In a twist of fate, Qiao Yanrou found herself transported into a post-apocalyptic novel, assuming the role of a beautiful but powerless villainess.
Initially unaware of her fictional reality,...
Chapter 69
A girl in work clothes ran out to open the door for her and guided her upstairs.
Qiao Yanrou originally wanted to give the flowers directly to the servant, but when she heard the girl in front of her pointing upstairs, she hesitated whether to go upstairs.
The servant, perhaps sensing her hesitation, said something reassuring: "Mr. Gao is not a bad man. I'll take you upstairs."
Qiao Yanrou nodded slightly and followed the servant onto the terrace.
She stopped at the door leading to the terrace with a bouquet of flowers in her arms, and the servant pointed to the girl in the middle who was surrounded by everyone.
"The flowers are for the girl in the middle wearing a black dress."
Qiao Yanrou nodded and thanked the servant. The servant, mindful of her uneasiness, added a reassuring reassurance, "I'll be waiting for you here."
Qiao Yanrou was very grateful for the girl's warm gesture and was attentive to her emotions.
"Thank you." She thanked the girl again with great gratitude.
The servant stood at the door of the terrace and watched her walk over. She didn't understand why Mr. Gao didn't let the people in the villa give the flowers to Miss Wu, but insisted that the people from the florist deliver them to Miss Wu personally. It was not until she saw Qiao Yanrou standing at the door of the villa holding the flowers that she knew why.
Mr. Gao fell in love with the owner of the flower shop, but the owner was really beautiful, like a fairy who had descended to earth, and she was pretty in every way.
The large terrace is decorated with a sense of atmosphere, and everyone is in high spirits, especially under the warm sunshine.
Somewhere on the terrace, a sunny and handsome man sat in an inconspicuous position, drinking alone.
Gao Junlou couldn't understand why he was so obsessed with one woman. Was she really that unforgettable? After all these years, he still couldn't forget that woman.
"Brother Yu, let me introduce you to a beautiful woman who has been secretly in love with you for a long time." Gao Junlou wanted to make Xue Yu forget the woman hidden deep in his heart, and often looked for opportunities to match him with other women.
He waved in a certain direction of the crowd, indicating that the girl could come over.
Xue Yu was in no mood and drank a sip of wine. It was really uncomfortable to have his body and mind taken away by a woman. He gave her his first kiss, first time, and first love, but she ran away and he hasn't found her until now.
He often secretly cursed Qiao Yanrou for being a bad person who stole his heart and was irresponsible to him! He felt very wronged to be abandoned by her like this.
The girl Gao Junlou introduced to him was sweet-looking and had been secretly in love with Xue Yu for a long time.
"Brother." The girl called him in a sweet voice.
Xue Yu didn't even bother to pay attention, his eyes looking into the distance: "Don't bother me."
Seeing that the girl was about to cry because of his scolding, Gao Junlou quickly tried to smooth things over: "Brother, give her a chance, and give yourself a chance too."
Xue Yu was very indifferent: "No need." He was happy to only think about the woman who abandoned him. There must be a reason why she left, otherwise how could she be willing to leave him when he was so handsome and had strong skills in that area.
So... he guessed that Qiao Yanrou must have her own difficulties. It was possible that Fu Chuqing had kidnapped her, or that she was threatened by someone, which made Qiao Yanrou leave him cruelly.
When she left him, Qiao Yanrou felt uncomfortable, and he knew all of this.
Xue Yu's inner drama and self-strategy have gone crazy to the bone, and he loves her to the point of being almost crazy.
Gao Junlou sighed helplessly and could only shake his head gently at the girl next to him who was about to cry. The girl couldn't accept it and ran downstairs crying.
This made Gao Junlou feel uncomfortable. What was going on?
Just after he finished sighing, he saw a back that made his heart beat faster. Gao Junlou excitedly tidied up his clothes. Still feeling uneasy, he quickly walked into the bathroom on the terrace and looked at the mirror carefully. Seeing his handsome appearance in the mirror, Gao Junlou went to find her with confidence.
At this time, Qiao Yanrou walked into the crowd with flowers in her arms and gave the flowers to the girl who was surrounded in the middle.
