Ye zhiqiao left the studio and found a hotel nearby to rest. Just as she took a bath and was about to have a good sleep, the doorbell suddenly rang.
She probably guessed who it was, so she changed into the clothes she had been wearing before she opened the door. Looking through the door mirror, it was indeed gu mohan.
When the door opened, gu mohan looked unhappy and muttered as he walked inside, "Why did you open the door so long? Is there someone hiding inside?"
It's always so unprofessional!
Ye zhiqiao secretly glared at him from behind and asked instead, "Who said you were allowed in?"
Gu mohan shuddered and hunched down on the sofa as if he were being chased away by her. He then defended himself, "My father's blood pressure has been controlled. Now that I have been released with my father's permission, you can't leave me alone."
"Oh." Ye zhiqiao blinked. In fact, she had no intention of making things difficult for him.
Gu mohan looked up and smacked his lips, "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to rest at home?"
Ye zhi coincidentally reached for a glass of water and handed it to him. She sat beside him and replied, "Come and see gu chengyan. See what she's done to jian mengqi's studio."
"Any surprises?" Gu mohan was intrigued.
Ye zhiqiao smiled faintly and said, "Very surprised."
"It seems that gu chengyan is quite capable..."
As he spoke, gu mohan yawned and ye zhiqiao tilted her head and asked, "So listless. Didn't you sleep last night?"
Gu mohan nodded and said in a resentful voice, "I was supposed to catch up on sleep this morning, but I spent all my time looking for you. I went to your house first, but there was no one, and then I rushed to the studio. Still, there was no one. I didn't dare to call you, because I was afraid that you would hide from me..."
Looking at his aggrieved expression, ye zhiqiao suddenly felt like laughing. She rubbed his head like a puppy and said, "So she bribed mengqi to inquire about my whereabouts?"
"I never thought that woman would tell you anything! We agreed not to divulge the secret." Gu mohan grunted unhappily, took ye zhiqiao's hand off his head, rubbed it against his palm, and then leaned forward to give him a kiss.
Ye zhiqiao smiled and patted him, "What are you doing?!"
Gu mohan narrowed his eyes, stretched out his long arm and held her in his arms. He rested his chin on her shoulder and leaned closer to her ear, "My girlfriend, what do you think I'm doing?"
"!" Ye zhiqiao was originally ticklish, and the skin on her ears was even more sensitive. As soon as he breathed, her body shook violently.
"Gu mohan!"
It was a warning, but his voice was soft as if he was acting coquettishly. Gu mohan's throat suddenly tightened and he aimed it at the skin and kissed it.
"Uh-" ye zhi coincidentally let out a low cry, her whole body tensed up.
As she slowly changed from shy rejection to genuine pandering, the phone on the table began to scream out out of place.
Gradually, her dazed eyes regained their clarity in an instant, and she reminded him in a low voice, "Gu mohan, I'm calling."
Gu mohan naturally heard the damn bell, sighed with great dissatisfaction, released his grip on ye zhiqiao, and leaned back against the sofa.
Ye zhiqiao's cheeks were already pink. She picked up the phone while cooling her cheeks with the back of her hand.
"Is it ye zhi... Miss ye?" The woman on the other side asked.
Ye zhiqiao frowned, "Xiaorui?"
Xiaorui agreed and continued, "Gu chengyan is looking for me again. She has discussed some things with me. Do you want to hear?"
Of course!
Ye zhiqiao looked at the time and then asked, "Where are you now? Can we meet?"
"Gu chengyan asked me to look for her in her studio. I just left the door and was in a coffee shop nearby."
Coffee shop? It was too close to the studio, so it would be troublesome to meet there if gu chengyan found out about it.
Ye zhiqiao suggested, "I'm at a nearby hotel. I'll send you the hotel name and room number later. Come to me."
Xiaorui did not hesitate and answered directly.
Ten minutes later, the doorbell rang again.
Xiaorui followed ye zhiqiao into the room. When she saw gu mohan there, she was obviously stiff. It seemed that gu mohan had left a big shadow on her last time.
Ye zhi coincidentally saw her shrink and patted her on the side to let her sit down.
Xiaorui nodded quickly and did not dare to look in gu Mohan's direction after sitting down. He said directly to ye zhiqiao, "Just now, gu chengyan suddenly called me to come here and told me that he wanted me to help her, but she didn't tell me the specific plan. She just said that she wanted to let you have an accident in the studio and let me wait for her orders at any time."
Gu mohan glanced at her and confirmed, "Apart from these, you don't know anything else?"
"I really don't know!" Xiaorui waved his hand again and again, fearing that he would not believe him, and added, "If she contacts me again, I will inform you immediately."
"Okay." Ye zhiqiao nodded and turned to gu Mohan, "I promised gu chengyan to meet her at the studio after work. Now it seems that she just wanted to do something at that time."
Gu mohan patted his thighs and stood up. He walked to the french window and looked at the office building not far away. He raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said in a deep voice, "It's time to close the net after waiting for her for so long. If something happens to you in her territory, she can't even explain it."
Ye zhiqiao came to him and agreed, "She probably won't do it in person. I'll try my best to find her then."
"But your safety..." Gu mohan turned to look at her worriedly, "I'll send two bodyguards to follow you. Just keep them away from gu chengyan."
Ye zhiqiao knew that this method would not work without thinking about it, "You also know that it is gu chengyan's territory. There are her spies everywhere. I will definitely arouse her suspicions if I bring people over, or I am the safest person in the past."
She raised her hand to adjust gu Mohan's collar and said softly, "I know you're worried about me, but gu chengyan is like a fish bone. If we don't pull it out one day, we won't be able to feel at ease. For the sake of the future, it's worth the risk."
Gu mohan's eyes darkened as he stared into the corner and promised fiercely, "When I catch her, I will make her pay the most painful price."
Ye zhi agreed softly and comforted him instead, "Don't worry, the studio is also a public place. She doesn't dare to be too conspicuous. Besides, I'm already on guard and won't be fooled so easily."
