Mr. Gu, stop being abusive, Miss Xu is marrying your brother.

hotel room.

Gu Chenyan sat at the desk and glanced at Xu Yan who was hiding in the corridor and did not dare to come over.

"Drink the medicine." Gu Chenyan pushed the cup of water with the medicine forward.

Xu Yan hid nervously behind the partition. When she heard Gu Chenyan speaking, she walked over with her head lowered.

"Are you resting in the hotel, or do you want to go out for a walk?" Sanya has a nice sea view, Gu Chenyan remembered Xu Yan saying.

Xu Yan held the water glass and her eyes lit up.

She is not good at expressing herself, but her eyes never deceive.

Whether you like it or not, you can always tell it clearly by looking at it.

So when Gu Chenyan met Xu Yan at the Gu family for the first time, he felt that there was clear stupidity in her eyes.

"Has the fever gone?" Gu Chenyan stood up and touched Xu Yan's forehead.

Xu Yan's body stiffened for a moment, but she actually... didn't move away.

"It's still a bit hot. Let's take some medicine and take a rest to go see the night view along the coast." Gu Chenyan leaned on the table and watched Xu Yan drink the medicine.

Xu Yan was a little nervous and swallowed all the medicine in one breath.

"Here." Gu Chenyan reached for the bottled mineral water on the table, took the initiative to unscrew the bottle cap for her, and handed it over.

Xu Yan's eyes turned red, and she reached out to take the mineral water and was about to drink it.

"Wait." Gu Chenyan frowned and reached out to take back the bottle of mineral water.

Gu Chenyan has a mysophobia, so he has strict requirements on all hotel utensils.

When he tightened the bottle cap just now, he clearly used no force, which meant that the bottle of mineral water had been opened.

After looking at the water bottle carefully, Gu Chenyan sniffed the mineral water and his face darkened. "There's something wrong with the water."

Xu Yan looked at Gu Chenyan in shock. "Is there something wrong with the water? Is it... unclean?"

Xu Yan only thought that Gu Chenyan's mysophobia was too serious. "I'll get a new bottle."

"Smell it." Gu Chenyan handed the water bottle to Xu Yan's nose.

Xu Yan sniffed it and was shocked. "There's something really wrong, it smells sour."

Normal mineral water is unlikely to have a sour taste even if it has expired.

This shows that it is not water.

Gu Chenyan frowned, made a gesture to silence Xu Yan, took two packets of white sugar from the side of the coffee machine, and took her to the bathroom.

Xu Yan looked curious.

He looked at Gu Chenyan inquiringly, not knowing what he was going to do.

Gu Chenyan tore apart the sugar, placed it in the ashtray, and then poured bottled water into it.

Soon, the white sugar oxidizes and turns black, and gas is produced.

"Slightly diluted sulfuric acid." Gu Chenyan said in a low voice while holding the bottle of water.

Xu Yan took a breath and raised her hand to cover her mouth. "sulfuric acid?"

What will be the consequences if you drink this?

It can range from damage to the esophageal vocal cords to life-threatening in severe cases?

Gu Chenyan's face was serious, he tightened the bottle cap, walked out of the bathroom, and called Chen Yu.

Not long after, Chen Yu came to the room and installed simple cameras in the bathroom and outside.

"Act a bit like her." Chen Yu glanced at Xu Yan.

Xu Yan nodded blankly, knowing that Gu Chenyan wanted to catch the murderer.

There is sulfuric acid in the bottle. There are only a limited number of staff who have been in and out of this room, but there is definitely more than one. It is not good to accuse anyone unjustly.

Once something happens to Xu Yan, everyone will be in a hurry, and they will definitely not think of taking away the mineral water bottle to call the police.

The murderer will definitely return to the scene of the crime and sell the stolen goods.

As long as this bottle of water is flushed down the toilet, there will be no evidence.

"Don't be afraid." Gu Chenyan said soothingly.

Xu Yan's face was pale. She was not sure whether the person behind her was coming for her or Gu Chenyan.

"This room is in Xu Yan's name. Is it for Xu Yan?" Chen Yu whispered.

Gu Chenyan nodded.

