Chapter 34: Obsessive Childhood Sweetheart's Forced Pampering - Little Fool
Gong Ye gazed deeply into Gu Shanshan's eyes, his dark pupils filled with undisguised affection.
He held Gu Shanshan's hands tightly in his palms and placed them over his heart.
Gu Shanshan wanted to be able to clearly feel every beat of her heart.
"Shanshan, look into my eyes, touch my heart, can you feel how much I love you? Give me a chance to take care of you, to cherish you, and to take care of Jiang Ziheng with you. Are you willing?"
The man's voice was magnetic and seductive.
Gu Shanshan's heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was about to burst out of her chest.
He admitted that his heart had been moved.
Under Gong Ye's expectant gaze, she nodded with a blush, as if bewitched.
"Okay, I promise you."
As soon as Gu Shanshan finished speaking, a system notification sounded in her mind.
[Congratulations, host! The target's corruption level has decreased by 50%. Keep up the good work!]
Gu Shanshan was momentarily stunned.
Staring wide-eyed in astonishment, [007, what exactly do you mean by that? Isn't Jiang Ziheng still lying in the hospital in a vegetative state? How could his "darkening value" have decreased...?]
For some unknown reason, Gu Shanshan fell silent instantly.
After a long pause, he spoke in disbelief.
[007, the target isn't Jiang Ziheng, but... Gong Ye, right?]
"Host, you've finally found your target! I've been waiting so long!" 007 exclaimed excitedly.
Do you know how desperate I felt as the system when I saw you misjudge your target from the start and insist on going down that path anyway?
Gu Shanshan frowned and interrupted the system's long-winded explanation.
[007, I think this is unreasonable.]
No wonder no matter how much he tried to win over Jiang Ziheng before, it had no effect whatsoever.
It turns out that his real target was never Jiang Ziheng.
It was Gong Ye.
No wonder his dark side hasn't diminished at all after all this time.
The system roared, "[What's wrong with this, Host? It's perfectly reasonable! Gong Ye's dark side is practically overflowing the screen, why can't you see it?!]"
Gu Shanshan recalled everything that had happened between her and Gong Ye since she came into this world, and helplessly rubbed her forehead.
No wonder his "darkening value" hadn't changed at all, considering what had happened between him and Gong Ye.
[007, didn't you say that the target in this world is your childhood friend? Why is it Miyako? There's absolutely no basis for that!]
He searched through the memories he received, but couldn't find even a trace of Gong Ye being his childhood sweetheart.
[007, you're kidding me!]
007 felt wronged. [Host, Gong Ye is your childhood sweetheart! You're the one who's mistaken about him from the start. He's reminded you many times, but you just haven't come to your senses.]
Gu Shanshan was so angry that her teeth ached.
[007, tell me honestly, what exactly is it about Gong Ye and me that makes us seem like childhood sweethearts?]
Anyone with common sense can see that his relationship with Jiang Ziheng is more like that of childhood sweethearts.
[Host, Gong Ye and you are indeed childhood sweethearts. From elementary school to junior high, until your family sent you abroad, the person who accompanied you the most and understood you the most was indeed Gong Ye.]
Gu Shanshan became more and more confused as she listened.
[007, don't think you can fool me just because I'm naive.]
【No, don't believe me? Ask Gong Ye. When you were little, he followed you around every day, silently watching your every move. You never had a close friend growing up, only classmates. It was all because Gong Ye coerced and lured away anyone who tried to get close to you. Even Jiang Ziheng never dared to get too close to you.】
So, he and Gong Ye are childhood sweethearts with a hidden connection?
Gu Shanshan's questioning gaze fell on Gong Ye.
Seeing Gu Shanshan staring intently at him, Gong Ye smiled with pleasure.
"Sweetie, is there something on my face?"
"No, no."
Gu Shanshan shook her head stiffly.
Biting her lower lip, she mustered up the courage to ask.
