"Where are you now? I'll come pick you up." Gu Xiuyu had taken Ye Ziyu's affirmative reply as her willingness to come. He held his phone in one hand and had already started picking out clothes to wear.
As soon as he opened the wardrobe, before he had even chosen his clothes, the reply on his phone left him stunned.
"Have someone send the real antidote to the hospital for Di Mingjue to take, otherwise I'll drink the poison you gave me today."
To save Di Mingjue, she was willing to drink it herself to threaten him?
Heh! What deep affection.
Gu Xiuyu removed his hand from the clothes, not falling for Ye Ziyu's ploy. "Do you think I'll believe what you're saying? If you drink the poison, I can use the real antidote to save you. In the end, Di Mingjue will still die, and you will still become my wife."
"Is that so? Then let's try it and see how you save me after I drink the poison," Ye Ziyu hung up the phone.
Watching the call end, Gu Xiuyu was going mad. He didn't dare to gamble. If Ye Ziyu really drank the poison for Di Mingjue, he would never get her.
He gripped his phone tightly.
But there was no answer from the other end.
"Ye Ziyu, you can't! You can't drink the poison for him!" Gu Xiuyu roared, ordering his subordinates to search every corner of Sijiucheng to find her.
Gu Xiuyu also didn't dare to wait at the Gu family residence. He changed his clothes and drove away.
On the road, he kept calling Ye Ziyu while scanning the roadside. Any person with a similar build to hers would cause Gu Xiuyu to stop his car and check.
Just as his search proved fruitless, Ye Ziyu called him with a video call.
Gu Xiuyu answered the video call, almost trembling.
"Ziyu, where are you now?" Gu Xiuyu looked at the pitch-black screen of the video, unable to see Ye Ziyu's face at all.
A few seconds later, the video on the other side lit up. Ye Ziyu appeared in the video, holding the medicine bottle he had given her. "I'll ask you one last time, are you going to give me the real antidote or not."
The bottle cap had already been opened, and Ye Ziyu's movement could at any moment lead her to drink the poison inside.
Seeing that she was serious, Gu Xiuyu did not dare to immediately refuse her request. But if he agreed, he would never get her.
"I'll give you two minutes to think," Ye Ziyu said again.
Facing the time constraint, Gu Xiuyu closed his eyes and nodded in agreement, "I can send the real antidote to the hospital, but I want to see you."
"You tricked me once, do you think I'll believe you again?" Ye Ziyu sneered.
Didn't the poison in her hand remind her to be extra vigilant against him? How could he still say such a thing?
After agreeing to give the poison, Gu Xiuyu stopped backing down. "If I don't see you, how can I believe you won't swallow that bottle of poison? And aren't you afraid I'll poison Di Mingjue again?"
Ye Ziyu was moved. She indeed didn't believe Gu Xiuyu would give her the real antidote, but if she went to see him now, what if he played a trick?
After much thought, Ye Ziyu said, "Let's both go to the hospital now. I want to personally witness that the medicine you bring can save Di Mingjue, otherwise I will drink this bottle of poison in front of you."
"Alright," Gu Xiuyu nodded in agreement.
As long as he could see Ye Ziyu, he had ways to make her stay with him forever.
After the call ended this time, Gu Xiuyu summoned all the subordinates he had arranged to the hospital. Once Ye Ziyu appeared, the game would be completely over.
Before setting off for the hospital, Ye Ziyu specifically called Shen Lin. From now on, no one was allowed to enter the ward, including doctors. She was worried that Gu Xiuyu would agree to her request while plotting behind her back.
In the current situation, she couldn't afford any mistakes.
