Chapter 1049 The Darkness Before Dawn

Cheng Xiaoyu curled herself up in the quilt.

For Shi Chenyuan, that bar was where they first met, and perhaps it was also the place where he fell in love with her at first sight. It was a beautiful place.

But for Cheng Xiaoyu, that is a gray area that she still cannot get out of.

When Cheng Xiaoyu thought about how she was taken to a hotel by a strange man and not only lost her virginity, but was also probably photographed or videotaped, her scalp tightened and she felt extremely regretful.

In the past, she wanted to settle the score with the cowherd, but now, what she fears most is meeting him again.

I also hope that that incident will become a thing of the past and never be mentioned again.

She placed her left hand in front of her eyes and looked at the ring Shi Chenyuan had given her in the moonlight outside the window. She really liked Shi Chenyuan and hoped that he would never know about the stupid thing she had done...

After Shi Chenyuan left the bedroom, he came to the dining room, poured himself half a glass of whiskey, casually picked up two pieces of ice and threw them into the glass, and took a big sip.

The alcohol slid down my throat and my spirit relaxed a little.

He could see that Xiaoyu was very resistant when the bar was mentioned, and her face changed.

She should be very regretful about that incident, perhaps even ashamed.

If I make things clear with Xiaoyu, she might not feel less ashamed just because the person she had a one-night stand with was him. Instead, she might not know how to face him anymore, right?

After all, everyone has a side that they don't want others to see.

She was unforgettable to him that night, but in her own heart, it must have been an extremely shameful night.

Shi Chenyuan smiled bitterly and suddenly felt that he had made things too complicated.

Let the past be the past. Why do you always want to make it clear?

Since we have kept it a secret for so long, let's just continue pretending and pretend that nothing happened.

Anyway, they are probably the only two people who know about this.

The most important thing right now is not to worry about that matter, but how to solve the trouble of my younger brother Rong Ye.

Now, the man surnamed Yu has transferred his anger towards Rong Ye to him and Xiao Yu.

The other party’s request was very clear: if Shi Chenyuan wanted to save Rong Ye, he had to marry Yu Manning.

But that's impossible.

He rubbed his brows tiredly, hoping there would be a way to have the best of both worlds.

…

Canglan Garden.

Su Jiuyao lit some calming aromatherapy and just fell asleep.

But maybe because she was too tired, she slept very uneasily.

She dreamed of Gu Hanye. In the dream, he didn't speak, but just smiled at her. Su Jiuyao called out his name, but he didn't respond, and just kept smiling...

I woke up suddenly in a cold sweat.

There were no scary scenes in the dream, but it made all the pores on Su Jiuyao's body stand up.

When her grandmother passed away, she also dreamed that her grandmother was smiling at her without saying a word.

The more Su Jiuyao thought about it, the more anxious she became. Maybe she was too tired, which led to mental exhaustion, or maybe it was really some kind of intuition. No matter what, she had to make sure of Gu Hanye's current safety.

She picked up her cell phone from the bedside and checked the time. It was three in the morning, so Gu Hanye's flight should have landed.

There were no messages from him on the phone.

Could it be...that there was a plane crash?

Su Jiuyao quickly checked the flight Gu Hanye was on and found that it had landed safely.

I breathed a sigh of relief, at least there was no plane crash.

It was already very late, but Gu Hanye must have just got off the plane and might not have slept yet.

Su Jiuyao called him, but the phone rang and then hung up automatically, and no one answered.

Five minutes later, Su Jiuyao called again, but still no one answered.

She sat up, walked barefoot to the window, and looked out into the darkness.

These two hours before dawn are the darkest period of the day.

The whole city was quiet and Su Jiuyao was feeling extremely depressed.

She felt like she was going crazy, she had to do something.
