Chapter 25 The Weird Mr. Rong
1688 Words
When she recalled her past,
Gu Baisheng couldn't help crying.
Her tears fell on the photo album and blurred Song Shuang's face.
She couldn't look at it anymore, so she closed it immediately.
At the same time, her phone rang.
She frowned. It showed that it was Xia Juan calling.
She wiped away her tears and picked up the phone.
When it was connected, Xia Juan said to her in fear, "Shengsheng! Something went wrong!"
"What happened?"
Gu Baisheng put the photo album back into the drawer.
It was noisy over there. There was the voice of police to let the gamblers keep quiet.
Xia Juan said in a hurry, "Your dad was caught at the casino!"
"Yeah."
Gu Baisheng answered coldly.
Xia Juan froze for a moment, "What we should do, Shengsheng?"
"I called the police."
Gu Baisheng answered.
Xia Juan was too shocked to make a sound.
At that time, there was Bai Dahai's voice, "You disobedient girl! You forget about your parents after getting married! Cold-hearted!"
Gu Baisheng was tired of Bai Dahai's words, so she told Xia Juan, "Mom, dad will hurt himself and other people if he keeps gambling. If he can't control himself, we should let other people do us a favor. You can live on with your life. Don't worry about him too much."
Before Xia Juan said anything, Gu Baisheng hung up the phone.
She fixed the trouble caused by her parents.
Gu Baisheng sat in silence for a while with her eyes looking down. Then she stood up, took her phone and purse to do some grocery shopping at a nearby market.
There was nothing to eat. But luckily, there was all the necessary kitchenware.
She had to buy some food to feed herself. After she was fully recovered, she could plan for the future.
Song Shuang cared nothing about her, so the marriage existed in name only.
She couldn't rely on it.
She had to rely on herself. So first of all, she had to have a source of income.
She needed to find a job.
She almost spent all her money now.
After figuring it out, she washed her face and went out shopping.
Jinshayuan was a high-grade residential area.
Only the rich and powerful could live here, so did Song Shuang.
He was the only son of the Song Family and the heir to the Song Group.
But now, he was still a doctor. When Gu Baisheng was still alive, the Song Family tried to force Song Shuang to resign and work for Song Group, so he could take it over from his father later.
But no matter how hard they tried, Song Shuang refused.
Later, Song Family may have given up.
Or maybe they told Song Shuang again, but not in front of her.
Now she lived at Jinshayuan. She remembered that how lucky she was to marry Song Shuang then.
She married the man of so many girls' dreams.
She still couldn't figure out why a well-rounded and popular guy like Song Shuang would like to marry Gu Baisheng.
And he was even willing to accept her child.
This was so well-known at the Beicheng University. It was listed as one of the most mysterious things about that golden boy.
After paying for the goods, Gu Baisheng went out of the supermarket.
When she just stepped out, there was a shadow jumping over suddenly.
With a horrible bark, someone was jumped on by a huge dog.
The customers walking out of the supermarket with her screamed immediately, "Help! A mad dog is attacking people!"
Gu Baisheng was scared too.
She was about to hide inside the supermarket again subconsciously. People tended to be panic and hide in the face of fierce and dangerous animals.
Gu Baisheng was no exception.
As a physician, she struggled a bit inside.
What happened to the man who got attacked?
The staff in front of the supermarket heard the bark too, but he didn't hear the cry for help. What he heard was a scream.
The customers who were about to leave the supermarket hid inside it. And they watched the dog attacking the man under the streetlight through the clear glass.
That was a fierce and grown pit bull.
And the one who was bitten by the pit bull on the arm was a slim teenager.
That man was about 1.78 meters in height, but it was not accurate because he was lying on the ground with his body bent over.
Everybody was wearing warm winter clothes now.
But this teenager was only wearing a bomber jacket.
A fierce grown dog like a pit bull could tear a piece of meat off people.
Anyone who had a dog knew that pit bull was very fierce and aggressive. Once it attacked other animals, it would only stop until its target was dead.
Everyone felt sorry for that teenager.
But they couldn't offer him any other help except for calling the police for him.
