Chapter 21: The Cold-Blooded Sentinel's Overbearing Pampering of the Little Guide: Vanishing Before Our Eyes
"Only one hour?!"
Gu Shanshan exclaimed in surprise. He thought there would be at least four or five hours left, but he never expected it to be only one hour.
"Madam, what's wrong?"
The housekeeper noticed that Shan Shan looked unwell and hurriedly asked her what was wrong.
Gu Shanshan is the apple of their master's eye. If anything happens to her, it would be their dereliction of duty as subordinates.
"fine."
Gu Shanshan shook her head, but her pale face didn't look like anything was wrong.
[007, an hour went by too fast. I still have so many things I haven't had time to do, so many things I haven't had time to say to Gong Ye. Could you...]
Before Gu Shanshan could finish speaking, she was ruthlessly interrupted by the system.
[Sorry, host, no.]
This is a system rule; I have neither the right nor the authority to interrupt.
[Host, if you have something to say, you can go find your target now and explain it to them.]
The system's words left Gu Shanshan speechless, unable to utter a single word.
Looking up at the butler, she said, "Where is Gong Ye? Tell me the address, I need to go find him!"
The housekeeper looked at Gu Shanshan with a troubled expression.
His master forbade him to speak, "But Madam, Mr. Gong, he..."
"You call me Madam, which means that in this family, Gong Ye and I are equal in status. Gong Ye is your master, and so am I."
Gu Shanshan stepped forward, adopting an aggressive demeanor.
"Could it be that in your heart, you never actually consider me your master?"
The butler's forehead was beaded with sweat as he hurriedly explained, "No, Madam, it's just..."
"Shut up."
Gu Shanshan interrupted the butler, "I don't care what your reasons are, I only know that I need to know where Gong Ye is right now!"
"You know Gong Ye cares about me a lot. If you upset me, and I say something to Gong Ye, then your fate will be..."
Even if Gu Shanshan hadn't said what followed, it had already made the butler break out in a cold sweat.
Everyone knows how much Gong Ye cares about Gu Shanshan, and they are even more aware of Gong Ye's violent nature.
The butler didn't dare to provoke them at all.
Gu Shanshan could tell from the butler's expression that he was afraid.
He patted the butler on the shoulder, using a combination of soft and hard tactics.
"But don't worry, now that you've told me Gong Ye's whereabouts, when I see him I will tell him that you were forced by me, and I certainly won't let him make things difficult for you."
After saying that, Gu Shanshan withdrew her hand.
Despite being extremely anxious inside, he maintained a calm demeanor on the surface.
"You choose to disobey my orders now, and afterwards when Gong Ye returns, I will speak ill of you in front of him and punish you."
"Or choose to obey my orders now, and when Gong Ye returns, I will speak on your behalf to him and have him reward you."
"Butler, this choice isn't difficult, is it?"
The butler sighed deeply.
I originally thought the lady was a soft and cute person, but who knew she could be so terrifying when she bites.
"According to the schedule, Mr. Gong should have retrieved his belongings by now and is in a church not far from this villa."
As he spoke, he bowed to Gu Shanshan.
She respectfully placed the navigation map that appeared on her phone on the ground. "Madam, the gentleman is at the location marked in red."
"Madam, if you go there now, you will be able to meet the gentleman at the church."
Thanks!
Gu Shanshan grabbed her phone and rushed outside.
He drove halfway before turning back, shouting, "Give me the car keys!"
"Madam, would you like a driver to take you there?"
The butler took out the car keys while asking questions.
"No, I want to be alone with Gong Ye and don't want anyone to bother me."
Gu Shanshan grabbed the car keys and hurried to the garage.
Not long after, the sound of a car driving away was heard.
The butler thought for a moment, then found another phone and respectfully reported the situation to Gong Ye.
Gu Shanshan sped along in her car, wishing she could go even faster.
Gu Shanshan still had rabbit ears and a tail, only the fur on her arms had faded a bit.
Therefore, he wore casual pants and a hooded sweatshirt to cover his tail and ears.
Thirty minutes later, Gu Shanshan's car stopped in front of the church.
He wasn't feeling well because of the catalyst he had taken.
Even though I hadn't done anything, my chest felt like it was being scraped by a knife, and my legs felt weak and powerless when I got out of the car and started walking.
There was no mirror here, so he couldn't see his own pale, stark face.
Completely bloodless.
The church was quiet, as if it had been reserved for private purposes. Along the way, Gu Shanshan did not see anyone except him.
It's only a few minutes' walk from the outside to the inside of the church.
Gu Shanshan walked with great difficulty, and by the time she reached the church entrance, she felt as tired as if she had run several kilometers.
Looking at the magnificent church in front of her, Gu Shanshan's right eyelid suddenly twitched a few times.
A proverb suddenly came to Gu Shanshan's mind.
A jump to the left brings wealth, a jump to the right brings disaster.
Realizing what she was thinking, Gu Shanshan quickly shook her head, trying to shake off the jumbled thoughts in her mind.
