She couldn't react for a while after hearing what Bo Yunhan had said.
The man was so close to her, and she subconsciously thought that the man would pull out a gun in the next moment.
This person's danger had been displayed incisively and vividly from the beginning.
Jiang Yansheng smelled a cold fragrance, and her stomach, which hadn't eaten much, suddenly twisted.
It hurt as if she had drunk three pounds of beer.
She forced a smile to hide her nervousness and put some distance between herself and Bo Yunhan.
"Sorry, I'm quite picky." She shook her head. "If Mr. Bo asked me to come here because of Gu Yan, I think your plan might be in vain."
Bo Yunhan frowned. Although he didn't say anything, and there was a faint smile on his lips, Jiang Yansheng's sensitive intuition told her that the man seemed to be on the verge of breaking down.
A strong wind blew past her ears, and her chin was firmly held by the man.
"Gu Yan brought you here, but he didn't help you out when you embarrassed yourself, so are you disappointed?"
Bo Yunhan's words seemed to have revealed a layer of cloth in her heart.
Jiang Yansheng sneered. "Mr. Bo, did I not make myself clear, or are you deaf and can't hear what I'm saying? Even if Gu Yan doesn't come, he can just skip this dinner. What's there to be disappointed about? "
She used some strength to grab the man's wrist, wanting him to let go, but in exchange, her chin was getting more and more painful.
There was a flash of admiration in Bao Yunhan's eyes. "Your temper is quite interesting."
The 'interesting' Jiang Yansheng felt as though her jaw was about to break. She stepped on Bao Yunhan's leather shoes harshly before the man let go.
She took a deep breath and rubbed her red and hot skin. She smiled faintly and said, "Although I don't know why Mr. Bo is so sure about my relationship with Gu Ran, why don't you check it out and see if I met Gu Ran a month ago? He didn't even show up at the wedding ceremony."
"Even if he's rich and powerful, it doesn't mean that all women have to fall in love with him, right?"
He didn't know which of Jiang Yansheng's words had provoked him, but the man suddenly sneered a little irritable and gloomy. "Rich and powerful?"
"The only heir of the Gu clan?"
"Gu Yan's father, Gu Xingqiu, returned to Jiang City yesterday, but he was pitiful and only found out tonight."
"Found out what?" Jiang Yansheng opened his dry eyes and raised his head. A cold breeze blew in from the balcony of the second floor, and suddenly, a clear gunshot rang out.
The shot was fired without hesitation.
It should have been far away from her, but it exploded in her ears.
Jiang Yansheng was shocked by the gunshot. Her hand that was hanging in the air was a little stiff as she slowly turned her head, "What's that sound?"
"Did someone bring a gun to your banquet?"
After the gunshot, everything was still as still as dead water. There wasn't even a scream. It was so calm that it was as if Jiang Yansheng had heard wrongly. She looked at the man standing in front of her and smiled coldly.
He didn't seem to notice her question at all and continued talking to himself.
"This identity is just something he adopted. One day, everything in his hands will turn to dust. When that time comes, will you still stay with a stray dog? "
Jiang Yansheng frowned. She felt that the man's brain wasn't working well. He kept talking about things that couldn't exist. She would rather believe that Jiang City would collapse tomorrow than believe that Gu Yan would go bankrupt.
The pain in her stomach was getting worse.
She clenched her fists by her side.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Bo. Whether Gu Yan is a dog or not, I won't stay with him. If you're angry, don't come at me. If you want Gu Yiyi's contact information, I'll definitely give it to you when we're free."
Jiang Yansheng didn't want to stay with this man for even a second. She always felt that the thin air around her had been robbed clean by this man's strong aura.
Bo Yunhan wasn't angry at her cold words. He leaned against the cold railing and said, "Since you're so eager to cut ties with Gu Yan and even spared no effort to drag another woman into it, why don't we do an experiment to see who is more important in Gu Yan's heart, you or that woman? Anyway, they both belong to him. There should be a winner. "
Jiang Yansheng felt bad. She looked at the brightly lit staircase and didn't see any of Bo Yunhan's men.
But since the banquet tonight was arranged by Bo Yunhan, it was hard to guarantee that Bo Yunhan's men were hiding everywhere.
Could it be that Bo Yunhan had hated Gu Yan for a long time and wanted to get rid of all the people important to Gu Yan, so he started with her first?
But she had never heard of this man becoming enemies with Gu Yan before!
She felt annoyed for no reason. She pulled the fox fur coat on her chest a little higher to get some warmth and said unhurriedly, "The experiment is boring. I don't belong to Gu Yan or any man. I only belong to myself."
