Tang Zui looked at the young woman beside him. Gu Mian’s face immediately turned a little paler. Knowing that she would not be able to escape this time, she clenched her fists tightly.

Gu Mian thought that Tang Zui wanted her confess on her own. She took a deep breath and turned around, ready to confess everything to the police.

A large hand grabbed hers and Gu Mian froze. Tang Zui looked at the two policemen and said, “My head’s really badly injured so I can’t remember what happened. I believe that you guys are capable of conducting a thorough investigation and catching the ‘culprit’ so that I can get an explanation!”

The policemen were at a loss of words.

After the policemen left, Tang Zui suddenly pulled Gu Mian into his embrace with a great force. He extended his hand and clutched her chin as he said coldly, “Don’t think just because I let you go this time that you’ll be alright. If you dare to do anything wrong, I promise I’ll make your life worse than if you were to go to jail!”

Gu Mian sucked in a sharp breath. She wanted to ask Tang Zui why, but in the end, she swallowed her words. Maybe to Tang Zui, the fact that she was alive and breathing was something wrong.

“You’re the one who injured me, so you’ll have to take care of me until I recover. Or I cannot promise that I won’t recall something the next time the policemen come again.” Tang Zui felt indescribably uncomfortable when he looked at her sad black eyes. He furrowed his eyebrows a little.

Gu Mian was speechless.

…..

This time, Long Sijue did not tell Su Qianxun to hurry up and return to Jin Garden, and she was quite surprised by that.

The young woman gave him a call, and only then she knew that Long Sijue had left for a business trip for a few days to attend to something urgent.

After the call ended, Su Qianxun and let her mind trail off. She recalled Lan Qingcheng telling her that Long Sijue had someone he liked who lived overseas, and that he frequently went on business trips to visit that woman.

Su Qianxun was almost unable to breathe, as if a large hand was clutching her heart tightly. Was that the truth?

In the following few days, Su Qianxun stayed at home to take care of Su Jiye. She brought him to the hospital for a few treatments and the results were quite good.

Everytime Su Qianxun went to campus, Qiao Yiren would definitely harass her. She kept asking questions about Long Sijue, so much so that she did not hesitate to make threats and promises to get answers.

“Su Qianxun, aren’t you looking for something your grandfather had left for you?” Qiao Yiren caught up to her and asked.

Su Qianxun had been ignoring her all the while, but after hearing what she said, Su Qianxun suddenly turned around and stared at Qiao Yiren, “How did you know!”

“Not only do I know about it, but I also know where that thing is!” Qiao Yiren raised her chin a little and looked at her.

“You know for real?” Su Qianxun furrowed her eyebrows and looked at Qiao Yiren. She was obviously quite doubtful.

“As long as you’re willing to arrange an opportunity for me to get in touch with Long Sijue, I’ll steal the thing out for you. How about it? This is a fair deal, right?” Qiao Yiren had a very excited expression on her face as she noticed that Su Qianxun seemed tempted.

Su Qianxun looked at her with her eyebrows furrowed. She had absolutely no idea whether what Qiao Yiren had said was true. She replied half-heartedly, “We’ll talk about it again when you get your hands on that thing!”

Qiao Yiren stared after Su Qianxun who was stalking off, and she stomped on the ground gloomily. No one could stop her from getting close to that outstanding man.

A week passed by in the blink of an eye but Long Sijue still had not returned from his business trip. Su Qianxun was lost in her thoughts as she stood before the kitchen stove. This was not the longest he had been gone, but why did she feel like a very, very long time had passed…

Su Qianxun knew that what she was feeling was very unusual. After eating dinner, she returned to her bedroom and lay on the bed. She tossed and turned as she could not sleep, so she picked up her cell phone and gave Gu Mian a call.

Tang Zui disliked the hospital,so he was discharged after staying there for three days. At this very moment, Gu Mian was tied to bed by Tang Zui, and he was toying with her body however he wished…
