When Jiang Hua came downstairs, she saw Gu Yiming getting up and putting on his coat. She quickened her pace and asked, "Are you going out?"
Gu Yiming lowered his head and kissed her, nodding and saying, "I need to go to the company to take care of some things. It's best if you stay home."
After thinking for a moment, she added, "Didn't you say you wanted to get your hair done? Jinyu will go with you, so don't worry."
Jiang Hua was a little speechless. She wasn't a child anymore, so she stood on tiptoe to tie Gu Yiming's tie while scolding, "It's just getting your hair done, why are you so worried? What can I do by myself?"
Gu Yiming looked at the top of Jiang Hua's head with gentle eyes: "Let Jin Yu accompany you, just in case."
Jiang Hua wanted to refuse, but Gu Yiming suddenly hugged her tightly: "I don't want, and I dare not, for what happened with Fanfan to happen a second time."
His tone revealed an undeniable lingering fear.
Jiang Hua's heart softened immediately.
But when Jiang Hua went out, she realized how incredibly foolish her soft heart had been!
Besides Jin Yu, Gu Yiming actually hired six tall and burly bodyguards for her! Six!
Imagining herself being surrounded by a group of burly men and needing two cars just to get around, she discussed with Jinyu, "Could we bring fewer of them? I'm just going to get my hair done..."
Jin Yu also seemed somewhat embarrassed, but still said, "This is President Gu's order... I... dare not disobey."
Jiang Hua thought that Gu Yiming was also thinking about her safety, so she gritted her teeth and went out with six bodyguards.
As she entered the hair salon, she whispered to the bodyguards behind her, "You guys wait outside, Jinyu will come in with me."
The head bodyguard said expressionlessly, "Mr. Gu instructed us to stay close to Madam at all times."
Jiang Hua looked at the bodyguards' bulging muscles and said with a troubled expression, "Look at the way you all are. How are people supposed to do business if you walk in like this?"
The bodyguard said indifferently, "We can book the whole place for you!"
As he spoke, without waiting for Jiang Hua's consent, he waved to a bodyguard who was about to go inside.
Jiang Hua had a headache and quickly signaled Jin Yu to grab the bodyguard, saying, "Why waste so much effort? Besides, even if you clear the area, the hairdresser will still be under pressure."
The bodyguard remained indifferent: "Mr. Gu told us to follow Madam!"
Jiang Hua was absolutely furious. She angrily said, "I'm going in right now, let's see who dares to follow! It'll only take less than an hour. We'll contact you immediately if anything happens. If anyone dares to follow, I'll call Gu Yiming and have them arrested!"
After saying that, she opened the door to the hair salon without a second thought and went inside.
Jin Yu glanced at Jiang Hua and, as expected, saw that no bodyguards had followed. She gave Jiang Hua a thumbs up. Her resolve only strengthened; she absolutely could not offend Miss Jiang, not even the CEO.
Jiang Hua lay comfortably in the chair and got her hair done. The hairdresser asked her with a smile if she wanted a massage. The masseuse was new to Thailand and had excellent skills.
Hearing about massages, Jiang Hua felt a strong urge to try it. She pulled Jin Yu into a private room, and soon an ordinary-looking man came in, which surprised Jiang Hua.
The man seemed to be quiet, but after smiling at her, he gestured for her to lie down.
Jiang Hua, knowing that Jin Yu was still beside her, felt at ease letting the man give her a comfortable massage.
Before long, Jiang Hua comfortably drifted off to sleep. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly felt a chill on her neck. She felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her, and she immediately woke up.
Looking down, she realized she had somehow ended up sitting in a chair, with a dagger pressed against her neck.
The masseur who had seemed so meek and submissive just moments before now appeared as a completely different person, staring intently at her ears.
She glanced around and realized that she and the man were the only ones in the room.
Where did Jinyu go?
The man seemed to know what she was thinking and said fiercely, "Are you looking for your girlfriend? Don't worry, she won't be back anytime soon!"
Jiang Huaxin was startled and blurted out, "What did you do to her?"
The man continued to stare intently at her ear, without saying a word.
Jiang Hua's mind raced, and she changed her tone, saying, "Big brother, that was my sister just now. If you tell me where she is, I'll give you these pink diamond earrings!"
The man's eyes lit up upon hearing this: "Don't worry, she's fine. I'm here to make money, not to kill anyone. She's just stuck."
Jiang Hua's mind raced. This man only wanted money, which was fine. As long as she could hold him off, Jin Yu would definitely react and come to his rescue.
So she pretended to breathe a sigh of relief, clutching her chest and saying, "That's good, big brother."
Seeing her like this, the man said disdainfully, "Stop talking nonsense and hand over all your valuables! If I'm satisfied, I might spare your life!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Hua panicked and said, "Big brother, please calm down... I... I'll give you anything... please don't hurt me."
As she spoke, she shakily took out her earrings, necklace, and wallet from her pocket, and placed them on the ground at the man's gesture.
Seeing the greedy glint in the man's eyes, Jiang Hua breathed a sigh of relief, but her voice was still trembling with fear as she pleaded, "Brother... I've given you... all my valuables... Can you please have mercy and let me go...?"
The man looked up at the timid Jiang Hua with disdain. He was about to say something when he noticed that Jiang Hua was wearing a bracelet.
His expression immediately changed, and he brought the dagger even closer, saying fiercely, "You filthy bitch, you even gave me all the valuables, and you still have them in your hand! You bastard, you dare to lie to me, I think you don't want to live anymore!"
Jiang Hua could almost feel her blood flowing out. She immediately panicked, silently thinking that even though it was a gift from Gu Yiming, her life was still more important.
She said ingratiatingly, "Brother, don't worry, it's not unforgivable that I forgot about this bracelet for a moment..." She glanced at the man's slightly relaxed expression and said while untying the bracelet, "I'll take the bracelet off for you now, brother, please don't let your hands shake."
The man scoffed, "Give it to me now, stop talking nonsense. I know what I'm doing. You rich peopleāah!"
He was speaking when suddenly a sharp pain shot through his hand. When he looked up, he found that Jiang Hua had escaped his control, and the other woman from before was glaring at him menacingly.
Enraged, he immediately went forward and started fighting with the other party.
Jin Yu subdued him in no time and handed him over to the bodyguard who had just followed Gu Yiming in. Looking at the wound on Jiang Hua's neck, Jin Yu felt dejected, thinking that she might lose her job.
