When Gu Xiuyu pushed the door, it was already locked from the outside.
The door was locked?
Gu Xiuyu lowered his head and smiled helplessly, "Ziyu, these rooms haven't been tidied up, there's no quilt on the bed. Come out first, let me go in and tidy it up for you."
The rooms were indeed empty. Ye Ziyu opened the cupboard, and it was even more vacant. It was evident that Gu Xiuyu had deliberately turned the other rooms into empty shells so that she could rest peacefully in the marital room.
However, he underestimated her adaptability. What if the rooms were untidy and had no quilts? She had lived in dark, foul-smelling basements before. The current room was hundreds of times better than that.
Since his knocking received no response, Gu Xiuyu turned and walked downstairs.
A few minutes later, he returned to the tightly shut door with a set of keys.
"Don't open the door to come in!" Ye Ziyu, hearing the sound of the key being inserted into the lock and turned, shouted loudly.
Amidst her objections, Gu Xiuyu opened the door from the outside.
Ye Ziyu glared at him in anger.
"I won't force you to go to our marital room if you don't want to now, but I must tidy this room up for you personally. Otherwise, I'll worry if you sleep here," Gu Xiuyu said.
Ye Ziyu looked at him warily, not trusting him.
"You sit there and rest, I'll wipe down the room first," Gu Xiuyu said, rolling up his sleeves and getting to work.
The sound of the faucet came from the bathroom in the room, and after a while, he came out with a basin. He glanced at Ye Ziyu, smiled, and deftly wrung out the rag to wipe invisible dust from the bed.
Ye Ziyu turned and walked to the window, looking at the night outside. She instinctively reached out to open the window.
"Be careful, my dear!" Hearing her cry, Gu Xiuyu dropped the rag in his hand and quickly turned to check her reddened hand, which had been shocked. He looked up at Ye Ziyu's expression, pouted, and blew on her hand. "Does it hurt? I told you there's electricity here, you can't touch it."
Looking at his concerned expression, Ye Ziyu felt disgusted. She impatiently pushed his hand away and asked coldly, "Do you really care about me?"
"Of course, I love you, I wouldn't bear to see you hurt," Gu Xiuyu tried to reach out and touch Ye Ziyu again, but was mercilessly rejected.
Ye Ziyu looked at his face with a cold expression. "If you really don't want to see me hurt, then remove all the electricity from these doors and windows."
To make it easier for her to escape?
Gu Xiuyu was unwilling.
"It's not safe on the island, so we can't remove it for now. Ziyu, you must remember that if there are things you shouldn't touch, then don't touch them."
"Heh," Ye Ziyu snorted coldly.
Was it because the outside of the villa was unsafe, or to trap him inside? After going this far, how could he say such hypocritical and pleasant words?
Seeing her unhappiness, Gu Xiuyu didn't continue the topic. He turned back to wipe the bed frame. After cleaning the room, he went out again to get a quilt and bedding.
"Is there anything else you need in the room? I'll get it for you," Gu Xiuyu asked.
Ye Ziyu didn't need his so-called solicitous attention. "You go out, I need to rest." xxsYi Er
"Okay." Gu Xiuyu picked up the basin and left the room efficiently.
Without him, no one could leave the villa from the inside. He wasn't worried about Ye Ziyu running out in the middle of the night. Without a phone, she couldn't contact anyone outside either.
In the middle of the night, a strong wind suddenly blew, bringing dark clouds that obscured the high-hanging moon.
With a swoosh, a torrential rain began.
The sound of rain hitting the glass window, Di Mingjue stood up from his chair.
