Chapter 27: Protection
Jiang Li struggled to break free, but the more she struggled, the tighter her arms tightened her throat and eyes, and she didn't dare to move until she couldn't breathe, her eyes were covered with black cloth, and she couldn't feel where she was.
After a while, it felt as if she had been taken to a place, and it was very spacious, and the place where she sat was soft like the edge of the bed, and she couldn't hear anything in her ears.
Suddenly, the black cloth on his eyes was taken away, and Jiang Li, who had regained his sight, was very uncomfortable, squinting at the surrounding environment, only to see a person standing in front of him, and was stunned when he looked closely, "Xu Hao, why are you?"
"Of course it's me, I haven't seen you for a long time, do you miss me very much?" Xu Hao touched her cheek, Jiang Li only felt disgusted, and turned her head to avoid it.
Xu Hao was used to her attitude, and he was not angry, he pinched her chin and forced her to look at herself, warning her: "This is not your territory, you better listen to me obediently!"
"What the hell are you going to do?" Jiang Li became alert, looking around as if it was in a hotel, calculating that the time to arrive here should be near the hotel.
"When I was in the company before, Qin Lang protected you, and I don't know what tricks you used to make Qin Lang so obedient to you, I thought that if he left his job, I would be able to get you, but I didn't expect you to be quite fast, and you hooked up with a man again, you are really sassy. ”
Xu Hao spoke, leaned into her ear and blew gently, Jiang Li's ears were the most sensitive, and it was not good to tremble and be soft when she blew like this, trying to keep herself calm.
"I have a serious relationship with Qin Lang, and you are not allowed to insult him!" In any case, she couldn't tolerate others saying that Qin Lang was not.
"At this time, you still have to protect you, and now there is no one to save you. ”
As he spoke, Xu Hao pushed her down on the bed, and with a slight pull, Jiang Li's coat was gone, revealing the suspender belt inside, and Xu Hao's eyes were red.
"I tell you, don't mess around, or you'll regret it!"
"If I don't mess around, I'll regret it even more!" Xu Hao had been blinded by the anger that had accumulated for a long time, and he didn't care about anything and went up directly.
Jiang Li was tied hand and foot, unable to move, just blindly struggling and twisting to get rid of his restraints, and kept screaming in her mouth to be heard.
But it didn't seem to be of much use, Xu Hao was even more unscrupulous, and the action was getting deeper and deeper, Jiang Li bit him on the shoulder with a ruthless heart, and bit him very hard.
"Ahh
Jiang Li collapsed on the bed panting, her arms arched over the quilt to cover her body, and she stared at him viciously: "What don't I dare? I will bite you if you come over again!"
Xu Hao checked his shoulder, but he was bitten out of the mark, and there was nothing serious, and he said angrily: "Jiang Li, don't be arrogant, I advise you to serve me well, otherwise I will cancel the place in the designer competition you dreamed of!"
As soon as she heard the designer competition, Jiang Li became nervous, "What do you mean?"
"My dad is the person in charge of the competition, he has this right, if you listen to me, I guarantee that you will be the champion, what about this condition?"
Xu Hao's father turned out to be the person in charge of the competition? This is something Jiang Li didn't expect, if so, then wouldn't there be no winning rate at all in the subsequent rounds of PK?
Seeing her hesitation, as Xu Hao imagined, no one could refuse this temptation, after all, there were many people scrambling to catch up with a place.
Just as Xu Hao approached, Jiang Li came back to his senses and refused: "I won't give in, and I won't believe that the quota can be canceled so easily...... You ......"
Before Jiang Li's words were finished, Xu Hao had already stopped her, "I don't care if you give in or not, now I have the final say!"
……
In the building in the center of Jiangcheng, Li Yuan came in with a document and put it on Gu Cun's desk, reminding him, "Mr. Gu, you have an appointment with Miss Jiang in the evening, and the time is up." ”
Gu Cun rubbed his eyebrows, withdrew from work, looked at his mobile phone, it was past the appointed time, and hurriedly picked up his coat and prepared to go out.
