Chapter 83
Zhou Xiao didn’t answer.
She dared not answer, because she knew Gu Chen was telling the truth, so she didn’t dare deceive herself.
But Gu Chen still released a large amount of pheromones, suppressing her until she could barely breathe, forcing her to submit.
When her body trembled uncontrollably, she finally figured it out, and with weak hands, she difficultly wrapped her arms around Gu Chen’s neck.
Gu Chen laughed, “What? Were you seduced by the pheromones, or are you willing?”
Alphas are the absolute controllers of this world. Even if everyone is equal, even if AOs are equal, they can still use pheromones to arouse all of an Omega’s desires, making the Omega absolutely submissive to them.
At this moment, Gu Chen was very happy.
Tears fell drop by drop from Zhou Xiao’s eyes, but she smiled and said, “Mr. Gu, my glands are so uncomfortable, can you retract your pheromones?”
Gu Chen had forced countless Omegas in his life, accustomed to seeing Omegas submit to him without resistance.
This moment was no different, especially since Zhou Xiao had An Qiang’s mark; discomfort was inevitable.
Therefore, he smiled and asked, “Not resisting anymore?”
Zhou Xiao didn’t speak, only reaching out with difficulty to pull open her chest a little.
Gu Chen’s eyes lit up, and he smiled, retracting his pheromones and releasing Zhou Xiao.
He sat back in his seat, spreading his legs like an emperor, and smiled, “Come here.”
Zhou Xiao felt extremely humiliated, but she was completely unable to resist, so she could only endure the humiliation. She stumbled, step by step, to Gu Chen’s side, slowly kneeling before him, but didn’t move any further.
Just as Gu Chen was about to impatiently press her head down, she suddenly reached out to hold Gu Chen’s legs, using her beauty and weakness to plead, “Mr. Gu, can we go to the room?”
After speaking, she glanced at the room where An Qiang was resting.
Gu Chen instantly understood her meaning and smiled, “Okay.”
After speaking, Gu Chen stood up first, carrying Zhou Xiao towards his room, but before entering, Zhou Xiao said again, “Mr. Gu, can you wait a little longer? I have something to say to him. After I finish, I’ll break off my relationship with him, remove the mark, and then…”
Zhou Xiao didn’t finish, but Gu Chen understood her meaning.
He had carefully planned for so long, he could afford to wait a little longer. So he put Zhou Xiao down, ignoring the permanent mark of An Qiang on her body, bit fiercely into Zhou Xiao’s gland, and then smiled viciously, “Go ahead.”
After speaking, Gu Chen entered the room.
But Zhou Xiao didn’t go to find An Qiang. Instead, enduring the discomfort, weakness, and dizziness, she stumbled out of Gu’s house.
The secondary mark given by Gu Chen had a great impact on Zhou Xiao. She immediately called Tang Yan, telling her what had happened today.
She also told Tang Yan that she had made a recording, and if anything happened to her, Tang Yan must find the recording pen.
Tang Yan immediately set off from the company to find her, but as soon as she came downstairs, she heard a loud crash, and Zhou Xiao’s voice was gone.
Tang Yan was scared to tears, but still calmly called the police and drove to find Zhou Xiao.
But when she arrived, Zhou Xiao had already been put into an ambulance, and the police were processing the scene of the car accident.
Looking at Zhou Xiao’s corpse, her eyes were full of hatred. She didn’t immerse herself in sadness but immediately looked for the recording pen after confirming Zhou Xiao’s death.
But she found nothing.
An Qiang hypocritically acted as the perfect husband, perfectly making everyone believe that this was just an accidental car accident, and that Zhou Xiao’s death had nothing to do with An Qiang. Because he was supposedly so heartbroken, he received sympathy and support.
Tang Yan had no chance to expose this matter, nor could she find any evidence.
She had no choice but to go to Zhou’s parents, who were equally heartbroken.
She told the elder Zhou couple about An Qiang’s true nature and the true cause of Zhou Xiao’s death.
The elder Zhou couple were furious and immediately sent people to investigate An Qiang and collect evidence of the transaction between An Qiang and Gu Chen.
Tang Yan thought that as long as the elder Zhou couple acted, they could clear Zhou Xiao’s name and avenge her.
But she didn’t expect that not long after, the elder Zhou couple died in a car accident.
And all of Zhou’s property fell into An Qiang’s hands.
At that moment, Tang Yan despaired.
An Omega who had been protected and had a smooth life since she started school, suddenly understood what it meant to be at the end of her rope.
Without Zhou Xiao, other companies didn’t want her, and An Qiang, having found the recording of Zhou Xiao calling her, began searching for her.
She knew that once she was found by An Qiang, she would either be forced to become An Qiang’s person, never betraying him, or become a dead person.
So, she kept hiding.
She wanted to hide while looking for evidence to bring down An Qiang, but when she was hiding, she realized that finding evidence was like a fool’s dream.
Until she met Lu Heng.
When Lu Heng came to her house to find her, she hadn’t gone far, but had been hiding nearby and spying.
As soon as Lu Heng left, she returned. Looking at the messages and information, she was moved.
