The Vicious Female Support Wants to Quit

Chapter 23: The gentler he was, the more afraid she was

      The gentler he was, the more afraid she was

At the entrance of her university, Gu Ningyou stood alone under the tree, absent-mindedly playing with her mobile phone.  

If she hadn’t received the messages wishing her a happy birthday from her brother and Fu Yifei on WeChat, she would have forgotten that today was her birthday. She had planned to go home directly, but thinking that Pei Siyuan had said he would pick her up today when they parted last time, she decided to wait for him here for a while.  

She hoped Xie Yingzhou has conveyed her meaning to Pei Siyuan at this time. She didn’t like the feeling of being unable to control herself when she was with Pei Siyuan. It was no exaggeration to say that she didn’t even want to have dinner with him before parting ways.  

When Pei Siyuan’s car appeared in her sight, Gu Ningyou was a little disappointed. She suppressed the annoyed feeling in her heart. Pei Siyuan stopped in front of her, and she put on a look as if nothing had happened, opened the door and sat in.  

Gu Ningyou noticed that his clothes today were different from those in the past. He was busy with work on weekdays, wearing either a blazer or a formal suit all day long, but today he had changed into a casual outfit and the zipper of his jacket was not pulled up. To be honest, this kind of dressing made him look amiable, and he looked completely different from usual, and even his cold and hard facial lines were softened a lot because of this.   

It was rare to see him so approachable, Gu Ningyou couldn’t resist looking at him more. Noticing her silent gaze, Pei Siyuan asked, “What?”  

Finding herself caught peeking, Gu Ningyou withdrew her gaze slightly sheepishly, “Nothing.”  

Just now, an absurd thought flashed through her mind. She felt that Pei Siyuan was here to accompany her for her birthday, that was why he specially went home and changed clothes before coming to pick her up. Then, she felt that she was overthinking, Pei Siyuan was tired of even spending time with her, so how could he possibly spend his time on such a thing?   

She looked out the window and found that Pei Siyuan was driving neither the way to her house nor the way back to his own home. After hesitating, she still asked, “Yuan, where are we going?”  

“Hotel .”  

Hearing Pei Siyuan’s answer, Gu Ningyou almost couldn’t catch her breath. He planned to spend her birthday with her like this? Go directly to the hotel to get a room?

 

Contrary to what she expected, Pei Siyuan didn’t take her directly to the hotel after he parked the car, but took her to the restaurant next to it and entered the couple’s private room that he had booked in the morning.  

The couple’s private room in front of her was obviously set up early in the morning. There were beautiful flowers on the wall, and a soothing piano music was playing on the speakers. The scene in front of her looked romantic and warm. If Pei Siyuan hadn’t brought her, she suspected that she had strayed into someone’s well-prepared marriage proposal venue.  

She seemed to have blamed Pei Siyuan wrongly. Maybe he simply wanted to have a meal with her, and then go to the hotel and simply sleep together?  

Yes, this made more sense. Pei Siyuan was not the kind of person who was interested in her body.  

Realizing this, the tension in Gu Ningyou’s heart dissipated a lot, replaced by a trace of guilt caused by her malicious speculation about Pei Siyuan, but that faint sense of guilt was soon washed away by the waiter who opened the door and came in. Plates of dishes with excellent appearance were placed on the table in front of her. She was already a little hungry, and now she felt that the smell of these dishes was hooking her like a small hook. It made her feel hungrier and wanted to have a good meal regardless of dining etiquette.  

Pei Siyuan has always treated her coldly and alienated, but today his voice was unbelievably soft and gentle: “Do you like it?”  

Gu Ningyou nodded repeatedly: “I like it.”  

After saying that, her action of picking up the dishes gave a pause.  

She found that all the dishes on this table were actually her favorites, so it was obvious that someone knew her preferences in advance and prepared them for her. Could it be a coincidence?   

Pei Siyuan didn’t seem to notice her abnormality at all, and once again said in a warm voice: “Eat more if you like it.”  

Hearing Pei Siyuan’s words, Gu Ningyou instantly lost the mood to eat. She chewed the food in her mouth but she found it hard to swallow. She suddenly felt that all this was very strange, a romantic place, sumptuous dinner, gentle boyfriend, under normal circumstances, this was of course the ideal scene for a birthday, but it was her birthday and the person accompanying her today was Pei Siyuan—when has he ever been so patient and gentle with her?  