Wu Yanjuan was amazed by the woman who suddenly appeared next to her, and subconsciously took the bouquet of flowers she handed over.
Qiao Yanrou smiled gently: "A gentleman asked me to give this bouquet of flowers to you."
Wu Yanjuan and the other girls next to her were almost lost in her smile. She was stunned for a few seconds before she recovered and asked, "Who is it?"
"Mr. Gao."
Several girls sitting around her started to make noises, "I told you Lao Gao likes you."
"They sent you flowers? Brother Gao is still a bit romantic and knows how to woo girls."
Wu Yanjuan got goosebumps from their teasing. Gao Junlou definitely didn't give her this bouquet of flowers because he liked her.
"Stop it, Gao Junlou gave me flowers to celebrate my birthday today, not to pursue me." It was too scary.
After all, he was a childhood friend, and Wu Yanjuan was shocked when she heard him pursuing her.
Qiao Yanrou smiled as she watched them still making noises. After the flowers were delivered, she turned around and left the terrace.
A figure came up to her with a slightly stiff look. Gao Junlou took a deep breath and gave her a handsome and charming smile: "Thank you for your hard work. Would you like a drink?"
His sudden appearance surprised Qiao Yanrou: "No need, Mr. Gao."
Gao Junlou didn't expect that she would refuse. The man who was usually very confident was now so nervous that he stood in front of her with a stiff manner, even sweating on his forehead and nose. He didn't know how to ask her to sit down and chat.
A male psychic standing next to Xue Yu was watching the show with great interest. It was rare for him to see Gao Junlou in this state, so he came up to Xue Yu with a gloating look and signaled him to hurry up and watch the show.
"Hahaha...Brother Yu, look at Gao Junlou, haha...look, he got humiliated." He almost choked with laughter after being rejected by a beautiful woman.
Hearing this, Xue Yu was a little surprised. Given Gao Junlou's conditions, not many people would refuse him, right? He glanced lazily in Gao Junlou's direction.
Gao Junlou stood in front of the woman, he was so nervous that he looked visibly awkward. Xue Yu glanced at the woman opposite Gao Junlou. The woman was leaning sideways, her profile was picturesque, and her long black hair that reached her waist was a little messy because of the wind. From his angle, he could only see that she was wearing a long coat and mid-length boots, but not her face.
Just one glance made Xue Yu's pupils shrink slightly. He seemed unable to believe what he saw and stared at Qiao Yanrou intently.
He stood up slowly, afraid that the woman in front of him would suddenly disappear.
The psychic who was laughing so hard just now saw Xue Yu stand up and walk towards Gao Junlou and the beautiful woman. He chased after him in surprise and asked.
"Hahaha, I laughed so hard that tears came out of my eyes...Brother Yu, Brother Yu, what are you doing there?"
At this moment, Xue Yu only had Qiao Yanrou in his eyes and heart. He ignored the psychic who caught up with him to ask questions and strode towards her.
Qiao Yanrou was not paying attention to the situation around her and was blocked by Mr. Gao. She looked up in confusion and saw his expression as if he wanted to say something but stopped.
She asked, "Is there anything else?"
Gao Junlou was just mustering up the courage to invite her to stay, and just as he was about to say it, a tall figure walked over from the side.
Xue Yu reached out and grabbed Qiao Yanrou's wrist. The latter was startled and looked at him carefully, and she was even more shocked.
Qiao Yanrou: Xue... Xue Yu!!?
He bit the back of his teeth, and his eyes were stained red.
"Qiao Yanrou!"
Qiao Yanrou was so scared that she tried to break free from the shackles in his hands, but it was no use. His palms were so tight that they seemed welded to her wrists, hot and tight.
"You...how come you are here?" Such a coincidence really happened in the world, and she happened to encounter it.
Qiao Yanrou was in tears. She didn't expect that sending flowers would cause trouble. It was not easy to get rid of Xue Yu. The love of Ji Yuanchen and Fu Chuqing for her was irrational most of the time, but if she was really angry, they would choose to respect her wishes.
Xue Yu is a completely irrational person. If he attacks her again, she will definitely not be able to escape from his control.
"It's God's will." The suppressed madness in Xue Yu's eyes was sweeping away his rationality. He had been looking for her for so long that he wanted to hold her in his arms so that she would never be able to escape from his control for the rest of her life.
