Chapter 10 He Won't Let Me Go

The next day, I woke up to the sound of running water in the bathroom.

The cell phone on the bedside table suddenly rang, and I picked up the phone and answered it.

The next second, a familiar female voice came from the phone.

"Momo! I'm back!"

The person on the phone was my best friend Chen Yan, who did not sever our relationship even after my family went bankrupt, but instead helped me in every way.

Chen Yan kept shouting, "I saw Song Le as soon as I got off the plane. I think he is still waiting for you. Why don't you consider him?"

Song Le?

I was stunned for a moment, but finally refused. I was the one who abandoned him back then, how could I have the nerve to look for him again?

Just when he was about to explain, the bathroom door was opened and this time Jiang Yichen came out fully dressed.

"Pimping my bed?"

As soon as the man's voice came out, Chen Yan instantly turned into a lifeless quail, not daring to say a word.

"I didn't mean that. Yanyan was just saying it casually."

I hung up the phone, thinking that I had to take care of my best friend myself, so I resolutely took the blame for her and prepared to accept Jiang Yichen's anger.

However, he didn't say anything, just told me that the doctor would come over later to change my medicine.

In the evening, Jiang Yichen called and said he would not be back. When I was about to go to bed, I received a call from Chen Yan. She asked me to go to the bar to relax with her.

Logically speaking, I should ask Jiang Yichen if he agrees first.

But thinking that he wouldn't come back, he wouldn't find out even if I secretly went out to play for a night.

I have always done a good job of acting first and reporting later.

When I showed up at the bar, I stood at the door for a long time.

Before the incident at the Gu family, I also liked to go to the bar. Every night, no matter how late I fooled around, Jiang Yichen would be waiting for me outside.

Now I guess he doesn't care at all.

When I found Chen Yan, she was passionately kissing a male model who was 188cm tall. It took me a lot of effort to pull her down.

"You asked me to come here just to show me these?"

I looked at Chen Yan, as if I was going to throw her out of here if she said yes.

Chen Yan shook her head, took out her phone mysteriously and asked me to look at it, "Is this your husband? He was with other women before the divorce, this is cheating! You still want money after taking it!"

"But why are you together this morning?"

I subconsciously wanted to cover my chest tightly, as there was evidence of Jiang Yichen's beastly behavior last night on it.

Chen Yan is worthy of being my good friend for many years. As soon as he saw me like this, he knew something was fishy and pounced on me and tried to tear off my clothes.

At the critical moment, someone behind him spoke up to stop him.

"Gu Mo? Chen Yan? What are you doing?"

It’s Song Le!

My body stiffened for a moment, and when I came to my senses, he was already standing in front of Shen Yan and me.

When he looked at me, there was deep worry in his brows.

"How are you?"

I nodded.

How could it be considered bad? Jiang Yichen sent someone to take me to and from school every day. Although it was a bit aggrieved, my life was still the same as before I went bankrupt.

I just have a few more worries.

Chen Yan narrowed her eyes at me and slapped me on the shoulder: "What are you pretending to be here? Can I laugh at you if you say something bad?"

Good, she doesn't believe it.

"Gu Mo, I can help you." Song Le's voice came to my ears.

I turned to look at him, his dark eyes held an indescribable meaning.

"No, I can do it. Thank you for helping me out at the KTV last time."

He was right. With the strength of the Song family, they could indeed help the Gu family overcome difficulties. But now the situation in Tongcheng has changed, and Jiang Yichen is the biggest master.

If he knew that Song Le helped me, I'm afraid the Song family would be disgraced.

"Gu Mo, if you want, we can..."

I knew what Song Le wanted to say, so I quickly stopped him and said, "Jiang Yichen is very nice to me."

I escaped from the marriage on my own, and now I can only accept all the consequences.

I saw Song Le's eyes dim for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

He seemed very busy and went to the side to answer the phone before he even sat down.

As soon as he left, Chen Yan suddenly took out a check.

"Three million?" I looked at her in confusion.

Chen Yan stared at me, putting away his usual cynical attitude.

"You can use the money first. If there is anything else I can help you with, please let me know."

She is still as considerate to me as always.

I looked at the check in her hand and felt a little bitter.

She has helped me enough after the bankruptcy, and I can't take her money anymore.

I pushed the check back and said, "If I really need you, I'll definitely call."

Chen Yan wanted to speak more, but I quickly stopped her and told her to enjoy her happy time.

Just then, there was a sudden vibration in my pocket.

My heart suddenly skipped a beat for no apparent reason, and a bad premonition came over me.

I quickly took out my phone, glanced at the screen, and froze.

Jiang Yichen?

Why is he calling at this hour? Could it be that he has gone back?

Whenever I think of that cold face, I feel a little guilty.

The phone was still vibrating wildly in my hand. I came to my senses and quickly pressed the answer button: "What's going on?"

The man's hoarse and low voice slowly sounded: "What are you doing?"

My nerves tensed unconsciously.

I used to be free and casual, doing whatever I wanted.

Even if he was drunk, Jiang Yichen would not say a word and would go along with my temper and take care of me.

Unlike now, I have to look at his face in everything.

I subconsciously lied to him: "I'm reading at home."

He seemed a little unconvinced and laughed faintly: "You? Reading a book?"

This laughter was so creepy that I suddenly felt a chill down my spine.

Is he here too?

I held my breath and looked around but didn't see any trace of Jiang Yichen, so I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Isn't it normal for me to go to school now and read books and finish my homework?"

"Really? I'm going home to get something. I'll be home in half an hour."

As soon as he finished speaking, I felt a chill down my spine.

If I can't get back within half an hour, I'm afraid I'll have to face his storm!

After hanging up the phone, I immediately said goodbye to Chen Yan and ran out. The only thing in my mind was that I had to get home as quickly as possible.

After passing the traffic light at the corner, I immediately ran to the sidewalk on the side.

However, a horn suddenly sounded, and when I turned around, the glaring light made it impossible for me to open my eyes.

I subconsciously wanted to escape, but my whole body felt like it was filled with lead water and I couldn't move at all!

When it was only three meters away from me, the wheels made a noisy noise, my whole body went limp, and I fell to the ground.

When I opened my eyes, I was already in the hospital.

Jiang Yichen looked at me deeply, and a chill appeared on his originally calm face.

"Are you awake?"

His voice sounded neither sad nor happy, making it hard to understand.

I subconsciously clenched the corner of my clothes, feeling a little nervous. I wondered how he was going to punish me this time.
