Chapter 379 Imploring
Standing downstairs of Gu Yans previous studio, Jiang Jingcheng thought of the words his father said. The pictures of Chen Qian and Gu Yan flashed through his mind.
He thought of Chen Qians tearful face when she was imploring, Gu Yans faint smile, and Chen Qians madness of persuading him to be a spy as well as Gu Yans unconditional trust to him.
Every scene was playing back and flashed quickly in his mind. At last, two pictures were frozen in his mind. One was that Chen Qian looked fierce, and the other was that Gu Yan sat at the office table dejectedly.
Jiang Jingcheng stared tightly at the floor where Gu Yans studio was. However, there was nobody there and the busy and energetic work atmosphere of the past had disappeared.
President Gu, Im sorry!
Jiang Jingcheng turned and left, but his painful and guilty voice was lingering over there.
Assistant Liu got a new job these days. She got this job which was not bad with previous work experience. As a new comer, she still had a lot of things to learn, so she had to work hard day and night. Only in the stillness of the night, she would think of those days she spent in Gu Yans studio. It all felt like a dream to her. In the meanwhile, she hated Jiang Jingchengs guts.
On this day, she got off work and was about to head home. The moment when she just stepped out of the door, a nightmarish voice came to her ears.
Liu!
Assistant Liu was very shocked and turned her head slowly. She saw the man standing on the side of the road. The mans appearance had changed a lot. He was more decadent. However, she could recognize him at the first sight even if he turned into bones.
She calmed down and said ironically and disgustedly, Our studios genius! Here you are! Youre still alive. What do you want? You destroyed our studio and disappeared then and now you just show up like this. What? Do you want me to award you some pennies?
She looked at him from head to toe and said disgustedly, Sorry. Id rather buy a meat bun to feed a dog with those pennies than give them to a rapacious and savage man like you. To be exactly, you are worse than a beast.
Looking at her, Jiang Jingcheng was full of sorrow and guilt. In the past, she was always complaisant to him. Now she said those malicious words like that, which showed that she had hated his guts already.
He didnt say a word because he didnt know what to say except making an apology. However, compared to her sufferings, his apology was feeble and futile.
His silence didnt allay her anger. She was more resentful. She came close to him, suppressed the urge to slap him, and said, Jiang Jingcheng, tell me why did you do that? Did President Gu, I or the studio let you down? Tell me why. Why did you do that?
Jiang Jingcheng closed his eyes painfully and then said, Sorry. I dont know how to explain it, but I will give you a detailed explanation then. Im here to ask you a favor!
Staring at him, she didnt know why she just believed his words subconsciously. She asked, What can I do?
Jiang Jingcheng looked at her in surprise. Actually he didnt hold a glimmer of hope at all, but because he didnt want to give up, he came to her. He never thought she would listen to him. At this moment, he thought perhaps she would forgive him and give him a second chance.
His eyes were full of gladness and he couldnt wait to say, Liu, could you tell me where President Gu is. I have something important to tell her. I
Assistant Liu gave him a slap before he finished talking.
She was just curious about what he wanted her to help. However, she didnt expect he would be so stubborn and still want to get President Gus whereabouts!
Jiang Jingcheng, you are a beast. You still want to take advantage on me on this occasion. Havent you done that enough? Look, its impossible for you to get some information about President Gu from me because I dont know where she is. In addition, I wont tell you even one word even if I know!
After the slap, she just stood still and glazed at him. The coldness in her eyes made him torturous.
Liu, I admitted that I took advantage of you, but trust me, I just want to say sorry to President Gu and help her. I have no other purposes. Please trust me, okay?
At end of his words, Jiang Jingcheng looked at her with imploring eyes.
However, what he said made Assistant Liu more disgusted. In her view, it was just his dirty trick to get what he wanted.
She just gazed at him and said, Jiang Jingcheng, what did President Gu do wrong? Why you still want to bother her? Is it only when she is dead that this can be over?
He wanted to say something, but was stopped by Assistant Liu. She said, Jiang Jingcheng, I confess that I had a crush on you, so I deserve to be used by you. I got my eyes blind. However, if you still want to take advantage of me, youd better drop the idea forever because I just want to kill you now. You got it?
He was heartbroken when he heard these cold words. Assistant Liu who was considerate and mild was disappeared.
He said in a sorrowful tone, Liu, trust me please. I really want to help President Gu. Come on! I have some secret things to tell her. Just trust me one last time, okay?
His words didnt warm her cold eyes. Just like the words she said, if it were not illegal to kill a person, she would kill him right now!
Jiang Jingcheng, save it. I wont tell you the whereabouts of President Gu. If you really want to help her, just leave her alone because that is the best way. Thats it. I have to go!
After these words, Assistant Liu just left. Jiang Jingcheng was left alone there, painfully watching her receding figure.
