Ji Shuyu pushed Gu Xiuyuan away and looked at the aunt at the door.
"Go ahead." Auntie looked at the two of them and said awkwardly, "There's a phone number downstairs."
Gu Xiuyuan's expression changed. "Who's calling?"
"Yes, Madam, asking you and the young lady to go home." Looking at the aunt's face, I knew something was wrong.
"Tell her there's no time."
Looking at Ji Shuyu who started to put away the drawings, he felt helpless for a moment, then held her hand and said, "You need to rest now."
"I'm not tired..."
"Aren't you tired?"
His three words instantly reminded her of that crazy night.
She covered her lower abdomen, still feeling scared.
Seeing that she was obedient, Gu Xiuyuan pulled her back to the room.
"Don't think about anything now." He pushed her back onto the bed. "I will definitely do what I promised..."
Ji Shuyu didn't respond, but she would never believe such words again.
…
Gu
After Gu Xiuyuan finished his meeting, the guards assigned to protect Ji Shuyu came to report on their work. He never asked them about Ji Shuyu's whereabouts, so they only needed to report if there were any suspicious circumstances.
"Okay, I understand!" Gu Xiuyuan rubbed his brow. "Observe for two more days. If there are no special circumstances, you can withdraw."
She didn't like being followed, she thought he was monitoring her. If there was really no danger, he didn't want to make her angry or cause her to misunderstand.
"Yes." The guard nodded and put a box on the table.
"What's this?"
Gu Xiuyuan opened it, and inside was a pair of cufflinks. Suddenly a card fell out, To: Gu
That beautiful handwriting is Ji Shuyu's.
Gu Xiuyuan's heart suddenly skipped a beat and he sat up straight.
He looked up.
"Miss Ji picked it up from a boutique custom shop yesterday."
He hesitated, not sure whether he should say that he picked it up from the trash can.
"How did it end up in your hands?"
The guard choked for a moment, then said, "Maybe Miss Ji dropped it accidentally. I'll ask the person on duty yesterday about it later."
Lose?
Haha, actually it was thrown away!
This girl, he laughed helplessly.
He remembered this pattern; it was on the blueprint for her study. He also remembered how cautious she had been that day, not wanting him to see her. He also remembered… how she had played a prank on him when she said her salary was low and asked him to wait.
It turned out that she didn't forget him, but wanted to give him more precious love.
My mood, which had been gloomy for a few days, suddenly became lighter...
After feeling better, I was immediately filled with self-blame, blaming myself for being so indiscriminate and saying and doing things that hurt her.
"Okay, I understand."
Feeling guilty, he canceled the appointment and went back to Yuyuan.
He had wronged her and should have apologized properly, but he didn't know how to express his apology.
It was not yet noon when he returned to Yuyuan. He thought she was still sleeping or busy with the design draft, but he didn't expect her aunt to say that she had received a phone call and went out.
…
Ji Shuyu thought that since Gu Xiuyuan had rejected the call in the morning, Xia Mei would contact her soon, but she didn't expect that it would be Gu Bin who would contact her first.
His face wasn't looking good, and it was only after hearing him talk that Ji Shuyu realized how widespread the recent rumors had become. No wonder Ranran had asked about it, seeming hesitant to speak. No wonder Gu Xiuyuan was so puzzled.
"Dad, He Xianbei only saved me once. We are not familiar with each other, and it's not like what the rumors say."
It is indeed not good for a married person like her to hear such things, but isn't it a bit strange for a father-in-law to talk about this with his daughter-in-law?
Gu Bin looked at Ji Shuyu with some anger in his eyes, as if she had really done something.
Ji Shuyu thought he had disliked her from the beginning, so she just gave a simple explanation. But he himself was a traitor to his family, so what right did he have to blame her?
He seemed to be even angrier than Gu Xiuyuan at this moment.
Ji Shuyu suddenly felt that she and Xia Mei had a mutual sympathy. She didn't know which was more disgusting, mental or physical infidelity...
Oh, maybe it was the man in front of her whom she should respectfully call "Dad" because he was unfaithful both mentally and physically.
Gu Bin had been in the business world for decades, so how could he not see through a child's mind? Being looked at like this by a junior, he felt that this was another failure of his own.
"Xiao Yu, my Gu family... treats you well, right?"
Ji Shuyu's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
"Of course." She looked up. "The Gu family raised me for more than a decade. I will always remember this kindness."
Under the table, her hands clenched quietly.
"Do you have anything to say?"
"I only have Xiuyuan..." He paused, then coughed. "I'm Xiuyuan's father. He's been having a hard time these days because of his mother."
Ji Shuyu understood instantly, because the person he loved was Su Yan, and because of Xia Mei's paranoia, he couldn't get the love he wanted, so he was very miserable.
"You, do you want me to leave Xiuyuan?" Ji Shuyu tried to understand his meaning.
Gu Bin did not respond, but did not deny it either.
Oh……
Suddenly, a sneer sounded in my ears.
Ji Shuyu heard the voice and turned around, and it was Gu Xiuyuan.
Gu Xiuyuan looked at his father, "If I heard correctly, are you hinting that she should divorce me?"
Gu Bin remained calm, as if he didn't mind being heard at all.
"You are really my biological father!" Gu Xiuyuan laughed angrily. "Actually, you two picked me up!"
One of them drove Su Yan away, and the other came to ask his wife to divorce him.
"Why do you all want to sacrifice me to make up for your own regrets?"
Gu Bin listened, his face darkening instantly. "Gu Xiuyuan..."
"I've already told you that you don't need to get involved in our affairs." He pulled Ji Shuyu over. "From now on, you and my mother should not look for her again."
"Oh, I've already sent Su Yan away. You don't have to worry about these things from now on."
Gu Xiuyuan angrily pulled Ji Shuyu out, and she could hardly keep up with him.
On the way back to Yuyuan, his face was particularly gloomy.
Ji Shuyu didn't know why he was angry, but she was still a little shocked that the word "Su Yan" had been sent away.
Gu Xiuyuan was upset, but when he turned around and saw her haggard look that couldn't be concealed even by her makeup, he swallowed his words back.
'If I don't come, what will your response be?'
He wanted to ask this question, but was afraid of hearing an answer he couldn't accept.
"From now on, except for grandma's calls, you can ignore everyone else's."
"Aren't you in the company?" Ji Shuyu looked at him, not understanding why he showed up.
Seeing the suspicion in her eyes, Gu Xiuyuan felt a little sad.
If it were in the past, she would have been delighted by his appearance, but now her first doubt was: why did he know she was here.
"I've already told those people to leave." He explained, noticing the questioning look in her eyes. "They said you dropped something, so they came to see if it was yours."
His voice was unusually gentle, and it wasn't until he took her hand in his that she saw the pair of cufflinks on his cuffs.
She was shocked. Wasn’t she thrown away by her?
When she first went to order it, she was so excited that she wrote the card right away. She thought about how she would feel when she gave it to him, but now...
Seeing what she was thinking, Gu Xiuyuan held her hand.
He wanted to say that this was the most precious gift he had ever received and he would treasure it for the rest of his life.
But at this moment, I remembered He Yanyu's words "priceless"...
While he was stunned, Ji Shuyu had already pulled her hand away.
The reaction is indeed very dull!
Noticing that she was in a bad mood, Gu Xiuyuan was about to explain, but at this moment, the driver suddenly slammed on the brakes.
Then there was a violent collision from behind, bang -
