Jiang Mi nodded immediately. This was all her responsibility. She had brought Ye Wan here, and now something like this had happened. She felt very guilty.
After everyone had left, Jiang Mi quickly changed Ye Wan's wet clothes. Seeing her in such a state when she had arrived perfectly fine, Jiang Mi couldn't help but cry.
...
Gu Yunting sent people to investigate why Ye Wan had jumped into the sea. Chu Ziyin said that the surveillance cameras on that floor happened to be broken, so nothing could be found.
He stood in the room, looking out at the surging sea, smoking one cigarette after another. His annoyance was evident. His mind was filled with the image of Ye Wan cutting herself to save him, blood gushing out...
Shouldn't she hate him? Shouldn't she wish for his death so she could gain her freedom...
Why did she still save him?
The more he thought about it, the more agitated he became. The cigarette butt had burned to his fingertips before he snapped back to reality. He extinguished the butt in the ashtray and turned to leave the guest room.
Jiang Jingxiu stood outside the door, idly playing with a lighter in his hand. A cold smile played on his lips. Jiang Mi, his good sister, it had been a long time...
When Gu Yunting returned, Jiang Mi could only leave for now. She didn't know why, but she wasn't worried at all that this man would do something to Ye Wan.
But this man seemed to have a girlfriend. She had to remind Ye Wan to stay away from him. A man with a girlfriend was a bomb, absolutely not to be touched!
...
Gu Yunting sat by the bed, his gaze fixed on the girl on the bed. Her expression had calmed down considerably now, not as pained as before.
He gently pushed up her sleeve, revealing the blood-soaked gauze. The thought of her recklessness made him agitated again. Gu Yunting suddenly reached out and gripped Ye Wan's slender, long neck.
With a slight exertion, he could end this endless torment. His fingers tightened. Just one swift move, and he could take her life!
Her breath was stolen, and Ye Wan suddenly struggled. She raised her hand to pry off Gu Yunting's hand, her eyes flying open. She looked at him in horror. He was actually trying to strangle her.
Seeing that she was awake, Gu Yunting showed no panic. He slowly withdrew his hand. Ye Wan tried to sit up with all her might. As she exerted force, the gauze was quickly saturated with blood.
"Lie down!" Gu Yunting stopped her, making her lie back down.
"If you want my life, I can give it to you." Ye Wan looked at him with a calm expression. It wasn't that she wasn't afraid of death, but she had long been prepared to pay with her life.
"Death would be too easy for you. You should live well and atone for your sins." Gu Yunting said and then turned and left expressionlessly.
Ye Wan let out a long sigh. Although she wasn't afraid of death, she didn't want to die either. Who would choose to die if given the chance to live?
Jiang Mi came in again. Ye Wan saw her and quickly sat up, asking, "Can I get paid today?"
The two thousand yuan was very important to her.
"Yes, don't worry. Just lie there and rest." Jiang Mi was truly impressed by her. After a brush with death, she was still most concerned about the two thousand yuan payment.
This was the tragedy of the poor.
Ye Wan was still uneasy. She reached out and pulled out the IV needle from the drip and said, "I should go out then. I'm really fine."
It was just a bit more bleeding, nothing serious.
"Ye Wan!" Jiang Mi was so angry with her. She was so weak now, did she really not want her life?
"Even if you want to make money, you have to take care of your health first! If something happens to you, you'll never be able to earn money again."