When he walked to the door, he was blocked by Ling Xiaotian, who pushed the door in.
"When will you know how to knock on the door to enter?"
"Oh, do we still need to knock on the door for the relationship between the two of us?" Ling Xiaotian didn't like these messy etiquette, and when he saw him going out with his coat, he asked, "Are you going out?" Old Tang came back tonight and said that he would eat together!"
"No, I have something. ”
"What can you do? Brotherhood, you still want to escape?"
Gu Cun replied to him with two words: "Dating." ”
Ling Xiaotian didn't have to think about it to know that it must be with Jiang Li, he pursed his lips and didn't speak, anyway, whatever he said Gu Cun would pass the same, it was better to save some effort.
The booked hotel is not far from the city center, and it is a place to drive through two intersections, it is a place to eat, the parking space is almost full, people coming and going, Gu Cun went up to the second floor, I thought that Jiang Li was already waiting, but I pushed the door open and saw nothing.
Jiang Li got off work half an hour early, and it was impossible to be late, and when she dialed the phone, she couldn't get through, and Gu Cun felt that something was wrong.
Today she invited him to dinner, and it was impossible to miss the appointment, this is not like Jiang Li's style, so she immediately called Li Yuan and asked her to check where Jiang Li was.
Out of the box, he grabbed a waiter and asked, "Did Miss Jiang, who booked the box, see it?"
"She arrived half an hour ago, and then it was not clear. ”
This point is the peak period of the meal, people come and go and don't pay attention to the details, and then Gu Cun called someone to adjust the monitoring, and then, a video came on the mobile phone, it was Jiang Li who never came out after entering the box of the hotel.
However, the sharp-eyed Gu stored the video, and saw that there were people in the box, and a pair of arms hooked Jiang Li's neck, and sure enough, someone took him away.
Seeing this, Gu Cun's face became gloomy, and he instructed Li Yuan to find Jiang Li's whereabouts nearby.
Gu Cun, who was sitting in the car, was anxious, and he was targeted by someone when he was not around for a moment, who would do such a thing to Jiang Li at this time?
Skipping a person in your mind, Kang Chenqing?
Kang Chenqing still has some understanding, although he can't say how bright and upright, but his character is quite trustworthy, he was excluded, looked up at the building in front of him, it was a hotel, and he could clearly see the scene of the ten-story building from his place, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Li Yuan, go to the hotel in front and have a look. With that, he got out of the car and followed.
Gu Cun went up to the tenth floor and saw Li Yuan, pointed to room 1016 and said, "After watching the surveillance, Miss Jiang is inside." ”
He could have pushed the door in, but no one knew what would happen inside, so he still had to wait until Gu Cun came to make a decision.
"Kick the door open. ”
At the sound of an order, Li Yuan raised his foot and kicked it violently, and the door of the room was pushed open, and at the same time, a familiar voice was heard shouting.
Gu Cun ran in in a panic, and saw Jiang Li being pressed there by Xu Hao and couldn't move, only Jiang Li was desperately protecting the corner on his body, Gu Cun's eyes were red, and Li Yuan turned his head to avoid his gaze when he saw this scene.
"Fuck, who dares to spoil Lao Tzu's ......" Before Xu Hao's words were finished, he was knocked down by Gu Cun's oncoming fist.
Gu Cun took off his coat and put it on her, and as soon as his hand touched Jiang Li's forehead, Jiang Li turned his head to dodge, trembling all over.
"Don't be afraid, it's me. Gu Cun's gentle voice softened Jiang Li's emotions a little, and she cried the moment she opened her eyes and saw him.
"Hmm...... Why are you here now?"
"I'm sorry, I'm late. Gu Cun carefully held her in his arms and comforted her softly.
Xu Hao on the ground slowed down, struggled to get up from the ground, wiped the corners of his mouth, blood stains spread out in his hands, and he cursed what to do, and before he took two steps, Li Yuan grabbed his arm and turned it back hard, with a bang, like the sound of bones breaking.
"Ah!!" Xu Hao screamed in pain.
