"Will you stay here?" he asked. "I promise not to do anything you don't like."
"I just want to be with you..." He said, nuzzling her shoulder.
Ji Shuyu nodded, "Okay."
She could feel his fear and uneasiness, and she knew why he was afraid.
"Xiuyuan, thank you for your hard work over the years..."
Ji Shuyu patted his back gently.
Gu Xiuyuan's body stiffened when he heard this, and his heart was instantly filled with bitterness and grievance.
After a moment, he chuckled softly: "Little girl, if you say these words again... I'm afraid I will break my promise..."
He said so, but he didn't do anything excessive. He just hugged her a little tighter.
…
In the bedroom, Gu Xiuyuan hugged Ji Shuyu. Half asleep and half awake, he dreamed that the syringe pierced into her body.
He shuddered violently and woke up from his dream.
Seeing the little woman sleeping in his arms, he breathed a sigh of relief.
On the table, the phone lit up.
Looking at the message, he gently stood up and went to answer the call.
"Have you found out?" Gu Xiuyuan's steady voice was filled with a bone-chilling chill.
"yes!"
Answer from the other side.
"And the contents of the syringe have been confirmed to be a type of drug."
Gu Xiuyuan held the phone tightly, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"Keep an eye on him. I have something else to ask him."
When Ji Shuyu woke up, she didn't see Gu Xiuyuan. When she came out of the bedroom, she saw him making a phone call with a very unhappy expression.
"Why are you up?"
Gu Xiuyuan hung up the phone and came forward, "Did you have a nightmare?"
Ji Shuyu shook her head, "No."
"So you came to see me?" He suddenly smiled, then rubbed her slightly sweaty hair, "Everything will be fine from now on." He gently held her in his arms.
"Xiuyuan, are you..."
"No." Knowing what she meant, he interrupted softly, "I will never hide anything from you in the future."
Ji Shuyu chuckled and complained silently in her heart: No way.
"You said you had something to deal with. Did you resolve it smoothly?"
"It's not really a big deal," he said softly.
Ji Shuyu had a hunch that what he did was either related to the Gu family or to Gu Xiu.
Three years ago, Gu Xiu planned such a vicious thing, and then maliciously provoked their relationship.
"Xiuyuan, no matter what he has done, I don't want you to risk yourself."
"Silly girl, what are you thinking about?" Gu Xiuyuan tapped her forehead lightly, "I won't put myself in danger for that kind of person."
Evil people will be punished by other evil people.
There are many ways to deal with this kind of person...
…
The next day,
When Ji Shuyu walked into the studio, two young girls were gathered together gossiping.
As soon as he saw Ji Shuyu coming, he immediately hid his phone behind his back.
"What's wrong?" she laughed.
She asked herself if she was not a strict boss, so how could she
Ada looked at it and said, "Director, you don't know yet?"
Ji Shuyu shook her head. Ada immediately found the news.
"Last night, there was an accident involving falling objects from a high altitude in Area A."
Objects falling from high altitudes, this doesn't seem to be a new thing! But Ji Shu saw that their expressions were a little strange, so he took out his phone to check.
The incident occurred at a well-known "nightclub". The air conditioner outdoor unit fell down and hit a car parked downstairs.
Judging from the picture, the entire front of the car was smashed, and that car... belonged to Huo Yujia.
There are also various colored edge ornaments attached below the ornament.
It is said that just before the incident, two people got out of the car, and someone described the scene in the car in a vivid and detailed manner.
It is said that the accident happened 'afterwards'. When Huo Yujia was dragged out of the car, he was naked, and the marks on his body were unbearable to look at.
"I heard Huo Yujia is still in danger," Ada said, "but compared to this accident, everyone seems to be more concerned about those scandalous rumors."
This was not the first time Huo Yujia had played a group game.
Huo Zhengfeng supported her but never treated her as a human being. She appeared obedient and fearful on the surface, but he was having a lot of fun behind her back.
However, she had a feeling that this... was not an accident.
"Okay, let's get started!" Ji Shuyu said, "Everyone has worked hard during this period. It's the same old routine at the end of the month."
Ji Shuyu has always been generous to his subordinates, arranging dinners every month or providing other benefits to his colleagues.
"Thank you, Director."
Ji Shuyu returned to the office and called Gu Xiuyuan but no one answered.
…
At this time, Huo Shaoqian was sitting opposite Gu Xiuyuan.
That kind of scrutinizing gaze seemed to have penetrating power.
Due to his status as brother-in-law, Gu Xiuyuan made coffee himself, but this did not seem to make Huo Shaoqian look much better.
"Gu Xiuyuan, you really are quite capable." Huo Shaoqian smiled indifferently, "You've placed people around us!"
He couldn't imagine that there were Gu Xiuyuan's people among the bodyguards, even Ada.
Gu Xiuyuan was not surprised that he knew that he had arranged someone.
The Huo family's driver was knocked unconscious and tied up in the bathroom. Although he said not to alarm the Huo family, he definitely couldn't hide it from Huo Shaoqian.
"To say that I'm being placed there is a bit too serious. I just want to better protect and take care of Xiaoyu."
Gu Xiuyuan smiled, then took out a candy and put it into his mouth, and asked him if he wanted one.
This is a good way to relieve stress when you don’t have cigarettes to smoke.
Huo Shaoqian didn't move, just looked at him.
Even though she was dissatisfied, she couldn't deny that he had arrived in time to protect her sister. She even relied on him last time...
On the coffee table, Gu Xiuyuan's cell phone rang again. Huo Shaoqian's face turned unhappy when he saw the word "wife".
"Sorry, I have to answer the phone, otherwise Xiaoyu Xiaoyu will be worried."
“!!”
Huo Shaoqian was speechless. Was he showing off to him?
That's his sister, they are blood relatives!
Gu Xiuyuan walked away and Huo Shaoqian looked over.
I was originally dissatisfied, but at this moment, I vaguely felt that this back figure... looked familiar.
Gu Xiuyuan picked up the phone and asked, "You miss me right after we separated?"
The moment he spoke, he was speaking in a frivolous manner, and suddenly there was no sound from the other end.
Gu Xiuyuan's lips curled up triumphantly, "I was preparing ingredients for dinner and didn't hear the phone call just now. What happened?"
His tone sounded natural, and Ji Shuyu knew that she couldn't get anything out of him over the phone.
"Nothing, let's talk about it when we get home tonight!"
"good."
Gu Xiuyuan keenly caught the word "return" and his mood instantly improved.
He knew that what she wanted to ask about was Huo Yujia, but that woman was responsible for her own actions and it had nothing to do with others.
In the living room, Huo Shaoqian looked at Gu Xiuyuan. Although he was unhappy, he still made a phone call.
When Gu Xiuyuan came back, he heard Huo Shaoqian's "aftermath" call. Although he didn't need it, he was happy to accept this kindness.
He thought this was a good sign, but after hanging up the phone, Huo Shaoqian's expression was still sullen...
