Chapter 987: The One Behind the Scenes
to move them into the car."Seeing Cheng Ke'xin treat her as if she were invisible, Cheng Ruoruo clenched her fists tightly, a ferocious expression flashing across her face, but in an instant it change..."Do you remember what I told you before Congratulations, you're going to hell soon!"
Gu Kejun, after sarcastically taunting Gu Keyu in high heels, quickly left the scene. She didn't leave through the broken iron gate, instead, she walked to the back door of the container, but before she could make a move, the big iron gate was pushed open.
The visitor was Lu Jiayan, his face full of anxiety. He pushed the door open, his face pale with panic, followed by several tall and burly bodyguards.
"Catch up quickly!"
Lu Jiayan pointed at the small door of the shipping container and said to the people behind him, then rushed to Gu Keyu's side in three or two steps, pulling her into his arms.
"Sorry, I'm late."
After he finished speaking, he slowly tore off the adhesive tape from Gu Ke Yu's mouth and carefully checked her wounds.
Originally, Gu Ke Yu had already suffered a lot on his way to this dilapidated warehouse, his body covered in bruises and cuts. Many places had been scraped open, oozing drops of blood.
Besides being kicked several times by those men in black, he had lost all feeling in his body. The pain was starting to numb.
“I know who hurt me, and I’m certain it was Gu Kejun and Xie Qingqing working together to harm me.”
Lu Jiayan gently held Gu Keyu in his arms, stroking her head and soothingly said, "Don't worry, I will definitely not let them get away with this time."
Just now, the group of bodyguards who came with Lu Jiayan left and returned, but each person had a dejected expression on their faces. The one at the front even said apologetically: "I'm sorry, sir, the person is gone."
"Ran Are you kidding me You mean to tell me that so many of you couldn't even catch up to a single woman!"
Lu Jiayan's face instantly turned ugly, and he lost control of his temper, roaring at the bodyguards: "What good are you to me!"
The group of bodyguards hung their heads, no longer daring to look at Lu Jiayan.
"I was about to succeed, but I didn't expect to drop the ball at the crucial moment!"
Lü Jìyán said unwillingly after, and touched Gu Kēyǔ's purple cheek, saying to her with heartache: "It's all my fault that I came late today, causing you to be like this."
"I'm fine, just some minor injuries. Don't blame yourself. Besides, we didn't come up empty-handed today. Now we know for sure who the real culprit is. We can keep a close eye on them from now on. Over time, they won't be able to hide their true colors."
Gu Ke Yu extended his hand to clasp Lu Ji Yan's palm, a fierce expression appearing on his face: "Rest assured, I won't let them get away with this. Good and evil will eventually be repaid."
Although today he was just one step away from catching the mastermind behind it all, there was no other way now. After Lu Jiayan sent those bodyguards away, he got into the car with Gu Ke'yu and drove to the hospital.
"After I'm done checking you over, I'll send you straight back to your apartment. These next two days, I have to thoroughly investigate them and try my best to find some leads." Lu Jiayan kept his eyes forward, his face turning cold: "I will definitely make them pay for what they've done!"
Because there were constant accidents on set, Gu Ke'yu could be said to return home with injuries every day. So when she returned to the apartment wrapped in bandages, Xiao Tang and Tang Lijia didn't show much extra emotion on their faces. After helping her to a chair, they both went back to their own things.
Lu Jiayan indeed did as he said in the car. After settling Gu Keyu, he hurriedly left the district. In the end, Gu Keyu, under Xiaodong's care, had dinner with them.
She slowly made her way back to her room, lying down on the soft bed and staring blankly at the ceiling with wide open eyes.
The snow-white ceiling was spotless. Gu Ke Yu stared at it, his eyes losing focus as he drifted into deep thought.
Even if she didn't want to face it, she had to admit that Xie Qingqing and Gu Kejun were the ones behind this. The only thing that gave Gu Keyu a headache was why Gu Kejun did this to her—it was just revenge. But what was Xie Qingqing's motive
She is a true businesswoman, she would never do anything that would harm her own interests. Could it be that she secretly did something wrong
Recalling the risky eavesdropping he had done at the bar last time, Gu Ke'yu once again fell into contemplation. Xie Qingqing seemed to be trying to stop him from obtaining something she shouldn't have, but what exactly was it
Besides this thought, Gu Ke Yu also had another one in her mind. The person who took her life in her past life was the hidden Land General. This time, with these accidents happening one after another, could it be related to him again
If all these accidents are really related to these two groups of people, then they must have a common goal. What could possibly be something that would make them both want to take their own lives
All the questions were like bubbles surging into Gu Ke Yu's mind. She stared at the white ceiling, feeling drowsy and eventually lost consciousness, falling asleep in a daze.
He is still filming on set every day. If those bodyguards and thugs were to follow, it would be too obvious of a target. However, for his own personal safety and the plans behind him, Gu Ke'yu still decided that he had to have someone lurking in the shadows around him to keep an eye on his movements.
"Let's cooperate, you secretly film me from now on."
Gu Ke Yu sat in the quiet cafe, slowly speaking to Liu Xu.
"Cough! What..."
The coffee Liu Xu just sent into her mouth went straight down her throat, and she hurriedly took out a tissue to wipe the corner of her mouth while looking at Gu Ke with a puzzled expression.
"What are you saying You want me to take pictures of you secretly Are you sure that's okay You're a star, and I'm a gossip reporter!"
"I know you're a reporter, and a very excellent one at that. Besides, there's nothing wrong with what I just said." Gu Keyu smiled at her twice.
Then, gently swirling the coffee cup in his hand, he addressed Liu Xu seriously: “I’m not here to joke with you today. I really have something to ask for your help, and this time I need it very much. Besides, if you do me this favor, you won't miss out on the benefits either.” Lu Jiyan carry her out of the private room. Even though law enforcement had just been here, this place was still bustling with people. Men and women were drunk and reveling in each other's company. S...
