Chapter 24: The CEO's Keeper of His Little Lover - Is He Dead?
"grumble!"
Gu Shanshan screamed in fright as her small body plummeted to the ground.
Gong Ye was still angry and wanted to strangle Gu Shanshan.
Seeing him fall from the tree still made my heart pound.
Given his temperament, Gu Shanshan dared to run away and disobey his orders.
He deserved to fall from the tree.
That's what I thought in my mind, but my body went against my will.
By the time he came to his senses, he had already swiftly dodged to where Shanshan had fallen, reached out, and caught the falling rabbit.
"grumble......"
Gu Shanshan covered her eyes tightly with both hands, but the expected pain did not come from her body.
With Gong Ye here, he dared not transform into human form.
He was afraid that Gong Ye would pry open his mouth and force him to eat the relic, thus preventing him from becoming a rabbit.
Therefore, he could only endure it and fall down in the form of a rabbit, bracing himself for a miserable fall face-first into the mud.
But unexpectedly, Gong Ye caught him.
Gu Shanshan's original form was petite and soft, white and fluffy, and landed in Gong Ye's palm.
With just one palm, Gu Shanshan's original form could be completely enveloped.
Looking down at the little white ball in his palm, Gong Ye's cold and hard heart softened unbelievably.
An idea popped into his mind that he couldn't suppress.
It's too small.
So cute.
I couldn't resist poking the fluffy white ball of fur a few times with my finger.
Gu Shanshan kept her hands tightly covering her ears, her ears drooping down to block out all external sounds.
His soft, glutinous body curled up in Gong Ye's palm, not daring to move an inch.
He couldn't even look up at Gong Ye.
Someone I thought I'd never see again appeared here.
He lay there like a lamb to the slaughter, his belly exposed, not knowing when the butcher would end his life with a single blow.
After running non-stop for so many days, I was almost eaten by a tiger.
But after only two days of peacefully relaxing in his nest, Gong Ye, that ruthless devil, came to his doorstep.
Gu Shanshan was both anxious and scared, wishing she could disappear into the ground like a mouse and never come out to face the terrifying Gong Ye again.
He was panicked and confused, and had no idea what to do.
Gong Ye stared intently at the soft white ball in his palm, his eyes deep and unwavering, wanting to squeeze the damned little thing to death in his hand.
When I tried to squeeze the little rabbit in my palm with my five fingers, I just couldn't bring myself to do it.
Gong Ye knew he couldn't bear to part with it.
Did he know that Gong Ye had practically rounded up all the rabbits in the country in his search for him?
Let those Taoist priests and celestial masters identify them one by one.
But this little rabbit was quite carefree; it lay down on the tree and took a nap.
Even so, he still couldn't hurt that damned little rabbit.
Touching such a soft and adorable little creature, his heart softened completely, and all his ruthlessness vanished.
He poked the little rabbit's face with his thumb. "Sparkling, if you don't turn into human form soon, I'll have someone start a fire, kill you, pluck all your fur, pierce your body with sticks, roast you over the fire, and eat you piece by piece once you're cooked."
Gong Ye's words made Gu Shanshan tremble even more violently.
He recalled a hunter once saying: "Rabbits are so cute, please add extra spice to make them more delicious."
The thought of having all the hair on my body plucked, being stabbed to death, and being roasted over a fire to become food for Miyazaki evoked a strong urge in me.
Gu Shanshan was so scared that she cried.
His body was shaking like a leaf.
"grumble......"
Don't eat me, my flesh doesn't taste good!
Surprisingly, Gong Ye was able to understand Gu Shanshan's words.
He let out a sneer from his throat, "I'll give you three seconds."
Whether it tastes good or not is up to him to decide.
After speaking, he immediately ordered the bodyguard, "Start a fire!"
Gu Shanshan: !!!
Didn't you say it would take three seconds? How come it's almost cooked and ready to eat in less than a second?
Gu Shanshan felt extremely wronged when she saw the bodyguard instantly start a fire and his sharpened gaze.
I feel cold all over.
Not daring to persist any longer, the white rabbit in Gong Ye's palm disappeared in less than a second.
Instead, a pitiful boy with red eyes was placed in his arms.
Gu Shanshan was physically and mentally exhausted during this period, having traveled for several days in a row.
On top of his head were two cute, drooping rabbit ears.
Seeing those fluffy ears, Gong Ye's heart melted.
Even if you're extremely angry, you should let it out now.
His face was tense, and his dark eyes were fixed on Gu Shanshan's ear, his thoughts unreadable.
The more Gong Ye thought about it, the darker his gaze became as he stared at Gu Shanshan.
Gu Shanshan swallowed hard when she saw Gong Ye's dark eyes.
They used to have pupils, but now they don't even have pupils anymore.
and......
Gu Shanshan leaned against Gong Ye's chest, whose body was unusually cold.
This person is not even human.
"Gong Ye, you..."
He wanted to ask, "What's wrong with you?"
But looking into the dark eyes of the palace maid, he felt terrified and frightened.
He lowered his head, not daring to ask.
His hesitant manner greatly displeased Gong Ye.
He grabbed Gu Shanshan's chin and asked in a cold voice, "Why did you run away!"
God knows how much anger he was suppressing at that moment, and how much self-control he needed to restrain himself from turning the little rabbit in front of him to dust.
