Chapter 18 Ridiculous

As more and more people gathered around, the woman began to act pitiful and weak.

"Young man, please beg for mercy on us and ask this gentleman to spare us!" Seeing that Gu Penchi had no intention of sparing them, the woman had to ask Lin Du for help.

Lin Du was startled, and he pinched his fingers nervously.

He didn't dare to look up at Gu Yanchi. He could feel that Gu Yanchi was looking at him with a fiery gaze.

Lin Du sighed lightly, women are afraid of being neglected, and he is even more afraid.

If he could, he would choose to escape without hesitation.

But Lin Du couldn't bear to do it after all, and he didn't want to be watched any longer, so he raised his eyes slightly and stole a glance at Gu Xinchi.

Why did he look at him so tenderly? For a moment he couldn't tell whether this was him ten years ago or him ten years later.

"Let them go. I...I have to go to work too." Lin Du lowered his head, trying to struggle out of Gu Lianchi's arms, but Gu Lianchi didn't give him any chance.

"Get out!" Gu Niechi growled, his murderous eyes filled with anger.

The woman fled in panic, holding the child, and the crowd dispersed amid discussions.

Looking at the scattered food on the ground, Lin Du sighed deeply. This order would be in vain again, and he might even be complained about.

"Don't worry about it, let me see your injuries." Gu Xinchi held Lin Du's face in his hands with concern.

Gu Nichi's touch seemed to irritate Lin Du, and he dodged in panic.

"Lin Du, I... I just wanted to see if you were injured. Why are you hiding from me?" Gu Ni Chi lowered his eyes, slightly sad, "You hate me!"

Lin Du lowered his eyes and shook his head unconsciously: "No... I don't dislike you."

"Then why don't you let me get close to you? You keep avoiding me. Do you know how sad I am?"

Lin Du smiled bitterly. He was just afraid, inexplicably afraid.

As soon as he saw Gu Anshi, all the past events would come to his mind, and he would have difficulty breathing and his thoughts would become confused.

"Thank you." Lin Du struggled to stand up, and just as he was about to pick up the car, he was grabbed by Gu Lianchi.

"Lin Du, do you know that you are injured? Are you torturing yourself or me?" Gu Xinchi growled, his eyes red and dazzling.

"Let me go... I'm busy!"

He picked up Lin Du and opened the car door with one hand, locking him inside.

Frightened and uneasy, Lin Du kept hitting the car window, but Gu Penchi had no intention of letting him out.

After getting in the car, Gu Yanchi held Lin Du's hand and signaled him to be quiet. "I've sent you the address. Come over and take care of things."

Lin Du pulled his hand away and pressed against the car window: "What do you want to do?"

Starting the car, Gu Nichi sighed: "I have arranged for someone to come and deal with it, you don't have to worry, and... don't be afraid of me."

Lin Du was startled. Gu Yanchi's tone sounded so aggrieved.

He lowered his head and refused to look, shrinking his body as if trying to distance himself from Gu Pengchi.

Lin Du pinched his fingers, feeling a tight pain in his chest.

He didn't understand, how could they meet again in such a big country like China? He couldn't hide or escape, was he destined to be tied to Gu Xinchi for the rest of his life?

The car stopped, Gu Yanchi opened the door, lowered his voice, and stretched out his hand: "Get out."

Lin Du came back to his senses, dodged Gu Yanchi's hand and got out of the car.

"Where is this place?" Lin Du frowned. Any unfamiliar environment would make him nervous and scared.

Gu Jinchi chuckled and took Lin Du's hand.

Lin Du reflexively tried to dodge, but Gu Yanchi still grabbed his hand.

"Don't be afraid." Gu Nichi stroked Lin Du's fingers, "Come on, I'll take you in to have a look."

Lin Du bit his lips nervously, trying hard to control his trembling body.

"This is the house I bought before. It's not big, but very cozy. Moreover, the environment here is very good and quiet." Gu Yinchi said to himself, looking down at Lin Du from time to time.

Lin Du kept his body tense the whole time, and the mess in his mind made him not listen carefully to what Gu Xinchi said.

He just nodded in agreement in a daze, without raising his eyes from beginning to end.

Gu Pianchi sighed lightly, and Lin Du became alert instantly. He raised his head suddenly, but saw Gu Pianchi shaking his head in pain.

"I...I want to go home."

"Don't you like it here?" Gu Nichi ignored Lin Du's words.

"What?"

Gu Jinchi held up Lin Du's face, and Lin Du leaned back with all his strength. This overly intimate action made him very uncomfortable.

"I'll give this place to you, okay?" Gu Niechi approached, his nose sliding across Lin Du's face and stopping at his ear, "Don't reject me, okay?"

Lin Du was shocked and could hardly believe his ears.

He struggled, but he couldn't get rid of Gu Nishi's restraint: "Let me go! I really want to go home!"

"Why do you keep rejecting me?" Gu Nichi was in unbearable pain. He forcibly carried Lin Du in and closed the door with one hand. "Do you think this yard is beautiful? You can plant flowers here and do what you want here."

"You...you put me down."

"I don't want it!" Gu Nichi childishly brought Lin Du into the room, "Lin Du, let me take care of you, okay?"

Lin Du was so nervous that his breathing stopped. What does it mean to take care of him?

"Ten years ago I said I would take good care of you and always keep you by my side. Now is the time for me to fulfill my promise."

"No!" Lin Du refused.

He doesn't want to go into a boring life anymore. He can't stand any more hardship.

"Why? Do you hate me so much?" Gu Nichi approached Lin Du, his breath hitting his face.

Lin Du turned his face away, not caring about the hot breath that made him feel hot, uncomfortable and had difficulty breathing.

"Lin Du, can you please look at me? Have you really been so cruel for ten years?" Gu Nichi choked up, "Do you really not miss the past at all?"

"No...I don't miss you. I don't miss you." Lin Du pushed Gu Xinchi away with great effort.

The past was so bitter, why should he be nostalgic about it?

He didn't even have time to escape, so how could he linger?

Lin Du leaned against the door, tears flowing uncontrollably. He wiped them away fiercely, clenched his fists, and hated himself for not living up to his expectations.

"Lin Du." Gu Nichi's voice trembled slightly. "At the beginning, I was still young and didn't know how to protect you. But now I have enough ability and will not let you get hurt again. So, please give me another chance, okay?"

Lin Du lowered his eyes in sorrow. Opportunity? Who can give him another chance!

"Don't do this. It makes me uncomfortable." Gu Nichi was about to move closer.

"Don't... don't come over, please don't come over." Lin Du had difficulty breathing, his breath was stuck in his chest, and he was shaking with pain.

"Okay, I won't go over there. You calm down first."

Gu Nichi stopped and looked at Lin Du with gloomy eyes.

He snorted in his heart. Lin Du didn't suffer any loss ten years ago. He just slept with him a few times.

I was quite nice to him at first, and didn’t he get a million in the end?

Why are you pretending to be wronged? Do you really think I will believe him? Ridiculous.
