Buzz —
Gu Shishi's phone vibrated.
Buzz buzz —
The two consecutive vibrations woke Gu Shishi up from her dark dream.
She opened her eyes in a daze. Her surroundings were pitch-black, and only a faint ray of light shone in through the gap in front of her.
Gu Shishi stretched her tired neck and moved her legs slightly.
Did she accidentally read again and fall asleep while sitting on the bed?
She reached for the phone beside her leg and squinted at the screen.
However, when the dazzling light of the phone shone on her, her expression turned ugly.
She was still alive?!
She had clearly died in a serial car accident.
When she thought of the bloody scene and the memory of the excruciating pain all over her body, her face turned pale and she broke out in a cold sweat!
As she frowned and recalled, the phone vibrated again.
[Young Master Cheng is coming up!]
Gu Shishi was stunned.
Who was this?
What was he talking about?
Before Gu Shishi could react, she felt a gust of cold wind. She looked down instinctively and saw that she was only wearing a thin tank top under the dim light of the phone screen.
In her agitation, she moved too much and her arm hit the wooden board in front of her!
The soft bang made her even more confused.
"What … is this? A wardrobe?! "
Gu Shishi felt around and realized that something was wrong.
She was sitting in a narrow wooden wardrobe. There were rows of men's suits hanging on both sides of the wardrobe.
So, she was hiding in a closed-off man's wardrobe?
Just as she was about to open the wardrobe door, a man's voice suddenly came from outside the room.
Gu Shishi froze.
The next moment, there was a creaking sound, as if the door outside had been opened.
The man's voice, as gentle as jade, could be heard clearly.
"Yes, Shuangshuang. I have something to discuss with my brother. I'll be downstairs in a while."
Gu Shishi's muddled brain finally cleared up because of this sentence.
Young Master Cheng … Brother … Shuangshuang … Wardrobe …
With a boom, all kinds of complicated memories rushed into her mind.
Was this the melodramatic novel that she had read in the taxi?
The cannon fodder female supporting character, Gu Shishi, was the daughter of the Gu family. When she was born, she was swapped with the fake daughter, Gu Wushuang, by a commoner family.
The Gu family and the Huo family were connected by marriage. A few days after she was found by the Gu family, because the Gu family couldn't bear to see the fake daughter suffer, they married her to the villain of the Huo family, Huo Sishen, who was a jinx to his wife.
After the engagement, she was sent to Huo Sishen's villa.
However, she had always been in love with the male lead of this book, the second young master of the Huo family, Huo Wencheng.
Gu Shishi covered her face with her hands.
No Way? Did she transmigrate as a female supporting character with the same name?
"Brother, you called me here to discuss the Gu family's matters. Where are you?"
Huo Wencheng's gentle voice could be heard through the cupboard door.
Gu Shishi opened her mouth.
According to the plot, the female supporting character, Gu Shishi, wanted to become Huo Wencheng's woman. Therefore, she bribed the servant and took advantage of the time when Huo Wencheng visited her brother, Huo Sishen, to lure him to the room under the name of Huo Sishen. Meanwhile, she hid in the wardrobe and took the opportunity to throw herself at him.
How did she transmigrate into such a melodramatic plot?
What should she do?
Of course, she couldn't go out now, but …
Gu Shishi touched the cooling straps on her body and was a little confused. Should she go out after Huo Wencheng left?
"Brother? Are you in the bathroom? "
The sound of the shower curtain being pulled open came from outside.
The sound of Huo Wencheng's footsteps quickly echoed around the room.
Obviously, he was deliberately looking for traces of her!
Gu Shishi narrowed her eyes and thought about the plot of the novel.
The cannon fodder, Gu Shishi, was betrayed by the servant and Huo Wencheng found out about her plan.
However, he looked down on her and was very ruthless. He asked the servant to wait outside and once she jumped out, he would go to the study and ask Huo Sishen to come over.
Therefore, she confessed on the spot but was caught by her fiancé. The servant pretended to come in to serve tea and saw this scene. Overnight, her bad reputation spread throughout the upper-class circle.
At the beginning of the novel, the cannon fodder female supporting character was broken off her engagement and chased out of the Gu family. Despised by thousands of people, she committed suicide in despair.
So … she became cannon fodder who would not live for more than three days?!
"Brother? Aren't you in the room? "
Huo Wencheng's voice was getting closer and closer. His slow but powerful footsteps seemed to be approaching the wardrobe.
"Miss Gu?"
Huo Wencheng lowered his voice and suddenly called her name.
Gu Shishi's scalp went numb.
She immediately held her breath and did not dare to move. She was afraid that he would notice her hiding in the wardrobe if she made any noise.
As long as he opened the wardrobe door, she would have to face this sanctimonious man!
How could she explain why she was hiding here?!
Tap — tap —
In less than three breaths, Huo Wencheng's footsteps stopped in front of the largest wardrobe in the room.
There was only a gap between the wardrobe door and Gu Shishi could even hear his steady breathing.
The two of them were very close to each other!
Gu Shishi's heart almost stopped.
She looked up.
Through the extremely narrow gap between the wardrobe door, a ray of faint light that seemed to be projected from the window flickered for a moment. Soon, a shadow covered the room.
Huo Wencheng put his hand on the handle of the wardrobe door.
With a creak, the wardrobe door was pulled open by a small angle.
The ray of light in front of Gu Shishi's eyes suddenly enlarged by two times.
