Su An's whole body stiffened for a moment because of this unexpected hug.
Immediately afterwards——
"Gu Jingchen, what are you doing! Let me go!"
She struggled violently, pushed Gu Jingchen away in an instant, and then took two steps back. Her thin eyebrows were tightly knitted, and she looked at him coldly and distantly.
"An'an, I..."
The familiar and warm feeling just now was fleeting.
Gu Jingchen's heart was stabbed hard because of her pushing him away.
Su An was not in the mood to listen to his explanation, and reminded him in a cool tone, "Since you already know that I am getting engaged, please respect yourself!!!"
The air suddenly became quiet for a moment.
The hand that Gu Jingchen raised again froze in mid-air. After a few seconds of pause, he slowly lowered it.
Her warmth seemed to still remain in the palm of his hand.
But……
An An will get engaged soon.
In a few hours, she will be Lu Ziting's fiancée.
Gu Jingchen took a deep breath, it was so painful that he almost couldn't breathe.
Then Su An asked again, "Have you been drinking?"
The smell of alcohol on his body was so obvious that he couldn't even hide it.
Gu Jingchen nodded gently.
Then I heard Su An ask again, "What do you want from me?"
Her tone was vaguely urging, as if she was suppressing her emotions.
Gu Jingchen laughed bitterly in his heart when he heard this.
Oh……
Does An An already hate him so much?
But even he didn't know what he was here for.
I just have an obsession in my heart.
Be sure to come and see her.
Take one last look at her who doesn't belong to Lu Ziting yet.
"An'an."
Gu Jingchen called Su An softly.
Then he asked, "Didn't you reject Lu before..."
"This is between me and the senior, and has nothing to do with you."
Su An only heard half of it before she knew what he wanted to ask and interrupted directly.
Gu Jingchen fell into silence.
My heart was hurt by the cold wind coming from nowhere.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
Su An waited for a few seconds and saw that Gu Jingchen was silent and did not intend to waste any more time, so he spoke in a deep voice.
"If you just came here to ask this, then, no comment, you can go back now..."
"An'an, I'm sorry."
Before she finished speaking, Gu Jingchen suddenly apologized in a deep voice.
In just a few seconds, his voice had become a little hoarse, carrying a heavy layer of apology and exhaustion.
Su An was stunned when he heard this, not knowing what he was here for, and his expression became slightly confused.
However, Gu Jingchen continued to speak slowly——
"I apologize to you for everything in the past. I know that you have suffered too much from me. I am sorry for you... I..."
"No need to say these words anymore."
Su An interrupted Gu Jingchen again, frowning even more.
She has heard enough of these words.
If Gu Jingchen came to apologize again, it would be even more unnecessary.
Su An pursed her lips and couldn't help but clenched her fists.
"Gu Jingchen, in this world, as long as you apologize, some things can be treated as if they never happened."
She looked steadily at the person in front of her, a dark light of determination flashed through her eyes.
He paused for two seconds and continued to speak firmly.
"Also, I have seniors to accompany me to digest these things slowly! Gu Jingchen, every time you appear, every time you say sorry, it reminds me of the scene and feelings at that time, so we should not meet again in the future. I have already
There is a new life!”
She finished what was on her mind in one breath and looked at the person in front of her without any emotion.
Gu Jingchen stood there and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.
But in the end nothing was said.
Su An had blocked everything he could say.
He wants to apologize.
She said no need.
He wanted to stay by her side even as a friend.
She said there was no need to meet again and she already had a new life.
He is the one she wants to abandon, with only the painful "past".
Now it seems that the only thing he should do is not to disturb him, the most correct choice.
But……
He was so unwilling and regretful...
Why have things come to this point?
He has obviously thought of all the ways to repair the relationship between the two...
Gu Jingchen's hands hanging by his sides were squeezed tightly.
There are countless things I want to say in my heart.
But in the end——
"Okay, I understand."
Gu Jingchen whispered five words, and his statue-like tall figure suddenly showed some decadence for a moment, and he took two steps back.
"An'an, I wish you... happiness."
He didn't know what his mood was when he sent his blessings to her.
The last few words almost disappeared in the night wind.
Then he didn't say another word, turned around and left without looking back.
The cold moonlight stretched his shadow into an elongated shape, and it flashed before Su An's eyes.
