Yun Wanqing was stunned for a moment, then immediately turned around and followed Yun Suiwan.
"What? You just left like that?"
"Are we still going to break down this door or not?"
"They're already gone, why would we hit it? Do you really want to offend Young Master Lin?"
The women all left too.
Gu Fanyan shoved Lin Zhibai away, grabbed her skirt and hurriedly put it on before running out.
She then realized that she was on a cruise ship and had nowhere to run.
Her pacing back and forth only made it easier for people to see her disheveled appearance.
She found a dimly lit corner and tried to hide herself as much as possible.
Just then, a figure walked up to her.
She immediately recognized who this person was and got up to leave.
But he pressed her shoulders down, took off his coat, and wrapped it around her.
"I don't need..."
Before she could even voice her refusal, he had already turned and left.
Gu Fanyan remained seated until Yun Suiwan came to her side.
"Do you need to change?" Yun Suiwan handed her a dress.
Gu Fanyan raised her head and glanced at her through her messy hair.
Then she silently accepted the dress.
"Thank you," Gu Fanyan said to Yun Suiwan after changing into her dress.
"I've called a speedboat. Would you like to come back with me?" Yun Suiwan asked.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Gu Fanyan's face. "You know about my relationship with Lin Zhibai."
“I’ve only heard a little bit about it,” Yun Suiwan replied.
"Do you think I'm cheap?" she asked.
"Can you tell me why you're with Lu Dongjue?" Yun Suiwan asked.
"...Anyway, it's not because we're in love."
Yun Suiwan breathed a sigh of relief. Gu Fanyan's words were enough.
"The speedboat is here." Yun Suiwan saw a light getting closer and closer on the sea not far away.
Gu Fanyan nodded, "Wait for me for 5 minutes."
Gu Fanyan arrived outside the cabin where the ball was being held and found a waiter. "Could you please give this dress to Young Master Lin?" she said, handing the coat to the waiter.
Just as he was about to turn and leave, Yun Wanqing's voice suddenly rang out.
"Gu Fanyan, wait a minute," Yun Wanqing blocked her way, "I want to show you something."
She handed the phone to Gu Fanyan, where a video was playing.
Gu Fanyan's face grew paler and paler, and her hands even became unsteady, causing her phone to fall from her grasp.
Yun Wanqing caught the phone steadily and sneered, "Is it good-looking?"
She was very satisfied; that was the expression on Gu Fanyan's face at that moment.
The more Gu Fanyan cares, the greater her chances of winning.
"What...what do you want?" Gu Fanyan asked.
“No problem,” Yun Wanqing replied, “I want you to stop having any contact with Lin Zhibai from today onwards.”
"Otherwise, I will post this video online and let everyone see your true colors."
Gu Fanyan looked coldly at Yun Wanqing, a glint of cold light appearing in her eyes.
Yun Wanqing's heart trembled. Of course, she knew about Miss Gu and the Gu family's methods.
She deliberately pretended not to be afraid, "Gu Fanyan, don't even think about doing anything to me. This kind of video file can be copied millions of times."
“I had it all planned out long ago. If anything happens to me, it will only make the video get posted online sooner.”
"Think about the consequences."
After saying that, Yun Wanqing left triumphantly.
Gu Fanyan's condition is not right.
Ever since she boarded the speedboat, Yun Suiwan had sensed a low mood emanating from her.
Gu Fanyan wasn't like this when they were talking just now.
Something must have happened during the five minutes she was gone.
Yun Suiwan pulled Lu Dongjue aside and asked, "What exactly is your relationship with Gu Fanyan?"
Lu Dongjue immediately replied, "It's alright."
It was only in front of Yun Suiwan that he would appear in this manner, answering questions immediately.
"Don't rush to clarify yourself," Yun Suiwan pouted. "Didn't you say before that you didn't want to see her get hurt?"
“Wanwan…” His eyes were about to show the innocent look of a big boy again.
“Someone is trying to hurt her, but I don’t know why. Do you want to go and ask her?” Yun Suiwan immediately told the truth.
I can't stand his cutesy act; he's like a fierce Alaskan Malamute possessed by a spoiled young lady.
If he continues like this, Yun Suiwan might be forced to say what's on her mind.
"Who wants to harm her?" Lu Dongjue raised an eyebrow. "She is the eldest daughter of the Gu family."
Who would be so blind as to mess with her?
Yun Suiwan was stunned for a moment, and these words gave her a sudden inspiration.
That's right, anyone who dares to go against Miss Gu must meet two conditions.
Brainless.
There's something to hold against them.
They naively believe that the evidence they have against someone can be very useful.
Yun Wanqing: Just give me my ID number.
Yun Suiwan brought Lu Dongjue to Gu Fanyan's side.
She still wanted to confirm.
She gave Lu Dongjue a wink, signaling him to ask.
Lu Dongjue spoke up: "Fan Yan, I'm not really interested in your private affairs, but Wanwan cares about you a lot. So, in order for her to get a good night's sleep, you should tell her what's on your mind."
After he finished speaking, he let out a soft breath. If it weren't for Yun Suiwan, he might not be able to say such a long sentence all day.
Yun Suiwan: ...
This guy has a rather unique way of comforting people.
Gu Fanyan glanced at the two of them. "You've both seen the video Yun Wanqing has, haven't you?"
“I didn’t see it,” Lu Dongjue replied immediately. “I only heard Lin Zhibai describe it.”
After he finished speaking, he gave Yun Suiwan a special look.
His eyes were filled with a strong will to survive.
"Lin Zhibai knows about this video?" Gu Fanyan asked, somewhat surprised.
"Do you really think Lin Zhibai would be interested in Yun Wanqing?" Yun Suiwan asked rhetorically.
Gu Fanyan's beautiful eyes widened slightly, and after a moment, she lowered them.
Her reaction was much calmer than Yun Suiwan had imagined.
“Lin Zhibai seems to have some plan, but he won’t reveal the details,” Yun Suiwan said. “But I believe he should be able to suppress this matter.”
Gu Fanyan was silent for a while before raising her head. "I will never forgive Lin Zhibai."
Her gaze was so resolute, so ruthless.
Yun Suiwan had a gut feeling that there were many things between her and Lin Zhibai that she didn't know.
"I will handle this myself." After saying that, Gu Fanyan looked at the vast sea and said nothing more.
The sea breeze ruffled her waist-length curly hair and her slender figure.
As the year drew to a close, Yun felt a slight tremor in her heart.
She suddenly felt that Gu Fanyan was like a mermaid in a movie, as if she might jump into the sea at any moment and disappear without a trace.
Lu Dongjue took her hand and whispered, "The wind is too strong, let's go back to the cabin."
Back in the cabin, Lu Dongjue told her to rest for a while.
But her mind was racing, and her gossipy nature was fully awakened.
"I really don't understand how Gu Fanyan could have fallen for Lin Zhibai back then."
Lu Dongjue's gaze shifted, "Isn't Lin Zhibai good? He's handsome and generous, and many girls liked him back then."
“I remember back then, you and he had a good relationship, and you often went to his house.”
