Gu Wencheng was very strong.Meng Nianyao’s wrist hurt from his grip.
“Gu Wencheng!” Meng Nianyao tried and failed to shake him off. “You’re hurting me!”
Gu Wencheng’s face was cold and expressionless. Meng Nianyao frowned as she was dragged into the bedroom. Then, he pinned her against the wall. “Where did you go?” Gu Wencheng looked at her, his eyes deep and dark.
Meng Nianyao’s back hit the wall and she gasped in pain. After the pain subsided, she heard Gu Wencheng’s question. She looked at Gu Wencheng and said calmly, “Nowhere. There was a traffic jam on the way back.”
“I’ll ask you again. Where did you go?”
“Nowhere.” Meng Nianyao frowned.
Gu Wencheng didn’t speak again and his slender legs pressed against Meng Nianyao’s legs. Meng Nianyao frowned when she touched the place where she had been injured last night. She looked up at Gu Wencheng. “If you don’t believe me, why did you leave?”
She was talking about Gu Wencheng slamming the door in the morning.
Gu Wencheng was really angry. In the morning, he was angry that Meng Nianyao didn’t cherish her body, and now he was angry that she had provoked Lin Ping. Why was she so disobedient? Gu Wencheng looked at Meng Nianyao with anger in his eyes.
Meng Nianyao and Gu Wencheng looked at each other. Just when she thought Gu Wencheng was going to get angry, he let go of her. “Since you’re so disobedient, don’t go out again.” After saying that, he let go of Meng Nianyao and walked out, locking the bedroom door.
Meng Nianyao was stunned for a moment. When she came back to her senses, she realized that the door lock couldn’t be opened. “Open the door! Do you want to lock me up? What right do you have to lock me up!”
The commotion upstairs spread downstairs. Aunty Yang could hear it all. She didn’t know if she should tell the two elderlies of the household. Just as she was thinking about it, Gu Wencheng came downstairs.
Aunt Yang had raised Gu Wencheng since he was a child, so he was like her own child. She hesitated for a moment and asked, “Wencheng, what happened between you and Nianyao for you to lock her up?”
“Aunty Yang, keep an eye on her. Don’t let her out before I come back. Help me hide this from Grandpa and Grandma.” With that, he turned around and left.
Auntie Yang stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Meng Nianyao was locked in the bedroom. She lowered her voice and knocked on the door. “Hurry up and open the door!” She was also afraid that Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu would be worried if they heard her, so she quieted down after shouting twice. She leaned against the door and slid to the ground. That bastard!
Gu Wencheng walked out of the old mansion coldly. Ping Yang was waiting for him in the car. When she saw him coming out, she got out and opened the door. Ping Yang glanced at Gu Wencheng and reminded herself to be careful today.
It was snowing heavily now, and Gu Wencheng was giving off an air even colder than the cold air. He got into the car and said to Ping Yang, “Let’s go and meet Lin Ping.”
Ping Yang was stunned for a moment before she nodded and immediately took out her phone to call Lin Ping. The call was quickly picked up. Ping Yang explained the situation, but Lin Ping refused.
Ping Yang was caught in the middle. She stole a glance at Gu Wencheng and continued to speak to Lin Ping. “Madam, the boss is looking for you urgently. Why don’t you tell me where you are now so we can go to you directly?”
Ping Yang’s words were tactful, but her attitude was clear. They had to meet today.
“Come on,” Lin Ping sneered on the other end of the phone. Then, she gave them an address.
Lin Ping was entertaining the wives of Gu Guanping’s colleagues in the officialdom today. Since Gu Wencheng was coming, they were leaving early. When Gu Wencheng arrived, Lin Ping had just sent off the last guest. This was the place where she and Gu Guanping often stayed when they came back. The decorations were simple and elegant, but those who knew about style knew that while the decorations looked low-key, they were actually very expensive.
When she saw Gu Wencheng, Lin Ping called out to let them know she was in, then opened the door to let Gu Wencheng in. Ping Yang was behind Gu Wencheng. She bowed to Lin Ping and closed the door.
Gu Wencheng walked to the center of the room and stood still. Lin Ping glanced at him and went to pour two cups of tea. “There’s nothing else at home. We’ll have to make do with this.”
Gu Wencheng didn’t sit down. Lin Ping handed him a teacup, but he didn’t take it. Lin Ping frowned and put the cup aside. “Tell me, what’s the matter?”
“What did you say to Meng Nianyao?” Gu Wencheng stared at Lin Ping, his deep eyes cold..
