Chapter 23 A Nightmare Two Years Ago >

startled, but he knew that now was not the time to ask questions. He said to Gu Chi, "I'll be there right away," and then hung up the phone in a hurry before rushing out of the house. 。Gu Yichan drov...The room was pitch black, not a thing could be seen.

Heat....

It's so hot...

It's so hot, it feels like it's about to explode...

Between her struggles and groans, Su Ke Xin suddenly felt a weight on her body, something cold pressed against her skin.

Su Keqin greedily wanted to embrace that coolness, but unexpectedly, she suddenly heard the man's heavy breathing.

No!

Su Ke Xin's hazy consciousness finally cleared a bit, struggling to push away the person on her. But it was already too late.

A ripping pain surged from below, causing her to scream.

Then came a more intense assault, wave after wave, layer upon layer.

Pain, hatred, and shame almost completely engulfed Su Kexin. She wanted to struggle, but she was powerless and could only endure...

After endless darkness and pain, the surroundings suddenly changed.

Strong winds and torrential rain, with lightning and thunder.

Su Kexin stumbled through the rain, her bruised body wrapped in tattered clothes. She clutched her phone, dialing a number again and again, almost frantically.

Ahkan...

Where are you, Ahchan...

I'm so scared, please come save me...

No matter how she dialed that number, all she heard was a cold female voice —

"Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently out of service. Please try again later."

Finally, Su Keqin could no longer hold on. Her whole body collapsed in the rain...

……

Looking at Su Kexin who was sweating profusely in bed, Gu Chi couldn't help but furrow his brow and look at the doctor beside her who was administering an IV, "Is she really okay"

"Don't worry, Young Master Gu. Madam is just suffering from a cold and fever. She is probably having a nightmare now."

Only then did Gu Chi's brow relax slightly.

After the doctor left the room, Gu Chi looked at Su Kexin on the bed whose face was pale. He just wanted to reach out and touch her forehead, but unexpectedly, Su Kexin's whole body suddenly trembled slightly.

"Su Ke Xin" Gu Chi frowned again involuntarily, "Are you alright"

Su Ke Xin was clearly not awake yet, her pale and chapped lips slightly opening and closing as if she were mumbling something.

Gu Chi's brows furrowed even tighter, and he leaned forward slightly. Only then did he hear Su Ke Xin murmuring something—

"Ah Han... save me... where are you... Ah Han... don't not believe me..."

Ah Chan

Gu Chi stood up, his eyes darkened slightly.

At the sound of it, it's a man's name.

Looking at Su Kexin on the bed, although her face was pale and weak, she couldn't hide the softness in her eyes and eyebrows. Especially her trembling eyelashes, it was a vulnerability Gu Chi had never seen her reveal before.

Gu Zhi pondered deeply.

On second thought, ever since I met her, she's always been careful yet distant. Not to mention relying on others, it seems like she's never even considered depending on herself.

But in her sleep, she held a deep affection and reliance on the man named "Ahan."

As for Su Kexin's past, he had Yang Zhao investigate it. But he values efficiency, so all the stories were just summarized briefly.

For example, he knew she had a heart-wrenching first love. But two years ago, after that incident happened, she broke up with her first love. He didn't ask about her first love's name or background, but now it seems like this Ah Han should be her first love, right

Thinking about this, Gu Chi inexplicably felt a twinge of unease.

At that moment, Su Keqin suddenly slowly opened her eyes.

Gu Chi put away his thoughts, lowered his head to look at her, "Are you alright"

Su Ke Xin blinked, then realized she was lying in a villa bedroom, with an IV still running in her hand.

"Was it you who sent me back" Su Ke Xin spoke, feeling like her throat was on fire.

"Hmm." Gu Chi replied softly, picking up a cup of hot water from the bedside table and offering it to her.

"Thank you." Su Keqin took it and sipped it slowly.

Seeing Su Ke Xin's expression return to its familiar aloofness and politeness, Gu Chi felt a greater unease in his heart for some reason.

