Chapter 285: Being Cheated Is No Big Deal

Gu Zhaoye still looked nonchalant, staring at her with burning eyes.

He held out his hand.

Jiang Zhiyue was silent, took two steps forward, and the boy's big hand finally touched her face. It was as smooth and delicate as she had imagined, and a little hot.

Her face turned red, whether it was because she was nervous or worried that someone would see her.

Gu Zhaoye's fingers stopped at the girl's neck. Under her turtleneck sweater, there were large blue marks.

There was a hint of helplessness in his voice. "You didn't want to tell me that I was always a step late. Until I saw that photo, I almost lost you forever."

Jiang Zhiyue opened her mouth and wanted to say something.

Gu Zhaoye laughed again: "I know this is impulsive, but... will this make you feel better? Even a little bit."

How can it not be enjoyable?

Although a series of tortuous means can allow one to retaliate against the enemy and escape unscathed without leaving any future troubles, this kind of sophisticated calculation requires connecting too many links, and no single link can go wrong.

Jiang Zhiyue wasn't sure if she would be as lucky the next time she was attacked.

She asked Gu Zhaoye how he would deal with it afterwards. Gu Zhaoye breathed a sigh of relief, his expression slightly relieved, and suddenly pinched her face hard, "You are worried about me."

Jiang Zhiyue nodded. Mrs. Gu’s actions explained everything. How could she not know who Gu Zhaoye was doing this for?

Mrs. Gu can endure it because she is still useful and things have not yet reached a desperate situation. Once there is no room for maneuver, the fire will burn her.

Jiang Zhiyue knew that Gu Zhaoye was impulsive, but she didn't expect him to draw his gun.

Using a bully to fight a bully is a tried and tested method. The first time Gu Zhaoye taught Lin Jun a lesson, she thought it was out of his possessiveness. Gu Zhaoye has been domineering since he was a child, and he would never allow others to touch anything that belongs to him.

They grew up together, and in Gu Zhaoye's mind, she was treated as an accessory, so she could use his mentality as a shelter without hesitation.

She didn't take his words to heart. How could a man who had been deeply influenced by class values since childhood and who warned her that he could only be her lover turn against someone of the same class for her? Even to the point of causing a stir in the city?

This step is too dangerous.

He knew very well that Lin Jun had the capital to be arrogant, even though they had disliked each other before. When Gu Zhaoye was drunk, he just cursed at him a few times and that was it.

As Qin Si experienced, at the critical moment of the tunnel collapse, knowing that Lin Jun was plotting against him by threatening the driver to drive away, he still beat him up to vent his anger.

There are some things and some words that have not been made clear and have not been completely torn apart, so you should not act rashly.

This is a truth that every child from a prominent family always keeps in mind.

Openly carrying guns would mean that both sides would become complete enemies, which is not in the interests of the Gu family.

A few days ago, Madam Gu also invited a number of noble ladies from the Qin family, the Lin family and other families to discuss matters concerning the auction.

"Zhiyue." Gu Zhaoye asked in a bad tone, "What are you thinking about?"

Jiang Zhiyue looked at the young man sitting cross-legged through the iron fence.

He pressed his face against the cold railing and used one hand to pinch her face with interest, sometimes with light force and sometimes with heavy force.

Gu Zhaoye looked extremely nonchalant, not worried about his future fate at all.

He asked Jiang Zhiyue if she felt relieved. Jiang Zhiyue nodded slightly. The boy smiled again. His handsome face was a little immature and had a faint blush.

Jiang Zhiyue looked at him. Gu Zhaoye adjusted his hair and looked back at her, asking with concern if her wound still hurt.

Jiang Zhiyue shook her head and remained silent for a long time. She then asked him who posted the photo.

"I don't know. The text message I received was anonymous." Gu Zhaoye replied.

Jiang Zhiyue asked thoughtfully, "Master, aren't you worried that this is a scam?"

Gu Zhaoye didn't take it seriously, "Being cheated is no big deal, as long as you are safe."

Jiang Zhiyue was silent.

Gu Zhaoye styled himself into a cool hairstyle, raised his eyebrows and asked Jiang Zhiyue if he was handsome. Jiang Zhiyue nodded. Gu Zhaoye then reminded her not to do good deeds and blamed her for being disobedient and going to the Mu family to attend the wedding without permission.

Jiang Zhiyue pursed her lips, her beautiful eyes looked at him intently, and said, "Sorry, Master, this is not something I can decide."

Gu Zhaoye cursed a few times, then said sullenly, "These damn bastards, I just asked them to send some cakes from Xipingzhai, and they actually dared to refuse me! I'll teach them a lesson when I get out."

Jiang Zhiyue thought about it and told the boy to stay put and bring him whatever he wanted to eat.

Gu Zhaoye was finally satisfied, and his hands felt itchy again, so he wanted to reach out and touch the girl's cheek.

At this time, the office door opened and Mrs. Gu and the director came out.

The director was talking about something respectfully, and Mrs. Gu looked up and happened to look over here.

Gu Zhaoye just raised his hand, but he quickly withdrew it as if he had been electrocuted.

....

St. Barth's Hospital is the top medical institution in the entire Brandenberg, with a world-class team of experts providing medical services specifically for specific groups of people.

In the VIP ward, the atmosphere was extremely heavy.

The expert team stood by trembling with fear, their faces tense and looking extremely nervous.

At this moment, Lin Jun was lying on the hospital bed. The ward was silent except for the slight hum of medical equipment. All the medical staff concentrated and held their breath, not daring to make a sound, anxiously waiting for a crucial piece of news.

The door of the ward was finally opened, and in came the attending medical team. The old professor who was in the lead had a solemn expression on his face, holding a report in his hand, and announced to the Lin family with regret.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Lin, Mrs. Lin..." The old professor's voice was full of helplessness and apology, "We have tried our best and tried all possible methods. I'm afraid Mr. Lin's physical condition will be difficult to recover to its original state."

When Lin's mother heard this, her face turned pale instantly. She snatched the report, tore it into pieces, and threw it hard in the old professor's face.

The old professor dodged in embarrassment, patted his white coat, and continued, "We will continue to do our best and try every possible way to help Mr. Lin return to normal and try other feasible ways..." to make Lin Jun a normal man.

The old professor didn't dare to guarantee this easily. The team had tried their best in the past few days, but the situation was still not optimistic.

Mother Lin's eyes were full of anger. She couldn't accept this fact and was almost on the verge of collapse. "Quacks, a bunch of quacks!"

Her anger made everyone feel overwhelming pressure.

All the members of the Lin family gathered here. Old Master Lin came out to comfort her and only then did Mother Lin's mood stabilize a little.

"Now that my son has fallen into this state, that kid from the Gu family won't have a good ending either!" she said viciously, the hatred in her eyes almost swallowing everything.

"And that girl!"
