Pei Luoyi's eyes were wide open in anger. Due to her extreme rage, her eyes were slightly red.
She had left in a hurry, and now that she was standing in front of the door and looking at the man bathed in sunlight, it was unknown if her chest was heaving from anger or from not being able to slow down.
The man standing by the window turned around at the sound of her voice. His cell phone was still pressed against his ear and his cool gaze pressed down on her.
Chi Yufeng chuckled softly on the other end of the phone. He probably heard the angry roar of the woman, "It seems like you have something to attend to. I'll hang up first."
With that, the call was heartlessly cut off.
Gong Yan put down his phone, looked away from the woman, turned around and sat back on the sofa, then picked up the book on the table and started reading.
Of all the actions that could anger a woman, ignoring them was the most important.
You're angry, but the other person is indifferent, not even giving you a chance to react.
Seeing this, Pei Luoyi was stupefied. Her breath caught in her throat, and she felt so uncomfortable that it seemed as if she was about to explode. "Gong Yan!"
"What's the matter?"
The man didn't even raise his head as he tapped the page with his long, clean knuckles.
"What do you mean?"
Pei Luoyi walked into the study quickly and placed her hands on the large wooden desk, making some noise.
Separated by a table, she continued angrily, "You clearly promised to let me go today, then why did you get your bodyguard to stop me? Could it be that a man like you would go back on your word? "
The man stopped flipping the pages, raised his head, and looked at her with an unchanging expression. "Mm, I forgot to tell them, they can let you go."
These light words were enough to ignite the fury in Pei Luoyi's heart.
"Would you please call them now and let them know? I'm in a hurry, thank you! "
She stood up and was about to leave when she suddenly thought of something and turned around. "Right, you have my bag, can you return it to me now?"
After being kidnapped here, her bag had disappeared. Although there weren't any valuables, her phone was still in her bag.
There was still a considerable distance between here and the city, and she didn't have the courage to walk it a second time.
Moreover, she didn't think that this man would be so kind as to let her have a ride.
Gong Yan's gaze returned to the book in his hands, looked at the words written on it and said blandly, "I will pass down the orders, you can leave now."
Tch, she said as if she really wanted to stay.
Of course, Pei Luoyi left immediately, and walked downstairs with light and brisk steps.
As they walked out of the villa, which was much bigger than the small house she lived in, familiar bodyguards were already waiting outside.
When he saw her come out, he placed the object in his hand in front of her.
Her bag.
She thanked him and headed in the direction of the manor's entrance.
As she walked, she took out her cell phone and switched it on. Luckily, she still had the battery. Pei Luoyi silently rejoiced. She didn't even have the time to smile as she looked at the screen and frowned.
It had only been two or three days since the computer was turned on, but the missed messages and calls had already filled up the screen.
With so many calls, she couldn't finish reading them all. She simply opened the unanswered phone and took a few glances.
There were many calls from colleagues with jobs. There were also many calls from friends, and there were also …
Looking at the two familiar words on the screen, she suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.
The person closest to her was also the person who had hurt her the most.
Pei Luoyi couldn't forget the sight of her parents' names on the secret marriage agreement. Her heart was filled with a complicated feeling, as well as pain and disbelief. She was even more disheartened.
She gripped the phone so tightly that her knuckles turned white. It took her a moment to recover her composure, then she moved the screen to the contact page and played a number.
The call was quickly connected. It was as if she couldn't believe it. Pei Luoyi even heard the deep breathing of the person on the other end of the line.
"Yes …" Yiyi? Is that you? "
A moment later, a woman's low voice came from the other end.
Hearing the bewildered tone of the woman, Pei Luoyi chuckled and lightly replied, "If it wasn't me, who do you think it was?"
"You scared me to death, do you know that? Where have you been these days? Do you know that I almost called the police! "
On the other end of the phone, the woman was so excited that her words were tinged with a hint of sobbing. Although she tried her best to suppress her emotions, Pei Luoyi could still hear it clearly.
She pursed her lips as her mood suddenly became indescribably depressed, "Xin Yi, I'm fine."
"You better be fine, or I'll cut you up. Pei Loyi, are you still a three year old child? I wonder if anyone else will worry about you? Do you know how scared I was that you hung up halfway through the call the other day? "
Hearing the angry and anxious voice of the woman, Pei Luoyi could only close her eyes and imagine the scene in front of her. She felt sad, but also touched.
"Alright, you want to cut me up? Let's talk after we meet. I'm in a bit of trouble right now, do you have time to pick me up?"
Half an hour later.
His line of sight was fixed at the end of the road. At a glance, he saw a car coming from afar.
The woman drove in a hurry, and when she stood up and straightened her clothes, the red car stopped in front of her.
The car door opened, and a woman in a white business suit stormed out of the driver's seat. Her elegant face had a trace of haggardness in it, but her eyes were exceptionally bright, especially when she saw Pei Luoyi.
"Luoyi, how are you?" Are you hurt? "
The woman shook Pei Luoyi's shoulder as she spun around in a circle.
Pei Luoyi spun around until she felt dizzy and hurriedly stopped the woman's actions, "Wait a moment, I'm fine. I haven't been hurt. Calm down first."
Just now on the phone, she didn't say much and just asked the woman to come and get her. She didn't know where the woman's brain went.
Was he being unlawfully imprisoned by a distribution group or had his legs broken by a trafficker?
"Are you alright?" Xin Yi was stunned for a moment before sizing up the woman in front of him. Indeed, not only did she look fine, but … And some of it was bright and beautiful?
Her entire body was filled with international brands that could be seen with a single glance. Her dress style was far worse than her usual standard.
"You … Bagged and raised? " Xin Yi hesitated for a moment before coming to this conclusion.
Pei Luoyi nearly vomited blood. She had underestimated the size of this woman's brain.
"Get in the car, I'll talk to you slowly."
Right now, the most important thing to do was to get out of here. Pei Luoyi walked straight to the front passenger seat, opened the door, and sat down. She then fastened her seatbelt.
After some effort, he answered with an "oh". Then, he seemed to have thought of something and squinted at the black iron gate not far away.
If she remembered correctly... This place seems to be...