He thought to himself that this place was quiet and peaceful, and apart from him and Gong Ye, there was no other living person. How could there be any disaster?
After comforting myself, I walked towards the church.
He had a gut feeling that the person he was looking for was waiting for him inside.
Gong Ye stood with his back to the door, holding Gu Shanshan's white suit in his hands, looking up at the painting in front of the church with a calm gaze.
The thought that he would soon be marrying Gu Shanshan here filled him with great joy.
His usually cold face softened at this moment, and a smile even appeared on his lips.
It was obvious that Gong Ye was in an extremely pleasant mood at this moment.
Gong Ye possessed a beast-like keen intuition. Just as Gu Shanshan reached the church door, before she could even utter a sound, he suddenly turned around.
Their eyes met instantly as Gu Shanshan, who was panting heavily, met.
"Sparkling..."
"Gong Ye..."
Almost simultaneously, the two called out each other's names, gazing intently at one another from a short distance apart.
A glance that lasts a lifetime.
[Ding! Reminder to the host: You only have twenty minutes left before leaving this world. Please cherish this time.]
The system's words brought Gu Shanshan back to her senses in an instant.
He took the first step and ran towards Gong Ye.
Seeing Gu Shanshan running towards him, Gong Ye felt even more delighted. He put down his white suit jacket, opened his arms, and waited for Gu Shanshan to step over him and pounce on him.
However, the change happened in an instant.
As Gu Shanshan ran towards Gong Ye, she had only run halfway and hadn't even had a chance to throw herself into his arms when a loud bang suddenly came from above.
Gu Shanshan stopped moving and subconsciously looked up, only to see a pile of disgusting rotten flesh scrambled on the roof.
In the middle of that mass of rotten flesh, only the area where the heart should have been was empty.
Seeing the empty space, Gu Shanshan suddenly thought of Wen Ziting, whose heart had been ripped out by Gong Ye.
Gu Shanshan was right; this lump of rotten flesh was indeed Wen Ziting.
After Wan Ziting's heart was removed, at dawn, because he had no heart and was already infected with the zombie virus, he could not control his body and became a true walking corpse.
Because he had mutated before becoming a zombie, his will was different from that of ordinary zombies.
He was a zombie with his own consciousness, and the last person he saw before he died was Gu Shanshan.
The person he most wanted to kill before he died was Gu Shanshan.
He harbored a deep-seated, obsessive hatred for Gu Shanshan, yet he couldn't find her.
She could only find Gong Ye by the lingering scent of her own blood on his hands, and she secretly hid in the shadows, thinking that wherever Gong Ye was, Gu Shanshan would be there too.
He lay in wait, and sure enough, he caught up with his enemy, Gu Shanshan.
The moment he saw Gu Shanshan about to run towards Gong Ye, his heavy body immediately plummeted from the ceiling.
Wen Ziting's body was covered in disgusting pustules and maggots.
Gu Shanshan felt nauseous just looking at it.
He wanted to run, but his body was already extremely weak, and his vitality was almost exhausted.
In this situation, he has no way to escape.
Everything happened almost in an instant. No matter how fast Gong Ye moved, he couldn't be as fast as Wen Ziting, who was closest to Gu Shanshan.
As that disgusting mass of rotten flesh fell from the sky and was about to crush her, Gu Shanshan had already forgotten to hide the existence of the system.
In a panic, he shouted, "007, I'm leaving right now! Take me away, quick!"
"Shanshan!" Gong Ye shouted angrily, his face pale.
The two shouted almost simultaneously. Before Gong Ye could grab Gu Shanshan, a blinding white light flashed before their eyes.
After the white light, both Wen Ziting, covered in pus and blood, and Gu Shanshan vanished without a trace before Gong Ye's eyes.
Gong Ye reached out, but grasped at empty air.
If it weren't for the few drops of pus and blood dripping onto the ground, emitting a disgusting, fishy smell, Gong Ye would have mistaken everything that had just happened for a dream.
"Sparkling..."
Gong Ye's low, hoarse voice was filled with deep sorrow.
In the silent church, only Gong Ye's voice could be heard; no one would answer his calls anymore.
Gong Ye recalled the cry Gu Shanshan made before she disappeared, and his originally sorrowful expression suddenly turned dangerous.
He clearly remembered that when Gu Shanshan disappeared, she shouted, "007, take him away."
Who is 007, and where did he take his treasure?
"007......"
Gong Ye murmured the number, something seemed to flash through his mind, but it was too fast.
He couldn't grab anything in time.
Just as Gong Ye was filled with doubt, he suddenly heard footsteps.
Gong Ye squinted and looked sharply toward the source of the sound, where he saw Gong Mo, who should have been in the imperial capital, appear before him.
What are you doing here?!
Gong Ye's voice was extremely cold.
Gong Mo curled his lips in a sarcastic smile, without answering Gong Ye's question.
He countered, "My dear brother, don't you want to know where Gu Shanshan went?"
