Chapter 2: They ate and ran away, what kind of person do they take me for?
Inside the presidential suite, only a bedside lamp was on.
Under the dim yellow light.
The man had a high nose and deep-set eyes, with striking features and an imposing presence. He was like a masterpiece created by the Creator, neither too elaborate nor too ordinary, every inch of him was just right.
Su Niannian's eyes were filled with a few scattered tears, making her look extremely pitiful.
The uncle is so handsome.
It's better than being humiliated by an old man.
Her slender fingers gripped the sheets tightly, and she breathed a sigh of relief the moment she heard the man say that she had no heir.
That way she won't have to worry about getting pregnant.
"release."
Even as Gu Yuheng's self-control slowly crumbled, his dark eyes still noticed the girl's tightly clenched lips.
He never forces anyone to do anything against their will, and if she regrets it now, he can let her go.
Su Niannian snapped out of her nervousness; it was just the first time she'd ever been so nervous.
But she needs him now.
Her gaze was unfocused and broken, her cheeks flushed pink, and her small hands gripped Gu Yuheng's strong arm tightly.
"Uncle, please, have some pity on me, okay?"
The sound was like a gentle, tingling sensation on my heart.
In an instant.
Reason collapsed.
The only sounds were her increasingly rapid breathing and the girl's soft sobs.
The night was deep and still.
Su Niannian cried her heart out, her soft little hands pushing against the man's firm, muscular chest. She shouldn't have been so foolish as to question him.
Gu Yuheng was indeed not lying to her.
He proved himself through his actions.
He is indeed very capable.
"Am I capable?"
"Uncle, I was wrong... Waaah..."
A turbulent undercurrent seemed to surge in Gu Yuheng's eyes, his gaze terrifyingly deep, like a tireless lion that, once it has tasted the forbidden fruit, is unstoppable.
Just as Su Niannian was about to faint.
Gu Yuheng let go of her, got up to go to the bathroom, but after thinking for a moment, he turned back, picked up the girl, and went with her.
After taking a shower, Gu Yuheng did not leave. Instead, he leaned against the headboard and glanced at Su Niannian. The little girl had her eyes tightly closed, her pretty brows slightly furrowed, and she was not sleeping peacefully.
Is she feeling very uncomfortable?
Gu Yuheng prided himself on being cold and indifferent, but at this moment his chest tightened and he felt a little pity.
In the downstairs lounge.
Secretary Gao Xiu suddenly received a text message from President Gu.
Today he accompanied Gu Yuheng to a bidding meeting. However, President Gu was unable to hold his liquor and left midway to rest.
He thought President Gu would come down after a short rest, but he ended up staying until late at night. However, he didn't think much of it and went upstairs with the documents.
Gao Xiu knocked on the door and, before Gu Yuheng could speak, proactively handed over a stack of documents with both hands.
"Mr. Gu, I have prepared the documents."
Gu Yuheng didn't take it with a blank expression, and frowned, saying, "I'm tired. I'll look at the documents tomorrow. Go and get me something."
Gao Xiu almost thought that President Gu had been possessed. How could a workaholic leave his work until tomorrow? However, his focus was on the fact that President Gu would say he was tired.
How can I feel more tired the more I rest!
"Mr. Gu, are you injured?" He suddenly noticed the three red marks on Gu Yuheng's neck.
It looks like a scratch.
However, President Gu has no masochistic tendencies and would not punish himself.
Could there be some kind of murder weapon hidden in the hotel blankets?
Gu Yuheng looked at him and said in a deep voice, "Gao Xiu, I always prefer efficient work. If you keep talking nonsense, you can forget about your bonus next month."
"Mr. Gu, I'm sorry, I'll disappear right away."
Gao Xiu was still diligently saving up for his wife, every penny counted, but upon hearing this, he immediately vanished.
It wasn't until Gao Xiu brought back a bag that Gu Yuheng finished applying medicine to the sleeping girl before lying down to rest.
The next day.
Golden sunlight pierced through the clouds and streamed into the room through the large floor-to-ceiling windows.
Su Niannian was awakened by the blinding sunlight. She subconsciously stretched her arm out from under the covers to shield her eyes, and then a clear, aching pain, as if her whole body had been crushed, was transmitted to her.