Nobody dared to stop the dog.
And nobody dared to save other people's lives from such a fierce dog.
They had to act that it had nothing to do with them and become the indifferent but worried passers-by.
Some people had already taken out their phones to take pictures, and they even posted them on their social media.
They felt sorry for the one who was under attack
And they didn't know whether he would die.
Gu Baisheng bit her lips and grabbed the plastic bags more tightly when she saw the pit bull wouldn't let go of the boy's arm.
She suddenly recalled so many random and fragmented memories.
The fierce dog and the indifferent passers-by were so similar.
And even the poor boy who was bitten by the dog was so similar.
She had a strange urge to reach out and open the door.
The customer who was next to her noticed her movement and grabbed her arm quickly, "Miss, you can't go out! It'll attack you as well."
Gu Baisheng suddenly regained her consciousness when she was grabbed by her arm.
She turned around to look at the person who stopped her. Then she realized other people were looking at her in shock or confusion.
Some people even whispered,
"That woman is crazy."
"Yeah, she was about to go out."
"That pit bull attacked the nanny on the 16th floor. It didn't stop until the police showed up. That woman was almost killed."
Gu Baisheng gasped.
She turned around and looked at that boy sympathetically and helplessly.
When she was about to call the security guards,
a woman in high heels walked here frowning.
She whistled and suddenly attracted the dog's attention.
Somehow, the dog let go of the boy even if other people said that it would never do so.
It turned around and ran towards the woman in high heels.
Gu Baisheng hesitated and pushed open the door when she saw the dog running towards the woman.
And then she rushed to the boy.
Everyone gasped when they saw her rushing to the boy so fast.
"She doesn't care about her life!"
"I haven't seen anyone like her before!"
"She seems to be a doctor, and she's giving first aid."
Someone saw Gu Baisheng kneel beside the boy and tear up his sleeve to bandage his bleeding arm.
And she checked his bleeding lap as well.
The woman in high heels didn't check how badly the boy got injured when the dog got back to her.
Instead, she bent down and patted the dog's head. She scolded it softly, "Endi, you're such a naughty boy."
It was more a rebuke than a reprimand.
She acted like she cared nothing about the injured.
The woman sighed and pointed the dog's nose.
Then she looked up and planned to check if that person was still alive.
But when she looked up, she froze.
She was surprised to notice that when everyone was watching from a distance,
a woman in a white puffer jacket was helping the boy to stop the bleeding, and she even called the ambulance.
"Miss Yo."
Her assistant ran to her and whispered to her.
The so-called Miss Yo waved her hand to signal him not to speak.
The assistant looked in the same direction as Miss Yo did, and he found Gu Baisheng was helping the injured.
The assistant was equally surprised, "Where is there a busybody? I'll drive her away!"
The assistant was about to rush there immediately.
But he was stopped by Miss Yo, "There're too many people. I'll ask someone to take care of it. Let's go."
Miss Yo had no intention to stay, and she turned around to leave.
But when she turned around, she looked at Gu Baisheng who was taking care of the injured.
And she frowned.
Apparently, she was sick of her presence.
The ambulance arrived soon.
Gu Baisheng helped the medical staff to send the injured onto the ambulance.
But at that time, there was a middle-aged woman who was in her forties running towards him and shouting, "Mr. Rong."
Actually, Gu Baisheng was quite surprised.
The injured looked like an 18 or 19-year-old man.
He was wearing a bomber jacket, and he was slim.
Because he fought with the dog, his face was full of dirt and blood.
She couldn't see his face, but she could feel that he was still very young.
He lived in this high-grade residential area.
He was apparently the son of a rich family.
This middle-aged woman didn't look like a rich lady. But if she was a servant, she should've called him "young master".
Why did she call him Mr. Rong?
And when she helped him to stop the bleeding, she could clearly feel that he was not like a normal person.
He seemed to be disabled physically or mentally.
Because he kept silent and looked very dull after being attacked.
Normal people wouldn't stay silent after being attacked by a dog, even if they were scared. And he looked dull rather than scared.
That was so weird.
What kind of person was he?