"Okay, it's okay, I'll take you away now. Gu Cun stabilized Jiang Li's emotions, hugged him horizontally, and when he passed by Xu Hao's side, he stopped and kicked with his foot, "Move my person, teach him a good lesson!"
"Okay, Mr. Gu. ”
When the two left the room, they only heard the sound of Xu Hao crying wolf behind them, and no one knew what was going on inside, but they all knew one thing, that is, Xu Hao must have been beaten very badly.
The driver of the family was already waiting in the car, and by the way, he brought Jiang Li's change of clothes, the middle partition was closed, and there were only the two of them in the back seat.
"Obedient, shall we put on our clothes properly?" Gu Cun coaxed Jiang Li like a child.
In his arms, Jiang Li felt a lot more relieved, nodded silently, and let Gu Cun help her get dressed, and when she touched her arm, she saw a faint red mark on it, and she didn't have to think about it to know that Xu Hao did it.
"You're not going to tell me how he harassed you when you were in the company before?"
Jiang Li pursed her lips and told him about the elevator and the previous events after a long time, but Xu Hao couldn't succeed in those few times, and this time he got a chance.
By the way, he said...... His dad is the person in charge of the designer contest and will give me a place. Jiang Li said the key.
Gu Cun sneered, "His father, nothing in my eyes!"
Jiang Li looked at him in a daze, the current Gu Cun was even more terrifying than the angry appearance before, would he look at himself with such eyes one day in the future?
Gu Cun noticed her panic, patted her head and hugged her into his arms and said, "Don't worry, I'll solve it, everything is up to me, you just have to sit on your own business." ”
Jiang Li leaned on his arms, thinking of the worry in his eyes when he pushed the door in just now, except for Qin Lang, the second man was really worried about her, and couldn't help but think, what would it look like if she tried to accept him?
Secretly shook his head and blamed himself for being ridiculous.
When she arrived at the door, Gu Cun insisted on carrying her in, and told the housekeeper to call a doctor to come and examine her to see if there were any other injuries.
Before he entered the living room, he heard the noisy talking inside, Ling Xiaotian was chatting happily with a man, and fell on the sofa laughing, and happened to see Gu Cun coming back, beckoning him to come over, "Gu Cun, come quickly, Old Tang just told a very funny joke, and I laughed to death......"
As he spoke, he noticed that he was holding a person in his hand, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly, "How old are you, you can't walk by yourself, and you still have to be hugged by someone, do you really take yourself seriously?"
"Ling Xiaotian, be careful when you speak, don't be so big about the movement, someone needs to rest!" Gu Cun warned him, and nodded to Tang Yuyang as a greeting.
Jiang Li had almost recovered, and although she was stuffed in Gu Cun's arms, she still heard Ling Xiaotian's words, and she was always full of hostility towards her.
Back in the room, Gu Cun helped her cover the quilt and said, "The doctor will come to check on you in a while, you have a good rest, and you need to tell me if you need anything." ”
"Don't you have friends coming, go and spend time with them, I'm fine. ”
"Now you're the one who matters, and they can do it at any time. Gu Cun found a new coat from the closet to change into for himself, and sat on the edge of the bed to accompany her.
Jiang Li felt an indescribable warmth in her heart, and her hand holding him tightened a little, and when she was about to fall asleep in a daze, the door opened, and the housekeeper came in with the doctor.
In the living room, Tang Yuyang was not surprised at all when he saw Gu Cun coming back with a woman, but persuaded Ling Xiaotian, "Why are you still so angry?
"If it weren't for this woman, Gu Cun would have been with her a long time ago, and we could also have a cup of wine, I don't understand, what's so good about this Jiangli, Gu Cun seems to be enchanted!" Ling Xiaotian became more and more angry the more he spoke, and took a big sip of wine from his wine glass.
Tang Yuyang smiled slightly, "Emotional things don't make sense, you don't understand." ”
"It's like you know it very well, have you ever been in love!"
