Chi Yu wanted to hug her, but his broken body was almost out of strength. With his last ounce of energy, he said to her, "I miss you so much."
Every day and night, every mont, I’m thinking of you.
"Yuanyuan, I really miss you."
A man, in such a terrible state, still crawls over to tell you: I miss you.
At this mont, Gu Yuan’s emotions were indescribably mixed.
There was a bit of dust on his face. Gu Yuan frowned and used her hand to wipe it off. Finding it couldn’t be wiped clean, she called for help: "Co here, lend a hand, and lift him into the car."
The unconscious Chi Yu was soon lifted into the car.
It was Gu Yuan’s car, personally permitted by Gu Yuan.
As for Tu Kuan, he was arranged in another car and didn’t need to be attended to for the mont. The other three were sent to the police station.
...
In the car.
Chi Yu’s body was lying at an angle, his head resting on Gu Yuan’s lap. Whether his consciousness was clear or he was deeply comatose was uncertain—his brows remained tightly furrowed.
His expression looked very painful and very sorrowful.
Gu Yuan used her hand to smooth out his furrowed brows.
But no matter what, she couldn’t smooth them out; his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
Gu Yuan was silent for a while. Regardless of whether he could hear her or not, she spoke up to comfort him: "You’re safe now, don’t worry."
These words had no effect.
Chi Yu’s brows were still furrowed.
He seed to be caught in a deep vortex that could drown and suffocate him at any mont...
For so reason, Gu Yuan inexplicably said, "I am Gu Yuan."
When she thought, like before, that these words had no calming effect, Chi Yu’s tightly knit brows surprisingly relaxed and slowly returned to calm.
Seeing his reaction, Gu Yuan was sowhat surprised.
Silence followed.
In front of her was his lean face. Gu Yuan recalled a little, it seed ever since they t again in Ancient Water Village, he had been in a state of leanness. Gu Yuan placed her hand on the back of his neck, then moved forward, stopping at his collarbone.
He indeed had lost a lot of weight.
There was still dust on his face that hadn’t been wiped off. Gu Yuan took a wet wipe from her bag, tore one out, unfolded it, and wiped the dust off his face.
She wiped very carefully, cleaning his dirty face thoroughly.
After wiping, she held his face in her hands, lost in thought for a long ti before saying, "Are you tornting , or yourself."
At this mont, her phone rang; a call was coming in.
Gu Yuan looked at her phone.
It was a call from Wen Bo.
She knew Wen Bo would call, just she didn’t expect him to be unable to hold back so soon. She had just taken the person away, and he had already gotten the news; quite fast indeed.
But Gu Yuan didn’t answer, decisively rejecting his call.
Throughout the day, she had been trying to contact Wen Bo, but Wen Bo never answered her calls.
Now it’s just the tables turning.
After rejecting Wen Bo’s call, he didn’t stop, persistently bombarding her with calls.
Gu Yuan patiently declined the calls again and again.
After refusing nearly twenty calls, Gu Yuan added Wen Bo’s number to the blacklist.
Being blacklisted, anyone would take a break, but Wen Bo didn’t stop for a mont. Finding he couldn’t reach Gu Yuan, he imdiately used soone else’s phone to call her.
After several continuous calls, Gu Yuan finally answered, slowly and calmly.
As soon as Gu Yuan picked up, she heard Wen Bo’s angry scolding on the other end: "Gu Yuan, you damn it, are you trying to piss off, aren’t you, damn it..."
"Uncle, such a temper! If I didn’t hear wrong, was Uncle scolding soone? And, is Uncle scolding the sister you most respect?"
Wen Bo: "..."
Lost as soon as he spoke!
Gu Yuan reminded him, "Uncle, you always say I’m insidious and cunning. Since that character is already established in your heart, I must also correct my character for myself. I have a habit of recording my calls, and your words are truly thought-provoking. After thinking it over, I believe I should edit this recording and send it to my mom, let her appreciate how her beloved brother scolds her."
Wen Bo: "..."
On the other end, Wen Bo instantly fell silent.
After dozens of calls were not answered, Wen Bo’s temper was already at its breaking point.
His original plan was to scold Gu Yuan as soon as she answered.
But... he got played again!
"Gu Yuan, you know why I’m calling, stop giving this act. I’m not falling for it."
Gu Yuan: "Uncle must take responsibility for what he says."
"Responsible for what?"
Gu Yuan continued, "You always speak of integrity, how could you possibly be bothering people in such a manner privately, right? My noble uncle?"
What a phrase—noble, selfless, righteous.
Wen Bo’s anger rose, yet he had to endure it.
Just now, in a mont of rage, he cursed out of impulse. The words could indeed be used by Gu Yuan against him before his sister. He never cursed Gu Yuan to her face, only behind her back.
Just now, he was driven mad with anger, unable to control his tongue.
Quickly calming down, Wen Bo, with rage barely in check, said, "Chi Yu attacked harshly in the detention center. Isn’t it normal for to retaliate? If you hadn’t intervened today, I wouldn’t have let that bastard Chi Yu go."
"Oh? Uncle intends to go down with the ship?"
Wen Bo thought for a mont and said, "Gu Yuan, consider it a montary lapse of judgnt on my part. Since Chi Yu has already been taken by you, I won’t bother with him further!"
"Can Uncle draft a written guarantee for what you said?"
"In your dreams!"
Gu Yuan’s face was cold, her voice even colder: "How do I know how much of what Uncle says is true and how much isn’t? Every word from Uncle, I genuinely can’t admire."
Wen Bo: "..."
As Wen Bo was ntally cursing Gu Yuan to the extre, he heard Gu Yuan’s cold reminder from the earpiece: "You can’t touch anything of the Gu Family, or any person of mine. Wen Bo, I warn you, if you dare play these petty tricks again, I’ll make sure you can’t stay in Sui City."
Wen Bo, gritting his teeth: "Gu Yuan, you dare threaten !"
Gu Yuan let out a light, disdainful chuckle: "Yes, Uncle, you heard right, your niece is indeed threatening you. Did you record it? It’s not too late to start now, I can say it again imdiately."
Every word and sentence stabbed Wen Bo at his unavoidable weak spots, rendering him powerless.
Wen Bo’s weakness was all too apparent.
He didn’t have Gu Yuan’s audacity, nor her wealth, nor her boldness to act and speak freely, thus he was destined always to be led by the nose by Gu Yuan in any matter.
