Chapter 116 - You Won’t Be Able to Walk out of Here (2) (1/2)

Pang Hai had interacted with many different kinds of people before, but this was his first time dealing with someone as savage as Gu Yu. Shooting daggers out his eyes, his voice turned ominous as he asked, “Do you expect me to thank your wife for destroying my business?”

The man replied, “You may if you want to, but that’s not necessary!”

“Well done, Gu Yu. Today, I’ll make sure that you won’t be able to walk out of here alive!” He pulled out a pistol from under the couch and kicked the coffee table away. Standing in front of Gu Yu, he aimed the cold metal gun right between his eyes!

When Xu Weilai woke up, her mind was blank. Her head was hurting, her body was cold and aching, and she felt very uncomfortable everywhere. Her nose was blocked and her throat felt like it was on fire.

She stared at the white ceiling in a daze for a good minute or so before she regained consciousness.

Her eyes felt stiff when she first moved them, and she looked around. Confusion clouded her eyes. Had she lost her senses? That place didn’t look like the bedroom in the apartment!

When the nurse stepped out of the bathroom, she saw that Xu Weilai had opened her eyes. She took two steps towards her, and exclaimed excitedly, “Miss Xu, you’ve woken up!”

Xu Weilai took her time to look at her, and when she opened her mouth to speak, her voice was hoarse and sounded like the crunch of gravel. “You are…?”

She poured her a glass of water and replied, “Miss Xu, I’m the nurse that Mr. Gu hired. How do you feel now? Do you feel any better?”

As she spoke, she raised the incline of the hospital bed and lifted the cup of warm water to Xu Weilai’s lips. “Please have some water, Miss Xu.”

Xu Weilai was parched and didn’t bother with the formalities. She grabbed the glass of water from her and finished it all in one sitting. With moisture finally coating her throat, the burning sensation lessened, and the frown on her face dissipated.

After approximately half a minute, she spoke again. “I’m now in the hospital? Was… Gu Yu the one who sent me here?”
