She was slightly glad that she did not go to the hospital to look for Gu Lingfeng. At the same time, she was worried that she would run into him tomorrow at work. With Gu Lingfeng's intelligence, he should be able to guess what happened. However, she had already promised Ye Qing that she would visit Gu Lingfeng tomorrow. Now that she wanted to take leave, she felt guilty.

As soon as he entered the company, he started avoiding Gu Lingfeng's presence from everywhere, carefully making his way all the way to the 28th floor. She met Ye Qing in the stairwell, and Ye Qing told Qin Ran that Gu Lingfeng had gone to a meeting at the branch office, and would only be back in the afternoon at the earliest.

Hearing this, Qin Ran let out a sigh of relief. He thought he might as well take advantage of this opportunity and leave early in the afternoon. That way, he could avoid meeting Gu Lingfeng.

After passing through the morning unscathed, Qin Ran finished his lunch and went to the bathroom to wash his hands. When he stepped out of the door, he saw Gu Lingfeng's angry expression.

"Speak, why did you drug me?" She did not dare to look into Gu Lingfeng's eyes. She was very afraid that Gu Lingfeng would come here to denounce her even though she did not regret doing so.

Because there was no reason, he could only be speechless. Qin Ran couldn't possibly say that Gu Shaolin had asked him to do this, could he? No matter what, he couldn't bring it up.

Seeing how Qin Ran was once again lowering his head and not saying a word, Gu Lingfeng was enraged. This woman didn't even bother to deny that he was being treated this way. Wasn't he clearly helping an outsider to do something to him?

Gu Lingfeng no longer pressed his hand against her, but unexpectedly hugged Qin Ran instead. Qin Ran didn't understand why Gu Lingfeng did this, but she could feel that Gu Lingfeng's cold aura made her feel afraid.

"I'll ask again, why did you drug me and cause me to miss out on the auction? Who told you to do that?" Gu Lingfeng's voice softly rang in her ears. Although he was calm and composed, at this moment, Qin Ran's heart was gripped by Gu Lingfeng's terrifying expression.

"I …" "I …" Qin Ran stuttered for a long time and tried to struggle free, but Gu Lingfeng's grip became tighter and tighter, as if he was about to crush her bones. Qin Ran, who could not stand the pain anymore, could not help but show a painful and malicious look.

However, at this moment, Gu Lingfeng did not care about the weight of his strength, nor did he care about Qin Ran's feelings. However, at this moment, Gu Lingfeng did not care about the weight of his strength, nor did he care about Qin Ran's feelings.

Anxiety appeared in Gu Lingfeng's bloodthirsty eyes, and the strength in his hands increased. This kind of pain was no less than one ninth of the ancient punishment, making Qin Ran unable to cry out in pain. His mind was also in chaos.

"Let me go, Gu Lingfeng. Are you crazy?" As Qin Ran finished speaking, his hands groped around on the sink behind him. At this critical moment, Qin Ran's eyebrows tightened as he suddenly felt a long and thin thing in his hand.

At this time, Qin Ran could only consider his current situation. He didn't care too much about it as he used all his strength to throw the item in his hand towards Gu Lingfeng.

A muffled cry was heard. It was as if Qin Ran had been relieved of his burden. He collapsed on the ground, and his shoulders soon started to feel better. He didn't feel as painful as before anymore.

Panting slightly, Qin Ran shifted his gaze to Gu Lingfeng, who was in extreme pain.

What she had received was a cleaning brush used to clean the toilet. The material was made of plastic and the strength used by him should not be small. After being hit like that, Gu Lingfeng would probably not feel well either.

The situation just now was extremely urgent, and Qin Ran didn't have enough time to react before he subconsciously did that kind of action to protect himself. The current Qin Ran didn't know what to do as he stood at the side, worried that Gu Lingfeng would explode again.

What she did not expect was that after her resistance, Gu Lingfeng had also calmed down. The deathly silence was restored, and Qin Ran felt a little uncomfortable. She wanted to leave, but Gu Lingfeng was standing at the door, and she didn't want to be caught by him again.

At this moment, Gu Lingfeng spoke up, "That piece of land is located in one of our city's famous chaotic neighborhoods. There are casinos, bars, and billiards rooms nearby. People passing by are everywhere." Qin Ran raised his head and started listening to Gu Lingfeng's explanation.

"If the Gu Clan had gotten their hands on that piece of land, it would've originally been to build a KTV. You should've found it strange as well. Why would the Gu Clan use money to buy that small piece of land?" The reason is simple. We just don't want the Fu Family to get their hands on it. "

The Fu Family is no longer the same as before. I received some information from the insiders that the Fu Family is planning to use that land to develop their video game city, but they are only using the name of the video game city to open illegal casinos. If they really get their hands on that land and get their business license, it'll be difficult for them to run things in the future.

Hearing this, Qin Ran's eyes widened, "You mean that the Fu Family intended to use that land to do bad things!?"

"Although I don't know why you stopped me from going to get that piece of land, judging from your current shocked expression, you must have been deceived by someone." Gu Lingfeng looked coldly at Qin Ran, "I'm not angry at you for drugging me, I'm just angry. Why don't you trust me?"

After saying this, the two of them fell silent at the same time. Qin Ran blamed herself in her heart, she had never thought that Gu Shao Ling would lie to her. She thought she was helping the Fu family, but she didn't expect that she was actually helping them now.

"I'm sorry." Qin Ran's voice was low as he apologized. If one were to listen carefully, one would be able to hear that his voice was choked with emotions, "I shouldn't have hidden it from you. I shouldn't have drugged you. I … I'm sorry!"

At this point, Qin Ran was still unwilling to say who was controlling her, and Gu Lingfeng also didn't want to force her. Gu Lingfeng didn't reply, but walked towards Qin Ran, who was mumbling to himself.

Facing this Qin Ran who acted like a little friend who had made a mistake in kindergarten, Gu Lingfeng had no choice but to fight her, but he couldn't. He couldn't bear to insult her, and he could tell that Qin Ran was also regretting his actions.

Gu Lingfeng patted Qin Ran on the shoulder, "Since what's happened has already happened, then don't cry here. If you really regret your actions, then come with me to find a way to make up for it. Being sad won't solve this problem."

Gu Lingfeng felt a little helpless. He didn't expect that after such a thing happened, he would still need to comfort her. After Qin Ran heard his words, he quickly raised his sleeves and wiped his cheeks. Since she kept his head down, Gu Lingfeng didn't see Qin Ran's tears.

"Alright, I will definitely do my best."

Actually, if he thought about it more carefully, once this matter was initiated, the consequences could not be underestimated. If the Fu Family were to do something about it, those who knew about it might still be able to continue playing in the video game city. However, if some people were to make a mistake, they would most likely harm the innocent.
