Chapter 186 Luo Yuchuan's entanglement with Guan Lingshuang
Chapter 186 Luo Yuchuan's entanglement with Guan Lingshuang
Guan Ling Shuang was slightly taken aback upon seeing this, but quickly regained her composure and thought to herself:
Hmph! This stinky man is nothing but a handsome face, what's so great about him! If it weren't for the fact that you're not bad-looking, why would I keep staring at you like that?
Thinking this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, then quickly looked away, ignoring the man.
Guan Ling Shuang stopped paying attention to him and quickly drove the carriage away from the alley behind the Marquis's residence. She thought that this was the end of it, and they would go their separate ways.
However, just as Guan Ling Shuang was driving her carriage and turned onto another side street, and then turned through two more alleys, she encountered that man again.
A muffled thud was heard, followed by a series of screams from women—
[Hiss... Ah...]
Ouch! My head hurts so much from bumping it!
Good heavens! Couldn't this guy slow down a little when driving the carriage? My head is about to be smashed open!
[Waaaaah...it hurts so much! That damned guy, he's absolutely awful!]
Oh dear! I'm only in my forties, in the prime of my youth, beautiful as a flower. Am I really going to die young like this?
Guan Ling Shuang tried hard to suppress her laughter, finding the voice utterly amusing. A woman in her forties shamelessly claiming to be "as beautiful as a flower"—didn't she feel even a little embarrassed?
Hehehe… She chuckled, then heard that voice again, and shouted angrily:
【Ugh...it's all because of that damned Gu Yunchen!】
Gu Yunchen.
Wait, Gu... Gu Yunchen!?
Is it the Gu Yunchen she knows?
If it really is him, then isn't he the son of her father's friend?
But how come I heard his name here?
In an instant, alarm bells rang in Guan Ling Shuang's mind, and she became tense.
But then she thought, what if... all of this was just... her hallucination or auditory hallucination?
Perhaps, just maybe, she suddenly gained some extraordinary magical ability, such as being able to hear the inner voices of others?
With such trepidation, Guan Ling Shuang's gaze involuntarily swept over the black carriage beside her once again.
However, the moment their eyes met, she met the man's eyes, which were filled with malice and murderous intent, as if he were about to rush over and kill her at any moment.
Guan Ling Shuang: "..."
She couldn't help but gasp!
Could it be that this isn't just her being overly sensitive or imagining things, but that this person truly harbors ill intentions towards her?
Well, at this moment she was full of doubts and could no longer be sure of her current situation.
Perhaps it was because her condition was getting worse that she had the idea of going out to relax and unwind.
Unexpectedly, this trip not only failed to alleviate her symptoms, but also caused her to suffer from terrible auditory hallucinations, making her already bad condition even worse.
No, this absolutely cannot continue. She must find a highly skilled doctor to examine her as soon as possible.
Could it be that some vague or even confused childhood memories are resurfacing, triggering a series of new problems and leading to the current deteriorating situation?
Just a short while ago, she was perfectly normal, but in just a short time, she started experiencing auditory hallucinations.
Oh dear, could it be that her condition is getting worse, just as she feared?
Thinking of this possibility, Guan Ling Shuang subconsciously glanced at the man opposite her again, to see if she could still hear that voice.
Then even the man opposite him quickly drove away from that place.
For some reason, a strange conditioned reflex suddenly surged into her mind, and she suddenly raised the whip in her hand and lashed it hard across the horse's rump.
With a crisp crack of the whip, the startled horses instantly spurred themselves into a gallop, and the carriage shot off in a flash, quickly closing in on the carriage in front.
Oh wait, something's not right!
When she came to her senses, Guan Ling Shuang couldn't help but feel annoyed: What on earth was going on? Why did she inexplicably follow that person's carriage?
Could it be... that I'm really sick, to the point that my behavior is starting to get out of control?
However, Guan Ling Shuang soon realized that something was wrong, so she immediately forgot her doubts about whether she was sick or not and began to deal with the sudden change in front of her.
Guan Ling Shuang muttered to herself, as she was surprised to find that the carriage was heading in an increasingly remote direction.
After passing through bustling crowds and lively streets, we finally arrived at a place so quiet that we couldn't see a single person.
The path was very narrow, and a few steps further on, it became even more desolate, with no signs of human activity whatsoever.
If Guan Ling Shuang hadn't been closely following the person in front of her, she would have found it hard to believe that such a little-known place was hidden in the bustling capital city.
She followed cautiously behind, turning left and right, and before she knew it, she was almost lost herself.
Just as she was feeling a little dizzy, her eyes suddenly lit up—at the end of the alley, a familiar black carriage appeared.
Isn't this the carriage that she's been following?
The carriage was parked there all alone, with no way forward and a high wall at the end, clearly a dead end.
Guan Ling Shuang stopped the carriage at the corner, hid inside the carriage to observe the carriage, and dared not breathe, her body tense and motionless.
Based on her years of experience in the martial arts world, she could tell that the current situation clearly exuded an eerie and dangerous atmosphere.
