Chapter 217 Sweet Shock
In the small, dim room, the burnt yellow, low-quality window screens blocked most of the sunlight. The room was filled with sticky and dirty colors. The tar marks on the sofa were like a ridiculous tattoo, which was quickly covered up by the two decadent people.

It was as if some hidden creature was scratching and clawing at it, and an unpleasant smell of tar and alcohol rose in the air. One person's movements slowed down, and her blurry face suddenly became close at hand.

Gu Baozhu!
Gu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then he was filled with rage. He reached out to grab Gu Baozhu, and out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of the glistening tears and sticky eyelashes on her face. She just looked blankly in his direction, as if she was looking for somewhere where the sound came from.

"Baozhu!" He looked at his empty hands in vain. Even the possibility of throwing the man aside had completely disappeared.

Gu Baozhu was trembling violently, her neck was forcibly lifted up, her frail body sank into the gap between the sofas, and the doubts in her mouth were swallowed up. Her dark eyes, filled with tears, were completely dazed, like a puppet whose soul had been taken away.

"In that case, you might as well die." Gu Yuan looked down at her red lips, then looked at her neck which he had pinched in the air. Finally, he let go of his hand and twisted the back of his hand hard.

The unpleasant smell of tar was still at the tip of my nose, but the pain on the back of my hand did not appear. Not far away, neatly arranged documents were placed on a tidy desk. A few pieces of design draft paper had fallen to the ground at some point and were lying not far from my feet.

Gu Yuan raised the back of his hand and pressed it against his forehead. He felt cold sweat soaking his back. He thought he had really had a terrible nightmare. Recently, whenever he didn't get enough rest, he would have nightmares...

Glancing at the cigarette butt beside him, he sat up from the sofa and took off the coat he had worn directly from the dinner party to the company last night. Sure enough, it smelled of alcohol.

I shouldn't have fallen asleep in this coat last night.

Gu Yuan sat there for a long time, until the bright sunlight outside shone through the gaps in the light-colored blinds, filling the room with lovely brightness. However, his pupils contracted sharply as if in pain, and his throat finally became hoarse.

"Naughty children should be punished."

He stood up, prepared to wash up nearby, and changed his clothes to attend the morning meeting.

I turned around and saw my phone was on, so I answered the call from Feng Lei.

"Because Gu Lan has not signed with their company, the position of the third male lead is a bit uncertain. We need to work hard to get it. However, we need a budget to build momentum. I have sent it to the finance department. Please approve it."

"Ah."

"Things are going smoothly with Baozhu. We are already working on her contract. As long as we sign, the witch role that has a lot of scenes will be Baozhu's."

Gu Yuan paused, his eyes slightly red.

Feng Lei laughed on the other end of the phone, his magnetic voice vibrating, as if there was an engine installed in his head, "To be honest, I think Baozhu has the potential to be very popular. She is smart and clever, and the public opinion is getting more and more attention. She also has an advantage in appearance. Why not let Baozhu pursue her dream of entering the entertainment industry as well."

Hearing that Gu Yuan did not respond, Feng Lei tactfully withdrew his attempt and mentioned that Sun Haoyang wanted to sign a contract with Baozhu Entertainment.

"Although the popularity is average, the signing fee is very cheap. Our company is in the expansion stage, so let's just consider it as a favor to Lanlan. Do you think it's okay?"

"Can't you make your own fucking decision?" Gu Yuan suddenly cursed out loud, and without waiting for Feng Lei's response, he threw the phone into the corner. The outer shell of the phone cracked in an instant, exposing part of the movement inside.

Fragments flew onto his body, and a bone-chilling chill spread from the painful area to his spine and the back of his head. His exhausted body seemed to have stiffened into stone. He clenched his palms uncontrollably to dilute the numbness, and only felt the pain eased a little when sweat began to flow from his palms.

The smell of blood in the air gradually became stronger. He raised his palm and took a look. It turned out that the palm of his hand was rubbed with blood by his nails. Pulling the corner of his mouth with amusement, Gu Yuan turned to the company's phone and dialed the police... Half an hour ago, the deadline for missing persons reporting was reached.

……

how to say.

This is a rather cliché plot, but because it is so classic, Gu Baozhu still felt shocked.

Life is often sweet at first, but it may not be the same after a while. This is almost the established route of all relationships...

"No! Who do you think I am? Since you have provoked me, don't even think about dealing with me easily! I am not the kind of idiot who can be summoned and dismissed at will! I will not let you leave without explaining things clearly!"

...Oh, so annoying! You might as well just roar into my ears!
"What's with that expression on your face? What qualifications do you have to bother me?" Cui Hu continued to pursue her, almost dropping the book in his hand, staring into Gu Baozhu's eyes.

"No, I'm just tired and want to sleep." Gu Baozhu looked at him carefully.

"You slept until nine in the morning! It's only 11 now!"

"Then I want to pee." Gu Baozhu took a deep breath and said.

What a classic and boring conversation. I didn't expect that it would become like this after such a short time between us. I think you should reflect on yourself. No one wants a chattering friend, and someone as lovely as me is no exception.

Besides, it was only two days, but it felt like half a lifetime. This is what is called vicissitudes of life...

Cui Hu obviously didn't take Gu Baozhu's refusal seriously, and just asked arrogantly: "Look at me, do you dare to say what you said before to my eyes again?"

"Which sentence?" Gu Baozhu looked at Cui Hu's bright and warm black eyes and said a little confusedly.

I don't want to say that the promise is too beautiful because we are too young, but dear, that is not love, just like a shooting star that you don't have time to make a wish on, no matter how beautiful it is, it can only be a thing of the past...

The familiar melody played on repeat in her head which was filled with questions, until Cui Hu angrily put his lips close to hers. She suddenly realized that this was a chat that deserved to be treated well, otherwise this questioning would last... I don't know, maybe forever.

Gu Baozhu blocked Cui Hu's lips and asked anxiously, "What did you say? I have said too much these days. Which one are you referring to?"

“…I just said that yesterday,” Cui Hu then held her wrist and put it aside, feeling a little embarrassed and annoyed by Gu Baozhu’s performance.

Did you just say that yesterday? I said so many sweet words, how would I know which one you remembered...

Gu Baozhu looked like she was lost in thought, and then she warned him seriously, "Don't take a bath with me in the future. I was so busy looking at you that I totally forgot what I said. And don't take a bath in the future. You will catch a cold even if the water is hot if you are naked."

"That's a hot spring! Idiot!" Cui Hu shouted with a red face, and then saw Gu Baozhu screaming and running away.

"You're trying to change the subject again!" Cui Hu reacted.