Speaking of this, Gu Shanshan felt wronged.
With bloodshot eyes, she stared at Gong Ye and stammered.
"Who told you...you tried to kill me!"
If it weren't for Gong Ye imprisoning his freedom, harboring murderous intent towards him, and taking him to the prepared tomb,
If he hadn't run, he would have lost his life now.
Upon hearing this, Gong Ye gave a cold snort.
He grabbed Gu Shanshan's hand and placed it on his chest. "Did you already notice that something was wrong with me?"
He then placed Gu Shanshan's hand on his face, saying, "You give such high-sounding reasons, but isn't it just because you're afraid of me?"
Gu Shanshan lowered her head guiltily, a hint of unease flashing in her eyes.
He admitted that the reasons Gong Ye mentioned were partly the reason he ran away, which was undeniable.
No one would be unafraid to be with someone whose moods are unpredictable and who might kill you in the middle of the night while you're sleeping together.
"Gong Ye, I..."
Gu Shanshan wanted to say something in rebuttal, but when she opened her mouth, she found that she couldn't come up with any reason.
Gong Ye curled his lips in a sarcastic smile, "Shanshan, I really, really want to kill you."
That morbid possessiveness always haunted him.
Gu Shanshan not only didn't satisfy him, but also wanted to run away.
This is simply adding fuel to the fire.
The more Gu Shanshan tried to run away, the stronger his desire to control became.
"Now, if you know what's good for you, you'd better come back with me obediently, otherwise..."
Gong Ye's gloomy gaze fell upon the ancient tree spirit behind Gu Shanshan.
"I'll make his soul fly away immediately,"
He could tell that Gu Shanshan cared a lot about the tree in front of her.
This realization made Gong Ye extremely unhappy.
He was jealous, possessive, and angry!
They wanted to summon lightning to strike the old locust tree dead, so that it would never be reincarnated.
He had never received such dependence and affection from Gu Shanshan, so why should anyone else?
A dense killing intent instantly filled Gong Ye's dark eyes.
The surging yin energy enveloped every twig and branch of the massive old locust tree.
In an instant, the entire Garan Peak was plunged into darkness, with not a trace of moonlight visible.
The intense blackness was chilling to the bone.
"Gong Ye, no, I'll go back with you. I'll go wherever you go. Don't touch Grandpa."
Gu Shanshan fearfully threw herself into Gong Ye's arms, curling up in his embrace and sobbing.
"Gong Ye, please, please put away this yin energy. I'll go with you, let's go now."
He couldn't harm others, especially his grandfather who had treated him so well.
However, Gu Shanshan pleading for others only fueled Gong Ye's anger.
The overwhelming yin energy not only did not decrease, but instead grew even more arrogantly and violently.
The old locust tree spirit let out painful groans, and its towering canopy trembled and rustled.
"don't want......"
Gu Shanshan roared through her tears.
She closed her eyes, leaned forward without thinking, and placed her lips on Gong Ye's shoulders.
Soft, moist lips were placed on cold, thin lips.
Gu Shanshan felt a chill run down her spine from the man's icy temperature, but she didn't dare to push him away.
He knew that if he dared to push him away at this moment, Gong Ye would really ruin his grandfather.
The soft touch on his lips felt like kissing the cold, hard heart in Gong Ye's chest that had long since stopped beating.
Gong Ye lowered his eyes, his dark pupils growing even darker.
A cold hand landed on Gu Shanshan's waist and lifted him up.
The eerie black aura surrounding him slowly receded until it disappeared completely.
It's unclear how long the two hugged and kissed, but Gu Shanshan didn't dare to resist in the slightest and kept trying to please them.
Finally, he was kissed so hard that he lost consciousness due to lack of oxygen.
......
When he opened his eyes again, he had no idea how much time had passed or what had happened in between.
He opened his eyes and instantly realized that he was extremely cold all over.
He was held horizontally in Gong Ye's arms, instinctively moving closer to the warmth.
But Gong Ye's body was so cold that it made his head spin.
A series of piercing wails and cries came from all around, and Gu Shanshan asked in confusion.
What is that sound?
Looking around, all was pitch black except for a faint light shining from the road ahead.
A sense of foreboding rose in Gu Shanshan's heart, and she posted the message in a trembling voice.
"Gong Ye, where exactly is this place?"
As he asked the question, his hands unconsciously clenched the sleeves of Gong Ye's clothes.
It was only then that he realized that Gong Ye was not wearing a black suit.
Instead, he was dressed in ancient, deep red clothing, the crimson garment embroidered with dark patterns he couldn't decipher.
Gu Shanshan felt increasingly uneasy and looked down at herself.
She discovered that she was also covered in crimson, and the style of her clothes resembled an ancient wedding dress.
"Sparkling, don't you know? This is hell."
Gong Ye answered his previous kiss.
"hell?"
Gu Shanshan's heart pounded as she watched the ghosts burning in the flames beneath the Meng Po Bridge, screaming in agony.
He lowered his eyes and looked down, raising his hands to examine them.
Could it be that he was really killed by Gong Ye in his sleep? And is he now a ghost?
One question after another flashed through Gu Shanshan's mind.
With a dull, questioning gaze, he murmured, "Am I... dead? Is this... a ghost marriage?"
