She returned to the room and looked at Old Master Cui, who was lying on the bed. She picked up a handkerchief beside her and helped Old Master Cui wipe the sweat off his forehead.


Old Master Cui’s dream seemed to be very unstable. One moment, he smiled, and the next, he frowned.


Gu Man could only continuously transfer spiritual energy into his body to calm his restless heart.


However, her spiritual power was constantly depleting. Coupled with the fact that Gu Man kept absorbing spiritual power from the bead, it was also a huge burden for her body.


She panted heavily, cold sweat pouring down her forehead. Her body was on the verge of collapse, and she clearly could not hold on anymore.


She stopped at the right time and looked at Old Master Cui, who had finally stabilized. Then, she smiled.


Only then did Gu Man remember Gu Yuan, who had been left hanging by the side. She picked up her phone and saw that Gu Yuan had called her a few times.


She had just taken a look when Gu Yuan called again. This time, she did not put Gu Yuan aside.


The call connected and Gu Yuan’s cursing voice came from the other end. “Do you want to die? 1 called you so many times, but you didn’t answer.”


“I didn’t hear you,” Gu Man said casually.


Gu Yuan was furious. “Do you still care about me, your father?”


“If there’s nothing else, 1’11 hang up.” Gu Man did not fall for Gu Yuan’s tricks at all. Her tone was as cold as it could be.


Gu Yuan took a few deep breaths and barely suppressed the anger in his heart. “I’m still talking about what happened today. Although it’s only a few hundred thousand yuan, don’t take it lightly. At least it’s helpful to your career. Besides, your mother left it for you.”


“I’ve already said that 1 don’t need it. You’re even greedy for a.s.sets. Why aren’t you greedy for this fund?” Gu Man asked with a cold gaze. Did the Gu family think that they had her weakness? Were they using Huang Ying as a threat?


“Are you suspecting me?” Gu Yuan was stunned and almost exposed himself.


“Isn’t it obvious?” Gu Man was speechless at Gu Yuan’s stupid question.


“Are you sure you don’t want the fund?” Gu Yuan suppressed his anger and said word by word.


Gu Man pondered for a moment. She was a little curious about how Gu Yuan planned to lie to her with this fund. “When?”


On the other end, Gu Yuan looked like he had expected it. “Whenever you want, but of course, the sooner the better. After all, this is not a small sum of money. 1’11 be more at ease if I hand it over to you early.”


Gu Man sneered. Since Gu Yuan was so impatient, she would satisfy him. She wanted Gu Yuan to understand that she was not someone to be trifled with.


“Then let’s do it this afternoon,” Gu Man said.


Gu Yuan’s heart skipped a beat and he quickly nodded in agreement. “Sure, you said it. Don’t regret it.”


After hanging up, Gu Man did not hesitate to leave the rest to Cui Lin. She took the car and headed for the Gu family.


At this moment, in the Gu residence.


Gu Rou saw Gu Yuan nod and an excited expression appeared on her face.


Don’t blame her for being unjust. After all, how could Gu Man let go of her a.s.sets? Then don’t blame them for using some methods.


At the thought of this, a sinister glint flashed across Gu Rou’s eyes. She returned to her room and filled the tub with cold water. She picked up her cell phone beside her and called Zhang Yue.


After waiting for about two to three seconds, the other party quickly picked up. “Rou’er, why did you suddenly call me?”


“Brother Zhang, ahem, I feel so uncomfortable now. Can you come and see me?” Gu Rou pinched her weak voice and said. At the same time, she took off her clothes and stepped into the cold water.


The touch of the ice water made her tremble and she couldn’t help but gasp.


Zhang Yue heard everything clearly on the other end of the cell phone and couldn’t help but become even more anxious. “Gu Rou, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you saying anything? You’re making me worried.”


Gu Rou forcefully suppressed the coldness in her heart and said in a trembling voice, “Brother Zhang, I’m fine. It’s just a small illness.”


Halfway through her sentence, Gu Rou coughed violently. She raised her other foot and stuck it into the cold water. In the end, she curled up in the bathtub and let the cold water invade her body..
