My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy - Chapter 332
Chapter 332: Chapter 332 Strangled by Him_1
Gu Yuanzhou’s dominance was simply suffocating.
He wouldn’t take a single step back, and I felt like he was holding me in the palm of his hand, firmly grasping my throat and vital parts.
I was like a fish on his chopping board, all my struggles were of a dying, futile nature.
I held the phone, my fists clenched tightly.
The suffocation in my heart lingered for a long time…
On the street corner, where the lights were dim, an old man was pushing a cart, selling pineapples. Next to the neatly stacked pineapples was a gleaming fruit knife.
I touched my abdomen, where a scar left by Ayu remained.
I pulled out a red banknote from my bag and handed it to the old man,
“I want that…”
“Miss, are you buying pineapples? This money can buy a lot of pineapples. Our pineapples are big and sweet, very juicy. Which one would you like?”
“Old man, I just want that knife!”
The old man was visibly shocked.
But he still hesitantly handed me the knife, and very thoughtfully wrapped it up in a plastic bag,
“Miss, be careful, I’ve sharpened this knife for a long time, it’s very sharp. It’s quick at peeling and slicing fruits, just be careful not to cut your hand.”
“Can it kill a person?”
I asked with a smile.
The old man looked horrified and quickly said, “I’m not selling this knife.”
“Just kidding, don’t take it to heart!”
I waved my hand, stuffed the knife into my bag, and then flagged down a taxi by the roadside.
In the car, I looked at the busy traffic and the crowds on the streets…
And then I thought of my life.
I had died once before!
That was when I met Ding Yinuo!
So, if I were to die again, what would Ding Yinuo do?
A cold liquid slid from the corner of my eye; I quietly wiped it away.
My breathing was momentarily obstructed; I took out a tissue, dabbed away the moist trace from the corner of my eye, then pulled out a mirror and reapplied my makeup.
Applying foundation to not look too haggard.
Carefully applying blush to make my complexion seem brighter.
After touching up my makeup, the car just happened to arrive at the foot of Huaxin Group’s building.
Looking through the car window, it was as if I could see the time, ten years ago, when I had just started dating Gu Yuanzhou.
I often came here to find him.
Whenever we met, he would excitedly pick me up and spin around in place. Back then, the whole world I saw was pink.
When I looked at him, everything seemed perfect.
He was full of highlights, the entire world seemed to be his image.
He filled my every thought.
Now looking back, I was just like a moth to a flame.
So foolish, so stupid…
At this time, it was already 6:30 in the evening.
According to this schedule, Huaxin Group would have finished work already.
The company normally closed at five o’clock.
Logically, by this time the company should have been empty except for the security staff.
But when I walked in, I saw a shocking scene.
It seemed a regular meeting had just ended, and all the senior executives of the company, surrounded Gu Yuanzhou as they filed out of the meeting room.
Gu Yuanzhou’s proud and dark silhouette was full of presence.
As if he were the king of this place.
If such a scene had been at Zhenyi Company, it wouldn’t have meant anything.
But this was Huaxin Group, my uncle’s company, the one he had snatched away…
Moreover, he was flaunting this set-up in front of me on purpose, which was nothing but an attempt to humiliate me, to make me feel embarrassed.
I just stood quietly in the lobby, watching these executives nod and bow to him, saying to him, “Goodbye, President Gu!”
He stood there, chin raised high, thoroughly enjoying that respectful demeanor from others.
Until the last person left.
Only then did he turn to look at me. “Well?”
I looked back at him meaningfully, my face composed, calm and self-assured.
“None of these people know I am Song Yun! So, if you want to use them to humiliate me, it’s pointless. I can’t feel their mockery.”
Gu Yuanzhou glanced at me and chuckled lightly, “Me, humiliate you?”
“Is that not what you are doing?”
“I just wanted you to see clearly that I understand how to manage this company better than your uncle does!”
“That sounds nice, but I don’t believe it!”
My simple four words angered him easily once again.
He reached out and grabbed me by the collar.
I thought he would rage, but unexpectedly, he slowly let go and bent his head to straighten my collar for me.
Then he asked, “Where would you like to go for dinner?”
“Doesn’t it all depend on Mr. Gu’s word? Do my words count for anything?”
“Can’t you just talk to me nicely?”
“If Mr. Gu can give me enough respect… things wouldn’t have to be this way between us.”
“So, in your heart, your uncle will always be more important than me?”
“Gu Yuanzhou, you’ve wrestled this company away by any means necessary, no matter how you explain it, it’s meaningless, you can’t cover up the truth.”
“Do you think your uncle didn’t snatch this company? The things he did back then, the means he used were a hundred times more vicious than anything I’ve done. You understand nothing and yet you spout nonsense here,”
Gu Yuanzhou said angrily.
I just looked at him indifferently.
My face was expressionless.
After he finished speaking, he gripped my arm tighter, shaking my body. “What sort of expression is that?”
“I don’t believe you, Gu Yuanzhou! I don’t believe a single word you say!”
“Song Yun, I warn you. If you came here tonight just to provoke me, to argue with me, I can tell you, you’ll gain nothing.”
As his anger rose, the atmosphere between us tensed again.
In the lobby, it was just the two of us, poised for confrontation. I was so angry that I couldn’t help but touch the knife in my bag.
There was even a moment when I looked around the room to check for cameras, pondering whether I could stab him in the heart…
For an instant, my mind went blank.
Not until I saw a camera above the reception desk did I abandon the thought, silently withdrawing my hand.
“Gu Yuanzhou! I’m getting a bit hungry, let’s go eat!”
He looked at me deeply, took my hand, and started walking outside.
Because of my guilt, I held my backpack tightly, fearing he would discover the knife hidden inside.
Yet, the more you fear something, the more likely it is to happen.
While stepping down the stairs, in my panic, I missed a step and tumbled down.
My bag fell out of my hand…
I didn’t wait for Gu Yuanzhou to turn back and help me up; I quickly scrambled up from the ground and rushed to pick up my bag.
But Gu Yuanzhou was a step faster, snatching the bag from in front of me.
“Give me my bag back!”
I didn’t even bother to brush off the dust from myself, demanding my bag directly from him.
Gu Yuanzhou gave me a puzzled look; he seemed to have realized there was something wrong with the bag.
