“You think I will believe you? Since you’ve gone to such great lengths to throw yourself at me, I’ll indulge you today!” Tang Rongling laughed as he abruptly yanked her arm and flung her onto the bed.
Startled, Gu Qingxin fell heavily onto the bed. She immediately tried to rise, but he bore down on her like a mountain…
Gu Qingxin fought desperately with her arms trying to push him away…
“Tang Rongling, let me go! Otherwise, I will scream that you’re sexually harassing me!” Gu Qingxin glared at him furiously.
“You better scream louder, so everyone from the Gu family can see what kind of woman you are!”
Thinking about what she had done, Tang Rongling was inexplicably overwhelmed by a wave of anger he himself couldn’t explain.
Gu Qingxin struggled with all her might but her strength was no match for a man’s, let alone Tang Rongling’s, who had practiced martial arts from a young age and had an exceptionally good physical constitution. No one, not even several men combined, could overpower him.
“Tang Rongling, let me go! 1 really didn’t come to seduce you! Let me go!” Unable to free herself, Gu Qingxin could only shout, hoping that he would regain his senses.
With a loud “bang”, the bedroom door swung open, and a soft, sweet voice rang out, “All Ling, I heard you had a drink. I warmed up some milk for you to help you sleep… Ah!”
The light in the room turned on, and with a dull thud accompanied by a startled scream from a woman, the man’s actions came to a halt.
Feeling both humiliated and angry, Gu Qingxin forcefully pushed the man who had already stopped away. Almost rolling and crawling, she scampered down from the bed, her hand tightly covering her shirt, which had been torn open by the man. Like a wounded animal, she rushed out of the room…
“Little sister… Ah Ling… What are you…” Gu Yunci, with her deer-like, innocent eyes wide open, stared at the man in front of her. Crystal-clear tears rolled down her tender cheeks and she bit her lips tightly, her thin body trembling incessantly.
Seeing her tears, Tang Rongling felt a pang in his heart. He walked over, wrapped her petite body in his arms, and apologized, “I’m sorry, Xiao Ci. I don’t know how she got into my room… It seems like…like I was drugged.” “Drugged? All Ling! It couldn’t have been little sister. There must be a misunderstanding.” Scared that Tang Rongling might direct his anger toward Gu Qingxin, Gu Yunci clung tightly to his shirt, looking pitifully at him.
Tang Rongling didn’t say anything but his eyebrows furrowed deeply. He was sure there was nothing wrong with the social event he attended. The problem must have been the glass of water he drank when he got home.
Gu Qingxin, you always manage to surprise me.
As Gu Qingxin fled, she ran straight into her father Gu Huai’an, and Zhou Mantong going upstairs. Seeing her appearance, Gu Huai’an’s eyebrows furrowed deeply.
“What’s going on? Why are you all standing on the stairs?” The Old Lady of the Gu family also ‘coincidentally’ came in from outside.
“Mom, Qingxin is back. She came for her living expenses.” Zhou Mantong immediately turned and walked downstairs, affectionately helping the Old Lady.
The Old Lady looked shocked as she stared at the dishevelled girl on the stairs. Her eyes filled with disgust, she pointed at Gu Qingxin and cursed, “Gu Huai’an, look at your fine daughter! She no longer looks like a high-born lady. What’s the difference between her and a whore?”
“Mom, please calm your anger.” Zhou Mantong kept trying to soothe the Old Lady, looking at Gu Qingxin with disdain and contempt..
