Chapter 24: Punish You

August 23, 20XX (Friday)

Ristorante Miracle and On the car to Country A airport

In the private room,

Song Yu and Gu Chen was still hugging when Gu Chen's phone rang, Gu Chen reluctantly let go of Song Yu after he kissed her forehead. Gu Chen went out of the room to pick up the call. Song Yu sat on the chair thinking about what just happen.

She did not think that she would ever fall in love again and also very mess up in whether is she in love with Gu Chen. She worried that Gu Chen is same as any other men, who just want to have s*x and throw away after getting what they want. Song Yu thought maybe she should give Gu Chen a chance and not dwell on the past anymore.

----------

"President Gu, one of our model in London had a car accident and it seems that the car accident is not as simple as an accident." Ye Xun reported to Gu Chen.

"Make the preparations, we'll be leaving for London in 2 hours time."

Meanwhile in the private room when Gu Chen is having a call outside, Song Yu phone rang. She answered the call after the last ring.

Straight after the call got through, the caller reported to Song Yu. "Ariela, all the preparations are made. We are ready to go to Japan anytime from now." Zachary said to Song Yu.

"Got it, I am currently at Ristorante Miracle. Bring me some clothes to change." Song Yu instructed before hanging up the call.

After the call, Gu Chen went into the room and found Song Yu busy talking to someone on the phone . Hence, he did not want to disturb and started drinking some wine and eating some food. When he saw Song Yu ended the call, he asked "Who was that?".

Song Yu looked at Gu Chen before saying "My friend".

"Guy or Girl?" Gu Chen was starting to get more and more possessive over Song Yu.

"Guy" Song Yu didn't find anything wrong in telling Gu Chen about Zachary.

The temperature around Song Yu became cold, "What did he say?".

"Nothing, just some work matter. And I need to go in about 30 minutes." Song Yu informed Gu Chen.

Gu Chen wasn't happy that Song Yu had to work even when it is so late but he himself was also working late himself. "I send you there later."

"Don't need, someone is fetching me."

Gu Chen was getting more and more angry, after he heard what Song Yu said he stopped eating and looked at Song Yu angrily. "You're going out with a man this late at night?".

Song Yu found Gu Chen quite adorable when he is possessive and jealous, "Gu Chen, can you trust me."

"It's Chen and I trust you but i don't trust him. I respect your decision but can you at least tell me where are you going?"

"To the airport"

"I'll send you there" Gu Chen did not ask any further as he can see that Song Yu was at the peak already, anytime she's going to erupt.

"No I'm going by myself." Song Yu insist.

"I'm also going to the airport, something happen and i need to fly to London for work matters."

"Oh" Song Yu kept silence and continue eating her food.

Seeing that Song Yu did not argue with him anymore, he quickly texted Ye Xun that they would be going in 30 more minutes. Making Ye Xun had to quickly make the preparations.

----------

After they finish eating, Gu Chen and Song Yu fought over who to pay the bill. Song Yu insist on paying the bill and Gu Chen too. In the end Gu Chen won, he persuaded Song Yu about the relationship stories.

When Zachary arrive in his black Rolls Royce Ghost, he texted Song Yu that he had reached and asked her to come down. Upon noticing Song Yu, Zachary came out of the car wanting to open the door for Song Yu. Zac was wearing a simple black checkered suit jacket and a white shirt and suit pants pair with a back Manic flat brogues. Looking cool and handsome, he have a dark black hair and defined nose and thick brows, thin lips and round black eyes. His aura is different from Gu Chen's cold and aloof type. His aura is made people comfortable and relax around him.

He opened the back seat for Song Yu waiting for her to get in, when he saw Gu Chen. He frowned and thought to himself, 'is Mr Gu following us? when did Ariela and Mr Gu get so close?. When Ariela and Gu Chen was in front of him already, he asked.

"Ariela, is Mr Gu following us?" Zachary asked Song Yu, confuse apparent on his face.

"Hmph" Song Yu thought about Gu Chen insisting in driving her there and also paying the bill made her extremely unhappy as he ignored Zachary question and got into car, leaving the two man by themselves. Zachary looked towards Gu Chen giving him the question mark look and Gu Chen just shrugged his shoulders and got into the passenger seat too. Leaving the puzzled Zachary alone.

Zachary too shrugged his shoulders and did a whatever sign before getting into the drivers seat and sped off.

----------

Inside the car, Zachary was focusing on the road while Gu Chen and Song Yu got busy themselves. Gu Chen was busy talking on the phone and Song Yu was busy sending text messages not bothering about the person next to her.

