Chapter 222: Chapter 222 Don’t Get Yourself Involved_1
Under the cover of darkness, the black sedan blended in with the night, and I failed to get a clear look at it.
By the time I managed to regain my concentration, Gu Yuanzhou already had me in the car and the door was closed.
The rain continued to fall.
Gu Yuanzhou quickly turned the car around.
“Gu Yuanzhou, are you crazy?”
His strength was too overwhelming; I had no way of resisting.
By then, he had locked the doors and windows of the car.
I had no means of escape.
“Gu Yuanzhou, stop the car, let me out!!”
“Gu Yuanzhou, what the hell do you want?”
Gu Yuanzhou calmly continued to drive,
“You’d better lower your voice, don’t call Ding Yinuo over!”
At his words, I fell silent.
I stopped shouting.
Indeed, if Ding Yinuo found out that I was taken away by Gu Yuanzhou, there was no guessing what crazy actions he might take.
Today was his father’s funeral, I couldn’t add to the chaos anymore.
Gu Yuanzhou quickly left the mountain area and headed towards the city.
I reached out to touch the rainwater on my face, turning to look at him,
“Gu Yuanzhou, what do you want to do?”
He ignored me.
He just held onto the steering wheel, driving through the city streets.
Half an hour later, the car arrived at the entrance of the Zhenyi Company.
However, he had no intention of stopping. Instead, he circled around the Zhenyi Company.
“You should know that Zhenyi Company is the fruit of the hard labor of my wife and I!”
I scoffed.
“I won’t allow anyone to destroy it!”
“The only person that could destroy Zhenyi Company is you, Gu Yuanzhou! Your character, your behavior, everything you do, will ensure your failure.”
Gu Yuanzhou didn’t argue with me, only continuing to drive around the city.
A dozen or so minutes later, he parked the car outside the Xishan Residence.
I was shocked because this was Ding Yinuo’s place, as far as I knew, Gu Yuanzhou had never been here before.
“How do you know I live here?”
He turned to look at me, a trace of irony in his eyes.
“I harbor resentment towards the Ding Family, but I don’t have any issues with you. I hope that you can come to your senses and know what you’re doing! Wise people know how to adapt, don’t push yourself into danger!”
“Gu Yuanzhou, unlock the door, I want to get off, or else I’m calling the police!”
Gu Yuanzhou didn’t detain me further and eventually unlocked the safety lock.
I hurriedly got out of the car.
Through the car window, Gu Yuanzhou made a throat-slitting gesture at me.
This scared the living daylights out of me.
After a while, I heard the sound of a ringing phone in my purse.
I unlocked the door of the Xishan Residence with my key and then answered the call.
“Ayun, why weren’t you answering your phone? Did you run into Ding Yinuo on the mountain?”
Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.
It was Wenya calling.
“Uh, no! I, I, uh, ran into Gu Yuanzhou!”
“Oh my God, what did he do to you?”
Wenya was even more nervous than I was.
“He didn’t do anything, just threatened me not to meddle in the Ding Family’s affairs anymore.”
His deliberate drive to the Xishan Residence was meant to send a message – that he knew my address and could take action against me at any time.
“You’re not hurt, are you?”
“I’m fine, Wenya! But I haven’t seen Ding Yinuo.”
“Alright, rest well at home. I’ll stay here with Su Peisheng for a while, if Ding Yinuo doesn’t return home late, we’ll go see him. Ah, Ayun, be careful these days! I didn’t expect Gu Yuanzhou to be so aggressive.”
“Don’t tell Ding Yinuo!”
“Ah, alright!”
Only after I repeatedly reminded Wenya, did I hang up the phone.
Throughout the latter part of the night, as the rain continued to pour, I kept mulling over what Gu Yuanzhou had said to me.
Though I had made up my mind to compete with him in the business world.
But I never expected that our relationship would reach a point of life or death.
I dared not imagine what it would be like if I died at his hands this time. freёnovelkiss.com
I made myself a cup of coffee and stared out the window at the night.
I needed to calm down, I needed to think.
I lay in bed that night, unable to sleep.
I thought about a lot of things.
Memories of warm and loving moments spent with Gu Yuanzhou now seemed like a distant dream or an illusion in a past life.
A dream that was unreachable.
And now, he had become so cold, so cruel.
I couldn’t accept it!
As Wenya said: the love between Yuanzhou and me was the biggest folly of my life.
But in my heart, I couldn’t admit that I was blind.
How could it be, how could it be possible?
Later in the night, I was jolted awake by a noise.
I instinctively got up as I saw the door moving, reached out, and grabbed a large empty porcelain vase on the table, then rushed behind the door, even without having time to put on shoes.
The one who entered was Ding Yinuo.
He looked shocked at my defensive posture.
“It’s you?”
I sighed a breath of relief and put the empty vase in my hand down.
He stowed his umbrella in the corner and, taking off his slightly damp suit jacket, walked towards me.
“Ayun, what’s the matter?”
I quickly explained, “I thought a thief broke in!”
Actually, I was scared.
Gu Yuanzhou’s words had made me lose my sense of safety, I was worried that someone would come to harm me.
“There won’t be any thieves, the security system in the community is excellent! There’s a security guard on duty 24 hours at the gate, why were you sleeping on the sofa?”
In fact, I was originally sleeping on the bed.
But as I couldn’t sleep, I dragged a blanket to the sofa in the living room.
Maybe the fire left me with post-traumatic stress disorder. After I got scared, I didn’t dare to stay in the bedroom.
However, I didn’t want Yinuo to worry, so I made up an excuse.
“Thieves, I’m scared of thieves!”
“Thieves? Ayun, do you have anything valuable that you’re afraid will be stolen?”
Yinuo just came in from the outside, his hair was still damp, and his cheeks and eyebrows were a little wet.
He sat down on the couch, grabbing my hands, trying to comfort me.
“Ayun, look at me!”
He gently touched my cheek with his hand, he was a doctor.
I knew that my panic would not be concealed from him, I just tried hard to steady my breathing.
“Er, I’m fine now, Yinuo, you… why did you come back?”
“I came to check up on you, I was not at ease with you alone at home!”
Yinuo picked me up and took me into the bedroom.
My head was against his chest, hearing the clear sound of his heartbeat, this feeling made me feel safe.
Yinuo turned on the bedside lamp.
The pale orange glow in the bedroom made it seem a lot warmer.
His palm gently touched my forehead, and after making sure I did not have a fever, he said to me, “You go to sleep first! I’ll take a shower!”
“Oh, okay!”
I nodded, lay down on the bed, and began to scroll through the news on my mobile out of boredom.
Meanwhile, Yinuo went into the bathroom, and a half-hour later, he came out wearing a bathrobe.
With a lingering scent of cool shower gel, he came over to me, “Why haven’t you slept yet?”
“I can’t sleep, I’m always worried… afraid Yuanzhou might cause trouble?”
“Are you scared by what he said at the funeral?”
“Yeah, I guess so!”
Yinuo patted my shoulder, “Well, I’ll sleep on the couch, that way, if anyone breaks in, I can wake up immediately.”
“That’s not okay!”
Actually, I didn’t want to bother Yinuo, but he insisted on staying by my side, sleeping on the couch.
I eventually turned out the lights…
However, between my drowsiness, a fire suddenly engulfed everything.
