Contract Marriage: Love Has Finally Arrived

Chapter 221: Chapter 221 Have you seen what it looks like?

Before he had a chance to dodge, the golden dagger struck him right between his eyebrows, and the next second, the man collapsed to the ground.

The icy gaze once again returned to the leader of the men, and Qin Sijue again intensified the pressure under his foot, followed by the sound of bones shattering with a ‘crack’ echo.

“Ah!”

The man let out a heart-wrenching scream, his face as pale as death, with cold sweat constantly seeping from his forehead; his entire appearance was somewhat gruesome to behold!

The scream fully awakened Gu Qiangwei from her stupor. She sat up, rubbed the back of her head that had taken a heavy hit, and felt somewhat groggy at the moment.

Following the scream, she furrowed her brows and slowly turned her head, only then clearly seeing Qin Sijue standing there.

And beneath his foot, there was a man being stepped on.

What had happened?

She looked around and felt her entire body floating and drifting, which was when she realized she must be on a boat.

She remembered she was supposed to return to Jueyuan, so how did she end up on a boat?

“Qin Sijue.”

She stood up, looked at Qin Sijue, who was handling the situation, and started speaking in a daze.

Hearing her voice, Qin Sijue turned his head and finally released the man under his foot, who was now half-paralyzed.

Approaching her, he asked, “Are you hurt?”

Looking at her, a trace of concern flickered through his narrow eyes, a remnant of the horror he had felt.

Gu Qiangwei was still somewhat confused, her brow lightly furrowed, not yet aware of what had actually happened.

“How did we end up here?”

Glimpsing at her, Qin Sijue instantly gave her a look as if he was staring at an idiot.

“You don’t know how you got here?”

Gu Qiangwei was stunned, her brows furrowing as she tried to recall the situation.

“I remember I just finished speaking with you on the phone and was about to get into the car, and then… suddenly, someone hit me from behind with something… After that, I don’t remember anything at all,” she said, and couldn’t help but rub the back of her head that still felt sore.

Noticing her action, Qin Sijue was imperious as ever, taking a step forward and pulling her into his embrace, his large hand caressing the spot she was rubbing.

Such a big lump.

“Quit your job!”

He suddenly blurted out the command.

Gu Qiangwei, puzzled, asked, “Why?”

“Just quit if I tell you to quit. Why so much nonsense!”

“I won’t!”

“Do you even know you were almost sold!?” Recalling the scene he had burst in on, the rage in his heart hadn’t subsided yet. He wished he could dismember that man and throw him into the sea to feed the sharks!

Gu Qiangwei was taken aback, her eyes widening in shock as she looked at the man before her. “Really?”

“What do you think?”

She was stunned and said nothing.

“Did you get a clear look at who attacked you?” His expression suddenly turned very serious, and deep down, he might have already guessed the culprit.

Gu Qiangwei raised her eyes again, glanced at him, and then looked down again.

At that time, she had wanted to see the attacker’s face as well, but her consciousness had faded before she could even turn around.

She shook her head, “I didn’t see.”

In her mind, the images of Mu Jiaqi and Nangong Feifei suddenly flashed.

Because she had had a big confrontation with them just that evening.

Besides them, she seemed to have no other enemies.

Looking at the man before her, without any evidence, she dared not confirm the true instigator. Moreover, if she gave away the answer, Qin Sijue would probably take matters into his own hands.

With that thought, a new worry emerged in her heart, and she refrained from speaking further.

“Let’s go home.”

With that, she headed straight toward the exit of the boat cabin.
