Chapter 167: A red light appeared behind Gu Yunting!
Lu Xin's words not only helped Gu Yunting to come to his senses, but also Su Mengxue.
She could never let go of Gu Yunting, and now he appeared in front of her without any warning. She was speechless for a moment, staring at him in a daze, and even forgot that the dagger was against her back.
He looked much more mature and experienced than he was five years ago. His face had a more resolute look and his body was a little thinner. It was obvious that he had had a hard time on the island over the years.
Her heart couldn't help but tighten. Didn't that woman take good care of him? But she quickly sneered in her heart. What did his life have to do with her? She was just an outsider.
Thinking of this, her fingers hanging at her sides unconsciously clenched, and the expression on her face suddenly became a little colder.
Gu Yunting looked at the strange woman in front of him who was looking at him. From the information he found, she should be the adopted daughter of the Lu family and Su Mengxue's sister Lu Xin.
He smiled politely at her: "Hello, I'm Gu Yunting."
After he finished speaking, he hurriedly turned to look at Su Mengxue. At this moment, he was both nervous and excited. He wanted to rush to Su Mengxue immediately, but after seeing the cold and distant look on her face, the look in his eyes dimmed a little.
He then thought about how he had misunderstood her over the years, how he had not been able to help her in her most difficult time, and how she had gone through the sadness and hard work of raising the children alone for so many years, and he felt extremely guilty.
It was understandable that Su Mengxue looked at him this way. He was too embarrassed to step forward. His Adam's apple rolled again and again. He suppressed the emotions in his heart and said carefully:
"Mengxue, you must have had a hard time these years, right? I'm sorry for you and your mother. As soon as I received the call from the instructor, I immediately reported back and rushed back. I didn't even bother to go home. I came to Shanghai to find you the first time. Mengxue, the reason I didn't contact you all these years was that I misunderstood you. Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of you and your mother in the future."
He thought about these words over and over all the way on the train. He was not a man who could say sweet words, and he felt that saying too much could not make up for the debt he owed to her and the child over the years. He still had to take practical actions in the future.
But after he said that, he thought about it and was afraid that his explanation was not sufficient, and Su Mengxue would not forgive him and would not give him a chance to make amends.
After thinking it over for a while, he quickly explained, "Mengxue, the girl in the photo that the instructor told you about before was actually the one he was planning to introduce to Jiang Weilong. He said that because he mistakenly thought you had aborted the baby and were seeing another man. He lied to you to prevent you from contacting me."
"Is the girl in the photo the one he wants to introduce to Jiang Weilong?" Su Mengxue frowned and asked in surprise.
Gu Yunting nodded with a determined look in his eyes: "Mengxue, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have believed him back then. I should have asked you clearly. I shouldn't have insisted on not contacting you for so many years."
"I was wrong about this. I will definitely make amends for it in the future. Mengxue, in my heart, I have never liked any other woman except you. Can you please forgive me this time?"
When Gu Yunting said this, tears welled up in his eyes and his voice became hoarse and low.
When Su Mengxue heard Gu Yunting say this, she felt complicated. Although she had hated and resented him over the years, she also thought that if she had the chance to see him again in the future, she would definitely ask him why he betrayed her so quickly and fell in love with someone else.
But when he really appeared in front of her, when he explained the whole cause and effect of what happened that year, and she saw his red eyes, his guilty look, his military uniform that he hadn't had time to change, and his muddy military shoes, she only felt aggrieved and relieved.
She felt aggrieved because he came so late, and why he listened to Lin Wenbin and didn't contact her or reply to her letters for so many years. She was glad that the girl in the photo was a fictitious existence, and that there was no other woman around him all these years.
She stared at Gu Yunting, biting her lips tightly, and growled at him with tears in her eyes: "Gu Yunting, you big bastard, why do you believe what others say? Why are you so cruel and refuse to reply to my letter? Why did you say on the phone that you would never contact me again? You, you are such a bad person."
At this moment, her tears flowed unrestrainedly down her face. The knot in her heart that had been suppressed for five years was relieved at this moment, and the emotions that had been suppressed for too long were also released at this moment.
When Gu Yunting heard her say this, he felt regret and pain in his heart, but more of a heartache. He felt like a knife was cutting his heart again and again, and he was in so much pain that he couldn't breathe.
He wanted to go forward and hug her in his arms, but he was afraid of making her angry, so he could only stand there at a loss, coaxing her like a child, and kept murmuring softly:
"Mengxue, please stop crying, okay? I really know I was wrong. Please don't punish yourself for my mistake, okay? Please, Mengxue."
As he spoke, his eyes became red again.
Su Mengxue, however, completely ignored what he said and burst into tears.
Lu Xin could see how much Gu Yunting cared about Su Mengxue, and could also see that Su Mengxue had never forgotten him all these years. Thinking of Lu Yuanzhou, who had been by her side for many years, and the countless suitors around her, she was furious.
She clenched her fists tightly, bit her back teeth, and sighed to herself: Why is she so lucky? The person she likes cares about her so much, unlike her who has been in love for so many years but still can't get Cheng Xinkai's heart.
Her eyelashes trembled. She was alone and could not let Su Mengxue and her family be happy, especially now that she was a fugitive. She could not help that bitch Su Mengxue.
Thinking of this, she gripped the dagger a little harder. She wanted to remind Su Mengxue of the dangerous situation she was facing and let her take the initiative to reject Gu Yunting.
Su Mengxue instantly felt the sharp sound behind her and came to her senses. She was of course aware of Lu Xin's thoughts and intentions.
Just when she didn't know whether to hint to Gu Yunting to save her or let him go, the loudspeaker in the waiting room began urging passengers who had not yet boarded the train to check their tickets and board the train. Then she heard Lu Xin speak with a hint of meaning.
"Sister, the train is about to leave. We have to check our tickets and get on board quickly. Otherwise, if we delay our work, something serious might happen. You and Brother Yunting will have plenty of opportunities to talk later, so let's go first."
Su Mengxue's eyes darkened. When she looked up, she saw a strong red light on Gu Yunting's body. Her heart instantly rose to her throat. Is Gu Yunting in danger?
How could he?
Her mind immediately flashed back to the time when Gu Yunting almost died trying to save her. Her heart sank. Could it be possible that he might get into trouble again while trying to save her?