She was done for!
She clutched her chest tightly and closed her eyes in resignation with a pale face. However, a cold and impatient voice suddenly sounded.
"What are you doing in my room?"
Unlike Huo Wencheng's gentle voice, this hoarse voice made one's scalp go numb. It made one feel a trace of danger that could not be underestimated.
Gu Shishi's hair stood on end. Was she too nervous to hear the footsteps just now?
This man was Huo Sishen, the fiancé of the original owner of this body?
She didn't jump out of the wardrobe. Theoretically, the maid shouldn't have reported it. However, did things continue to develop according to fate?
She took a deep breath.
Just thinking about the tragic ending of the original owner of this body made her feel cold all over. Blood rushed to her brain.
"Brother …"
Huo Wencheng's hand suddenly retracted from the wardrobe door as if it had been electrocuted.
Gu Shishi's heart also jumped to her throat.
She was afraid that he would give her away.
"Brother, I heard that you were looking for me."
Huo Wencheng quickly explained.
"I don't exist."
The man's voice was cold and impatient.
"Get out."
"Brother, I …"
"Get out. Ask someone to come in and disinfect the wardrobe."
Huo Wencheng's words were stuck in his throat.
Gu Shishi tried her best to listen. Finally, she heard the footsteps that were getting farther and farther away.
Huo Wencheng should have left.
She let out a long sigh.
Her fiancé, who was suspected to be a jinx to his wife, was a serious germaphobe. At this time, he was quite helpful.
The person responsible for disinfecting the wardrobe wouldn't open it, right?
She should be safe.
However, just as Gu Shishi was about to relax, her left eyelid twitched crazily.
She immediately squatted down like a quail and didn't dare to move.
Sure enough, after waiting for half a minute, there was movement in the room again. A faint smell of sandalwood cologne came closer and entered the tip of her nose.
Gu Shishi's long legs were already blocked, but she didn't dare to move at all.
Her fiancé seemed to have stopped in front of the wardrobe. It seemed like he was observing the wardrobe.
He hadn't left yet?
In her nervousness, Gu Shishi grabbed the sleeves of the suit hanging on both sides of the wardrobe and squeezed them tightly in her palms.
She held her breath and quietly listened to the movements outside the wardrobe.
Her fiancé seemed to be flipping through a book outside. The sound of paper flipping was very clear.
It seemed that he wouldn't be leaving for a while.
Gu Shishi bit her lip. She could only continue to squat in the wardrobe and try to recall this character.
In the novel, Huo Sishen was suspected to have jinxed his father and grandfather to death.
He was isolated by his biological mother as a virus since he was young. He was extremely cold and arrogant, but his personal wealth had long surpassed the entire Huo Group.
In the novel, he only promoted the relationship between the male and female protagonists. He didn't have much of a role in the novel. Not long after, he died young.
Gu Shishi hugged her knees.
She was supposed to be a dead person …
As Gu Shishi thought about it, she quietly took a man's jacket from the wardrobe under the cover of the sound of book flipping. She put it on her slightly cold shoulders.
What should she do after this?
Gu Shishi bit her lip and secretly clenched her fists.
Live!
Since she had survived once, no matter what this time, she had to try her best to survive!
The feeling of death was too painful. Just the thought of it made her shiver uncontrollably.
She didn't want to go through it again so casually!
Gu Shishi secretly made up her mind in the wardrobe.
However, the lack of air circulation, the hunger in her stomach, and even the tense nerves soon made her completely dizzy …
As the sun gradually set, the entire room quickly became dark.
"Young Master, we'll take our leave first."
"Okay."
His low and hoarse voice was brief but powerful.
Huo Sishen waved his hand and dismissed the butler and maids who were following him from a distance.
His cold black eyes swept across the guest room at the end of the corridor. A trace of impatience and disgust flashed across his eyes.
Did these people really think that he would have so much patience to give him another fiancé?
"Throw that woman out tomorrow!"
Huo Sishen stopped in his tracks and turned to enter the room after he finished speaking.
"Yes."
The butler and maids didn't dare to disobey. They could only bow and lower their heads.
After taking a cold shower and wrapping a towel around himself, Huo Sishen walked to the wardrobe and opened the door.
In the end, he had only pulled it open halfway when a big ball with a slight sweet smell of fruit rolled out with a crash and crashed straight into his arms!
Huo Sishen instinctively blocked and pushed his hand outward. However, his hand touched the girl who was as soft as snow. His face darkened and he froze in his actions!
He lowered his head and saw that her long black hair reached her waist. Her small face was as delicate as a painting. She was wrapped in his custom-made suit jacket.
His jacket was obviously much bigger than her slender frame. When it wrapped around her body, it made her look especially petite and fair.
Gu Shishi's red lips were slightly parted. She was dreaming of the happy days of lying down and counting money. She thought that she was sleeping with the big yellow dog in her arms. She happily patted the furry dog's head and salivated happily.
Huo Sishen was about to fly into a rage. His cold black eyes were about to surge with violent undercurrents. However, he was suddenly hit by her small hand and his dark eyes froze!
Gu Shishi was suddenly awakened from her stupor. Her watery eyes were startled when she saw the handsome face of the cold man in front of her.
At the same time, an electronic voice sounded in her ears.
[Orange Alert!]
[Remaining life: 9 minutes 01 seconds!]
Gu Shishi: "!?"
