CH 31

After Gu Chenyue’s wound was treated, he still needed to stay in the hospital for a few more days, but he stubbornly insisted on being discharged.

Despite Hu Tiankan’s attempts to persuade him, he didn’t listen to a word.

Lin Zhiwen also joined the persuasion team, “Gu Chenyue, can’t you just listen to the doctor? If you go out like this, do you want to die outside?”

Hu Tiankan rubbed his nose, “Uh, isn’t that a bit too exaggerated? It’s not that easy for Yueyue to die.”

Gu Chenyue glanced at Lin Zhiwen and then looked at Wan Tong, who was walking a few steps behind Lin Zhiwen with lowered eyes.

She was probably encountering such a situation for the first time, and her face was still very pale, with a sense of panic and unease.

He felt a tightness in his chest and clenched his fists, which were already scraped up. His voice became cold and threatening, “Lin Zhiwen, if you know what’s good for you, you and your friend should disappear from my sight.”

“I will, but you need to stay in the hospital,” Lin Zhiwen didn’t back down, staring straight into his eyes.

Watching the “silent communication” between the two, Wan Tong quickly stepped forward and without thinking blurted out, “Gu Chenyue, please listen and stay in the hospital.”

She thought her voice sounded confident and imposing, but in reality, it was soft and weak, barely audible.

Hu Tiankan shook his head. He knew how stubborn Yueyue could be. No matter how much these two girls tried to persuade him, if he didn’t want to stay in the hospital, then he wouldn’t.

“Gu Chenyue, you…” Lin Zhiwen wanted to continue saying something, but Gu Chenyue turned around and walked away down the hallway.

“Where are you going?” Hu Tiankan followed after him in confusion.

“To the hospital room,” Gu Chenyue muttered softly.

Hu Tiankan : “???” Did Yueyue take the wrong medication?

Lin Zhiwen watched the two of them walk away in satisfaction. However, she had not heard the system’s prompt, so she couldn’t help but ask, [045, why hasn’t Gu Chenyue’s favorability rating increased?]

[The system is also unclear.] 045 responded.

At this point, Wan Tong was also confused. The thoughts of this boss were really hard to guess. He changed his mind every second, and she was having a hard time keeping up.

[Shishi, it seems like Gu Chenyue is quite special to me. Did he agree to stay in the hospital because of what I said earlier?] Wan Tong spoke somewhat narcissistically.

Shishi: [Tongtong, Shishi doesn’t understand.]

Wan Tong: “…” Another boss that even the system couldn’t understand.

For the next two days, Lin Zhiwen would rush to the hospital right after class, sometimes even bringing various stews with her.

However, judging from the complaining tone she had when she came back, it seemed that she was being ignored.

Having been ignored for so long, Lin Zhiwen’s patience had worn thin, but she still went to the hospital every day in order to complete her strategy mission.

However, she didn’t bring along Wan Tong.

Wan Tong didn’t mind, though. The original owner’s parents were both university professors and usually lived on campus for the sake of teaching convenience. It seemed that they were going to give a lecture this weekend, so they hadn’t come back.

The original owner did not do well in her studies, and her parents were very disappointed in her. Even when they ate together, they would talk about their excellent students, but they didn’t even bother to criticize the original owner.

Early on Saturday morning, Wan Tong went to the library, which was the original owner’s habit.

The original owner was a bookworm who liked all kinds of books and often spent the whole day reading.

Lin Zhiwen had just come out of the hospital, angered by Gu Chenyue, but soon she hurried back.

As soon as she entered the ward, she opened her mouth with red eyes, “Gu Chenyue, you can’t drive me away. Someone is blocking me outside!”

Gu Chenyue and Hu Tiankan, who were talking, glanced at each other and their expressions became slightly serious. “What’s going on?” Gu Chenyue asked.

“I just came out of the hospital and someone blocked me, saying they wanted to take me away. Fortunately, I ran fast,” Lin Zhiwen said, thanks to the system reminding her.

Lin Zhiwen paused and spoke again, “They seem to be the people who caused trouble at the nightclub that night.”

Hu Tiankan looked at Gu Chenyue and guessed, “You beat them up badly that night. Maybe they saw her coming to see you at the hospital and wanted to retaliate.”

Almost the next second, Gu Chenyue got up from the hospital bed. “Tiankan, take her back,” he said.

