The waiter carefully placed the stew pot in front of her. The moment she reached out and lifted the lid, she suddenly saw a pair of familiar eyes through the waiter's thick bangs.
The moment she saw those eyes clearly, her heart skipped a beat, and she saw the waiter suddenly pick up the stew pot and splash it at her.
Gu Baiwei was startled and stood frozen in shock, unable to react.
Fortunately, Shen Yanqing reacted quickly, kicking the table. The waitress screamed and was knocked to the ground by the table. The scalding hot soup in the stew pot was poured all over her arm, and the area that was scalded instantly turned red.
The waitress screamed and clutched her scalded arm, her eyes filled with resentment as she glared at Gu Baiwei.
"Chen Yao?"
Gu Baiwei was pulled into Shen Yanqing's arms and protected. Only then did she see the half of the waitress's face that was exposed outside the mask. Who else could it be but Shen Yao?
It had been a while since she last saw her. She had lost weight and her skin had darkened several shades. If it weren't for those familiar, sinister eyes looking at her, she almost wouldn't have recognized her.
"You bitch! I'm going to kill you!"
Ignoring the pain in her arm, Shen Yao struggled to get up from the ground, picked up the broken pieces of the plate, and frantically threw them at Gu Baiwei, seemingly oblivious to the cuts on her fingers.
Shen Yanqing quickly shielded her and moved her to a safe location.
"I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you... Hahaha... Waaaaah..."
As Shen Yao threw things, she cried and laughed at the same time, looking completely crazy and mentally unstable.
Just then, the door was kicked open, and Big Head rushed in with a sullen face.
Seeing Shen Yao on the ground, he paused for a moment, then looked at Shen Yanqing: "Boss, Miss Shen, this..."
"Take the person out and contact my second uncle."
Shen Yanqing protected Gu Baiwei and spoke without any expression.
Da Tou glanced at Shen Yao, who was crying and making a fuss on the ground, and felt a bit overwhelmed.
After mentally preparing himself for a long time, he gritted his teeth and went over to try to drag the person up from the ground. Who knew that as soon as his hand touched Shen Yao, she immediately went crazy and bit Da Tou's hand hard.
Big Head yelled and finally managed to shake her off, only to have half a plate covered in soup smashed into his forehead.
The sharp porcelain shards cut the skin, and blood immediately flowed down.
Seeing that he was bleeding, Shen Yao clapped her hands happily: "You bitch, I'll smash you to death, smash you to death!"
After a while, as if remembering something, she crawled to Shen Yanqing's feet with a look of terror, hugged his leg, and pleaded, "Brother Yanqing, I was wrong, I was wrong, please don't do this to me."
Shen Yanqing pulled her leg back in disgust and ordered Da Tou, "Drag her out."
Da Tou didn't dare to delay. He walked over, grabbed Shen Yao's arms, and lifted her up from the ground.
"Don't touch me, ahhh..."
Shen Yao twisted and turned, screaming hysterically.
His thick bangs were lifted slightly, revealing a hideous scar on his forehead, the skin and flesh torn open, a shocking sight.
What's wrong with her?
Gu Baiwei couldn't help but speak up.
The once high-and-mighty heiress is now acting like a completely irrational madwoman.
Upon hearing her voice, Shen Yao suddenly looked up, her eyes glaring fiercely at her, almost bulging out of their sockets.
Her eyelids were dark and bluish, and her whites were covered with hideous red blood vessels. At that moment, she looked like a demon crawling out of hell, extremely ferocious.
"I'm going to kill you, you bitch! You bitch!"
She waved her arms, desperately trying to grab Gu Baiwei, but Da Tou held her down tightly, making it impossible for her to move.
Big Head sighed and chopped Shen Yao on the back of the head with a chop, causing her to immediately collapse.
He reached out and caught the person, then hoisted him onto his shoulder and walked away.
The room fell silent again, the floor a mess of broken plates and spilled food.
Soon a waiter knocked on the door and came in to replace the food on the table.
"Chen Yao, what's wrong with her?"
Sitting back down at the table, Gu Baiwei couldn't help but ask again.
This time, Shen Yanqing gave her a simple explanation.
Shen Yao had repeatedly hurt Gu Baiwei, so in a fit of anger, Shen Yanqing packed her up and sent her to Africa.
When Shen Xiangsong learned that his daughter had been sent to such a remote place, he fell seriously ill.
Taking advantage of his illness, Shen Yanqing removed all of Shen Xiangsong's trusted confidants from the Shen family and, together with the board of directors, used his health as a pretext to completely kick Shen Xiangsong out of the Shen family.
After Shen Yao was brought back, she came to him to beg for mercy, but he refused her without hesitation. Later, for some reason, she became somewhat mentally unstable.
Having no other option, Shen Xiangsong sent her to a mental hospital, but she must have somehow managed to escape this time.
Upon hearing this, Gu Baiwei couldn't help but ask, "Which mental hospital?"
"We've been to Sunshine Mental Hospital before."
Gu Baiwei frowned. In the same place as Qi Yu? Was it a coincidence?
"Weiwei, eat quickly, the food is getting cold."
Seeing her like this, Shen Yanqing knew what he was thinking.
The thought of Qi Yu's madman's feelings for her made him feel uneasy.
Gu Baiwei nodded, no longer dwelling on the issue, and took a small sip of the soup in front of her.
She had just eaten and wasn't very hungry; she was mainly there to keep Shen Yanqing company while she ate.
Just as I finished taking a sip, the lights in the room suddenly went out with a snap.
She instinctively thought something was wrong and panicked, calling out to Shen Yanqing.
He called out twice, but no one answered.
Just as I was fumbling for my phone to take a picture, a tiny candlelight suddenly appeared around me.
Warm yellow flames lit up one by one, forming a heart shape.
Gu Baiwei then noticed that red rose petals were falling continuously from above her head.
In the dim, warm light, Shen Yanqing knelt on one knee, holding a bouquet of red roses in his left hand: "Weiwei, marry me."
The candlelight flickered, illuminating his handsome face. His deep eyes gazed at her intently and affectionately, his expression one of earnestness and devotion she had never seen before.
Amidst a shower of petals, he opened the red velvet box in his right hand, revealing an exquisite diamond ring.
The simple yet elegant design gleamed with a warm glow in the firelight.
For a moment, the surroundings seemed to fall into complete silence, so quiet that she could only hear her own heartbeat.
She didn't say yes when I proposed last time, but this time...
She paused for a moment, then reached out to him: "Help me try it on."
Shen Yanqing's tense heart relaxed at this moment, and he couldn't wait to pick up the ring and put it on her fair finger.
"Give me a kiss, give me a kiss..."
The cheers came from behind, and Gu Baiwei then realized that there was a row of black-clad bodyguards standing behind her, scattering flower petals.
The romantic atmosphere suddenly became somewhat comical because of this group of burly men scattering flowers with serious faces.
Gu Baiwei couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Shen Yanqing got up and embraced her. Just as he was about to kiss her, Gu Baiwei's phone on the table suddenly started beeping incessantly.
