Ruan Anlan's heartbeat became more and more violent, as if it would beat out of her chest in the next second.
"You, you, you...let me go! We signed a contract. You can't touch me without my permission!"
"So what? You think it's just a contract. I, Gu Tingyuan, would care about that?" Gu Tingyuan didn't think so.
He looked at Ruan Anlan's profile and his pupils shrank violently.
Gu Tingyuan's originally handsome and cold face was now half-dark, half exposed to the sun, while the other half was immersed in the boundless night, with a deep chill.
His obsidian-black eyes seemed to ignite a faint fire.
In the endless cold nights, it confuses people.
Ruan Anlan bit her lip, feeling embarrassed and scared at the same time.
She had never seen Gu Tingyuan with such a sense of oppression.
It was as if he had taken off the shell that pretended to be calm and self-possessed, revealing the real him.
Dangerous, bad.
But it's so heartwarming.
Ruan Anlan didn't dare to look at Gu Tingyuan's face at all. She didn't know what was wrong with her. She was scared and palpitating, and she couldn't control her heart at all.
But she knew very well that Gu Tingyuan would not hurt her.
"Gu Tingyuan...don't be like this...I...I'm scared."
She just had never seen such a dangerous and unfamiliar Gu Tingyuan, it was like he was a different person, even his eyes were different.
Gu Tingyuan looked deeply at Ruan Anlan, at her slightly trembling body, at her nervous and frightened expression, pursed her lips tightly, and said nothing. She didn't know what she was thinking, as if she had fallen into a nightmare.
After a long time, Gu Tingyuan suddenly let go of his hand, stopped looking at Ruan Anlan, and left the room silently without saying a word.
It took a long time for Ruan Anlan to react after she was freed. She sat up blankly and looked at the closed door. Her memory was still stuck in Gu Tingyuan's unfamiliar eyes five minutes ago.
Gu Tingyuan...what happened?
"Ding dong--" The doorbell rang suddenly, instantly pulling Ruan Anlan back from her thoughts.
She thought it was Gu Tingyuan who had left and returned. After hesitating for a moment, she opened the door and was about to speak when she raised her head and saw Shen Zhicheng's hypocritical face.
"Why are you here?" Ruan Anlan asked coldly.
Ruan Anlan's prickly attitude made Shen Zhicheng feel dazed for a moment.
When he and Ruan Anlan were together in the past, although there were no overly sweet moments, Ruan Anlan was always as gentle as water to him.
He has never been like this before. He is like a hedgehog, with all the thorns on his body standing up, leaving him with only defense and disgust.
Shen Zhicheng couldn't adapt for a moment. Looking at Ruan Anlan's beautiful face, his heart felt empty.
In a flash, Shen Zhicheng suddenly remembered the purpose of coming here today, and his expression became solemn.
Shen Zhicheng: "An Lan, is that you?"
Ruan Anlan was puzzled: "What? What I don't own is mine, please speak clearly."
Shen Zhicheng took a deep breath: "Did you ask Gu Tingyuan to release the dirty information about HSBC, not allow any media to accept the Shen family's request for cooperation, and cancel those negative news... Were all these your doings?"
Ruan Anlan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed at himself: "So that's why you came here?"
Shen Zhicheng frowned: "An Lan..."
Ruan Anlan raised her hand and interrupted Shen Zhicheng impatiently, "Don't call me that. You don't deserve it. Also, you think too highly of yourself."
