BXBX NOVEL Chapter 54 - 74: Cannot Show Weakness
Yao Rong looked in the direction the car had left, a hint of confusion in her heart.
“Why have people been targeting you lately? Should we call the police?”
On hearing this, Gu Chuyan reached out to squeeze Yao Rong’s cheek, staring at her earnest expression. She said, “If calling the police worked, why would we need bodyguards?”
They both stood in the middle of the road, looking at each other, each deep in thought.
Everyone had been frightened by what had just happened, but they were all trying hard to remain calm, afraid that if they panicked, the others would too.
Suddenly, there was a screech from not far away, and a sedan was racing towards them.
The car was moving incredibly fast, heading straight for the two of them. Startled, Gu Chuyan instinctively stepped in front of Yao Rong, but Yao Rong pulled her back.
The scraping sound of the tires against the road was so sharp it pierced the ear.
The blinding light hit their eyes, causing Gu Chuyan to raise her hand to shield them, just as the car hit her.
Just when it was only lcm away from Gu Chuyan, the car halted.
The takeaway boxes on the ground had been run over by the car. The crayfish inside had been crushed, and the spicy seasoning had spilled out, red like blood.
The car door opened, and a figure emerged – dressed in black leather shorts paired with red high heels, a leather jacket, and a pair of black sunglasses.
She stepped out elegantly, her high heels clicking against the pavement. She swayed her hips and walked towards Gu Chuyan, removing her sunglasses as she approached.
Gu Miaoting stifle the discomfort in her body. (The author scorned her: “Not suffering from bowel discomfort now?” Gu Miaoting raised her hand to slap him. “If not for you, would I be in such a dire situation?”)
“Enjoying this?” Gu Miaoting’s voice pulled them back to reality.
Upon seeing her, Yao Rong flew into a rage. She pushed forward and shoved Gu
Miaoting back. “Gu Miaoting, have you no shame? Why do you keep framing
Chuyan?”
Glancing at Yao Rong’s hand, Miaoting grabbed her wrist, “Tsk tsk, such an ugly hand, and you dare to push me?”
With that, she pushed Yao Rong back a step.
Upon seeing her, Gu Chuyan took a few deep breaths while staring intently at her face.
Tonight when she had cornered Xie Tianli, it was Miaoting’s voice on the other end of the phone call she had made with Xie Tianli’s cell phone.
“Why are you looking at me like that, Chuyan? Stop pretending to be innocent!” Gu Miaoting glared at her with her sinister, dark eyes, as if she wanted to tear
Chuyan apart.
She had someone look into it but they couldn’t find out who did it! She suspected that it had to be Chuyan’s doing. Who else would dare go against her?
“Do you know why I didn’t run you over? I enjoy this feeling, seeing you angry, watching you in pain! Watching you enviously as your father dotes on me, while you can’t get a shred of his attention!”
Gu Chuyan looked up at her smiling face.
“What’s that? You can’t take it? Then hit me!” Gu Miaoting said, but did not continue.
A smile crept onto Chuyan’s face as she raised her hand and slapped Miaoting’s face twice. There was a clear smack each time.
“You… You actually dared to hit me?” Miaoting was in disbelief. In her mind, Chuyan was always a reserved and dignified woman who would never lay a hand on her.
“Yes, I slapped you! How does it feel, it hurts, right?” Chuyan grabbed her arm fiercely, pinching her skin firmly.
Thinking back to a week before, when Miaoting had deliberately provoked her at the café, leading her to the edge of life and death. This woman’s tricks were utterly shameless. It made one’s teeth itch with anger, yet one was helpless to retaliate..
