Chapter 223 Gu Xinghe: Center of Attention and Liberation



Carol and Rekaya were holding him and clinging to him.

For Gu Xinghe, it can be described as a "test" on a physical level.

Previously, the girls' teasing remarks sounded like "interrogation."

For him, it was a psychological and spiritual "test".

Therefore, the saying "love is war" is quite true.

Gu Xinghe still remembers the first time he realized the truth of this statement was when he was boating with Mia in the city park.

Faced with Mia's self-directed and self-acted drowning scheme, he had no choice but to take action before her.

If we say that at that time he was fighting against Mia and Mia's two consciousnesses in the same body all by himself, then...

In this current love war, the number of "enemy" figures seems to have risen to a level that even Gu Xinghe finds astonishing.

Fortunately, Gu Xinghe, having witnessed Eris's actions before she arrived, now has a similar countermeasure.

Therefore, it is not Gu Xinghe who is leading the group on a tour of the Rose Manor.

Instead, it was Eiffel who was clearly more familiar with the interior of the manor.

After handing over the "guide" task to Eiffel, Gu Xinghe found it unusual that Eris's escapist methods were sometimes quite useful.

So, as Eiffel introduced the story, the girls listened patiently with great interest.

However, they would occasionally glance at Gu Xinghe, who was walking at the very back of the group.

Seeing that Carol and Rekaya, who were clinging to him, were making it difficult for him to move, the girls would smile knowingly.

Although Gu Xinghe pushed the "tour guide" task to Eiffel.

Feeling relieved that she had successfully escaped the center of attention, she breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the so-called center of attention, the focus of everyone's gaze, is never determined by a simple "position".

Whether Gu Xinghe is at the forefront of the crowd or at the very back, it doesn't matter.

Regardless of his location, he was undoubtedly the true center of attention for everyone present.

So for everyone present who seemed to be listening attentively to the introduction or explaining carefully...

In fact, Gu Xinghe, who was at the very back, was the one they cared about the most.

Rose Manor is where Gu Xinghe has always lived, and it is also a place that the other party loves very much.

So, apart from Chris and Eiffel, who already knew about the manor's inner workings.

Only then will others, out of love for the house, also want to know about the interior of the Rose Manor—

[Castle District] [Small Garden] [Botanical Garden] [Clock Tower] [Farm and Ranch] [Wine Cellar] [Horse Farm]

The Rose Estate can be mainly divided into these seven areas.

As Eiffel explained, he led the group on a general tour of the places.

Of course, given the vast area of ​​the Rose Estate, it is impossible for a few people to visit and explore the entire estate in a short period of time.

So, after a general tour of the Rose Manor, Gu Xinghe and his group of eight arrived at the pavilion in the small garden.

As a place to rest after a visit, a small garden is undoubtedly a great choice.

Moreover, it is autumn now, and the gentle breeze blowing from the lake next to the pavilion is truly refreshing.

So everyone simply sat down in the pavilion in the small garden and held a small tea party.

Although it was called "organizing", it wasn't really that "grand".

If you really want to explain it, it's just that the group of people were tired from their tour and took a break here to have some tea.

Various refreshments and drinks were quickly served to the pavilion by other waiters in the manor.

Eiffel, acting as a maid, stood behind Gu Xinghe, pouring tea or serving drinks to everyone.

Watching the others sit down comfortably and take a sip of tea, Gu Xinghe felt as if he had finally been liberated.

This liberation specifically refers to one's waist and hands.

Because during the walking just now.

Carol and Rekaya were clinging tightly to his waist, one on each side, as if they were hanging on him.

Throughout this journey, Gu Xinghe felt as if he had undergone a weight training exercise.

But it seems that now they see Gu Xinghe rubbing his arms and shoulders.

Carol stuck out her tongue, looking a little embarrassed, which was unusual for her.

Then she stuffed the rabbit doll she had been holding into Gu Xinghe's arms, as if she were "apologizing".

Seeing her sister do this, Lekaya didn't hesitate to imitate her.

As she handed her own doll to Gu Xinghe, she also gently kneaded the muscles in Gu Xinghe's arm.

It was as if it was helping him relax the muscles that had been tense all the way, and relieving his discomfort.

Seeing this, Carol picked up a cup of black tea from the table and offered it to Gu Xinghe in a conciliatory manner, wanting to feed him.

Carol and Rekaya moved closer to his face, blinking their eyes as they looked at him, as if begging for forgiveness.

Once again in the center of their attention, Gu Xinghe could only soften and gently pat their heads.

"I forgive you, but you can't do it again next time, understand?"

"Yeah, I remember!"

As soon as Gu Xinghe finished speaking, Carol quickly nodded in response.

But even though Carol seemed to agree so readily.

However, even if Gu Xinghe did not listen to her true thoughts at this time.

He knew, however, that what the other person was really thinking was, "I'm sorry, I'll remember this, but I'll do it again next time."

But compared to Carol's "cheating" agreement, Lekaya on the other hand seemed much more conflicted.

She had always behaved very well, unlike her older sister who had ever thought of "going back on her word".

Therefore, although she now recognizes her "mistake," she is not as decisive as her older sister when she made the promise.

[If I agree, does that mean I can't cling to my brother anymore?]

Thinking this, she secretly glanced at her sister who had "betrayed" her at lightning speed.

In fact, it wasn't just Gu Xinghe who could see through Carol's true inner thoughts at a glance.

As the younger of the twins, Lekaya could obviously see through Carol's true thoughts behind her seemingly nonchalant expression.

[I never knew it could be like this!]

After learning about her sister's actual thoughts, Rekaya nodded hesitantly.

Looking at Gu Xinghe, who was carefully educating his two children, and the somewhat bitter expressions on their faces as they agreed.

All the other girls present wore gentle smiles.
