Reborn In The Apocalypse: It Had Always Been You Novel - Chapter 92

Chapter 92 Jealousy

“Come in.” A deep voice sounded from inside the room.

Gu Jincheng saw Gu Zhao enter with a cold gaze and deliberately asked, “Have you found out about the woman I asked you to investigate last time?”

Gu Zhao paused and lowered his head. “I have.”

Gu Jincheng was waiting for him to continue, but after a while, he still did not say anything.

As if he did not notice the tension in the air, Gu Zhao took out the extraterrestrial meteorite and placed it on the table. “Someone wanted me to hand this to you.”

He did not say her name according to Su Shanshan’s request, but he did not lie to Gu Jincheng either.

Gu Jincheng picked up the strange-looking rock on the table, took a look at it, and casually threw it aside. He said nonchalantly, “Gu Zhao, your heart seems to have softened. Don’t bring such nonsense to me in the future.”

Gu Zhao suddenly clenched his fists. For the first time, he felt a hint of anger toward his master. He looked up and said, “This is someone’s sincere feelings for you. How can you treat her so casually?”.

Gu Jincheng leaned forward slightly and asked, “Then tell me, how should I treat this thing and how should I treat that woman?”

Gu Zhao’s body stiffened. So he had guessed it.

Gu Jincheng leaned back in his chair in boredom and said, “You don’t have to report that woman’s affairs to me anymore in the future. You can leave.”

Gu Zhao walked out stiffly and realized that he had not told Gu Jincheng about the zombie birds. He returned to knock on the door again and heard an angry roar, “Get lost!”

Gu Zhao put down his hand and left.

In the study room, Gu Jincheng was far from calm even though he had appeared to be so just now. An inexplicable sense of anger made him want to kill someone. He took the extraterrestrial meteorite on the table and wanted to throw it out, but in the end, he lowered his hand.

Damn it! He held the extraterrestrial meteorite tightly as his mind was filled with that woman. That woman, who he had only met twice, had caused such strong emotional fluctuations in him. These uncontrollable feelings made him very unhappy and helpless.

In his anger, he felt something strange coming from his palm. All his special powers were activated. He looked down at the extraterrestrial meteorite in his hand and instantly understood its function.

He closed his eyes. When he opened them again, he jumped out of the window and left the villa.

At the villa of the Leaping Mercenary Group in the eastern district.

He clearly did not want to care, but Gu Jincheng knew her residence and even her room.

Only then did Gu Jincheng, who was already standing in Su Shanshan’s room, realize that he seemed to know too much about this woman.

He turned around and saw the woman lying on the bed. She was sleeping with a pillow in her arms, looking surprisingly docile. After all, this woman was not docile when they met twice.

He hid in the dark and did not move. He was in a daze as he watched the woman sleep. If someone had told him that he was wasting his time on such things, he would have scoffed at it. He actually found it quite interesting.

The woman on the bed moved slightly and wrapped the blanket tighter around her.

Gu Jincheng gazed at the window that he had opened when he came in. The night’s cold wind blew in through the window. He frowned and felt that it was really troublesome, but he went forward to close the window.

Unexpectedly, the sound of the window closing woke the sleeping woman up. Gu Jincheng disappeared in a flash. Su Shanshan rubbed her eyes and sat up. She looked at the window. There appeared to be no change to the closed window. She touched her hair and yawned.

Earlier, she felt an aura coming in, but that aura was too familiar and gave her a sense of security, which was why she did not wake up. But now that she thought about it, she felt even more puzzled. What kind of aura made her feel safe? The first person that came to mind was Gu Jincheng, but the next second, she felt that it was impossible. She took it as a dream and lay down again to continue sleeping.
