When Gu Xiwan walked out of the office, most of the employees had already left work and there was only a tall figure standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the pharmacy.
"I've already gotten off work, why aren't you leaving yet?" Gu Xiwan asked casually.
"Because I'm waiting for you."
This ethereal voice sounded like the sound of nature.
When the words fell, the man turned around and faced Gu Xiwan.
Only then did Gu Xiwan realize that this person was Ye Ziming.
"I'm sorry, you just turned your back to me and didn't recognize you. Are you here to take me home? When did you come? Why are you standing here waiting so dryly instead of calling me in my office? ?" Gu Xiwan said sarcastically.
Ye Ziming, "I've been waiting for you here for almost an hour, because I know you need to be alone and don't want to be disturbed. Besides, the night view here is very good. It's good for me to stand here and enjoy it. .”
Oh my God!
Did he just stand there waiting for her for an hour?
Ye Ziming had long legs and long steps. He was already in front of her when he spoke. The corners of his perfectly curved mouth were slightly raised, with an expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.
"Would you like to buy you a drink?"
Gu Xiwan, "..."
In the past, people of the opposite sex have invited her to karaoke, watch movies, have dinner...
This was the first time someone of the opposite sex invited her to drink.
A shadow flashed before her eyes. This shadow came from Ye Ziming's hand.
The next second, Ye Ziming's palm was already on her head, rubbing her head gently as usual,
"No need to hide it, I understand. You really need someone to drink a strong drink with you now. I am the best person, right?"
"Ah? This..." Gu Xiwan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, and forced a smile at the corners of her tear-stained mouth.
"Well, Master, let's go have a drink."
Perhaps, now she might only forget all about those troubles if she gets drunk.
Just as Ye Ziming said, now, Ye Ziming is her husband, and Ye Ziming is someone who is absolutely worthy of her trust. It doesn't matter if she is drunk and unconscious next to Ye Ziming.
So, let these two lonely souls drink together to soothe their sorrows tonight!
"No return at zero o'clock"——
A bar hidden in an alley.
There was no one visible in the alley, except for a red and green neon light on the door of the bar. Even in broad daylight, it was difficult for anyone to spot the bar. However, the bar was packed with people.
At this moment, the burly bar owner was standing in front of the bar bartending drinks for the guests. When he saw Ye Ziming walking over, his face turned pale with shock and he said in a trembling voice,
"Sir, since you taught me a lesson last time, I have taken it to heart and have long since changed my ways. I have never done anything harmful to the world again. You see, I just bartend and sell wine in a serious way. I swear, I do This is all legitimate business, why do you still come to trouble me?"
The night is deserted and deserted,
"If you really don't have any ghosts in your heart, what are you afraid of?"
Bar was so frightened that his legs weakened, "Sir, I really haven't done it again. I promise you with everything I have..."
"No need to explain." Ye Ziming interrupted the conversation at the bar calmly,
"I'm just here to have a few drinks with my wife. You don't have to be afraid of me."
The bartender was relieved, and then he took a closer look at Gu Xiwan next to Ye Ziming, and said respectfully, "Sir, you are actually married. Congratulations, your wife is very beautiful. You two are like a match made in heaven. You look like a husband and wife." Now, they look like a couple at first glance."
A rare smile appeared on Ye Ziming's stern face,
"very eloquent."
Ye Ziming said that Gu Xiwan liked the window seat.
The bartender hurried over and persuaded the two men and one woman on the window seats to give up their seats and arranged for Gu Xiwan and Ye Ziming to sit there.
Then, he smiled and asked Gu Xiwan,
"We have sixteen kinds of wine in the bar. The alcohol concentration and taste are detailed on the wine list. Which wine do you want?"
Gu Xiwan said lightly,
"I want three glasses of the strongest wine you have here."
The bartender looked at her in disbelief, "The strongest wine we have here is called 'One Sip of All Sorrows'. Haha, I got the name myself. I am not well-educated. It means literally. Just take one sip and all your worries will be wiped away." Eliminate it. However, that kind of wine is super strong. Usually only grown men who drink often would order it. You might get drunk without even one drink. I advise you to order other low-alcohol bars. I think 'Mint Vanilla' is quite good. suits you."
