Prologue: The Garden of Eden
As the sun waned, red-hot blood floated in the sea of clouds, and the soft drowning of the fiery soul that was gradually cooling.
The man is tall and stands in front of a floor-to-ceiling mirror.
He buttoned his cuffs, put on the dark blue blazer resting on the back of his chair for official business, and after patiently smoothing out every fold in the delicate fabric, he picked up the red gift box that had been waiting on his desk and pushed open the office door.
"Mr. Gu." A woman with dark brown curly hair held a document in her hand, and when she saw him, her black eyes flashed like sequins.
She took the pen and put down her glasses and smiled, "Is this going on a date?" ”
The rest of the people who were busy at their desks also turned their heads.
The man walked over, and everyone looked down at the computer as if they had seen a ghost.
Only Nie Nanzhi was still looking at him teasingly, and the two separated after a few words.
Nie Nanzhi looked at the man's cold and elegant back, and the words he had just said echoed in his mind:
"Well, I'm going to meet someone important."
When she parachuted into Su's executives, he had become the head of the group, and it was not appropriate to say "old" because he was the youngest person in power she had ever seen in this position.
They have known each other for nearly three years, and Nie Nanzhi only knows that he is a lonely workaholic who leans on a tall building alone and plays with power. If the abnormality of leaving work early a few days ago can be attributed to exhaustion, then today......
She couldn't help but squint her eyes and chew on the words full of reverie.
An important person......
Leaving the drowsy twilight behind, the black Bentley drove to the outskirts, climbed the winding road, and stopped in front of a small bungalow that looked as beautiful as a flower house.
It was quiet, and occasionally the wind rustling through the treetops, the hidden chirping of black cicadas, hoarse, burning the last breath of life in the embers of late September.
The man walked up to the yellow-brown wooden door, and a small black machine on the door immediately lit up, like a strict sentry, and began to check the visitor's fingerprints, voice, face, and iris.
A green prompt appears, and after entering a complex password, the door finally opens.
Darkness and cold air struck and alarmed the plants and trees that were comfortable in the mist outside.
It is a garden that resembles Eden, with a golden and jade exterior wrapped around a steel prison inside.
And now, apparently, its warden has returned.
Leather shoes stepped up the curved staircase, and the man stood at the door of a room on the second floor, pressing his fingerprints again.
The room was so dark that even the wind sank as it passed.
Without seeing the slender figure that haunted him for the first time, the man's brows furrowed silently.
He put on his shoes, closed the door, and slowly placed the box on the table.
"Are you playing hide and seek with me?"
With a chuckle, his eyes wandered around the room, finally locking on to the conspicuous protruding silk cloth by the window.
"Let me guess, are you thinking right now, don't that mad dog find me, huh?"
The deep voice was deliberately pinched, imitating the delicate voice of the little girl, but the moment the big palm touched the curtain, the man turned around abruptly, rushed to the door with an arrow, and pressed the little man who appeared out of thin air against the door and pressed it in his arms.
The door that had just opened a crack was slammed shut.
"Sister, where else do you want to escape?"
Heavy breathing fell on his face, Su Deng's moist eyes stared at the face close at hand, his chapped lips were pursed, his thin lotus-like arms were raised, and he slapped the person in front of him hard.
The man didn't have a crooked head, kissed the corner of her mouth, reached out to smooth the slightly messy hair of her sideburns, and arranged the shoulder straps of the white skirt that slipped slightly.
"If you want to cough, when will I be locked up......" There was no water for a day, and the woman's suddenly raised voice made her cough violently.
"That's wrong, sister." The man stroked her back, "There are a lot of things in the company today, and I'm late to come back." ”
He carried her to the large soft bed in the center of the room, wrapped it around her waist from behind, and fed her water with a cup in the other hand.
The knife-like throat was slightly soothed by the sweetness and moistness, and the woman distanced herself from him.
"Gu Mo, it's been three days."
"Two days, sixteen hours and four minutes, to be exact."
"Jiang Zhou will find this place soon."
"Oh?"
Gu Mo's hand paused, put the water cup on the head of the bed, the light light in his eyes suddenly sank when he met weak water, and his fingertips turned to tease her pink lips.
"You're so confident in him?" His eyebrows were crooked, and his eyes flashed with jealousy.
"Everyone knows about my return to China, and I am the future daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, how long do you think it will take for them to rescue me? Or can you think about how many years you'll be in jail? ”
The woman bit down the knuckles that had broken into her mouth, and her teeth clenched tightly, as if to bite off the part that had reached in.
Pain appeared on Gu Mo's face, but in the next second, his other hand reached into the white skirt and walked upstream, and the soft touch spread from his fingertips to the cerebral cortex.
For a moment, happiness immediately prevailed on that pretty face.
The moisture in his eyes became blurred, and he was still calling her sister, telling her to push harder.
The woman pressed his hand, snorted in disgust, opened and closed her pink lips, and began to greet the eighteenth generation of the ancestors in front of her with the most embarrassing and vicious words in the world, and tried to have an improper relationship with the latter.
