As Su Jin spoke, she forcefully grabbed his arm and rolled up his sleeve.
"Xiao Jin, don't do this."
Xie Yunhuai's hands trembled as he tried to avoid her, his weak pushes offering no resistance whatsoever.
Su Jin became stubborn, "Didn't you agree? Why don't you dare show it to me?"
Xie Yunhuai tugged at her sleeve in a conciliatory manner, but Su Jin showed no sign of backing down, her eyes still sharp and tinged with anger.
Having no other choice, he rolled up his sleeves to show her.
"Actually, it's almost healed...it's already scabbed over."
Su Jin reached out and touched the uneven, dark red scars on his arm, one after another, winding along his fair skin.
The newly healed scar was very sensitive, and Xie Yunhuai flinched.
Does it hurt?
Su Jin dared not touch it again, but her eyes remained fixed on it, because the wounds looked painful.
She gripped Xie Yunhuai's thin fingers tightly, trembling uncontrollably.
Was this always the case under his clothes when they met? I was completely unaware.
"elder brother……"
Xie Yunhuai heard the sobbing in her voice and quickly lowered his sleeve to hide the scar.
"Don't cry, Xiao Jin. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let you see these things."
Su Jin suddenly hugged Xie Yunhuai, pursed her lips, and held back the tears in her eyes.
"I didn't cry."
Xie Yunhuai froze, raised his hand, and gently patted her back, his voice still so gentle, "Okay, you didn't cry, and I'm not in pain anymore, I haven't been in pain for a long time..."
Thump!
A loud noise startled them both, and they looked toward the source of the sound.
Gu Xingze's face, contorted with rage, appeared on the glass.
"You bastard! You son of a bitch, I knew you had designs on my wife! Get down here!"
He originally wanted to pick up Su Jin and take her home, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't see any familiar figures. However, the car parked next to him looked more and more familiar.
He covered the light source and looked inside, only to see a scene that horrified him.
Xie Yunhuai half-embraced Su Jin, patting her back gently.
They looked extremely close.
Gu Xingze's eyes were bloodshot as he pounded on the back door, yelling, "Get out of the car! You shameless mistress! Try touching my wife again!"
Su Jin was so shocked that she couldn't speak, her mouth agape, unsure how to react.
What is he doing...?
Gu Xingze wasn't satisfied yet, so he started kicking the door, making a loud banging noise and shaking the whole car.
Forces are reciprocal, and he could feel his right leg bone throbbing painfully.
It hurts a lot, but it's not as bad as the pain in my heart.
Su Jin felt that if she didn't open the door soon, he would tear the car apart.
Click.
Su Jin got out of the car, her face a picture of utter confusion. "What are you doing?"
Gu Xingze's eyes were frighteningly red, and he could barely stand. "Did he do anything to you? You shameless bastard... how dare you treat me like this?"
Su Jin reached out her hand to stop him from continuing, "Wait a minute, calm down. Have you misunderstood something?"
What he just said sounded like lines spoken when catching someone cheating.
Gu Xingze was breathing heavily and could only stand up by holding onto the car door.
It hurt so much that he couldn't tell whether the pain in his legs or his heart was worse.
Xie Yunhuai got out of the car from the other side. "What happened? Mr. Gu, what's going on?"
Upon seeing him, Gu Xingze's previously calm emotions erupted once more, and he rushed forward to punch him.
"You bastard, you still say you only have brotherly feelings for her? Bullshit!"
His Jinjin is so wonderful, he knew this guy had been trying to seduce her for a long time, and no matter how much he tried to stop him, he couldn't.
"Stop for a moment."
Seeing that things were going wrong, Su Jin had already moved far away, ready to run away at any moment.
In case they start fighting, be careful not to get hurt.
Gu Xingze actually stopped what he was doing. She herself hadn't expected that he would still listen to her when he was on the verge of losing his rationality.
Su Jin frowned and stepped forward. "What were you just saying?"
Gu Xingze pointed at Xie Yunhuai, "This shameless bastard just hugged you in the car, I saw it all."
As he spoke, he broke down in tears, "Jinjin, wife, did he force you? Is this slut playing the victim again?"
Su Jin almost choked on her breath, putting on sunglasses to hide the eye roll she was about to make. "Brother, you should go first, don't bother with him."
Xie Yunhuai's expression was rather unpleasant. "Xiao Jin, have I caused you any trouble?"
"No, brother, remember to take care of yourself, bye-bye."
Su Jin pulled Gu Xingze away from this place of trouble.
Xie Yunhuai watched their figures disappear into the distance, then reached out and tried to grab at the air, but to no avail; he found nothing.
He only briefly embraced his moon.
But the moon belongs to the vast sky.
...
Su Jin got into the car and scolded, "You actually tried to hit my brother? Are you living in the Stone Age? Don't you know that hitting someone is illegal!"
Gu Xingze wiped his face, feeling that he must look awful.
Su Jin noticed that his raised hand was covered in bruises; it would be strange if he hadn't gotten hurt after slamming the door so hard.
"I was just hugging him to comfort him, and you went up there shouting for a fight without even knowing what happened..."
Besides, there was a partition between the back seats, so they only bumped shoulders a few times.
Gu Xingze calmed down as she was willing to explain herself.
His hands trembled as he reached for hers, asking softly, "What's the story behind it? Why did you hug him?"
Su Jin looked at his trembling lips.
“This matter is very complicated and involves my brother’s family privacy. You wouldn’t understand even if I told you.”
Gu Xingze squeezed her fingers and leaned closer to her. "How can I know if you don't tell me... I want to know everything about you."
Su Jin's brows were furrowed with lingering sorrow, and she sighed softly.
"He was injured and I was comforting him. I came to the company today to see his mother."
Why do you want to see his mother?
Su Jin was unwilling to say more. If she told the whole story, it would inevitably involve her past.
"You don't need to know, and knowing won't change anything. You just need to know that there can never be anything between my brother and me, because we know each other too well and are too intertwined."
Xie Yunhuai knew all about his painful past, but Su Jin only wanted to treat him as family or a friend.
"Okay, honey, I believe you."
Now that he had calmed down, Gu Xingze belatedly realized the pain in his right leg bone and heart.
He slowly bent down and rubbed his heart, hoping to relieve some of the pain.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Su Jin looked at his strange behavior with a puzzled expression.
Gu Xingze replied in a breathy voice, "It's nothing, just let me catch my breath."
"You didn't... kick too hard just now and broke your leg, did you?"
