Chapter 190: Chapter 190: A dog bites when it’s desperate; is this what Miss Zhu has learned during her years as a graduate student?
Before anyone could react, Zhu Jianian suddenly lunged at Ji Wei like a madwoman, grabbing her arm and fiercely sinking her teeth into it.
Gu Moqian immediately responded, raising his hand and forcefully pushing Zhu Jianian aside!
He nervously lifted Ji Wei’s arm, rolling up her long sleeve to reveal a row of bite marks still bleeding profusely. His brows knitted together, his expression full of pain.
Without saying a word, Gu Moqian abruptly raised Ji Wei’s arm to his lips, sucking away the remaining blood from the wound.
Ji Wei stared dazedly at the man’s actions, completely at a loss for words.
When Gu Moqian withdrew his lips, there was still a faint trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. Yet to Ji Wei, this man now radiated an irresistible allure tinged with danger, so sexy it made her breath catch.
Oh my god, in this situation, what on earth was she even thinking?
Ji Wei quickly stopped herself from spiraling further, attempting to pull back her arm. "It’s just a small wound, it’s nothing."
Gu Moqian, however, held onto her hand firmly, not letting go. He turned toward Zhu Jianian, who had been shoved to the ground and was hissing from the friction burn on her knee. "Who gave you the nerve to bite someone?"
Gu Moqian exuded a cold and dangerous aura, making Zhu Jianian tremble all over.
She avoided his gaze, anxiety building in her heart.
"Miss, the ground is cold. Please get up." Nanny Liu quickly stepped forward to help Zhu Jianian.
At this moment, Zhu Ming’an also approached, attempting to mediate: "Mr. Gu, if there’s an issue, you can come at me directly. It has nothing to do with Jianian." noveldrama
"No rush. I’ll settle the score with President Zhu one piece at a time."
Gu Moqian’s tone was indifferent, his dark eyes veiled with frost.
Zhu Jianian, seizing the moment as Zhu Ming’an stood in front of her, bolted toward the bedroom door. Yet Gu Moqian preemptively blocked her path.
"A rabid dog bites when cornered. Is this what Miss Zhu spent years in grad school learning?" Gu Moqian sneered, the corners of his lips curling in mockery.
Zhu Jianian knew that the genteel image she’d painstakingly maintained for over a decade had crumbled in an instant. In Gu Moqian’s eyes, all she saw was deep-rooted disgust and disappointment.
Last night’s incident was the greatest failure of her life.
Zhu Jianian shrank back beside Nanny Liu, not daring to meet Gu Moqian’s gaze.
She felt utterly exposed, like a woman stripped bare, her shame and dignity reduced to nothing but ridicule in others’ eyes.
Gripping Nanny Liu’s arm tightly with one hand, Zhu Jianian couldn’t help but tremble uncontrollably.
Gu Moqian glanced at the pitiful state of Zhu Jianian, his eyes growing colder, his voice icy and merciless: "Miss Zhu, given what happened, you don’t need to come to work at the Gu Family anymore. From now on, don’t appear in front of me again."
With that, he turned decisively, without sparing another glance at the loathsome woman before him.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Jianian panicked, frantically shaking her head: "No, I don’t want to! Why are you doing this to me? Why!"
She screamed hysterically, recklessly throwing herself at Gu Moqian, but Nanny Liu held her back.
"Miss, let’s leave. We have to go..." Nanny Liu said, her voice choking with emotion.
"No, I won’t leave! Moqian, you can’t treat me like this. You’ve always known how I feel about you, haven’t you?"
"Nanny Liu, take her away right now!" Zhu Ming’an commanded, his face dark with fury.
"I won’t leave, I won’t go... Moqian, I’ve made a mistake, I lost control for a moment! But everything I’ve done—all of it—was because I love you!"
Zhu Jianian sobbed and screamed in desperation, her frail body collapsing to the ground in a fit of emotion.
Nanny Liu quickly supported her, and another servant rushed over to help lift Zhu Jianian away.
