Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Although she had never left the Gu family’s villa, she was still very familiar with its location. That was why she dared to break into the central area at night. 𝑓𝘳ℯ𝒆w𝘦𝘣𝙣𝘰ѵ𝘦𝚕.c𝗼𝓶
She dodged the patrolling soldiers easily and jumped over the wall to enter. As soon as she jumped in, she was seen by a soldier. Before he could shout, Su Shanshan blocked his mouth with an ice cube. The soldier froze for a moment. Su Shanshan quickly went up to knock him out, placed him on the
ground, and left after apologizing.
Following the route in her memory, she arrived outside the Gu family’s villa and located Gu Jincheng’s room easily through a window on the third floor. After all, she had lived in this room for almost a year. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚
She quickly scaled up the wall to the third floor and gently opened the window to enter, but there was no one inside. From the outside, she saw that the light in this room was lit, and she thought that Gu Jincheng was inside.
As soon as she moved, a figure rushed out of a dark comer and pressed her against the wall. Someone was grabbing her neck.
Both of them looked at each other. Under the faint light, their expressions were completely different.
Su Shanshan, who was being strangled, did not panic. She looked at Gu Jincheng in front of her and could only see coldness and unfamiliarity in his eyes. A strange feeling arose in her heart. Why doesn’t he seem to know me? she wondered.
“Who are you and what are your motives for coming here?” Gu Jincheng saw this woman who had troubled him for the entire day and recognized her at first glance. He saw this woman twice in a day. His eyes darkened. Could it be that she was sent over by another base?
With this in mind, he tightened his grip.
Su Shanshan widened her eyes and couldn’t care less that he was choking her. She was so shocked that her voice became a little shrill. “You don’t know me?”
Gu Jincheng leaned forward to get closer to her. He exerted more force with his hands and asked, “Should I know you?”
Su Shanshan’s face was red from being choked. A tear fell onto Gu Jincheng’s hand. He seemed to be scalded by the warmth of the tear. He suddenly let go of her and took a step back.
His heart ached, and it hurt even more than the headache that troubled him, as if he had lost his most precious treasure.
Su Shanshan was about to say something when a woman’s voice suddenly came from outside the door. “Brother Jincheng, are you asleep? I got you a glass of milk.”
Liu Zhixi appeared at the door in a flimsy nightdress. She looked at the milk in her hand with determination in her eyes. It was not easy for her to get the medicine she had put in there. It had been a year. She had been with Gu Jincheng for a year, but he had never been willing to touch her. Today, she
must win him over and make herself the mistress of the Gu family.
Su Shanshan’s expression changed, and she pushed Gu Jincheng away angrily.
Brother Jin Cheng? He actually let another woman call him that? she thought.
And giving milk! Ha!
Her fierce expression made Gu Jincheng purse his lips slightly, feeling guilty for some reason.
Su Shanshan opened the door and was enraged when she saw Liu Zhixi in her nightdress.
“Su Shanshan! Why are you here?” Liu Zhixi was even more surprised and almost dropped the milk in her hand.
Su Shanshan… Gu Jincheng’s heart skipped a beat. This name made his head hurt even more. He instinctively walked to this woman’s side but was punched in the eye by the angry Su Shanshan.
This action stunned Gu Jincheng. This was the first time someone dared to hit him. He touched the wound on his eye, surprised that he was not angry. If it were anyone else, he would have killed him.
Liu Zhixi was also shocked. She had long heard that Su Shanshan was unruly and unreasonable. She was spoiled by Gu Jincheng and did not give him face at all. She did not expect that this was true. After seeing that Gu Jincheng was not angry even when he was punched, the surprise in her heart turned to
anger.. Why should Gu Jincheng give her special treatment even when he no longer remembers her?
