Young Master Gu, Please Be Gentle

Chapter 913

Chapter 913: Suicide

An’an’s eyelashes fluttered, she gradually stopped resisting. She ran her fingertips over that hard object, it was really... a ring.

He had tied the ring on a red string and placed it nearest to his heart. What was his intention behind that?

An’an’s heart instantly palpitated.

He wore a ring around his neck.

Was he going to propose to someone?

Who was it?

An’an felt as though her fingertip was burned by that ring around his neck, it caused her heart to flutter.

A few ladies started having a conversation outside. “That’s strange, I clearly heard some sounds, just right here.”

“That’s right, I heard it too. Someone was asking for help, it sounded like... Miss An’an.”

“Perhaps you guys heard it wrong, I didn’t hear it and there’s no one here anyway.”

The few ladies started gossiping again, “Speaking of Miss An’an, she can really have her entire life written into a novel.”

“What do you mean? Spill the beans now!”

“I met Mrs Li just a few days back. You all know Mrs Li’s son, Li Junxun, is such an eligible bachelor. The Gu and Li families had intended to have a profit-motivated marriage three years back but Mrs Li just divulged to me a few days back, Miss An’an actually had no interest in Young Master Li. She downright rejected him, saying that she could only be friends with him.”

Li Junxun...

An’an actually felt incredibly guilty towards Li Junxun. Her mother had drugged her back when they were at the Champagne Residence and sent her onto Li Junxun’s bed.

However, Li Junxun hadn’t laid a finger on her. Li Junxun had stopped everything right when she started tearing up.

An’an felt a twinge in the corner of her lip, Lu Yan had bitten her.

She quickly got herself together and her eyes met with his brown eyes. He was looking at her, his gaze passionate and slightly unsatisfied.

His gaze was passionate because she had rejected Li Junxun.

He had seen her all smiles when she was with Li Junxun that day. They were a compatible pair and he had subconsciously hidden in a corner after seeing them together. However, he hadn’t expected her to actually not have done anything with Li Junxun.

He was slightly unsatisfied because she was distracted.

She had Li Junxun in her mind while he was kissing her.

An’an glared at him angrily after she was bitten by him. She placed both hands on her chest and tried to push him away with all the might she had. But Lu Yan’s body pressed onto her, taking the chance to move his tongue inside of her mouth to deepen their kiss.

He held onto her hand, moving her hand underneath his shirt and placing it on the diamond ring hanging in front of his chest.

An’an’s lashes fluttered and her heart thumped wildly. He was tempting her with that diamond ring.

And she wasn’t able to resist such a temptation.

Once he felt her calming down and listening to him, Lu Yan smiled and his hand moved down from her waist, landing on her flat tummy.

His palm was huge, it could easily cover her entire tummy.

He made circles on her tummy with his palm, his every move gentle and tender.

“Lu Yan, I’m really not...”

His overbearing kisses had already resulted in her entire face turning blushing red. She told him softly, she really wasn’t pregnant. She could feel it, he really seemed to yearn for a child.

He was already 40 years old, who wouldn’t want to have a child, especially at his age?

Men would only yearn for children even more as they get older. They just couldn’t help but want to get their women pregnant.

They then heard the ladies speaking again. “Let me tell you a secret, this incident happened three years ago and the Gu and Lu families worked together to stop the news from being leaked but Miss An’an and Master Yan were actually... lovers!”

“Oh God!”

“I’m not done yet. Miss An’an was hospitalized three years ago for leukemia and Master Yan abandoned her to marry another woman. Remember Miss An’an’s surgery was a success, guess what she did after that?”

An’an’s pupils dilated with horror in a corner, she blanched when she heard them mention that time. The deepest, most gruesome wound of hers was going to be revealed again and all the color drained from her face.

The man’s lips had separated from hers, his attention seemingly taken away by the ladies talking outside.

What had she done three years ago?

“Miss An’an recovered from leukemia after the successful surgery three years ago and she had even gotten a gold prize in a dance competition and gained recognition in the Capital. Young masters of many distinguished families had even formed long lines to pursue her. However, news of Master Yan’s death just came one day and Miss An’an locked her room door, committing suicide by slashing her own wrist without any warning!”

“What? How could that be, Miss An’an committed suicide for Master Yan?”

“This is definitely the case. Miss An’an was sent to the hospital immediately after she had slashed her wrist and had to undergo 12 hours of emergency treatment. It was that very same day Mrs Gu gave birth to her son!”...

Lu Yan had already lost all focus and could no longer take in what the ladies were talking about outside. There was only one voice in his head—-An’an slashed her wrist to commit suicide three years ago...

She had... committed suicide before?

For him?

Lu Yan’s eyes instantly turned bloodshot. Why?

He hadn’t known the truth.

He hadn’t known at all.

He had always known about her feelings for him.

Ever since he saved her from the human peddlers and brought her home, she would always hide around and peek at him through the gap of the door. Once she saw him approaching, her face would get flushing red and she would quickly run away.

Right until she grew up, she would always say, she would make sure to protect him, forever.

He hadn’t understood how long was her ‘forever’, all he knew was that he wouldn’t be able to abandon her no matter what. She was extremely needy. When he got intimate with other women, when he got taken away by the police, even when he became a drug addict... she was still there for him. Her face would be full of tears but she would just stand there and wait for him.

Three years ago, he had been thinking about how to get rid of her. Eventually, he had gotten Butler Ye to go over when her surgery was successful, to tell her that he had gotten married to another woman and he no longer loved her. That he even despised her.

After a while, the news of his death had also spread. He thought that it was enough to get rid of her.

Over the past three years that he had spent alone in the rural area, the constant thought in his mind was whether she hated him or not. Was she happy now? Had she forgotten about him, forgetting all about their past as she enjoyed herself without him?

Relationships would always come and go. He had assumed that... she was leading a good life.

But in actual fact, she wasn’t.

She had slashed her own wrist and committed suicide.

She had chosen to follow him, and she had chosen death in the prime of her youth.

Lu Yan had been chasing his own beliefs closely over the years. He purely wanted to protect his country, his home, but unbeknownst to him, a little girl had been following behind him all along.

He was firm in his beliefs, while she was determined to protect him.

“What are you all doing here? It’s time for the photographs!” At that moment, someone ushered the gossiping women away from the corridor.
