You Are the Star I Cannot Touch - Chapter 10

Chapter 10: Gong Yutong, I’m Getting Tired

Gong Yutong drank the porridge, not wanting to deal with Tang Xiaowan.

“Little Yutong, what do we do about the two hours?”

“What do you want to do?” She picked up a steamed bun. This Mu Yan was quite skillful, the buns were beautifully wrapped.

“I’ll sleep with you for two hours.”

Gong Yutong nearly choked on the bun. She drank several sips of water, then gave Tang Xiaowan a look like she was looking at a mental patient, and said, “Tang Xiaowan, you turn left, then turn right, then go straight. It’s about thirty minutes. That place is suitable for you.”

“What place?”

Gu Xizhi covered her face with her hand. In terms of intelligence, no one could compare to Gong Yutong. If she wasn’t familiar with the route she mentioned, she would probably be confused too.

“The mental hospital.”

“I swear, Gong Yutong, you’re cursing me!” Tang Xiaowan exerted force, and the glass top of the coffee table shattered.

Tang Xiaowan, the second sister of the Tang family, had been fighting, gambling, smoking, and drinking since childhood. She had done everything. Later, she met Gong Yutong, who she couldn’t beat or out-argue. She went to learn Taekwondo to defeat Gong Yutong, learning everything, but unfortunately, she was still no match for her. So, her slap shattering the high-quality glass was quite reasonable.

“Five hundred thousand, you pay for it yourself,” Gong Yutong threw the trash into the bin. “If you don’t pay, I’ll have to choose other methods to make you pay.”

“Gong Yutong, are you still my friend? You’re not short of this money?”

“When talking about money, we are not friends. After all, I am a businesswoman. I am indeed not short of money, but I am happy to take this five hundred thousand.”

Tang Xiaowan “…” She couldn’t out-argue her, couldn’t beat her. Since she met her, this was the most unyielding and frustrated time in her life. “What’s going on with you and Mu Yan? I heard you slept with her?”

She felt speechless at her directness. “Yes.”

“You… you… don’t you like men? Why?”

Gu Xizhi recounted what had happened.

“Oh, I see. Then… you slag, aren’t you going to take responsibility?”

Gong Yutong “…” “Either get out yourself or I’ll send you out.”

“It’s true! If you’re not interested in Mu Yan, figure out a way to give her to me. She’s so beautiful, she must be intoxicating.”

“Can you not be so vulgar?” Gu Xizhi was very annoyed. “If she were interested in Mu Yan, she wouldn’t have left her alone until now. She likes men, and it’s impossible for Mu Yan to like you. Don’t harm people.”

“Tch, let’s get back to the point. We’re going to Huayu tonight. You two pay for it, I want to have a good time.”

“It’s my place, play as much as you want. I’m not going,” Gong Yutong said.

“No way, if you don’t go, don’t even think about working today. I’ll go outside and flirt with all your employees, seduce every single one.”

Gong Yutong “…” If it weren’t for her excellent upbringing, Gong Yutong would have cursed a long time ago, but at this moment, she was on the verge of anger.

“Come tonight,” Gu Xizhi dragged Tang Xiaowan out. If they didn’t leave soon, Gong Yutong would really resort to violence. When this person got violent, people usually needed to be rushed to the hospital. This Tang Xiaowan was not afraid of death, but when CEO Gong got angry, she knew no relatives.

“Don’t pull me… I’m not afraid of her,” Tang Xiaowan’s voice faded away.

Gong Yutong’s head felt much lighter. Whenever she returned, she had no peaceful days. Leaning against the leather seat, she tried to relax. The thought of going out with Tang Xiaowan tonight gave her a headache, and her waist still hurt.

“CEO,” Mu Yan came in and saw Gong Yutong’s face full of anger and helplessness. In her bones, she was actually quite afraid of her. After all, this person inspired fear. It was fine if you didn’t provoke her, but once provoked, she was quite terrifying. The whole of Z City wouldn’t dare to offend her. The fear people felt had nothing to do with the Gong family; they feared Gong Yutong the individual.

“Something wrong?” Gong Yutong remained cold and emotionless, but it was limited to this. She wouldn’t lash out at innocent people, and she controlled her emotions quickly.

“I…” She was only bold when she was a little abnormal. “The secretary won’t be coming today. This is the schedule. I… might not know a lot of things.”

“Just ask me,” she took the documents Mu Yan handed her and opened them. This person’s work style was very unique. In fact, if these ten years hadn’t been focused on her, she would probably be one of the top elites in the business world. “Why don’t you start your own company?”

“I… have offended so many people. I don’t want to implicate the entire company and its employees.”

Her implication was that she might die at any time. As an assassin who had killed so many people, how could she not be sought for revenge? Even if she had many people under her command, and even if she was ranked first on the assassin list, accidents would still happen. She was also a doctor, which she considered atonement for saving lives.

“You were full of confidence when chasing me, and very bold when pestering me, not afraid of death. You should know that the greater your power, the more wary people who want to kill you will be,” she put down the documents and leaned back lazily, looking at her. “Mu Yan, number one on the assassin list. The people behind you don’t necessarily all have to be assassins; they can be a force in the underworld, which you can expand. Whether it’s expanding business or something else, I’m sure you know how to do that. Allowing a company to be affiliated with the underworld and slowly grow into a huge force, who wouldn’t be wary? Don’t focus your energy on me. Do something that can protect yourself. If you can’t even protect yourself, how can you talk about protecting others?”

“Have you considered that even if I were with you, could you truly protect yourself? Would my family let you go? Or would those jealous people let you go? You would become the public enemy of Z City. They aren’t dealing with you now because I’m not interested in you. But because you kissed me, do you think they won’t take action? I haven’t investigated you and don’t know what kind of background you have. Everyone knows the visible part, and I also know that dealing with you would indeed require some effort, but more than half of the people in Z City can deal with you.”

“I know, but you don’t like me, so what’s the point of working hard? In the end… the day you get married is probably the day I leave this world, so there’s no need.” She seemed a little defeated. For ten years, she had exhausted every means, but she couldn’t win her heart. One day, she would strike her for the person she loved. At that time, she would truly give up hope and have no reason to live.

“My persistence is you. I live only because you live, only because I still have a chance. If one day you point a knife at me for someone else, I will be sad, but I will also be happy. Dying by your hand would make me happy. For these ten years, I’ve held on until now because of you. This necklace, you gave it to me. Every time I see it, I think of you. Every time I hover between life and death, as long as it’s there, I can hold on. Gong Yutong, I’m getting tired. These ten years of loving you have been exhausting, but I’ve also been happy because I can still see you and be near you. You are truly out of reach.” She suddenly felt so tired. After saying these words, she left.