The scenes from last night then flooded into her mind.
Every detail is clearly visible.
She suddenly sat up, her gaze falling on the floor, where faded underwear and a fine black shirt were piled together, and white canvas shoes were scattered around the bed.
They all spoke of the madness of last night.
She realized that her most precious thing was gone, and hot tears rolled down her cheeks.
She slowly moved her gaze to the man who was still fast asleep beside her. Even though she was making a lot of noise, she couldn't wake him up. He must be very tired.
The uncle helped her and even applied medicine to her. Su Niannian could feel a slight chill in an indescribable place.
So she didn't resent him.
Su Niannian composed herself, quietly got up, picked up her disheveled clothes from the ground, put them on, and then left like a limping little rabbit.
When Gu Yuheng woke up, the girl was nowhere to be seen in the room. Only a jade Buddha, strung on a red string, that Su Niannian had dropped in her panic was lying quietly on the bed sheet.
Gu Yuheng picked up the pendant with his slender fingers, his tone calm, but his eyes darkened.
"You heartless brat, you ate and ran away, what do you take me for..."
-----
Two weeks later
Knock knock knock.
A loud knocking startled Su Niannian awake from her sleep. Beads of sweat glistened on her fair forehead as she stared at the white ceiling.
Half a month later, she dreamed of that night again.
Her family runs a breakfast shop. When her grandmother was helping out, she fell because she was too tired and hit her head on the floor.
Although he was rescued and his life was saved, he suffered from blood stasis compressing his nerves, resulting in limited movement on one side of his body and frequent headaches.
The only treatment is surgery, which costs 100,000 yuan, but her parents think it's too much money and don't want to pay for the surgery.
After being discharged from the hospital, Grandma could only lie in the small room.
Her parents disliked her from a young age and would often beat and scold her. Her grandmother was the best to her and would always protect her from the baby.
How could Su Niannian just stand by and watch her grandmother suffer from illness?
So she went to look for a job, but was tricked into going to a hotel where she was drugged and almost raped by an older man.
She never told her parents about this, keeping it a secret in her heart. Otherwise, she would not only receive no comfort, but they would also scold her for being shameless and going to offer herself to them.
"What are you dawdling for? Get out here and get to work!"
Li Xiumei stood outside the door and cursed irritably.
Su Niannian could only get up from the bed, which she couldn't even straighten out of. This bed was bought for her from a secondhand market six years ago when they moved to Kyoto.
As soon as her feet touched the ground, she felt a little dizzy. She didn't know why, but she had been feeling tired for the past two days.
She's used to doing manual labor since she was little, and carrying insulated boxes weighing dozens of kilograms is no problem for her. How come she's become so delicate now?
Li Xiumei opened the door and happened to see this scene, and snorted.
"Don't think you can get away with faking illness and not have to work. You have the body of a young lady but the life of a maid. I shouldn't have listened to your grandmother and sent you to university. You wouldn't have become so delicate if you were working at home. You could have gotten married early and earned your brother's dowry money."
After the college entrance examination, Li Xiumei wanted Su Niannian to marry a pig farmer from her hometown. She saw that he was rich and didn't care that he was fifty years old and had a limp.
It was her grandmother who found her university acceptance letter and encouraged her to learn knowledge to change her destiny.
Therefore, Li Xiumei harbored deep resentment towards Grandma Su.
Su Niannian couldn't help but say, "Mom, I'm a person, not an object, not something you can buy and sell at will."
Li Xiumei didn't take it seriously and said with a long face, "Su Niannian, someone like you wants to marry the richest man and become a wealthy wife? Do you think the richest man would even look at you? If you ask me, you'd be lucky to marry a pig farmer."
Su Niannian couldn't understand why her parents, who didn't like her, would still have given birth to her.
They doted on Su Xin and Su Zhe excessively, as if they couldn't get enough of looking at them, while she stood in front of them with nothing but disdain.
Her eyes reddened, and she ignored Li Xiumei, silently walking to the pool and starting to pick and wash the vegetables with her head down.
Li Xiumei glanced at her: "Work faster today. Gu's has ordered breakfast for us tomorrow morning. It's a big order from one department, worth a lot of money. You can't let me miss it."
