His sharp gaze was directed at the exit but there was no one there. He then looked out of the window, yet Gu Qingqing's shadow was nowhere in sight.

Chen Wenjie was not happy that her prey had escaped from her. Although Leng Sicheng was no stranger to rumors and he had crossed paths with countless women, she was confident that she could use her beautiful appearance and gentleness to win him over. Seeing that Leng Sicheng ran out of the hall, Chen Wenjie went after him as well.

"CEO Leng… It's raining outside. And it's getting kind of late as well. Shall we…"

To her surprise, Leng Sicheng was still ignoring her. He then turned around and walked toward the elevator. At the same time, he took out his cellphone and called Secretary Chen.

"You! Quickly! Go to the parking lot! I want to use my car in three minutes!"

After that, Leng Sicheng pressed on the button beside the elevator to go to the lower floor. Chen Wenjie thought that Leng Sicheng was not used to making love at the hotel and he wanted to go home to have fun with her. Who would have thought that Leng Sicheng would enter the elevator alone and leave her outside?

When he arrived at the parking lot, Leng Sicheng took out his cellphone and attempted to call Gu Qingqing. Unfortunately, the reply that he got was 'The person that you are calling is unavailable. Please try again later'.

Leng Sicheng's face darkened and he narrowed his eyes. He then hopped into the car.

"CEO Leng, where do you want to go?" asked Secretary Chen.

"Just go around this area."

She should not have gone far since she left the place not too long ago. The rain was getting heavier and heavier and there were different kinds of cars parking in front of the hotel. Leng Sicheng asked his secretary to drive slower because he did not want to miss Gu Qingqing. He had the window rolled down to check his surroundings. A lot of people were gathering at the exit because of the heavy rain.

Leng Sicheng used his finger to tap on the window and checked on every single person that his car passed by. Most of them were drivers of the guests of his event. The heavy downpour had made them decide that they would stay a little longer.

Secretary Chen then exited the hotel. There were other luxurious hotels nearby as well. Leng Sicheng could see that many people were standing under the roof, waiting for the rain to stop. Unfortunately, none of them was Gu Qingqing.

The car continued to move forward. Before they reached the traffic light, Leng Sicheng saw a woman inside a twenty-four-hour pharmacy. It was Gu Qingqing!

Why did she go to the pharmacy?

When he thought about the way she walked just now, he was worried that he might have hurt her private part. Recently, the way he made love to her was extremely rough. Especially tonight, he was venting his anger upon her.

When he got down the car, he heard something that left him in shock.

"Do you want the pill that can last for twenty-four hours or seventy-two hours?"

"I want the one that can last for twenty-four hours. A bottle of it please," Gu Qingqing said hoarsely.

It seemed like she was used to buying this kind of pill.

"Please hand me a glass of warm water."

In the car, Leng Sicheng could see Gu Qingqing swallow a pill without any hesitation when she opened the bottle.

"CEO Leng, the light's green. May I ask…"

Immediately, Leng Sicheng got down from the car and walked towards Gu Qingqing. Right after Gu Qingqing swallowed the pill, she was greeted with a pair of ice-cold eyes. Leng Sicheng wanted to grab her hand and she quickly stepped back to get away from him.

"Why are you running away from me?"

His tall figure was like a mountain and it blocked all the light that came from behind him. He then extended his arm and wanted to take away the bottle of pills in her hand.

"The effect of this pill can last for twenty-four hours, right?"

"What… What do you mean by that?"

After that Leng Sicheng dragged Gu Qingqing to the car.

He then shouted at his secretary.

"Get lost now!"

Secretary Chen was so afraid that he got out of the car without hesitation. 

"Since you have taken the pill, let's not waste its effects. I can sleep with you many times in twenty-four hours! And I don't have to worry about getting you pregnant. Isn't that right? My dear wife." said the man while loosening the towel around his waist.

Some time had passed and the car finally stopped moving. Gu Qingqing looked really pale.

"Send her back first!" said Leng Sicheng to his secretary that stood not too far away from the car.

"Yes sir!"

The car then drove past the traffic light. It was still raining. Leng Sicheng was standing under the rain and watched Gu Qingqing leave his sight. And his eyes became teary after that.