Whether he has been in love or not, Ling Xiaotian really doesn't know, Tang Yuyang is always reluctant to say more about feelings, and he is not easy to ask.
"Brother!" A tall girl ran over, put her arms around Tang Yuyang's neck, and rubbed it, "I saw Brother Gu bring someone back just now, and I called a doctor, is my sister-in-law uncomfortable?"
This girl is Tang Yuyang's sister Tang Yuyao, if you want to talk about who is the favorite sister crazy demon, then Tang Yuyang must be the one second to none.
Accustomed to Tang Yuyao's commotion, he shook his head helplessly to correct her words, "I don't see who the person is, don't talk nonsense, otherwise your big brother Gu will be unhappy." ”
"Hmm, what do you mean?" Tang Yuyao didn't understand too much, and when asked Tang Yuyang again, he just didn't speak.
After making a fuss for a while, Gu Cun and the doctor came out of the room, returned to the sofa and sat down after being sent to the door, and asked, "When did you come back?"
"An hour ago, you were busy with other things, and I don't want to bother you. Tang Yuyang had something to say.
"Brother Gu, I want to go and see my sister-in-law, can I?" Tang Yuyao was very curious about who the person inside was, and felt very mysterious.
Gu Cun was very satisfied with this title, and patted her head, "Your sister-in-law is uncomfortable to rest inside, let her come out later." ”
"Oh well. Tang Yuyao's curiosity was interrupted, but fortunately, Tang Yuyang brought her something delicious, which made her feel better.
After Jiang Li's examination, there is no problem except for the slap on his face, just apply ice for a while, and you can hear the noise outside through the door, and the friends who want to come to Gu Cun should be very happy to find him, right?
I was bored, so I took the computer over and drew a few pictures at random.
In the middle of the night, the door opened, Gu Cun came in with a bowl, saw her working, and took the computer away, "Didn't you say that you had a good rest?
"I couldn't sleep, and I was bored, so I just drew a few random pictures. ”
"Are you hungry? ”
The food in the bowl was still hot, Jiang Li took two bites with chopsticks, "I said that I would like to thank you for inviting you to dinner, but it turned out to be ......"
"Don't mention the unhappy things, this matter is over, can't you want to know in the future?"
Jiang Li nodded, and suddenly thought that before leaving, Gu Cun asked Li Yuan to teach him a good lesson, and he didn't hear Li Yuan come back until now, should he give people ......
"By the way, what did Xu Hao do?"
"Dispose of it as you do!"
"It won't be ......"
Jiang Li understood what she was going to say, and held her hand to tell her not to be afraid, "It's not what you think, after all, the rule of law society is not enough." ”
Jiang Li suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, it was not as exaggerated as she imagined.
Knock knock, someone knocked on the door, and Tang Yuyang's voice came, "Gu Cun, you have been in there for a long time, if your sister-in-law has nothing to do, come out together." ”
"Do you want to go out?" Gu Cun asked her opinion.
"If Ling Xiaotian doesn't quarrel with me, I can think about it. Jiang Li has also learned to joke.
Gu Cun smiled and hugged her out of bed, "He didn't dare." ”
A few minutes later, Jiang Li came out behind Gu Cun and saw Tang Yuyang himself, if Gu Cun is a handsome guy, then Tang Yuyang is too, but the two are handsome, Gu Cun belongs to the handsome kind of tough guy image, while Tang Yuyang belongs to the ancient scholars, with fair skin and smiling eyebrows, giving people a very comfortable feeling.
At the same time, Jiang Li also noticed that they were looking at her, and there was a very hateful gaze, needless to say, she knew that it was Ling Xiaotian.
Ignoring him, he greeted Tang Yuyang, "Hello, I'm Jiang Li." ”
"Hello sister-in-law, I'm Tang Yuyang, by the way, I'll introduce you, this is my sister Tang Yuyao. As he spoke, a girl with a head smaller than him came out from behind him.
"Hello, the new sister-in-law is also very beautiful. ”
"New sister-in-law?" Jiang Li was very strange about this title and looked at Gu Cun.
