Chapter 12: Obsessive Childhood Sweetheart's Forced Pampering - Run Away with Me
"Hmm..."
With her mouth completely gagged, Gu Shanshan let out a muffled groan and struggled violently.
She kicked backward with all her might, but the man behind her grabbed her and held her down, unable to move her body at all.
"Mmm..."
Gu Shanshan struggled to twist her body, trying to break free from the man's grasp.
The phone slipped from my hand and fell to the floor with a thud.
Knock knock knock...
There was a knock on the door. "Sir, what's wrong? Do you need help?"
"Mmm!"
Help me!
Unaware of who was attacking her from behind, Gu Shanshan desperately tried to scream for help.
But with his mouth covered, he couldn't make a sound.
The two were very close, and Gu Shanshan could feel the muscles of the person behind her tense up instantly, as if they were afraid of something.
A voice came from outside the door again, "Sir?"
Before Gu Shanshan could answer, another light voice came, "Alright, stop asking. It's just trying on clothes, what could possibly happen?"
"Yes, maybe I'm just overthinking it."
The boy outside scratched his head, didn't ask any more questions, and went into the fitting room next door.
After the people outside left, the man visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
He still didn't dare to let go of Gu Shanshan's mouth rashly, fearing that if Gu Shanshan screamed, the bodyguards waiting outside the fitting room would rush in.
He won't be able to escape then.
The person in his arms was trembling with fear, and he realized that he had just scared the person because of his nervousness.
He immediately leaned down apologetically and whispered in Gu Shanshan's ear.
"Shanshan, don't be afraid, it's me, I'm Jiang Ziheng."
Upon hearing this, Gu Shanshan's tense body gradually relaxed, and the heart that had been in her throat finally settled down.
She moved her head, signaling Jiang Ziheng to let her go.
Jiang Ziheng then realized that he was still covering Gu Shanshan's mouth, so he quickly withdrew his hand and turned Gu Shanshan to face him.
He placed his hands on Gu Shanshan's shoulders, his eyes full of apology.
"Shanshan, I'm sorry. I came back secretly because I was afraid of being caught by Gongye's people. That's why I hurt you just now."
Gu Shanshan shook her head, "It's okay, it's just that it's you."
He thought he had been kidnapped by some bandits.
What he feared even more was that the person who covered his mouth was Gong Ye, which would mean that Gong Ye would discover that he had bought a phone, inserted a SIM card, and was planning to secretly contact Jiang Ziheng.
He's been pretending to be obedient in front of Gong Ye for so long. Once Gong Ye discovers that he's not sincere, he'll definitely suffer a terrible fate.
“Aheng, Gong Ye played some recordings of you for me. He said you left after taking the money he gave you.”
"nonsense!"
Jiang Ziheng hurriedly explained, "Shanshan, you have to believe me. I swear, I, Jiang Ziheng, have never done anything to betray you."
As he spoke, he held up two fingers, his eyes serious and anxious.
He was afraid that Gu Shanshan would misunderstand him, thinking that he was someone who would abandon her for money.
Gu Shanshan smiled and gently rubbed Jiang Ziheng's stiff face.
“Aheng, don’t worry, I have never believed him.”
He's not stupid.
Although he did waver a little when he first heard the recording.
But later, when he was locked in the basement, he thought about it carefully and understood.
He guessed that the recording must have been made by a voice actor to deceive him.
He spent more time with Jiang Ziheng, so how could he not know what kind of person Jiang Ziheng was?
Gu Shanshan frowned as she recalled Gong Ye's threatening words.
"Aheng, your family..."
Before Gu Shanshan could finish speaking, Jiang Ziheng interrupted, "Shanshan, don't worry. The reason I haven't appeared during this time is because I sent my family abroad to avoid suspicion. I should be abroad now too, but..."
Jiang Ziheng took out an ID from his pocket and handed it to Gu Shanshan to look at.
"In order to avoid being discovered by Gong Ye's people, I spent some money to change my identity and come back."
The country he took his parents to was relatively poor and underdeveloped. He spent more money to find someone who would sell his identity information. He chose someone who looked like him and came by cargo ship instead of by plane.
After drifting at sea for a full week, they finally returned to City A.
As he spoke, Jiang Ziheng pulled out another ID card.
He handed it to Gu Shanshan, saying, "Shanshan, this is the new ID card I prepared for you."
At this point, Jiang Ziheng mustered his courage and looked seriously into Gu Shanshan's eyes.
With a hint of nervousness in her voice, she asked, "Shanshan, if we could leave, would you be willing to come with me?"
"The place where my parents and I are now is not as prosperous as City A; it's filled with an atmosphere of poverty and backwardness. Would you... be willing to escape with me?"
After asking the question, Jiang Ziheng looked away, not daring to look at Gu Shanshan's face.
My heart was pounding with nervousness.
Holding her new ID card, Gu Shanshan smiled.
She truly lived up to her reputation as his target; he was right about her.
How could he betray such sincere and pure feelings?
Besides, Jiang Ziheng is his target for conquering this world. If he doesn't stay by Jiang Ziheng's side, where else can he go?
He had originally planned to contact Jiang Ziheng.
However, he was no longer the Gu Shanshan he once was, and he bit his lip, looking at the person in front of him with a troubled expression.
"Aheng, there's something I need to tell you. If you can accept it, I will definitely go with you without hesitation."
"I accept anything, as long as you're willing to be with me."