Su An didn't expect that he would leave like this. She was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously looked at Gu Jingchen's back, unable to explain how she felt.
Gu Jingchen actually said... wish her happiness?
Does this sentence mean that he finally gave up?
After so many years of entanglement, can they finally come to an end?
Or... is it just drunk talk?
Thinking that he was drunk after all, Su An was a little worried that he would leave and come back again.
It wasn't until she saw Gu Jingchen's figure completely disappearing from her sight that she breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and walked back.
Gu Jingchen should have really left.
From now on, the two of them should never have any intersection at all.
Su An walked into the corridor while thinking about it, unable to help but feel a little lost in thought.
Then she suddenly heard a slight sound behind her, as if someone was walking over from behind her.
Is it Gu Jingchen?
Su An's eyes widened slightly, and she subconsciously wanted to turn around.
But before he could take action, there was a sudden burst of wind in his ears!
Her mouth and nose were also covered from behind!
"Ugh!!!"
Su An immediately started struggling violently, and her breath was filled with a pungent smell, causing panic to quickly appear in her eyes.
who!
This person is not Gu Jingchen!!!
Not knowing who would attack her from behind, Su An struggled to get free.
But my eyelids are getting heavier and heavier.
His body was uncontrollable and he was dragged towards the safe passage!
wrong……
On this person's hands...
Su An suddenly realized that there might be drugs on the other party's hands, and immediately wanted to hold her breath.
But it was already too late.
The scene in front of me became increasingly dim, and gradually I couldn't even see the light above my head clearly.
I could only feel myself being thrown to the ground in a panic.
A vague figure also appeared above his head.
who is...
Su An squinted his eyes, trying hard to see his attacker clearly.
But it's all in vain.
finally--
Sensitive nerves are completely invaded by drugs.
Her eyesight went dark and she was completely plunged into darkness.
…
Early morning, Lu family——
Lu Ziting stayed up almost all night. As soon as it dawned, he changed into a tall black suit and walked out of the room.
Unexpectedly, when I reached the stairs, I saw Lu Ziying who was also dressed up.
"Ziying, why are you so early?"
Lu Ziting looked at her in surprise.
Lu Ziying raised her eyebrows and replied matter-of-factly, "Today is a big day for your engagement, so of course I have to get up earlier! How about it, brother, am I pretty?"
As she spoke, she turned around in front of Lu Ziting's eyes, showing off her new skirt.
Lu Ziting immediately praised, "It looks great!"
After saying that, the conversation suddenly changed, "But... compared with your sister-in-law..."
"Okay, okay, I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder! Stop giving me shit!"
Lu Ziying didn't want to be interrupted by his show of affection so early in the morning.
Lu Ziting shut up knowingly, but he couldn't hide the smile in his eyes, and his whole body exuded a sense of happiness from the inside out.
The brother and sister went downstairs talking and laughing.
When I came to the living room, I found that Bai Moqin and Lu Yan had also gotten up.
Since the two expressed their opinions the day before yesterday, they have not said a word about the engagement banquet, leaving everything to Lu Ziting's own arrangement.
But no matter what, this is Lu Ziting's marriage, and they will not ignore it.
"Dad, Mom."
Lu Ziting was in a good mood and said hello to them.
Lu Yan nodded and said nothing.
But Bai Moqin glanced at him and saw that he was getting ready. He couldn't help but choked him and said, "The engagement party only started at eleven o'clock. Did you wear this to bed last night? Are you in such a hurry?"
"mom……"
Knowing that she was still feeling a little uncomfortable, Lu Ziting felt helpless.
Lu Ziying also hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "Mom, my brother is not afraid that he is not handsome enough, so he wants to change his clothes and show you. Who told you that you have good taste!"
"Humph, stop trying to make me happy."
Bai Moqin refused to accept this trick and glanced at Lu Ziying. The expression on his face was calmer than before.
Lu Ziting breathed a sigh of relief and gave Lu Ziying a grateful look.
Then he made an excuse to check with the hotel to confirm the situation, turned around, found a deserted corner, and hurriedly took out his cell phone.
From beginning to end, there was a faint smile on his lips.
The joy almost overflowed.
The day has finally arrived...
God knows, he dreams of marrying An An home early and staying with her for the rest of his life!
