He was the only good friend she knew in the world. She didn't want Li Rong to get hurt, but she also didn't want him to be implicated because of her.
Gu Sang thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a solution, so she had no choice but to put the matter of Master Gao aside for the time being and think of another way to resolve the issue first.
Thinking about this, Gu Sang felt much more at ease.
......
Five or six days passed in the blink of an eye.
During this time, Master Gao did not make any other moves, nor did anyone from the Gu family try to trip her up. Gu Sang lived a peaceful and comfortable life, but it also made her increasingly worried.
"Sigh, I wonder when His Highness the Crown Prince will be able to finish dealing with this matter?"
"Yes, I hope he can handle it quickly. I also want to go home as soon as possible. I wonder how the children at home are doing."
"I miss our daughter too."
"I also miss my daughter-in-law and granddaughter."
"Ah, I miss the chicken soup my daughter-in-law makes for me, it tastes so good."
......
These days, Gu Sang receives these messages every day, which makes her feel very depressed.
She hadn't contacted Li Rong these past few days, and Li Rong hadn't contacted her either. This made her somewhat worried.
So she decided to go out and look for Li Rong, but she had to be careful.
As soon as she stepped out, a dark figure darted over and covered her mouth and nose.
"Hehe, now Master Gao's concubine is settled... Master Gu's daughter is so pretty, if she didn't have to be Master Gao's concubine, tsk tsk..." the man in black said, his tone lewd, which made Gu Sang feel disgusted.
Gu Sang struggled for a moment, then pushed the man in black away forcefully and shouted, "Let me go! I'm telling you, if my father finds out, you'll be in big trouble. So let me go right now, hurry up!"
"Hehe, we've already let you go. See for yourself if you don't believe me!" the man in black said.
After hearing these words, Gu Sang looked down and saw that she had indeed been released. She breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around and walked forward, preparing to go home.
Gu Sang took a few steps forward, then suddenly felt her foot slip and fell forward. She opened her eyes wide in panic and tried to grab something to steady herself, but she couldn't grab anything.
"Bang......"
She fell heavily to the ground, wincing in pain as she pitifully rubbed her bottom.
"Ah...it hurts so much..." Gu Sang cried out in pain.
Just as she was wailing in pain, something suddenly stepped on her body, causing Gu Sang to feel excruciating pain.
She looked up and saw that it was a leather shoe stepping on her body.
"Who are you? Let me go!" Gu Sang shouted, then struggled desperately.
"Oh, you've got guts, not bad. You should be punished properly," the man in black said sinisterly.
Gu Sang dared not resist any longer. She was afraid that if she resisted again, she would anger this person, so she shut her mouth and said nothing.
"Please let me go! It's not my fault. I don't know why you arrested me. Please, I beg you, let me go. I really don't want to be caught by you," Gu Sang said with a mournful face.
Upon hearing Gu Sang's words, the man standing on Gu Sang's body chuckled and said, "Hmph, do you think you can escape like this? I'm warning you, you'd better follow us obediently, or you'll be in for a world of hurt. Don't test my patience."
"Okay, okay, I won't do anything reckless. Please let me go. Look what you've done to me. Please stop stepping on me and let me go. I beg you..." Gu Sang said pitifully.
As Gu Sang spoke, she began to cry, tears streaming down her face, making her look particularly pitiful.
When the man in black saw Gu Sang crying, he felt a pang of pity for a moment, but he quickly remembered the instructions of the wealthy man, so he hardened his heart and said, "Hmph, if you dare to run away, you're dead. I'll just make you a concubine. If you behave, the wealthy man might spare your life. If you don't, I'll have to teach you a lesson."
Upon hearing the man in black's words, Gu Sang cried even harder, sobbing incessantly.
"Waaah, please don't hit me! I don't want to be a concubine! My father won't agree! Waaah... I beg you, please let me go!" Gu Sang cried and pleaded.
"Hehe, I advise you not to waste your energy. Let me tell you, you have to go this time. You'd better listen to me and become a concubine. Once Master Gao gets tired of you, he'll let you leave." The man in black said with a grin, and then continued to press down on Gu Sang's body forcefully.
Gu Sang felt a lot of pain, but she couldn't make a sound, otherwise these people would definitely find out and beat her up.
"Let me go, let me go! Don't treat me like this, sob sob..." Gu Sang cried out.
Hearing Gu Sang cry, the man in black sneered and said, "You brat, you still dare to cry? I'm going to teach you a lesson. You better remember this: I was sent by Master Gao. So no matter how hard you cry, Master Gao won't hear your cries for help, and he won't save you. So, save your energy."
Hearing this, Gu Sang immediately shut up. She knew these people were right. If they really started arguing, it might anger them and they would beat her. What she feared most was being beaten, because these men in black were assassins. They didn't care about anything else. Once they made a move, they wouldn't show any mercy. She didn't want to experience that outcome.
Thinking of this, Gu Sang dared not cry anymore. Instead, she silently shed tears, letting the man in black trample on her without saying a word.
This silence seemed to further test the patience of the man in black.
The man in black snorted coldly and said, "Since you won't speak, don't blame me for being impolite. I'll show you what happens when you offend Master Gao."
After saying that, the man in black raised his leg and kicked Gu Sang.
Gu Sang was terrified and quickly moved to the side.
With a loud thud, the man in black kicked Gu Sang squarely in the shoulder, causing her to burst into tears from the pain.
"Ah..." Gu Sang cried out in pain, almost fainting from the pain.
Gu Sang felt as if her body no longer belonged to her; her whole body ached, and she felt like she could faint at any moment.
Seeing Gu Sang's appearance, the man in black sneered and said, "You think you can dodge? Let's see where you can hide now. I'll show you how to run..."
