Chapter 123 Is what you said true?

"She's gone."

Gu Miaomiao's voice was cold.

"I should go too."

"This is not the place for me to be."

Jiang Yanbai's heart felt like it was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, causing him so much pain that he could hardly breathe.

He took a step forward, stretched out his long arms, and without any explanation, he held the slender figure tightly in his arms.

He buried his head in her neck and greedily breathed in the cool scent from her body, as if only in this way could he confirm that she really existed.

"Don't go."

His voice was muffled over her shoulder, heavy with nasal intensity.

"This will be your home from now on."

"Our common home."

Home?

Gu Miaomiao let him hold her, but her body was as stiff as a stone.

She was in his arms, speaking slowly, word by word.

"No."

"This has never been my home."

Her voice was not loud, but it was resolute.

"I don't want to be bound by anyone anymore."

"Jiang Yanbai, I am alone and I want freedom."

He held her arms, and in an instant, he tightened them even more, as if he wanted to rub her into his bones and blood.

for a long time.

So long that Gu Miaomiao thought he would get angry again.

He slowly let her go.

Those red eyes were filled with dejection after defeat.

"good."

He spoke, his voice breaking.

"You want freedom, I can give it to you."

He stared at her intently, as if making a painful decision.

"But you, have to stay with me all the time, okay?"

Gu Miao-Miao looked at the pain in his eyes, and the corners of her lips slowly curled up into a very faint, somewhat malicious smile.

"OK."

Her voice was playful.

"Unless you let me go now."

"And, from now on, I am free to go wherever I want."

Jiang Yanbai didn't think.

"Okay, I agree."

His response was faster than she expected.

"Whatever you want to do in the future, it's up to you."

Gu Miaomiao was stunned. She didn't expect him to agree so readily.

She was about to speak.

Jiang Yanbai added, and there was a paranoid light in his deep eyes.

"But you must come back here every night."

The smile on Gu Miaomiao's face froze instantly.

"no."

Her refusal was decisive and clear, leaving no room for maneuver.

"I don't want to stay in the Jiang family anymore."

The air, at this moment, completely froze.

The pain on Jiang Yan's white face faded away little by little.

Instead, there was a frightening, sinister smile.

His eyes turned red in an instant.

He laughed softly, and that laughter seemed particularly creepy in this empty hall.

"I've already begged you so humbly."

His voice returned to that cold, controlling tone.

"You still don't want to stay."

He slowly took a step closer, his tall figure completely covering her.

"It seems..."

His fingertips gently touched her cheek, and the cool touch made her shiver all over.

"I can only trap you by my side again."

"Let you slowly feel my goodness."

"Until you can no longer leave me."

The cold fingertips wandered across Gu Miaomiao's cheeks.

Extremely dangerous.

Gu Miaomiao's body tensed up in an instant, and the fighting instinct was engraved in her bones.

But she didn't have time to resist.

Jiang Yanbai suddenly exerted force on his wrist, and his iron-like fingers gripped her wrist.

An irresistible force came.

He actually dragged her towards the stairs.

The high heels made sharp and piercing protest sounds on the smooth marble floor.

Gu Miaomiao staggered when he pulled her, and her arm felt like it was being torn apart with severe pain.

She was forcibly dragged up to the second floor.

He kicked a door open roughly.

He threw her in without mercy.

Gu Miaomiao bumped into the cold wall and barely managed to steady herself.

She raised her eyes and looked around the room.

The ground was a mess.

Overturned chairs, shredded documents, and smashed antique vases.

Gu Miaomiao's eyes grew colder by the second.

She slowly turned around and looked at the man with unstable breathing at the door, with a hint of icy sneer at the corner of her lips.

"Is this the place you prepared for me to live?"

"Boss Jiang's hospitality is truly unique."

Jiang Yanbai's chest heaved violently, and the scarlet in his eyes had not yet faded.

He didn't answer her, but roared with all his might towards the downstairs.

"Mother Wang!"

The sound echoed in the empty villa.

"Clean up the young lady's room!"

After giving this order, he didn't even wait for Gu Miaomiao to react.

He grabbed her wrist again and dragged her out of the room.

Pulled directly to the next door.

His room.

With a bang.

Gu Miaomiao was pressed against the wall by him, and her back hurt.

The man's body was hot and completely enveloped her with strong aggressiveness.

Warm breath sprinkled on her earlobes.

"Stay with me."

Next second.

He no longer gave her any chance to resist.

The kiss that carried the meaning of punishment came down overwhelmingly.

…

A night of entanglement.

the next day.

Gu Miaomiao woke up in a sore and painful state.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Jiang Yanbai sitting beside the bed.

He was already dressed neatly, in a well-tailored black suit, which made him look even more cool and noble.

It was as if the out-of-control man last night was just a nightmare.

But the memories in every inch of my body were clamoring that it was not a dream.

Thinking about how I have lost even the most basic personal freedom.

Gu Miaomiao didn't want to see him, let alone pay attention to him.

She closed her eyes, turned around, and left him with a cold back.

Jiang Yanbai came over.

He didn't touch her, but whispered in her ear with an almost gentle voice.

"I know you are unhappy with me."

"But I thought about it all night."

"I finally figured something out."

His voice paused, with an unnoticeable tentativeness in it.

"I won't let you stay at home all the time."

"You, come to work with me."

work?

Go to Jiang Group?

Gu Miaomiao's stiff back relaxed a little.

Going to the company is better than being imprisoned in this villa and facing him day and night.

But she didn't agree so quickly.

She still said nothing, using silence to express her resistance.

Seeing this, Jiang Yanbai lowered his bottom line again.

He continued, his voice even containing a hint of compromise.

"As long as you are willing to return to the company and continue to be your secretary." "As for the rest of the conditions, as long as you don't leave, you can ask for anything you want."

Upon hearing this, Gu Miaomiao sat up abruptly.

The silk quilt slipped off her body, revealing the glaring marks on her fair skin.

But she didn't care.

A pair of cold eyes locked onto him.

"Are you serious about what you said?"

Jiang Yanbai looked at the light in her eyes and his Adam's apple rolled.

He nodded.

"Of course it's true."

She spoke slowly, her voice hoarse.

"I'll keep this request for now."

"I'll use it when I think of it."
