Stealing Your Heart Chapter 702

Gu Huiyuan was unperturbed as she casually got up and approached Guan Jing. She then reached out and grabbed him by the tie around his neck and said, “I’m sure of that as well. But don’t I have you? Someone close to him?”

Guan Jing glanced down at her raised hand and sneered, “What makes you think I will help you?”

Her fingers slithered upwards to prop his chin and he felt her breath on him. “Who would you help if you wouldn’t help your girl?”

“Ha!” He pinched her by the cheek. “What is this? Are you throwing yourself at me? You are not fit to be my woman!”

Gu Huiyuan was unflappable. She smiled and said, “Me throwing myself at you, or you coming onto me ——it’s academic. The thing is, we hooked up. I hope you weren’t thinking that you are just going to walk away from this. Do I have blown things up by reporting you for sexual assault?”

Guan Jing’s eye narrowed.

“Not like this.” She then raised one leg and brushed the inside of it against his side. “I like a man with a soft touch.”

He responded to her overtures with silence.

“Restrain yourself, you shameless woman!” Guan Jing yelled as he repelled her.

She stumbled and clipped her knee against the corner of the table. As she nursed her wound, she said, “Don’t push your luck, Guan Jing.”

“You’re the one who’s pushing your luck. Do you think I have to do your bidding just because we’ve slept together? It’s just a few photographs. I couldn’t care less who you want to send them to. As for the footage, you could send it to whichever media outlet you like. I, Guan Jing, am not going to allow myself to be held to ransom by any woman!”

He slammed the door on the way out.

Gu Huiyuan’s fingers tightened around themselves as she sat staring at the entry point that Guan Jing had left shut in her face.

Undeterred, she pulled out her phone to call him.

Guan Jing was driving when his cellphone rang. When he saw that it came from Gu Huiyuan, he ignored it and tossed the phone aside.

She then messaged him instead.

The tone representing incoming messages chimed as soon as the ringing died down. Guan Jing reached over and held the phone in his hand. Are you really going to forsake your own future?

He pulled over and replied. What future have I to look forward to after getting mixed up with the likes of you?

Gu Huiyuan persisted. Are you really going to ruin your reputation on the account of your boss?

What would my reputation be now if not already ruined, Gu Huiyuan?

She bit her lip and tried his number again. Guan Jing picked it up this time. “What else do you want?”

Gu Huiyuan asked, “Are you really prepared to throw away your future?”

“Yes,” was his resolute reply.

“Are you a dog? Why are you being so loyal? A paycheck? If you help me, I could help you become your own boss. With your talent and my…”

“Do you think everyone else is unfeeling and unscrupulous like you and your family, Gu Huiyuan? I can’t help you, and I won’t.”

She squeezed the phone in her hand in silence.

Guan Jing then asked, “Why have you gone quiet?”
