At the same time, Gu Yunting received all the information about Jun Lichen. His expression turned grim as he looked at the documents in his hand. Jun Lichen was his father's illegitimate son!
Suddenly, something clicked. He immediately dialed Ye Wan's number. The phone rang several times before being answered, and Ye Wan's娇滴滴 voice came through, "Senior, you're so naughty. Be gentle, you're hurting me... Mmm!"
In that instant, Gu Yunting felt as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had cracked. His heart felt like it had split in two, a sharp pain piercing his chest. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth!
Ye Wan, you actually dared to betray me!
...
When Ye Wan woke up, her head was pounding. What made her even more despairing was that she was completely naked, her body covered in bruises and marks... She knew very well what this signified!
Ye Wan's mind was in a chaotic mess. She immediately looked for clothes, but there was nothing in the room.
The door to the room was violently kicked open, and a group of people rushed in. The man at the forefront had an icy expression. Gu Yunting looked at the girl on the bed with a blank face, the last glimmer of light in his eyes extinguished.
The bodyguards searched the room but couldn't find Jun Lichen. Ye Wan kept staring at Gu Yunting, her face deathly pale. Her fingers clutched the quilt tightly, and she remained silent.
Gu Yunting waved his hand, dismissing the bodyguards. He walked to the bedside and grabbed Ye Wan's slender neck. Ye Wan knew what he hated the most and that she was likely doomed today. She closed her eyes in resignation.
"Where is the man you love? Did he sleep with you and then run off? Is this coward the one you fell in love with?" Gu Yunting's hand on her neck wasn't overly strong. If not for his terrifying gaze, one might have thought he wasn't that bothered.
"I don't know, I don't know anything. I don't love him." Ye Wan's lips trembled as she looked at him. She was also very scared now and wanted to ask Jun Lichen what was going on.
"Am I that easy to fool? Do you think I'm an idiot?" Gu Yunting suddenly became enraged. He fiercely gripped Ye Wan's neck. In that moment, Ye Wan felt death approaching. She could no longer breathe.
Ye Wan gently closed her eyes. She didn't struggle like before. Today, she waited to die obediently. If she had indeed slept with Jun Lichen, she felt too filthy!
Unable to inhale air, Ye Wan felt an unbearable pain in her chest, as if her chest would explode. Finally, her head lolled to the side, and she fainted from Gu Yunting's chokehold.
Gu Yunting looked at the girl who seemed dead. His hand released her as if burned. He looked at the girl with tightly shut eyes, who appeared to be dead, and his heartbeat seemed to stop...
Had she really died?
Gu Yunting's trembling fingers reached out to touch her nostrils. No breath...
He quickly laid her flat on the bed and began chest compressions, performing CPR. After more than twenty compressions, he pinched her nose and gave her artificial respiration.
No, she couldn't die yet! She had done something to betray him, and he hadn't gotten his revenge. Dying like this would be too easy for her!
After a few attempts, Ye Wan finally coughed and started breathing. Her long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.
"I really... really don't know what happened. I don't love him."
Tears rolled down the girl's eyes as she weakly explained to him.
Gu Yunting didn't look at her again and turned to leave, quickly exiting the room. If he stayed any longer, he feared he might be unable to resist the urge to choke her to death again!
