Chapter 42: Won’t you give me an arm massage in return?

Lin Yuan saw the impatience in the man's eyes and didn't dare to say anything else, so he responded obediently, "Okay, let's go back."

Then he turned around and politely greeted Xu Ruchu and went to her house for a visit.

Xu Ruochu naturally refused. In order not to disturb the two of them, she took the initiative to take Gu Ziyang from Gu Yixiao's arms and slowly said, "Sister Lin Yuan, cousin, you two should go first. My brother and I have a driver."

After saying that, she took Gu Ziyang's hand and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Gu Yixiao couldn't help but call out to her, "Why, my car can't accommodate you?"

Xu Ruochu stopped, turned around and said calmly: "Of course there is room, but my brother prefers to ride in a driver's car."

“…”

Gu Yixiao looked at the woman in front of him, speechless.

This girl must have done it on purpose!

He said nothing more, turned around and left with Lin Yuan.

The man seemed angry. He walked very quickly with a cold face, as if he wanted to disappear immediately.

"Axiao, wait for me." Lin Yuan trotted to catch up, then quietly turned back, looked deeply at Xu Ruchu, and instantly had the idea of ​​venting his anger again in his heart.

Soon the two walked away.

Xu Ruochu looked at his back and felt indescribable discomfort in her heart.

She just didn't want to be a third wheel and didn't want to disturb his and Lin Yuan's time alone. Did she do anything wrong?

"elder sister?"

Xu Ruochu came back to his senses and glanced at his brother, "Oh, let's go too."

"But sister, why did you lie?" Gu Ziyang blinked his eyes and said, "I didn't say I like riding in a driver's car?"

“…”

Xu Ruochu couldn't explain too much, so she just said perfunctorily: "Because you don't like that Lin Yuan, and sister doesn't want you to face her, so I said that."

After hearing this, Gu Ziyang immediately nodded and said, "Yes! I hate my brother's girlfriend and don't want to be with her!"

Seeing his brother's doubts dispelled, Xu Ruochu breathed a sigh of relief, "Well, let's go."

"Um!"

After returning home, Xu Ruochu handed Gu Ziyang to her mother and went to the kitchen to help the servants prepare lunch for the family. She didn't want to live and eat for free at the Gu family, so she took the initiative to do some housework.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped into the living room, he ran into Gu Yixiao coming towards him.

He strode in, wearing a black suit, his face expressionless.

"You're back. Have you had lunch?" Xu Ruchu asked pretending to be calm.

Gu Yixiao said nothing and walked straight to the stairs.

"Cousin..."

She screamed.

But the man seemed to have turned a deaf ear to her and continued walking upstairs until he reached the second floor and disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

Xu Ruochu shook his head secretly and went to the kitchen to wash vegetables.

At this moment, her cell phone rang.

She took it out and saw that it was a call from Gu Yixiao.

Xu Ruochu hesitated for a moment, but still pressed the call button.

"Come to my room immediately."

Gu Yixiao hung up the phone without giving her a chance to react.

She had no choice but to put down the dishes in her hands and go to the study to find Gu Yixiao.

After knocking on the door and getting a response, Xu Ruchu walked in and saw Gu Yixiao had changed his clothes and was standing in front of the window, looking very worried.

This was something she had never seen before.

But she thought it had nothing to do with her, so she didn't want to care and just asked calmly, "What's the matter, cousin?"

After hearing the voice, Gu Yixiao turned around and looked at Xu Ruchu.

His eyes were dark and deep, like a deep pool.

She couldn't understand what he was thinking, but she felt vaguely uneasy and swallowed hard.

"Can't I just call you and ask you to come over if everything is fine?" His voice was low and hoarse, his arms were folded across his chest, and he stared at her condescendingly and motionlessly.

“…”

Xu Ruochu was silent.

This feeling makes people uncomfortable, especially when Gu Yixiao looks at you with such inquiring eyes, like a prey being caught by a hunter.

"Is this how you treat your savior?"

Xu Ruochu's heart skipped a beat, and he always felt that something bad was going to happen.

Sure enough, the next second, the man said, "Why don't you give me an arm massage as a reward? After all, my arm was a little strained when I rescued you from under the power line."

“…”

Gu Yixiao is such a weird person. It was clearly caused by his own carelessness, but he still had the nerve to ask her for a massage. He is so shameless.

"I don't know how to massage." Xu Ruochu did not hide his true feelings.

"Oh? Really? I'll teach you."

“…”

She really couldn't communicate with Gu Yixiao anymore!

So Xu Ruochu turned around and left.

However, she had just taken a few steps when the man grabbed her collar.

Then a light laugh came from behind him.

"Why are you running? I don't think my request as a lifesaver is too high."

“…”

Xu Ruochu pulled the corners of his mouth weakly, then turned around and looked at the man, "Okay, I'll give you a massage..."

If it hurts, don’t blame me!

She added in her heart.

"Hmm." The man smiled slightly and stretched out his left arm.

Xu Ruochu took a deep breath, rolled up his left sleeve, revealing his muscular arm, then grabbed the man's arm and squeezed it hard.

The man raised his eyebrows slightly, watching her do it deliberately with a teasing look. He didn't put in any resistance, letting her toss and turn, even with a slight smile on his lips.

Xu Ruochu's strength was very strong, definitely enough to make the man frown in pain, and there seemed to be a hint of pleasure between his brows.

“…”

Xu Ruochu looked at him in surprise.

He didn't say a word!

Forget it, she didn't have the energy to continue like this, so she had to return to her normal strength.

Gu Yixiao's gaze fell on her, and the curve of his mouth became even deeper.

She looked more like an angry and shy little bunny.

"Young Master Gu, is that okay?!" Xu Ruochu finally spoke.

He wanted to tease her some more, but the servant was calling him downstairs for dinner, so he gave up.

After the servant left, he tidied his clothes and stood up. After telling her to wait a few minutes before going out, he left the study first.

In order to prevent his family from finding out and to prevent Xu Ruchu from causing unnecessary trouble, he had to ensure that the two of them kept their distance as usual.

Xu Ruochu didn't know his intention, but didn't want to know.

She waited for a while before slowly going downstairs.

In the restaurant, her mother was helping to serve the dishes. Her stepfather, grandmother, and younger brother came to the table and sat down one after another. When they saw her, they greeted them quickly.

Gu Yixiao didn't say anything, just ate, glancing at her from time to time intentionally or unintentionally.

Xu Ruochu felt a little depressed, but pretended not to notice this detail.

In the afternoon, Gu Ziyang was taken to the yard by the servant and his mother to play, and she stayed in her brother's bedroom to review her homework.

Knowing that Gu Yixiao would be resting at home on the weekend, she didn't dare step out of the children's room for fear of meeting him.

However, staying like this is not a solution.

She decided to go back to the apartment so as not to miss her classes on time tomorrow.

Moreover, Gu Ziyang's mental state has improved a lot and he no longer needs her to accompany him.
