Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 304: Three Terms of Agreement

Previously, when we were in the group, Li Ru only made some indirect remarks that were irrelevant, so ignoring them was enough.

But not long after Shen Hanyin came out of danger, she had gone to the hospital, and just thinking about it made Cheng Qingyuan very uncomfortable.

After working together for so many years, he knew roughly what kind of character Shen Hanyin had.

She must be feeling very wronged!

Gu Ningyue quietly observed Cheng Qingyuan’s expression and said softly, "So, can you do me a favor?"

Cheng Qingyuan looked up, "What?"

Gu Ningyue smiled slightly and whispered a plan she had long thought of, a sly light flashing in her eyes, "Can you?"

Cheng Qingyuan was silent for two seconds, "Okay, just that this matter, I hope only the two of us know about it."

Gu Ningyue nodded with a smile, "Of course. After all... I don’t want to cause trouble for myself either."

After discussing some related matters briefly, Gu Ningyue got up and left the café.

"—Han Yin, wait for Li Ru to apologize to you tomorrow!"

In the hospital, Shen Hanyin stared at the WeChat message sent by Gu Ningyue, bewildered, wondering what that girl had done now.

She sent a voice message to Gu Ningyue, but Gu Ningyue mysteriously did not explain, only telling her to wait quietly.

Incidentally, she told her not to let Li Ru off too easily tomorrow.

Of course, for Shen Hanyin, there’s a high chance that she couldn’t achieve that.

She wasn’t a ruthless person, otherwise she wouldn’t have been friends with the original owner for so many years.

What she had more of than the original owner was rationality.

Thinking this, Gu Ningyue drove back to the villa.

Ling Tianyou wasn’t back yet, and the empty villa was eerily quiet.

Gu Ningyue suddenly thought of that horror movie from the other day, and a chill ran down her spine.

After-effect! Definitely an after-effect.

Gu Ningyue practically dashed upstairs and opened her laptop.

At this time, she should definitely find something to do.

She had investigated some of Li Ru’s personal information when she left the hospital and found that Li Ru had done a lot more bad things than she’d anticipated.

Casually exposing some of it would be enough to make her unable to stay in the theater, but for so many years it just went unnoticed!

She logged onto a website, searched for some things, and sent some useful information to Cheng Qingyuan before closing the computer. "How is it not even seven o’clock?" Gu Ningyue looked at the clock on the wall, feeling that time was passing much slower than she had imagined: "Forget it, let’s find a movie to watch!"

Descending the stairs, Gu Ningyue sat on the sofa, but for some reason, even though the movie was not bad, her mind was still stuck on that horror film.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Ningyue hesitated before ultimately not being able to resist sending Ling Tianyou a WeChat message: "Are you off work yet?"

"Ding Dong—"

Ling Tianyou replied almost instantly, but the content of the instant reply left Gu Ningyue somewhat disappointed: "I have a meeting in a bit, what’s up?"

Gu Ningyue: "..."

What’s up? What could be up? She was just a bit scared being alone!

But how could she say that? It would be too embarrassing.

The top killer in the country Z, scared by a horror movie?

Gu Ningyue shook her head vigorously, no, she couldn’t embarrass herself like this.

She was just about to say ’It’s nothing,’ when another message popped up on the screen: "Don’t be afraid, I’ll definitely be back before eight. Want me to order you something to eat?"

"..."

Ling Tianyou was so thoughtful!

Perhaps because Ling Tianyou saw through her ’vulnerable’ side, the sense of fear that had been lingering around her almost disappeared.

"I’d like to have the steak we ordered that day."

"Okay."

"Ding Dong—You have received a transfer of 9,999 yuan."

Looking at this message, Gu Ningyue’s eyes sparkled, Please throw some applause in the public chat!

After ordering the food and eating to her heart’s content, Gu Ningyue changed her bandages and was satisfied lying on the sofa again.

At seven fifty, the sound of a car driving into the villa’s driveway reached her ears.

Gu Ningyue couldn’t help but feel a hint of joy in her heart, got up to open the door, and shortly after Ling Tianyou appeared, having locked the car and walked over: "Already changed into pajamas? Getting ready to sleep early?"

Gu Ningyue wore a silk nightgown, her beautiful face simply pleasing to the eye.

"Depends! I just changed early to be more comfortable is all." Gu Ningyue glanced at Ling Tianyou, his hands conspicuously empty, not carrying anything, it seemed that today he finally planned to sleep.

Just as she let out a breath of relief, she heard Ling Tianyou say with a teasing smile, "In a while, Uncle You will bring over some items I’ll need for my stay, at that time, maybe you can go to another room for a bit!"

The way Gu Ningyue looked in her nightgown was for her eyes only.

"You..." Gu Ningyue composed her words, trying hard not to let the urge to scold him flare up: "Isn’t that a bit too much trouble? After all, you wouldn’t be staying here for long anyway."

If Uncle You brought the things over, wouldn’t Ling Tianyou have to stay here every day in the future, she...

The thought of waking up in Ling Tianyou’s arms every morning, although... it was a nice feeling, it was also too risky,

After all, she didn’t believe there was a man in the world who could remain unmoved!

Right now, Ling Tianyou could restrain himself because she was injured, but what about when she healed?

No, even though she was a bit scared living alone right now, the thought of Ling Tianyou moving in with her made Gu Ningyue somewhat resistant.

Ultimately, it was because she wasn’t deeply in love yet!

"Who told you I wouldn’t be staying long? I’m staying here until you’re willing to come back with me!"

Ling Tianyou patted her shoulder and brushed past her into the villa.

Gu Ningyue unwilling to return with him was fine, as long as he could be with her it was good enough.

As for where, it wasn’t that important.

Gu Ningyue was exasperated, starting to reflect if she made the right decision in leaning on this big-shot!

This man, was he mooching off her?

Seeing Ling Tianyou on the sofa, unlatching his tie and ordering takeout, Gu Ningyue went over and sat angrily by his side, "Just to be clear, you can stay here. But now this is my house; we have to set up three rules!"

Since it was a settled matter, she naturally wanted to fight for the greatest freedom for herself!

Ling Tianyou raised his eyes, put down his phone, and leisurely gazed at the adorable Gu Ningyue, "Oh? You want to set three rules with me? Let’s hear them?"

Gu Ningyue took a deep breath, the way he looked at her was just like a teacher checking a student’s homework!

Did he just... not take her words seriously? Hmph, men!