"No!" Gu Xiwan shook her head firmly.
"I want that, three cups, thank you~"
Eradicate all sorrow in one bite.
What a great name!
It just suits her current mood!
Soon, the bartender personally placed six glasses of wine on the table, all of which were "evaporate all sorrows in one gulp." She and Ye Ziming had three glasses each.
Gu Xiwan picked up the wine glass at hand and took a sip. She was immediately choked by the pungent smell of alcohol and coughed. Her mouth and throat were burning, as if they were on fire.
Only at this moment did she realize that such a strong drink was simply not something she could bear.
Ye Ziming smiled playfully,
"Don't waste it. You ordered three drinks. Drink them all."
Gu Xiwan could only smile bitterly.
Next, she didn't touch the glass of wine again. She just smelled the wine and felt that she was drunk.
At a certain moment, she suddenly felt a chill between her brows. She raised her eyes and met a pair of deep, cold eyes, and the owner of these eyes was none other than Chu Lingjue.
For the first moment, she suspected it was her imagination.
However, if you look closely, you will see those dangerous and dazzling eyes, that handsome face, those uncanny facial features... Who else could this person be besides Chu Lingjue? !
At this moment, Chu Lingjue was sitting in seat 9, face to face with Gu Xiwan. He was wearing a black suit that was as sharp as new. There were faint confetti commonly used in weddings on his hair and clothes. It was obvious that he had just attended A wedding.
He is the groom today!
Now, his marriage shouldn't be over yet, right? Shouldn't he be with his bride toasting the guests? Why did he get here?
At this time, Chu Lingjue was also looking at her for a moment. Although the two of them were more than ten meters apart, she seemed to catch some strong emotion in his eyes——
It seems to be sad, but also seems to be joy.
"Sir, something happened."
This sudden voice interrupted Gu Xiwan's thoughts.
Immediately afterwards, the bartender came to the table and whispered to Ye Ziming,
"Sir, the Lamborghini outside with the tail number 668 is your car, right? The glass of that car was broken. It seems that someone did it to steal the things in the car. Would you like to go over and take a look? .”
Ye Ziming's eyes darkened, and he patted Gu Xiwan's shoulder.
"I have something very important in my car. Wait for me here. I'll go over and take a look and come back to you."
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Just as Ye Ziming's figure disappeared in front of her eyes, she saw Chu Lingjue again.
The moment she saw Chu Lingjue, a gap seemed to be opened in her heart. The pain, unwillingness, and sadness rushed out of the gap like a flood that burst a dike, making her almost suffocated.
She picked up the glass of wine in her hand. She didn't know if it was because her emotions were too strong at this time. She seemed to have lost her sense of taste. She only felt that the glass of wine was as light and tasteless as boiled water. She drank the whole glass of wine in one breath. Drink it.
Several people at the next table looked at her strangely.
And she felt nothing.
However, even if she deliberately lowered her head to avoid Chu Lingjue's sight, she could still feel those familiar eyes looking at her. He was so far away from her, but she had the illusion that his face was right in front of her.
She couldn't calm down anymore, went to pay the bill, and walked out of the bar as if she was running away.
She would wait outside the bar for Ye Ziming to come back.
She didn't notice that as early as when she was drinking in the bar, four men were eyeing her. These four men were all gangsters who had just been released from prison. They had been secretly observing her. Her beauty made them salivate. .
Seeing that Gu Xiwan was single, these four men followed her quietly.
Gu Xiwan was walking along the invisible alley. Two of the four men suddenly quickened their pace and caught up with her, blocking her way. The other two stood behind her to prevent her. Escape.
Gu Xiwan had never been afraid of these gangsters. At this moment, she was already in a bad mood. When she saw someone had ill intentions towards her, she said coldly,
"Go away, or you will bear the consequences!"
"Oh? My little sister looks so weak on the surface. I didn't expect her temper to be so strong. I like it, hahahaha!" Knowing that few people passed by here and it was pitch dark, the man in front of Gu Xiwan's right laughed unbridled.