A bewitching smile bloomed at the corner of Gu Mo's mouth, knocking her down in the snow-white softness.
The angry scolding stopped abruptly, and the woman had difficulty breathing for a moment.
"Dead people, don't worry about it, my advice is......" he leaned close to her pink ear, "Sister might as well play with me directly." ”
"Get out!"
Before he could finish speaking, he brought a circle of blood on his index finger close to her lip, and the woman turned her head, but was forced to choke the back of her head.
Suddenly, with a hint of bitter fragrance, the smell of fishy rust filled the tip of the nose.
In the dim twilight, the woman's pale face and bright thin lips formed an extreme contrast, Gu Mo hooked the corners of her mouth with satisfaction, and her fingertips caressed her skin that could be broken by blowing.
"It's so pretty."
"Look good at your daddy......"
The huge shadow was pressed down in an instant, and the big palm supported half of her face, like holding a residual flower in the pouring rain, which could not be dodged, and was fragile.
The breath was taken away, and the woman frowned in pain.
Madness is like a rainstorm, and it will not rest until death.
After a long time, the two separated.
The woman gasped softly, and finally roared as if she had exploded: "You wolf ambition, insatiable dog thing, the entire Su clan is now at your feet, are you satisfied?" So far, what do you really want? ”
Gu Mo shook his head carelessly, "What do I want, will my sister not know?" ”
Suddenly, the monstrous anger died down, and Su Deng stopped struggling.
"You let me go, just remember the old love."
"Su Deng, you still dare to mention it to me!"
Anger struck, Su Deng couldn't help but close her eyes, and soon, she felt cold fingertips caress her eyelids.
"Sister, don't say that these are good or not, Amo can't listen to this."
Lunatic.
Su Deng opened her eyes and looked at the person in front of her who turned into laughter in an instant, she turned her head and looked cold.
"Gu Mo, you still treat yourself as a child, and you can grab whatever you want? Su Tanmo was really blind, and he took in your wolf-hearted mother and son. ”
She sneered, as if she remembered something, and the more she spoke, the more urgent she became.
"He's dead now, why aren't you dead? You should have died in that pickled alley on a rainy day! ”
"You're still the same as before, calling me to die when you're unhappy. But I know, my sister can't bear me. But ......"
Gu Mo touched the tip of her nose, her slender hand stroked her soft belly, and her breath was unstable.
"There is a sentence you said wrong, when I was a child, I didn't dare to do this to you, but I wished I held you, worshiped you as a god, if you want me to live, I will live, if you want me to die, I will die for you. But I later found out that this would not be a good deal, and would instead make you run away with other wild men. ”
"Didn't you just ask me what I wanted? Sister, I don't want much, this time, leave yourself to me. ”
There was a labor pain in her waist, and Su Deng's heart instantly alarmed, and she struggled with her hands and feet.
But it was a drop in the bucket, Gu Mo smiled and ripped off her tie and tied her hands to the head of the bed.
Immediately after, he got out of bed and elegantly opened the red gift box on the table.
The sound of steel colliding with the rings resounded in the dimly lit room, and Gu Mo smiled and walked towards her again.
The moment his gaze touched the object in his hand, Su Deng's eyes widened uncontrollably, as if a dying person saw the god of death dragging a cloak and holding a blood sickle like a moon approaching step by step.
"No......," she shook her head in horror.
"Sister, you don't know how much I like you, but you always want to leave me, you will never give up on me, when can you be well-behaved and stay by my side forever?"
"Are you crazy?"
Su Deng stared at the bed and shrunk his legs, but was pulled by Gu Mo, and the cold stuff was confined to the soft skin.
If someone is in Nanling at this moment, from a certain direction, with excellent eyesight, he will see a woman in a white dress with long hair like a waterfall on her shoulders in the floor-to-ceiling window covered by the woods, bent her legs at the moment, and a tall man bent down in front of her, like a wild beast prostrate on the ground, admiring the holy woman who is about to be sacrificed.
The woman's body trembled, but she could not take a step back, for the thick iron chain of her exposed ankles, which was of the right size and had trapped her, had stretched to the limit.
Low, magnetic laughter spread in the hazy light.
Gu Mo seemed to be admiring a delicate work of art, "It's so beautiful." ”
He hugged her again, "Sister, we have to settle the previous accounts slowly, we can't just pass it like this, you know?" ”
As if he didn't need a response at all, he continued to mumble.
"It's just that from now on, from your soul to your flesh and skin, everything can only be mine."
"My sister can only be mine."
A sigh fell on his ears, and Su Deng's dilated pupils were gradually enveloped in despair.
She closed her eyes, her mind flashing back to the shattered time of the past twenty-five years, and she thought of that roaring rainy day, and of the boy who was covered in mud and fell in the rain.
If only he hadn't been saved.
Su Deng felt that his consciousness gradually fell into a drowsy abyss.
If she hadn't walked into that alley, there would be nothing behind, Su Tanmo wouldn't marry Gu Shuhui, and she would never touch the dirty truth.
It will not be like now, imprisoned by her titular stepbrother in this desolate world.