She has suffered too many losses from Pei Siyuan, and to be honest, the gentle Pei Siyuan scared her more than the indifferent him. After each tenderness, he ushered in violent storms. In her previous life, it was revenge on her family, in this life, it was the tossing and turning in bed, and either way, it undoubtedly made her life miserable.  

But she didn’t seem to have done anything to upset him today?  

At this moment, the waiter pushed the door and came in and served the last dish of the evening, accompanied by a delicately packaged box. Gu Ningyou looked at Pei Siyuan with astonishment as he opened the box and took out the content, which was a silver-white necklace with a bright red gemstone hanging at the bottom. The moment the cold bead chain was attached to her neck, she felt goosebumps all over her body, and the coolness on her neck ran down her skin and spread into her body, so cold that it made her feel that the blood flow in her body had slowed down.  

“So beautiful.” Pei Siyuan cupped her face after putting the necklace on her and gently pressed a kiss on her forehead, “Ning Ning, happy birthday.”  

… It’s over.  

The uneasy feeling in Gu Ningyou’s heart reached its peak when she heard his address to her. Pei Siyuan has never addressed her intimately, and usually only called her by her first and last name, but this address she had heard in her previous life –  

On the day they went to get their marriage certificates.   

At that time, he said, “Ning Ning, I have always had you in my heart, and I don’t want to be separated from you for the rest of my life,” but not long after he said this, he personally designed her brother to have a car accident.  

What about today? What does he want to do?  

Gu Ningyou smiled dryly: “Yuan, thank you.”  

Pei Siyuan’s voice was still gentle: “Are you happy?”  

Whether he wanted to kill or cut, could he be more straightforward? The more he was like this, the more afraid she was in her heart.  

“Happy…”  

“I’m asking about today.” Pei Siyuan kept a stooped posture and stared into her eyes from a close distance. It was obvious that his eyes were very gentle, but Gu Ningyou inexplicably saw a bit of cruelty in those eyes, “Did you have a good time during the day today?”   

Why did he mention the day for no reason?  

Gu Ningyou almost immediately thought of Xie Yingzhou – he must have called Pei Siyuan, what did he say to Pei Siyuan?  

She asked him to tell Pei Siyuan that she didn’t like him anymore, what the fuck did he say?  

She was definitely fooled by that unreliable guy!  

“I… I was in class in the morning, and in the afternoon I went to the school’s broadcasting club for an interview…” Gu Ningyou was alarmed, she knew that she must not lie at this time, “After the interview, I went to the broadcasting station to read a manuscript for a while, and then… Then I went to the university gate to wait for you.”  

“Oh?” Pei Siyuan gently rubbed her cheek with his fingertips, and his voice was as soft as a whisper, “That’s all?  

He was so gentle, but Gu Ningyou nervously bit her tongue: “That’s all.”   

“But how did I hear the person you were with say that you personally admitted that you like him and have had a crush on him for a long time?”   

Gu Ningyou finally understood where the problem was.  

How could Xie Yingzhou talk nonsense like this? The words that should be said were not said, but what should not be said were all said, he clearly knew that those words were not sincere!  

Gu Ningyou didn’t think Pei Siyuan was jealous, but he must be angry for some unknown reason—  

She didn’t want to think about the reason behind it. In short, it was definitely something she couldn’t understand. She knew long ago that Pei Siyuan was an out-and-out lunatic, and he couldn’t be judged by normal people’s eyes. And asking her to understand what such a madman was thinking was completely whimsical.  

She calculated in her mind the probability of her escaping from him and grab the door, and finally found that the probability was almost zero, so she could only continue to rack her brains to make up excuses: “That’s not my true words, I was…”  

“Not your true words? It turns out that you can say something like this to someone casually?” Pei Siyuan interrupted her with a bit of doubt in his eyes, “So last time you told me that you like me, that was also a lie?”  

Gu Ningyou couldn’t answer him, because after he said these words, he took her to the sofa, and he blindfolded her again like last time, but this second time he used the silk scarf that the restaurant prepared for them to wipe after the meal. The fabric covered her eyes, causing her world to plunge into darkness in an instant.  

She felt that she had become his prey, and was led by him step by step into the trap he had prepared, without the slightest possibility of escape.  

“Or is it that you are actually a liar with a different heart and cannot tell a word of truth?  

As he said, he took off her jacket, slipped his hand into the bottom of her clothes, feeling his way up until he unbuttoned her bra and took her soft breasts into his hand.  

At this moment, the hungry predator finally revealed his original face, extending his sharp claws and teeth to his captured prey.
