Chapter 15

Lu Shijie’s expression turned sinister. He had been careless in being outsmarted by Gu Chuyun. He had always seen Gu Chuyun as a naive beauty, never expecting her to be a deceitful person.

“If you don’t want to marry me, who do you want to marry? Lu Zhiyuan?” Lu Shijie sneered at her. “Did you know that Lu Zhiyuan once had a cat?”

Gu Ci naturally knew. It was a cat that Lin Zhi had given to Lu Zhiyuan. Lu Zhiyuan was particularly fond of that cat, but the cat, in turn, preferred Lu Shijie because he bought it many cans of food and kept peppermint plants in his room. Pets and people’s emotions and preferences didn’t always align. Over time, the cat became attached to Lu Shijie.

But one day, when Lu Zhiyuan came home from school, he watched helplessly as Lu Shijie killed his cat. Lu Zhiyuan and Lu Shijie got into a fight, and Lu Zhiyuan even knocked out one of Lu Shijie’s front teeth.

“It turns out, he pretended to dislike you on purpose, just because he was afraid that the woman he was interested in would be coveted by me. He has been pretending for so many years, and I almost fell for it.” Lu Shijie’s blood was boiling as he licked his lips in a sinister manner. “If Lu Zhiyuan knew that the woman he liked was taken by me, married to me, I wonder what expression he would have?”

Lu Shijie laughed excitedly. “It must be a heart-wrenching pain. I’m really looking forward to it.”

“You’re truly disgusting!” Gu Ci looked at him coldly. She was well aware that Lu Shijie enjoyed taking things away from Lu Zhiyuan. She had heard about it before. “You and Gu Chuyun are truly made for each other.”

“Gu Ci, you have no choice.” Lu Shijie flicked his cigar and smirked. “The person I set my eyes on, no one can escape from the palm of my hand.”

He dropped a pill into the wine bottle, giving it a gentle shake, and poured a glass of wine, staring at Gu Ci with an evil gaze.

Gu Ci laughed coldly. Those girls who had been hurt by him were also victims of his manipulations.

Lu Shijie was displeased with the disdainful look in Gu Ci’s eyes.

“What are you laughing at?” he asked.

Gu Ci replied, “Lu Shijie, if you can’t perform without drugging yourself, then you’re just impotent.”

Her words were extremely humiliating and insulting. Lu Shijie’s face instantly darkened, and he angrily stood up, lifting the glass of wine. “I was being nice. Since you don’t appreciate it, then don’t blame me!”

As Lu Shijie approached with the wine in hand, Gu Ci swiftly moved forward, snatched the glass from him, and delivered a punch to his eye. Lu Shijie was knocked back onto the sofa, and before he could get up, Gu Ci kicked him in the chest, almost stepping on his torso as she forced the wine down his throat.

“You… Help!” Lu Shijie’s face turned pale with shock. He shouted for his bodyguards, and two guards who were standing by the door entered. Gu Ci quickly stepped back.

The wine was originally prepared for Gu Ci, but he didn’t expect that it would have the same effect on him. With a cold smile, he said, “Gu Ci, if you drank this wine, it would be considered a sensual experience. But if I drink it, are you sure… you’ll be able to get out of bed?”

Gu Ci sneered and poured another glass of wine, all while under the arrogant and malicious gaze of Lu Shijie. She swiftly kicked down his bodyguard and forcefully poured the glass of wine into his mouth.

Lu Shijie widened his eyes, “What are you trying to do, Gu Ci?”

The other burly bodyguard happened to be her enemy from a past life. Gu Ci drew out a small knife and aimed it towards his eyes. However, he was equally tough and managed to evade the attack, delivering a powerful kick to Gu Ci’s abdomen instead. Enduring the pain, Gu Ci swung the wine bottle towards his head, causing the liquid to splash into his eyes. Simultaneously, her knife found its mark in his waist, and she forcefully poured the remaining wine down his throat!

