Chapter 980: Nighttime Assassination
uld be in her office. She didn't have the courage to go up.She is such a coward.Looking at the torrential rain, Su Keqin originally wanted to take a taxi, but it was rush hour after work, and with the..."A visit Bah! You just want to see the show, don't you!"
Xiaodang had been seething with anger these past two days due to his previous intelligence gathering. Now that Gu Kejun had walked straight into his trap, how could he possibly hold back
"Come on, tell me. What wind blew you here today What exactly do you want" Tang Lijia looked up at Gu Kejun, her eyes cold and unwavering, her aura radiating power without giving an inch.
After she finished speaking, she turned her head again and looked at Gu Keyu with concern. She sized him up from head to toe and then anxiously asked, "Gu Keyu, are you alright now Did this woman do something bad again"
"I'm fine, she doesn't have the ability to hurt me. She's just talking tough here, but I don't take it to heart anyway."
Gu Kejun stood at the door of the ward, constantly bombarded by Xiao Tang and Tang Lijia. Now, seeing their gazes all focused on Gu Keyu, she turned her head and sneered, then took a deep look.
Her eyes were very intriguing, containing many pieces of information that Gu Ke'yu couldn't understand. She was only focused on answering Tang Li Jia's words and hadn't turned her head to look carefully when Gu Kejun had already stepped into the ward and disappeared.
Looking at Gu Kejun's series of reflections, Gu Keyu couldn't help but feel a drumbeat in his heart. If it were usual, Gu Kejun would definitely not come to visit him. This time, she was probably holding some trump card.
Although Gu Ke Yu appeared calm on the surface, her heart was already in turmoil. Her sixth sense had always been very accurate, and this time, she sensed that something was lurking in the shadows, unseen by her. It was likely that a massive change would occur soon.
As always, the good prevailed over the bad, Gu Ke Yu's premonition came true immediately.
Little Tang and the others stayed with Gu Ke'yu in the hospital ward for a while. After a simple dinner, Gu Ke'yu urged them to go back and rest.
Normally, work was already very busy, and Xiao Tang and the others were like spinning tops, constantly in motion. Gu Ke Yù didn't want to burden them with continued protection.
Although she couldn't leave the ward herself, there were nurses and doctors in the hospital 24 hours a day, so there was nothing to worry about.
Even though Gu Ke'yu had relaxed her mind to such an extent, accidents still happened, and she had no room to resist at all.
That evening, Gu Ke Yu felt like a fish on a chopping board, her body fixed and unable to move. Even the air was heavy with suffocation.
Gu Ke Yu had never doubted his sixth sense, even though most of the time it was a bad feeling.
Since Xiao Tang and the others left, she lay on the bed listlessly, drifting into sleep. Although the hospital wasn't too quiet at night, closing the ward door always made it better.
It was precisely because of this quiet environment that Gu Ke'yu felt her other senses were amplified instantly. Lying on the bed in a daze, she sensed something unusual.
Perhaps because people are particularly alert when in danger, she suddenly opened her eyes and saw a man steadily approaching her bedside.
He was dressed head to toe in black, with a baseball cap on his head and a mask covering his face, obscuring his true features. Only his pair of hawk-like eyes were visible, carrying a hint of cunning and ruthlessness.
In the dimly lit hospital room at night, Gu Ke'yu only had a very dim bedside lamp on. She half-closed her eyes and could see the man hiding in the darkness, his hand holding a cold, gleaming dagger approaching her relentlessly.
The man in black also clearly noticed Gu Ke Yu had woken up. He waved his arm and rushed to the bedside. Gu Ke Yu immediately woke up, flipping over and falling half-on the floor.
The man in black probably didn't expect Gu Ke's reaction to be so swift. After a cold snort, he swapped the dagger to his other hand, gripping it tightly. He then rushed forward in three or two steps, seizing hold of Gu Ke's sleeve.
It must be several o'clock in the morning now. Although there are nurses on duty outside, most of them are gathered at the nurse's station. Apart from a few patients who have pressed the call button, there are no extra people in the corridor.
Since this man in black was sent to assassinate him, he was probably well-prepared today. Gu Ke'yu was seriously injured and she didn't have much energy to recover now.
Just as she closed her eyes and sank into despair, a dull thud resonated as something crashed onto the floor. She sprang open her eyes and scrambled backward several steps, only to see the man in black lying sprawled on the ground.
Lu Jiuyan pulled up his sleeve and got up from the ground. If he hadn't arrived in time, that cold-glancing dagger might have plunged into Gu Ke's flesh again.
"Are you alright" He kicked the black-clothed man who lay limp on the ground, walked forward and pulled Gu Ke'yu up from the floor, asking her with concern.
Gu Ke Yu watched the black-clad man knocked unconscious by Lu Ji Yan, his whole body breaking out in a cold sweat. He then came to his senses and slowly shook his head at him.
Lu Jiyan gripped Gu Ke Yu's shoulders tightly, his grip so strong that it sent a wave of pain through Gu Ke Yu's bones. Although Gu Ke Yu felt some pain, he didn't say anything.
"I'm fine, I was just really scared just now, it was terrifying, he suddenly burst in, I didn't even know."
"Would you please turn on all the lights around me I want to take a good look at who he is."
Lu Jiayan nodded and immediately went to the wall next to him and turned on all the lights. The sudden bright light made Mingming's eyes a little uncomfortable.
She widened her eyes and looked around the ward. At this time, there was no third person present. The man in black must have slipped away quietly while they were talking just now.
It seems he was pretending to be unconscious just now.
Lu Jiayan crossed his arms and said to Gu Ke'yu in a somewhat sullen tone. Then he turned his head and stared at her, asking: "Think hard, have there been anything wrong lately Or have you offended anyone"
"Lately, I haven't felt anything unusual. It's just that there are so many people who want to harm me, and even I don't have any clue now." Gu Keyu shook his head helplessly at him, but in his heart, he already had his own suspicions.that this Si Nian was indeed a simple girl. She believed everything he said and didn't seem as difficult to get along with as she appeared.After nearly two hours, the makeup and styling were finally d...
