C7 Caught

Gu Ruoyun's heart thumped in her chest. Her heart was so nervous that it reached her throat as she smiled coquettishly before pouting, "Ninth Lord, what kind of joke are you making? How can I be qualified to be your woman? It's better if you don't touch me too much, otherwise I'll lower your status, don't you think so?"

Although Gu Ruoyun said this, she had long since rolled her eyes in her heart. If she had to stay by a man who threw people into the sea every now and then to feed the fish, she might as well just kill her.

The feeling of being on tenterhooks was really unpleasant. If one day he got annoyed, he might be thrown into the sea to be fed to the fishes. In the end, not even his bones would remain. Gu Ru Jiu didn't want to interact with such a dangerous person.

"You don't want to go with me?"

The man's long and narrow eyes narrowed slightly. A strange light was hidden within them.

"Of course not, I'm just used to being free. What kind of woman do you want, a person with status and status like Ninth Master? You wouldn't keep a disobedient woman by your side, would you?"

Gu Ru Jiu once again walked to Ninth Master's side. His bright eyes were clearly filled with unease, but he didn't dare show it in front of the man.

"Alright, feel free."

The man's words clearly stunned Gu Ruoyun for a moment, but it was followed by surprise. She looked at Ninth Lord, unable to contain the joy in her eyes. "Then Ninth Lord, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first."

Having said so, Gu Ruoyun hurriedly walked out of the room. At this moment, she didn't want to stay here for even a second longer.

However, the Ninth Master's next words made her pause. "Sun Cheng's men are chasing you. If you walk out of this mansion, you probably won't see the sun tomorrow."

The man's gentle words made Gu Ruoyun's heart sink to the bottom. At that time, she was really too impulsive, so she killed Sun Cheng without much thought for her revenge. Now, she had gotten herself into a lot of trouble.

Those people would definitely not let her off. When the time came, they might even die without knowing how.

Gu Ruoyun was upset, and was struggling internally to stay with Ninth Lord. Ninth Lord was his eldest brother, so if he became his woman, no one would dare to touch her. However, compared to the people who were chasing after her, he was countless times more terrifying.

"Oh yeah, my people just reported that Sun Cheng isn't dead."

Gu Ruoyun's heart thumped. She abruptly turned her head to look at Ninth Master with disbelief in her eyes. "How come he didn't die?"

She had spent so much effort just to get a chance to get close to Sun Cheng, but now he actually told her that Sun Cheng wasn't dead. Then wouldn't all her previous efforts have been in vain?

Moreover, since Sun Cheng already knew her identity, he would definitely chase her to the ends of the earth to kill her. What should she do now?

Gu Ruoyun's heart was in a mess. She had never been as lost as she was now. She was already at the point where she had no other choice.

The man looked at Gu Ruoyun with an unsmiling expression. His deep eyes seemed to be staring at prey as he stared at her with interest. "Why aren't you leaving?"

Hearing the man's voice, Gu Ruoyun steeled her heart. She looked at Ninth Master with a hidden bitterness before quickly walking towards him, "Ninth Lord, we were still husband and wife for the night, you won't just watch me get hunted down, right? You will definitely feel heartache, right? "

Gu Ruoyun's reddened fingernails poked at Ninth Master's chest. Her tender and gentle tone made one's heart itch when they heard it.

The man's sword-like eyebrows raised as he cast a secretive gaze towards Gu Ruoyun. All the little thoughts in her heart entered his eyes. He couldn't help but admit that this woman was very different from what he'd imagined.

He was becoming more and more interested in this woman. In all these years, there had never been a woman who was able to pique his interest.

"Ninth Master, if I were to be your woman, would you guarantee my safety?"

Seeing that the man didn't speak, Gu Ru Jiu probed.

This time, she was really going all out. If she died, she would die. She would rather die in the hands of this man than be captured by Sun Cheng's men.

"You've thought it through?"

"Ninth Master, I've been your man since last night."

Gu Ruoyun leaned her head against Ninth Master's shoulder and said coquettishly.

"Lil 'Jiu, you're not bad. You actually let Jiu Zun get close to you. I've really underestimated you in the past!"

Big Sister Lan swirled the red wine in her goblet as she stared at Gu Ruoyun with an unfathomable look.

The surrounding sisters all looked at Gu Ruoyun with envious and jealous gazes. Being selected by Ninth Elder was like burning incense in their past life.

"Lan jie, stop teasing me. I have no choice but to do this."

Gu Ruoyun's smile was uglier than crying. If it hadn't been to protect herself, she wouldn't have been Ninth Lord's woman. Such a dangerous man might have killed her one day if he wasn't happy. She still wanted to live for a few more years.

"Xiao Jiu, tell me the truth. Yesterday night, Boss Sun was assassinated and was heavily injured. Is this matter related to you?"

elder sister Lan's secretive eyes were locked onto Gu Ruoyun as she asked in a low voice.

Gu Ruoyun's heart inexplicably shook, and her expression became unnatural. She didn't dare to let anyone know about what happened last night.

"Lan jie, what are you talking about? What does Boss Sun being assassinated have to do with me? I was with Ninth Master last night."

Gu Ru Jiu pretended to look at elder sister Lan in a natural manner. She looked directly into her eyes without the slightest bit of guilt.

"It's really not you? But last night, I clearly saw you enter Boss Sun's room. Xiao Jiu, don't blame Lan jie for not reminding you that you have to do your duty in our business. If you offend someone, you might even die without knowing how you did it. "

"Lan jie, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first."

Although he had some relationship with elder sister Lan, Gu Ruoyun understood that some things had to be kept in the pit of her stomach. Otherwise, if word of this got out, she would die even faster.

Gu Ruoyun let out a long sigh of relief as they walked out of the door. She would be leaving this place in the future. She was a bit reluctant to part with it, after all, she had stayed here for five years.

"Gu Ru Jiu, I've finally caught you today. Get the hell over here!"

A man's roar came from behind her. When Gu Ruoyun turned around and saw Tang Yi Ze's face, she didn't have time to think any further and immediately ran away.

In the past few years, she had fished out quite a bit of money from this second generation's ancestor. Furthermore, every time, she would trick him into not even touching it and would willingly pay for it.

"Gu Ru Jiu, stop right there!"

Very quickly, Gu Ru Jiu was surrounded by a few bodyguards in the middle. Tang Yi Ze was panting as he walked over, pointing at Gu Ru Jiu with a face full of anger. "Run!" Why aren't you running anymore? "How dare you fool me, let's see how I'll take care of you today!"

"Young Master Tang, if you have something to say then let's talk. At any rate, we've been friends for a long time, so how could you bear to treat me like this?"

Gu Ruoyun's heart was flustered, but on the surface she was still trying to get close to Tang Yi Ze. In Gu Ruoyun's eyes, this young master Tang was easily fooled.

But Young Master Tang's reaction today was out of her expectations, "This Young Master spent so much money on you. "I haven't even touched a hair of mine. Today, I'll have to take all the profits back!"

"Young Master Tang, I …"

"Take him away!"

Without giving Gu Ruoyun a chance to speak, at Tang Yi Ze's command, Gu Ru Jiu was forced into the car by the bodyguards.

In the luxurious room, Gu Ruoyun was directly thrown onto the bed by the bodyguard, while Tang Yi Ze walked step by step towards her.

"Young Master Tang, don't be rash. I still have something to say!"
