Chapter 905: Relieving Worry
"No need to explain," Jiang Mubai looked at him coldly, "I understand everything."
She turned around and left the ward without looking back.
Jiang Mubai walked aimlessly on the street, letting the cold wind mess up her hair. She felt as if her heart had been hollowed out, empty, with nothing left.
She didn't understand why Lu Jingchen treated her like this? She had given so much to him, but in the end, she was only deceived.
Suddenly, a black car stopped in front of her. The window slowly lowered, revealing a familiar face.
"Get in the car." The man's tone was cold and left no room for doubt.
Jiang Mubai recognized the man. He was Gu Yanchen's brother, Gu Yanze.
Gu Yanze, a man who is a big shot in the business world and a man that countless women flock to.
Jiang Mubai hesitated for a moment, but finally got in the car.
The carriage was filled with a faint smell of tobacco, mixed with the unique cold breath of men, making Jiang Mubai feel a little suffocated.
"Why do you want to help me?" Jiang Mubai looked at Gu Yanze with a calm tone.
Gu Yanze turned to look at her, his eyes deep and unpredictable. "Because you are very interesting."
Interesting? Jiang Mubai didn't understand what he meant.
Gu Yanze raised his lips into an evil smile and said slowly, "I like watching plays, especially plays like yours."
Jiang Mubai's heart sank suddenly. She realized that she might have fallen into a bigger trap...
Gu Yanze chuckled. The chuckle was deep and magnetic, but it made Jiang Mubai feel creepy. "Interesting? Mr. Gu, I don't think my current situation is interesting."
"No, you're very interesting." Gu Yanze repeated, with a hint of amusement in his eyes, "You're like a little white rabbit that strayed into a pack of wolves, pure, innocent, yet full of temptation."
Jiang Mubai bit her lip and said nothing. She knew that Gu Yanze was not a good person, but now she had no choice.
"Lu Jingchen, he doesn't deserve you." Gu Yanze said suddenly, with a barely perceptible tenderness in his tone.
Jiang Mubai suddenly raised her head and looked at Gu Yanze. She didn't understand why Gu Yanze suddenly mentioned Lu Jingchen.
"I know you love him." Gu Yanze continued, his tone firm, "but he can't give you the happiness you want."
Jiang Mubai's heart trembled suddenly. Gu Yanze's words were like a sharp knife, stabbing into her heart fiercely.
"What do you want?" Gu Yanze looked at her with deep eyes, "Money? Fame? Or..." He paused, his tone ambiguous, "A man who truly loves you?"
Jiang Mubai felt her cheeks getting hot. She didn't know how to answer Gu Yanze's question.
"I can give you everything you want." Gu Yanze's voice sounded in her ears, low and seductive, "As long as you are willing..."
Jiang Mubai took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm. "Mr. Gu, I think you misunderstood. I..."
"Don't be so hasty to refuse." Gu Yanze interrupted her, with a wicked smile on his face, "You can still think about it again."
The car stopped in front of a luxurious villa. Gu Yanze got out of the car and opened the door for Jiang Mubai.
"Please." He made an inviting gesture.
Jiang Mubai hesitated for a moment, but finally got out of the car.
The interior of the villa is luxuriously decorated, highlighting the owner's noble status everywhere.
"Do you like it?" Gu Yanze asked.
Jiang Mubai didn't answer. She looked around with a hint of vigilance in her eyes.
"Don't be nervous." Gu Yanze chuckled, "I won't hurt you."
He walked to the wine cabinet, poured two glasses of red wine, and handed one to Jiang Mubai.
"Drink some."
Jiang Mubai took the wine glass and took a sip. The mellow taste of the red wine spread in her mouth, making her feel dizzy.
"I won't force you to do anything you don't like." Gu Yanze looked at her and said gently, "I just want to give you a choice."
Jiang Mubai put down his glass and looked at Gu Yanze. "What choice?"
"Be my woman." Gu Yanze looked straight into her eyes with a firm tone.
Jiang Mubai's heart sank suddenly. She didn't expect Gu Yanze to be so direct.
"I..." She opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Gu Yanze suddenly approached her, raised her chin with his hand, and forced her to look at him. "Are you afraid of me?"
Jiang Mubai's heart was beating very fast, and she felt her breathing becoming rapid.
"No, I am not……"
"Then why don't you dare look at me?" Gu Yanze's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of danger.
Jiang Mubai bit his lip and forced himself to look him in the eye.
Gu Yanze's eyes were deep and blurred, as if he wanted to suck her in.
"You are beautiful," he whispered, with a hint of admiration in his tone.
His fingers gently stroked her cheek, the movement was gentle, but it made Jiang Mubai shudder.
"you……"
"Shh..." Gu Yanze put his finger on her lips to stop her from speaking. "Don't talk, let me take a good look at you."
His eyes were so hot that they seemed to melt her.
Jiang Mubai felt his body getting hotter and hotter, and his consciousness began to become blurred...
Suddenly, the ringing of a cell phone broke the ambiguous atmosphere.
It was Lu Jingchen calling.
Jiang Mubai suddenly woke up and pushed Gu Yanze away.
"Sorry, I……"
She turned around and stumbled out... leaving Gu Yanze alone, standing there, with a complicated look in his eyes and a meaningful smile on his lips...
Jiang Mubai stumbled out of the villa. The cool night breeze did not calm her down at all. Gu Yanze's eyes, the tone of his voice, the touch of his fingertips... everything made her feel flustered and uneasy. Lu Jingchen's call was like a life-saving straw, allowing her to escape from the suffocating ambiguous atmosphere.
She stood on the side of the road, gasping for breath, her heart still beating violently. Lu Jingchen's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone: "Mu Bai, where are you? Are you okay? Why didn't you answer my call?"
Jiang Mubai tried to calm his breathing and made his voice sound normal: "I... I'm fine. I was busy just now... I'm outside now."
"You're outside? It's so late, where are you? I'll pick you up." Lu Jingchen's tone was full of worry.
Jiang Mubai hesitated for a moment, but finally reported her location. She only wanted to see Lu Jingchen now, and only when she was with him could she feel safe.
The waiting time was extremely long, and every minute felt like a century. The dim lights on the roadside lengthened her figure and magnified her inner fear. She kept thinking back to what had just happened in the villa. Gu Yanze's domineering yet gentle behavior made her feel scared, but also with a hint of inexplicable throbbing.
A black car stopped in front of her, and the window slowly lowered, revealing Lu Jingchen's handsome face. There was obvious worry in his eyes, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Jiang Mubai.
