Chapter 105

Gu Huaian closed his phone and planned to have Cen Assistant find some proposals tomorrow.

Glancing to the side, Shen Tang was sleeping very soundly, her little mouth slightly open, and her calm, rhythmic breathing could be heard clearly, giving people a reassuring feeling.

He didn't know when, but drowsiness came over him, and Gu Huaian also fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, Shen Tang opened her eyes in a daze and found that she was octopus-hugging Gu Huaian tightly, their bodies pressed close together, making the posture a bit too intimate.

Shen Tang could even feel Gu Huaian’s certain body part.

[Oh my god, so big!]

Shen Tang’s old face turned red, and she gently pulled her hand back. Seeing Gu Huaian’s eyelashes flutter, Shen Tang quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

[It would be too awkward to face this situation, better to let Gu Huaian wake up first,] she thought.

But she kept her eyes closed and waited for a long time, yet Gu Huaian showed no sign of getting up.

She lifted her eyelids a little, wanting to see what was going on, and happened to meet Gu Huaian’s eyes directly.

Shen Tang: “......”

"Not pretending to sleep anymore?"

Gu Huaian chuckled softly. He hadn’t fully woken up yet when he heard Tang Tang’s inner voice just now.

He had to say, having this mind reading ability was quite good indeed.

He just didn’t know how long it would last.

He had a hunch that this ability wouldn’t always be there.

Shen Tang blinked her eyes innocently. "What are you talking about? I just woke up."

She stubbornly refused to admit it.

Gu Huaian had just said it casually.

Their postures were too intimate, so he shifted back a little. "Can we get up now?"

Shen Tang hurriedly pulled back her hands and legs.

"Aren't you going to work so late today?" "I took the day off to accompany you."

"Ah? Isn't the company busy?"

"I finished today's work in advance. I’ll accompany you well today."

Shen Tang was delighted and pleasantly surprised to hear this.

"So where shall we go?"

"Do you want to go to the amusement park? Or the beach? Or camping? I heard there might be a meteor shower tonight."

It was obvious Gu Huaian had done some preparation work, which was quite thoughtful.

Shen Tang was very moved. "Let's go camping. I haven't gone before."

In her previous life, she was either working or on the way to work, with no time for camping at all.

She had only seen other people's posts about it online before, and Shen Tang was quite envious.

"Alright, camping first, we’ll do the rest one by one."

A trace of distress rose in Gu Huaian's heart, and he made a decision that he would make up for all the hardships Tang Tang suffered in her previous life.

Shen Tang noticed Gu Huaian's gaze was a little strange. She rubbed her arms and said, "Why are you looking at me like that? It's creepy."

Gu Huaian: "......"

He leaned down and pecked Shen Tang on the lips. "You'd better not talk."

"I don't like listening anyway."

Shen Tang: "......" She suspected that she had corrupted Gu Huaian, why did he talk like this now?

Shen Tang suddenly realized, "You didn't brush your teeth just now."

Gu Huaian: "......"

"Sorry, I was too rushed."

He was too eager to shut her mouth that he forgot they just woke up.

While Shen Tang turned around, Gu Huaian secretly breathed into his hand and smelled it. Fortunately there was no odor.

When Shen Tang came out of the bathroom after washing up, Gu Huaian had already prepared breakfast, keeping it simple since Shen Tang still had to film later.

After eating, the two went to the supermarket to buy camping supplies.

Since it wouldn’t be fun with just the two of them, they simply called the two funny guys Cen Songbai and Fu Junsheng along.

Not far away was a large shopping mall. Shen Tang wore a mask and walked hand in hand with Gu Huaian inside, looking just like an ordinary young couple.

Suddenly, screams erupted nearby as the crowd panicked and shoved each other while running away.

“Murder! Murder!”

"Ahhhhh!" The two looked at each other, squeezed forward a few steps, and saw a man in his thirties holding a blood-stained kitchen knife. He kept hacking at a girl’s neck, his eyes red with madness.

Gu Huaian covered Shen Tang's eyes after she took just one glance. "Don't look."

With his other hand, Gu Huaian quickly dialed the police.

The woman's pupils were dilated. She was beyond saving, with blood spurting everywhere from her carotid artery. The floor was stained red.

The mechanical actions of the man looked terrifying. Everyone around was staying far away, afraid of getting involved.

"What's the situation? He's so ruthless..."

"Looks like a crime of passion..."

"The woman must have cheated, otherwise the man wouldn't be so vicious."

With her eyes closed, Shen Tang's ears became sharper, and she heard the birth of rumors.

She tore Gu Huaian's hand down and glared at the few gossipers. "Do you know that spreading rumors is against the law? Aren't you afraid the dead will come looking for you at night?"

That aunt looked embarrassed. "I didn't say anything. Little girl, your words are too vulgar."

"Far less vulgar than you though," Shen Tang retorted.

She hated people like this the most, who did nothing but spread nonsense with their mouth.

When she worked nights in her past life, she often came home late.

The old lady downstairs then spread rumors that she didn't have a proper job, causing others to look at her strangely. Some men even knocked on her door late at night. It was so annoying.

Gu Huaian's eyes flashed coldly. So things like this had happened.

He felt powerless that even if he wanted to help, he didn’t have the chance.

He wasn't involved in Shen Tang's past, but would guard her future.

Gu Huaian looked at the rumormonger and said, "According to the security law, those who spread rumors may be detained for 5-10 days and fined less than 500 yuan if the circumstances are serious. Auntie, watch what you say."

The aunt paled in fright. "I just said it casually, why make such a big deal..."

"Yes, you just said it casually, but others would believe it. Don't you understand that you shouldn't make judgments without knowing the truth?"

"Whether it’s too much or not, shouldn’t you ask the dead person?"

The aunt took a few steps back. She didn’t dare provoke someone she couldn’t hide from.

Soon, the security guards arrived. The guards in large shopping malls tended to be quite capable and quickly subdued the man.

The volume of discussion from the crowd gradually increased, talking about all sorts of things.

Some were frightened, some gossiped out of curiosity, and some even openly discussed the dead, saying that she was doomed to be killed for dressing so provocatively.

Shen Tang wondered why it was always the victim being criticized when the killer was clearly the man.

What was wrong with this world?
