Lu Anran thought she had heard him wrong, but she suddenly remembered what Jing Cheng had said to her in the car and couldn’t help asking, “Then why didn’t you just tell me when I went to see you yesterday?”

“You accused me of so many stuff without getting to the bottom of things. Did I have to smile and endure it?”

Lu Anran ignored the derision in his words and suddenly became scared. She blurted out, “Was someone trying to harm my dad? I thought that the explosion accident was unusual at the time. My dad spent half his life in the laboratory, so it was impossible for him to make such a mistake that caused alcohol to spontaneously ignite. However, the police judged that it was an accident…”

“Who have you said these things to?” In the dark, Gu Liangchen frowned. He then warned Lu Anran, “Some nonsense can’t be said. If the police say that it is an accident, then it is an accident. If you make accusations without proof, you’ll be questioning the law and bringing trouble to yourself, got it?”

Realizing that she spoke on impulse, Lu Anran bit her lip and immediately fell silent.

Gu Liangchen wanted to be sure that she understood. “Speak. Did you get it?”

Anran was taken aback by his low growl, but she replied, rolling her eyes in the dark, “Got it.”

After a moment of silence, she spoke again, “Since you’re tired, then I will go back to the hospital to take care of my dad…”

Gu Liangchen raised his hand and pulled her back. His grasp was firm and tight. His long fingers rubbed her temples, and his tone was commanding. “Your dad has a caregiver to take care of him. He’ll be fine.”

She wanted to move again, but she heard him say, “Be obedient. I will find a kidney donor for Professor Lu as soon as possible.”

He made her stay completely still by saying the magic words.

The touch of the man’s dry and rough fingertips brought warmth. Lu Anran’s tense nerves slowly relaxed, and she felt as if her headache was relieved.

She opened her eyes in the dark and stared at the hazy face close at hand.

Things were unpredictable, and after many years, even until now, she still had to admit that even though she hated him in her heart, he was the man who she had given her youth and affection after all, and the slightest gentleness from him could make her heart ache with pain.

Since she had been ruthlessly abandoned at the beginning, why didn’t he just abandon her completely?

Countless resentments and grievances came rushing through her head. She suddenly bit his shoulder hysterically until her mouth tasted blood.

Except for the sudden moan at the beginning when her teeth sunk in, Gu Liangchen didn’t say a word and simply let her bite him.

The rain outside was getting heavier. With thunder and lightning, raindrops were pattering on the glass windows, and they muffled Lu Anran’s low sobs in his shoulder.

It also concealed the car lights at the gate, and the sound of the engine slowly stopping.

Zhu Lanyi sat in the driver’s seat. The knuckles of her fingers holding the steering wheel turned white while she stared at the two-story house in the courtyard.

There was no light in any window, and it looked dark like an empty house. However, she knew that Gu Liangchen was in there with another woman at the moment.

Zhu Lanyi, the wife, could only hide in the dark and watch, as if she was the one who couldn’t be brought out in the open.

The rain calmed down, but the sound of the wind was getting louder and louder, as if a ghost was crying in the night. The branches on the trees shook in different ways.

Zhu Lanyi suddenly shivered, and her back felt cold. She frantically started the car and left in a panic.

After the rain, the sun came out in the morning.

Gu Liangchen had already left when Lu Anran opened her eyes. She looked at the bright sunlight outside the window, and she froze for a moment…
