There was a long scratch, running from below her earlobe to her collar bone. It looked like a nail had scratched it. It was red and bleeding slightly in some spots.
It was nothing serious, not even worth mentioning. The scratch would get better in two or three days, although it looked so fresh. It was definitely a new scratch. Did that mean she had been scratched when she was kidnapped by Lame w.a.n.g?
Gu Yusheng, who had looked casual since he had shown up at the Tingyin Tea House, squinted his eyes. His face turned very gloomy.
Qin Zhi’ai noticed his anger. She was so scared that she didn’t dare move a bit. She let him put his hand on her head to check her ear.
Lame w.a.n.g put his tea cup down in surprise when he saw Gu Yusheng was about to leave but still standing at the door. Lame w.a.n.g seemed to be in a good mood, since he had received the land he had wanted for so long. He couldn’t help his smile when he spoke. He asked, “What’s wrong? Master Gu, is there anything I can help you with?”
“What’s wrong?” Gu Yusheng looked even gloomier than before when he heard what Lame w.a.n.g had asked.
He looked up to take a look at Lame w.a.n.g and responded casually, “Nothing. In terms of what just happened, I don’t think we’re done here yet, after thinking about it.”
Lame w.a.n.g was shocked. He could not stabilize his shaky smile for a while. He asked defensively, “Master Gu, what do you mean?”
“It means what it sounded like,” Gu Yusheng said. Qin Zhi’ai was suddenly dragged towards the bathroom. He was so fast that no one in the room noticed until Qin Zhi’ai was pushed into the bathroom. She stumbled and heard his warning in a low pitch before she realized what had happened. “Don’t come out!”
Gu Yusheng slammed the door closed with a huge bang. Qin Zhi’ai could hear the fighting through the door.
She thought to herself, Didn’t he say he would leave? What is he fighting for now? There are at least ten big, strong bodyguards. How could he fight all ten of them?
Qin Zhi’ai was so scared that she felt her heart trembling. She rushed to the door instinctively. She lifted her hands up and was about to pull the door open, but she remembered what Gu Yusheng had warned her: “Don’t come out.”
She was a woman with no training in fighting. If she went out like this, she would cause more trouble for him.
Qin Zhi’ai paused for a second and immediately drew her hands back. There was a booming noise outside that sounded like someone had been smashed into the shelf. Her body shook and trembled. She put her hand back on the k.n.o.b again and locked the door from the inside.
She didn’t know if Gu Yusheng or Lame w.a.n.g was winning, but she knew she wasn’t good at fighting and was better off staying in the bathroom. Staying in the bathroom was the best help she could offer.
There were sounds of gla.s.s shattering, women screaming, and wood breaking outside of the bathroom. People screamed in pain every once in a while.
Qin Zhi’ai couldn’t see what was happening outside the bathroom, so every time she heard a noise, she got scared and her heart sped up. Later, she started to breath heavily.
The banging noises lasted quite a while before they stopped.
Is the fight over? Qin Zhi’ai thought to herself.
Qin Zhi’ai felt like her legs were jelly at this point. She heard the knocking on the bathroom door when she slowly moved one step forward and was ready to open the door. She heard Gu Yusheng, but he sounded tensed and unhappy. “Open the door.”