The drug’s effect began to take hold within Lu Shijie’s body, igniting a burning desire that made his eyes turn bloodshot. Gu Ci calmly retrieved the knife, saying, “Lu Shijie, since you enjoy forcing women, you should also taste the feeling of being forced.”

Lu Shijie realized what she was about to do, his face turned pale, and he frantically ran towards the door. Just as he pulled it open, Gu Ci kicked him forcefully, with brutality and malice. The drug’s effect had taken hold within their bodies.

“Gu Ci, I’ll kill you!” Lu Shijie roared in anger, but he was restrained by two strong bodyguards who dragged him back onto the sofa in the private room. They struggled with each other like wild beasts. Gu Ci sneered, turned around, and walked away, locking the door behind her.

The bar belonged to Lu Shijie, and during the daytime, it was deserted without a soul in sight. Gu Ci encountered no obstacles as she made her way out of the door.

Just as Gu Ci stepped out of the bar, two cars rushed towards her, seemingly about to collide, but they spun around in front of her, executing a thrilling drift, and stopped beside her.

Lu Zhiyuan swiftly stepped out of the car and approached Gu Ci like a gust of wind. Gu Ci had red marks on her fair and tender arms from the fight. Lu Zhiyuan exuded a fierce aura as he said, “Where is Lu Shijie?”

As soon as the words left his mouth, he started walking towards the bar. Startled, Gu Ci hurriedly embraced him from behind and said, “Don’t go!”

The scene above couldn’t tarnish Lu Zhiyuan’s eyes, and more importantly… she hoped that in Lu Zhiyuan’s heart, she would always be the purest, the cleanest girl.

Her soft body pressed against him, and all of Lu Zhiyuan’s anger dissipated in an instant. When he lowered his head, he could see her hand on his waist.

She wrapped her arms around his waist, her fingers slender and glistening. A warm fragrance wafted through the evening breeze.

Lu Zhiyuan’s ears burned, his body stiffened, and his face turned red from the heat.

This scene was as beautiful as a painting in the sunset. On the other car, Li Jiang remained motionless, refusing to get out. With his phone’s location matching up with his, Gu Ziyu turned off the screen.

Gu Ci gently shook her head. “You’re a world champion, and your hand is more precious than his life. He doesn’t deserve it.”

He doesn’t even deserve to be hit by you!

Lu Zhiyuan’s lips curved upwards. Gu Ci’s words were like a warm breeze that blew through his heart, dissipating all his anger. He uncomfortably clenched his fist. “You… let go of me first!”

Gu Ci obediently released him, feeling a bit regretful. The young Lu Zhiyuan was slimmer than he would be five years later, and it felt nice to hold him like that. In the previous life, she also enjoyed embracing him from behind.

That way, he couldn’t see her ugly face.

“The next time you see him, immediately call the police. No! Call me, I’m more effective than the police!” Lu Zhiyuan’s anger simmered. “Lu Sejie’s audacity is growing. He dared to kidnap you even in broad daylight. Why is he so obsessed with you?”

“Maybe… he has a twisted mind!” Gu Ci thought to herself. Lu Shijie wanted to defile her, covet her, and it was also a way for him to seek revenge against Lu Zhiyuan. He was willing to do anything that would make Lu Zhiyuan lose control.

She couldn’t help but recall Lu Shijie’s words. Did Lu Zhiyuan deliberately act like he disliked her in order to protect her?

The thought of his thought process made Gu Ci chuckle. It was so silly, yet so endearing. Lu Zhiyuan tilted her chin, looking down at her from a higher position. “What are you laughing at?”

His exquisite face was immersed in the warm glow, reflected in her eyes. Gu Ci’s heart softened, and she couldn’t help but smile. Lu Zhiyuan was captivated by the girl’s smile, finding it incredibly stunning.

In his memory, Gu Ci rarely smiled. She was willful, proud, and lacked a sense of security. It was more difficult to make her smile than reaching the heavens.
