Chapter 345: You Like Ji Chi?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

She was familiar with such a gaze; Third Young Master always looked at her with that kind of gaze.

In that gaze, she knew she was loved.

“Where is this?” freewe bnovel .com

“My bedroom,” Lu Zhiyuan said. Outside the window, the sky had turned a shade of orange. Gu Ci tilted her head, calmly taking a deep breath. She cherished his presence, finding solace beside him. “How do you feel?” “Hungry…” Gu Ci only felt dizzy and hungry.

Lu Zhiyuan walked over, picked up a bowl of warm soup that had been simmering. Gu Ci sat up, leaning against soft pillows. Her intravenous drip was not yet finished; she glanced at the IV bag—it still had two more hours to go. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝘯𝘰𝘷ℯ𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝑚

“This is chicken soup I made in the kitchen. Have a little.”

Gu Ci’s long hair fell gently on her shoulders, making her face appear even smaller. She looked like a girl who had been abused for a long time, and it was heart-wrenching. Lu Zhiyuan blew on the spoonful of chicken soup and brought it to her lips.

Gu Ci hesitated for a moment, her gaze fixed on him in silence. The scent of the chicken soup filled her nostrils, and their eyes seemed to entwine, like honey continuously wrapping around, sweet and sticky.

She couldn’t help but open her mouth and silently drank a bowl of chicken soup.

She hated herself. Why did she faint when she saw Lu Zhiyuan? She had promised him that she would see a doctor and take care of herself, but now the pretense had been exposed.

She was like a brightly colored flower from afar, but in reality, her roots were rotting.

After drinking the soup, Lu Zhiyuan brought a bowl of porridge. He fed her slowly. Gu Ci kept her eyes down, never looking at him, quietly eating the porridge. The burning sensation of hunger finally eased.

“Cici, you’re a doctor. Do you know why you fainted?” Lu Zhiyuan asked.

Gu Ci knew full well. She didn’t do it on purpose. She wanted to rest well, but she couldn’t sleep. She wanted to eat properly, but she had no appetite. Her body didn’t obey her brain’s commands. She could only watch herself day by day, getting thinner and falling into the abyss.

Physician, heal thyself. It had been true since ancient times.

She didn’t want to fall ill in front of Lu Zhiyuan. She didn’t want him to see her weak side, as if she were seeking sympathy. All her self-esteem and pain were laid bare before him.

She felt embarrassed and regretful.

“My problems are none of Third Master’s concern,” Gu Ci raised her head, her gaze clear. “It has nothing to do with you.”

Lu Zhiyuan put down the bowl heavily, looking annoyed. “Self-deception. Dr. North has been with you during your time in Paris. Have you sought help?”

“Let bygones be bygones. Whether I live or die, it has nothing to do with Third Master,” Gu Ci said coldly, then calmly added, “I’ve done as you wished, no longer bothering you. Isn’t that enough?”

“Cici, tell me, what do you want?” Lu Zhiyuan compromised.

“Lu Zhiyuan, what do you want? Do you want me to leave? Are you the one tangled up in this now? What do you want?” Gu Ci’s eyes were red, “The best ex should be as silent as the dead, not entangled, and you shouldn’t show me that you care for me so much. You can’t love me, so stay away from me. Whether 1 go crazy or die, it has nothing to do with you.”

Lu Zhiyuan was calmer than Gu Ci. “Cici, when 1 left you, it was because I hoped you would live well. I wanted you to seek treatment, let go of everything, and as long as you recover, your life will be smooth sailing. Promise me, go for treatment, don’t give up on yourself.”

“I won’t give up on myself.” Gu Ci covered her head in pain, continuously patting her own head. Lu Zhiyuan suddenly embraced her, holding her wrist tightly.

Tears welled up in Gu Ci’s eyes as she looked at him. “Lu Zhiyuan, I want to live.”

She didn’t want Lu Zhiyuan to die either!

Lu Zhiyuan held her tightly, almost squeezing the breath out of Gu Ci. She was the girl he loved to the bone, the person he was willing to exchange his life for. He had naively thought that his death could bring about her rebirth.

But he had failed!

They were at a dead end, walking on a path of no return.

All the grievances, longing, and obsession Gu Ci had accumulated over the past few years poured out in Lu Zhiyuan’s embrace. Gu Ci suddenly kissed him, a passionate kiss filled with her tears and despair.

The two of them tangled on the bed, and Lu Zhiyuan couldn’t resist her kiss. Gu Ci bit him fiercely, drawing blood. “Lu Zhiyuan, if you want to love me for a lifetime, 1 can leave you, but if you ever change your mind, I will definitely kill you!”

That was her ultimate bottom line!

“You fool!” Lu Zhiyuan licked the blood from his lips, his expression both demonic and determined. If he were to change his mind, would he still be entangled in this tragic affair with Gu Ci?

Gu Ci remained unconscious, and Qin Wan circled around in the Black Hawk. Li Jiang couldn’t stay with her for long as he had something to attend to. Qin Wan didn’t need his company either. In the evening, she went up to the rooftop, where she could watch the sunset. She wasn’t afraid of the cold, sitting on the railing, swinging her legs, and lighting a cigarette. She also took a few photos of the sunset.

She hadn’t expected that one day she would be on the rooftop of the Black Hawk headquarters, watching the sunset. The last time she was in this area, it was to kill Xiao Min.

Hmm, to kill Xiao Min!

She had to take care of that before returning to her home country. She couldn’t delay it any longer.

She heard footsteps behind her, and Qin Wan turned her head to see Rong Li. She had a cigarette between her fingers, and interestingly, Rong Li had one too. They exchanged a glance.

“Why are you here?” Rong Li blurted out.

“I’m waiting for Gu Ci. I’m not here to wander around your headquarters or steal secrets,” Qin Wan blew a smoke ring, her tone irritated.

Bad luck!

Rong Li also felt unlucky. The rooftop was his private space, and he had a bad temper, easily angered and prone to outbursts. Occasionally, he would come to the rooftop to smoke and cool down.

Unexpectedly, someone else had taken his spot.

He turned to leave but then thought again. This was his territory; why should he leave?

Rong Li swaggered over, and both of them sat on the rooftop, smoking. Qin Wan frowned, finished one cigarette, and lit another. Rong Li thought to himself that this girl had quite a heavy smoking habit.

“I heard that Xiao Min betrayed us because she fell in love with you?”

“Do you actually believe that gossip?”

“She said it herself,” Qin Wan leaned against a post, propped up her legs, and asked casually, “She infiltrated for several years, loyal and capable. You must be quite skilled to make her betray the Triad. A honey trap?”

Rong Li turned his head and smiled. With the cigarette in his hand, he exuded a unique charm. “Is it possible that I offered a better price when you guys didn’t pay her enough?”

“Can money buy someone’s loyalty?”

“It can!” Rong Li said, “Money is all-powerful. If it doesn’t buy loyalty, it’s because you didn’t offer enough!”

Qin Wan disagreed. In her eyes, Rong Li was as good as dead. He and Xiao Min were going to die together. Qin Wan had seen Rong Li’s file; he was just a student. Although he was secretly trained by Jiang Junlin, he still hadn’t connected Qin Wan to the assassin from that day.

“Let’s gossip a bit. You and Ji Chi are good buddies. My boss killed your whole family, yet Ji Chi had an affair with my boss.. Why haven’t you severed ties with Ji Chi?”