“But where are you going??” Hu Tiankan looked at him, a little confused.

Gu Chenyue didn’t answer and just changed his clothes and walked out.

Lin Zhiwen looked at his serious and cold face and was a little puzzled. Who was he really worried about?

Wan Tong stayed in the library until the afternoon. She only ate a piece of bread for lunch and now she was very hungry.

She went to the pastry shop that the original owner liked the most. While waiting in line to pay, she felt like someone was staring at her, but when she turned around, she didn’t see anything unusual.

When Wan Tong came out of the subway station, the sky had already darkened. She walked leisurely towards the residential area. The shops along the way were all bustling, but as she approached the residential area, there were fewer pedestrians around her. The street lights were dim, and only her shadow was stretched out long.

At this moment, she suddenly saw a few more shadows next to her own shadow, as if they were following her closely. She panicked and quickened her pace, turning into another alley.

She ran very fast, and when she looked back, there was no one behind her.

However, she faintly heard some strange noises, like someone shouting, and it sounded painful.

In a narrow alley, Gu Chenyue dragged one person and threw them in, then viciously kicked another person.

However, due to the violent movement, a hint of red had seeped through his clothes at his waist, and large drops of sweat had formed on his forehead.

“Ah!” A sharp scream rang out.

Gu Chenyue abruptly turned around and saw the figure of the girl looking at him in horror while covering her mouth.

At this moment, all his movements seemed to be restrained, and he stopped instantly. His black pupils widened slightly, completely unexpected that she would witness this scene.

He withdrew his fist and turned towards Wan Tong.

As she took a step back, she tripped on something and fell to the ground.

Gu Chenyue’s footsteps froze in place, looking down at her from above for a moment before walking towards her.

“Get up,” he coldly threw two words out of his mouth.

Biting her lip, Wan Tong stared at the two long legs in front of her, feeling both scared and embarrassed. “I twisted my ankle.”

Her voice still contained an uncontrollable tremble.

Gu Chenyue tightly pursed his lips and crouched down, grabbing her ankle with his palm.

“Hisss…” Wan Tong gasped.

Wan Tong was wearing a knee-length pleated skirt, and because she was sitting on the ground, the skirt had slipped up her thighs, revealing a piece of white skin that was particularly eye-catching under the light.

At this moment, Gu Chenyue suddenly shouted at the two trembling figures behind him, “Why aren’t you gone?”

He could clearly feel Wan Tong’s ankle quivering under his palm, and his face darkened even more.

The two people didn’t even have time to moan and quickly supported each other and left.

In the alley, only the staring men and women were left.

“I can still walk,” said Wan Tong, struggling a bit and gently moving her ankle, but it hurt so much that she frowned.

Gu Chenyue stared at her with his black eyes, released her ankle, and without giving her any face, asked her directly, “How do you plan to walk?”

Wan Tong reached out to support the wall but found it difficult to get up from the ground with one leg. Moving her right foot even a little caused intense pain.

Seeing her disheveled and fragile state, Gu Chenyue frowned slightly and suddenly slid his arm under her knee, lifting her up.

However, it was obvious that he had never carried someone like this before, and the posture made Wan Tong feel uncomfortable, as if she was being held up in front of him.

But since he was doing it out of kindness, she couldn’t really say anything.

In addition, the deep-seated fear in the original owner’s bones was also affecting her at this moment, so she just kept her head down and nervously bit her lip.

At this moment, her phone in her bag suddenly vibrated, and she reached in to take it out and held it up to her ear.

“Tongtong, where are you? Are you alone?” Lin Zhiwen’s voice came over the phone.

The surroundings were quiet at this time, and since Gu Chenyue was still so close to her, he could naturally hear her voice clearly.

However, Wan Tong didn’t understand why Lin Zhiwen was calling her now and asking her this.

“I’m almost home…” Wan Tong replied, lifting her gaze to glance at Gu Chenyue’s chin before continuing, “I’m not alone.”

“Ah, then who are you with? Your parents?”

“……Wenwen, what’s wrong with you?” Wan Tong changed the topic.

Could it be that Lin Zhiwen was trying to probe something about Gu Chenyue?

“No, I just wanted to ask, nothing happened to you today, right? I was blocked at the hospital entrance, I don’t know how you’re doing there?”

