Chapter 18 I Don’t Want to Implicate You
Gu Nan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lin Layue's reaction.
She buttoned up Lin Layue's messy clothes, helped him up, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, hold on, I'll take you home."
Lin Layue held back her hot tears, suppressed the restlessness in her body, sniffed the pleasant scent on her neck, and leaned on Gu Nan's shoulder.
Dai Yao was timid and was frightened by Gu Nan's two bricks. She hid aside, covering the wound on her head, not daring to stop or say a word.
Dai Jun hadn't finished venting his anger on Lin Layue when he was beaten by Gu Nan again. He was not willing to accept this and angrily stood in front of the two of them.
"Who the hell are you? Why are you breaking into my house? Put him down, or I'll call the police!"
Gu Nan snorted coldly, his eyes as deep as a cold pond, "Call the police? Fine, after that, we'll go to the hospital and draw blood to see what you've given Lin Layue."
"That kind of thing is so strictly regulated. How can you justify the suffering Lin Layue endured today if you don't go to jail for ten or eight years?!"
Dai Jun didn't expect that Gu Nan's words would get him down. He immediately denied it, "You, what are you talking about? I don't understand! You broke in illegally and hit someone. Do you think you're right?"
But the way his eyes flickered was not convincing at all.
Gu Nan narrowed his eyes, anger rising in his heart.
If her primary goal wasn't to rescue Lin Layue, she would really call the police immediately and arrest him first!
Those things must have a beginning. Dai Jun has a very poor psychological quality and is not the person who can take charge. As long as the police are competent and hire a good lawyer, they will definitely be sent to jail!
She was already angry on the way here, angry at this broken world and this broken plot. A person who went out to work and earn money could be drugged and forced.
But these energies were invisible and useless. It was not until she saw Lin Layue tied to the bed and tortured horribly that she realized how cruel and insane this world that lives for flesh is.
How dare they do this in broad daylight?
Gu Nan was so angry that he wanted to knock them down and send them to the police station.
But reason told her that she couldn't do this. She had to take Lin Layue away first to prevent them from doing something desperate and ending up in a loss.
Gu Nan gave Dai Jun a cold look, suppressed his impulse, supported Lin Layue and turned to leave.
Gu Nan took a taxi and before getting off, she asked the driver to wait for her for a few minutes and take her back later. So as soon as she helped Lin Layue out of the door, the driver immediately opened the car door for them.
Seeing Lin Layue's head covered in blood and looking a little strange, the master was afraid that he would get into trouble, so he couldn't help asking: "How did this happen? Are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital?"
"I was cheated when I came here to work." Gu Nanyan explained briefly and urged: "Master, please drive quickly."
The master sat back in the driver's seat, stepped on the accelerator and rushed onto the highway.
Gu Nan briefly checked Lin Layue's injuries. The most serious one should be the blunt force wound on the back of the head. The wound was nearly two centimeters long. The bleeding had stopped temporarily, but the swelling was severe. He didn't know if the bones were injured.
The second was the bite wound on the wrist, with teeth marks so deep that the bone was visible, blood and flesh were blurred, and the hands were covered in blood.
As for the scars on his limbs and torso, some light and some heavy, they were simply too numerous to count.
The more Gu Nan looked, the angrier and more frightened he became.
She couldn't imagine that if she had come a little later, or if the system hadn't reminded her and she had waited at home foolishly, after a night, she didn't know whether he would still be alive.
His lips were almost pressed into a straight line, Gu Nan's face was as gloomy as water, and he dialed the police number.
"Hello, I want to call the police."
As soon as he finished speaking, his wrist suddenly tightened. He lowered his eyes and saw Lin Layue's pleading gaze.
His cheeks were unusually red, his black bangs were already soaked with cold sweat, the corners of his upturned eyes were red, and the obedient silence he had shown when he said goodbye to her in the morning was gone.
His pale lips opened and closed slightly, silently uttering a few words: "Don't call the police."
Gu Nan covered the phone with his hand, his voice low and husky, a little suppressed, "You're just going to let it go after being beaten like this?"
Lin Layue shook her head with difficulty, her long and thick eyelashes were covered with misty water marks, and her deep and restrained eyes were full of pity and embarrassment.
"It will implicate you." He said hoarsely.
It is true that he is a victim, but Gu Nan fought for him. If the Dai brothers and sisters bite back, Gu Nan will be more or less responsible for their injuries.
It was enough that Gu Nan could take him away. He couldn't repay kindness with enmity and implicate her.
Gu Nan looked at him deeply, suppressing his anger, not knowing whether to be angry or disappointed.
She had prepared for the worst before she took action. She rescued Lin Layue, beat people, and made threats. Her original intention was definitely not to protect herself and avoid judicial assistance.
Gu Nan is not afraid of punishment, but she hopes that Lin Layue can get justice and that this terrible thing can be investigated thoroughly, not only for Lin Layue, but also for others who may suffer from coercion in the future.
The person on the other end of the phone started asking questions.
Gu Nan turned his eyes away, exhaled lightly, and changed his words, "Hello, I want to report..."
Lin Layue listened quietly, biting her lips tightly, and said nothing.
It wasn't until the call ended that he realized his eyes were wet again.
He understood too well the look in Gu Nan's eyes when he looked at him. Once upon a time, his mother had also looked at him that way.
It's disappointment, helplessness, and the feeling of being a good person.
He huddled closer to her, his voice hoarse, "I'm sorry."
Gu Nan categorically denied: "You are not wrong, you don't need to say sorry, you are not sorry for anyone in today's accident, they are the ones who are sorry for you."
Lin Layue leaned against the window, suppressing the discomfort in her body and remaining silent.
When she got off the car, Lin Layue was already badly burned, her eyes were blurry, and she couldn't even stand steadily.
Gu Nan took great effort to help him to the sofa in the room, and then went to the bathroom to flush the toilet for him.
"Lin Layue, Lin Layue, wake up." Gu Nan patted his shoulder, "I've put some water in there for you, soak in it, and you'll be fine after you get over it."
Logically speaking, it is impossible to bear it, and it must be not suitable for children to relieve it, but the male protagonist can bear it even if he can't.
Lin Layue opened her eyes, which were wet. She looked at Gu Nan for a long time before her eyes focused, "It hurts..."
Gu Nan had no other choice but to wrap his conspicuous wound with plastic wrap, and without taking off his clothes, he helped him up and let him sit in the bathtub.
Almost at the moment of entering the water, he tilted his head back and let out a short and comfortable gasp.
Then he curled up like a baby and sank into the water, with only his pale face exposed above the water.
Gu Nan was afraid that he would drown, so he stood aside and watched.
The cold water had a good suppressive effect at first, but before long, the body adapted to the temperature of the cold water and the restlessness came back again.
The skin all over the body seemed to be burned by fire, and there were thousands of insects and ants crawling in every pore. The pain became more and more intense, making it even difficult to breathe.
Lin Layue looked confused and painful, and subconsciously grabbed Gu Nan's clothes.
The voice was hoarse and indescribable. "It hurts so much, sister, I feel so bad..."
