Gong Jue’s heart seemed to have been pulled from hell to heaven in an instant.
However, in the next second, when he saw clearly who had taken the bullet for Gu Qiqi, his expression suddenly darkened!
That day, the man in the green gown held Gu Qiqi tightly with both arms, his back facing the direction of the bullet.
The bullet pierced through his heart. Due to inertia, he couldn’t help but throw himself at Gu Qiqi. Even though he forced himself not to fall, his body still pressed down heavily, and his chin bumped into Gu Qiqi’s shoulder.
From Gong Jue’s perspective, it looked like two people were hugging each other intimately!
Chu Junmo!
It was actually Chu Junmo who had saved his woman.
Moreover… he had hugged his woman!
Gong Jue had mixed feelings!
At this moment.
The stage was already in chaos.
Chu Junmo suddenly appeared and hugged Gu Qiqi. Before many people knew what had happened, the people facing Chu Junmo exclaimed in unison,
“CEO Chu, what’s your relationship with Young Lady Qiqi? Are you… going to announce your relationship?”
“CEO Chu, aren’t you on a business trip overseas? Didn’t the Chu Corporation say that you can’t participate in this competition personally? You won’t be able to make it back in time even if you’re in the finals.”
“So, CEO Chu, did you fly back from overseas just to give Young Lady Qiqi a victorious hug? How romantic…!”
“So… President Chu, are you the legendary sugar daddy behind Young Lady Qiqi… an old man?”
Everyone was gossiping endlessly.
Gong Jue’s expression turned as dark as the bottom of a pot!
He was the… real “old man” behind Gu Qiqi!
However, he really couldn’t blame everyone for gossiping. At this moment, from the front, Gu Qiqi’s petite figure was completely covered by Chu Junmo. The two of them hugged each other on stage in an ambiguous manner.
Chu Junmo smiled dotingly.
Gu Qiqi’s back was facing everyone. She didn’t move at all!
She didn’t know if she was enjoying the intimate embrace of a big CEO, or if she had been pleasantly surprised by the big CEO and had fainted from the shock.
In short, it was hard not to think the wrong way when one saw this scene.
Until…
Gu Qiqi finally moved. Her voice trembled as she asked, “Brother Chu, why are you back? You… why are you so silly…”
Why had he foolishly stepped forward to shield her from the bullet?
Chu Junmo’s lips curved up slightly. “Yes, I’m back. Although something happened previously, I’ve already resolved it. I want to thank you for being so outstanding. You rushed into the finals and gave me a chance to watch your finals live… Qiqi, you’re really outstanding. You’re amazing… I promised that I would fight alongside you. I’ll never go back on my word… unless I die…”
He would never go back on his word!
Unless I die!
Tears welled up in Gu Qiqi’s eyes. “Brother Chu, don’t say that you want to die! You can’t! Don’t… don’t move. Let me treat your wound… does it hurt a lot?”
Chu Junmo smiled and shook his head. “It doesn’t hurt. It doesn’t hurt when I look at you.”
Gu Qiqi reached behind him and reached out. Her hand was warm and sticky!
Blood had already soaked through his back! His clothes!
The bullet had hit him in the middle of his back. It had probably hit his heart.
Chu Junmo had a serious congenital heart disease to begin with. She knew this best. Back in Qing City, he had almost died of a heart attack. This time, he was actually injured in the most vulnerable area of his body.
Gu Qiqi, who never cried easily, was so anxious that her tears began to fall.
Finally, the judges and the members of the three teams all came back to their senses. They saw a pool of scarlet on Chu Junmo’s back.
“Oh my god, how could there be a gunshot wound?! There clearly wasn’t a gunshot!”
“It’s a silencer!”
“Does anyone want to kill Qiqi?”
“Where’s security? Security! Catch the murderer…”
“No, emergency treatment. Emergency treatment is more important. CEO Chu has lost so much blood. I wonder if he can still be saved…”
