Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife-Chapter 1017: Finally Met (9)
"Alright, let them get out of the car and take the child away. I’m not so heartless as to kill innocent children," said Su Yixia.
Anthony trembled all over as he climbed out of the sports car.
Seeing that he could barely walk, Zhuang Haoran lifted him up and carried him on his back.
Secretary Li pointed out a path for them to leave.
"Miss Gu—" the boy on Zhuang Haoran’s back said, feeling immensely ashamed.
Gu Nuan just nodded slightly at the two of them.
Zhuang Haoran gritted his teeth, carrying the child through the narrow passage cleared between the trucks.
On the phone, Su Yixia said, "I’ve agreed to your terms. Where’s the property deed of the Ruan Family?"
"I want to see him."
The breathing on the other end of the line was heavy, like a hammer, ready to swing down and chop off Gu Nuan’s head at any moment.
Gu Nuan wasn’t entirely without nerves, but she knew clearly that the other side would yield. Because money, to them, was more important than her husband.
That was the difference.
"Get a car and bring her here!" Su Yixia decided, slamming the receiver down.
Secretary Li, feeling quite apprehensive, carefully arranged for a sedan to pick up Gu Nuan.
The car drove for nearly three to four hours, and as dawn approached, it turned into a rural path and arrived in front of a secluded single building.
Driving, Secretary Li occasionally glanced back at Gu Nuan.
Gu Nuan looked rather pale, her face devoid of color, but her spirit remained bright and not weary.
Upon arrival, after getting out of the car, bodyguards naturally lined both sides of the path.
Gu Nuan walked forward, eyes straight ahead, seemingly unprepared to escape from there.
Inside, as the footsteps outside neared, Su Yixia’s lips twitched slightly.
She was here.
This was truly an interesting scene.
Secretary Li opened the door.
Gu Nuan walked in, seeing a room decorated in that typical European country style, with basic wooden and iron furniture, possessing a rustic and natural color.
Footsteps approached.
Gu Nuan looked up and saw Su Yixia descending the steps with a blind cane.
This classmate of hers had always been a beauty since childhood, so much so that even when blind, wearing a white dress, she still appeared as beautiful and enchanting as a saint.
Descending the last step, Su Yixia opened her eyelids.
Gu Nuan stared straight at her and felt that even though Su Yixia claimed she couldn’t see, her eyes looked perfectly fine, still full of charm.
She must have been to the best doctors and had surgery done.
"Surprised, aren’t you, Classmate Gu?" Su Yixia said with a sense of pleasure as if she sensed her calm, "My luck seems better than yours. No choice, beauty has its advantages."
"Of course, for some women, selling their looks is the only way to make money."
"Gu—Nuan!"
Gu Nuan settled on the nearest sofa and sat down before Su Yixia could speak, calmly saying, "So easily angered? Isn’t it just a joke among classmates?"
Su Yixia took a deep breath, then gestured for everyone unrelated to leave.
Secretary Li stood guarded at the connection between the living room and the kitchen.
Su Yixia walked to an armchair opposite Gu Nuan and, after finding the direction, sat down.
Gu Nuan looked her directly in the face.
Su Yixia said, "Alright, hand over what you have."
"You obviously know that house is important, either someone told you, or you eavesdropped. Let me guess, who are the people supporting you?"
Su Yixia’s lips curved slightly: "If you can guess who they are, then you should know how powerful my support is."
"Regardless of your powerful backing, let me see him."
Su Yixia’s expression changed: "That’s enough, Gu Nuan! Do you take me for a fool? Let you see him? I’ll never let you see him!"
Gu Nuan lightly tapped the armrest of the sofa: "Alright, then you don’t want the house."
"You should understand, now it’s you who needs me, not me who needs you, kneel before me!"
Gu Nuan raised her eyebrows.
Apparently, her calm demeanor only infuriated her more: "Gu Nuan, what gives you the right to see him, to have him?"
"He’s my husband."
"But you’re my classmate! You and he deceived me!"
Well now, suddenly speaking of classmate sentiment?
Gu Nuan sneered non-stop: "You say we’re classmates? You accuse me of deceiving you, who deceived whom first?"
"You deceived me! You knew I liked him, yet you hid it from me, you were with him, you married him, you always secretly laughed at me, don’t think I didn’t know, you heartless person!"
"Got the order wrong, didn’t you. Besides, do you truly love him?"
"Of course, no one loves him more than I do," Su Yixia said with steely determination.
"If you love him, is this how you imprison him? How about I help you post about this in our alumni circle and let everyone know how much you love him, how about that?"
Su Yixia’s face flushed red, then she took a deep breath, stood up, and said, "Alright, seeing him once won’t change anything."
Gu Nuan cautiously squinted her eyes.
Su Yixia gestured for Secretary Li to come up.
Secretary Li said to Gu Nuan, "Please follow me."
Gu Nuan got up and followed, walking up the stairs. After reaching the third floor, Secretary Li opened the door ahead.
In that moment, it was as if time and space transcended, she finally saw him.
