Chapter 2844: I Knew You Would Come

Chu He pinched his tiny cheeks again and reached out to hug him.
Suddenly, from behind, a cold body pressed up tightly against her.
Shocked, her expression froze. She was about to turn around when she felt something cold and hard poking into her lower back.
With her years of experience, she immediately realized that this hard object was not anything else but a gun.
She could even easily feel the coldness emitting from the muzzle.
Who is that?
Chu He broke out in cold sweat.
There was no other reason but one.
When she entered the room, there was no one else in it apart from Baby Chu, who was sleeping soundly on the bed.
She had locked the door from the inside just now. Even if the person could unlock the door from the outside, it would still have made a sound?!
However, not only did this person not make any sound, she did not detect it when he was standing right behind her!
She was a very alert person with extremely sharp senses, but she did not notice it when this man was standing right behind her!
Chu He didn’t dare to move, afraid that the man behind her would pull the trigger.
She could not figure out this man’s ident.i.ty.
Perhaps it was because she was too nervous that she lost her ability to make an a.s.sessment of this stranger.
However, after a moment of calming herself she suddenly smelled a faint fragrance.
The aroma of Orchids?
A somewhat familiar fragrance!
Just as she continued to guess at this man’s ident.i.ty, Gu Jinglian’s cold and distinct voice spoke over her head.
“I thought you weren’t coming.”
Chu He’s body suddenly trembled. For countless nights, this voice had been her curse.
Even during the five years that she had lost her memory, whenever she slept poorly, this would be the voice haunting her. It was like a demonic charm, bewitching her heart!
It was him!
“Gu Jinglian?”
Chu He sucked in a breath of cold air as her back tensed up. “It’s you…?”
“Why wouldn’t it be?”
Gu Jinglian raised his eyebrows and snorted. “This is my room. Other than myself, no one else has the right to set foot in here!”
Chu He gritted her teeth. “I locked the door. Why didn’t you make a sound coming in?”
“Because I was already in the room from the start. I’ve never left it.”
“What?”
Gu Jinglian smiled coldly. “I knew you would come.”
“…”
Chu He had always made her biggest mistakes when judging this person!
The man was extremely unpredictable.
During her days as an anti-vice inspector, she had been a.s.signed to stay close to the man. As an undercover agent, she had indeed stolen many things from him and submitted a lot of evidence against him to the headquarters. However, it was only later that she realized that the information she had secretly smuggled back to the headquarters was considered extremely rare and precious to him.
The evidence was not adequate for the purpose of pressing charges against him!
She realized at once that perhaps he had sensed her disloyalty from a very long time ago and had long suspected her background and ident.i.ty.
The so-called evidence was just a set up to test her and find out more about her!
“You…”
Just when Chu He was about to turn around, she felt a knife on her neck. Then, she felt a sharp pain and blacked out.
