Chapter 159 Illusion
Facing Lin Du's alienation and indifference, he held Lin Du's hand and rubbed it gently, regardless of his finger twitching.
"Lin Du, it's reasonable for you to hate me. I accept it."
"Like Su Wenlang said, I am the instigator, so I should be punished."
"But, can you please not leave me? This is my only condition. I will agree to everything else."
Lin Du turned his face away. To be honest, he was not used to Gu Lanchi's humble attitude.
It always felt unreal, and he didn't know how long this kind of boredom could last. After all, his mood was changeable and unpredictable.
So, that's it.
"I need to go find someone, can you please...let go of my hand?"
"No, you go find someone, I'll go with you." Gu Nishi refused and held Lin Du's hand tightly like a child.
Lin Du sighed helplessly: "Let's go."
Sitting in the car, Gu Nishi sat closely next to Lin Du, staring at him all the time.
Lin Du felt a little uncomfortable, he turned his head and looked out the window.
When they arrived at Lin Yue's school, Jiang Chao refused to come out to meet him.
Lin Du bit his lip helplessly. He had actually guessed the result.
Gu Nichi walked over and took his hand: "If there is a problem that you can't solve, just come to me directly to solve it."
Gu Yinchi rubbed Lin Du's face, made a phone call, and Jiang Chao was soon brought over.
Gu Niechi leaned forward to please him, grinning: "I'm awesome, right?"
Lin Du was startled and curled his lips: "Amazing."
Gu Jinchi raised the corners of his mouth, his face full of pride.
When Jiang Chao saw Lin Du, he lowered his head guiltily.
Lin Du walked over. Although he felt somewhat ashamed of his behavior, he did not blame him: "Why did you suddenly leave that day?"
Jiang Chao lowered his head and said nothing, clenching his fists nervously.
Gu Niechi frowned and shouted coldly: "I'm asking you a question!"
Jiang Chao shuddered with fear. He glanced at Gu Yanchi timidly, and then quickly looked away the next second: "I'm... I'm sorry, I really can't come up with three hundred thousand."
Lin Du sighed: "I know, I didn't intend to let you take the responsibility, I just asked you to help me look after it there."
Jiang Chao was so ashamed that he rubbed his hands awkwardly: "You also know Lin Yue's physical condition. It is possible at any time..."
"I wouldn't bet on that."
"You..." Lin Du held back the angry Gu Yanchi's hand, and he instantly calmed down.
Lin Du pursed his lips, feeling complicated: "Thank you for your honesty."
Letting go of Gu Pengchi, Lin Du turned and left.
Jiang Chao is not Lin Yue's good match, so there is no need for excessive entanglement.
Gu Niechi glared at Jiang Chao fiercely, then turned around and caught up with Lin Du.
Lin Du leaned against the car window, feeling heavy-hearted. He really didn't know how to tell Lin Yue this reality.
"This is a good thing. It just happens to help Lin Yue identify the scumbag." Gu Nichi stroked Lin Du's shoulder, trying to comfort him.
Lin Du glanced at Gu Yinchi with complicated eyes and chose to remain silent.
As if he was aware of the awkward atmosphere, he shut his mouth in disgust.
After returning home, Lin Du got out of the car, and Gu Yanchi followed closely behind him.
Lin Du turned around and Gu Yanchi suddenly stopped.
"You...you should go back. You are tired after a whole day. Go back and rest early."
Gu Nishi frowned and slowly approached. He held Lin Du's hand tightly and said, "Where can I go if you stay here?"
"But the conditions here are not good, and you won't be used to living here..."
"No, I think it's good, very warm." Gu Yanchi took Lin Du's hand and placed it on the side of his face, "Where you are, everything is the best."
Lin Du curled his lips but did not stop it.
"I'll go cook, you sit down and take a rest." Gu Nichi took the apron swiftly.
Just as Lin Du was about to stop him, he rushed out.
Lin Du sighed helplessly, there was nothing he could do about him.
Gu Nichi used his mobile phone to watch various video tutorials, and he turned the kitchen into a battlefield.
Lin Du walked over worriedly, looking at Gu Nichi's funny and stubborn look, he chuckled and shook his head: "You go out, I'll do it, your hand is still injured."
Gu Yanchi stopped Lin Du: "No, I can do it. I will pay attention to the wound."
Gu Nichi was not convinced. It was apparently quite easy when I learned it from the neighbor's grandmother that day. Why was it so difficult for me to do it alone?
Lin Du wanted to go forward again, but was interrupted by a phone call. He tilted his head to listen to who it was.
"I'm going to be out for a while." Lin Du briefly explained and turned to leave.
"Go ahead, I'll call you when it's done." Gu Nienchi said to Lin Du's back.
Chen Wei stood at the intersection, looking at the luxury car not far away with a lonely expression.
"Chen Wei, thank you for your help last time."
Chen Wei smiled bitterly: "Don't thank me, I didn't help much."
"How could that be? You helped me take care of Lin Yue."
Chen Wei couldn't help but glance at the luxury car: "Have you guys reconciled?"
Lin Du lowered his head and said nothing.
Chen Wei was unwilling, but there was nothing he could do.
There was such a huge gap between him and Gu Xinchi, so why would Lin Du choose him? "I respect your choice, but you are staying with someone who hurt you. Aren't you really in pain?"
Lin Du pinched his fingers: "I..."
"Lin Du, you really can't get out if you get stuck this time." Chen Wei supported Lin Du's shoulders, "Do you understand that his kindness to you now is all fake? Don't you know best what he wants?"
Lin Du sighed: "I understand, but Lin Yue can't do without his help, I can't do anything."
Chen Wei frowned, Lin Du's words "there's nothing we can do" also reflected what he was thinking.
Facing Lin Du, he was equally helpless.
Gu Nichi stood at the corner, arms folded over his chest, with a jealous look on his face: "What is it that requires so much time to talk?"
Chen Wei put his hands on Lin Du's shoulders: "Lin Du, why can't you live for yourself..."
Lin Du was shocked. Did this mean that he should give up Lin Yue?
There was a murderous coldness in his dangerous eyes. As he watched Chen Wei making moves, Gu Penchi could no longer suppress the anger in his heart.
But he has learned his lesson this time and will not embarrass Lin Du.
Coming out from the corner, Gu Yanchi's expression changed instantly.
With a faint smile on his face, he walked over and said, "Lin Du, the meal is ready, you can eat now."
Lin Du rubbed his hands in embarrassment: "I know...I know."
"This must be your friend Mr. Chen, I met him in the hospital before." Gu Nichi looked at Chen Wei with a smile on his face, but the contempt in his eyes was hurled at Chen Wei without any hesitation, "Mr. Chen, do you want to join us? I'll cook for you myself!"
Chen Wei clenched his fists angrily, looking at Gu Penchi's arrogant face, wishing he could punch him hard.
"Chen Wei, you go back first." The atmosphere was weird and Lin Du felt really uncomfortable.
"It seems to be getting late. Then we won't keep you here, Mr. Chen. We'll invite you to our home next time." Gu Ni Chi raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of provocation.