The tone of probing was even more obvious this time.

Wan Tong remained calm, and when she lifted her gaze, she met the deep, dark eyes of Gu Chenyue for a second. Then she lowered her head again and said, “I’m fine, I’m almost home.”

So… the reason why Gu Chenyue suddenly appeared here was because he was worried about her.

“Okay, be careful.” Lin Zhiwen quickly hung up the phone.

Wan Tong put away her phone and fell silent again.

As Gu Chenyue carried her around the corner, he suddenly saw a pastry bag on a rattan chair by the road, and he stopped his footsteps.

Wan Tong had just put the pastry there and was thinking about how to bring it up. Gu Chenyue suddenly walked over, bent down, and lowered the person in his arms.

As soon as she reached out her hand, she hooked the paper bag onto her finger.

However, due to Gu Chenyue’s height, in order for her to be able to reach the paper bag, he had to support her with his arms up and down.

Looking at his waist with a tilted head, Wan Tong could see that the deep gray T-shirt had been dyed red.

“Put me down,” she muttered.

Gu Chenyue just paused for a moment and didn’t stop his steps.

“Put me down.” She repeated the sentence.

Gu Chenyue finally pursed his lips and stopped, releasing her as she asked.

Wan Tong tried to move her right foot and found that although it still hurt a little, it was much better than before.

“Thank you,” she said to Gu Chenyue.

Gu Chenyue didn’t say anything, but when he turned around, he felt his coat sleeve being grabbed by a hand.

He turned around and sure enough, a small, white hand was clutching his coat sleeve. The owner of the hand was looking at him nervously and asked in a trembling voice, “Will you go back to the hospital? Your wound is split open.”

Even an 18-year-old boy, no matter how mature he was, couldn’t hide his feelings at this moment.

Emotions surged in his eyes, and the fierce and cold expression he had just pretended to have gradually crumbled in the face of her inquiry.

“Go back.” A word overflowed from his pink, thin lips.

Wan Tong got her answer and withdrew her hand, saying, “Okay.”

She struggled to move forward, but before she could take a few steps, she suddenly felt a pair of arms around her waist and knees, and her whole body was lifted up in the air!

Panicked, she looked up and saw Gu Chenyue’s elegant jawline right in front of her.

“Gu Chenyue…”

Gu Chenyue didn’t look at her, but he felt that the name “Gu Chenyue” lingered in his ears, tantalizing his surging emotions.

Never before had he felt his own name so pleasant.

Wan Tong lived on the eighth floor, and Gu Chenyue carried her out of the elevator and went straight to her doorstep.

Wan Tong was a little surprised. How did he know her address so well?

She reached out to press the doorbell, but halfway through, Gu Chenyue suddenly spoke up. “Don’t enter the password in front of me.”

“… ” Wan Tong was scared and pulled her hand back.

Gu Chenyue frowned and spoke coldly, “Don’t you have any sense of security?”

Wan Tong said dumbly, “I….” Isn’t it because you are the boss?

Gu Chenyue turned his head away, and Wan Tong silently entered her password.

As soon as the door opened, the light in the living room poured out and Mother Zheng’s voice came over, “Is Tong Tong back?”

Wen Tong saw Mother Zheng walking out of the room, and was stunned. Gu Chenyue, who was holding her, was also stiff.

Mother Zheng was caught off guard to see a tall and handsome young man intimately hugging her daughter, and was stunned for several seconds before walking out with a cold face.

Before she could speak, Wan Tong quickly reacted and looked at her, “Mom, I twisted my ankle.”

Mother Zheng’s urge to question was immediately stuck in her throat.

She looked at Wan Tong’s right ankle, and indeed, it was already swollen.

Wan Tong was tense and stiff, the original owner’s parents strictly forbid their children from dating early, and if they were to discover any ambiguity between her and Gu Chenyue, they would definitely make her transfer to another school.

But how could she transfer schools now?

Gu Chenyue put Wan Tong down. He was used to being expressionless and had a mature air that was not typical of his age. He now had a stiff face and his black eyes were deep and inscrutable. Therefore, after noticing that he seemed to have no extra emotions towards her daughter, Mother Zheng also felt relieved.

Moreover, this child looks quite outstanding and appears to have a good upbringing. The more Mother Zheng looks at him, the more pleasing he seems.

