Chapter 7: Am I Going to be Hit to Death?

Mrs. Xu, who was calling the police in the living room, heard a flurry of hurried footsteps and turned her head just in time to see Gu Qiangwei rushing out of the front door!

"Miss!"

After hanging up the phone, Mrs. Xu was about to follow her but heard Gu Shijie's cries of agony coming from upstairs.

...

The night was terrifyingly silent.

Gu Qiangwei did not know how long she had been running, dragging her disheveled body aimlessly, her eyes vacant, like an empty shell that had lost its soul.

Her pink pajamas were dyed red with fresh blood, the collar torn, already in disarray. Even now, the hand that clutched the torn collar was still trembling.

Mengqi followed closely behind her.

At eleven o'clock at night, there were hardly any pedestrians on the road.

"Squeak—"

Suddenly a sharp screeching of brakes sounded, piercing the tranquil night!

It was then that Gu Qiangwei suddenly came to her senses, looked up, and was met with a blinding white light. Instinctively, she raised her hand and saw a black Lincoln speeding towards her!

In that moment, Gu Qiangwei's mind went blank. Was she... about to be killed?

Early morning.

The next thing she knew, she was in a strange room.

On a grand European soft bed, Gu Qiangwei slowly opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was a luxurious crystal chandelier hanging directly above her, incredibly opulent and dazzling.

Where was this?

Gu Qiangwei's first instinct was to sit up and try to get a clearer look around the unfamiliar room.

"Awake?"

Suddenly, a deep voice broke the silence of the room, sounding almost heavenly.

Gu Qiangwei turned her head instinctively and saw a figure lounging casually on the sofa.

Looking at that somewhat familiar handsome face, Gu Qiangwei frowned, and a rush of memories flooded her mind.

It was him!

"What, what are you doing here?" Gu Qiangwei demanded, clutching the thin blanket defensively.

Her wary gaze seemed to annoy Qin Sijue.

He abruptly stood up, approached the bed like a dark night emperor, and looked down imposingly at the woman on the bed, exuding a dangerous aura that could make anyone cower.

Faced with the man's oppressive approach, Gu Qiangwei instinctively shrank back.

Suddenly, the man leaned over, his dangerous face suddenly close, pressing towards Gu Qiangwei.

"What… do you want to do?"

"Tell you something."

"What?"

Facing the man's deep, cold eyes, Gu Qiangwei felt a vague sense of unease.

"You are the first woman who has seen my body."

She frowned suspiciously, silently saying to herself: Didn't your mother ever see you when you were a child?

"So?"

"How do you want to die?"

"…" It was just an accidental glimpse of his body, was it necessary to be like this?

This man must be involved in the underworld!

"I don't want to die!"

"Not up to you."

"It's just a body, do you have to be so serious about it? Besides, you were wearing underwear! I didn't see anything!"

"If you didn't see, how are you sure I was wearing underwear?"

"…" Because you were wearing it, that's why I didn't see anything!

Of course, she dared not say this out loud.

"You are not a woman, why… be so petty!"

Petty? This damned woman!

Qin Sijue was about to explode in anger when there was a knock on the door.

"Mr. Qin, Young Master Li has arrived," said assistant Luo Chen as he walked in.

Shortly after, another figure darted in.
