Gu Nanjiao's head turned to one side after being hit, and her left cheek immediately swelled up: "Wang Fu, you have been bewitched and harmed me. I hope you will stop as soon as possible to avoid regret."
Given Wang Fu's personality, there's no way she would come up with such a despicable and wicked idea to harm her. She had seen Yang Meiqin at the entrance of this brothel alley before, so this terrible idea must have been hers. Now that Yang Meiqin is nowhere to be found, Wang Fu is being used as a target without even realizing it.
Wang Fu laughed loudly, seemingly insane: "I will never regret it, Gu Nanjiao! I have prepared a great gift for you today. I found the most disgusting and ugliest beggar in the whole county to have a night with you. When Young Master Bai finds out that you were slept with by this kind of person, let's see if he still likes you."
"Are you out of your mind? I'm already married, why do you always think Bai Luochen likes me, a married woman?"
Wang Fu's face twisted instantly: "So what if you're a married woman? You're always shamelessly seducing him. Enough nonsense. I've lit some aphrodisiac in the room today, so you'd better enjoy it later."
Gu Nanjiao has always been a flexible person who believes that it's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. But if anyone makes her life difficult, she will take them down with her even if it means dying herself.
In an instant, before Wang Fu could react, Gu Nanjiao darted forward and slammed her head into him.
Wang Fu stumbled and fell onto the bed frame, the hard window frame digging painfully into her back, while Gu Nanjiao fell heavily on top of her, the pain so intense she couldn't even scream.
Taking advantage of the situation, Gu Nanjiao rammed her head into Wang Fu's head again. The two heads collided, and blood instantly smeared all over her face, leaving her completely disheveled.
Wang Fu was so dizzy from the impact that his nose started bleeding profusely.
Before Wang Fu could react, Gu Nanjiao moved to the oil lamp and laboriously placed her hands on the flame, trying to use the fire to burn the hemp rope.
The scorching flames burned her skin, causing Gu Nanjiao to break out in a cold sweat. Her hands were in excruciating pain, but she had to endure it to break free and run away.
After untying the rope, Gu Nanjiao glanced at Wang Fu, who was still dazed from the impact, and smirked. Ignoring the pain in her hands, she stripped Wang Fu naked and made her lie on the bed, covering her with a blanket.
Didn't she say she lit some aphrodisiac in the room? Wang Fu was in the same room with her, so it was impossible for him not to get infected.
They'll reap what they sow.
Gu Nanjiao, who was planning to jump out of the window to escape, was dumbfounded. Everyone says that there is always a way out, but God is trying to cut off her path.
Outside the window was a lake, its waters so deep you couldn't see the bottom. If I jumped in, would I survive?
Suddenly, the door was kicked open, and Gu Nanjiao jumped down without thinking.
"Gu Nanjiao—"
As soon as she jumped, Gu Nanjiao regretted it. Why did she jump so fast? She had clearly heard Lu Yanzhao's heart-wrenching screams.
Was it just her imagination?
It shouldn't be, she thought she heard Lu Yanzhao's voice.
Without a second thought, Lu Yanzhao jumped down after him.
Zhang Hu and Er Gou, standing to the side, were dumbfounded. The lake water was swift, and anyone who couldn't swim would most likely drown if they jumped in.
At that moment, a soft moaning sound came from the bed. Zhang Ergou looked in the direction of the sound and exclaimed with delight, "Brother Hu, there's a fair-skinned woman here!"
"Let's go take a look!"
"Hey? Isn't this the woman who caused trouble at Meiwuzhai last time? I didn't expect her to be so promiscuous in private, stripping naked and striking seductive poses to seduce someone?"
As the eldest brother of the Cabbage Gang, Zhang Hu was naturally much more composed. Considering today's events, it's highly likely that Zhao Di's wife was behind the trouble.
For some reason, Wang Fu was now lying naked on the bed with a flushed face.
Zhang Ergou rubbed his hands, wanting to go over and tease her, but Zhang Hu stopped him: "Go and find out how this woman ended up here."
Zhang Ergou said with a dissatisfied look, "You won't let me touch the woman who's right here. Do you want to have her all to yourself?"
Zhang Hu slapped Zhang Ergou on the head: "Stop your damn nonsense! Can't you see this is trouble? Go investigate!"
Fifteen minutes later, Zhang Ergou said indignantly, "I beat up the madam before she told the truth. She said that this Miss Wang not only hired the most disgusting and ugly beggar to humiliate Sister Zhao, but she also paid for the person who kidnapped Sister Zhao."
“Brother Zhao has been kind to our Cabbage Gang, how can his wife suffer such humiliation?”
Zhang Hu said, "Then let's fight fire with fire."
Zhang Ergou slapped his thigh: "Brother Hu is thinking the same thing as me."
...
