《Sweetness Drowning: Callous Boss and Awkward Wife》C34. Break into the Empty House
Advertisement
Having waited long enough, Yu Fei gradually lost her patience. Feeling disturbed, she held her phone firmly.
“Chen?”She asked carefully. The man at the other end of the call stopped his breath for a second. Yu Fei had her heart in her mouth. She held her breath and waited for him to speak.
Before Ko Chen spoke, Gu Yi went from the rear and asked out of concern: “Who’s that?”
Ko Chen clearly heard Gu Yi’s voice. His breath became heavier. Suddenly, he felt everything went black. He was so flustered and rattled that he hung up. He pulled up and laid on the steering wheel to take a rest.
Yu Fei didn’t expect the call was hung off. Hearing the busy signal, she felt hurt. The phone dropped from her hand.
“Crack.” The screen went black.
Seeing Yu Fei acted like this, Gu Yi knew whose call it was. He held her teetering body, brought her to the couch and got her a cup of hot water.
Yu Fei sat there like a doll. She did what Gu Yi asked to do without saying a word.
Gu Yi knew exactly that if she didn’t utter a word, she would feel even sadder.
He crouched down in front of Yu Fei, raised his head and made faces at her.
This worked. Yu Fei looked at him for a few seconds and then burst into laughter.
Looking at her smiling face, Gu Yi felt assured a little bit. But just a little bit. He stopped making faces and asked seriously: “He called, right?”
Yu Fei’s smile faded. She avoided his eyes unnaturally and held her cup firmer involuntarily.
Gu Yi noticed her petty action. He felt unhappy but didn’t express it on his face. He pulled Yu Fei up from the couch and took her to the door.

Yu Fei was puzzled by his sudden act. She followed him stumblingly. She asked until the door closed behind them: “Where are we going?”
Gu Yi put his index finger in front of his mouth mysteriously. He clapped his breast and promised: “Just follow me.”
Yu Fei trusted him. She didn’t think he would hurt her, so she asked no more. But she was still curious about what he was going to do. She started to forget the bad feeling caused by Ko Chen.
Yu Fei was still bewildered when she got into the car. So she didn’t dodge when Gu Yi got close to fasten her seat belt.
When Gu Yi leaned to her, he felt restless because he smelt the perfume of Yu Fei.
He straightened up placidly and made up his mind. He must take Yu Fei away from Ko Chen by means fair or foul.
He drove his car slowly and left the garage. A few minutes later, Ko Chen and Duan Tsingfeng arrived at Gu Yi’s.
Ko Chen felt unwell, but he worried about Yu Fei. He didn’t want her to live in Gu Yi’s house like this. So he called Duan Tsingfeng to come over with him. If anything happened with his body, Duan Tsingfeng could give a hand.
They rang the doorbell several times, but no one answered. It was quiet inside.
Ko Chen’s face was as dark as ink. He knocked at the door impatiently as if he were going to break the door.
Duan Tsingfeng stood aside and watched, feeling his scalp tingled.
Ko Chen knocked for a while but still received no answer. He went angry and was about to kick the door.
Now Duan Tsingfeng couldn’t stand quiet there and did nothing anymore. He hurried up to grab Ko Chen’s hand and said: “Come on. Stop doing that. Otherwise the guards may think we try to rob. Mr. Ko, if you don’t feel embarrassed, I do.”

Ko Chen was stopped by Duan Tsingfeng. But his face was still dark. He took out his phone and called Yu Fei, but an auto female voice from the microphone made him even madder.
With blue veins standing out on his temples, Ko Chen looked sinister and ruthless. Gu Yi was such a yellow dog!
Duan Tsingfeng didn’t think there was anyone inside the house because they had waited for so long. He guessed: “Did they go out?”
Yu Fei and Gu Yi went out together? Since when they became so close? Did they fall in love together again?
...
Ko Chen didn’t want to keep thinking that. He closed his eyes tightly and exhaled. After that, his disordered mind finally calmed down. Now he realized how insane he was. He wouldn’t do those crazy things when he was under normal condition.
Duan Tsingfeng relaxed a little bit when he saw Ko Chen calmed down. He worried that Ko Chen would suffer from the disease again because he was too agitated. His body got worse and worse. The disease tortured his body a lot.
Ko Chen lowered his head. He seemed lonely and sad.
Duan Tsingfeng couldn’t bear seeing him like this. He wondered how to comfort him.
Ko Chen quickly compensate for his emotional problem. He raised his head with a poker face just like the man he used to be, a callous boss.
Seeing this, Duan Tsingfeng raised the corners of his mouth. That was him, Ko Chen, chairman of Ko Company. How come he could not manage his emotions?
“Uncle Zhang. Where did Gu Yi take Fei to?” There was nobody in the house. Ko Chen made the call and then knew that the two left the house a few minutes before he arrived.
“Mr. Ko, do you need their position?”
Ko Chen was silent for two seconds with light in his eyes. He tapped the ground with his leather shoes and then gave up.
“Never mind. Ask them to keep Fei safe. Don’t let anything happen to her.”
Duan Tsingfeng was surprised by what he said. Ko Chen didn’t say anything to him and went towards the elevator. Duan Tsingfeng followed up and asked: “That’s it? Go back?”
Even Duan Tsingfeng worried about Yu Fei because she was with Gu Yi. Although he didn’t know too much about him, he heard some anecdotes about him from Uncle Zhang. Gu Yi was not as simple as he looked like.
“Yu Fei is so naïve. What if she is deceived?” Duan Tsingfeng followed Ko Chen and got into the elevator. He was curious about Ko Chen’s thoughts. Ko Chen loved Yu Fei so much. He should be more worried about her.
Ko Chen leaned back against the wall. He closed his eyes, looking extremely tired and didn’t want to utter a word.
Duan Tsingfeng stopped asking because he didn’t want to force him.
When the number became smaller and smaller and they were about to arrive at the first floor, Ko Chen spoke.
“I won’t let her be in danger. Even if I can’t company her, I will keep her safe and sound.”
Hearing this, Duan Tsingfeng looked at Ko Chen. There was firm light in his eyes.