Ring....Ring.....Song Yu's phone rang, She picked up the call.

"Hello?" Song Yu answered.

"Ariela, Qiao Lin is awake. When are you coming to see her?" Asked Yvonne.

"In a few days, after I am done with my things in Country A. How is she now, pass the phone to her, i wanna speak to her." Song Yu was concerned about her best friend Qiao Lin, she was sad that she couldn't be by Qiao Lin side when she wakes up due to work matters.

"Yue! I..I couldn't protect myself from those guys." Qiao Lin sulked and cried to Song Yu.

"Lin it's fine, not always you can protect yourself from people. I'm sorry i couldn't protect you in time." Song Yu clenched her fist when she heard Qiao Lin cried and she tried to control herself from flying to Country Z and see Qiao Lin now.

"Yue, I am scared. Can you be by my side?" Qiao Lin was in need of Song Yu's comfort.

Song Yu really did not have the time to visit Qiao Lin as she had a lot of things to attend to, but after hearing Qiao Lin needed her. She knew her best friend was really in need of her now, as she had been friends with Qiao Lin since young and knew about Qiao Lin's temper and habits well. She knew Qiao Lin may be a strong and cheerful girl but she is fragile in the inside. Qiao Lin would only show her fragile and spoiled brat sight to her close ones and that includes Song Yu.

Song Yu contemplated the pros and cons before deciding that visiting Qiao Lin then fly to Japan afterwards would not affect much. Hence decided to go find Qiao Lin. "Sure, I am free now. I come and find you now but i will reach at about morning 5 am. Be strong and wait for me Kay." Song Yu coax Qiao Lin.

"Hmm, I'll wait for you. Yue thank You." Qiao Lin knew that Song Yu was busy right then but she really needed Song Yu by her side.

"Welcome, have a rest first. Lin, pass the phone back to Yvonne."

"Ariela, you're coming here" Aren't you heading to Japan now?" Yvonne was puzzled by Song Yu.

"Yea, I'll go after I visit Lin. Yvonne, i need you to go to Japan and meet with Riku first. Tell him i will come later. Zac will be there too but i have other things for him to do so just help him when needed."

"Noted, then I'll proceed now. You take care of your body, don't tire yourself out" Yvonne was concerned about Song Yu as she knows that Song Yu tend to tire herself out.

"Hm, thanks Yvonne." Song Yu said in a gentle tone, feeling warmth that she had caring friends around her.

After the call ended, Gu Chen was concern yet angry at Song Yu for not caring about her body. He turned towards Song Yu before staring at her intently as if wanting to bore a hole into Song Yu. Sensing someone staring at her, she turned towards the man before raising her eyebrows at the angry man beside her.

"What are you looking at?" Asked the annoyed Song Yu.

"I'm looking at a fool" Gu Chen looked at Song Yu as though he was looking at something unknown.

"You are the fool!, Hmph!" Song Yu was in disbelieved that someone actually call the boss of Z.D.Y Corp and SHADOWS a fool.

She did not bother about Gu Chen and just looked towards Zachary and said, "Zac, as you just heard. I'll be going to visit Lin first, prepare another jet for me at 10 in the morning. You will go to japan first and handle the stuff that i told you to do first, Yvonne will be there too. Oh lastly before i forget, get someone to drive my Audi TT Coupe and leave it at my house first."

"Got it" Zachary knew that whatever he say would go to deaf as he knew that once Song Yu made a decision already she would never change it.

"If you tire yourself, I'm going to punish you." Gu Chen said provocatively at Song Yu.

Song Yu wanted to argue with Gu Chen when she saw that Gu Chen was serious and concerned about her through his eyes. "Whatever" She answered as she look out at the window. Pleased at Song Yu's reply, he stretched out his right hand before pulling Song Yu into his embrace.

Shocked Song Yu wanted to push Gu Chen away when that man say, "Sleep, I'll wake you up when we reach."

Song Yu did not know why but smelling Gu Chen's masculine scent and warmth, she felt secured and safe. She fluttered her eyes before gradually falling asleep in Gu Chen's embrace. After Gu Chen felt that Song Yu's breathing became calm and stable, he slowly took out his suit jacket and pulled Song Yu on his lap not wanting to wake her up. When Song Yu is successfully on his lap he place Song Yu's head on his chest before draping the suit jacket on Song Yu and hugged her tightly to sleep.

Zachary who was all along looking at the scene unfold did not know what to say, he could see the adoration and gentleness in the man's eyes. He could not believe the cold and aloof Gu Chen could be so gentle. Zachary did not want to look anymore, hence he put up the partition and continue focusing on the road.
