After the scumbag Bai Yueguang returned to China, the rich daughter stopped pretending

Gu Zechuan was thrown out by the bodyguard.

Meng Yaqin and Chen Wan were waiting outside.

Meng Yaqin was almost crying. "Son, what should we do now? Have we offended the Su family? What about the investment?"

Chen Wan was also terrified. "The Su family has such a strong background, will they retaliate against us?"

Gu Zechuan turned a deaf ear.

He was like a puppet, with no soul, walking mechanically, his face dull and lifeless.

……

After the banquet, Jiang Shixu sent Chutang back to the apartment.

"What happened today..." Chu Tang stood downstairs and spoke hesitantly.

Jiang Shixu stood in front of Chutang and reached out to tuck a strand of her hair behind her ear. His voice was low and filled with obvious sadness, "He said today that if you had told him your identity earlier, you might have been married now and would be very happy. I admit that I was scared at that moment. If you..."

"There are no ifs." Chu Tang interrupted him and looked up at Jiang Shixu's deep eyes. "Brother Shixu, don't worry about things that haven't happened."

"Besides..." The girl looked unusually serious, "I actually haven't thought about marrying Gu Zechuan."

Jiang Shixu's eyes lit up, "Really?"

Chu Tang smiled and nodded, "Yeah."

The night wind blew, and Chu Tang shivered in the cold, but her eyes were sparkling. "Before, I never thought about marrying Gu Zechuan, but now, I am looking forward to our engagement ceremony."

Jiang Shixu took off his coat and put it on Chutang, then hugged her in his arms, "I'm looking forward to it too."

……

Gu Zechuan left the manor and drove away alone, and his whereabouts are unknown.

Chen Wan drove Meng Yaqin back to the hotel.

Underground Parking Lot.

As soon as the two got off the car, they were knocked unconscious and put in a sack.

When I woke up again, I was in a dark and noisy box.

Chen Wan and Meng Yaqin were forced to lie on the glass wine table.

Sitting on the sofa directly opposite was a man with his legs crossed and covered in tattoos.

The man smiled mischievously, "I'm in a good mood today, would you like to have a few drinks with me?"

Meng Yaqin prided herself on being a wealthy wife and had never suffered such a punishment before, so she immediately started cursing at the tattooed man.

The tattooed man smiled and raised his chin towards the man in black.

The man in black walked up, grabbed Meng Yaqin and slapped her twice in the face.

Meng Yaqin was stunned by the slap.

Both sides of my face were burning with pain.

She covered her face and glared at the tattooed man, "Who are you? Why did you bring me here?"

The tattooed man scratched his ear and said, "Tsk, why are you talking so much, old woman? If you keep talking, I'll cut off your tongue."

As he spoke, the man took out a Swiss Army knife and played with it in his hand.

Meng Yaqin was so frightened that her legs went weak and she shut her mouth tightly, not daring to make any more noise.

Chen Wan was still pressed on the table.

The tattooed man picked up a glass of wine and poured it towards Chen Wan. "Drink all the wine on this table today and I'll let you go."

Meng Yaqin exclaimed: "I can't drink!"

The tattooed man snorted coldly and ordered his men to pour wine.

Meng Yaqin and Chen Wan were forcibly held down and forced to drink a lot of alcohol. No matter how they struggled, they could not break free.

Later, the whole table of wine was almost poured into their stomachs, and their abdomens were bulging.

The tattooed man held a Swiss Army knife, and the cold blade touched Chen Wan's face. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Be careful when you go out. Don't offend people you shouldn't offend in the future."

Chen Wan's lips trembled with fear, he was so scared that he couldn't move, and his face was pale.

"Do you understand?" The tattooed man suddenly raised his voice, scaring Chen Wan and Meng Yaqin so much that they shuddered.

With their lives in someone else's hands, Meng Yaqin and Chen Wan dared not disobey and could only nod repeatedly, "I understand."

