Chapter 161: Chapter 161 Eyes Reveal Obvious Vulnerability (1) Chapter 161: Chapter 161 Eyes Reveal Obvious Vulnerability (1) People like Director Gu and Director Shao are not to be trifled with, offending one is bad enough, let alone both at the same time—and precisely in their forbidden zones.
Who knows which deities these people have managed to offend in their past lives.
Gu Annan carried Lu Wanwan into the car, his fists clenched tightly.
Looking down at the shocking slap mark on her face, the fierceness in his eyes deepened.
The lines of his thin lips were razor-sharp, his chest heaving violently, suppressed, a terrible sense of oppression as if it compressed and shattered the air inside the car.
Lu Wanwan curled up in his arms, silent, without crying or making a fuss.
Her tense body was clinging to him tightly, like a drowning person grasping onto the last life-saving straw, unwilling to let go.
“Get some sleep,” he said, his voice low, suppressing his anger.
Lu Wanwan’s eyes were open, her dark pupils staring fixedly in one direction.
Hearing his words, she closed her eyes, but it was clear she was still tense, far from asleep.
He unclenched his fist, stretching out a hand to gently support her head, allowing it to rest against his chest.
Only then did he slowly feel her start to relax, drop her guard, and entrust all her safety into his hands.
Before long, the car entered the Gu Mansion.
Auntie Li, having received the news earlier, was already waiting at the door.
Still, upon seeing the person in Gu Annan’s arms, she was shocked for a moment.
This was the first time she had ever seen Miss Lu so disoriented.
“The doctor is already waiting, it’s a female doctor recommended by Dr. Zhou as per the young master’s instructions,” Auntie Li said, following his quick pace.
Gu Annan ascended the stairs quickly, “Have her come up.”
He placed Lu Wanwan on the bed and was about to let go when the delicate white wrists around his neck did not loosen but instead clung even tighter.
She was still afraid and didn’t want him to leave.
“Let go, let’s check the injuries first,” Gu Annan said softly, knowing she feared pain, deciding to wait until after the doctor had examined her.
As he spoke, he swiftly removed the arms from around him and stepped aside.
Lu Wanwan gave him a glance, her gaze revealing obvious fragility.
Yet, upon seeing the determination in his eyes, she did not protest.
Gu Annan felt as though something in his heart was being torn apart, he immediately turned to the doctor, “Check her injuries.”
The doctor was a woman in her thirties, with very high professional standards.
She immediately knew what had happened but refrained from asking any unnecessary questions and went straight to the examination.
Gu Annan stood by, his eyebrows tightly furrowed, and his eyes still swirling with intense murderous intent.
Fortunately, he was at Caesar today.
That afternoon, when Shao Zhiheng said Lu Wanwan would surely be asked out by Xu Yuan, indeed, he received her text saying that Xu Yuan’s wallet had been snatched, she was in a very depressed mood and needed her company, and that she would return home late.
Considering he would return to an empty villa anyway, he decided to join Shao Zhiheng at Caesar.
Luckily, he received a call from Lu Wanwan on his way, hearing her heart-wrenching cries from the other end, only then realizing she was in trouble.
It was fortunate that she had shouted out at the beginning, causing a scene at Caesar, allowing him to narrow down the search area quickly, avoiding further delays.
“Mr. Gu, fortunately, there are no major issues,” the doctor said after the examination, “There are some injuries caused by tearing, but she hasn’t been violated. However, her mental state is not good. Does she need a sedative shot?”
As Lu Wanwan heard the sentence about not being violated, her facial expression tightened slightly.
