Gu Xiuyuan frowned, looking impatient and telling him to speak up quickly.
"Do you want to listen or not?" Qin Chuan waited for him to speak.
He wanted to know, did he still have to take the initiative?
"Are you itching for trouble?" Gu Xiuyuan glanced at him, his tone so calm that there was not a single inflection.
Cough~
I have to say, the threat worked.
Among the brothers, Fu Shengkai was the best fighter and Gu Xiuyuan was no match for him; Mu Bai was a doctor and his hands were used to hold scalpels, so he naturally couldn't accompany him, so he tragically died the one who was beaten by Gu Xiuyuan.
What a sin.
"I heard that Zhao's boat was detained." Qin Chuan poured himself a glass of wine and leaned back on the sofa. "Did you hire someone to do this?"
"So?" He rolled his eyes.
"Original, he fell over at my place and I thought it was you." Qin Chuan was rarely serious.
The man surnamed Zhao had ulterior motives towards Ji Shuyu, and he knew that his good brother would not let it go.
He thought it was Gu Xiuyuan who caused the "accident" in the bathroom, so he offered compensation without blinking.
If he seized the Zhao family’s goods, then the “fall” in the bathroom would obviously have nothing to do with him.
So, here comes the question!
"Since it wasn't you, who do you think is responsible for causing that old man to suffer so much that he didn't even dare to speak?"
Gu Xiuyuan looked at Qin Chuan, and he raised his eyebrows, indicating that every word he said was true.
"It can't be that he really slipped!" Qin Chuan shook the wine glass.
"So, you know who it is?" Gu Xiuyuan frowned.
From what he said, the person behind this is doing it for that little girl?
"I don't know, I just came to remind you." Qin Chuan smiled and drank the wine.
He didn't see anything in the hotel, but after talking to Gu Xiuyuan on the phone that day, he saw a car.
It was a very familiar car, but he didn't think it was a good match.
…
Ji Shuyu woke up in a daze.
Her lips were dry and painful, so she instinctively stuck out her tongue to moisten them, but the process of opening her mouth opened a wound, and the taste of blood filled her mouth, and she woke up instantly.
Gu Xiuyuan did not return home all night, and when it was almost dawn, the atmosphere was depressing and lonely.
She took a deep breath and didn't let herself indulge in this emotion.
Since we agree on non-interference, he is free to do whatever he wants.
She quickly got up, changed into her shower clothes, and wanted to be in her best condition on her first day.
There were four people in the studio, including her. In addition to the designer who had received her before, there was also a designer's assistant and a skilled craftsman.
He told her a lot of things, and Ji Shuyu listened attentively. When she was really busy, time always passed quickly.
When it was time to get off work, she didn't want to go home so soon, but she was a new employee on probation, and no one would like her if she was too active.
After having dinner outside, it was dark when we returned to Yuyuan.
She walked into the yard and Gu Xiuyuan's car just stopped.
Zhou Rui opened the car door, and every move he made was cautious.
It seems that their big boss, Tian Tian, is not in a good mood.
"Ms. Ji." Zhou Rui nodded.
"Assistant Zhou." She smiled gently back.
Yuan Yu was just greeting Gu Xiuyuan as usual, but he frowned.
"What did you call her?"
Zhou Rui was very careful all day, but he didn't expect that he would step on a landmine at the last minute.
But, hasn’t it been called that all these years?
"Young Madam."
Ji Shuyu suddenly laughed after hearing this, and then looked at Gu Xiuyuan strangely.
She has been calling him for so long and she doesn't care anymore, so why is he getting upset instead?
"It's okay, Assistant Zhou, just call me Miss Ji so that everyone won't be uncomfortable." She said and walked in.
Zhou Rui swallowed silently, as if he understood the reason why Boss Tian was in a low mood.
Her ankle was a little painful, so Ji Shuyu walked slowly, always on guard against the man rushing up to pull her again, but there was no sound behind her for a long time, so she finally felt relieved.
"Miss." Aunt Liu came forward to greet her when she saw her return. "How was your day? Did everything go well?"
"Yeah, it's fine!" she nodded. "My colleagues are all very nice."
"That's good, that's good." Aunt Liu smiled and nodded. "I sent food to Mr. Gu this morning as you instructed. He's recovering well, so you don't have to worry."
"Then I'll thank you for your hard work these few days."
"It's all my responsibility," Aunt Liu said. "Just focus on your work and leave the hospital to me."
If Mr. Gu hadn't saved the young lady, she really couldn't imagine the consequences. Even the old lady went to the hospital to take a look.
"I'll make the soup in a minute and send it to Mr. Gu tomorrow morning. Miss, go upstairs and get some rest!"
"good."
When Gu Xiuyuan walked to the door, Ji Shuyu had already gone upstairs.
"gentlemen."
Looking at his slow movements, Aunt Liu felt something was strange, but she couldn't tell what was strange.
Gu Xiuyuan responded and went upstairs. When he reached the top of the stairs, he turned his head slightly and said, "From now on, call me Madam."
Because she was sent by his grandmother, he had never bothered about the title of "Miss". However, when he heard Zhou Rui call her that one day, he suddenly realized that her identity had never been "recognized" for so long.
Ji Shuyu walked upstairs and heard this and just found it funny.
In a marriage full of profit and deception, what can a title change?
If she doesn't even want this relationship, would she care about an "empty title"?
…
Ji Shuyu wanted to devote herself to her work, but the ineffective busyness made her more upset and anxious.
After trying to calm down several times but still unable to do so, she went downstairs to pour herself a glass of water.
When I came back, I ran into Gu Xiuyuan coming out of the study.
There was a distance between the two of them. They looked at each other but didn't say anything. Gu Xiuyuan went into the bedroom first.
Ji Shuyu tightened her grip on the water cup.
Then she chuckled.
What's there to be sad about? Isn't it good? Thinking of this, she lowered her head and slowly walked back to her small study.
In the bedroom, the moment the door was closed, Gu Xiuyuan couldn't help but let out a light breath.
He turned his head slightly to look at his back, his brows furrowed in pain.
He slowly took off his coat and walked into the bathroom. The moment the water hit the wound, he shuddered in pain, and even his tiredness was instantly driven away.
Looking at the wound on his hand, he remembered the time when the little girl was burned but no one noticed.
She must have felt even more pain at that time!
"You really have no conscience." He smiled bitterly.
If you say you don't care about him, then you really won't even look at him.
After taking a quick shower, he remembered what Qin Chuan said.
His meaning was very clear, someone had taken the initiative to teach the man surnamed Zhao a lesson in the bathroom.
For some reason, he suddenly remembered the tie he had worn before.
But the silver mark didn't represent a level high enough to force the Zhao family to swallow their anger. So who was the man behind it?
"Zhou Rui, check something for me."
…
Ji Shuyu was busy until midnight before returning to the guest room to rest. When she passed the bedroom door, she suddenly heard a bang from inside, accompanied by a faint broken groan...