……

three days later.

"Knock, knock, knock--" Chen Wan stood at the door of the hotel suite and knocked a few times.

"Zechuan, are you in there?"

no respond.

Chen Wan frowned and took out her cell phone to make a call.

After dialing, the phone rang for a long time but no one answered until it hung up automatically.

Ever since returning from Su Yu that day, Gu Zechuan has lost contact with her.

He didn't reply to her messages, didn't answer her calls, and even when she came to the hotel, he wouldn't open the door.

She learned from the front desk that Gu Zechuan had not checked out.

"Bang bang bang—" She knocked on the door hard.

"Gu Zechuan, open the door! If you don't open the door today, I will keep knocking until you open it!"

After Chen Wan knocked at the door for ten minutes, the door finally opened.

The strong smell of cigarettes and alcohol hit her in the face, making her retching physically.

"Why does it smell so strong?" Chen Wan pinched her nose, her face full of disgust.

Looking at Gu Zechuan again, his eye sockets were dark and sunken, his beard was unshaven, his face was greasy, and he smelled of cigarettes, alcohol, and a sour smell. It looked like he hadn't taken a shower in several days.

Chen Wan suppressed her nausea and asked, "How did you get yourself into this state?"

Gu Zechuan's eyes were dim and dejected, "Is there something wrong?"

"I was worried about you when I couldn't contact you for a few days." Chen Wan pushed open the door and walked into the room.

The curtains were drawn tightly and the lights were off, leaving no light in the room in broad daylight.

Chen Wan frowned and turned on the light.

The living room of the huge suite was filled with empty wine bottles, and the ashtray on the table was full of cigarette butts, with ashes scattered everywhere.

Chen Wan turned on the exhaust fan, then walked to the window, opened the curtains and opened the window for ventilation.

"Gu Zechuan, are you planning to continue this decadent state? What's going to happen to the Gu Group? We haven't been able to secure Su's investment, and Uncle Gu has been running around these past few days, but no company is willing to invest in the Gu Group. After much inquiry, I learned that it's the pressure from Ruan Chutang's fiancé."

Chen Wan looked at Gu Zechuan, "Do you know who Ruan Chutang's fiancé is? He's Jiang Shixu, the president of Jiang Group and the crown prince of Jiangcheng! His family background is even stronger than the Su family's. He has an old man working in Kyoto. If Jiang Shixu says so, which company in Jiangcheng would dare to invest in Gu's?"

Gu Zechuan was like a puppet, his soul lost, his face numb and expressionless, and he did not respond to Chen Wan's words.

Chen Wan said a lot, but when he didn't say a word, she stomped her feet in anger and turned away.

The room fell silent again.

Gu Zechuan dragged his already numb body inside woodenly.

Having stayed in the darkness for too long, he couldn't adapt to the glaring sunlight for a while. He felt dizzy and his tall body swayed, and he was a little unsteady.

He stopped by the window and stared out blankly.

sunny.

After a long time, he picked up his phone.

There were dozens of missed calls and 99+ WeChat messages, but he didn't reply to any of them.

Just at this time, Jiang Yuzhou called again.

Gu Zechuan thought of something and pressed the answer button.

"Zechuan, where have you been recently? Why can't I find you?" Jiang Yuzhou answered the phone with a puzzled tone, "Did you see the message I sent you?"

Gu Zechuan spoke in a hoarse voice, "Are you still in France now?"

Jiang Yuzhou didn't expect him to ask this. He was stunned for a moment and then replied, "Yes, what's the matter? I won't be returning home until tomorrow."

"Buy me something."

"Okay, send it to me." Jiang Yuzhou paused and asked, "What's wrong with your voice? Why is it so hoarse?"

A moment of silence.

Gu Zechuan said softly: "She is getting engaged."

"Huh?" Jiang Yuzhou was confused. "Who? Who's getting engaged?"