"You...let me go." Qiao Yanrou was so anxious that her snow-white skin turned a thin layer of red, for fear of being imprisoned by him.
How could Xue Yu let her go? He suppressed his surging madness, grabbed her wrist and walked downstairs.
Gao Junlou, who was standing by, was already stunned. Not only him, but everyone on the terrace also had a stunned expression.
So... the woman in front of me is the one that Brother Yu has been looking for?!
Gao Junlou realized that Qiao Yanrou was the woman Xue Yu was looking for. Without time to sigh, he immediately stepped forward to stop Xue Yu from hiding Qiao Yanrou. He knew too well how sick Xue Yu had been in recent years. No matter where he moved, he would first arrange a spacious, luxurious house that would make people unable to escape.
Gao Junlou knew that this was the woman Xue Yu was looking for. If Qiao Yanrou was trapped in the villa carefully designed by Xue Yu because of him, he would never be able to rest in peace for the rest of his life.
He used his special powers to close the door of the terrace, and the servant standing at the door of the terrace moved away in time. The servant looked at Qiao Yanrou's beautiful but frightened face with concern.
"Brother, calm down. You'll scare her."
Xue Yu looked at him with extremely cold eyes: "Open the door." If anyone dared to covet his woman, he would come to settle the score with him when he had the chance.
Gao Junlou shook his head anxiously and tried his best to persuade him: "We finally found the person, there's no need to rush back."
Wu Yanjuan noticed something was wrong and ran over to persuade him, "Yeah, sit down and have a cup of coffee and chat."
The others present didn't dare to say a word and held their breath, wary of Xue Yu getting angry and attacking.
Xue Yu's face was gloomy, and powerful supernatural powers burst out from his body. At the critical moment, Qiao Yanrou behind him reached out and grasped his wrist, her palm soft against his skin.
She shook her head gently at Xue Yu: "Don't get angry at innocent people." What's more, today is Miss Wu's birthday.
Hearing her gentle voice, Xue Yu's anger instantly subsided. His expression became much softer when facing her, and he held her fingers tightly.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Xue Yu used his supernatural powers to open the door to the terrace and took Qiao Yanrou downstairs.
Gao Junlou and the others could only worry, because Xue Yu was too strong, and they couldn't beat him even if they combined their strength.
Qiao Yanrou was also thinking about how to escape from his clutches. If she was locked up by him, she would lose the freedom she wanted.
"Xue Yu, can we talk?" She tried to communicate with him.
How could Xue Yu, who had only been thinking about her for several years, listen to her?
"Okay, we'll have a deep discussion later." Xue Yu emphasized the words, wishing he could lock her in the room, press her under him, and kiss her madly.
Qiao Yanrou didn't understand the deeper meaning of his words, she only knew that it would be too late later.
At this time, Xue Yu had already taken her out of the gate of Gao Junlou's villa. She wanted to try other methods, but she didn't have time to speak.
A purple-black lightning struck Xue Yu directly. Xue Yu reacted extremely quickly and held her in his arms to avoid the purple-black lightning that was hitting him.
Xue Yu looked carefully and saw that the person who attacked him was Ji Yuanchen.
He asked, "Why did Mr. Ji attack me?"
When Ji Yuanchen saw him holding Qiao Yanrou, the purple-black lightning emanating from his body became even darker. If he hadn't been afraid of hurting Qiao Yanrou, he would have already fought fiercely with Xue Yu.
"Let her go."
The moment Qiao Yanrou saw Ji Yuanchen, her eyes lit up. How did he know she was here?
Xue Yu caught a glimpse of Qiao Yanrou in his arms looking at Ji Yuanchen with joy. He felt jealous and angry, but was afraid of scaring her, so he lowered his voice and said sourly, "Don't look at other men like that!"
Qiao Yanrou immediately covered her face with her hands: "Don't look, don't look."
Ji Yuanchen was too lazy to talk nonsense with him. Purple and black lightning had already covered half the sky and could strike Xue Yu at any time.
Except for the lack of mental power, Xue Yu's supernatural power is similar to his.
In a short while, half of the sky was covered with purple-black lightning, and then it turned into fiery red flames, which was shocking.
