Xia Ning slowly opens her eyes. She feels that her head is painful and she is dizzy, as if her body is going to break down.
She slowly focuses her eyes and sees clearly what is in front of her. She strokes her head and looks around.
It is a very tidy room with the fragrance of cologne. Based on the setting of the room, the owner of it must lead a fine life.
Xia Ning widens her eyes!
Wait. The fragrance of the cologne…smells exactly the same as that on Gu Luan!
“You are awake?”
She hears the familiar voice. Xia Ning feels surprised. She turns to look at the direction of the voice.
Gu Luan sits there in casual clothes with a glass of amber drink. He quietly looks at her. But there is something else in the deep of his eyes.
“Director Gu, why am I here?” She remembers that she lost consciousness after she left the coffee shop. Did Gu Luan save her?
“You fainted in the lane. You are in my room now.” Gu Luan puts on a faint smile. His voice sounds calm without any waves.
“Oh…” Xia Ning strokes her forehead. As if she remembers something, she suddenly sits up, “Excuse me. I may leave now.”
God. She is in the room of another man. She is even sleeping on his bed! Though she is saved, if Rui knows, he will…”
Gu Luan darkens his eyes. He holds out his hand to draw her, “The effect of the medicine hasn’t gone away. You may lie for another while.”
Xia Ning shakes her head, “Director Gu, thank you for your help. However, it is really improper for me to stay here. It will cause misunderstandings. You said the effect of the medicine had not gone away. I want to go to the hospital to see a doctor.”
When she says, Xia Ning wants to push his hand away. But Gu Luan grasps her very forcefully.
“Misunderstandings?” Gu Luan lifts his lips to make a wired smile, “Yes. That is what I want.”
Xia Ning feels shocked to hear his words!
He wants to cause misunderstandings? She wonders whether she misheard.
How could Gu Luan say something like that?
Gu Luan is aware of Xia Ning’s confusion. He holds her more tightly, “I have told you many times. You should call me Luan instead of Director Gu!”
At the moment, there are fierce flames in Gu Luan’s eyes. It seems that they want to swallow Xia Ning as a whole. Xia Ning suddenly feels panic. Now, she feels that it is terribly wrong!
What does Gu Luan want to do?
“Director Gu, I don’t know what you want to do. Please let go. Please show some respect.”
Gu Luan cocks his head, “Show some respect? You will belong to me soon. You won’t want me to respect you later.”
A sense of horror pops up in Xia Ning’s heart. Gu Luan is obviously saying that he wants to rape her!
He holds her more and more forcefully. Xia Ning tries hard to calm herself down. She asks, “Director Gu, are you OK? Did you eat anything wrong…”
“I said. You should call me Luan!” Suddenly, Gu Luan shouts loudly. He adds more strength. Xia Ning cries in pain.
Xia Ning grits her teeth. She feels very afraid. Gu Luan has changed. He has changed so much that she can’t recognize him at all. She says, “Please don’t do this. Please let me go. It hurts.”
Gu Luan slightly screws his eyes. He loosens his hand a little. But he goes closer to Xia Ning and says word by word, “Xia Ning, I have a camera here. Later, whatever we do will be videoed. When I have time, I will appreciate the video.”
Camera?
Xia Ning takes a cold breath. She glances around. Gu Luan is really insane!
“Why do you do this? Why?”
“Why?” Gu Luan widens his eyes. He seems to speak the words from the gaps of his teeth, “Even since we were at Harvard University, I have been liking you. You may think about it. How much do you suffer after you married Yi Yunrui? That man is unable to protect you! He will bring pains and sorrows to you. Ning, I am the only man in this world who can protect you! Do you understand?”
At this moment, Xia Ning finally clearly understands what’s in Gu Luan’s mind.
Gu Luan was a senior schoolmate of her. She feels surprised that he has liked her for so long a time.
There is a camera in the room. She is under the control of Gu Luan. In the aspect of strength, she is inferior to Gu Luan…
Wait. She has her jewelry with her.
But after a second, Xia Ning feels her heart sink to the bottom. Her ring and bracelet are both taken away.
Gu Luan has made some preparation. Was what happened in the coffee shop also arranged by him?
“Did you tell Jiang Yongran to ask me out and poison my drink?”
Gu Luan blinks his eyes, “Yi Yunrui may love you very much. But he leaves you alone again and again and puts you in danger. He is unqualified to be your husband! If you are with me, I will stay with you every day and accompany you for the whole life…”
“Gu Luan, the man I love is Yi Yunrui! Even If I stay with you, I don’t love you. I will never love you all my life!”
Hearing her words, Gu Luan darkens his face, “What is good about Yi Yunrui? Why is he worthy of your love? It is because of marrying to him that you suffer so much! Don’t you understand? Why do you still stick to him?”
“It is not true. I am very happy with Rui. Gu Luan, you misunderstand. Rui loves me very much. He really loves me very much…”
“That is enough!” Gu Luan shouts loudly, “Xia Ning, don’t mention other men in front of me! Anyway, you are going to become my woman today!”
