Tyrannical Tycoon Haunts Me Relentlessly-Chapter 51 I never liked to use words

The banquet was set to begin at seven in the evening.

Just after seven, the banquet hall was already brightly lit, and lively. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Tonight, is Old Master Gu and Old Madam Gu’s wedding anniversary.

Decades have passed like this, but the Old Master and Madam that everyone sees now, are still as loving as ever.

Just after seven, the Old Master and the Old Madam were together, socializing in the banquet hall.

Xia Yinian, however, wasn’t in a good mood today, and was strolling idly in the courtyard as night fell.

It’s the Old Couple’s wedding anniversary, and I heard the main event doesn’t start until eight, so she didn’t need to go over so early.

Mainly, because Gu Ziqi and Gu Qingqing were playing enthusiastically with a group of girls in the banquet hall.

Xia Yinian wasn’t scared of them; she just didn’t want to waste her own time dealing with those people.

Therefore, she firmly decided not to go until eight o’clock.

It’s true, the Gu Family mansion is very big, very big indeed. Walking around the yard alone and after passing a few long corridors, you could almost get lost.

Gradually, Xia Yinian no longer knew where she had walked to, only to realize when she snapped out of her daze that she had entered an unknown long corridor.

Moving forward, she didn’t know what courtyard it would lead to.

You have to understand, the Gu Family’s estate is almost as big as a large village; walking further, she definitely wouldn’t make it back before eight.

She turned to retrace her steps, but while turning around, she bumped right into a firm chest.

A whiff of a familiar scent scared her into retreating two steps back hastily.

Once she clearly saw the figure standing in front of her, she knew retreating two steps wasn’t going to solve the problem.

Without uttering a sound, she turned to run!

But this time, she clearly couldn’t escape; Chi He was standing at the other end of the corridor, blocking her only way out!

Xia Yinian’s face drained of color from fright, and after a moment of hesitation, she lifted her skirt intending to climb onto the corridor’s railing.

"Below is an unfathomably deep pond, are you sure you want to jump down?" A low voice sounded.

The voice, along with his footsteps, was drawing near.

Xia Yinian’s chest was heaving, from being too nervous, too panicked!

There’s actually a pond below! She had unknowingly walked to a corridor above the pond!

Most importantly, since when was this man walking behind her? She didn’t notice him at all!

Before Xia Yinian could decide whether or not to jump into the pond, Gu Beicheng’s tall figure had already arrived in front of her.

Panicked, Xia Yinian instinctively stepped back and bumped into a stone pillar behind her with a thud.

"Seventh Young Master, what a... coincidence?"

"I don’t think it’s a coincidence, I came specifically to find you," Gu Beicheng’s thin lips curved up, a shallow smile.

Under the moonlight, his smile at the corner of his lips was so beautiful it made everything else around pale in comparison.

But in Xia Yinian’s heart, the better-looking his smile, the more frightening his presence!

He took a step forward, and she immediately wanted to step back.

But behind her was a solid stone pillar, with absolutely no room to retreat.

Suddenly, with her chin growing tense, his long fingers landed gently on her chin, effortlessly lifting her face.

"Seventh Young Master!" Xia Yinian wanted to stop it, but she couldn’t at all.

Her hands were on his wrist, trying to push him away, but he was pinching her chin so tight!

The more she pushed, the more it just hurt her own chin.

In the end, Xia Yinian gave up: "Seventh Young Master, let’s talk this over nicely."

"I’ve never liked using words," the man spoke with a chilly tone.

Xia Yinian felt a glimmer of hope and quickly said, "Well, if Seventh Young Master has nothing to say, then... I’ll be leaving first."