"Gong Ye, tell me honestly, did you know me a very, very long time ago? Not only did you know me, but you also... secretly followed me for a long time?"
Upon hearing this, Gong Ye's smile froze, and he lost his warmth.
A dark glint flashed in his eyes, and he spoke expressionlessly.
"Who told you that?"
That's exactly what they mean.
Gong Ye's behavior has already said it all.
Even after receiving the answer, Gu Shanshan still couldn't quite believe it.
Seeing Gu Shanshan's dejected look, Gong Ye's expression grew increasingly grim.
However, since Gu Shanshan had just agreed to be with him, he could only suppress and restrain himself no matter how irritable he felt.
He possessively wrapped his arm around Gu Shanshan's waist, trapping her in his embrace.
Without allowing Shan Shan any resistance, he said, "Shan Shan, tell me, who told you those things just now!"
He clearly remembered that he had already dealt with all the people who knew about these things.
Only he knows the dark side of the past.
How did Gu Shanshan know that he had followed him like a pervert for several years?
"I guessed."
Gu Shanshan would never reveal the system.
He made up a lie, saying, "I feel like you're familiar to me, and it reminded me that I seemed to have been followed for a long time."
"You know that!"
Gong Ye's voice had turned cold.
The force with which he held Gu Shanshan was even greater.
The tightness made Gu Shanshan's waist ache, and she couldn't help but struggle a little. "Gong Ye, you're hurting me."
Gong Ye kept a cold face, but did not loosen his grip even slightly.
She said stiffly, "Shanshan, do you think I'm a pervert after following you for so long?"
Gu Shanshan thought to herself, "Of course."
But now that he knows Gong Ye is his target, even if Gong Ye is a pervert, he doesn't dare to tell the truth.
She shook her head, giving a reassuring smile. "No, you've never hurt me. I don't believe it."
Upon hearing Gu Shanshan's words, Gong Ye's eyes darkened further.
He dared not tell Gu Shanshan that the truth was often far more terrifying.
He once bribed a servant in the Gu family to put drugs in Gu Shanshan's food, ordered someone to distract the Gu family members, and then entered the Gu family openly, went into Gu Shanshan's bedroom, and slept with her in his arms.
Moreover, he had done this countless times.
His slender fingers caressed Gu Shanshan's fair face as he murmured in a hoarse voice, "Yes, I love you so much, how could I bear to hurt you?"
"I just like you so much, that's all I'm doing."
The man's voice became lower and hoarse as he spoke.
His fingers moved to Gu Shanshan's slender neck and gently rubbed it.
It was as if he was about to grab Gu Shanshan by the throat, threaten him, and force him.
Clearly, if Gu Shanshan showed even the slightest sign of something amiss, Gong Ye would not hesitate to take action.
"Shanshan, are you angry? Do you still mind?"
Gu Shanshan felt a chill run down her spine for no apparent reason.
Are you angry? Or do you mind?
That's absolutely true.
But Miyako was his target, what could he do? He was desperate.
He shook his head against his conscience, "I'm not angry. It's been so long since then, I don't mind anymore. Besides, you've never done anything too outrageous to me."
Gong Ye's stiff expression finally softened, and he bent down to cup Gu Shanshan's face in his hands.
He pressed his lips to Gu Shanshan's lips until she was almost suffocating before releasing her.
He coldly ordered Wang, the assistant driving in front, "To the hospital."
After giving the order, he lowered his head and gently explained to Gu Shanshan, "Jiang Ziheng is in the hospital. I know you are grateful to him, so let's go see him together."
Gu Shanshan recalled that after she left that day, Jiang Ziheng was left in a vegetative state in the hospital for so long, and he hadn't been thrown out yet. It must be because Gong Ye paid for his treatment.
Looking sincerely at Gong Ye, she said, "Gong Ye, thank you for taking care of Jiang Ziheng for me."
