On the sofa, Xia Tong was wrapped in a thick quilt and couldn't help but sneeze again.
Gu Haoran put gauze on his forehead with one hand and handed over a bowl of ginger soup: "Drink a little, it will cool down."
Xia Tong held it with both hands and took a big sip. The cold feeling on his body was relieved a little.
He pressed the gauze and said sadly: "You are really cruel."
Xia Tong glanced at him: "Who asked you to do anything?"
"……."
After saying that, she was stunned. That familiar and friendly feeling seemed to be back. He seemed to be no longer the deep man who was scheming and planning everything in the story. He was still the cute and playful person before. Gu Haoran.
But she knew that after all this, she and him could no longer go back.
"Where is this?" Xia Tong asked.
He seemed to have noticed something was wrong with his tone, and turned away without speaking.
Xia Tong continued to ask: "How long are you going to keep me here?"
"……."
"Gu Haoran, what do you want to do?" Xia Tong's tone became irritable.
"Just stay here for the next few days, and I will let you go then." After he said that, he stepped out of the room.
Xia Tong pounded the sofa hard in frustration.
******** ********
In City A, Shen Yin had just gotten off work, but was blocked by a person.
"Miss Shen." It was Nie Sheng who spoke: "Master Mu, please invite me."
Qin Mujie frowned slightly, probably guessing the purpose of this person's visit.
At the flower bed in front of the radio station, Qin Muzhen stared at the woman in front of him and asked, "Xia Tong stayed at your place last night?"
Shen Yin was stunned. She didn't expect that he could even find this. He couldn't deny it: "Yes."
"Where is she now?" He calmly got to the point. From last night to now, for nearly twenty-four hours, he almost went crazy looking for that woman and almost searched the entire city A.
"I don't know." Shen Yin shook his head, "She just slept at my house last night and left in the morning. I don't know where she went."
"You don't know either..." He frowned, looking unhappy.
Shen Yin paused, not knowing whether to say anything, but finally spoke: "Before she left in the morning, she had a phone call with Gu Haoran."
Gu Haoran... Qin Mujie thought for a while, then turned around and walked quickly towards the car.
Shen Yin suddenly called him from behind: "Qin Muju..."
He paused and did not look back.
"I was sorry back then." She lowered her head and said, "This time, please protect her and don't let her repeat the tragedy of Lin Manru six years ago."
It didn't matter whether he could understand or not, he turned around after he said it. But he was sighing in his heart, just hoping that he would never understand, that might be the best.

All day long, Xia Tong was locked in this villa.
She admitted that she was very irritable and she didn't understand why Gu Haoran did this?
After searching all the exits of the villa, but still unable to find any possibility or method of escape, she finally sat down on the carpet in frustration. Leaning on the sofa, she walked around the floor in depression.
What the hell is going on? What's going on?
His eyes wandered around in boredom, and finally landed in the center of the hall. There was a crystal clear and beautiful crystal piano. There was a bright light in the corner, dancing with the bright moonlight.
Xia Tong didn't know what material the piano was made of, but he just thought it was really beautiful. He couldn't help but stand up, walked up to it, touched the piano body, and sighed.
Unfortunately, she can only touch it. She is a complete amateur at playing the piano.
The door of the villa was pushed open, and Gu Haoran walked in. Xia Tong subconsciously retracted his hand, but he still looked at him. His eyebrows that had just relaxed suddenly condensed together.
"Stay away from there," he said.
Xia Tong hurriedly took a step back. Unexpectedly, he was so flustered that he didn't notice the steps at his feet. He leaned back and fell over.
"It hurts!" Xia Tong was once again so depressed that she wanted to go crazy. Was she possessed by evil spirits today? She had already been miserable when she fell from the second floor window sill into the swimming pool during the day, and now she fell hard to the ground again.
He put down what he was holding, hesitated for a moment, stepped forward, held her ankle, and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Xia Tong nodded: "It seems to be twisted."
Sure enough, the injured area began to turn blue and purple. He stood up and carried her to the sofa. Then he took out some ice cubes from the refrigerator and wrapped them in a towel. He put a cold compress on her, and then Xia Tong felt
The burning pain in my ankle subsided slightly.
"Be careful in the future." He said, his tone was somewhat unnaturally gentle.
Xia Tong nodded hurriedly, then touched his stomach, his tone was a bit resentful: "I'm so hungry, is there anything to eat?"
He fumbled for a few bags of bread from the cabinet and handed them to her: "Let's eat some of this today, and we'll get some other delicious things tomorrow."
Xia Tong took the bread, rubbed it, and suddenly asked: "How many days do you plan to lock me up here?"
He looked stiff and said nothing.
Xia Tong said: "Shen Yin has told me everything about your grudges with the Qin family and Su Ruo's matter."
"..." He raised his head: "Then, what do you want to say? Do you want to call me inhumane or vicious? Xia Tong, let me tell you, I can be more ruthless than Qin Muxuan to those who don't matter.
."
"But so what if you are cruel?" Xia Tong said, "She is already dead."
"Shut up!" He suddenly stood up and scolded him coldly.
"No matter how much you do, she won't be able to survive. Why do you have to sacrifice innocent people for revenge? Does it make sense? If you want to deal with Qin Hansheng, just deal with it brightly. Just knowing how to sacrifice a woman is nothing? Use Su Ruo, Shen Yi
, is this the only cheap trick you, Gu Haoran, can use?"
He was so angry that he clamped his cold fingers on her cheek and squeezed her cheek tightly, unspeakable anger suddenly welling up in his heart.
Xia Tong fearlessly confronted him coldly. After a while, he let go of his hand and fell to the side.
Xia Tong stabilized her chaotic breathing and asked, "Tell me, how did Mo Yuxi die that year?"
"..." He said nothing.
She continued to test: "Did Qin Hansheng kill him?"
"……."
"Still——." Xia Tong hesitated, "Or the cause of death was the same as Lin Manru's?" They were both killed and silenced by Qin Hansheng because they knew the evidence of drug trafficking.
"Xia Tong——." He suddenly turned his head to look at her: "I can tell you, but I want you to agree to a condition."
Xia Tong was surprised: "What conditions."
"Leave Qin Muxuan and be my woman." He said quietly.
