Chapter 47
Gu Anhao punched and kicked the air as she tried to get out of his grasp.
It was not surprising that Gu Anhao was in so much pain, considering how swollen and red her cheek was.
“It really hurts…” Gu Anhao cried out as she continued struggling. The pain that she was feeling made her feel as though she was about to cry. Her whole body was pressed down on the sofa and she stared at Zuo Hancheng with a distressed expression on her face. “Zuo Hancheng, I am going to charge you for attempted murder!”
“It seemed as though taking a bath really helped. At least, you are sober enough to recognize who I am now,” Zuo Hancheng sneered in a lukewarm manner.
What nonsense! Even a dead person could be brought back to life if anyone were to place such a cold ice pack against his face! Moreover, her face was seriously hurting. Even if she was very drunk, she would definitely be wide awake at this moment.
Gu Anhao knew that it was absolutely worthless to struggle in front of this strong man. She was also feeling very uncomfortable and she had a massive headache because of the alcohol. Therefore, Gu Anhao could only rest her head against the side of the sofa, but she could not avoid the ice pack at all. All that she could do was to bite onto her lips as she tried to endure the pain.
Zuo Hancheng frowned when he saw her biting her lips.
Gu Anhao obviously did not know how tempting and seductive she looked right now as she was half-naked and only scantily clad in a white bathrobe. Furthermore, Zuo Hancheng was really captivated by Gu Anhao’s unexpected confidence and courage.
Zuo Hancheng wanted to ask Gu Anhao to stop biting her lips but he suddenly realized that she was biting her lower lip to the point where it had turned white.
Gu Anhao was really in pain. She was only biting her lips because she was desperately trying to endure the pain. When Zuo Hancheng suddenly tightened his arms around her waist, Gu Anhao opened her eyes but she suddenly felt his warm lips and tongue brushing against her lips in an aggressive manner.
The strong stench of alcohol in her mouth welcomed the clean and fresh breath of his, and Gu Anhao was feeling very confused at the moment.
Gu Anhao was at a loss because she did not know why Zuo Hancheng was acting this way. She was in pain but what did she do wrong? Was she not allowed to cry out if she was in pain?
The look of confusion and grievance in her eyes made Zuo Hancheng feel as though he was doing something seriously wrong. He felt as though he was taking advantage of an innocent young girl.
But how could Gu Anhao be considered an innocent girl?
She drank so much to the point where she got wasted! She did everything that made him dislike her and she even had the audacity to ask him why there were no cigarettes here! The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he ought to teach her a lesson. Therefore, he pulled her closer to him as he held her tightly against his body.
He continued kissing her and he could feel Gu Anhao moving slightly as though she had been placed in an unbearable position.
Zuo Hancheng muttered under his breath before he dropped the ice pack that he was holding against her face. He was already prepared to bring her back to her bedroom so that he could teach her a lesson and straighten her out immediately.
Just as he was about to carry her up in his arms, Gu Anhao’s cell phone that was on the coffee table started ringing all of a sudden.
Zuo Hancheng glanced at the cell phone before he subconsciously sat Gu Anhao down on the sofa. At this time, Gu Anhao opened her eyes as she stared at him with drunk and dull eyes.
Zuo Hancheng did not say anything, he simply walked toward the coffee table as he picked up the cell phone that was ringing continuously.
He stared at the cell phone but it was a phone call from an unknown number that had not been saved. The cell phone continued ringing again and again, and this proved that the other party was indeed very persistent.
Gu Anhao was lying on the sofa behind him and she pulled her bathrobe tightly together as she was feeling a little cold. She turned around to look at Zuo Hancheng before asking in a muffled tone, “Who’s calling?”
“It’s probably a prank call,” Zuo Hancheng replied. After that, he threw the cell phone down before he turned around to pick her up, but the cell phone rang again, indicating that there was an incoming text message.
The cell phone that had been thrown on the carpet next to the sofa displayed the content of the short message.
Anhao, answer my call.
Zuo Hancheng knitted his brows tightly together when he saw the intimate and commanding tone of the text message. Gu Anhao’s cell phone then started ringing again.
It was already in the middle of the night. Who was calling her so persistently? Who could be so concerned about her to this extraordinary extent?
The Gu family? No, it was obviously impossible.
Gu Anhao continued grunting in an uncomfortable manner behind him, and when she saw that Zuo Hancheng was ignoring her because he was lost in his thoughts, she picked up the ice pack before placing it on her forehead.
Zuo Hancheng picked up the cellphone before he answered the call, and placed the cell phone against his ear.
“Anhao, where are you?”
A man’s voice sounded on the other end of the line.
The expression on Zuo Hancheng’s face changed immediately.
He felt that this voice was very familiar.
This voice belonged to Yi Zeyang, the heir of Yishi Group.
***
Yi Zeyang did not walk Gu Anhao back to her dormitory because he wanted to respect her wishes by leaving her alone.
However, he knew that Gu Anhao had drunk too much alcohol, and even though he had already woken her up before sending her back to school, he was not certain that she would be able to get safely back to her dormitory.
Furthermore, Yi Zeyang was worried because Gu Anhao also had a serious injury on her face. Therefore, after waiting for about half an hour, he called Gu Anhao’s roommate, a girl named Chunchun.
His original intention was to ask for her help to prepare an ice pack to apply on Anhao’s injury so that her cheek would not be so red and swollen the next day. However, after speaking to Chunchun, Yi Zeyang found out that Gu Anhao did not make it back to the dormitory.