After finishing his words, Gu Luan lowers his head. He goes directly to kiss Xia Ning on her lips.
Instinctively, Xia Ning turns her face away. Gu Luan fails to kiss her. He gets more furious as if the flame of anger is going to burn him down. He goes to Xia Ning and presses her under his body while his hands tear Xia Ning’s clothes.
No…No!
Xia Ning struggles to protect herself. At the moment, the image of Yi Yunrui’s face pops up in her brain. No. She can’t make Yi Yunrui humiliated!
Even though she is forced, she can’t bring any humiliation to Rui!
Thinking about this, Xia Ning fiercely struggles. She glimpses the glass Gu Luan used before. It is beside the bed.
In an instant, she has a clear idea. She remembers the movements Yi Yunrui taught her before he left. She suddenly lifts her knee and forcefully hits Gu Luan’s crotch with it!
“Ah!” Gu Luan groans. He suddenly stops his actions and then bends his body and covers his crotch with his hand.
Xia Ning catches the chance. She suddenly stands up and grabs the glass beside. She knocks it on the table. It bangs and the glass is broken into two parts. Xia Ning tightly holds a piece of the broken glass. The edge looks harmfully sharp. She points it at Gu Luan.
Gu Luan grits his teeth and takes a deep breath, “You can’t go out.”
Xia Ning feels her heart tightened, “Why?”
“The door of this room can only be opened with a code. Without my code, no one can open it.”
Hearing this, Xia Ning feels her heart suddenly sink!
At present, she has the upper hand, but after Gu Luan resumes himself, she will be put at a disadvantage.
Xia Ning looks around. She stares at the window.
“Don’t look at it. That is bulletproof glass, you can’t break it.” Gu Luan gasps, waiting for the pain to go away. He says, “You may put down the glass. Even if you carry the glass, you can’t win. Ning, don’t make unnecessary struggles…”
“Unnecessary struggles?” Xia Ning slightly lifts her lips to make a faint smile, “Weapons are not always used against enemies!”
After saying this, Xia Ning lifts the glass and forcefully sticks it into her hand!
Her hand trembles. Blood flows out at once!
It seems not enough for her. Xia Ning forcefully pulls out the glass and blood sprays out and wets Xia Ning’s face…
“No!” When Xia Ning sticks the glass into her hand, as if it is stuck into his heart, Gu Luan feels so painful that he cries. He forgets the pain in his crotch. He runs to Xia Ning at once.
“Stand there!” Xia Ning shouts. She is pale with pain. But she looks decisive. She says, “If you come over to me, I will kill myself at once!”
After saying that, Xia Ning puts the glass on her neck. The sharp edge cuts into her neck. Blood flows out. The red blood makes a shocking comparison with her white skin!
Surprisingly, Xia Ning resists so fiercely. She even doesn’t care to give up her life. Gu Luan takes a cold breath. He stares blankly at the broken glass on her neck.
A gentle cut will…
Gu Luan closes his eyes. He dares not to imagine the scene. At this moment, he feels that his life is meaningless.
“Open the door!” Xia Ning shouts, “Within ten seconds! Ten, nine, eight…”
If she is raped by Gu Luan, she will feel ashamed to meet Yi Yunrui again. If so, what’s the meaning of life?
“OK. I’ll open the door.” Gu Luan notices the deep grief on Xia Ning’s face. He is clear that she is not threatening him. She will do that!
“Ning, don’t be impulsive. I’ll open the door…” Gu Luan says when he goes to the door to press the code.
When the door is opened, Xia Ning gives a sigh of relief. But she suddenly remembers that Gu Luan lives in a high-grade villa district. Even if she leaves the house, no one can save her.
Xia Ning feels desperate. She glances at the wound on her hand. The blood doesn’t seem to flow fast enough. The wound doesn’t seem to be serious enough.
Thinking about this, Xia Ning tightens her hand and sticks the glass into her shoulder…
“No!” Gu Luan cries in grief. Immediately, he runs to hold Xia Ning who is going to fall…
The sense of pain spreads over her body. Blood sprays fiercely. In an instant, Xia Ning is gradually losing her consciousness and the strength as well…
She remembers Yi Yunrui’s face, his smiles, and all the happy moments they had together…
She doesn’t want to die. She wants to stay with Yi Yunrui all her life…She is unwilling to leave him. She is unwilling to leave him now…
They haven’t had a baby yet. She knows that he likes kids.
“Director Gu…” Xia Ning grits her teeth and struggles to continue, “Please…please send me to the hospital. Please…send me to the hospital…”
She wants to add some more wounds to herself, which at least may make Gu Luan panic. But now, she doesn’t have any strength at all. Her only hope is that Gu Luan is merciful and sends her to the hospital.
“Director Gu, … send me to the hospital…Please…Please…”
She has used up the last straw of her strength. She sees nothing and in the next second, she falls into the endless darkness…