Gu Nanjiao thrashed about in the water, the icy, suffocating feeling making her dizzy, and her body kept sinking.
She deeply regretted not learning to swim; if only she had, it could have saved her life in a critical moment. Her instinct for survival drove her to struggle relentlessly, but the more she struggled, the more she sank.
Just when she thought she was about to die, a pair of strong hands caught her. Sensing someone approaching, she desperately clung to this lifeline. When she saw the man before her, Gu Nanjiao felt a warmth in her heart:
It's Lu Yanzhao, he's come to save her!
With her mind at ease, Gu Nanjiao naturally loosened her grip on Lu Yanzhao considerably.
Seeing that Gu Nanjiao seemed to have fallen into a coma, Lu Yanzhao struggled to drag her towards the lake shore.
Under the bridge, Lu Yanzhao frantically patted Gu Nanjiao's face: "Gu Nanjiao, Jiaojiao, wake up!"
"Wake up, okay!"
"Please don't let anything happen to you. As long as you're okay, I'll do whatever you say from now on."
Seeing that Gu Nanjiao didn't react, Lu Yanzhao pressed his chest a few more times. As time passed, Lu Yanzhao became somewhat incoherent:
"Are you punishing me? Gu Nanjiao, I've fallen in love with you and want to grow old with you, to be your one and only love for life. But you're leaving me. How can you be so heartless?"
"You must not die, Gu Nanjiao... Gu Nanjiao."
Gu Nanjiao slowly opened her eyes, feeling pain all over her body, especially a sharp pain in her nose that shot straight to her head, and her voice was hoarse like a broken bellows:
"Lu... Yan... Zhao!"
The night was slightly dark, and the man's eyes were slightly red at the corners; anyone who didn't know better would think he had been crying.
Gu Nanjiao opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, Lu Yanzhao pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly.
Lu Yanzhao exerted all his strength, holding Gu Nanjiao tightly in his arms. Gu Nanjiao felt as if her ribs were about to break, and she couldn't help but cough a few times before Lu Yanzhao finally released her.
Gu Nanjiao felt sweet and touched. Just now, she heard that arrogant guy confess to her, saying that he liked her and wanted to grow old with her, to be together forever. She reached out and hugged Lu Yanzhao back: "I'm fine, don't worry."
She paused for a moment and then said, "Lu Yanzhao, I just heard you say that you like me and want to grow old with me. Is that true?"
Lu Yanzhao's heart skipped a beat, his ears turned red instantly, and he replied with a succinct "Mm".
One "hmm" is enough!
Gu Nanjiao was overjoyed and, forgetting her dizzy head, gave Lu Yanzhao a quick kiss on the cheek.
This kiss had a jolt; Lu Yanzhao was startled and suddenly turned Gu Nanjiao's face, pressing his thin lips fiercely against hers.
The touch of warm lips and tongue suddenly turned fiery and scalding, sending a shiver down Gu Nanjiao's spine and making her cheeks burn.
Seemingly considering Gu Nanjiao's discomfort, Lu Yanzhao released her after kissing her for only a short time.
His gaze fell on Gu Nanjiao's swollen cheek, where five finger marks were clearly visible. A chill appeared in Lu Yanzhao's eyes: "Who hit you?"
“Wang Fu, she and Yang Meiqin kidnapped me together, and they wanted to sell me into a brothel to serve the most disgusting and ugly beggars.” Gu Nanjiao finished speaking and raised her hand that was burned by the oil lamp: “In order to escape, I knocked her unconscious, and then used the flame of the oil lamp to burn the reins.”
The blisters on her arm had burst, leaving a red and swollen patch. Gu Nanjiao gasped in pain.
Lu Yanzhao felt his blood surge instantly, his face darkening frighteningly, and his deep eyes turning bloodshot. He wished he could kill the two of them immediately.
Although it was summer, the lake water was still chilly. Gu Nanjiao couldn't help but sneeze. Fearing she would catch a cold, Lu Yanzhao then suppressed his fierce aura.
"Let's go back first! Don't catch a cold!" Considering that Gu Nanjiao was not feeling well, Lu Yanzhao picked her up in his arms without saying a word.
Holding Gu Nanjiao in his arms, the pain in her body seemed to lessen considerably. Her heart was filled with sweetness, as if she had drunk a bellyful of honey, and her throat was practically overflowing with sweetness.
Now that Lu Yanzhao had confessed his feelings to her, she no longer held back and took the opportunity to wrap her arms around his neck and rest her head against him.
...
Wang Fu felt unbearably hot all over. Suddenly, a pair of large hands reached out to him, and a stench filled his eyes. Wang Fu tried to push the person away, but he was too weak. Although the stench was disgusting, it was irresistible that he wanted to get closer.
Under the influence of the spices, Wang Fu could no longer resist reaching out and hooking his arm around the other person's neck.
