Chapter 444: Chapter 444 Gu Family’s Apology 2_1

"I can’t bear to think about it... On such a snowy and cold day, having the car plunge into the river, how icy must the water have been? If it wasn’t for the truck driver happening to be a good swimmer and jumping in without any regard for his own safety to save her, right now, she..."

Everyone knew, if it was not for the truck driver who timely jumped and saved Gu En, by now, she would be buried deep with her car in the river.

"Since it wasn’t a political rival’s scheme, no matter what caused the accident, we must first thank the truck driver. In this festive time of the year, he risked his life to jump in the river to rescue someone and missed going home for the holidays." As he said this, the elder Gu called his attendants, and then called Lan Li, "Prepare some money, you and Xiaochen personally hand it over as a token of gratitude, and send him home."

Lan Li nodded, thought it would be best if he stepped in to handle this.

The accident left Gu En lying in the intensive care unit like a lifeless doll, without a hint of color, it took her three days and nights to wake up. When she did awaken, during visiting hours, her family, including Elder Gu and her mother, was present. As soon as Gu En opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was the worried and sympathetic gaze of her family.

"Dad, Mom, I’m sorry~" With a sob in her voice, her tears fell instantly, "I ruined everyone’s holiday spirit by causing so much worry and disturbance to dad’s work. I’m sorry."

"We don’t blame you, but... what exactly happened? Why did you hit the railing while driving? Was it the truck driver’s fault? Or...?" Elder Gu sighed deeply, staring at his seemingly lifeless daughter lying in the ICU for a couple of days took a toll on him. Both him and his wife barely slept, and they kept it a secret from the elderly couple, afraid that they might not be able to handle the news.

"It’s not his fault, it’s my own." As she said this, Gu En started to sob again, "It was my fault for being distracted while driving and rushing out carelessly."

"What were you doing out by yourself, driving around?" Lan Li frowned slightly, he heard from her cousin that Gu En had left the Gu’s home after receiving a phone call. According to the timing, it should be the call after he called her.

Frankly, these past few days, as he watched Gu En lie as still as a corpse in the ICU, he felt a pang of guilt. He wondered if it’s because he had spoken too harshly to her.

However, Gu En ignored Lan Li and instead began crying uncontrollably, like a helpless child, "I was afraid to go home. I’ve done a lot of wrong things lately, and I was afraid that mom and dad would be mad at me if they found out, so I just drove aimlessly around the city. Dad, Mom, I’m sorry, can you please not be mad at me? I’ll never do it again, I’ll never mess up again!"

Gu En’s sudden confession left everyone in the room dumbfounded, except Lan Li.

"What did you do wrong that you were scared to come home?" Elder Gu frowned slightly, he knew his daughter was temperamental and often lost her temper, but he always believed she had a good heart.

"Dad, you can’t be mad when I tell you!" Gu En sobbed convulsively, "I bullied a classmate of mine and I even caused her hands to get burnt by hot cocoa on the day before the New Year’s Eve. Dad, I despise her, there is nothing good about her. She hangs around me just because I’m Gu En, the daughter of the Gu family. She is vain she keeps receiving gifts from Lin Chan and treats her like a brother. She looks pretty, so many boys are after her, and she even has an intimate relationship with a male student at school..."

"Gu En!" Lan Li suddenly interrupted Gu En’s words