At first, Guan Ling Shuang only had some doubts about this matter, but at this moment, she was very certain that there must be something seriously wrong.
[So much time has passed, why is there still no news?]
Jiang Mianmian thought anxiously, and a layer of fine sweat appeared on her forehead.
Could it be... that we've already reached our destination?
This is it! This time, the odds are really against us!
Jiang Mianmian secretly groaned in her heart.
How could my old bones possibly be a match for Luo Yuchuan?
Thinking of this, her face turned deathly pale, and her hands began to tremble involuntarily.
[It's over, looks like I'm going to die here today!]
Jiang Mianmian closed her eyes in despair.
【Aaaaaaah... Gu Yunchen, you big bastard! I told you long ago I was going to sever our mother-son relationship, but you still wouldn't listen!】
Now look what's happened! You've almost killed my mother!
[Hmph, don't expect me to let you off easily! The first thing I'll do when I get back is sever all ties with you as my so-called mother!]
At this moment, Guan Ling Shuang, who was sitting in another carriage, heard these words and couldn't help but feel curious.
She originally thought Gu Yunchen seemed rather aloof, but she never expected his mother to be such an interesting person.
Could it be that Gu Yunchen is more like his father?
If that's the case, then how did his father manage to win over his mother in the first place?
Guan Ling Shuang's thoughts raced like wild horses.
Despite the various thoughts swirling in her mind, her eyes remained fixed on the scenery outside the car window, not daring to relax for even a moment.
At the same time, she silently placed one hand on the fireworks at her waist, ready to send out a distress signal and accurately transmit her location if she sensed anything amiss.
Just then, a crisp "bang bang" sound came from inside the car; someone had knocked on the window.
Guan Ling Shuang's heart tightened suddenly, and she quickly turned her head to look in the direction from which the sound came.
To her astonishment, the stranger who had been sitting calmly in the carriage had somehow gotten off and appeared beside her carriage without her noticing.
Uh... when exactly did he get here?!
Guan Ling Shuang's face showed a look of confusion and bewilderment. Her beautiful eyes stared straight at the man in front of her, and her cherry lips parted slightly as she asked, "Is...is something wrong?"
Her words revealed a hint of doubt and confusion.
Luo Yuchuan stared intently at Guan Ling Shuang with his deep, pool-like eyes, his brows furrowed slightly, and asked in a low voice, "Why have you been following me?"
Guan Ling Shuang was a little confused by the question, and quickly waved her hand to explain, "I followed you? No, I was clearly following my friend's carriage!"
As she spoke, she stretched out her slender hand and pointed in a direction, directly at the black carriage parked in the dead end of the alley, and said in a sweet voice, "Look, it's that one..."
Luo Yuchuan interrupted her expressionlessly, coldly replying, "That's my carriage."
Guan Ling Shuang was taken aback upon hearing this, then her eyes widened, and she immediately retorted, "Oh, it's yours? Impossible! I recognize that carriage clearly; it's exactly the same as my friend's!"
She looked very serious, and her tone was unusually certain. Anyone who didn't know better would think she was telling the truth, making it almost impossible for anyone to doubt her.
Luo Yuchuan felt a surge of irritation, but he still stared intently at Guan Ling Shuang and said in a deep voice, "Not all black carriages belong to your friends. This black carriage is mine."
If you don't believe me, you can get out of the car and check for yourself whether the person you're looking for is inside.
Luo Yuchuan stared intently at Guan Ling Shuang with his sharp eyes and a tense expression. He said in a harsh tone, "Besides, how can you be sure what's true or false if you don't get out of the car and see for yourself?"
Guan Ling Shuang's heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition welled up in her mind.
Faced with the potential situation, she was even less willing to get off the bus, so she quickly waved her hand and said, "Oh, let's not get off."
It's really inconvenient for a man and a woman to be alone together so late at night. If we go any further... I'm afraid... it might not be appropriate."
"If you don't get out of the car, how can you see clearly? In my opinion, it would be better if you went over to check in person to avoid any misunderstandings."
Guan Ling Shuang simply turned her head away and ignored him, pretending to be angry as she muttered, "Hmph, I said I don't need it! Just now in the alley, I only saw that it looked a bit like him from afar, so I followed him."
Now that you're saying no, then I must have mistaken you for someone else!
No matter how Guan Ling Shuang explained, Luo Yu Chuan remained unmoved.
He stood quietly in front of the car, staring intently at Guan Ling Shuang, showing no intention of leaving.
Guan Ling Shuang was dumbfounded. She thought that after saying all that, the man would leave!
Who would have thought that he would be so stubborn, still standing by the carriage and refusing to leave.
Left with no other option, Guan Ling Shuang had to speak again: "Alright, alright, since I've already admitted my mistake, I'll drive away right away, okay?"
After saying that, she got out of the carriage and made a move to drive it away.
Just then, Luo Yuchuan grabbed her arm and tried to pull her off the carriage.