The man in front of Gu Xiwan tilted his head disdainfully.
"Beauty, your little mouth is quite hard. We like you and want to play with you. Please please us. If we are happy, we will spare your life. Otherwise, don't blame us for destroying the flower with our ruthless hands, ha. Ha ha."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Several other men also laughed evilly.
Looking at the two twisted and ugly faces in front of her, Gu Xiwan almost vomited.
Knowing that these men were determined to "play" with her and would never let her go easily, she no longer wasted her words, but silently opened her handbag and held three quenching sticks in each hand. Silver needle.
"Are you going to take off your clothes and lie on the ground obediently, or do you want us to do it ourselves?" As the man in front of Gu Xiwan spoke, he came to her and reached out to pull her top.
The surroundings were as dark as ink, and Gu Xiwan's eyes were fixed on every move of these men. As soon as the man's hand grabbed her clothes, she took action as fast as lightning and pierced it with a silver needle accurately. Man's palm.
"ah!
My hand... is not good, my whole arm has no feeling... What is going on? "The man pinched his unconscious right arm with his left hand, looking terrified.
Gu Xiwan showed no mercy and inserted the silver needle into the acupuncture point on the man's neck again as fast as lightning. This time, the man passed out and fell to the ground with a "thud".
"Ah? How could this happen?"
"This woman...what did she do to the third child?"
The remaining three men looked panicked.
Gu Xiwan hated men who liked to insult women. She had no intention of running away from the beginning, but wanted to knock them all down and call the police.
After going through a series of training, and with the silver needle in hand, she can easily deal with these street gangsters.
She vigilantly observed every move of the remaining three men, like a vigilant falcon, which would immediately capture its prey as soon as it found any flaw.
"This woman is unusual, what should we do? Run!"
"run?
Fourth child, you are such a coward. No matter how unusual she is, she is just a weak woman. Can we three grown men still not be able to deal with her? Go together! "
The three men attacked Gu Xiwan together.
Gu Xiwan found that the man behind her on the right had the biggest flaw and was the easiest to attack. She decided to stab the man in the chest with a silver needle and bring him down, and then deal with the remaining two.
However, the moment she took action, she suddenly felt a strong dizziness, and her hands and feet began to tremble. It turned out that the strong drink she drank in the bar had an effect.
As a result, the silver needle that was supposed to be pierced into the man's chest actually missed the point and passed through the man's armpit.
The man grabbed her wrist accurately, then strangled her neck severely and pushed her against the wall.
At the same time, two other men rushed forward and pressed her shoulders and stomach respectively, making her back press against the cold wall, unable to move at all.
"ah--"
The sharp pain from her back hitting the wall made her let out a low moan.
The strong alcohol rushed up at this moment, making her weak, and all the silver needles she had held on her fingertips fell to the ground.
"Haha, you are quite good at barking. When I heard your scream, I felt warm all over. Don't worry, few people pass by here. Even if someone does, they won't mind their own business. You can scream later, you The happier you scream, the happier I am."
The man's lustful voice and the strong smell of alcohol hit Gu Xiwan's face.
The next second, a hand reached under Gu Xiwan's skirt and forced her closed legs apart.
At this moment, Gu Xiwan had the idea of killing someone!
"Let her go!"
This cold voice came like a blizzard in the darkness.
The hand on Gu Xiwan's leg froze.
There was a terrifying aura in this voice, and the three lawless men were already in disarray just by hearing this voice.
But Gu Xiwan breathed a sigh of relief silently, and a long-lost feeling spread in her heart.
She knew this voice so well!
It's Chu Lingjue's voice!
She remembered that when she was in danger before, Chu Lingjue always appeared in time, and whenever she heard his voice, no matter how dangerous her situation was, she would immediately feel at ease and safe.
Now, she is no longer his wife, but he is still the one who comes to save her in times of crisis!
Accompanied by a steady sound of footsteps, Chu Lingjue walked out of the darkness. Wearing a black suit, he completely blended into the night from the head down. Only his deep cold eyes shone like stars in the darkness. , shining, but so murderous that people dare not look directly at it.
