Chapter 149: Something Happened to Gu Chu
If her guess was correct, the middle-aged man was Li Xiu’s son, the fugitive!
Just as Lin Yu finished his sentence, the man suddenly appeared and snatched her phone. Another man appeared at the same time and closed the door. Both of them had knives in their hands, so she and her secretary did not dare to resist, they could only watch as they tied them up.
Li Xiu did not look like a kind old lady. “It’s these two. They’ve been asking around recently. These two b * tches must have discovered something and almost exposed the truth!”
Her voice… Wasn’t it the same voice that had just called the owner away?
Compared to the old man’s calmness, her son was at a loss. “Then what should we do?”
Li Xiu stared at Gu Chu. “Sister Yu has already been sent out by me. She won’t be back for a while, but we have to get rid of them as soon as possible!”
Get rid of them as soon as possible! Her words implied that she wanted to kill them.
The secretary was so scared that her tears kept falling. She whimpered and hid behind Gu Chu, her body trembling.
Gu Chu looked calm on the surface, but she was already panicking in her heart. What should she do?
Li Xiu’s son asked in disbelief, “Should we kill them? But, what if we are discovered?”
The young man, on the other hand, was rather determined. “Kill them. Otherwise, there will be endless trouble in the future.”
Gu Chu whimpered and shook her head twice.
Murder was a serious offence. If they were caught, they would be shot. They couldn’t agree, so they walked out to discuss.
Gu Chu struggled, but they were tightly tied up and could not break free.
She also tried to call out, but the worst thing was that there was construction ahead. The road was blocked, so it was difficult for ordinary people to pass through!
The more Gu Chu thought about it, the warmer she got. Her whole body was sweating, but soon she realized that she was not sweating because she was afraid. She was really warm!
It seemed like there was something burning here!
Gu Chu looked up and saw that the gas stove was on. There was a pot of something cooking, and the smell was quite strong.
It was beef! The owner had left in a hurry, so she forgot to turn it off!
Gu Chu stared at the fire and looked around. Suddenly, she noticed a white semi-circular thing on the ceiling, with a red light.
It was a fire alarm!
When their hotels changed the fire alarm, she was the one who handled it. She knew that once the alarm sounded, the entire building would be alerted and it would be automatically connected to the fire station’s system!
Fire station!
A thought flashed across Gu Chu’s mind. She used her shoulder to nudge the scared secretary beside her and raised her chin. “Oh!”
Then, she pointed at the fire alarm on the ceiling.
The secretary pulled herself together. She seemed to understand, but her hands and feet were tied. How could she trigger the alarm?
Gu Chu was very grateful that the kitchen was not tidy at all. There were all kinds of things scattered around, including newspapers and magazines.
Gu Chu did not have time to think. She picked up the newspaper on the ground and hopped to the gas stove. She stood up and ignited the newspaper with the fire. Then, she threw it on the ground under the automatic alarm.
However, this fire was far from enough. Therefore, the secretary jumped over, picked up the remaining magazines, and lit them up. Then, she threw them on the ground!
However, it was still not enough. Gu Chu looked up and saw a big oilcloth, but there was a big wooden box on it. She pulled it, but it didn’t move.
The secretary quickly jumped over and pulled with her.
With great difficulty, the two of them pulled the cloth out, but the box on it rolled on the ground with a bang.
Gu Chu’s eyelids twitched. She quickly threw the cloth away and came to the door, using her back to block it!
The moment she blocked the door, the three people outside also reacted. They kept knocking on the door. The man cursed, “Damn it! What are you doing?”
Gu Chu’s heart was beating like thunder. She looked at her secretary. “Mm mm mm!”
Hurry up and throw it into the fire!
The secretary nodded repeatedly and put the cloth into the fire.
The oilcloth was a flammable material. The flames immediately engulfed the entire cloth!
The secretary was so shocked that she fell to the ground and took two steps back. The fire instantly spread until the entire kitchen was in a sea of fire.
Gu Chu suddenly felt that it was difficult to breathe.
“Open the door!” Li Xiu and the other two were still colliding with the door, causing Gu Chu’s back and chest to tremble.
The secretary jumped out and blocked the door with her. At this moment, their will to survive was so strong that they actually withstood the strength of three people!
