Chapter 138: Gu Chu Said She was Afraid
Lin Yin pinched the small red flower and looked at it carefully. Although she didn’t sense anything odd, she said carefully, “Did you read the thread that I forwarded to you that day?”
“What thread?”
“I forwarded it to you that night when I asked if you were coming back.”
Gu Chu remembered, but she didn’t have time to read it. “I didn’t open it. What is it?”
Lin Yin lowered her voice and said, “It’s about a serial killer who hasn’t been caught yet. The netizens named him the Little Red Flower Killer!”
“Fortunately, I didn’t open it.” Although Gu Chu was brave, she was a bit scared of these things. On the contrary, Lin Yin looked timid, but she was quite interested in these things.
“This isn’t a story. It happened in real life!” Lin Yin said seriously.
However, Gu Chu did not believe her. “With the current technology, how could we not catch a serial killer?”
“This serial killer committed the crime 20 years ago. At that time, the technology was not advanced. Moreover, he was good at it so he never got caught.”
Lin Yin picked up the red flower again and said mysteriously, “This killer would give the victim three small red flowers before committing the crime. They looked similar to this flower, so they called him the Little Red Flower Killer.”
Gu Chu was a little scared by her words. She snatched the red flower and threw it into the trash can. She pretended to be very relaxed and said, “Let’s talk about it when I get the other two.”
When she returned to Jinyuan Residences, she found that Feng Jia was not there, so she sent a Wechat message to ask where he was.
After a while, he answered her, “I’m meeting a client.”
Gu Chu sighed. The CEO was really busy.
She put away the condoms and went to the study to take care of some work. Then, she thought of the so-called “Little Red Flower Killer” and searched for it.
Although the case was more than twenty years old, people were still talking about it. Just as she was engrossed in reading them, she was suddenly patted on the shoulder.
She was so scared that all the hair on her body stood up. She turned around abruptly and realized it was the housekeeper.
The housekeeper said apologetically, “Did I scare you? I knocked on the door but no one answered. I thought no one was there. I came in to clean the room and saw you, so I wanted to ask you what you’d like to eat tonight? Also, will Mr. Feng be back for dinner tonight?”
Gu Chu quickly closed the post and said, “Anything is fine. You’re a good cook. We’ll eat whatever you cook.”
She was still restless by the time she went to bed. She glued herself to Feng Jia.
He felt that something was wrong and grabbed her shoulder and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Gu Chu whispered, “I just saw a post about a homicidal maniac. I’m a little scared.”
Feng Jia frowned. “If you’re scared, why did your read it?”
“I’m just curious,” Gu Chu replied.
Feng Jia shook his head silently and let her hug him.
Perhaps because of that, Gu Chu had nightmares at night.
She dreamed of the woman again.
The woman she had dreamed of when she was kidnapped in Yangcheng City and when she was sleeping in the beauty salon.
She looked at her with a gentle expression and called her name, “ChuChu, Chu Chu, listen, we will definitely come back to pick you up.”
Gu Chu felt that she was being hugged by the woman, but at such a close distance, she still couldn’t see her face clearly.
The next morning, she didn’t look very well. She was putting on makeup while yawning. Feng Jia thought that she was scared by the posts online, he frowned and said, “Don’t read about those things next time. After breakfast, I’ll send you to the office.”
To the office?
Gu Chu turned and looked at him pitifully. “I’m still scared. Why don’t you bring me to your office? I’ll be your secretary?”
Feng Jia put on a watch, “Don’t you have a meeting?”
Gu Chu answered enthusiastically, “It’s just a regular meeting. It’s not very important. I can bring my computer to work at your place.”
Feng Jia looked at her and nodded.
Gu Chu continued to put on her makeup. Of course, it was not because she was afraid. It was Monday, so her father would definitely be there and she did not want to face him for the time being.
Although he cared about her more than her mother, it was obvious that he still cared more about Gu Wan.
Gu Chu was quite stubborn when it came to relationships. If she was not the most important person in the person’s heart, she would rather not have the relationship at all.
