan Baobao's eyes.
Lan Baobao lay on the rocks beside the cliff, staring blankly at the waves crashing against them, the splashes rising up.
"Mu Jiao'er... Mu Jiao'er..."
A living person suddenly disappeared before her eyes, and the words of Mu Jiao'er echoed in Lan Baobao's ears.
Look at their tragic ending.
Is this her grave?
At that moment, Gu Feng ran over from a distance and saw Lan Baobao kneeling at the edge. He rushed over and pulled her up, "Lan Baobao, are you crazy? What are you doing in such a dangerous place? Come back now!"
"Gu Feng, Mu Jiao'er... Mu Jiao'er jumped down."
It was the first time Lan Baobao had seen someone disappear right in front of her. She stared blankly at the water below, as if hoping Mu Jiao'er’s body would float to the surface, but the waves were too strong, and even her sunglasses had been swept away to who knows where.
Under the rocks, there was only an empty expanse of seawater, nothing left behind.
Gu Feng hadn’t seen Mu Jiao'er at all, so when he saw Lan Baobao, he didn’t notice Mu Jiao'er was missing.
"Baby, what did you just say? Mu Jiao'er jumped down? Don't joke around; how could she possibly commit suicide?"
"She jumped down. After she finished speaking, she jumped. She wouldn’t let me go even in death; she doesn’t want me to have peace!"
"Baby, don’t say that!" Gu Feng felt her body trembling. After holding Lan Baobao tightly, he looked down again.
A fierce sea roared below, and there was nothing there.
"Baby, what exactly did Mu Jiao'er do to you? Why does she want to ruin you and not let you have peace?"
"She..." Suddenly, Lan Baobao raised her eyes and locked her gaze tightly on Gu Feng's face. For a moment, she seemed distracted. Then her throat moved as she swallowed hard.
Anxiously, she said, "No, she didn’t do anything to me. Mu Jiao'er didn’t do anything."
After struggling for a while, Lan Baobao still closed her mouth and decided to keep it from Gu Feng for now.
Mu Jiao'er wanted to destroy her own life, to ruin both of them, and to watch them fall apart in hell.
Mu Jiao'er used her death to deal a heavy blow to her.
She didn't want to make wild guesses about this matter; she would tell Gu Feng once she confirmed it.
If what Mu Jiao'er said was true, and Ye Zixun chose to take revenge in this way, then he was truly terrifying.
But should she believe Mu Jiao'er's words?
Between Ye Zixun and Mu Jiao'er, wasn't Ye Zixun much more trustworthy?
However...
Lan Baobao closed her eyes, and as soon as she did, she saw Mu Jiao'er’s eerie smile when she fell.
In her ears, she could also hear Mu Jiao'er’s final roar.
Lan Baobao suddenly opened her eyes wide, her lips trembling.
“Baby, don’t be afraid! It’s all over now; I’m here! I’m here! Let me take you away first; I’ll call the police, okay?”
Lan Baobao nodded and then turned around, letting Gu Feng accompany her as they left.
Gu Feng escorted her to the car and locked it securely.
He first handed her a cup of hot cocoa and then slowly walked to the edge, frowning as he looked at the raging sea. Mu Jiao'er actually jumped down from here?
Why is she doing this? Doesn't she know that it's very dangerous? Doesn't she realize that jumping down could lead to a near-death experience?
Gu Feng finds it hard to imagine that a woman as vain and greedy as Mu Jiao'er would choose the path of suicide.
Is she already so disillusioned with life, or does she want to use her death as a final gamble?
Thinking this, Gu Feng slowly took out her phone and dialed the emergency number.
Immediately, many officers gathered near the rocks. The police were searching for Mu Jiao'er's body both at sea and along the shore, but perhaps due to the strong waves or being caught in a whirlpool, after seven or eight hours, there was still no news.
After finishing her statement, Lan Baobao felt very tired.
With Gu Feng's help, the police at the station did not keep Lan Baobao there and allowed her to leave.
Once home, Lan Baobao showed no reaction. After being helped into her room by the Nurse, she soaked in hot water but felt cold all over her body.
This chill was almost freezing her entire being.
Mu Jiao'er, what did your last words really mean?
Would a woman like you go to hell?
Lan Baobao expressed doubt and buried a deeper suspicion in her heart.
With Mu Jiao'er dead, Lan Baobao no longer had any reason to return to Gu Feng's home.
After thinking it over, she decided to find a place to stay. On one hand, she didn't want to disturb Gu Feng anymore; on the other hand, she needed to find a place of her own sooner or later.
Although Gu Feng wanted to stop Lan Baobao from moving out of her home, now that Mu Jiao'er had jumped into the sea, there was no reason to force Lan Baobao to stay.
With Lan Baobao's persistence, Gu Feng found it hard to go against her wishes and do anything unnecessary.
However, even though Gu Feng let her leave, he took care of the housing arrangements himself.
Before evening, he had already found a suitable room for Lan Baobao, and the house had everything it needed.
To prevent Lan Baobao from feeling too bored over the next few months, he even had someone buy a computer and some video games for her to play when she was feeling idle.
Initially, he wanted to buy her a pet, but after hearing that the bacteria from pets could be very harmful to pregnant women, he ultimately decided against it.
Gu Feng then arranged for a nurse to take care of Lan Baobao.
He also hired a nanny for her.
With all this in place, it seemed that Lan Baobao would have a pretty good life.
Sitting on the sofa, Lan Baobao looked at the home decor with great satisfaction.
Finally, she smiled at Gu Feng, saying, “Gu Feng, thank you for your help. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't have found a place this quickly.”
“Do we need to be so polite between us?”
“No need!” Lan Baobao's smile widened, but it still seemed a bit forced.
“Take a look; is there anything else that needs to be added to this room?”
“Nothing else. I checked the cabinets and the food in the fridge; it's enough for me to eat for a month. I think living here should be very comfortable!”
“As long as you feel happy and comfortable, that's all that matters!”
Gu Feng smiled and gently rubbed her head, showing warmth and affection.
Lan Baobao checked the time and said, "It's getting late now. You've really worked hard during this time. Why don't you go back and rest early? We'll see each other tomorrow!"
"Can you manage on your own?" Gu Feng still felt a bit worried. At the hospital, there was Nursing to look after her, and at home, she had someone taking care of her.
But now? She was living here alone, and it was hard to guarantee that nothing would happen.
Nursing and the nanny could only help her with daily life, but they couldn't assist her with more troublesome matters.
Gu Feng's heart was filled with concern.
"You are pregnant now and can't afford any danger, you know? I don't want you to encounter any trouble!" Gu Feng sounded like an older brother.
"Gu Feng, you can rest assured now; I'm fine. If anything happens, I'll call you right away, okay? I have two people here with me, so I won't have any problems. Besides, you know you'll be coming over, right? We're just apart for one night!" To reassure Gu Feng, Lan Baobao could only say this.
