Protecting Her

The old woman concurred with him in her thoughts, contemplating how to get her daughter-in-law out first and then deal with her when she returned.

She said, "Su Shen, Chu Xi is at most just a little too greedy for some money."

She would never do something as heinous as poisoning someone. There must be a misunderstanding. Maybe someone used her!"

After she finished speaking, she glared fiercely at Gu Zi, insinuating that Gu Zi had nefarious intentions, wanting to harm the children through a proxy.

Su Shen shielded Gu Zi behind him and retorted sternly, "The police will uncover the truth, and I'll fulfill my duty. I will reclaim all the money Chu Xi stole that wasn't part of her salary."

Gu Zi couldn't help but want to applaud. The way this man defended her and her family was incredibly impressive.

The old woman fumed, stamping her feet irrationally, and exclaimed, "Su Shen, why must you do this?! Look at your child. He's perfectly fine."o

As she spoke, she glanced at the courtyard, and Su Li's head shrank back.

The old man joined in, discussing family ties. "We see each other all the time. Why must you make such a fuss? Su Shen, you're a man, and it's natural to be mesmerized by beauty, but we're your family!"

Gu Zi was at a loss for words. Why did everything seem to revolve around her? Their logic was simply outrageous. Could someone be forgiven simply because their attempt to harm another failed?

Moreover, Su Li was hospitalized. His health was already delicate, and now it had become even worse. How could they claim that he was fine?

Gu Zi immediately walked in and called Su Li out. She held the hospital bill in her hand.

"Come and take a good look. Is this your idea of 'fine'?"

Su Li's lips were ashen, and his face was still pale.

Overnight, his body had grown significantly thinner, like a paper figurine.

She then presented the hospital bill and pointed to the charges listed on it.

The two old men were shocked when they saw the cost. The Su family wouldn't ask their family to pay for this, right?o

Su Shen's brows knitted tightly, his handsome features growing cold and menacing, conveying his disinclination to speak further.

"You're the ones who have lost your minds! Gu Zi is my wife. Su Bing, Su Li, and

Su Le are my children. They are my family. I won't let anyone who harms my family go unpunished. If you don't leave, I'll release the dog."

As everyone in the village knew, Su Shen's Tibetan Mastiff was notably fierce. Many thieves in the area refrained from targeting the Su family precisely because of this Tibetan Mastiff.

Upon hearing Su Shen's tone, they did not dare to not believe he would set the beast upon them!

"Su Shen, you... You don't even recognize your family! "

After saying this, the two elderly men didn't dare to linger any longer and departed from the Su family's doorstep, leaving in a somewhat embarrassed state.

He actually said that she was his wife. Was she already his wife? And family!

She gazed at Su Shen, finding his charisma irresistible.

Moreover, in the face of such an irrational situation, his resolve was unwavering. Gu Zi wholeheartedly approved of his approach. Once more, she felt that she had found a treasure.
