Gu Wan died in winter. After being tortured by Meng Shuhan and Gu Yuting for three whole months, he escaped from the dungeon. He wanted to collect his child's corpse, but his most trusted maid told him about it. Meng Shuhan sent twenty soldiers with long spears over and said that she was a thief. Their bodies were riddled with holes and blood.
—She glared at him with her bloodshot eyes. The unwillingness and resentment in her eyes were even colder than the frost on the tiles of the Huo family...
When she opened her eyes again, she only felt a severe headache. Subconsciously, she wanted to make a sound, but was covered by a wide palm.
"Don't make a sound!"
The man's cold voice was almost heard by her ear, and the heat in his mouth blew into her neck, making her instinctively numb.
In the narrow wardrobe, she and the man were very close, and the air smelled of blood.
Fence was stunned.
She had been reborn in this life, and she had even lived to the first time she had seen the Huo Xi Province?
—She remembered. When she was pushed into the cabinet, she touched her head and fainted for a short time...
"Mm... Shuheng, be gentle. It hurts a little..." The woman's voice was indescribably soft and seductive.
"What are you afraid of? Haven't you already had it many times? Stop pretending, I know, you like this..." The man's words were full of sarcasm!
The noise outside made Fence's face sink.
This was Gu Yuting's and Meng Shuhan's voices.
Meng Shuhan was her fiance, and they would hold a western wedding in three days. Gu Yuting was the adopted daughter of the Gu family and her nominal sister.
Of course, it could only be nominal. At that time, the wet nurse of the Gu family accidentally lost her, causing her to be adopted by the countryside family until she was ten years old. In the past ten years, the Gu family adopted Gu Yuting, and her biological parents gave all their love to her. Even if she returned to the Gu family, there was no change.
Her biological mother even felt that she had been provoked because she grew up in the countryside. She didn't want to look at her anymore. She always schemed against her in public and in secret, hoping that she would die early so as to remove the stain on her!
Therefore, Gu Yuting could bully her unscrupulously, including what she had done with Fence's fiance on the bed outside at this moment!
Thinking of this, the corner of Fence's mouth curved into a cold arc—she was indeed reborn. Then, she would not let go of anyone who owed her blood debt in her previous life!
"Hmm..." After struggling out of her memories, Fence made a slight sound and shook her head at Huo Xizhou, indicating that she would be obedient.
In the darkness, she couldn't see clearly Huo Xizhou's face. Only a pair of obsidian-like eyes were staring at her fiercely.
Hodan understood what she meant. After hesitating for a moment, he moved his hand away from her lips.
"Don't shout, or I'll kill you first!" The warning sounded coldly again.
It was so cold that even if she was prepared, Fence couldn't help but shiver.
She tried her best to lower her voice and said carefully, "I won't shout, and I can't call for such a situation... But, sir, your injury seems to be very serious. Can you hold on?"
Huo Xizhou was slightly stunned. Was this woman worried about his injuries?
If he remembered correctly, this woman was the daughter of the Gu family in Jiang City, the First Young Master of the Meng family outside, and her fiance!
She heard that she was extremely fond of Meng Shuhan. After he went abroad to study, she had been waiting for him at home for many years. Now that he was back, she was about to marry him.
However, she had been locked up in a wardrobe while Meng Shuhan and some other woman outside had fallen?
Right at this moment.
"Bang!" The door outside was knocked open, and someone rushed in with a gun in his hand.
Huo Xizhou and Fence held their breath in an instant!
"Ah, Shuheng!" Gu Yuting didn't expect anyone to barge in and was so frightened that she hid in Meng Shuhan's embrace.
Meng Shuhan immediately pulled the blanket and hid Gu Yuting. He stared coldly at the person who had barged in. "Who is it?"
The person who came glanced at Meng Shuhan. It was obvious that he knew him. He looked around and did not find anything unusual in the room. He smiled and said, "So it's Young Master Meng. Could it be that the future Young Madam of the Meng family is in that bed? I heard that Young Master Meng will be getting married in three days. Why can't you hold it in these few days?"
"Or... isn't that the eldest daughter of the Gu family? Young Master Meng is raising her outside..."
"Of course she's the madam I'm going to marry. I'm not the kind of person who would steal women and jade." Meng Shuhan hurriedly fished out a money bag by the bed and tossed it to the man. He said seriously, "Please pretend that you didn't see anything tonight. I and my wife will be grateful to you."
The man opened the money bag and took a look. It was full of hard goods. He said to the person next to him, "There is no one else in the room."
"Sorry to disturb you, Young Master Meng. Please continue."
The vast world made the most money.
The door was closed again.
The people in the room were not interested in having fun at all.
Meng Shuhan said as he got out of bed and put on his clothes, "Something seems to have happened in the city tonight. Yuting, we'd better leave as soon as possible."
Gu Yuting didn't move. She glanced in the direction of the wardrobe and wrapped her hands around Meng Shuhan like a snake. "Shuheng, you're going to marry my sister in three days. Can't you spend more time with me?"
"Yuting, you know that it's just a formality for me to marry Fence. After I get married, my father will hand over everything about the Meng family to me. Besides, we agreed that when I get the power of the Meng family, I will divorce her and marry you."
"Wait a little longer, okay?"
"I'm just afraid that you will fall in love with my sister. After all, she is a real noble lady, unlike me. Although I was raised by the Gu family since I was a child, I have no blood of wealth. Now I even gave my body to you. I can only be regarded as a ruined flower." Gu Yuting pretended to be pitiful. "If you don't want me, I can only die."
"What nonsense are you spouting?" Meng Shuhan pretended to be angry and said, "How could I fall in love with such a conservative and shameless woman? Don't overthink it."
As soon as he returned to Jiang City, there were always people who made fun of him because of the fact that Fence had been waiting for him. He was extremely angry and thought that it was shameless for Fence to like him and wait for him. Therefore, he had not seen Fence for so long. If it were not for the marriage with the Gu family, how could he marry her?
A woman who could only cause him trouble and had not been educated in a new way was probably the kind of beautiful lady in the feudal society who could only be cured of illness. Moreover, she had been living for many years and had already become an old lady. She must be very ugly!
"Okay." Gu Yuting said, "Then you can go first. I'll leave later. Don't make trouble for you."
Meng Shuhan nodded in satisfaction. He wanted a sensible woman like Gu Yuting who could meet his needs.
This was what he thought in his heart. Without any other doubts, he put on his clothes and went out.
Only then did Gu Yuting pack up. She got off the bed, walked to the wardrobe, took the key, and unlocked the lock hanging on the door of the wardrobe.
"Gu Wan, did you hear what Shuheng said just now?"