Before Gu Shanshan could even say what it was about, Jiang Ziheng eagerly agreed.
Gu Shanshan blushed slightly, moved by the sincerity of the man in front of her.
However, the thought of Gong Ye was like being doused with cold water, instantly cooling his excited heart.
With her head down, she spoke with a heavy heart, "Aheng, I have to tell you, I've been with Gong Ye all this time."
As she spoke, she pulled off the scarf around her neck, revealing mottled purplish-blue bite marks on her neck.
"Aheng, I've been played by Gong Ye."
Seeing those glaring bruises, Jiang Ziheng's eyes reddened.
His fists were clenched tightly, and he cursed under his breath through gritted teeth.
"Scumbag!"
Gu Shanshan lowered her eyes and continued, "Aheng, I know my body isn't clean right now. If you mind, you don't have to worry about it..."
"I don't mind!"
Jiang Ziheng grabbed Gu Shanshan's arm and urgently expressed his true thoughts.
"Shanshan, it's not your fault, it's that beast Gong Ye's fault. In my heart, you will always be the purest."
To like someone is to like everything about them.
Instead of punishing or disliking someone for their mistakes.
All the sins and mistakes were caused by that scumbag, and had nothing to do with Gu Shanshan.
What's more, he had long harbored a secret crush on Gu Shanshan, but at that time, there was always a man watching over Gu Shanshan.
The man sat in the expensive black car, his face obscured. The car window was slightly ajar, and he stared at Gu Shanshan like a wolf eyeing a lamb, not allowing any other woman to get close.
Anyone who tries to get close to Gu Shanshan will eventually disappear from her vicinity.
That man was like a pervert who coveted Gu Shanshan.
Back then, he was timid and lacked courage. As Gu Shanshan's deskmate, he could only watch her silently without daring to approach her or tell Gu Shanshan about the fact that he had been being spied on.
Now, he no longer wants to be as cowardly as before.
"Sparkle, when are we leaving?"
Jiang Ziheng didn't want Gu Shanshan to stay by Gong Ye's side for even a day longer.
Gu Shanshan knew Jiang Ziheng was a good person, but she didn't expect him to be this good.
A happy smile couldn't help but spread across her face as she picked up her phone from the ground.
"Aheng, I originally planned to contact you secretly after I bought the phone, but I didn't expect you to show up."
This was a truly unexpected and delightful surprise.
He added, "There are two bodyguards guarding outside the fitting room. They can't leave today. Gong Ye will be away on a business trip for three days next Wednesday. Use these two new ID cards to book a flight for 1 p.m. On Wednesday, go directly to the airport and wait for me. I will be there on time at 1 p.m.
Having been by Gong Ye's side for so long, Gong Ye sometimes didn't avoid discussing work matters with Assistant Wang.
That's why he learned about Gong Ye's schedule.
"That......"
Jiang Ziheng opened his mouth as if to say something, but there was a knock on the door of the fitting room, and the voice of one of the bodyguards came from outside.
Knock knock knock...
"Madam, are you feeling better?"
Upon hearing this address, Gu Shanshan's expression changed, and she subconsciously looked at Jiang Ziheng.
Jiang Ziheng shook his head, indicating that he didn't need to worry about him.
Afraid that the bodyguards would barge in, Gu Shanshan said calmly, "It'll be here soon."
After saying that, she picked up the clothes she was holding and whispered to Jiang Ziheng.
"You can leave after I leave."
Jiang Ziheng nodded, his gaze lingering on Gu Shanshan as he silently saw her off.
When Gu Shanshan opened the door and went out, Jiang Ziheng was hiding behind the door, so the bodyguard did not see him.
Gu Shanshan handed the clothes in her hands to the bodyguard. "I like all of these after trying them on. Let's go pay the bill."
The bodyguard nodded, picked up the clothes, and followed Gu Shanshan out of the fitting room.
After a long while, Jiang Ziheng came out of the fitting room and immediately listened to Gu Shanshan's words, using the new ID card to book tickets for both of them to leave.
......
Gu Shanshan didn't expect that as soon as she entered the door, she would see Gong Ye, who was supposed to be away on a business trip, sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking at her with a cold gaze.
In an instant, my heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition surged into my mind.
"come over."
Upon seeing Gu Shanshan, Gong Ye beckoned with his finger, as if calling a puppy.
Gu Shanshan suppressed her unease, forced a stiff smile, and obediently went over.
As soon as she approached, Gong Ye grabbed her arm and pulled her into his arms.
"Weren't you supposed to be on a business trip? How come you're back so soon?"
Gu Shanshan's voice was terribly stiff.
"What? Did Shan Shan do something bad? Why are you so afraid of me coming back?"
"No, no, I'm very well-behaved."
Gu Shanshan quickly spoke up, adding, "I went shopping and bought a lot of clothes."
Gong Ye didn't care about the clothes at all. He pinched Gu Shanshan's face and asked in a hoarse voice.
"Sparkling, is there anything you want to say to me, hmm?"
"No!"
Gu Shanshan answered quickly, as if she had been stepped on.
Seeing Gu Shanshan's nervous expression, Gong Ye's lips curled into a cold smile as he pulled Gu Shanshan tightly into his arms.
Long, slender fingers rested on Gu Shanshan's cheek, then wandered along her delicate neck.
She made a pinching motion, her voice cold and menacing, "Shanshan, I'm giving you one last chance. Don't you really have anything to say to me?"
