Chapter 34: A Passerby in a CEO Romance Novel (34)
The two sides were locked in a standoff, but their eyes were actually on Le Yan.
Gu Yunting reached out to her: "Leyan, come here to me."
Rong Jing stood calmly, not worried at all that Le Yan would leave his side.
A cryptic smile played on his lips, which Shen Mubai noticed, and he seemed lost in thought.
"Young Master Rong is so calm, has he brainwashed Le Yan with some kind of magic?"
Shen Mubai frowned slightly, looking troubled, and said with some melancholy, "What should we do? Leyan, do you trust him but not your boyfriend?"
The spearhead was aimed directly at Le Yan.
Gu Yunting paused, slowly lowering his hand. A hint of hurt flashed in his eyes as he looked at Le Yan with a bitter expression. His lips moved slightly, "Le Yan, you..."
He seemed afraid to speak.
Le Yan touched her wrist, then looked down with some hesitation.
After a while, he finally stepped out from behind Rong Jing and, as if he had made up his mind, said to Gu Yunting, "Gu Yunting, come here, I have something to ask you."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yunting's eyes lit up, and he immediately walked towards Le Yan.
Shen Mubai and You Wenwen wanted to follow, but Le Yan immediately waved her hands in a panic, "You two stand there! Don't move!"
She resisted so strongly that Shen Mubai and You Wenwen had no choice but to stand still and watch Gu Yunting run happily toward Leyan.
Even their backs radiated an undeniable joy, making the two of them feel a pang of sadness.
Le Yan pulled Gu Yunting aside for a private chat, while Rong Jing watched leisurely, showing no curiosity what they were going to say.
Shen Mubai, on the other hand, stared intently, trying to understand what they were saying by reading their lips.
Unfortunately, Gu Yunting had his back to them, completely blocking Le Yan's body without leaving any gaps. After staring at her for a while, Shen Mubai gave up.
Meanwhile, Le Yan was asking Gu Yunting with a serious expression, "I'm asking you, did you reach some kind of agreement with those two?"
Before Gu Yunting could even ask Le Yan how she had been these past few days, he was stunned by her question.
With a "buzz" in his mind, Gu Yunting subconsciously glanced at Rong Jing and saw him smiling happily, then he understood everything.
His heart sank, and a sense of panic began to rise within him.
"Le...Leyan, I..." he stammered, unable to speak a complete sentence.
Seeing his expression, Le Yan immediately understood, "You really did go with them—"
Le Yan couldn't finish her sentence. She was so angry that she glared at Gu Yunting and said, "You dog of a man, we're breaking up!"
Are you kidding me?!
They want N that P, but she doesn't!
In the novel, she hisses and snorts, but in reality, all she wants to say is "Damn it."
After angrily declaring "Let's break up," Le Yan refused to speak to Gu Yunting anymore.
Between two evils, choose the lesser. She now feels that being imprisoned by Rong Jing is actually quite good, since apart from preventing her from contacting the outside world, Rong Jing hasn't done anything to her.
But if Gu Yunting and his group take them away...
Le Yan felt a shiver run through her heart and hugged her chubby self with heartache.
Her 100-pound frame couldn't withstand that kind of torment.
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. All she could think about was being with Rong Jing, who made her feel safe. So she angrily tried to shake off... but she couldn't shake off Gu Yunting's hand.
She struggled fiercely, shouting, "Let go! Let go of me!"
Her wrists were tightly gripped, and her originally fair skin instantly turned red. Le Yan used both hands, but she still couldn't pry Gu Yunting off.
At this moment, Gu Yunting's mind was filled with only the word "breakup".
His eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at Le Yan. "I won't break up with you."
“No difference!”
He knew what Leyan was angry about, so he quickly explained, "Baby, listen to me, that was just a temporary measure. I won't hand you over to them, okay?"
Gu Yunting wasn't talking nonsense; he was indeed playing a temporary expedient.
Shen Mubai and You Wenwen must have known what he was thinking, but everyone was just putting on a fake smile and cooperating.
Divide? Share?
Don't be ridiculous, they all just want to have it all to themselves.