“It’s not on your behalf. He helped you before. Now that I’m your man, it’s my duty to take care of him for you.”
Gong Ye corrected.
......
In a hospital ward.
The two stood in front of Jiang Ziheng's hospital bed. Gong Ye put his arm around Gu Shanshan's waist and leaned down to gently wipe away the tears from Gu Shanshan's eyes.
"Don't cry, the doctor said he's doing very well, so don't worry. I promised you I would take care of him with you from now on."
For someone as proud as Gong Ye, it's considerate to take care of his feelings and even to look after his former rival for his sake.
Gu Shanshan was touched.
Wiping away her tears, she smiled at Gong Ye.
"Thank you."
"Silly girl." Gong Ye playfully flicked Gu Shanshan's pert nose as punishment.
He continued, "I'm your man, so never thank me."
"Um."
Gu Shanshan nodded with a blush, said a few more words to Jiang Ziheng, and then left with Gu Shanshan only after the doctor urged them to hurry.
Once downstairs, after carrying Gu Shanshan into the car, Gong Ye stood outside the car and said to Gu Shanshan.
"Honey, wait here for me for a moment. I'm going upstairs to get something and then I'll come back down."
"What is it? Why don't I go with you?"
As she was speaking, Gu Shanshan was about to get out of the car when Gong Ye stopped her.
Gong Ye leaned down and whispered a few words in Gu Shanshan's ear in a hoarse voice.
"It's a BYT, baby, do you want to come along?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Shanshan hurriedly took a few steps back and obediently sat back in the back seat of the car.
Blushing, she said, "You go ahead, I'm not going."
Gong Ye let out a few muffled laughs from his chest, pushed open the car door, and drove into the hospital.
He didn't go to get the things he had just mentioned, but went straight to Jiang Ziheng's ward.
The doctor who had just come to urge them to leave stood outside the door and respectfully stepped aside when he saw Gong Ye.
Gong Ye is a man with a strong sense of jealousy and possessiveness. How could he possibly allow Gu Shanshan and Jiang Ziheng to spend too much time together?
The doctor who just came to urge them on had only dared to come over after receiving his orders beforehand, using the excuse that the patient needed to rest to urge them to leave as soon as possible.
Even though Jiang Ziheng was in a vegetative state, Gong Ye was still very reluctant to spend time in the same room with him.
He was consumed by intense jealousy and envy.
He entered the ward alone and stood in front of Jiang Ziheng's bed.
Looking down at Jiang Ziheng, whose eyes were tightly closed, a cold smile appeared on his lips.
She leaned close to Jiang Ziheng's ear and whispered, "Jiang Ziheng, did you see that? Gu Shanshan and I are together now."
“From now on, he is mine, and I will gradually remove you from his side and from his heart.”
"I will use every means to possess him, to make him weep beneath me..."
At this point, Gong Ye let out a disdainful sneer.
"Jiang Ziheng, do you know how silly and naive Gu Shanshan is? I only used a little trickery and I got her to willingly submit to me."
Gong Ye leaned down and whispered in Jiang Ziheng's ear how he had schemed against Gu Shanshan, word by word. After finishing, he stood up with a satisfied smile on his lips.
"You'll never have the chance to see his captivating appearance."
After speaking, he didn't even glance at Jiang Ziheng behind him again, and turned to leave.
I've heard that people in a vegetative state aren't completely oblivious to the outside world; they can sense what people are saying in their ears and everything happening around them, but they can't wake up.
Gong Ye thought darkly, "If only Jiang Ziheng could also sense what's happening in the outside world."
He wanted to provoke Jiang Ziheng to death so that he and Gu Shanshan would truly be without any barriers between them.
Only a naive fool like Gu Shanshan would believe the words of this beast.
Gong Ye, who had turned away, did not see that after he left, Jiang Ziheng, who should have been in a vegetative state, slowly opened his eyes.
A pair of bloodshot eyes stared angrily at Gong Ye's back.