"It's nothing, my sister greets you differently, it's the first time I see you. Tang Yuyang explained, quietly giving Tang Yuyao a look and asking her to pay attention to speaking.
"I see. ”
Jiang Li didn't mind, sat beside Gu Cun, listened to them chatting, and knew that Tang Yuyang had just returned from a business trip, and now he was going to settle down in Jiangcheng.
After chatting for a while, Li Yuan came back, and he didn't know what he said in Gu Cun's ear, his expression did not change, Jiang Li didn't hear what he said, and it was estimated that it was about Xu Hao.
"Let's go to the study and talk about work, and you two will sit here for a while. ”
"Good. ”
"Yaoyao, take care of your sister-in-law. Tang Yuyang took care of it.
Tang Yuyao watched them leave, and when the others left, they sat down beside Jiang Li, "Sister-in-law, why did Brother Gu hold you when you came back just now? Is it inconvenient for you?"
"Uh...... I wasn't feeling well, so ......"
Tang Yuyao looks like a child, in fact, she is in her twenties, and Tang Yuyang is about three years apart, but if you look closely, the two are not very similar.
Tang Yuyao didn't ask much, and chatted casually about other things.
Upstairs in the study, the three of them sat down around the desk, Tang Yuyang spoke first, "I've seen the project in Pingchuan, you can do it, but I think you need to go over in person and talk to the person in charge of the project, and see when you have time." ”
"That's no problem, it's going to be postponed in time, and I've got a bit of an urgent matter to deal with lately. As Gu Cun spoke, he received a miserable photo of Xu Hao on his mobile phone, and sent it to a person.
"Is it my sister-in-law's business?" Tang Yuyang guessed.
"Part of that, part of it, part of it. ”
Ling Xiaotian was a little unhappy, he had been sulking since he came back with Jiang Li in his arms today, and he was even more unhappy when he heard this, "Is this woman causing trouble for you outside?" I know that she is a troublemaker!"
"Hey, Xiaotian, how did you speak? Now this person is a sister-in-law, and you can't talk like this in the future. ”
"I'm right, do you know what she did to me some time ago? Damn, I've never been wronged like this!" Ling Xiaotian saw that his brother was back, and he didn't care about the problem of face.
Tang Yuyang was very surprised, he and Ling Xiaotian had known each other for so long, and he had really never heard of anyone daring to touch him, looking at Gu Cun, he nodded silently, this matter could not be fake.
"Yo, it seems that this sister-in-law has a bit of a temper. ”
Gu Cun revealed the truth and said, "Didn't you apologize to her?"
"I ......" Ling Xiaotian wanted to refute, but he couldn't find any suitable words, so he didn't speak.
Gu Cun coughed lightly, "Let's get back to the topic, I'm definitely going to Pingchuan, after all, it's related to the company's project, but it has to be arranged later, and the rest will be discussed after the meeting tomorrow when I arrive at the company." ”
"That's fine. ”
After chatting about this, the three of them went downstairs and saw Tang Yuyao and Jiang Li chatting hotly, Tang Yuyang went over to call her, "Okay, don't disturb your sister-in-law to rest, there will be time to chat in the future." ”
"Really, I'm not done yet. ”
Gu Cun walked up to Jiang Li and said with concern: "Are you okay?"
"I'm much better. Tang Yuyao chatted with her about some interesting things just now, and the previous fright was completely gone.
Sending them to the door, Tang Yuyao almost stuck to Tang Yuyang, and Jiang Li felt that the relationship between the two brothers and sisters was not ordinarily good, and it was a bit beyond the brother-sister relationship......
Tang Yuyao in front didn't notice it, and leaned into Tang Yuyang's ear and whispered: "Brother, I feel that this new sister-in-law is better to get along with than Sister-in-law Qian! Why is Sister-in-law Qian not here? What did she do?"
The voice was not very loud, but Jiang Li was just behind them, and she heard this sentence impartially, her expression was stunned, as if she understood the reason why she called her new sister-in-law, so who was the sister-in-law in her mouth?