"Su Ke Xin." Gu Chi suddenly spoke, "Who is Ah Han"

"Cough cough cough!"

Su Keqin completely didn't expect Gu Chi to suddenly ask such a question, and she was caught off guard, coughing violently.

"Be careful." Compared to Su Ke Xin's fluster, Gu Chi only calmly helped her pat her back.

Su Kexin looked up in a panic and saw Gu Chi looking at her too. He gazed down slightly, his eyes resting on her swollen chin.

It's so harsh.

Gu Chi immediately took out the medicine box from the bedside table and squeezed some ointment onto his hand. He applied it to Su Ke Xin's swollen chin.

A cool sensation brushed against her chin. Su Ke Xin still looked at Gu Chi with some caution, hesitating before speaking: "How did you know Ah Han"

"You were yelling it in your sleep."

Su Ke Xin was taken aback, only then remembering that she had dreamt of two years ago while asleep.

Her eyes darkened involuntarily. Before Su Ke Xin could think of an answer, Gu Chi spoke again, without haste or worry.

Su Ke Xin, I don't care what happened to you in the past. But I hope you understand, you are my wife now, and I don't like my woman calling other men's names.

Even though Gu Chi's voice remained as cold and aloof as ever when he said this, Su Ke Xin felt a strange sense of pressure hearing it.

Especially those pair of black eyes before her, seeming calm on the surface, but deep and dark, Su Ke Xin couldn't fathom the emotions hidden beneath.

At this time, Gu Chi had finished applying medicine to Su Ke Xin. Su Ke Xin lowered her eyes and said, "Thank you."

"No need." Gu Chi calmly put away the ointment, "I don't like there being traces of others on you."

Su Keixin's body stiffened again.

Although she didn't say anything, Gu Chi seemed to already know.

As the coolness of the ointment on her chin spread, Su KeXin suddenly realized that Gu Chi was a far more domineering and unpredictable man than she had imagined.

"I understand." Her palms were sweating unconsciously, and Su Kexin could only bow her head in response.

"Get some rest." Gu Chi turned his wheelchair, "I'll sleep in the guest room tonight."

Without waiting for Su Kexin's reply, he left the room.

Inside the room, Su Keqin lay alone on the soft bed, unable to sleep.

The next day.

After having an IV drip, Su Keqin felt much better. She decided to go to work anyway, but when she got up to pack her things, she found that her own bag was missing, replaced by a designer handbag.

"Wang Ma," she said as she just saw Wang Ma coming up to collect things, "Where's my bag"

"Madam, your bag got ruined by the rain yesterday. This is a new one bought for you by Master."

Su Ke Xin was suddenly at a loss.

She recognized the bag Gu Chi had bought for her, it was Chanel, a brand that cost tens of thousands. Where could she, with her salary, afford such a thing But her own bag had been thrown away, and she didn't have any other options, so she could only grit her teeth and pick up this one.

After having breakfast downstairs, Su Kexin was just about to use her phone to call a car when Gu Chi spoke up, "You're not fully recovered yet, I'll drive you to work today."

"No need." Su Keqin was a little panicked, "I'm alone..."

Ke Guzhi had already turned his wheelchair and walked towards the door, not giving her any room to negotiate.

Su Ke Xin was defeated and could only tilt her head to get in the car with him.

Fortunately, Gu Chi arrived at work earlier than her. When the Bentley reached the company, there were still no people downstairs. Su Keixin said goodbye and then quickly got out of the car.

Gu Chi watched her back, his eyes slightly sinking.

What kind of reaction is this Is she that afraid of people knowing about their relationship

Su Ke Xin got out of the car too quickly, completely oblivious to the two pairs of burning eyes behind her.n Ouyang Chu's entire life environment.Even Puyu Yun's ancient Xia was excited."Xu Zui Ning, at that time I was very puzzled, why you could only detoxify by being near Ou Yang Chu...
