What he got in return was a sweeping kick from Minister Gu: "Get lost, the car is being requisitioned."
Without waiting for anyone's reply, he threw the woman in his arms into the car, then jumped in himself, started the engine, and drove away.
This entire series of actions takes no more than ten seconds in total.
Xia Hongna was taken away completely before she could even react.
The young man left behind was speechless and frustrated: "What's going on? Can't they stop turning their backs on me like this?"
But even with the biggest complaints, it seems there's nothing that can be done now.
Everyone's disappeared, what else can they be doing?
Why....
Fine, let's just walk back.
Poor thing, the bag is still in the car.
Otherwise, you could at least get a ride on a motorcycle.
...........
With the unscrupulous Minister Gu driving, Xia Hong had no choice but to accept it, no matter how unwilling she was.
You can't just jump out of the car, can you?
Finally, the car actually drove into the mountains.
"Where are we going?" Xia Hong asked anxiously. Why was this man driving into the mountains?
cough.
As the editor-in-chief, receiving all sorts of manuscripts every day naturally leads to some unpleasant thoughts.
Gu Ziling wasn't oblivious to the doubts in the woman's eyes beside her, and chuckled softly:
"What? Are you afraid I'll do something to you?"
cough.
"What am I afraid of? Gu Ziling, where are you going? Don't you know this is illegal? I can call the police!"
"Oh, call the police? Go ahead and call them!"
"you!"
She wasn't even afraid of calling the police, so what could possibly threaten this man? Xia Hong was troubled. What should she do? She had truly run into a thug!
Moreover, he's the kind of extremely unreasonable thug!
Looking at the woman who had nothing left to say, Minister Gu secretly curled up a slight smile at the corner of his mouth.
How long has it been since this happened?
This woman is truly heartless. She leaves for many years, and even when she comes back, she doesn't see him for several years!
So you've been holding up so well, huh? Why are you in such a hurry now?
It's just going into the mountains.
Ultimately, Minister Gu's mentality is no different from that of a child; he's just feeling resentful that the woman closest to him has abandoned him for so long.
It's rare to see such a scene from Minister Gu; even the Gu family has never witnessed such a sight.
Abbreviation: Rare.
The car had been driving for a short while when a house came into view.
Xia Hong's eyes widened in disbelief. Who would have thought that there was such a paradise on earth hidden in these mountains?
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this is the place where immortals live.
Okay, none of what I was thinking before actually exists.
In reality, things aren't as dangerous and gloomy as they are in novels.
cough...
For a moment, Xia Hong felt slightly uncomfortable.
The car slowly drove into the courtyard.
Hearing the commotion outside, the people inside rushed out: "Young Master Ling?"
"Grandma Hui."
"Hey, it's you. Why are you alone? Where are the others?"
Gu Ziling smiled and glanced into the car: "There."
Aunt Hui is old and can't see that far away clearly: "Huh? Why can't I see it?" she asked.
Upon hearing this, Gu Ziling spoke again, her tone clearly tinged with amusement: "Grandma Hui, don't worry, I'll go and catch the person right away."
Arrest them?
"Young Master Ling, what's wrong with you?"
Who is it?
Could something bad have happened?
Older people are bound to overthink things.
"Grandma Hui, don't worry, it's just a... stray house cat."
Forehead?
Grandma Hui paused for a moment, then understood, her old face beaming with a relieved smile: "Hurry up and bring them down."
"oh."
Inside the car, Xia Hong wasn't unwilling to get out; she was simply powerless to do anything about it.
The man had helped Xia Hong with his hand with his bow tie when he got on the bus, and he was wearing a seatbelt, so it would be strange if he could move.
At this moment, he was just a salted fish, completely at the mercy of others!
Click.
The car door opened.
Looking at the man standing outside with a smirk, Xia Hong was furious and roared through gritted teeth:
"Gu Ziling, let me go!"
"What's the rush? I've never seen you in a rush these past few years."
Hearing this, Xia Hong felt discouraged.
What's the rush?
Do I want to see you?
How is that possible?
If it weren't for these two chance encounters, Xia Hong would never have planned to see this man again in her life.
We're both in Kyoto, how can we not see each other for years?
Clearly, someone is deliberately avoiding us, isn't that right?
Finally getting off the bus, Xia Hong breathed a long sigh of relief and asked seriously, "Gu Ziling, what exactly do you want to do with me by bringing me here?"
"nothing."
nothing?
Sure?
Are you stupid?
Why did you kidnap yourself here?
"cough!"
A sudden cough made Xia Hong realize that there was a third person there.
"I..." For a moment, she didn't know how to address the person, feeling awkward.
Minister Gu enjoyed seeing the woman in front of him looking anxious and embarrassed; she was just like before, unchanged.
However, of course, it's impossible to just watch the woman remain in such an awkward position; that would be too much to bear.
"Come here, let me introduce you."
Xia Hong was dazed as Gu Ziling forcefully pulled her hand over:
"This is Grandma Hui."
Hello, Grandma Hui!
"Good, good, good. Is this your first time here? Come in and have a seat."
Xia Hong's hands were being held by the man on one side and by Grandma Hui on the other, making it difficult for her to refuse.
"I...."