If he hadn't taken the initiative to help Xu Yan twist the bottle cap today, the consequences would have been disastrous.

The tips of his fingers were a little cold, and Gu Chenyan felt scared for the first time.

"Someone is coming!"

"Something happened! Ambulance, call an ambulance!"

Outside the door, Chen Yu shouted yes in panic, his hands full of blood.

Xu Yan also had blood on her face and at the corners of her mouth. She pretended to be dizzy and was carried out of the room by Gu Chenyan and ran into the elevator in a panic.

"Mr. Gu, what's going on?" the staff asked in panic.

Gu Chenyan lowered his voice and said nothing.

Seeing Chen Yu and the others leaving, the cleaning staff hiding in the corridor sneaked out, entered the room with the door open, and rummaged around for the open bottle of mineral water.

Then he quickly poured it into the toilet.

"Ha... It's really hard to guard against house thieves day and night." Outside the door, Chen Yu walked in with the hotel manager, his voice was low and sarcastic.

The cleaning lady turned pale with fright and almost fell to the ground.

"According to... the manager..."

"Tell me, who told you to do this! You are really brave and want to harm Mr. Gu!" The manager was so angry that his voice trembled.

This is a criminal offence.

"Manager, the manager is not...I don't have it. I didn't do anything. I just saw the door was open and came in to clean." The cleaning lady was still quibbling.

"Really?" Chen Yu sneered, pointing to the camera prepared in advance and the replaced sulfuric acid. "Everyone gets the stolen goods, so go ahead and argue with the police."

……

Underground Parking Lot.

Xu Yan got into the car, still a little uneasy.

"Are you scared?" Gu Chenyan stretched out his hand and pulled Xu Yan to his side. "If you keep hiding, get out."

Xu Yanhou looked up at Gu Chenyan fearfully, with a psychological shadow.

From now on, she must 'test the poison' in advance before anything Gu Chenyan puts into his mouth.

"Let's go back to Haicheng and let Chen Yu stay and deal with the aftermath." Gu Chenyan looked very unhappy. He couldn't let Xu Yan stay and take risks anymore.

She had just offended Qu Meihong today, and then she was plotted against. This was Qu Meihong's warning to Xu Yan.

With a cold snort, Gu Chenyan moved his fingers.

Qu Meihong, she has lived too comfortably in the Gu family these years.

Xu Yan nodded stiffly.

I was originally looking forward to going to see the night view of the seaside with Gu Chenyan.

Lowering her eyes and looking out the car window, Xu Yan stared at the passing vehicles eagerly.

Sometimes she wonders whether everyone in this world is free except her.

And she seemed to be trapped in a cage forever.

"Take the outer ring road and go to the beach." Gu Chenyan explained.

The driver nodded and drove to the outer ring road.

……

"Yanyan, what are your plans after you are released from prison?"

During those years in prison, the only one who could talk to Xu Yan was Zhang Hui.

"Stay with my son..." Xu Yan's voice was hoarse.

She just wants to grow up with Xia Xia.

"Have you ever thought about finding someone to marry? It will be very tiring for you to be a woman with a child."

"Wouldn't it be tiring to get married? No one would love me for a woman like me..."

Xu Yan knew very clearly that no one would love her again for a person like her who was full of stains and criticized by others.

Marriage, the future.

She had given up hope long ago.

The car stopped on the side of the road at some point. Gu Chenyan got out of the car and opened Xu Yan's door.

Xu Yan was lying on the car door in a daze, but when Gu Chenyan suddenly opened the door, she lost her center of gravity and fell out.

Gu Chenyan subconsciously stepped forward and let Xu Yan bump into his lap.

"..."

Gu Chenyan is 188cm tall, with perfect body proportions, and his legs are too long, so the position Xu Yan fell in... is hard to describe and extremely ambiguous.

With a slight cough, Gu Chenyan looked away. "The tide is coming in. I'll take you to the beach for a walk."

Xu Yan stood up straight and followed Gu Chenyan hand and foot, in great panic.

Looking up at Gu Chenyan, Xu Yan found that... his ears were actually red, and they were very red.