They would kill anyone given the chance.
Gu Yunting gripped Le Yan tightly with both hands, his gaze so focused it seemed somewhat unfocused. "Trust me, trust me, okay?"
Le Yan stood stiffly, looking at Gu Yunting, who was completely infatuated, and felt a deep-seated resistance and fear.
This guy seems a bit crazier than the others, what should I do?!
Whether it was with Rong Jing or with Jiang Yanzhe, the sickly boy described in the book, Le Yan had never felt such a fierce and rampant sense of danger.
Her intuition warned her that driving Gu Yunting mad would do her no good.
To put it bluntly, Gu Yunting will do to the very end what Rong Jing wouldn't do to her.
A sudden tightness gripped her heart, and Le Yan swallowed fearfully before stammering, "I...I believe you, I believe you, okay? Please...please let go? It hurts..."
Her wrist must be bruised.
for sure!
Not daring to look directly at her pitiful and miserable wrist, Le Yan wanted to cry but had no tears.
Hearing what she wanted to hear, Gu Yunting felt relieved. Seeing the pain on her face, he quickly loosened his grip. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, baby. I didn't mean to."
He apologized, but his hand didn't loosen its grip at all; he merely lightened his grip and stopped trying to hold on tightly.
Le Yan tentatively tried to pull her hand away, but Gu Yunting reacted quickly and tightened his grip, making it impossible for her to pull away.
"Can you let go of me?" As soon as she was let go, she took off running.
Looking up at Gu Yunting with her little face, Le Yan made a plan in her mind for a while.
Gu Yunting kept his eyes fixed on her and slowly shook his head. "I won't let go."
If you loosen your grip, the person will be gone.
The word "breakup" was still weighing heavily on his mind.
Seeing Le Yan's open and covert trust and reliance on Rong Jing, and knowing that even though she had been imprisoned by Rong Jing for several days, she had not harbored any resentment, Gu Yunting was even less able to let her go to Rong Jing's place.
He coaxed softly, "Baby, stay with me and I'll take you back to Jiangcheng right now, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Le Yan's vision went black. She quickly turned her head and looked at Rong Jing for help, almost screaming for her life.
Rong Jing had been paying attention to the two of them, and upon seeing Le Yan like this, he quickly stepped forward.
But Shen Mubai and You Wenwen were like two roadblocks, directly blocking Rong Jing's path.
"Young Master Rong, let's not go over there and disturb this young couple's time together."
Shen Mubai smiled enchantingly, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.
You Wenwen didn't say anything, but simply stopped Rong Jing from going over.
Looking at the two despicable women in front of him, Rong Jing's expression was cold.
He flexed his wrists, said nothing, and immediately took action.
He doesn't care about gender; he'll hit anyone who tries to stop him.
You Wenwen is skilled in martial arts; after all, her family, the You family, has a history of involvement in organized crime, and without some martial arts skills, they wouldn't have survived to this age.
But Shen Mubai is weak. He's all brains and no brains. He's good at scalpels and computers, but when it comes to fighting, he'll just get beaten up.
So in one exchange, he was knocked down by Rong Jing with a single punch.
Shen Mubai collapsed to the ground, dizzy and disoriented. You Wenwen gave him a look that was hard to describe, her disdain evident, before she started fighting with Rong Jing.
The two exchanged blows, their fists and feet flying back and forth.
While being dragged towards the helicopter by Gu Yunting, Le Yan kept turning her head to watch the chaotic scene despite Gu Yunting's obstruction. She was quite busy going back and forth like this.
Seeing that the fight was raging on the other side, and that she was about to be dragged onto the helicopter by Gu Yunting, Le Yan had a sudden inspiration. When Gu Yunting took out the key, she snatched it with all her might and threw it into the sea.
Thank God, thank you Gu Yunting for leaving her with a movable hand, thank you for the ocean right in front of her, thank you for the fact that there was no one else on the helicopter.
Caught off guard by Le Yan's sudden outburst, Gu Yunting was stunned for a moment. His eyes flashed with anger, confusion, and hurt as he looked at Le Yan, asking in a slightly hoarse voice, "Why?"
