Chapter 183: Giving Her Life For The Ring

When Gu Zheng hugged her, he was extremely glad that Mrs. Gu was not really weak. Otherwise, facing the attacks of these five people, she might not have been able to wait for him.

If he were a moment later, she would really be injured and her face would be disfigured. What should she do then?

A terrifying chill spread out from Gu Zheng’s body. He narrowed his eyes and coldly looked at the group.

“Qiao Rou incited you to come.”

These words sounded very calm, but everyone was trembling in fear. The man in front of them was like a demon from hell.

Then, a group of bodyguards in black rushed out and quickly held the five people down.

Gu Zheng put his arm around Qiao Xi and said indifferently, “Song Shiyu, get rid of them.”

Song Shiyu had already called the police. The five of them were caught, but they were not afraid.

This was because they thought that Rou Rou would not ignore them. She would definitely use money to free them.

Qiao Xi quickly picked up the ring and wiped the dust off it. “It’s dirty now…”

Gu Zheng held her hand. “Actually, you’re capable of dealing with them, right?”

Qiao Xi choked. “I guess.”

Gu Zheng calmed his emotions, and his breathing gradually returned to normal.

These people were indeed not a match for Qiao Xi, but their methods were too vicious. It was difficult to guarantee that Qiao Xi would not be injured.

Gu Zheng kept his eyes fixed on the item in her hand. “For the ring?”

Qiao Xi was stunned and felt slightly guilty.

Gu Zheng reached out to take the ring. Looking at the dust-covered ring, the corners of his lips curled up. “You cherish my gift so much that you’re unwilling to throw it away even though you’d get hurt?”

Qiao Xi’s pupils were constricted.

When she saw the ring land on the floor, she felt like her heart was missing a piece.

Although her senior had already given her many gifts, the ring was the first gift Gu Zheng gave her.

This group of people almost destroyed it!

She concealed her thoughts and cleared her throat. “Don’t think too much. I just think this ring is very expensive and my heart aches for it.”

Gu Zheng lowered his eyes and touched the ring. He said casually, “Then you should know what brand this ring is from?”

Qiao Xi was speechless. What did Gu Zheng mean by this? Why did he suddenly ask about the brand of the ring?

She never wore rings, so she did not know much about these things.

Gu Zheng said slowly, “You don’t know?”

She looked confused. Then, she heard the man chuckle. “You don’t even know what brand it is, yet you said it’s expensive? You were even willing to risk your life for the ring?”

Qiao Xi’s heart was instantly in a mess as she muttered softly, “I don’t know what brand this is, but I think the things you give me are definitely not cheap.”

Gu Zheng smiled.

His gaze was burning as he stared at her.

After a moment of silence, the man raised his hand and stroked her slightly cold cheek. His voice was gentle but filled with strength. “Qiao Xi, you really like me, don’t you?”
