The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the dark sky was heavy with rain, making it hard to breathe.

Gu Xiaoqi stubbornly held onto the tough meat in her mouth, but Mu Liancheng only paused for a moment, then continued to walk forward.

He carried them to the side of the road and gently set them down.

Gu Xiaoqi was trapped by the man's arms and stuck close to the wall.

Mu Liancheng faced Gu Xiaoqi, his tall and muscular body shielding the petite girl tightly, not a single drop of rain falling in.

Shen Nan came here very quickly, he and Jiayuanhao drove the car to Mu Liancheng's side, and did not dare to say a single unnecessary word.

Just put the guy in the car.

In the wide Rolls Royce, Gu Xiaoqi curled up into a ball and hid in a corner, acting as if she wanted to pull away from Mu Liancheng.

Mu Liancheng did not move, like a statue, he sat there obediently.

But at an angle that Gu Xiaoqi could not see, Mu Liancheng tightly clenched his fists by his side, the veins on the back of his hands bulged, his blood vessels and roots were distinct.

Those nails, which had been cut very short, had cut into the flesh, leaving bloody marks.

Very quickly, he returned to the Mu Family.

Jiayuanhao and Zhou Minghan did not dare say much and directly left.

Shen Nan tactfully went to the study room and left time and space for the two people.

Without waiting for Gu Xiaoqi to reject, Mu Liancheng resorted to using the same tactic, once again lifting the person up onto his shoulder, and then silently stuffed him into the bathroom.

After filling the bathtub with hot water, Mu Liancheng stiffened his body and coldly said one word, "Wash."

Then, sshe left without looking back. This made Gu Xiaoqi heave a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she couldn't help but feel disappointed.

Was Mu Liancheng disappointed with her? He thought that once he got home, this man would personally bathe her and change her clothes without saying a word, then tyrannically feed her and Ginger Water. In the end, he would tightly hug her and sleep.

However, from the start till now, Mu Liancheng had not said a single word, nor did he have any sort of reaction.

Gu Xiaoqi laid down in the bathtub wearing a skirt. The warm water submerged her body, bringing waves after waves of warmth.

However, this warmth couldn't drive away the coldness in her bones. It was a type of despondency that came after being abandoned.

While soaking in the bath in a muddled state until the water completely cooled down, Gu Xiaoqi dragged her drenched skirt and walked out, leaving behind a trail of wet water.

After hesitating for a long time, Gu Xiaoqi finally pushed open the door.

However, she was worried for nothing. There was no one inside, and it was exactly the same as when she went out earlier.

Gu Xiaoqi shuddered and then, out of nowhere, she pushed open the window on the balcony. She stood there and stared blankly into the rain.

Mu Liancheng, who was separated from her by a wall, was currently experiencing inhuman pain.

The berserk forces that had been forcefully suppressed rushed up even more violently. It was as if thousands of ants were gnawing at every muscle on his body.

Mu Liancheng restrained his urge to scream. He was dressed in a beastly manner and his face was completely red from holding in his breath. Blood faintly flowed out of the corner of his mouth.

Shen Nan was anxious to the side, the sickness had come so quickly this time, and the rain outside had not stopped at all.

While walking nonstop in the room, Shen Nan looked at the blood-stained rope on Ninth Master's body, gritted his teeth, and made a difficult decision — he wanted to untie the rope.

So what if Mu Liancheng lost his rationality? Throwing things down and tearing down houses, it would be fine even if he became a target for others. Shen Nan could not bear the torment of the God in his heart.

But when Shen Nan got close to Mu Liancheng, he was immediately shouted at away, "No, no! Xiao Qi, no, injured, Xiao Qi! "

These few words were unclear, but Shen Nan almost cried out upon hearing them.

He even started to blame Gu Xiaoqi, if she did not suddenly run over to look for trouble, why would Ninth Master's condition become so serious, it was like this last time, and it was the same again.

How could that woman be the Ninth Master's salvation? She was simply a jinx.

Ninth Master had done so much for her, but as for Gu Xiaoqi, she had never thought for Ninth Master!

But these heartless words, Shen Nan could only think about it in his heart.

Because he knew that no matter what Gu Xiaoqi did, it was not his place to say anything.

Withdrawing his hand, Shen Nan's eyes were as red as a rabbit's. He could not bear to keep looking, but he was also afraid that Mu Liancheng might accidentally hurt him.

After a whole night of rain, Gu Xiaoqi stood on the balcony until daylight.

Between the two of them, although they were only separated by a single wall, their hearts were as far apart as the horizon.

This time, Mu Liancheng's body had even more injuries from the disease, and even though he had applied medicine on them, there were still many scars.

Moreover, for the first time ever, he was having a fever of 39 degrees. He was lying on the bed, feeling weak.

On the other hand, Gu Xiaoqi, who had been drenched in the rain and had been blowing the cold wind on the balcony for an entire night was alive and kicking, completely fine.

Gu Xiaoqi crawled up from the ground with a stiff body. She looked at the bed that was in good shape and knew that the man had not come back last night.

Although her emotions were frustrated, she still had to do her work. Gu Xiaoqi casually changed her clothes, then pushed open the door and walked out.

When she passed by Mu Liancheng's study, she paused for a bit and quickly left.

