Chapter 757: I just love you too much!
Three minutes later, the boss came out carrying a brand new case of bottled water. He put the water at the door, removed the plastic packaging, took a knife and cut open the cardboard box seal, revealing the neatly arranged bottled water inside. He then stood up and looked at Gu Hua.
"The water is all here. Take a look and pick whichever bottle you want. After you've taken it, just put the money in the box by the door. It's two yuan for one bottle, four yuan for two. I won't say any more. There are people inside urging me to go play cards. Do whatever is convenient for you. Put the money in the box by the door. Don't call me!" After saying that, he turned around and went into the house.
Gu Hua watched the boss enter the room, bent down and casually picked up two bottles of mineral water. She turned around to leave, but bumped into a wall of people and staggered back two steps! Before she could see what was happening in front of her, her mouth was covered by a pair of large hands, and she was dragged into the room the boss had gone into.
Gu Hua was tied to a chair with rope, her hands were tied behind her back, and her mouth was stuffed with a wad of cardboard. Her eyes were not blindfolded. She scanned the room, which was more than ten square meters, and there was no one playing cards in the room except for three people! One was the boss, another was the driver who had just said he was filling up the gas tank, and the third was Zhang Yicheng, whom she had seen before.
Zhang Yicheng didn't bother to hide himself. Seeing that Gu Hua had already recognized him, he smiled and walked over, pinching Gu Hua's chin and whispering, "You won't listen to reason, so why don't you just agree to go out for dinner and a movie? If you had just listened to me, how could I have gotten into this mess? Look, you're the one suffering now! You're good-looking, and you have a good family background. I'm not at a disadvantage with you!" As he said this, he reached into Gu Hua's pocket, took out her phone, turned it off, and threw it on the ground.
Gu Hua looked at the other person quietly. She was neither excited, nor did she resist, nor was she afraid.
Seeing her like this, Zhang Yicheng narrowed his eyes, turned to look at the driver waiting to the side, and asked in a deep voice, "When you came here just now, was anyone following you? Were you discovered by anyone? Is there anything unusual about the people here?"
The driver quickly shook his head: "I just drove a rental car there. Nobody noticed anything unusual. Her boyfriend saw her get in the car and then left. On the way, she called home and just said she wanted to buy a roast duck. Nobody noticed anything unusual, and she didn't say anything extra to her family. This girl definitely won't notice anything unusual about me. She's so easy to fool! Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, I know these things well! You can trust me with my work."
Zhang Yicheng nodded upon hearing this. He knew this person's background, which was why he found the right person! Thinking of this, he looked at the two and said, "Leave this to me for now. You two go out and keep watch at the main gate for me. Remember to notify me if anything unusual happens. The money has already been transferred to your cards. Another sum of money will be transferred to your cards after the matter is settled. Go!"
The two chuckled, their eyes filled with a sense of dread as they looked at Gu Hua. After meaningfully closing the door, they went outside, took two stools, and sat down to guard the entrance.
Inside the room, Zhang Yicheng removed the crumpled paper from Gu Hua's mouth. Before Gu Hua could make a sound, he put his index finger to her lips and said, "Shh, don't make a sound, be quiet."
"Don't make a sound, don't even think about shouting. You'll only suffer if you do. This is the middle of nowhere, no one can hear you. Even if they could, there are guards outside, so no one can get through. If you cooperate with me obediently, I'll be gentle and won't hurt you. You, be a good girl and don't resist. Otherwise, if you hurt yourself, I'll be unhappy."
Gu Hua wasn't intimidated by him, nor did she intend to make any pointless moves. She calmly looked at Zhang Yicheng: "You're disgusting. What exactly do you want to do? Have you considered the consequences of your actions? Are you sure you can bear them? Can you withstand the wrath of the Gu family, the Zhou family, and my sister? You've investigated me; you should know my family background, you should know how important my family's love for me is. Are you sure you're not courting death?"
Zhang Yicheng turned and sat down in the only clean spot in the room, on a newly bought bed with the transparent plastic still on. He chuckled and said, "If the Gu family and Zhou Guyin didn't value you, I wouldn't have done all this. It's because they care about you so much, their love for you is so strong, that's why I took action! They would collapse if anything happened to you! Tell me, once the news of our relationship gets out and everyone on the internet knows, do you think it's better for us to get engaged and married, or to send me to prison and have you face everyone's doubts, suspicions, and strange looks alone? In my opinion, parents who love their children would choose the first option! And since your family comes from the countryside, you'll probably care even more about what others think, so we will definitely get married."
Gu Hua spoke in an icy tone: "When you investigated my family, you should have noticed that the person in charge wasn't my grandparents, nor my parents, but my younger sister, Ayin. Do you think Ayin is someone who cares about the strange looks from outsiders? No, she won't. She'll only send those scumbags and you to jail, and then use every means to make sure you rot in jail. And my boyfriend and I will use all the knowledge we've gained in our lives to ensure you never see the light of day again. If you're not afraid, go ahead and try! We might as well go down together! I'm not afraid anymore! Marry you? Ha, you're dreaming!"
Seeing Gu Hua's calm and fearlessness, Zhang Yicheng began to feel a pang of panic. Even among the daughters of prominent families in Beijing, if faced with such a situation, their families, for the sake of face, would either force the two to marry, claiming they were actually dating, or send them abroad under the pretense of illness for treatment, never to return! Yet Gu Hua, a girl from the countryside, dared to speak with such confidence; ultimately, it was Gu Yin who gave her that confidence! Therefore, this matter was extremely risky. If it succeeded, he would be a man of high status! If it failed, he could very well end up in jail for life. No way! This had to succeed!
Thinking of this, Zhang Yicheng's ferocious face softened into a gentle expression. He stood up, smiled, and walked over, gently rubbing Gu Hua's face. He said tenderly, "I was just saying these things in anger. It's mainly because I like you so much, senior. I know you have a boyfriend, but I still can't control my feelings for you. Love doesn't have a first-come, first-served rule. I can't bear to see you with someone else, I can't bear to see you coming in and out of each other every day, talking intimately, and I can't bear to see you marry him and have children. It would kill me! I love you so much, how can I give you to someone else?! That's why I thought of doing this! Please don't blame me, okay? I love you so much, you can understand, right?!" After Zhang Yicheng finished speaking, Gu Hua looked at him expectantly.
Gu Hua calmly and coldly said, "I don't understand, and I don't want to understand. You'd better let me go, or the consequences will be something neither you nor your Zhang family can bear!"
