"I... my body?"
"Yes. Your body. Will you give it, or not?"
"Give... I'll give." Without a moment's hesitation, Gu Dandan nodded vigorously, her eyes wide with a mixture of fear and determination.
Gu Ao gave a cold snort, his expression unreadable as he turned and walked away, leaving Gu Dandan standing there alone, her heart pounding in her chest.
...
The next day, Gu Ao drove Gu Dandan to school. As she got out of the car, her voice trembled with anxiety. "You... do you want..."
"None of your business." Turning off the engine, Gu Ao prepared to get out of the car, his tone brusque and impatient.
"Forget it..." Gu Dandan moved aside, trying to block Gu Ao from exiting. Her hands shook slightly, betraying her inner turmoil.
"Get out of the way!"
"Mr. Gu, I think it's better if..."
"Move! Out of the way!" His voice was sharp, brooking no argument.
Just then, Gu Dandan noticed a male classmate running towards her from a distance...
"Look! Gu Stupid, with an old man! Gu Stupid, with an old man! Gu Stupid is married to an old man!" Three or four boys rushed up, their laughter cruel and mocking.
"You... hurry up and leave!" Gu Dandan urged Gu Ao anxiously, her voice cracking with desperation. She turned and ran, her heart racing with fear.
"Hold it! Gu Stupid!" The boys surrounded her, their faces twisted with malice. "Haha, where will you run?" One of the boys grabbed Gu Dandan's arm, his grip tight and painful.
"Let go." Gu Ao's cold eyes swept over the children, his presence commanding immediate respect and fear.
"Who... who are you!?" A boy boldly asked, though his voice wavered with uncertainty.
"Her old man," Gu Ao blurted out, his words cutting through the air like a whip.
An eerie silence fell over the scene, heavy with tension and unspoken threats...
"Run, quick!" The boys scattered into the school gate in a flash, their bravado evaporating in the face of Gu Ao's icy demeanor.
"Thank... thank you." Gu Dandan's cheeks flushed red, her gratitude palpable. He... he said he was her man. She vaguely understood what that meant, a mix of confusion and hope swirling within her.
"Take me to your classroom."
"What?"
"To your classroom!" Gu Ao's impatience was clear. Why did every sentence need to be repeated twice?
...
Gu Dandan obediently led Gu Ao to her classroom. Gu Ao held her small hand as they entered. Gu Dandan felt a jolt of warmth and security; his hand was so large and warm. How long had it been since someone had held her hand? Seven years... since her father passed away.
The bustling classroom instantly quieted down, the students' chatter dying away as they sensed the tension between Gu Ao and Gu Dandan. Gu Ao pulled Gu Dandan to the front of the room. "Tell me, who has bullied you."
"What..."
"Point them out."
"What...?"
Gu Dandan looked at Gu Ao, her eyes filled with doubt. Was he crazy? Once he left, she would inevitably face another round of bullying. He could help for a moment, but what about after he was gone? Besides, there were more than just one or two people who had bullied her...
"Do as I say!"
At that moment, the boys who often bullied Gu Dandan trembled with fear. Gu Dandan mustered her courage and walked down, her legs feeling weak beneath her. She heard whispers among some of the girls around her, "So handsome!", "Who is he?"
That day, Gu Ao did something incredibly foolish for the first time in his twenty-five years. He sternly scolded those boys and even involved the principal. In front of the entire class, holding Gu Dandan's hand, he declared, "Anyone who dares to bully her, try it and see!"
For others, these actions might seem trivial, but this was Gu Ao, a man whose presence commanded respect wherever he went. Everyone bowed before him, and with his powerful and influential parents, such a man would actually forsake his prestigious status for a girl, dealing with such petty matters. It was unprecedented!
Gu Dandan looked at him with eyes full of gratitude, murmuring silently, Gu Ao... Gu Ao. She felt a glimmer of hope for the first time in a long while.
...
When school ended, Gu Ao still sent someone to wait at the school gate to pick up Gu Dandan. Returning home past midnight, after showering and eating, she still hadn't seen Gu Ao. Not until around two in the morning did Gu Ao return home with a woman...
Gu Dandan's room was on the first floor near the entrance. She peeked through the crack in the door and saw a shocking scene... Gu Ao pressed the woman against the wall corner, biting her lips forcefully. She even saw the woman's exposed chest... Gu Dandan gasped, her eyes nearly popping out, her heart sinking with a strange mix of disappointment and betrayal.
"Come out." Gu Ao noticed Gu Dandan out of the corner of his eye, his voice devoid of emotion.
"Gu..." Gu Dandan confirmed Gu Ao was calling her. She hesitantly stepped out of her room, her legs trembling.
"Snooping? Want to join?"
"I'm sorry..."
"Go back inside and close the door!" Gu Ao barked at Gu Dandan, his tone harsh and unforgiving.
"Ao, who is this little girl?" The woman in Gu Ao's arms coquettishly asked.
"It's none of your concern." Gu Ao coldly replied, his focus entirely on Gu Dandan.
Their passionate embrace continued right outside Gu Dandan's door. She heard many strange sounds, her mind reeling with conflicting emotions. That night, she couldn't sleep, haunted by the images she had witnessed.
Later, she realized that Gu Ao had many women. Every few days, he would bring different women home. Sometimes in the spacious living room, sometimes in his bedroom, Gu Dandan always heard strange noises...
Once, unable to resist, she secretly approached Gu Ao's bedroom door. It wasn't closed, and she witnessed a scene that still terrified her. Gu Ao and the woman, both naked, tightly embraced each other, writhing continuously...
Every time she saw Gu Ao bring women home, she felt extremely uncomfortable, a deep ache settling in her heart.