So, upon hearing that he had rescued Wan Tong from the gangsters, Mother Zheng expressed her gratitude.

Wan Tong breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Gu Chenyue enter the elevator.

Turning to Mother Zheng, she asked, “Mom, why are you back?”

“The lecture’s time has temporarily changed. Did you go to the library today?”

“Yeah.”

“Don’t always look at this and that. If you really want to do well for yourself, you should work harder when studying…” Mother Zheng began a long lecture, but Wan Tong just listened as she always did.

Under the big tree outside the apartment building, Gu Chenyue stood for a long time, gazing at his empty hands, lost in thought.

When Hu Tiankan drove up in his car, Gu Chenyue finally made a move.

Hu Tiankan looked at his friend’s red-stained clothes and clicked his tongue. “Bro, what happened to you? Don’t really lose your life over this.”

Gu Chenyue sat in the back seat, leaning his head back and holding his hand over the wound on his waist.

“Go to the hospital,” he said, three words thrown out.

“Oh, look at you being so responsible this time,” Hu Tiankan teased.

He stepped on the gas and glanced at the boy in the rearview mirror. “So you like the little white rabbit after all. But I also think the little flower is too noisy. She’s not your type.”

Hearing his words, Gu Chenyue finally glanced at him. “Just drive your car.”

“Okay, okay, I won’t say anything,” Hu Tiankan said.

The next day, Wan Tong rested at home for half a day and iced her ankle. She could walk normally again.

In the afternoon, Lin Zhiwen suddenly called Wan Tong and invited her out.

It turned out that Gu Chenyue had checked out of the hospital early and went back to the nightclub. Lin Zhiwen wanted to go with her to find him and persuade him to go back to the hospital.

Wan Tong couldn’t help but think that this Raider was getting involved in too many things.

Gu Chenyue was not a reckless person. If he dared to check out of the hospital, he wouldn’t let himself get into trouble. Lin Zhiwen constantly looking for him was only adding trouble for him!

However, Wan Tong also admired Lin Zhiwen. At least she could find a reason to approach him.

When Wan Tong got close to Gu Chenyue, her body instinctively produced fear.

She still needed some time to gradually adapt to this body.

Anyway, Wan Tong still told Mother Zheng about going out and then rushed to the nightclub with Lin Zhiwen.

In the lobby bar, Lin Zhiwen found Gu Chenyue and rushed forward without any hesitation.

From afar, Wan Tong hid in the corner, but could still hear the weighty and earnest persuasion of Lin Zhiwen’s voice.

Wan Tong’s gaze fell on Gu Chenyue’s face from a distance, seeing impatience in his expression, while his companions on the side watched the show with relish.

“You came alone?” Gu Chenyue swept his gaze over behind Lin Zhiwen.

“No, I came with Tongtong.” Lin Zhiwen heard what seemed to be his concerned question and pointed her finger to another corner.

Sure enough, a girl in a white T-shirt and denim skirt was holding a water cup, nervously staring at this side.

Upon meeting the gloomy gaze of Gu Chenyue, she quickly lowered her head and sipped on her water glass in small sips.

Don’t look at me, I didn’t come here to pester you on purpose! thought Wan Tong.

[Gu Chenyue’s Favorability -10, current value is 10.] Suddenly, Lin Zhiwen heard the prompt sound of 045.

She was stunned for a moment, seeming a bit confused, but soon she found a reason for herself. Gu Chenyue must be worried about her since they had an accident last time.

Meanwhile, unexpectedly, Wan Tong heard Shishi’s and was shocked, choking on her water and coughing incessantly. Soon, her little face turned red from coughing.

She was too excited that Lin Zhiwen finally lost his favorability of her.

She lowered her head and wiped the water stains on her light-colored denim skirt with a tissue. She didn’t put on makeup or deliberately dressed up today, but she still came anyway.

Lin Zhiwen saw that Gu Chenyue kept looking in the direction of Wan Tong, her expression changed, and then she walked back to Wan Tong and pulled her away with her.

But not long after they left, Gu Chenyue caught up with them in three or two steps, hugged Wan Tong’s waist with his long arms, and took her away from Lin Zhiwen like holding a doll.

“F*ck!”

Hu Tiankan, who saw this scene, was excited and jumped up!

Yueyue is amazing!