"Thank you, Mr. Bo, for saving me tonight, but it's too cold on the second floor. I'll go down first." Jiang Yansheng carefully guessed Bo Yunhan's attitude. She even stepped back cautiously and elegantly.
Even when she was three or four meters away from Bo Yunhan, the man didn't seem to be angry. She directly lifted the hem of her dress and ran away.
What a joke. This man was unpredictable. He was Gu Yan's enemy and insisted that she had a close relationship with Gu Yan. If she didn't run now, when would she run away?
There was no one on the second floor. The crisp sound left by her high heels could turn three corridors. Jiang Yansheng stood at the corner of the spiral staircase and finally looked back at the back of the man who was still on the balcony.
He was still leaning against the railing, probably looking at the fountain below.
She couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry, but he was inexplicably lonely.
…
As soon as Jiang Yansheng appeared in the banquet hall, she was like a moving focus. Everyone looked at her calmly, and she was sweating profusely just looking for someone.
An Yajing, who had quarreled with her before, had already disappeared.
She was very unfamiliar with the rest of the people present. Before she met Mu Lianchen, she often went to these banquets with Jiang Chu, but in recent years, she rarely went there, let alone met some people from the upper class.
She walked out of the door of the banquet hall. There were two rows of security guards standing outside, and many guests were coming in one after another. The person in charge of reception was a little surprised to see her. "Miss, is there anything wrong with the service …"
Jiang Yansheng's footsteps were weak. Just when she didn't know how to answer, her phone suddenly rang. She made a pause gesture to the person in charge and answered the call.
The call was from Gu Yan, who had just disappeared for a whole hour.
She didn't speak after she picked up the call. Listening to Gu Yan's heavy breathing on the other end of the phone, the anger that should have rushed to her heart disappeared without a trace.
"Where are you?" The man's voice came from the heavy breathing, but he didn't lose his calm.
"I'm at the entrance of the banquet hall." She walked out a little bit, and the signal was much better. "Didn't you say that you were going to get me a drink? Why didn't you come back? "
She pressed one hand to her stomach and looked up at the small balcony on the second floor where she and Bo Yunhan were standing.
There was no one there now, leaving only the beige curtains fluttering.
Gu Yan smiled helplessly. "I'm sorry."
Jiang Yansheng pursed her lips. "I don't need to be sorry."
"I might not be able to come and pick you up. Although this place is a little remote, there will be a designated driver waiting at the door. If you really can't come, you can take a taxi …" Gu Yan said as he took a deep breath.
Behind her was a huge banquet hall full of singing and dancing, and in front of her was the dark night. It was indescribably cold.
She clenched her phone tightly. "Where are you?"
The phone didn't hang up, but Gu Yan didn't say anything. Jiang Yansheng said calmly, "Gu Yan, I'll wait for three seconds. Tell me where you are."
"I came here dressed so beautifully today, and I promised to stay by your side. Now you want me to take a taxi back alone? Don't you think it's funny? "
She felt like her stomach was cramping up.
The more painful her body was, the clearer her mind was. She said, "Gu Yan, is it fun to play with me?"
Gu Yan, who was lying on his stomach in the dark, had a slight change in his expression. He opened his mouth several times and said in a hoarse voice, "The third row of the parking lot, the fourth row. I didn't turn on the lights. Come and look for it."
The cold wind blew, and Jiang Yansheng shivered. After hanging up the phone, she pushed away the caring arm of the person in charge.
She strode into the darkness.
She found the location Gu Yan had mentioned. She turned on the flashlight on her phone and shone it on the car plate. After confirming that it was the car, she casually held up the phone and shone it into the driver's seat.
She thought she would see a man's angry face.
To her surprise, there was no one in the driver's seat.
She pulled the door, but it was locked. She couldn't open it.
Jiang Yansheng raised her eyebrows. Even in the dark, she was beautiful in her snow-white dress. Even the way she kicked the door was very fresh and refined.
The Bentley didn't move and made a muffled sound.
The car lights suddenly turned on, and the window of the driver's seat slowly rolled down. Jiang Yansheng crossed her arms and looked inside coldly. The man didn't move in the passenger seat.
"What? Young Master Gu's car is installed with a security door. Why didn't you open the door without knocking? "
No one responded to her. Jiang Yansheng frowned and opened the door. "What are you doing? You drank too much and want me to drive? "
It was very dark in the car. Jiang Yansheng wanted to touch the ceiling light, but the man reached out to stop her.
His hand was very cold, and he couldn't control his trembling.
Jiang Yansheng was puzzled. She grabbed Gu Yan's arm and pulled it slightly. The man suddenly groaned.
She sniffed.
Smelling something pungent in the air, he suddenly stopped his hand.
