Endless Fall-Chapter 235 - Her Diary

235 Her Diary

Her exceptionally serious expression made Gu Quan laugh.

“Are you guys free tomorrow?” His voice made both of them look at him at the same time. “Let’s go take a look at them together.”

“I’m afraid not tomorrow.”

“Another time.” Pei Yilan had to visit the filming crew tomorrow and was not free. “We have been quite busy recently.”

“Okay.” Gu Quan was not in a hurry.

When he looked at Lin Jiao, Yuan Teng happened to see the gentleness in his eyes.

“Brother Quan.” He sensed that something was wrong and subconsciously wanted to confirm his thoughts. “Where did you raise the cats?” 𝐟𝓇𝒆𝐞w𝐞𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝐞𝒍. c𝐨𝒎

“Near my house.”

“I see.”

Gu Quan looked at him. Even if he did not speak, the other party could feel the warning.

He raised his chin to his left. “Uncle Song seems to be looking for you. Aren’t you going over?”

Yuan Teng left unhappily.

He originally wanted to ask Song Zhen about it, but there were too many guests around, so he could only give up and chat with them.

“Brother Quan.” Tang Manxi, who was also on the invitation list, arrived late. She was wearing a heavy gauze dress as she ran towards them.

Like a butterfly that had found its habitat, she could not hide her smile and said, “I’ve been looking for you for a long time.”

Gu Quan’s gentleness was replaced by annoyance.

He moved closer to Lin Jiao and tried to distance himself from Tang Manxi. “Are you alone?”

“My parents are here too.” She pointed at the middle-aged couple talking to the Song couple and said, “Tang Ni is sleeping at home.”

Lin Jiao and Pei Yilan were stunned when they heard Tang Ni’s name. They secretly sized up Tang Manxi.

“Isn’t Ni at Bo Yu club?” Pei Yilan lowered her voice.

Lin Jiao gave her a look. “Don’t be anxious.” She took the initiative to ask casually, “Is it Tang Ni from Lin University?”

“No.” Seeing that they were friends with Gu Quan, Tang Manxi’s attitude was good. “We only came to Lin City at the end of last year.”

“Are you talking about your relatives?”

“My sister.” She forgot to hide her disgust for a moment when she talked about Tang Ni. “She’s just my half-sister.”

Lin Jiao did not ask further.

She looked at Mr. Song, who was speaking on stage. When he finished his speech with a thank you, Lin Jiao said goodbye to Gu Quan.

“I’ll send you out.” Gu Quan followed the two of them and walked to the elevator unhurriedly.

He didn’t step into the elevator, but stared at the fading smile. “Be careful on your way back.”

The moonlight wrapped around the two figures as they walked away from the wedding banquet hall that was filled with insincerity.

In the early hours of the morning, the lights were still on in the villa in Fu Lu Bay.

Gu Quan, who was drunk, unbuttoned his collar and returned to his room to take a shower.

Ever since Su Tian was chased out, he had gotten someone to disinfect the house from inside out. The matter of renovating the master bedroom was also brought forward.

So during this period of time, he had been staying in Lin Jiao’s previous room and even moved his clothes over.

He came out with a towel wrapped around him. Just as he lay down on the soft bed, the phone on the bedside table vibrated.

He picked up immediately. “Who is this?”

“Quan, it’s me.” Su Tian’s sobbing voice came from the receiver. “Can you help me? I can’t hold on anymore.”

“I’m busy.”

“Only you can…”

“Miss Su.” Gu Quan interrupted her. He didn’t have the energy to continue arguing with her. “If you harass me again, I’ll call the police.”

With that, he hung up.

Su Tian, who was hiding in the washroom, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and tried again, but the call did not go through.

“You’re not done yet?” A male voice came from outside the door, scaring her so much that she subconsciously shivered.

“I’m done.” She quickly turned off the screen and looked at the man with tears in her eyes. “I’m not feeling well.”

“Where?”

“My arms and legs hurt.”

“It’s fine. It’s not gonna kill you.” He held her waist and walked out, approaching the other man sitting on the sofa.

The sound of crying and moaning filled the cramped environment.

Next time, she endured the pain and walked to the elevator door in a dejected mood.

“Why are you so slow?” Xiao Song stubbed out his cigarette and looked at her with disdain and impatience.

Perhaps because she really couldn’t take it anymore, Su Tian cried about everything that happened last night and begged, “I want to rest for a few days.”

In the past two weeks, the clients she met seemed to come with the intention of torturing her to death, each one more ruthless than the last.

She couldn’t take it anymore.

“There’s another client tonight.” Xiao Song did not intend to let her rest immediately. “You can rest after accompanying him.”

...

“How can I accompany him in this state?”

“He won’t mind.”

Su Tian bit her lower lip and wished she could buy a plane ticket to escape Lin City and never come back.

She took a deep breath. “Then how long can I rest?”

“Three days.”

“Can you add two more days?”

“No.” Xiao Song tapped his fingers on the screen and sneered. “Don’t play tricks on me.”

Su Tian did not dare to say anything and sat silently at the side.

She followed Xiao Song’s instructions and changed into a dress as the sun set. Then, she went to another starred hotel with him.

The sun rose and the long night ended.

After getting a chance to rest, she returned to her apartment and slept until evening. Unwilling to give up, she headed to Lu Fu Bay.

...

“Miss Su, are you here to look for Mr. Gu?” The nanny stood at the door and did not let her in.

“Is he at home?”

“Yes, please wait a moment.” She went upstairs to inform Gu Quan before coming back down and telling her apologetically, “Mr. Gu wants you to go back.”

The smile on Su Tian’s lips became even more bitter.

She blocked the door that was about to close. “Tell him that I have Lin Jiao’s diary.”

Just as she had expected, Gu Quan appeared in front of her for a diary that belonged to Lin Jiao.

He walked straight to the stone table in the yard and sat down opposite her. “Where’s the diary?”

“I have one condition.”

“Tell me.”

His cold expression shattered Su Tian’s last illusion. Even her dream of being a rich wife had been dashed.

She just wanted to get out of this place where she’d been tortured. “I want ten million.”

“Do you think I am a magician who can turn paper into money?”

“I know you have money.”

“Yes, I have.” Gu Quan paused for a moment. He was not led by the nose like she thought. “But I won’t give it to you.”

“Don’t you want to know what she wrote?”

“It’s not important.” He took out his cigarette box. “My relationship with Jiaojiao has recovered a lot. I can ask her directly if I’m curious.”

“I don’t believe you.” Su Tian tried to find traces of lying on his face. “Since it’s not important, why did you come out?”

“Is there a problem with me helping Lin Jiao take back what’s hers?” Gu Quan raised his eyebrows. His emotions really did not change.

He held the cigarette in his mouth. “Forget it if you don’t want to give it to me.”

Seeing that he was about to leave, Su Tian panicked.