Lu Ziting thought, quickly found Su An's phone number, dialed it, and waited expectantly to hear her voice, which was like a sleepy little animal that might not have woken up yet.
But I didn’t expect——
"Sorry, the phone you dialed has been turned off."
A cold female voice came from the receiver.
Lu Ziting's smile froze instantly.
Shut down?
He was stunned for a moment, as if he suspected that he heard it wrong, and quickly replayed it again.
Immediately afterwards——
"Sorry, you dialed..."
Lu Ziting didn't wait for the voice to finish this time and cut it off directly.
The whole person was stunned on the spot, and his mind was a little blank.
Why did An An shut down her phone?
Could it be...
An ominous premonition suddenly arose in his heart.
Then he hurriedly shook his head and quickly denied himself.
No way...
Since An An has promised that he will not leave again, he will definitely keep his word.
And for such a big event as an engagement, his parents will also be present.
She wouldn't joke about something like this.
Maybe I just went to bed too late yesterday, my phone ran out of battery and turned off, and I haven’t woken up yet!
Yes...that must be the case!
Lu Ziting thought and couldn't help but dial her number again.
The result is still the same.
He stood there, even though he had comforted himself countless times in his heart, he still felt uneasy.
I even want to go find her directly now!
"Brother, what are you doing? Mom asked you to have breakfast."
Lu Ziying walked over from a distance and saw him standing there blankly, looking a little confused.
Lu Ziting came back to his senses instantly, but he still felt uneasy in his heart.
After a two-second pause, he pretended to be relaxed and said, "Ziying, you guys eat first. I'll pick up An An first. She seems a little nervous. It's almost time in a while, so you can go to the hotel with your parents."
"Okay, leave it to me!"
Lu Ziying knew that he must be anxious to see Su An now, so she agreed immediately.
Lu Ziting gave a few more instructions before leaving in a hurry.
He got into the car directly and left home quickly.
On the way, I called Su An again.
But no matter what, there was always only a cold mechanical electronic sound on the other side, reminding him that Su An had not turned on the phone.
Lu Ziting glanced at the time, feeling increasingly uneasy.
It's almost eight o'clock...
He made an appointment with An An last night to pick her up around 8:30 and take her to get her styling done.
By this time, she should have woken up early...
Just wait two more minutes.
Maybe he'll wake up in two minutes.
Lu Ziting was uneasy and comforted himself in his heart.
After waiting for another two minutes, he couldn't help but pick up the phone again and wanted to try to make another call.
Just about to dial out——
But a phone call suddenly came in!
Lu Ziting felt happy and his expression relaxed for a moment.
An An must have woken up!!!
While paying attention to the traffic, he picked up the phone without looking at it.
"An'an..."
"Lu Ziting, is An An with you?"
Two voices spoke at the same time.
Lu Ziting's hand on the steering wheel tightened suddenly and he confirmed the number uncertainly.
Only then was it confirmed that it was really Gu Jingchen who called.
"What's up?"
He did not answer Gu Jingchen's question, and his tone became a little cold for a moment.
Could it be that Gu Jingchen knew about their engagement, so he made a special call...
Lu Ziting was just thinking, and then he heard as expected -
"I know you and An An are getting engaged today. Is she with you?"
Gu Jingchen's voice sounded a little anxious.
Lu Ziting's expression became even colder and he warned in a deep voice, "Gu Jingchen, An An has nothing to do with you anymore. Today..."
"I asked you if she is with you! Answer me first!!!"
Gu Jingchen roared and interrupted Lu Ziting directly, for some reason he was particularly persistent on this issue.
Lu Ziting frowned, seeming to sense something was wrong from his tone.
Thinking that Su An's phone call had not been answered yet, his heart suddenly lifted. He was silent for two seconds and then replied, "No, but I am on the way to pick her up. What on earth can you do?"
After hearing his answer, the voice on the other end of the phone suddenly went silent.
Lu Ziting was even more puzzled.
Thinking that Gu Jingchen still wanted to obstruct him, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and he suppressed his emotions, planning to give Gu Jingchen one last warning.
But before he could speak, the next second, Gu Jingchen's voice finally sounded again with a hint of trembling.
"I received the information that An An was kidnapped. The other party asked me for a ransom of one billion, but refused to provide any evidence that An An was in his hands."
