Chapter 345: Chapter 345 Ayun, you are so cruel_1
“Okay, on my way!”
I immediately replied to his text message.
Then, I turned off my phone, my heartbeat inexplicably quickening.
At that moment, I felt a rush of blood to my head, leaving a blank space.
As for what Gu Yuanzhou had said earlier about my parents, I had long since forgotten it.
When I walked out of the restroom,
Gu Yuanzhou was on a call, though I didn’t know who it was from.
He stood by the window, facing the distant night sky.
His voice was low; I only caught a few words,
“Have you located his whereabouts? Understood, I’ll be cautious… This is still my turf, don’t worry, he can’t stir up much trouble! If I were afraid of him, I wouldn’t carry the Gu surname.”
Even though I didn’t know who he was talking to, the subject of the conversation seemed somewhat related to me.
Could it be that our actions this evening had been discovered?
However, Gu Yuanzhou’s tone was quite arrogant.
Did he know there was danger yet dared to barge in here regardless?
But in this brief moment of distraction, before I could react, he had already hung up the phone and turned to look at me.
I stood still without moving.
He walked towards me step by step,
“Why do you look so pale?”
“Uh… I, I’ve been a bit malnourished recently. The doctor says I’m not eating enough.”
He grabbed my hand, and feeling its coolness, he unbuttoned his shirt and placed my hand on his chest.
Using the warmth of his skin to warm my hands.
This subtle gesture, something he often did when we were passionately in love before.
Especially in winter, when I would get cold hands and feet, it was his way of warming them for me.
For an instant, I felt slightly dazed.
The cellphone in my pocket vibrated again.
I immediately snapped back to reality.
“Gu Yuanzhou, I haven’t eaten anything tonight; take me to grab something to eat, and I’d like to look at the stars while we’re at it.”
“Okay, let’s go!”
He didn’t hesitate much, nor did he show any suspicion. He picked up his suit jacket from the back of the chair, draped it over me, and took my hand as we walked out.
At the entrance of the restaurant, I stopped,
“I heard the gazebo in the backyard is a good spot for stargazing. Why don’t we dine in the backyard instead? We came here to enjoy the rural scenery, right?”
Gu Yuanzhou didn’t hesitate either, nodding in agreement with my suggestion,
“Sure, let’s go with your preference then!”
After ordering our meal, Gu Yuanzhou led me towards the backyard.
The hotel covered a vast area; besides the main building, there was a large area of separate courtyards behind it. frёeωebɳovel.com
The so-called gazebo required about a ten-minute walk to reach a dining area, with a few tables set up inside the gazebo.
The tables were lit with candlelight, reflecting off the stars in the sky, and the setting was quite elegant.
Indeed, the place was secluded; other than the two of us, there were no other guests.
After the server delivered our meal, they left promptly.
Red wine, steak…
Once we sat down, I subtly picked up my cellphone and glanced at it; it was a text message from Song Siwen.
“Get out now!”
This was the code he sent me.
He wanted to extricate me, so later it could all be explained away as an accident.
After receiving the text, I immediately stood up.
“Uh, I drank too much water earlier; I need to use the restroom.”
I had only taken a few steps when Gu Yuanzhou suddenly reached out and grabbed my hand,
“Ayun!”
He whispered my name softly.
“Hmm?”
“Do you hate me in your heart?”
My heart tightened and my breath stalled.
“Gu Yuanzhou, what are you talking about? Let go of me, I need to go to the restroom!”
He didn’t say anything else; he just chuckled lightly, his laughter tinged with a hint of melancholy.
Then, he released his grip,
“There are more wild animals over there, be careful and shout for me if you’re in danger.”
“Hmm!”
I responded casually and then ran toward the restroom.
All the way there, I was so panicked I didn’t even care when branches caught my clothes; I just kept running wildly.
I even fell at one point, skinning the palms of my hands.
But I still stood up strongly and staggered toward the restroom.
In my panic, I went the wrong way.
Actually, I had forgotten which way I had gone; I just looked around and, not seeing the restroom, sat down on the spot.
After a while, I heard some noise in the distance and hurriedly stood up to go back.
That road seemed so long as I stumbled along for ages.
I’m not sure if it was because my body was too weak or because it was too dark to see, but I fell several times.
I got up and continued walking.
Finally, I arrived back at the pavilion.
What I saw next was a chilling sight.
It was Song Siwen calling for two companions; they were holding knives and assaulting Gu Yuanzhou…
Because I was too far away, I couldn’t see clearly, my heart was racing, and my eyes were blurring.
By the time I staggered closer,
I only saw Gu Yuanzhou holding a knife, having already stabbed Song Siwen to death in a pool of blood.
And at that moment, the sound of police sirens pierced the night from afar.
Seeing Song Siwen fall into the pool of blood after being stabbed, with blood splattering everywhere…
The bloody scene left me stunned.
After a long while, I staggered forward, “Gu Yuanzhou… stop!”
When Gu Yuanzhou turned to look at me, his face was covered in blood, even his eyes were blood red.
His blood-soaked hand grasped my collar, and his angry voice roared in my ears, deafening.
“You actually set me up, called these people to kill me!! Ayun, Ayun, are you my Ayun? No, you’re not! Did the Ding Family make you do this? Do you believe I would kill every single one of the Ding Family?”
He clutched my throat tightly.
At that moment, I was extremely afraid.
It wasn’t that I feared he would kill me.
In fact, I hadn’t planned on living to return today, so it wouldn’t matter if he killed me.
But I was afraid he would take revenge on the Ding Family.
“Don’t, Gu Yuanzhou, don’t do this! It’s all my fault, I’m the one who laid the trap, I wanted you dead. Kill me then!”
I picked the knife up from the ground and pushed it into Gu Yuanzhou’s hand.
I looked up at him.
“Kill me, go ahead and kill me!”
One hand was choking my throat, while the other still held the knife to my head.
The cold blade was against my ear, and I could feel its iciness…
However, he ultimately did not strike; he threw the knife to the ground,
“Ayun, you actually want me dead! How vicious you are!”
This sentence was filled with desolation!
Losing his grip on me, I collapsed to the ground.
Before I could catch my breath, a flood of police burst in and captured Gu Yuanzhou.
