After eating and drinking his fill, Gu Tian lay comfortably on the sofa. Suddenly, he realized that it was dangerous to sleep there, as people could see him from the window.
Gu Tian sat up from the sofa and ran to the study, intending to sleep on the desk. However, the desk was covered with a glass plate, making it very uncomfortable to sleep on.
Gu Tian went to the bedroom.
The bedroom lock was broken, so he pushed the door open.
Liu Fei, who hadn't fallen asleep, sat up in a panic and asked fearfully, "What...what are you doing in the bedroom?"
Gu Tian licked his lips, swallowed, and said apologetically, "Sister-in-law, if I sleep on the sofa, people outside will see me. I originally wanted to sleep in the study, but there's a big glass plate on the desk that's hurting my back. I thought I'd have to sleep in the bedroom."
Liu Fei said in a panic, "Gu Tian, I'm your cousin-in-law! You...you can't do this!"
Gu Tianyin smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, I... I've discovered you're quite beautiful..."
Liu Fei pulled the sheet over herself and pleaded, "Gu Tian, you...you calm down, you...you can't bully me..."
Gu Tian chuckled and said, "Sister-in-law, I've worked here for three years and I've never thought you were so beautiful. Our brother isn't home, and you must be lonely sleeping alone. Let me keep you company."
As Gu Tian spoke, he walked towards the bedside.
Liu Fei curled up in fear and said, "Gu Tian, you...you can't do such a despicable thing."
Gu Tian pounced on him like a hungry wolf.
…………
Liu Fei cried all night.
Gu Tian snored loudly, feeling very content. Perhaps this was the most enjoyable night of his life.
Gu Tian was a bachelor, his family was dirt poor, his parents were sick and had a lot of debt, and no woman was willing to marry him.
In the past three years, his cousin Gu Le introduced him to odd jobs at the town government, where he earned some money. However, it couldn't keep up with his parents' illnesses.
My parents both have cancer. They not only need surgery, but also radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The disease is like a bottomless pit, swallowing up all the money I've earned over the years.
Gu Tian originally wanted to make some money to renovate his house and then get married.
I never expected that three years of hard work would leave me with not a single penny.
Now, my father is urgently waiting to have surgery.
Gu Tian had completely given up on getting married; he knew that he would be a bachelor for life.
Gu Tian snored, occasionally muttering in his sleep, "Wife...I have a wife..."
Liu Fei wanted nothing more than to kill Gu Tian with a knife, but she didn't have the guts or courage.
Besides, she didn't have the strength to kill anyone. If she didn't kill Gu Tian with one slash, Gu Tian would get up and stab her back.
Liu Fei doesn't want to die yet.
Finally, dawn broke.
Gu Tian woke up, glanced at Liu Fei, and said unhappily, "Sister-in-law, your eyes are red and swollen like peaches. If you go out like this, people will become suspicious. Tell me, what's there to be sad about? Money is just an external thing. Our cousin is the town mayor; he'll have plenty of opportunities to make money in the future. By the way, I slept with you last night, and you didn't even lose a hair. What's there to be sad about?"
Liu Fei forced a smile and said against her will, "I... my stomach hurts a little, that's why I'm crying."
"Your stomach hurts? Humph! Are you trying to find an excuse because you're worried I'll do it again?"
After Gu Tian finished speaking, he pounced on Liu Fei again.
It was finally nine o'clock.
Gu Tian got out of bed and said, "Sister-in-law, it's time to get up, get dressed, and we'll go to the bank to withdraw money."
Liu Fei got out of bed and got dressed.
Gu Qi huffed and puffed, "Put some makeup on me to cover up those swollen eyes, so no one will notice. Oh, and when you go out later and run into people, you have to put on a smiling face, don't look like you're going to a funeral."
"I...I understand."
Liu Fei, having put on makeup, asked ingratiatingly, "Cousin, look, people can't tell I have puffy eyes anymore, right?"
Gu Tian nodded, holding a dagger in his hand. He waved it in front of Liu Fei and said, "Sister-in-law, I've been sharpening this knife for half a day. It's very sharp. As long as I slit your neck, I'll cut your blood vessels and trachea. In less than ten seconds, you'll be dead."
"Cousin, I'll listen to you and take out the 80,000 yuan to give to you. There won't be any complications."
“Sister-in-law, you’re a smart woman. You should know that money is just an external thing. Don’t risk your life for a few tens of thousands of yuan. In a moment, I’ll hold your arm with one hand and hold a dagger with the other. If you dare to scream, I’ll stab you.”
"Cousin, don't worry, I will never scream."
The two went out the door.
Gu Tian supported Liu Fei's arm with one hand, and put the other hand in his pocket, holding a dagger.
As I passed the town government's guardhouse, a security guard greeted me, "Madam, are you going out?"
Liu Fei forced a smile and replied, "I'm going out to buy something."
Gu Tian had worked odd jobs at the town government for three years, and the security guards knew him.
"Old Gu, I heard you went back to your hometown. When did you get back?"
"I came back yesterday."
The security guard said, "Old Gu, I thought you weren't coming back. It's good that you're back. Doing odd jobs here is better than farming back home."
Gu Tian nodded.
The two walked slowly down the street, which was not crowded.
The abbot followed behind.
Ma Yunfei went into a small shop where there was a public telephone.
Ma Yunfei picked up the phone and dialed the town police station. He said nervously, "A criminal has taken the town mayor's wife, Liu Fei, hostage and taken her to the street. They may be going to the bank to withdraw money. Please send someone to the bank immediately."
After making the call, Ma Yunfei ran towards the bank.
The bank was not yet open at that time.
Liu Fei glanced at her watch and said to Gu Tian, "The door will open in five minutes."
Gu Tian looked around nervously, but he felt that he had sneaked into the mayor's house last night without anyone noticing.
The bank finally opened.
Gu Tian helped Liu Fei inside.
A bank teller recognized Liu Fei and greeted her warmly, "Good morning, Auntie!"
"Hehe... I want to withdraw some money."
"Auntie, how much money do you want to withdraw?"
Liu Fei said, "Withdraw all the money from the card, don't leave a single penny."
At that moment, three police officers from the local police station ran toward the bank, followed by three security guards.
Ma Yunfei hid in a grocery store diagonally opposite the bank and observed what was happening inside.
The police slowly approached the bank, peering around cautiously.
One of the policemen said, "There are only two people inside. The woman seems to be the mayor's wife, and the man is the mayor's cousin. We didn't see any criminals."
