Su Qianxun called Ye Gu to ask him what Long Sijue was doing. Ye Gu said that Long Sijue was in the middle of a meeting, and the young woman felt a little more relieved after hearing what he said. She hesitated for a while before asking Ye Gu if it was convenient for him to fetch her back to Jin Garden.
Her body was currently covered in blood. If she took the public bus like that, she would definitely scare other people. Even if she wanted to take a taxi, no one would want to fetch her as well.
Ye Gu immediately agreed. He arrived at the hospital in less than half an hour. When he saw that the young woman was covered in blood, he quickly walked over and grabbed her as he asked, “Are you hurt?”
“No, no, I’m fine. This is another person’s blood… Can we talk about this after we get into the car?” Su Qianxun immediately replied.
Ye Gu carefully scrutinized her body again, and he only felt at ease after he was certain that she was not hurt. He then pulled her along as they walked in the direction of his car.
In a dark corner somewhere, a black silhouette was holding a camera and stealthily taking photographs of the two of them.
“Who is it1?” Ye Gu suddenly let go of Su Qianxun and sprinted in the direction of the silhouette. The person immediately sprinted off.
Su Qianxun also ran after Ye Gu. She stared nervously at Ye Gu. “What’s going on?”
“Nothing, let’s go back.” Ye Gu’s gaze was as sharp as a knife as he looked around the place. He then grabbed Su Qianxun and continued walking towards the car.
Su Qianxun was sitting in the car when she opened her bag gloomily. She looked at the 2,000 RMB left from the 7,000 thousand RMB which she got from pawning off the necklace.
Fortunately, it was still enough to buy the materials required to make a necktie. So, she could start making Long Sijue’s birthday present without delay.
Su Qianxun’s mother was a fashion designer, and she had personally designed and made clothing items for all her family members. Influenced by her, Su Qianxun also knew how to sew. Hence, making a necktie was not difficult for her.
Ye Gu brought Su Qianxun to a hotel so that she could shower and change into a new set of clothes. They then left the hotel together.
When they returned to the car once again, Su Qianxun noticed that Ye Gu’s expression was abnormal. She looked out of the car and asked, “What’s wrong, Ye Gu?”
“Nothing.” Ye Gu glanced at her before starting the engine and drove off. All along, he had a feeling that someone was following them, but he could not identify the exact location of that person. It was certainly not an ordinary person since he had no way of discovering him or her.
After they returned to Jin Garden, Su Qianxun said, “Thank you so much for today.”
“Don’t mention it. You can always give me a call if anything happens to you.” Ye gu was expressionless as he stared ahead and maneuvered the steering wheel, hiding his true feelings.
Su Qianxun got out of the car and entered Jin Garden. Upon entering the place, she suddenly felt a little uneasy. She furrowed her eyebrows. ‘What’s going on?’
“Miss, why are you only home at this hour? The young master is in his study room, and he seems quite unhappy. The butler was scolded by him when he went and asked him to come out for dinner,” Huan Huan whispered.
Su Qianxun’s eyebrows were furrowed even tighter together. She passed her backpack to Huan Huan and said, “Put this away for me. I’ll go and make a bowl of noodles for him.”
In the study room.
The ashtray before Long Sijue was already filled with cigarette butts. His gaze was fixed on his cell phone, which displayed a photograph of Ye Gu fetching Su Qianxun from the hospital.
The resolution of the photograph was very high. The pictures were chronological. In the first one, Su Qianxun’s clothes were covered in blood. In the second one, she was making a call. In the third one, Ye Gu had come to fetch her. And in the last one, both of them were leaving together.
Long Sijue took a long drag of his cigarette again and threw the cell phone towards the wall. The poor cell phone smashed onto the wall, and its screen was shattered into pieces.
The entire study room smelled like smoke when Su Qianxun walked in with two bowls of noodles. The young woman glanced at the expressionless man who was sitting behind the desk as she placed the two bowls of noodles on the desk.
Long Sijue suddenly stood up and went beside Su Qianxun. He grabbed her wrist, dragged her towards the desk and pinned her down on the desk…
