Chen Yun hung up the phone and immediately dialed the police.
After learning the exact location, the police quickly reassured Chen Yun not to be afraid, saying they were not far from the hotel and could arrive within fifteen minutes.
"Knock knock knock—"
Five minutes later, someone knocked on the door. Chen Yun nervously peeked through the peephole.
The scumbag had arrived!
Gu Sang immediately pretended to be unconscious and lay down on the bed.
The ancient people watching the livestream were on the edge of their seats.
This was too dangerous!
What if the police were late?
What if that scumbag used force?
The ancient commoners clasped their hands in prayer: "Goddess sister, you must stay safe!"
"Goddess, you'll be alright, because good people are rewarded with good fortune."
"Tsk tsk, daring to use herself as bait. Don't know if they're too naive or too stupid. Men's strength is formidable. Two women daring to scheme against a man, truly overestimating themselves."
"Still claiming they can arrive in the time it takes to burn a stick of incense? What a joke! Can the police really be that fast? Tsk tsk tsk! By the time the police arrive, who knows what state those two will be in!"
"Oh my, that man hit the jackpot. Two women at once!"
In the Plague City.
The Elder Princess stared intently at the screen. A trace of worry could be seen on her otherwise calm face, though she didn't speak.
She and Gu Sang weren't in the same time and space. No matter how much she said, she couldn't help Gu Sang.
Moreover, what Gu Sang needed now was silence! A quiet environment to calmly deal with the situation ahead.
The ancient people from other cities worried for Gu Sang, prayed for her, mocked her, and even took pleasure in her misfortune.
But the common people of Plague City were different. They had all received Gu Sang's kindness, and their current good life was because of her!
When they saw Gu Sang and her friend setting the trap, they couldn't help but worry for her.
The sun beat down on them, making them sweat profusely, but not one person ran to seek shade. They all looked up at the floating screen in the sky, watching the two women.
Goddess, you must not come to harm!
Bless her.
You must bless the Goddess to be safe!
Bless that this evil man be brought to justice!
In the great hall.
Pei Changying glared at the screen with resentful eyes. Although he had been furious with Gu Sang last night, seeing her in danger, he couldn't help but blame her kindness.
Pei Changying said with a grim face: "Gu Sang, you always take on other people's problems as your own."
"This has nothing to do with you, why do you keep putting yourself in danger?"
"I've warned you before, this method is extremely dangerous. How foolish to put your safety in the hands of the police. What if you really lose your virtue, what then!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Seeing that no one was opening the door, the scumbag anxiously pounded on it.
He frowned and said in a low voice: "Chen Yun, what are you doing in there? Why haven't you opened the door yet!"
As soon as he finished speaking.
Chen Yun opened the door slightly, standing behind it to block the scumbag's view.
"First, take out your phone and delete the photos in front of me. Then I'll let you in."
The scumbag's hateful gaze fixed on Chen Yun as he said through gritted teeth: "Well, well, Chen Yun, you've gotten smart now, haven't you! You even dare to threaten me!"
"Fine! I'll delete them!"
Just you wait.
Bitch.
I'll deal with you too in a moment!
The scumbag deleted the backup in front of Chen Yun, then opened his photo album to show her.
"It's all cleared. Can you let me in now?"
Chen Yun was very nervous inside. Time was too tight; she had to stall the scumbag outside.
Chen Yun thought quickly: "Didn't you say you had many backups? You've only deleted the ones on your phone, not the photos on your computer."
Seeing Chen Yun being so unreasonable, the scumbag pushed the door forcefully a few times.
The door was pushed open about a hand's width. His expression dark and suppressed, he said: "Chen Yun, don't be stubborn. My patience has limits."
"If you don't help me deal with Gu Sang now, what if she finds out you drugged her? Do you think Gu Sang won't call the police to arrest you?"
"You're in the same boat as me now. Only by helping me deal with Gu Sang will you avoid trouble."
"Otherwise, I'll leave, and you can face Gu Sang's wrath on your own."
Chen Yun's hand, tightly gripping the doorframe, turned white. Her eyes showed a struggle.
On one hand, she was acting, and on the other, she still wanted to continue stalling the scumbag. But the scumbag was clearly impatient. If he really left, then...
Taking advantage of Chen Yun's moment of panic, the scumbag suddenly pushed her hard.
Bang!
Chen Yun's back hit the wall, the pain bringing tears to her eyes.
The scumbag quickly entered the room and slammed the door shut, locking it.
"Come here!"
"Help me take off Gu Sang's clothes."
The scumbag accurately manipulated Chen Yun, knowing that only by making her help him commit the crime would she not betray him out of regret.
But the friendship between girls, when genuine, can truly overcome all trials!
Seeing Chen Yun hesitating and reluctant to act, the scumbag angrily slapped her. No longer able to contain his desires, he rushed over to forcibly remove Gu Sang's clothes.
Witnessing this scene, the ancient people in the livestream collectively gasped.
The Elder Princess pressed her lips together. Although she could understand Gu Sang's desire to help her friend, one shouldn't be so foolish as to truly sacrifice oneself!
The Elder Princess, who had been silent until now, worriedly spoke up: "Sang Sang, if it comes down to the last moment, protecting yourself is most important."
Pei Changying's face had been on the screen the whole time. The veins on his face were bulging as he angrily scolded, his voice full of jealousy: "Gu Sang! Have you no sense of shame!"
"He's about to take off your clothes!"
"If you let yourself be defiled in front of me, I will... I will make sure you suffer for the rest of your life!"
"That friend over there is your friend, but don't you have friends and family here too?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire court changed color.
What did His Majesty mean by that?!
Was His Majesty planning to punish the Gu family?
Let alone the fact that the Gu family were pillars of the state, Old Master Gu had raised two daughters, one who became an Imperial Consort and the other the Empress.
With the Empress still alive, how could His Majesty punish the Gu family?
Pei Changying also realized he had misspoken, so he pressed his lips together and said no more. But his eyes remained fixed on the scumbag.
As if to say, dare to touch my woman, and I'll flay you alive!
Under the watchful eyes of everyone present, the scoundrel's gaze fell upon Gu Sang, who lay unconscious on the bed, and his eyes gleamed with a predatory light.
In his eyes, he saw not just beauty, but opportunity and money!
Now he was waiting to seize the fruits of victory that he believed belonged to him.
Chen Yun's heart sank suddenly, and she anxiously clenched her fists!
"Sang Sang!"
"I beg you, please don't hurt her, okay? Waa waa waa!" Chen Yun cried out, pretending to be scared, while simultaneously trying to grab hold of the scoundrel to buy some time.
But she was a step too late.
The scoundrel had already lunged towards Gu Sang.
At this critical moment.
Suddenly—
Gu Sang's eyes snapped open.
At the same time, her right foot shot up, forcefully and viciously kicking upwards!
