Arrogant CEO Bullies His Wife - C287
“There are some knockout drugs in the wine, but you’ve learned to be smart now.” When he saw Gu Ruoyun drink that cup of wine, he hurriedly followed her, afraid that she would fall into someone else’s hands. However, when he saw that she actually spat out the wine, he felt slightly relieved.
In this sort of situation, it was normal for a beautiful woman to be drugged. If the other party had set their sights on someone and the other party didn’t want to accept it, then it was normal for them to have a one-night stand. However, He Luo was also surprised that Gu Ruoqing had been drugged. However, after some investigation, he found that there was indeed something wrong with tonight’s banquet.
“It can’t be?” Gu Ruoyun looked at the wine she just spat out. She was startled, as the river water would never lie to her. So, that person called George wanted to drug her? Thinking of this, she was startled. Fortunately, she didn’t drink.
Although she was clear why men drugged women, Gu Ruoyun didn’t expect such a day to come. She was tricked by Leng Lian City for the first time, which was why today’s situation could no longer end.
“What are you going to do?” When He Luo saw that Gu Ruoyun seemed to have lost a lot of weight, he wanted to care for her for a while. However, he suddenly realized that she seemed to have grown up quite a bit.
Seeing that her eyes were no longer as pure as they were in the past, she thought to herself, after experiencing so much, who would be willing to live an innocent life and not fight against the world?
“Let’s do it.” Gu Ruoyun’s small hand clenched into a fist as she raised her head to look at the stars in the sky. It was so far away that she seemed untouchable, but when she extended her hand to cover her eyes, it seemed as if the entire sky was covered.
Everything happened so naturally, as though she would never be able to escape from the grasp of others. However, Gu Ruoyun would never wish for others to control her own destiny, and at this moment, even more so, it made her want to resist.
She didn’t have much time left. It was already early in the morning, and she still had a day. But time quickly passed, and she had no reason to stay any longer.
“I’ve seen the locations of the bodyguards around here, as well as the other arrangements.” He Luo lowered his head and whispered in Gu Ruoyun’s ear.
As Gu Ruoyun listened, her face slightly changed, but she didn’t say anything. She stood here for a long time, and finally, what she learned in the organization came in handy today, but she was filled with mixed feelings.
“Walk from here. Go to the other balcony. There he is.” He knew that Gu Ruoqing would succeed. As a member of an internal organization, he knew that Gu Ruoyun was outstanding. However, her weakness made him want to protect her, but it did not affect his evaluation of her strength.
“Alright, take note of it yourself.” She quickly turned around and climbed over another balcony, her movements quick and agile. When He Luo saw Gu Ruoyun’s actions, he couldn’t help but to nod his head and follow behind her, disappearing at the same time.
Not long after, George strode over, expecting to see Gu Ruoyun fall here. However, the moment he arrived, he was struck dumb. This place was empty; there was nothing here, not to mention a person.
He looked around and found that there was no trace of her, and it was impossible for her to escape. He watched as she drank the wine.
When he looked around, he found that Ruo Zi Xuan and Leng Liancheng were talking, and the two of them were not in a good mood. He did not dare to alarm Ruo Zi Xuan, so he could only search in the dark, and Gu Ruoyun must not let her escape tonight. Otherwise, Ruo Zi Xuan would be disappointed in him, and this would mean that he could no longer stay by her side.
Although Ruo Zixuan had a relationship with him, he was more clear that she was a rational woman who valued men’s strength more. If tonight’s plan failed, it meant that he would disappear after tonight.
“What happened? “It depends on how anxious you are.” An Lan sat in a corner and walked out. She hadn’t participated in any of the banquets tonight, but she had come to help.
Three days ago, Ruo Zi Xuan had someone invite her over. She and Ruo Zi Xuan had talked for six hours, and no one knew what they were talking about.
However, An Lan knew in her heart that what Zi Xuan said was all true. If a woman didn’t live for her own sake, then she would be looked down upon. Besides, no matter how high she stood, if you were still a toy in someone else’s hands, then all the sacrifices made would be worthless.
An Lan was a restless person. She could not allow herself to be worse than anyone else, and she also did not like being ordered around by others. Of course, the current her was more accomplished than Gu Ruoqing, Bi Xue, and He Luo. As for the leader, she was the only one left by her side.
Su An’s betrayal made the leader think even more highly of her. Currently, her status was already above ten thousand within the organisation. If there was a lower ranked person, she wouldn’t be willing to accept it. Although he was stronger than Gu Ruoyun and Bi Xue, he had to obey the leader’s orders. One phone call, one message, and one order from him was enough for her to take his life.
She had lost her love for her goal, and the river seemed to have disappeared. She had not seen him since that night.
Now that she had chosen to cooperate with Ruo Zi Xuan from inside and outside, even if she submitted to him, it did not mean that she would be able to follow him wholeheartedly. The current An Lan was no longer the same person who only had ambitions, but she was now able to become strong on her own, and her ambitions could be set in many different places.
The greater the ambition, the stronger the desire.
“Gu Ruoyun has disappeared.” George looked at An Lan. He looked around and saw no one else, but tonight’s operation was a collaboration between him and An Lan.
She was sitting in a chair with her legs crossed as she drank coffee. Although she was anxious, the current her was no longer like before, as long as she was anxious, she could charge forward. As for the calm and rational her, she seemed to be more mature, able to quietly think for a few minutes, analyze things, and then move again.
As she sipped her coffee, she lifted her eyes a little, lifted her long legs, loosened her muscles, and blew on the hot coffee smoke.
“It’s hard for her to fly tonight, so there must be something wrong with your medicine at this banquet, right?” An Lan put down her coffee cup and looked at George reproachfully. Although he was one of Ruo Zi Xuan’s men and had a certain amount of power, he was not one of hers. She had never trusted him before.
Of course, even though they had only known each other for a few days, she had discovered a problem. Although this man was an outstanding bodyguard, his relationship with Ruo Zixuan was not simple.
“Impossible.” George could feel that she didn’t trust him. He didn’t really believe An Lan either. After all, this was the first time the two of them were working together, and she and Gu Ruoyun were friends.
