Chapter 16 : Domestic Violence? He Dares

  • After dinner, Su Luoluo quickly slipped back to her room.
  • The servant had prepared clean pajamas for her, and after a simple shower, she discovered that there were so many bruises on her body...
  • Su Luoluo gasped in shock and, in order to avoid being discovered, took out foundation and applied it to the wounds.
  • Thinking about last night, a thin layer of sweat had already formed on her forehead.
  • Recalling the look in Gu Tingjun's eyes downstairs, her grip on her hand loosened, and her delicate eyebrows furrowed.
  • Gu Tingjun should be busy with his date with Tang Ran, so he wouldn't have time to bother with her.
  • After several days of coming home late, Su Luoluo finally aroused Gu Tingjun's dissatisfaction.
  • That night, after she finished dinner and was about to go to the bathroom with a towel in her hand, she was grabbed by the wrist by the man who had followed her upstairs and forcefully thrown onto the bed.
  • Gu Tingjun had been patient for a long time.
  • After throwing her onto the bed, he blocked her way.
  • He stared deeply at the young woman lying on the bed...
  • "Second Young Master, is something wrong?" Su Luoluo was startled, but she still put on a smile.
  • A smile that concealed her guilt.
  • Her fingers had clenched into a fist and were pressing against her clothes. Gu Tingjun's gaze, which seemed like he wanted to devour her, was terrifying...
  • But he shouldn't be interested in a woman like her, right?
  • So there was nothing to worry about.
  • Gu Tingjun took in all the changing expressions on the girl's face, and the innocent expression of a little white rabbit was for whom? A layer of frost covered Gu Tingjun's handsome face.
  • Ignoring Su Luoluo's gaze, he approached her directly, not caring that she widened her eyes, and rolled up her sleeves.
  • "Madam, I never expected that you would like this kind of thing, hmm?"
  • "Ah..."
  • "These marks on your arms, how did you get them?" Gu Tingjun's face darkened.
  • These marks, along with the bruises all over...
  • Su Luoluo's mind turned to stone, and she immediately pulled back her arm. "I, I accidentally bumped into something."
  • "Accidentally?"
  • "Yes... I just arrived at the Gu family and I'm not familiar with the layout and decorations in the house. It's inevitable that I would bump into things. Second Young Master, you don't have to worry about this, right?"
  • As she listened to the man's questioning, she felt like she had lost her soul.
  • Fortunately, she had anticipated this situation. Su Luoluo had been following the senior actors on the set all day, and she had even learned to act convincingly.
  • Just as Gu Tingjun was about to retort, he saw the girl close her eyes and her long, thick eyelashes fluttered like a butterfly about to take flight. When she opened her eyes again, they shimmered with a glimmer of light.
  • She surprisedly sat up and reached out to grab Gu Tingjun's hand.
  • "Second Young Master, I thought you didn't care about me. I didn't expect you to be so concerned..."
  • "Let go!"
  • Gu Tingjun's whole body was covered in goosebumps.
  • He glanced at Su Luoluo with disgust.
  • The girl was thrown off by him, and she accidentally hit the foot of the bed, gasping for breath.
  • Tears unexpectedly fell from her pitch-black eyes.
  • She forced a smile and said, "See, I always get hurt."
  • "..."
  • A self-mocking smile appeared on the girl's lips, and that smile stabbed directly into her own heart. Gu Tingjun felt like an invisible hand was grabbing and releasing his heart, making him uncomfortable.
  • He had never felt this way before.
  • Su Luoluo suddenly lowered her head, feeling a heavy stone in her chest that couldn't rise or fall.
  • She looked at the red marks on her wrist and the bruises on her arms.
  • Su Luoluo, who was supposed to be the daughter of the Su family, how could she end up working as a substitute on a film set? It was unlikely that anyone would believe such a thing if she said it.
  • But she was a fake.
  • "Second Young Master, all the scars on my body are actually caused by my own carelessness. You...?"
  • ??
  • Where did he go?
  • Su Luoluo explained with a desolate look in her eyes, but she found that Gu Tingjun had already disappeared.
  • She didn't have time to look for him. A day of intense physical activity had exhausted her brain, and she quickly fell asleep.
  • In her dream, she suddenly felt a chilling sensation on her body...
  • It felt so comfortable.
  • She couldn't help but let out a whimper, and when she opened her eyes, she saw a pitch-black head.
  • "Ah"
  • "Don't move."
  • Gu Tingjun had obtained some medicinal wine for bruises from the servant downstairs and returned to find the young woman already asleep. He had intended to wake her up and let her apply the medicine herself, but as he got closer, he noticed a faint blue color under her eyes. Her exhausted appearance instantly struck a chord in his heart.
  • Gu Tingjun sighed and took on the task himself.
  • There were light and heavy bruises on her thighs and calves, indicating that they were not caused in a single day.
  • The more Gu Tingjun applied the medicine, the more he discovered the numerous hidden scars on Su Luoluo's body...
  • It seemed like they would never be completely covered.
  • His dangerous black eyes narrowed, and his hands involuntarily slowed down. What had this girl been through?
  • "Second Young Master..."
  • "Awake? Su Luoluo, do you still want to hide this from me?" Gu Tingjun's dark eyes were filled with a hint of anger.
  • With so many injuries, only a fool would believe they were accidental.
  • Gu Tingjun's face darkened. Did this woman think he was a fool?
  • Su Luoluo's fair skin was covered in those marks, and Gu Tingjun's heart was enveloped in an indescribable emotion. He just wanted to find the bastard who did this and tell him that his wife wasn't so easily bullied.
  • No, Su Luoluo could only bully herself.
  • Gu Tingjun grabbed her wrist. "Let's go, we're going to the Su family now. If someone dares to hurt you, they should bear the consequences."
