Chapter 42 Rapid Disclosure



She was shocked and quickly made arrangements.

While ordering people to investigate the matter, she also looked for suitable bodyguards for Gu Jingchun.

Although Lanxin knows some martial arts, she would be no match for an assassin.

Xiaoman had previously thought of arranging for Gu Jingchun to have a few people protect her safety, but Gu Jingchun refused.

This time, she wouldn't listen to Gu Jingchun no matter what.

Thinking of this, Xiaoman hurriedly made the arrangements.

Gu Jingchun didn't know why, but he always felt something was strange and uneasy.

I always feel like I've overlooked something important.

This unease intensified the following day when Shen Muqian's image was not found among all the portraits of officials that Xiaoman had brought.

To confirm her thoughts, she simply wrote a letter to Luo Ziqian.

The letter was quite long, mostly inquiring about Luo Ziqian's condition and asking if he had been frightened yesterday.

Finally, he casually inquired about Shen Muqian's identity.

She sent the letter but did not receive a reply for a long time.

Gu Jingchun then ordered someone to investigate and discovered that Luo Ziqian had actually been invited to a restaurant.

Gu Jingchun couldn't wait any longer, so he tidied himself up and went out to wait for Luo Ziqian at the restaurant entrance so he could ask him directly.

However, her carriage waited at the door for a long time, but no one came out.

The wind was howling outside, and it looked like it was about to rain.

Lanxin was worried that Gu Jingchun would catch a cold, so she suggested that Gu Jingchun wait inside the restaurant.

Seeing that the weather was really bad, Gu Jingchun got off the carriage and spent some money to sit down in the private room next to Luo Ziqian.

What Gu Jingchun didn't know was that all of her actions were being observed by one person.

Gu Jingchun sat in the private room and could vaguely hear Luo Ziqian's voice from next door.

He seemed to be drunk, and his voice was somewhat slurred.

Just then, a strong wind blew outside the window, dark clouds gathered, a downpour was imminent, and the sky darkened as if it were night.

Seeing this, Lanxin quickly lit a lamp.

Just then, with a "snap," the window in the room was blown shut by the wind.

The lights in the room went out instantly.

Lanxin was startled and quickly went to light the lamp again.

When the lights were turned on, Gu Jingchun was no longer in the room.

Gu Jingchun was kidnapped.

She was gagged in the darkness and before she could even react, she was taken away.

She didn't know where she was taken.

It was completely dark around her, and the person holding her was a man.

She could feel the man's heavy breathing and broad shoulders.

The man placed her on the bed.

In the darkness, she sensed the man sitting opposite her.

Outside the window, the wind seemed to have picked up, making the windowpanes rattle.

The fear of the unknown made Gu Jingchun increasingly nervous, which led her to speak first.

"Who are you?"

"what are you up to?"

Her only response was silence.

What do you want?

"If you want money, just let me go, and I can give you enough money."

"Let me tell you, I am the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Yong'an, and the fiancée of Minister Luo's legitimate son. If you dare to lay a finger on me, I guarantee I'll make you..."

"Oh……"

Finally, a cold snort came from the other side.

"The legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Yong'an's family?"

"Luo Ziqian's fiancée?"

That sound?

Gu Jingchun suddenly stopped.

Almost simultaneously, the wind outside the window stopped, and in its place came lightning and thunder.

A flash of lightning illuminated the entire room, including the face of the man standing before it.

Those were those chiseled features, so beautiful that Gu Jingchun couldn't take his eyes off them.

If it were before, Gu Jingchun would have known he was angry again upon seeing his expression.

Whenever this happens, she just needs to hug him and give him a few gentle kisses.

His brows would soon relax, and the chill on his body would dissipate in an instant.

Now, Gu Jingchun sat there blankly, feeling as if all the blood in his body was flowing backward, unable to utter a single word.

"Boom—"

A thunderclap exploded on the horizon.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of urgent rain began to sound outside the window.

The room instantly became more humid, and the temperature dropped.

Another bolt of lightning flashed, and Shen Muqian seemed to smile.

"Qingqing, tell me, who exactly are you?"

Shen Hechuan's voice and the thunder exploded in Gu Jingchun's ears at the same time.

"How long have you been planning this for your fiancée?"

After returning home yesterday, Shen Hechuan first ordered people to investigate the address of No. 38 Yongluo Lane.

Only after he learned that this place did he have to realize that Liu Qingqing was lying to him!

He remembered her tears, and her shocked expression.

I recalled Luo Ziqian's concerned gaze.

It was unbelievable that his Liu Qingqing was actually Gu Jingchun, who might be colluding with Daqi.

Gu Jingchun, seeing Shen Hechuan's gloomy face, finally... came to his senses.

She blinked, and her eyes instantly reddened.

"Mu Qian..."

Gu Jingchun threw herself into Shen Hechuan's arms again, sobbing.

"I... I didn't mean to lie to you."

Shen Hechuan's figure suddenly stopped.

His imposing aura gradually receded at this moment.

Although he still has many questions in his mind.

But feeling the warmth of the woman in his arms, he gradually forgot to think.
