C5 Unspeakable Names

She quickly got up from the bed, staggered out of the bedroom, and was stopped by a middle-aged woman with a kind face.

"Miss Xia, you're awake?"

"Why am I here? Who sent me here?" Xia Anran said anxiously, "I have to go back to the hospital. Grandmother is still waiting for me there!"

"Miss Xia, your grandma is out of danger." Seeing Xia Anran so flustered, the middle-aged woman smiled and comforted her, "Young Master Gu is waiting for you in the lobby. You should leave quickly."

What? Grandmother is out of danger? What was going on?

Xia Anran's mind was filled with a hundred thousand reasons. It seemed that the world changed after she woke up, and only Gu Zichen could explain these questions.

At this time, the woman behind him said with a smile, "I've been in the Gu family for so long, other than Miss Qing Qing, you're the first girl Young Master Gu brought back!"

"Miss Qing Qing?" Hearing this name, Xia Anran curiously turned her head and asked, "Who is she?"

Hearing that, the woman seemed to have realized something and quickly waved her hand, "I-I didn't say anything! "You should hurry up and leave. Young Master Gu has been waiting for you for a long time."

After saying that, the woman hurriedly turned around and left. Her figure that seemed to have disappeared into thin air was extremely secretive. It was as if that Lady Qing Qing was a taboo within this mansion.

Xia Anran had no choice but to give up. She slowly walked down the long carved stairs and saw a man carrying a bottle of red wine in the living room. His slender back looked like a god under the moonlight.

"Yo, you woke up?" Seeing Xia Anran, the man slanted his eyes and teased, "He really is like a lazy kitten."

He put down the wine cup in his hand and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, your grandmother's operation was very successful. You will be able to see her in two days."

Xia Anran fainted due to overwork. Gu Zichen sent her home and received a call from her hospital. He found out that Xia Anran was asking him for money because her grandmother was in critical need of surgery.

The man immediately transferred two million dollars to the hospital account and told the doctor to use the best equipment and medicine.

For the first time, he was upset that he had misjudged someone. Fortunately, it was not too late. Xia Anran's grandmother had escaped danger and the operation had been successful.

Xia Anran's white face turned slightly red. She took out the cheque from her pocket and thanked him, "Thank you for your help. However, I don't need this cheque anymore."

Seeing the girl's neither servile nor overbearing attitude, a smile flashed across Gu Zichen's dark eyes. He held Xia Anran's hand and said,

"Don't forget our agreement. Since we're going to be married soon, there's no need to calculate this much with me."

The tone of the man's voice was rarely gentle. This was something that had never happened before.

However, Xia Anran pursed her lips, looked up stubbornly at Gu Zichen and said, "I'm sorry, I won't marry you."

Since her grandmother was no longer in danger, why did she have to be the shadow of someone else?

Even though she was betraying her word, Xia Anran was no fool. She would never sacrifice her life's happiness just to be a substitute for an illusory woman!

Gu Zichenqi was so angry that he laughed instead. How did he forget about this girl's stubborn temper?

For some reason, Gu Zichen felt extremely unhappy when he saw Xia Anran trying to get rid of him in such a hurry. His expression turned as cold as ice.

"Xia Anran, don't even think about getting rid of me."

Xia Anran looked at the man's ice-cold eyes and felt that he was looking at another woman. She couldn't help but sneer and say,

"Gu Zichen, you don't want to marry me at all, you just treat me like that woman called Qing Qing!"

Hearing this, the man's thin lips immediately pursed into a straight line. His black eyes were filled with burning fury and his expression was extremely terrifying.

"Who asked you to mention Qingqing's name?"

His sharp and cold eyes locked on Xia Anran tightly. When she felt that she was about to be killed by the man's gaze, Gu Zichen turned his back on her.

The man's back was covered in moonlight. He suppressed his anger and said, "Xia Anran, don't think you're smart. Your grandma spent a total of two million on the treatment, and I, Gu Zichen, never make a loss."

Xia Anran took a deep breath and said in a neither humble nor haughty manner, "I know. I will return the two million to you as soon as possible."

Gu Zichen sneered and turned around to look at Xia Anran. His sharp eyes slightly narrowed, "Give it back to me as soon as possible?" What can you do to repay it? "

He looked at the girl's pretty face and her slim curves. With a cold smile, he said, "Even if you go out and sell them, I'm afraid you won't be worth much."

Xia Anran knew that she had been humiliated. Immediately, she felt her face burning. Unwilling to give up, she raised her head and glared at the man.

"Isn't it just selling? You think I don't dare? "

Gu Zichen's inky black eyes immediately squinted slightly. An intimidating cold light shone out from within, making people's legs involuntarily tremble.

"Mrs Zhang." The man's thin lips slightly parted as he coldly spoke.

The middle-aged woman who had spoken to Xia Anran just now hurried downstairs, lowering her head and saying, "Young Master Gu, what can I do for you?"

"Take her to the Dihuang." Gu Zichen spoke in a ruthless tone, his eyes filled with a cold light.

"This …" Mrs Zhang anxiously glanced at Xia Anran, and softly said, "Young Master Gu, Miss Xia is overworked, I'm afraid Dihuang is such a place …"

"What is it? You're not going to listen to my orders? " Gu Zichen said coldly.

Mrs Zhang immediately shrunk her neck and nodded her head, "Okay …" I understand Young Master Gu. "

Looking at Xia Anran's leaving figure behind Mrs Zhang, Gu Zichen lowered his head and sneered. He did not believe that in a place like Dihuang where one ate people without spitting out their bones, Xia Anran's small body would be able to last for long.

At that time, wouldn't she have to obediently come back and beg for his forgiveness? The man imagined the scene at that time, and his heart was actually filled with anticipation.

He really wanted to see how long Xia Anran's stubborn temper could last within the Dihuang.

Gu Zichen's dark eyes were deep and dark. A hint of worry flashed through them before it disappeared.

At this time, Mother Zhang brought Xia Anran and sat in the carriage heading to Dihuang. Looking at the pale face of the girl, she couldn't help but sigh.

"Miss Xia, why would you make Young Master Gu angry? A place like Dihuang isn't for a girl like you to go, quickly call Young Master Gu and ask for mercy! "Young Master Gu likes you so much, he will definitely let you go back."

Xia Anran stubbornly turned her head and said in a muffled voice, "He doesn't like me. He just thinks of me as that Qingqing!"
