Wen closed her eyes, adjusted her emotions, and suppressed her inner feelings.
"So, now that you've finished reading and giving your opinion, can you let me go?"
As soon as Wen Yi finished speaking, the mysterious woman burst into laughter, a very mocking laugh, looking at Wen Yi as if she were a clown.
The mysterious woman turned and sat on the sofa, her legs bent, looking languid and elegant.
She propped her head up with her right hand and said, "Gu Huaixu will always be like this. The women he falls for are not only ugly, but they also have no class whatsoever. He'll be like this his whole life, blind in both eyes and heart."
"Gu Huaixu really hates you, doesn't he?"
Forced to lie on the bed, Wen Yi looked at the woman from this angle. She was still excessively beautiful, but Wen Yi noticed some subtle fluctuations in her eyes.
The woman's face instantly darkened as she stared at Wen Yi.
Wen smiled and said, "Gu Huaixu hates you, but he is very important to you."
Do you know the consequences of speaking recklessly?
"Paying the price isn't about talking nonsense, it's about saying things that hit a nerve and make you angry and embarrassed."
"presumptuous!"
The woman slammed her hand on the sofa in anger, "Believe it or not, I'll have someone cut out your tongue right now!"
“I believe you,” Wen Yi said, neither afraid nor backing down. “But cutting off my tongue won’t change what I say. And right now, you look utterly ridiculous, utterly laughable…”
Snap!
The woman grabbed a water glass from the side and threw it at Wen Yi's body.
Wen Yi winced in pain and closed her eyes, but the next second, she stubbornly opened them again.
The woman had already stood up from the sofa. "You will pay the price for your foolish words."
As soon as she finished speaking, the woman turned around and said, "Burn the villa and its inhabitants together, cleanly and completely."
As she gave the order, the woman glanced at Wen Yi and sneered, "If that so-called Second Master of the Imperial Garden still appears alone tomorrow, then his reputation as a wife-killer will be truly confirmed."
"Remember, you lost your life because of your foolish actions."
“Even if I didn’t say those things, you wouldn’t let me go.” Wen Yi’s words were very direct, and he simply ignored the woman and stared at the ceiling, laughing.
"From the moment you captured me, you were waiting for Second Master Gu to make a fool of himself tomorrow, to solidify his reputation as a jinx to his wives. I think you've even prepared more things to deal with Second Master Gu tomorrow, all because he married me, the woman Gu Huaixu once loved, and you want to avenge Gu Huaixu."
"What a ridiculous statement."
The mysterious woman coldly uttered these words before turning and leaving.
The maid poured gasoline around Wen Yi, and Wen Yi closed her eyes.
She is no longer afraid of death; on the contrary, she feels that death is a relief.
When the fire started, Wen Yi closed her eyes. Her hands and feet were bound tightly, and she didn't even struggle. But when the thick smoke rose and the feeling of suffocation gradually filled Wen Yi's senses, her calm state was broken.
Before dying, Wen felt fear.
She began to struggle almost instinctively, but to no avail. The thick smoke was scalding hot, and her consciousness began to fade. She lost the strength and desire to struggle, and her whole body went limp, with only burning flames in her vision.
However, at that moment, Wen Yi seemed to see someone covering their mouth and breaking through the flames, heading straight for her.
When Wen Yi saw those eyes, they were as deep and unfathomable as an abyss, captivating all who looked into them.
Wen Yi's memory began to blur. She seemed to see her first encounter with Gu Huaixu. In her drunken stupor, she saw the same pair of deep eyes and was completely captivated.
Just looking into those eyes made her not want to do anything else; she just wanted to follow her feelings.
Ah Xu's eyes.
It is Ah Xu's eyes.
Before Wen Yi lost consciousness, tears fell, and her mind was filled with only one thought: Was it Ah Xu who came to pick her up?
...
When will she wake up?
"You've slept for a whole day and night, and you're saying you're fine?"
"Find a way to wake her up before tonight."
The deep, commanding voice kept ringing in Wen Yi's ears. Wen Yi was in a daze, and he seemed to hear footsteps and the sound of a door closing.
She opened her eyes almost instinctively and stared blankly at the ceiling.
But then, memories of being abducted, the fire, and the mysterious woman flooded back. Wen Yi was so shocked that she got out of bed, looked around, and confirmed that this was the hotel room in Beijing that Second Master Gu had arranged for her.
"I'm not dead?"
Wen Yi murmured almost subconsciously, looked around, then got off the bed, touched her skin and face, and finally ran uncertainly to the mirror.
I'm fine, except for being a little pale.
She was rescued.
As Wen Yi leaned against the sink and looked up at her reflection in the mirror, it was as if she saw a scene of a raging fire.
She was bound by her hands and thrown to the ground, unable to struggle.
It was at this moment that Wen Yi saw someone rushing in to save her, covering their face. She saw those eyes, she saw Gu Huaixu.
It was Gu Huaixu who saved her.
As soon as the thought popped into her head, Wen Yi immediately turned on the tap and rinsed herself with cold water over and over again. The icy stimulation brought her back to her senses.
Gu Huaixu is dead.
She killed him, and she witnessed it with her own eyes. The car crashed into him, and before the ambulance could arrive, Gu Huaixu had already stopped breathing.
Ah Xu is dead.
He died before her eyes, he died at her hands.
Therefore, the person who saved her from the fire was just a fleeting moment of lucidity before death. Perhaps someone came to rescue her, but she missed Gu Huaixu so much that she mistook the person for Gu Huaixu.
Wen Yi is still rational; she doesn't have any emotional problems.
After washing her face with cold water, Wen Yi composed herself, went out of the room, and checked on the room.
It was exactly 7 p.m.
Wen Yi remembered that there was a banquet at nine o'clock in the evening. Gu Erye had told her about it before, but she didn't take it seriously. She just came to listen to it as if it were a task.
But what the mysterious woman meant was that this banquet was related to her, and that she wanted to use the banquet to deal with Master Gu and solidify his reputation as a jinx to wives.
Wen Yi must appear with Master Gu and put on a show of marital bliss in front of that woman and everyone at the banquet.
Wen Yi disliked and resented this Second Master Gu. She even disliked his face so much that she had nightmares about it.
However, Wen Yi remembered her identity and also remembered that in the matter of Xiao Lan, Second Master Gu was absolutely on her side.
From the moment she married into the Imperial Garden, this second master never actually made things difficult for her.
Therefore, Wen Yi must perform well in this banquet and this scene, and he must also save face for Master Gu and slap the mysterious woman in the face. This is a responsibility of his status.
Once Wen Yi had adjusted herself, she prepared to go to Master Gu for clothes, change, and attend the banquet.
However.
Just as Wen Yi was about to leave, her phone rang.
Wen glanced at the caller ID and saw that the name on the caller ID was Xiao Kongkong. She quickly picked up the phone and answered, "Kongkong?"
"We've got news about your maternal grandparents."
