Chapter 159 Jackson Reappears
Chapter 159 Jackson Reappears
“Take her to Emerald Green Garden,” Gu Ye said.
Emerald Garden?
Wasn't that the house Gu Ye bought for her? Chu Xinglan immediately said to Shu Weiting, "Tingting, let's leave here now."
"Where can we go?" Shu Weiting was somewhat desperate.
Chu Xinglan glanced at Gu Ye. The fact that he said that meant that Cuiluyuan was safe, perhaps temporarily, but it was better than having no solution at all. As for what would happen next, they could figure that out later.
Not long after, Chu Xinglan brought Shu Weiting to the new house in Cuiluyuan. Looking at this familiar place, Chu Xinglan was filled with emotion. She turned to look at Gu Ye.
"You've kept this place all this time?"
"This is your place, and I will naturally keep it forever." Gu Ye gazed at Chu Xinglan with deep affection.
Shu Weiting looked at them and felt like a third wheel.
"Lanlan, are you with me?" Shu Weiting is very afraid of being alone now.
"No, she wants to be with me." Gu Ye forcefully pulled Chu Xinglan to his side.
"Gu Ye." Chu Xinglan was a little embarrassed and pretended to be angry as she glared at him, but she still insisted on her position, "I will stay here to keep Tingting company."
"Alright then, I won't bother you. You two get some rest." Gu Ye said helplessly, knowing that she wouldn't abandon her friends at this time.
Gu Ye then left.
"Has he left?" Shu Weiting watched Gu Ye's departing figure, then turned back to ask Chu Xinglan.
"I guess so," Chu Xinglan said shyly. "He lives right across from us."
Shu Weiting carefully toured the house and came up to Chu Xinglan: "Is this the house that Gu Ye gave you?"
Chu Xinglan nodded gently.
"Gu Ye is really generous!" Shu Weiting said with genuine envy. "That's right, Gu Ye is never stingy with you, he would even give you his life."
"I don't want his life. What would I do with his life?" Chu Xinglan said seriously.
"It seems you're not entirely without feelings for him, so why can't you be together?" Shu Weiting wondered. What was Chu Xinglan running away from? She couldn't give up on a man who was good to her because of her past experiences.
"Let's not talk about this anymore," Chu Xinglan changed the subject. "Just stay here and relax. I'll take care of anything that comes up."
"Thank you, Lanlan." Shu Weiting opened her arms and hugged Chu Xinglan tightly, expressing her heartfelt gratitude.
"What are you thanking me for? We're like family." Chu Xinglan smiled and gently patted Shu Weiting's back.
For several days, all was well, and they almost forgot about Jackson. Chu Xinglan happily walked out of the community, ready to buy some fruit and snacks.
Because she was afraid of being discovered by Jackson's men, Shu Weiting had been staying in the house and hadn't gone out. Chu Xinglan would occasionally go out once or twice, but most of the time she was with Shu Weiting. The peaceful days had put her mind at ease, and she originally planned to celebrate properly. However, when she walked out of the community, she bumped into several people with unusual identities.
Chu Xinglan glanced at those people subconsciously, and what she saw shocked her.
Among the crowd, a blond man wearing sunglasses looked particularly familiar.
Chu Xinglan was so frightened that she froze in place.
The other person seemed to sense Chu Xinglan's presence as well, turning back to glance at her with a charming yet dangerous smile on their lips.
Before Chu Xinglan could react, those people hurriedly left her side.
It's Jackson, he's here, he's finally here!
Startled, Chu Xinglan quickly returned and saw Jackson and his men walk straight to their floor and then enter the elevator.
Chu Xinglan's first reaction was to call the police, but then she thought that even if she did, it would be useless, so she called Shu Weiting instead.
Shu Weiting, who was tidying up her bedroom, suddenly heard the doorbell ring, which puzzled her.
Lanlan forgot her keys, but then she realized it was a fingerprint lock, and Chu Xinglan's fingerprints were already registered, so she didn't need a key. Who could be outside? Could it be Gu Ye?
Gu Ye has been coming over frequently these past few days, not for her, but for Chu Xinglan, so it's quite normal for him to ring the doorbell at this time.
Just as Shu Weiting was about to open the door, her phone rang.
Shu Weiting answered the phone first.
"Lanlan, where are you?"
"Tingting, Jackson is here. He's right outside the door. Don't open the door."
"Jackson!" Shu Weiting was so startled that she dropped her phone, which shattered on the ground. Chu Xinglan's broken voice came through the phone, "Tingting...can you...hear me?"
Shu Weiting walked shakily to the door, turned on the monitor, and saw Jackson's handsome yet dangerous face. She nervously covered her mouth with both hands, afraid that making even the slightest sound would attract the attention of the devil outside.
He came, but he still wouldn't let her go.
The doorbell kept ringing, but to Shu Weiting, it wasn't a doorbell but a terrifying death knell. She was so scared that she could only cover her mouth with her hand, not daring to make a sound, not even a breath, for fear that the other person had super hearing and would hear the noise inside and find her right there, behind the door.
She didn't know how much time had passed before the doorbell stopped ringing. Shu Weiting hurriedly checked the outside using the security camera, but the face that had filled her with endless fear was not in the video. Not only was he not there, but neither were his men. The outside was empty.
Shu Weiting breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground.
Not long after, the door opened and Chu Xinglan rushed in from outside. She saw Shu Weiting slumped on the ground and quickly helped her up.
"Tingting, don't be afraid, it's alright, it's all over now."
Chu Xinglan comforted her.
Shu Weiting suddenly woke up from her nightmare, her face pale as she stared at Chu Xinglan.
"Lanlan, he's here. He's found me again. I can't escape now."
"Tingting, don't be afraid, I won't let him hurt you." Chu Xinglan hugged her, giving her strength.
Although Shu Weiting knew that if Jackson really found her, Chu Xinglan wouldn't be able to protect her, she could only calm herself down by looking at her friend who was comforting her.
Just then, the doorbell rang again.
Shu Weiting was like a frightened bird, and Chu Xinglan was also extremely nervous at this moment.
Jackson's terrifying face reappeared in the surveillance footage.
Moreover, this time the other party seemed to have come prepared. He seemed to know that Chu Xinglan and the others were watching him. His handsome face was turned towards the camera, a slit appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his lips opened and closed as if to say: I know you are in there, little kitten, come out obediently!
