Chapter 117: Facing a Choice Between 2
Gu Tingyan woke up from his daze when he heard the voice, and the pain in his head made him frown subconsciously.
"hiss--"
As his consciousness gradually returned, the surrounding scenes began to become clear in front of his eyes. When he saw his current situation clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank.
"Where...am I?!"
He slowly raised his eyes, his sight fixed on the familiar figure opposite him. His expression was shocked, and he blurted out: "An An, why are you here? What's going on? Are you kidnapping me?"
Lu Anan's heart was filled with doubts. After hearing what Gu Tingyan said, she sighed and said speechlessly, "Wake up. Why would I kidnap you? You should think about how you got here."
[Last time at the resort, I was a little suspicious of this guy, and it's the same this time. Why did that pervert tie Gu Tingyan here for no apparent reason? Did he know the plot and knew that Gu Tingyan was the male lead, so he did it on purpose, or... was it Gu Tingyan from the beginning? ]
Lu Anan's eyes flickered as she looked at Gu Tingyan, her eyes full of deep thought.
[If it's the first one, then why did he kidnap Gu Tingyan when he knew he was the male protagonist? For the male protagonist's luck? Did he want to destroy the novel world?]
[If it is the second one, why did Gu Tingyan put himself in such a dangerous situation? ]
These thoughts swirled in her mind, difficult to capture, and even more difficult to sort out, so she had no choice but to ask, "Hey, Gu Tingyan, do you remember?"
Gu Tingyan quickly reviewed every detail of the aftermath of the banquet in his mind until the last moment before the chaos became unusually clear. He slowly said, "I remember that I had just attended a banquet and was sent back to the apartment by my agent. The moment I opened the door, I was hit hard on the back of my head. I passed out, and when I woke up, I was hanging here."
Hearing this, Lu Anan narrowed her eyes slightly, and she opened her red lips slightly, saying doubtfully: "Then can you think of who kidnapped you?"
Gu Tingyan frowned, his expression solemn, and shook his head helplessly: "This circle is inherently complicated and changeable, and it seems that I have offended a lot of people. I can't filter them out in a short time."
Lu Anan: "..."
[This person is quite good at getting into trouble. ]
She caught sight of Lu Yixuan out of the corner of her eye and paused before asking, "Is there anyone that you and Lu Yixuan have a grudge against at the same time?"
Gu Tingyan turned around and glanced at Lu Yixuan, his expression revealing his undisguised disdain and arrogance: "No, the person who wants to kill him is probably not at the level to kidnap me."
Lu Anan couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth when he heard this.
【What is there to be proud of?】
She gathered her emotions, took a deep breath, and tried to make her voice sound calm: "So you can't think of someone who can kidnap you?"
Gu Tingyan shook his head: "I really can't think of it."
At this moment, Lu Yixuan finally struggled to get rid of the rag that was blocking his mouth, and then a heart-wrenching cry for help pierced the air: "Save me! Lu Anan! I don't want to die! Save me!"
The roar in her ears made Lu Anan rub her painful ears involuntarily. Her tone was a little indifferent and teasing: "But you asked for this, didn't you? You asked someone to kidnap me, but because you were too stupid, you were kidnapped. You still have the nerve to ask me to save you?"
Lu Yixuan choked, and after a long while he managed to squeeze out a hint of excuse: "It was just a temporary measure at that time. We couldn't beat those strong men, so I had to keep calm and bide my time!"
Lu Anan's expression suddenly turned cold, and a hint of sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth: "You'd better not taint this word. People who hear it find it ironic."
She paused, her eyes turned to pity, and she looked at Lu Yixuan carefully: "Besides, you are the only virtual king who can't be defeated, so don't bring those guys, it's just you."
Lu Anan emphasized specifically.
Lu Yixuan was choked again, his face turned pale, and his teeth chattered: "You, are you going to save him or not?"
Lu Anan lightly scratched his ears and replied leisurely, "No."
Lu Yixuan's face was instantly filled with gloom. He slowly turned his head, his eyes slid across Gu Tingyan like a snake, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which was full of threats: "Well, in this case, I will take your little lover to hell with me!"
After saying that, his body twisted violently. The force was so great that the thick branches carrying the weight of two men began to tremble slightly, making a dangerous "creaking" sound.
Seeing this, Gu Tingyan's heart suddenly tightened, and he yelled, "Behave yourself! Don't force me to destroy you!"
Lu Yixuan just sneered even more, with a bit more determination and madness in his smile: "Lu Anan won't save me anyway, I'm going to die, why do I still care about your threats? Gu Tingyan, just be my scapegoat!"
He started shaking madly again. The rope that kept them balanced rubbed against the thick branches. Every touch was accompanied by a harsh friction sound, which was frightening.
Lu Anan's eyes flashed, and her figure instantly turned into a nimble shadow, quickly arriving under another tree. She held the rope that was stretched to the limit tightly with both hands, her fingers slightly whitening due to the force, and then pulled it back inch by inch.
Gu Tingyan was looking at Lu Yixiuan, who was smiling provocatively and strangely, with anxiety and anger, when he felt himself being slowly lifted up.
He turned his head and looked at Lu Anan with difficulty, a dark light flashing in his eyes.
His voice was low and hoarse, with a bitter smile on his lips, and he whispered: "An An, please do your best to save me. If you can't save me...please go back and tell my brother that all the precious figurines in my room are given to him, and ask him not to always go against our parents. If I fall down like this, I will probably be torn into pieces. Don't let them bother looking for me at the bottom of the cliff."
There was a hint of self-deprecation in his words: "I have been handsome for more than 20 years. Even if I die, I will never let them see me so ugly, including your brother."
He changed the subject and said jokingly, "The biggest regret in my life is that I didn't take your second brother with me when I died. When I thought about my death, he would probably be angry for three days, and I would feel like ants crawling on my body."
"So, sister, please wait until I die and put my portrait next to your second brother. I will scare him to death..."
Lu Anan tried her best to tighten the rope in her hand until it almost reached its limit. Listening to Gu Tingyan's last words, she said speechlessly: "You really love my brother deeply. At this time, why don't you let him go?"
Gu Tingyan's face was as pale as paper, but he forced a smile, and his tone was a bit cynical: "It's your brother who always likes to go against me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yanli's familiar roar exploded from the cliff.
"Gu Tingyan! You've got someone hanging on a cliff, and you're still talking nonsense to me behind my back. Are you sick in the brain?!"
Gu Tingyan looked over when he heard the voice, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and then a disdainful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Why do you care about me? I'm almost dead. What's wrong with you, Cricket?"
Lu Yanli strode up to Lu Anan and rolled his eyes when he heard her words: "Don't worry, I won't make trouble for three days after you die."
Gu Tingyan was stunned: "You..."
"I'll let it go for a week!"
Lu Yanli said in a venomous tone.
Lu Anan looked at the two people who were still flirting at the critical moment of life and death, and said unbearably: "Hey, can you go back and solve your problem? Can you save those two sausages first? My arms are sore!"
