When Gu Xiuyuan received the message from Ji Shuyu, he was sitting with He Yanyu.
He never thought that he and he would have a day to drink tea face to face.
In the past, it was because of the conflict in the circle, and later... it was because of Xiaoyu.
"Do you have something to talk to me about?" He Yan's attitude was not good when facing Gu Xiuyuan.
"If I say it's to express my gratitude, then it seems a little informal."
Gu Xiuyuan said as he poured him a cup of tea.
"If you want to thank me, then there's no need. Everything I do has nothing to do with you."
"But no matter what, I want to thank you."
Gu Xiuyuan's attitude was serious, and there was no hint of showing off or provocation in it, but it still sounded a bit harsh to He Yanyu, because it was not justified and it was not as it should be.
"Thank you." Gu Xiuyuan said solemnly.
If it weren't for him this time, Xiaoyu and the baby would really be in danger.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he was He Yan's father. Xiaoyu had been in danger so many times, all thanks to him.
"If you need any help in the future, you can tell me..."
"I told you, I didn't do those things for you." He Yan raised his eyes, "You can just tell me your intentions."
The two people did not have a friendly relationship, and Gu Xiuyuan did not care about his attitude.
"I asked you out today because I have something else to ask you." Gu Xiuyuan looked at him. "Last time you said Xiaoyu took hallucinogenic drugs. How much do you know about that?"
He Yanyu raised his eyes.
"It's my personal problem." Gu Xiuyuan added.
This time, he had lost his memory due to the injury. He learned from the hospital that Huo Yuxuan had instructed the doctor to give him a certain medicine. This reminded him of what happened to Xiaoyu a while ago.
So he was wondering whether the previous incident was related to Huo Yuxuan.
"I heard it's a new drug in the research and development stage, something that shouldn't be seen in public. How could it be easily discovered?"
He Yanyu looked at him.
If I remember correctly...
The last time Xiaoyu got into trouble, it was when the scandal between him and the Huo family was spreading like wildfire!
"Boss, I'll give you the information I know."
Hearing what he wanted to hear, Gu Xiuyuan stood up and said, "Thank you."
Before leaving, she glanced at him again and said, "I still say the same thing. If you need any help, feel free to come to me. As long as I can do it, I will never refuse..."
…
Xizi Bay
When Gu Xiuyuan arrived home, Ji Shuyu was sitting on the sofa in a daze, and didn't even notice he was coming.
Looking at the little girl who was happy when she went out but became depressed later, Gu Xiuyuan walked over.
"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
Ji Shuyu was stunned, then shook his head.
"Nothing." She shook her head, as if she didn't want to talk about it anymore. "How about you? Are things going well at the company?"
"Not bad." He stretched out his arms and put his arm around her. "But tomorrow might be a bit busy, so..."
"It's okay, Auntie will be here soon! I can take care of myself."
When she said this, Gu Xiuyuan was almost laughed out of anger.
"Mrs. Gu, don't you even ask me what's going on?" Gu Xiuyuan was slightly dissatisfied.
"So what are you going to do tomorrow?" she asked.
"Oh, suddenly I don't want to tell you anymore." After saying that, he chuckled.
When her fist came towards him, he grabbed her wrist, held it in his hand, and then leaned close to her lips and kissed her.
"Are you hungry?"
Ji Shuyu shook her head. "I ate a lot of delicious food with Aunt Lu today. I'm very full."
"When did you meet Aunt Lu? Why haven't I heard you mention her?"
He had wanted to ask earlier in the morning, and his face lit up with smiles as soon as he saw the message. He had never seen her be so affectionate with anyone before.
"Well, we met once when we were on vacation. She was the lady who said I was a good painter. I met her again in City A later." Ji Shuyu said, "Her name is Lu Qingyi."
cough!
"Who?" Gu Xiuyuan thought he had misheard.
"What's wrong?" Ji Shuyu was puzzled.
"Oh, it's okay." He smiled.
He was just shocked that Xiaoyu was so familiar with Mrs. Huo.
Thinking of her, Gu Xiuyuan thought of Huo Yuxuan again, and suddenly felt a headache and anger.
"Xiuyuan, what's wrong?"
"It's okay." He ruffled her hair. "If you want to go somewhere in the future, just tell me and I'll go with you."
Ji Shuyu nodded, then leaned over and hugged him, "But where are you going tomorrow? Will it take a long time?"
"No." He felt sorry for her anxiety and hurried to comfort her, but he didn't tell her where he was going. Instead, he smiled mysteriously.
Ji Shuyu became more and more curious and was about to ask, but was interrupted by his phone call.
Gu Xiuyuan walked aside to answer the phone. It was his lawyer calling.
The distance was not close, but Ji Shuyu still heard Xia Mei's name.
After the fire broke out and she realized it was not an accident, the first person she thought of was Xia Mei.
For a moment, she didn't know how to deal with it.
What surprised her was that before she could figure out what to say, he had already taken action.
To be honest, she was shocked.
No matter what, that person is his mother, and such a decision must be very difficult for him.
She felt sorry for his predicament, but she couldn't pretend nothing had happened.
Gu Xiuyuan hung up the phone and came back. Seeing her with her head down and not saying a word, he hugged her gently.
"This is a criminal case, not something we can influence."
This incident has attracted a lot of attention online, and due to its serious nature, it is destined not to be resolved easily.
Ji Shuyu didn't feel much better after hearing this.
Although she said that, she still felt a little uncomfortable, uncomfortable for Gu Xiuyuan.
"Why do you look like that?" Gu Xiuyuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "It wasn't you or me who caused this. You don't need to feel sad for me or even blame yourself."
"Xiaoyu, you are the victim."
Ji Shuyu listened and hugged him tightly. She understood the truth, but she couldn't control her heartache for her lover.
She just felt sorry for him.
"Silly!" Gu Xiuyuan laughed, "Actually, from childhood to adulthood, you and grandma are the only ones I have."
Whether it's father or mother, it's just... a blood relationship.
"What a coincidence, me too," she said, her eyes suddenly curved with a smile. "But now we have a baby," she said, taking his hand and placing it on her belly. "Xiuyuan, the baby and I will always be with you."
I don't know if it sensed something or understood what they were saying, but the baby in my belly suddenly moved.
Gu Xiuyuan's eyes were a little hot, "I will also protect you well."
At all costs...
"But where are you going tomorrow?" Ji Shuyu suddenly remembered the question she had been interrupted by, and pouted, "Mr. Gu, we just got the marriage certificate, and you're already keeping secrets from me!"
Gu Xiuyuan nuzzled the tip of her nose and said, "You'll know tomorrow."
…
The night is dark
The heavy curtains blocked out the light from outside.
Huo Yuxuan sat on the bed, looking at the messages on her phone with a smile.
In the pitch-black environment, that smile looked a little eerie.
tomorrow?
Oh……
Ji Shuyu, tomorrow I will ruin your reputation...
