Mr. Gu, stop being abusive, Miss Xu is marrying your brother.

"Xu Yan!"

Zhang Bin rushed into the alley and looked around anxiously.

Where has she gone?

"Xu Yan!"

The alley was very quiet. Zhang Bin ran and searched for a long time but could not find Xu Yan.

He didn't know that Xu Yan liked to find a corner to hide after being frightened.

She was so scared that she hid next to the trash can in the corner of the alley, shivering.

six years ago.

Xu Yan drank a glass of wine at the banquet, and then was taken to a room in a daze.

She was very scared and kept struggling and shouting in her heart, but her body was not under control at all.

She desperately tried to escape and tried to stay awake, but it was no use.

She cried, banged on the door, wanted to leave, begged for help, and struggled, but no one rescued her.

If the hotel's floor-to-ceiling glass hadn't been fully enclosed, she might have been tempted to jump.

She just huddled in the corner, slowly despairing of everyone.

"Bitch, shameless."

"Look at the marks on her body, she doesn't even have any clothes on."

"Look, there's blood on the bed, why are you so shameless?"

The next day, before she woke up, Xia Xueluo and Gu Zheyu had already rushed in with reporters.

She opened her eyes blankly, then hugged the quilt tightly and wrapped herself tightly in fear.

The fear in that moment was even greater than that night.

She was like a fish left on the shore to die of thirst, making its last struggle.

She cried helplessly, begging Gu Zheyu to help her.

But Gu Zheyu's eyes were cold, cruel, strange, and disgusting.

Every expression severely threw her into hell.

He stepped on her one foot after another.

What's wrong with her? It was the people who hurt her who were wrong.

But no one believed her, and everyone wanted to step her into the mud and make her irrecoverable.

Xu Yan was scared. When she was scared, it was difficult to even breathe.

Hiding in the corner, Xu Yan cried silently until her whole body was shaking.

Several drunk men passed by in the alley, Xu Yan curled up tighter, biting her fingers, crying and not daring to make a sound.

She had bitten her finger, and the sweet smell of blood spread in her mouth.

It seemed like she couldn't breathe on her own.

Just like the day she was locked up in the Gu family warehouse by Gu Zheyu and Xia Xueluo, she was terrified to the extreme. The somatic symptoms of depression and anxiety would make her even breathing numb.

"Xu Yan."

Just when Xu Yan was extremely frightened, wherever she looked, she saw a familiar figure.

She stiffened her body and looked up at Gu Chenyan with glazed eyes.

It's just a dream.

Didn't he go to Beijing on a business trip? Why did he appear in the mountain city?

impossible.

It must be a dream.

Gu Chenyan's breathing was a little rapid. Seeing that Xu Yan was not in good condition, he slowly squatted in front of her. "Give me your hand."

Xu Yan was biting her hand, and there was blood on the back of her hand. She bit deeply.

Xu Yan's eyes trembled and she raised her fingers tremblingly. She wanted to hand it over, but she felt dirty and froze in place, hesitating and lingering.

Gu Chenyan grabbed Xu Yan's wrist, pulled her into his arms, and breathed a sigh of relief. "go home."

He found her.

……

Chen Yu said he didn't care about Xu Yan, but he still stepped on the accelerator and rushed to the hospital in one hour and ten minutes.

Zhang Hui said that Jiang Heng took Xu Yan away and said that Jiang Heng's condition was very wrong.

Gu Chenyan ran downstairs and saw Jiang Heng's car still in the parking lot, knowing that Xu Yan must be nearby.

He knew that Xu Yan liked to hide in corners when she was scared, hiding in places where she thought she was safe.

"Mr. Gu!" Chen Yu also chased after him and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Gu Chenyan had found Xu Yan. "Jiang Heng's assistant is also looking for Xu Yan. Jiang Heng has rushed back to the Jiang family. I heard that the old man of the Jiang family has a heart condition."

Gu Chenyan put his coat on Xu Yan and spoke in a low voice. "Go back to Haicheng first."

"Ah?" Chen Yu looked at Gu Chenyan in shock. "Mr. Gu... it will take more than four hours at the fastest to get back to Haicheng from here. Let's rush back to Beijing from Haicheng. Your afternoon meeting... there will be no rest time at all. It's too tiring."

Gu Chenyan didn't care and got into the car with Xu Yan in his arms.

Xu Yan waited for a long time before she realized that the people around her were real and not a fantasy.

She tried hard to make a sound, but for the time being, she couldn't make any sound.

"Drink some hot water." Gu Chenyan handed Xu Yan the hot water.

Xu Yan took it with trembling fingers, warmth slowly spreading from her fingertips.

Gu Chenyan did not ask Xu Yan what happened.

He just leaned on the seat quietly and waited for Xu Yan to recover before speaking. "If you encounter an emergency in the future, you can tell me and I will send you a driver."

Xu Yan opened her mouth, lowered her head and spoke softly. "Thanks……"

Gu Chenyan said nothing and slowly closed his eyes.

Xu Yan held the hot water in her hand, her voice hoarse. "Why is Mr. Gu...in the mountain city?"

"Passing by." Gu Chenyan said lightly.

Xu Yan lowered her eyes and said nothing.

Gu Chenyan probably didn't want her to misunderstand.

Along the way, Gu Chenyan didn't say another word.

Xu Yan secretly glanced at Gu Chenyan. He was extremely good-looking. With his eyes closed, his eyebrows were still deep and noble.

Her panicked heart gradually calmed down. Xu Yan leaned against the car glass and watched Gu Chenyan rest.

It seemed that just by looking at him, my heart could calm down.

"Are you hungry?" Perhaps because he noticed Xu Yan looking at him, Gu Chenyan slowly opened his eyes, his voice was hoarse and pleasant.

Xu Yan was so frightened that she suddenly sat upright and subconsciously wanted to get up. Her head hit the roof of the car and she almost dropped the water glass in her hand.

Gu Chenyan reached out to catch Xu Yan's water glass and smiled. "Get a bigger car next time."

Xu Yan's ears turned red and she lowered her head and said nothing.

Gu Chenyan brought some snacks and placed them beside Xu Yan.

The snacks in the car are still prepared for Xia Xia.

Because Xia Xia had low blood sugar last time, Gu Chenyan asked Chen Yu to prepare some snacks in the car.

Xu Yan stared blankly at the snacks, then looked up at Gu Chenyan.

Don't be so nice to her...

Flowers that grow in darkness will die if they suddenly see sunlight.

Carefully reaching out for a piece of bread, Xu Yan tore it open and took a bite.

Very sweet.

After eating some bread, my stomach felt much better.

The car was too quiet, Xu Yan fell asleep leaning against the car window.

"Mr. Gu, we're here."

"Shh!" Gu Chenyan looked at the time, it was three-thirty in the morning.

Making a gesture of silence, Gu Chenyan carried Xu Yan out of the car.

Xu Yan sleeps very lightly. She would wake up immediately if there was any disturbance in prison.

But for some reason, she fell into a deep sleep this time.

Chen Yu snorted and spoke in a low voice. "Mr. Gu, please sleep at home for a while. We'll set off at eight o'clock."

Gu Chenyan nodded and carried Xu Yan into the bedroom.

After putting the person on the bed, Gu Chenyan wanted to leave, but Xu Yan's fingers held on to his cuffs.

Standing beside the bed in silence for a long time, Gu Chenyan's thoughts were a little complicated.

He was indeed a little too different from Xu Yan.

This may not be a good thing for Xu Yan.

It seems that we still need to maintain some distance.

Unless, he can be completely responsible for her.