But she hesitated; she really wanted to bring down An Qiang, but she was also afraid that this was a trap set by An Qiang.
But before she could hesitate for long, she saw Lu Heng’s “sincerity.”
At 3 am, Lu Heng’s sincerity was undeniable, so she came early, eager to see An Le.
After listening to Tang Yan’s words, An Le didn’t speak, but his eyes were red.
Lu Heng grabbed his hand, “Don’t be sad, it’s over. Mom certainly wouldn’t want you to dwell on this pain.”
An Le nodded, then whispered, “Aunt Tang, where do you think Mom’s recording pen is?”
“I don’t know.”
Tang Yan, like An Le, couldn’t wipe away the tears from her eyes. She said, “When your mother had the car accident, the call was automatically cut off. I didn’t hear the sound of the scene, I don’t know who took it.”
Lu Heng: “Then that’s a problem.”
An Le lowered his head, looking at Lu Heng’s face, and whispered, “Sir, what do you mean?”
Lu Heng didn’t answer immediately, but thought for a moment before saying, “If this recording pen fell into An Qiang’s hands, it should be kept as leverage to threaten Gu Chen.”
“But if it fell into Gu Chen’s hands, it would definitely be destroyed.”
An Qiang’s status was lower than Gu Chen’s. He wanted to rise through Gu Chen, constantly flattering and fawning, even willing to give away his wife.
Therefore, he couldn’t easily discard Gu Chen’s leverage.
But Gu Chen was different. His status was already very high; everyone had to flatter him.
And the higher his status, the less he could allow anyone to leave him with leverage. So, regardless of whether the impact was large or small, as long as he discovered it, he would destroy it.
After hearing Lu Heng’s words, An Le’s eyes widened, “Then, is it all over?”
“Not necessarily.”
Lu Heng shook his head: “We can only pray that the recording was taken by An Qiang. However, even if the recording pen was taken by Gu Chen, it doesn’t matter; An Qiang must have already set a trap for Gu Chen.”
Now, just keep an eye on An Qiang.
After Lu Heng finished speaking, he sent a message to someone on his phone, then said to An Le, “Le Le, don’t worry, it will be resolved soon.”
An Le nodded obediently, “Mm.”
Tang Yan knew how An Qiang had treated An Le over the years, and especially knowing that An Qiang also wanted to sell An Le to Gu Chen, she wanted to kill An Qiang.
But she was just a powerless Omega, and couldn’t do anything.
Now, with Lu Heng, she saw hope.
However, even if they knew the truth from years ago, without evidence, they were still helpless against those people.
An Le stayed by Lu Heng’s side, while Tang Yan was protected by people arranged by Lu Heng.
An Le learned the truth of that year, but couldn’t be happy; his mood was even heavier.
After thinking for a long time, An Le felt that he couldn’t sit idly by.
He wanted to go back and ask Luo Ping what the password to An Qiang’s study was.
But Lu Heng’s wound hadn’t healed yet, and he couldn’t leave Lu Heng alone in the hospital.
Moreover, Lu Heng wasn’t comfortable leaving him alone at home.
As long as An Qiang was still at home, An Le was not safe.
Moreover, Gu Chen had been tricked, and was certainly even more furious now. If he met An Le, he would definitely not treat An Le as gently as before.
Lu Heng stayed in the hospital for half a month before being discharged.
As Lu Heng had imagined, as soon as their actions that night were discovered, Gu Chen immediately tried to stop Lu Heng from collecting evidence.
Moreover, he tried to hide his crimes even more deeply.
Lu Heng couldn’t find anything, and felt anxious.
An Le hugged his arm and comforted him, “Sir, there’s no rush. Don’t be unhappy, it’s not good for your wound recovery.”
Lu Heng smiled, “Mm, I’ll listen to Le Le.”
An Le nodded. Before, he was anxious because Xiao Xiao was in Gu Qian’s hands. Later, Xiao Xiao was rescued by Li Jie, so he wasn’t anxious anymore.
Now, he looked at the scenery outside the car window and whispered, “Sir, are we going home now, or to the An family?”
After they got married, they rarely went back to their own home, mostly staying at the An family.
They had endured humiliation and lived in the An family for so long, yet still…
“Of course, we’re going to the An family.”
Lu Heng smiled, “Not only are we going to the An family, but we’re also going to give them a big gift.”
An Le was curious about the gift, and Lu Heng whispered it in his ear.
An Le’s eyes were filled with doubt, “Sir, is this… possible?”
“Of course it’s possible.”
Lu Heng stroked An Le’s head and smiled, “Le Le, don’t be too soft-hearted, otherwise, the world will have no place for you.”
An Le finally nodded and didn’t speak again.
He thought about Lu Heng’s plan, but soon received a call from an unknown number.
He froze for a moment, thinking it was Gu Chen, but after answering, he found that the person on the other end wasn’t Gu Chen, but Xiao Xiao.
“Xiao Xiao.”
An Le was happy and excitedly asked, “How are you doing recently? Have you rested well? Did Gu Qian find you again?”
Xiao Xiao paused, then glanced at the person beside her before saying, “I’m fine, he didn’t find me. How are you? I heard you found your mother’s secretary, so did you find the evidence?”