Arriving at the set, the director was busy giving a talk to the male and female actors, Xia Yichen was fanning himself with his flippant look. When Gu Xiaoqi walked in, it was as if she had installed a radar as he ran over.

"Gu Xiaoqi, are you alright?!" Even though Xia Yichen was looking at this nonsense, he was a person who knew his limits. He did not intentionally ask about what had happened yesterday;

Gu Xiaoqi was someone who could hide things from her heart in the first place, and she didn't trust Xia Yichen that much either.

With a tired smile, Gu Xiaoqi looked at the script while replying: "It's fine, forget about that meal of yours. I'll treat you another day."

"Alright!" When it came to eating, Xia Yichen was very happy. He chattered on and on about several restaurants, all of which were famous, but of course, the price was also very scary.

Gu Xiaoqi's movie was nearing the end. Although the script was set to have two female lead, in the end, Liang Shuang was still the villain, so there were not as many scenes as she thought.

Today's show was about Liang Shuang learning that she had fallen in love with someone else, even going so far as to force a woman she had just pampered for half a year into the palace.

It wasn't that Gu Xiaoqi had never played NG before, but after the director writer told her about the movie, she could quickly find out what it felt like.

But this time, it took an entire afternoon, an entire three hours, and Gu Xiaoqi was unable to pass by.

Wearing a thick and heavy costume, using her makeup over and over again. She hadn't slept the entire night, so how could Gu Xiaoqi's body take it?

Her face was pale, and her body was wet with sweat.

Looking at Gu Xiaoqi's body that was on the verge of collapse, Ji An could not bear to say anything.

He let out a deep sigh, then helplessly said, "Xiao Qi, first take a rest, first take other people's points."

"Alright, thank you director." Gu Xiaoqi had been waiting for these exact words the entire time. Like a cat escaping for its life, she entered the locker room and took off her thick and heavy costume, breathing heavily.

At this moment, a familiar figure flashed in from outside with a loathsome smile on his face.

"Qi Qi, are you okay?" Gu Jiabao was dressed up very delicately today, and it was rare for her to put on thick makeup.

"Why are you here?" Gu Xiaoqi became cautious. It had never been a good thing for Gu Jiabao to find her, since it was just like her trying to find Gu Jiabao.

Not caring about Gu Xiaoqi's dark face at all, Gu Jiabao had always been quick to forget, so she pointed and said, "Qi Qi, did you and Ninth Master quarrel?"

Gu Xiaoqi's alert rang to Level 10, she replied without batting an eyelid: "Since when did Big Sis Jia Bao change direction to fortune-telling?"

As she did not know what Gu Jiabao knew, Gu Xiaoqi feebly probed.

Gu Jiabao was confident as she fished out an envelope from her bag that contained quite a few photos. She casually picked one up and sized it up: "I never thought that Ninth Master has this kind of hobby. "I've always thought that he only liked innocent girls like you, Qi Qi, but I've forgotten that men like you are the best at saying things with their hearts at their throats."

She snatched the photo from Gu Jiabao's hands, and as expected, she saw the scene in the restaurant yesterday.

An intimate picture of a man who resembled Mu Liancheng and another tall and sexy and enchanting girl.

Not only was there a picture of the two eating, there was also a picture of them holding hands as they walked into the hotel.

As if on purpose, the photo even captured the name of the hotel.

Gu Jiabao smiled and admired from the side. She was still in the mood to tease: "If Qi Qi can't do it, then you can go and check. On that day, Ninth Master didn't open a room at this hotel.

Her heart was bleeding, but Gu Xiaoqi didn't reveal it on her face. She was stubborn and paranoid, no matter what problems she and Mu Liancheng had, it was still their problem.

"What do you want?" Gu Xiaoqi asked bluntly.

Gu Jiabao also did not hesitate, she also directly revealed her goal, "Join hands, get on the throne."

"Heh, not interested." Gu Xiaoqi rejected him without even thinking.

Gu Jiabao was already prepared in her heart, so she leisurely advised: "Qi Qi, I've already said before that for a man like Mu Liancheng, it's only temporary for him to be interested in anyone he likes. You can't rely on him for a lifetime. Now that he has someone else, there will be more in the future. At that time, what will you do? "

Gu Jiabao spoke earnestly with all her heart as if she was completely considering Gu Xiaoqi's options. If it was the Gu Xiaoqi of her previous life, she might have believed it.

As she fiddled with the crafty photos, Gu Xiaoqi seemed to be convinced. She asked hesitantly: "Then what do you think we should do?"

Seeing Gu Xiaoqi "shaking", Gu Jiabao was overjoyed, and spoke with even more vigor.

"You asked for my help because you were afraid that Mu Kexin would snatch the Ninth Master away. Xiao Qi, in the end, we are all surnamed Gu. We should be family, other than me, who would truly treat you well? So, listen to me, we'll sit in the Mrs. Mu's position together. Don't worry, after marriage, I will absolutely not fight for your favor. As long as you have a son to accompany me. At that time, no matter how hard those small fries try, it will be of no use. "

"Mrs. Mu?" Gu Xiaoqi blinked, and said deliberately: "But I still don't want to get married so early."

Gu Jiabao's face immediately darkened — — Why is this Gu Xiaoqi so bad that she doesn't know what's good for herself? She said it so obviously, but she didn't understand it!
