Gu Xiuwen looked up and was stunned for a moment when he saw Gu Xiuyuan. He moved his lips but didn't know how to greet him.
"Who allowed you to touch her?" Gu Xiuyuan grabbed his wrist tightly.
Gu Xiuwen frowned slightly in pain, "I, I didn't..."
He tried to explain, but gradually retreated his voice under the pressure of Gu Xiuyuan's momentum.
"open."
Ji Shuyu raised her hand and held Gu Xiuyuan's wrist, then spoke quietly.
Gu Xiuyuan was stunned and looked at her in disbelief.
"I said let him go." Ji Shuyu stood up. "If it weren't for him, I would be the one with the broken bones now."
“…”
Gu Xiuyuan's body stiffened violently, and he let go of Gu Xiuwen's hand.
"Xiao Yu." He looked at her with regret, not knowing how to explain that he had failed to protect her.
In fact, he was grateful for saving Gu Xiuwen, but also felt pained.
He watched helplessly as she was rescued by another person without any hesitation. That feeling could not be more painful than being injured.
Ji Shuyu closed her eyes tiredly and didn't want to say a word.
"Come back with me." Gu Xiuyuan grabbed her wrist.
"Brother Xiuwen was injured because of me. I have to stay and take care of him."
"Medical expenses, wards, and nurses will be arranged soon." He held her hand tightly and did not let go, "Come back with me."
"I said I wanted to stay."
"I said come home with me!" Gu Xiuyuan said loudly.
Obviously, he was almost unable to suppress and control his anger.
She ignored him, defended another man in front of him, and even called him brother?
"Xiaoyu, you should go back. I'm fine on my own." Gu Xiuwen advised softly. "You must be very busy these days. Go back and rest up."
Gu Xiuyuan suppressed his anger. It was he who saved Xiaoyu, so he endured it.
"Thank you for saving Xiaoyu. Someone will come to arrange a baby in half an hour." As he said this, he pulled off Ji Shuyu's annoying coat and threw it back to him. Then he put his coat on her shoulders and picked her up.
Ji Shuyu didn't struggle in vain.
From the moment they started planning the banquet, they had been through all sorts of troubles, and after a few days of this, she didn't have any extra strength left, so she just let Gu Xiuyuan carry her out of the hospital and put her in the car.
Bang——
The car door closed.
Ji Shuyu leaned against the car window and closed her eyes tiredly.
Gu Xiuyuan reached out to pull the seat belt, but he clearly felt her shrinking her body to avoid it.
She was avoiding him again.
Gu Xiuyuan used the dim light from the window to look at her exhausted face, his hands clenched and relaxed, but he didn't dare to touch her easily.
He took a deep breath and then said, "You didn't see the fireworks last night. I asked someone to move some back to Yuyuan and then customize them later..."
"No need." Ji Shuyu opened her eyes and looked at him. "Actually, I've never liked fireworks."
But that year, on the way from the orphanage to Gu's house, she was attracted by the sound of fireworks outside the car window, and when she turned around, she saw his profile.
At that time, he rubbed her hair and asked, "Do you want to see it?"
She said, look...
Later, because Su Yan liked fireworks, he would buy more for her every Spring Festival when he returned to the old house to celebrate the New Year.
Su Yan never stopped this habit, so when she said she liked it, she just liked watching it with him.
Gu Xiuyuan looked at her for a moment, wanting to say something, but ultimately didn't speak. Then he sat back and started the car.
The car drove smoothly all the way back to Yuyuan.
When Ji Shuyu got out of the car, she staggered a little. She didn't know if she had strained or twisted her ankle when she fell, but her ankle hurt a lot.
Because we needed more people for the banquet, Auntie Wang had not returned yet, so the house felt a little empty.
As soon as she entered the door, Ji Shuyu took off her shoes.
I was so tired that I had no strength left. I climbed up the stairs with difficulty, holding the handrail. I didn't even want to take a shower. I went straight into the study, pulled out the quilt from the bottom of the bookcase, and lay down on the floor.
She was physically and mentally exhausted from the past few days, and she felt drowsy as soon as she closed her eyes.
Gu Xiuyuan followed her in and frowned when he saw her reaction.
"Ji Shuyu..."
"I don't want to argue with you. I'm really exhausted." She was so tired that she didn't even open her eyes. "Let me sleep for a while, okay?"
Gu Xiuyuan clenched and unclenched his hands, then directly pulled her arm to pick her up and strode back to the bedroom.
She had never been a match for him in terms of strength, so she didn't struggle in vain.
When she was put on the bed, she turned her back, found a comfortable position, and quickly fell asleep. However, in this half-asleep and half-awake state, all the recent events flooded into her dreams.
She slowly curled up into a ball, her hands covering her chest, tears slowly gathered in the corners of her eyes, and then fell into the sheets with a plop.
Buzz——
She seemed to hear the sound of her cell phone vibrating.
Because the things in the dream were too depressing and painful, she tried hard to open her eyes. When she finally struggled out of the dream, she fell directly off the bed.
He fell with a groan.
At this time, it was already daybreak, the other side of the bed was empty, and there was no sound from the bathroom.
It seemed that what she heard was really the vibration of a cell phone, and Gu Xiuyuan must have left after that.
Her mouth was very dry. She rubbed her slightly swollen ankle, then stood up and walked out of the bedroom.
At four or five in the morning, Yuyuan was so quiet that it was a bit depressing.
She walked up the stairs, looking at the place where she had lived for two years and regarded it as her home, and suddenly stopped and sat down in the place where she usually sat in front of the window.
Looking down from here now, I can still seem to see myself busying around foolishly.
For a smile on his face, for him to eat one more bite, I am willing to endure the pain no matter how painful the wound is.
He lowered his eyes to look at the scar on his hand, and finally his gaze fell on the loose ring on his ring finger.
She actually thought that it was inappropriate because she was too thin, so she even painted the inside of her nails with polish.
She chuckled softly, as if laughing at her own stupidity, and gently turned it a few times before pulling her fingers out.
After staring for a while, she took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and slowly released her hand.
bite--
The sound of the ring bouncing on the stairs was like hitting her chest, again and again, so painful that her eyebrows were trembling with pain.
As the rolling sound faded, a tear fell...
Gu Xiuyuan returned to the bedroom from the study and didn't see Ji Shuyu. He was about to go downstairs to look for her, but as soon as he reached the stairs, he saw her throwing the ring out.
"Ji Shuyu!"
A sudden sound behind her startled her.
She wiped away her tears imperceptibly, looked back at Gu Xiuyuan, and then stood up.
"What do you mean?" He grabbed her arm.
She actually...
"It's just a ring, why are you so excited?"
Just a ring?!
Gu Xiuyuan looked at her in disbelief, "What did you say?"
She actually doesn't care.
"Things have come to this point, it's almost over." Ji Shuyu said with a smile. "No matter how much drama there is, it will be over."
Gu Xiuyuan felt his head buzzing. "What do you mean?"
It was clearly her who was deceived and used, so why did he act so unbelievably hurt?
"Didn't you hear everything?" She broke free from his hand.
“…”
"I won't say that again." She took a deep breath. "Since you don't mind your lover being a mistress, then just let it go! After all... you're the one who's being wronged."
"Gu Xiuyuan, from now on, you and I have nothing to do with each other."
