Chapter 14: Cold-blooded and Ruthless

The butler had served Gong Ye for many years, and upon hearing this, he immediately understood what Gong Ye meant.

He immediately ordered his bodyguards to flatten the only intact sofa, then led his men out, dragging Gu Xingxian, who was covered in blood, along with them.

Gu Shanshan took a step to go out, but before Gong Ye could stop her, the door was closed from the outside by the butler.

Before leaving, the housekeeper gave Gu Shanshan a encouraging look.

Gu Shanshan was even more confused.

In a short while, only Gong Ye and Gu Shanshan remained in the room that had been smashed and ransacked.

Gong Ye had endured for too long and had long since lost his patience.

Ignoring Gu Shanshan's bewildered expression, he grabbed her arm and pulled her onto the sofa.

His tall body leaned down and pressed down on her.

Looking at the man pressing down on her, Gu Shanshan opened her mouth as if to say something.

"Gong Ye, please don't..."

Before he could finish speaking, Gong Ye kissed him, sealing his mouth shut so he couldn't utter another word.

In order to ensure that she could get into Gong Ye's bed, Gu Xingxian used a very heavy dose.

Gong Ye had been patient for too long, and now that he was facing Gu Shanshan, he had no reason left.

The butler ordered the bodyguards to stand at a distance and put on earplugs himself.

Gong Ye was so possessive that he wouldn't allow Gu Shanshan's cries to be heard by others.

......

At the hospital.

Since being beaten by Gong Ye that night, Gong Ziyu has been staying in the hospital and has not left.

The butler strictly followed Gong Ye's orders, having Gong Ziyu physically castrated while undergoing emergency surgery.

Several days had passed between Gong Ziyu's recovery from the operating table and when she regained consciousness.

Enraged, she immediately called the doctor over to question him and lashed out at him.

But nobody paid him any attention.

Because Gong Ziyu offended Gong Ye, and after becoming a cripple and losing his ability to carry on the family line, he was directly abandoned by the Gong family.

He has now become a discarded pawn, and not a single member of the Gong family has come to visit him in the hospital.

Even his biological parents never came.

Gong Ziyu was unwilling to give up, so he sat on the bed and made a phone call back. As soon as he opened his mouth to call out "Dad", he heard his father's harsh and angry voice on the other end.

They cursed him, asking why he didn't just die instead of offending Gong Ye.

They also called him a spineless piece of trash, telling him to die out there sooner rather than later, so he wouldn't go back and implicate them, and that Gong Ye would also hold a grudge against him.

Gong Ziyu hung up the phone in a daze, her eyes lifeless.

To put it bluntly, he's now like those eunuchs in the palace in ancient times.

From now on, he can no longer touch anyone.

"Damn Gu Shanshan!"

Gong Ziyu smashed her phone in anger, her face contorted in a horrifying way.

The phone was smashed on the ground and immediately shattered into pieces.

Not daring to offend Gong Ye, he blamed all his resentment on Gu Shanshan.

He believed that all his misfortunes were due to Gu Shanshan.

Gong Ziyu's eyes flashed with anger as he fiercely shouted, "One day, I'll kill you!"

Gu Shanshan knew none of this.

At this moment, he was enduring Gong Ye's terrifying plunder.

He would wake up and then faint again, countless times, until he finally lost consciousness completely.

......

the next day.

When Gu Shanshan opened her eyes, she found herself in a completely unfamiliar place.

What meets the eye is a blinding expanse of pure white.

This is a hospital room.

The ward was quiet; there was no one else there except him.

He was lying in the hospital bed with an IV drip in his arm.

I opened my mouth and found my voice was terribly hoarse.

Even now, Gu Shanshan still feels a lingering fear when she thinks about it.

"vomit......"

A stomach acid refluxed, and Gu Shanshan sat up slightly, leaned over the edge of the bed, and vomited into the trash can.

It took me quite a while to gradually calm down after vomiting for a while.

Gu Shanshan frowned deeply, her gaze sweeping across the room's furnishings, but she couldn't find a trace of water.

He moved his body, struggling to get out of bed to open the door and call the nurse to bring him some water.

"hiss......"

Gu Shanshan gasped, frowning as she stared at the pristine white ceiling above her.

Crack...

Just as he was pondering how to get up, the sound of a door opening rang out.

Gu Shanshan turned her head and saw Gong Ye standing in the doorway, holding a glass of water in his hand.

The two looked into each other's eyes and remained silent for a moment.

Gu Shanshan didn't know what to say, and Gong Ye was naturally taciturn and as cold as ice.

It's impossible for him to coax Gu Shanshan.

The silence created an unprecedentedly awkward atmosphere between the two, even though they had been intimate not long ago.

But when the two of them actually sat down to talk, they really didn't know what to say.

Gu Shanshan thought about what happened last night, feeling both fear and resentment towards Gong Ye.

Gong Ye had no idea what Gu Shanshan was thinking.

He walked steadily to Gu Shanshan's side and handed her the water glass he was holding.

He coldly uttered a single word.

"drink."

His tone was as cold and hard as ever.

Gu Shanshan swallowed, her throat so dry it felt like it was on fire, and took the water.

When taking the water cup, she didn't dare touch Gong Ye's fingers even once.

Gong Ye saw Gu Shanshan's timid eyes and her attitude of avoiding him like the plague.

I felt a sudden displeasure.

He frowned and asked in a cold voice, "Why are you so afraid of me?"

"cough......"

Gu Shanshan, who was drinking water, was startled by Gong Ye's cold voice, choked on the water, and coughed.

After coughing for a while, she glanced at Gong Ye with a fearful look in her eyes.

He shook his head in denial, saying, "I didn't."

"No? Heh..."

Gong Ye's cold gaze fell on Gu Shanshan, and his voice became even colder.

"Gu Shanshan, I'm not blind. Can't you see? How could I not see?"

Since Gong Ye had already said that, Gu Shanshan, whose lie had been exposed, pursed her lips and had nothing to say.

So I simply shut up.

Anyway, given Gong Ye's cold attitude, whatever I say will be wrong.

It's better to remain silent.

Holding a half-empty water glass, he leaned against the headboard, head down, saying nothing.

Gong Ye, however, thought that Gu Shanshan was giving him the cold shoulder, and his expression became even more gloomy and unpleasant.

"Hmph, ungrateful wretch!"

After coldly uttering those words, Gong Ye turned and left, slamming the door of the ward loudly.

After Gong Ye left, Gu Shanshan breathed a sigh of relief.

After finishing the water in the cup, he lay on the hospital bed with his eyes half-closed to rest.

He was pondering what exactly happened between Gu Xingxian and Gong Ye last night that led to such an ugly situation.

......

In the afternoon, Gu Shanshan was extremely hungry, but no one came to bring her any food.

Left with no other choice, he clutched his rumbling stomach and endured the pain and spasms as he got out of bed.

He limped out of bed, opened the door to the ward, and asked a patient passing by in the corridor where the cafeteria was.

After thanking them, I went to the elevator in my hospital gown and pressed the button to go downstairs.

After waiting for about ten seconds, the elevator doors slowly opened in front of me.

Gu Shanshan looked up, and after seeing who was in the elevator, her eyes widened in horror...
