Chapter 470: Chapter 470: He Carried Her into the Bathroom
Jiang’s mother did everything she could to slander us here…
The people whose emotions had been stirred up were pointing at us and loudly berating us.
“Hey, this shameless woman, you drove someone’s beautiful daughter to death; you’ll get your retribution. Just go die!”
“Hey, how can you still have the face to live? Why don’t you just die?”
“You have to compensate her mother, you have to apologize…”
“Right, apologize! You have to kneel down and apologize to her mother. After all, you drove her daughter to death.”
Out of nowhere, a heavyset woman yanked me away from Jian Jing’s side.
She forcefully pushed me in front of Jiang’s mother and then pressed down on my head, trying to make me kneel and apologize to her.
Seeing this, Jian Jing wanted to come and help me, but she was blocked by other women.
The doorway was densely surrounded by a large crowd, layer upon layer, both inside and out.
“We can’t let her off!”
“Apologize, apologize, she must apologize!”
There was always someone in the crowd fanning the flames, and a bunch of ignorant people joined in the commotion; after all, the spectators love a big scene.
Jian Jing was too far from me, she could only watch helplessly as I was bullied, completely at a loss for what to do.
The heavyset woman was very strong and pinned down my body.
I tried to take out my cell phone, but the moment my hand reached into my bag, someone snatched it away.
“Let me go. What you’re doing is a crime. I’ll call the police,” I shouted loudly, hoping they would come to their senses.
But the group seemed to have lost their minds, wanting to punish me in front of everyone.
My hands and wrists were seized; I couldn’t move at all. Someone took a cup of milk tea and poured it over my head.
Then, laughter erupted from the crowd.
I could feel the cold milk tea dripping down from my head, soaking into my hair, spilling onto my face and into my tears, then trickling down my cheeks into my neck.
After someone initiated this, the rest of the crowd got even more boisterous.
Some people started hurting me.
Kicking my legs, twisting my arms…
Humanity’s evil was magnified at this moment.
People abused me under the guise of ‘venting their anger.’
But I was pregnant now; I couldn’t forcefully resist them. All I could do was try my best to hug my belly and bend down to avoid their kicks.
Many onlookers were present, but astonishingly not one person called the police.
Most of them were holding their phones at the perimeter, taking pictures, seemingly eager to post this thrilling event to their social circles.
When some people’s conscience is obscured and their minds are controlled by others, all that remains is evil.
There were too many people; I couldn’t see clearly.
All I heard were curses.
I couldn’t remember how many times I had been kicked, and there was a sharp pain coming from my arms.
But in front of me was only Jiang’s mother’s sinister smile.
As if all of this was orchestrated by her…
Just then, a thunderous shout descended from above.
“Let her go, whoever dares to touch her again is asking for death!”
The figure of a man descended like a deity before me.
I heard the screams of other women; the grip on my wrists was then released.
I was lifted up and carried away from the crowd.
Then, I was carried into a car.
At that moment, I, who had been terribly frightened, couldn’t control my body from trembling continuously.
He didn’t speak; he just bent down and held me tightly.
“Sir, where to?” Bodyguard Awu asked.
“Back to Yijia!”
A deep voice resonated.
The car navigated through the city, speeding towards the island.
On the way, he just kept holding me without letting go or speaking a word.
Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the mansion, and Gu Yuanzhou carried me all the way into the bedroom.
He headed straight for the shower…
As he was about to undress me, I grabbed his hand with a blushing face,
“No, let me do it!”
All he said in a deep voice was, “Don’t move!”
It was only in the bathroom’s full-length mirror that I saw the mess I was in.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Milk tea was all over my hair, along with some tapioca pearls and taro paste clumped together, sticking to my hair with various dirt.
If it was just up to me, I really wouldn’t be able to clean it all off.
So I stopped struggling.
He helped me take off my coat, leaving only a black lace vest underneath.
His hand rested on the strap of the lace, gently caressing it as if pondering something.
After a few seconds, he withdrew his hand.
Then, he picked up the showerhead and began to rinse my hair…
“Maybe lie in the bathtub!”
I had injuries, and he didn’t dare to fill the tub, so he lifted me into the bathtub to lie down and placed my head outside it.
He brought over a chair and placed it outside the tub.
Then, he positioned my head on the chair, and squatting beside me, he carefully washed the stains from my hair, fingers working gently through my strands.
I didn’t speak, remaining silent throughout.
The scene from just earlier had indeed scared me.
Having experienced a lifetime of life and death, I considered myself quite strong-hearted and thought I could hold on.
But I didn’t expect to feel so vulnerable at that moment.
For an instant back there, I was literally scared stiff.
Thinking about it now still gives me shivers… Upon reflection, it’s not that I’ve become timid, it’s because of the pregnancy; the small life inside me has increased my will to survive.
I’m afraid of accidents because I want to live on, to healthy deliver the child.
“You just let yourself be bullied like that without running away?”
Gu Yuanzhou asked in a deep voice next to my ear.
“It was an accident!”
After thinking for a long time, I gave him that answer.
Gu Yuanzhou let out a cold laugh. He continued rinsing my hair with the running water; after my hair was clean, he took a hairdryer.
He dried my hair with great care, then wrapped it up with a hair cap.
“Do you need help cleaning the rest of your body?”
“No, I can do it myself!”
I firmly refused, meeting his deep gaze.
He chuckled lightly, “What’s the point of covering up, I’ve seen it all before anyway.”
“What was our relationship before and what is it now? It’s best to avoid suspicion. I don’t want Anqi to find out.”
Gu Yuanzhou got up. My mess had dirtied him as well, with stains of spilled tea all over his suit.
This was so out of line with his usual cleanliness and tidiness; at the moment, he didn’t seem to notice the filth on himself but instead sneered at me.
“You’re afraid Ding Yinuo will find out, aren’t you?”
“You!!!”
“Where is your phone?”
He asked.
Thinking hard, I couldn’t remember who had snatched my phone, so I could only shake my head,
“I don’t know, my bag was stolen too.”
“Who is that old lady?”
“Jiang Jiaying’s mother!”
“Heh…”
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanzhou’s expression turned ugly.
At that moment, hurried footsteps sounded outside, accompanied by a shout, “Hey, Mr. Ding…”
