Gu Mei stiffened, her eyes widening in disbelief.
She couldnt believe that Gu Qingcheng was asking her who was behind the kidnapping.
The moment Gu Qingcheng asked this question, Gu Meis earlier thoughts of Gu Qingcheng being foolish seemed more like her own stupidity.
Gu Qingchengs questioning indicated that she doesnt believe a word she said, and she even suspected that someone was helping her with the kidnapping.
Big sister, what are you talking about? she feigned ignorance with a very ugly expression, I dont understand what youre saying.
Gu Qingchengs beautiful face was cold as ice, her slanted eyes sharp and piercing as she stared at the bodyguards and assassins ready to attack her.
Gu Meis words only intensified the murderous intent in Gu Qingchengs eyes, and the hand that had loosened around Gu Meis neck tightened once again.
It doesnt matter if you dont understand, I can remind you, Gu Qingcheng said coldly, moving Gu Mei towards the door as a hostage, No one in the entire Jiang Citys underworld would take your job to kidnap me, hence these foreign assassins are here. And you, a brainless fool, couldnt possibly know people from the international underworld. There must be someone helping you behind the scenes.
Gu Meis face changed drastically. She hadnt expected Gu Qingcheng to be so clever to deduce the person behind her from these foreign assassins.
Big sister you misunderstand, it really is a misunderstanding, I just came to pay the ransom to rescue you
You never paid any ransom because everything you said is a lie, Gu Qingcheng said with a piercing gaze, focusing on the bodyguards trying to rescue Gu Mei, Gu Mei, do you think by using Bai Sis fake call and then tricking me into going to the hospital to kidnap me, you could get what you wanted?
Gu Mei was startled.
You how did you
How did I find out about Bai Sis fake call, right? Gu Qingchengs hand on Gu Meis neck slowly tightened, Your mother Chu He must have told you that I had people protecting Gu Tianhao at the hospital. Since Im protecting Gu Tianhao, there are my bodyguards at the hospital. If Gu Tianhao was really dying, I wouldnt need Bai Si to contact me; those bodyguards would inform me first.
Gu Mei realized there was no point in pretending and lying to Gu Qingcheng anymore.
Since Gu Qingcheng already knew she was lying, she stopped pretending.
If you knew I was lying, why did you still come to the hospital? she asked, her doubts evident, Werent you afraid I would kill you then?
Gu Qingcheng felt a pain in her heart.
Why did she go to the hospital? Because Miss Li called Huo Sicheng late at night, and Miss Li was pregnant, a series of news that almost drove her insane.
Brokenhearted and in pain over Huo Sichengs betrayal, she found it hard to breathe.
It was the news of Miss Lis pregnancy that left her in turmoil and heartbroken. She planned to go to France with Huo Sicheng to meet this Miss Li.
Unable to bear being in the dark about Miss Li, she was in a state of confusion when she received Bai Sis call.
Hearing Bai Si say that Gu Tianhao was dying, she didnt think much and went straight to the hospital.
Afterward, she called Lu Chi angrily. Although Lu Chi had just woken up, he wouldnt lie to her.
If something happened to Gu Tianhao, she would be the first to know, followed by Lu Chi.
She has a quick temper, but it also subsides fast. After yelling at Lu Chi and hanging up, she had calmed down.
Because she had calmed down, she started to sense something was wrong.
If Gu Tianhao was dying, Lu Chi couldnt be unaware, and she wouldnt be ignored by the people sent by Huazhongjin. So there had to be something fishy.
At that moment, she realized she must have been set up, and then she felt danger approaching.
In a state of alert, her years of boxing had taught her how to anticipate harm in advance.
When the hand knife was chopping down towards her neck, she slightly tilted her head, so the hand knife didnt hit the spot that could knock her unconscious.
Even though she wasnt knocked out, the pain in her neck and dizziness made her eyes black out for a moment, and she pretended to fall to the ground.
With her eyes barely open, she saw a tall foreign man quickly carrying her to the back seat of a car in the underground parking lot.
She had the chance to fight back and escape when she was put into the car, but she didnt, knowing that those who kidnapped her didnt intend to kill her; otherwise, they would have done more than just knock her out.
So, she pretended to be knocked out, always looking out the window, and saw the car heading to the outskirts.
She wanted to contact Lu Chi for help, but her phone was taken away at the hospital, obviously to prevent her from being tracked.
The car took the highway and finally stopped in a nearly abandoned village in a valley, where she heard Gu Meis voice.
When Gu Mei saw her, Gu Qingcheng clearly saw the hatred in her eyes, but Gu Mei didnt do anything, just locked her in that extremely cold room.
She could have killed Gu Mei then, but she didnt.
Since Gu Mei dared to kidnap her with so many foreign men, even if she killed Gu Mei, there would still be hidden dangers. Therefore, she kept pretending to be unconscious, eventually waking up deliberately to seize the opportunity to find out who was helping Gu Mei behind the scenes.
But Gu Qingcheng didnt tell Gu Mei all this, she just said, You wouldnt kill me, because if I died, Huo Sicheng would avenge me, and you wouldnt survive! So you can capture me to threaten Huo Sicheng, resolve him first, then kill me!
Gu Mei was shocked, Gu Qingcheng had seen through her plan.
Its bad.
Qi Shaoze must not appear.
She couldnt let Gu Qingcheng discover Qi Shaozes existence, otherwise, she would be as good as dead.
As long as she didnt confess Qi Shaoze was working with her, Gu Qingcheng wouldnt kill her to find out who was behind her.
After all, if she died, the person behind her wouldnt let Gu Qingcheng off.
Gu Qingcheng wanted a permanent solution; unless she found out who was helping her and killed them, as long as she kept silent, she could survive.
I dont know what youre talking about, she stubbornly feigned ignorance, quickly signaling the assassins, hoping they could either subdue Gu Qingcheng or inform Qi Shaoze to leave quickly and avoid being discovered by Gu Qingcheng.
You know what Im talking about, Gu Qingcheng told Gu Mei coldly, Pretending to be dumb is useless. If you want to live, its better to confess honestly.
Gu Mei clenched her teeth, hating Gu Qingcheng to death.
Why did fate let a person like Gu Qingcheng live!
What made her feel that fate was blind was why she couldnt outsmart Gu Qingcheng every time she schemed.
She refused to accept defeat to Gu Qingcheng.
But at this moment, she didnt know how to save herself, facing Gu Qingcheng helplessly.
Confess? she spoke, What do you want me to confess?
