The hint in his eyes made Lin Xin panic. Her face subconsciously flushed. She said in a panic, "Xiaochen, don't do this. It's me...I said the wrong thing. Our Xiaochen has grown up a long time ago, and I just didn't realize it."
She looked at Gu Chen who had grown up in front of her with a slightly dazed look. He had sharp eyebrows, starry eyes, a high nose bridge, and smooth lines. He was no longer the immature man he was when she first met him.
Gu Chen's lips curled up into a smile unconsciously. Looking at Lin Xin, who had a gentle expression under him, his eyes couldn't help but fall on her lips, and he felt a little eager in his heart.
He couldn't help but bend down. Seeing him getting closer and closer to her, Lin Xin suddenly pushed him away in panic. She jumped up from the bed and ran away in a hurry.
Looking at her fleeing back, a trace of regret appeared between Gu Chen's eyebrows.
How could he have forgotten that she was his eldest brother's fiancée? He rubbed his hair in annoyance.
He got dressed and went downstairs, where he met his parents and started to leave with a bohemian look on his face.
"Gu Chen, where are you going?" Father Gu looked at his youngest son seriously.
"Go out and play. I won't be going home these few days." He said casually.
"Just play, play, play. You are so old and all you think about is playing. Can you learn from your brother, manage the company well, get a serious girlfriend, and stop fooling around?" Father Gu said with a look of disappointment.
"Old Gu, don't get angry all the time. If you want him to learn from his brother, you should give him a chance to manage a company." Mother Gu said with love for her son, and secretly exchanged glances with Gu Chen, asking him to be more obedient.
"He only has two or three skills. How can he compare with his brother? I gave him a company to manage, but he ruined it all. You have spoiled him since he was a child, and look at what he has become now. It's true that a loving mother often spoils her son." Gu's father said angrily.
"Old Gu, are you blaming me? Xiaochen and his brother are both sons of the Gu family. Why can't Xiaochen manage a company directly? Do you want him to start from the grassroots level? The grassroots level is so hard. Anyway, I don't agree." Mother Gu said stubbornly.
"Don't you and I know whether Gu Chen has the ability? Starting from today, you will start from the grassroots level of the company." Gu's father's tone was full of command.
Gu Chen crossed his arms, watching his parents bickering indifferently, and said, "No, I don't want to go to the grassroots level. If you really want me to train, I can consider giving me the position of CEO. As for finding a serious girlfriend, I see that my sister-in-law is obedient and gentle to my eldest brother and the Gu family. How dull and boring."
His gaze passed through the two of them and fell on Lin Xin who was not far away. Her ugly expression was suddenly caught in his eyes.
"Look at what your son said. He's not capable of that, yet he's asking for such a huge amount of money. And your sister-in-law is your eldest brother's fiancée. Not only do you not know how to respect her, but you even dared to slander her in front of us. I think you're asking for a beating."
Father Gu looked at him angrily, but the unrepentant look on Gu Chen's face made him even more angry.
"You unfilial son, I'll beat you to death today." Father Gu had a hot temper when he got angry, and he would grab an empty cup and throw it at him at any time.
"Xiaochen, be careful." Two voices shouted in unison.
Gu Chen dodged quickly, but was still a step too late. The cup scratched his arm and a trace of blood spilled out.
"Old Gu, Xiaochen is your son. You are going to kill him before you are willing to sacrifice yourself." Mother Gu yelled at him angrily.
Father Gu saw that his arm was injured and his hands hanging at his sides were trembling slightly, his face still serious. "Seeing him not doing his best makes me angry."
After saying this, he went upstairs quickly.
Mother Gu looked at the bloodstains on his arm and at Lin Xin, who was standing there motionless. She yelled, "Are you blind? Can't you see Xiaochen is injured? Hurry and get the first aid kit."
Lin Xin was awakened by the scolding and hurried to get the medicine box.
Seeing his mother scolding her, Gu Chen frowned.
He withdrew his hand and said, "Mom, this little injury is nothing serious. I'll leave first."
"No, Xiaochen, deal with it first before leaving." Mother Gu insisted on pulling him along, and when she saw Lin Xin coming out, she vented her anger on her.
"Lin Xin, what are you dawdling about? Are you hoping that Xiaochen's injury gets worse so that Gu Zhiyan can reward you?" Mother Gu looked at her with almost hostile eyes.
"No, Mom." Lin Xin looked at her with a wronged expression.
Mother Gu was upset when she saw this, so she snatched the medicine box from her hand and applied medicine to Gu Chen.
But Mother Gu had never used these before and didn't know how to do it. Lin Xin took the initiative and said, "Mom, let me do it."
Mother Gu angrily gave her the things and warned, "If anything happens to my son, I will settle the score with you."
Lin Xin first disinfected him with alcohol. Gu Chen groaned, and she gently comforted him, "Xiao Chen, bear with it a little longer, it will be fine soon."
Gu Chen looked at her with a dazed look.
The cool breeze she exhaled blew into his arm, easing his slight pain. Then she wrapped his arm with white gauze. The faint fragrance of a woman came to his nose from time to time.
As soon as she finished tying the bow on his gauze, Gu Chen pushed her away and said lightly, "Mom, I'm leaving."
He left without even glancing at Lin Xin.
Gu Chen made an appointment with Mo Junyao at noon. He reported everything about Lu Wanying to him and mentioned An Xinghe to him as well.
Mo Junyao frowned slightly, "If you can help, then help."
If Youyou regained her memory, she would definitely not stand idly by after knowing about this.
Gu Chen looked at him suspiciously, "Jun Yao, you're really abnormal. It's fine that you helped with Lu Wanying's matter, but why are you helping with An Xinghe's matter too? Is this because of your sister-in-law or something else?"
Mo Junyao himself couldn't explain why. Just as he was frowning, he caught a glimpse of the gauze on his arm and asked worriedly, "What's wrong with your hand?"
Gu Chen said indifferently, "It's okay, just a minor injury."
"Bow tie, was it bandaged by a woman?" Mo Junyao guessed subconsciously.
Gu Chen's face remained calm. With a little effort, he pulled off the gauze and threw it into the trash can.
"The maid at home." He said lightly.
Mo Junyao was not a gossipy person, so he did not continue to ask.
Hospital.
An Xinghe waited for a whole day but Wanying didn't show up. He didn't expect that she was so cruel that she didn't even want to see him.
Then there is no need to stay in this hospital.
