Chapter 296 The Young Lady
When Wang Yuanling was dragged into the house by Gu Zhou without saying a word.
A bit of panic welled up in my heart.
The main reason was that Gu Zhou came here suddenly.
She was really not prepared at all.
"Gu, Mr. Gu."
Gu Zhou didn't even give her a chance to catch her breath.
Bring it directly in.
If she hadn't hurriedly taken off her high heels.
The next second, she put on her shoes and entered the room.
She was taken all the way to the hall.
The wrist was just released.
His shoulders were pressed again and he was forced to sit down.
It was the sofa where she had slept the night before.
Just as soft.
Her consciousness was so soft and messy that it was even harder to focus.
She just stared blankly at Gu Zhou as he returned to the open kitchen, opened the refrigerator, took out a bottle of red wine, and then returned to her.
"Hold it." He handed her the red wine and ordered concisely.
The way he gave orders was so natural, as if it was just a matter of course.
I can’t do anything about Wang Yuanling.
She said politely, not taking the wine: "Mr. Gu, thank you, I really don't care..."
I haven't finished talking yet.
His hands were pulled up and he was forced to hold the cold bottle.
When I was just brought and held tightly.
The pain in her palm was transmitted to her face, and her face wrinkled: "Hmm."
It hurts so much.
Gu Zhou glanced at her.
The big hands still didn't let go, wrapping around her.
Assist her in holding the bottle.
The palms are cold.
The back of my hand was hot.
Ice and fire.
And this scene is really weird.
Their palms were clasped together, holding bottles of…red wine?
Her pain gradually subsided, and the corners of her eyes turned slightly red.
When I looked at him, I felt confused and pitiful.
Gu Zhou pursed his lips and finally explained lazily: "Ice compress can help with the redness and swelling."
"Oh..." she responded softly.
His warm palm wrapped around the back of her hand, and the overly intimate contact made her feel very uncomfortable.
The tip of her ears felt hot, and she whispered, "Mr. Gu, I can do it myself."
Gu Zhou glanced at her with his dark eyes and reminded her, "Hold it tight."
Finally let go.
The warmth dissipated, and a slight coolness followed.
Wang Yuanling curled his fingertips around the bottle, his eyes slightly curved downwards. “Thank you, Mr. Gu.”
Gu Zhou didn't respond.
She just kept holding the bottle with both hands, sitting with her waist straight and legs folded at her sides.
Secretly observing him.
Gu Zhou turned around, picked up the cigarette box lying on the coffee table with his long fingers, pinched it out with familiar movements, and put the cigarette butt between his lips.
His brows were deeply furrowed.
The spade K-carved lighter flew out sparks, scarlet flickering, and blue-gray smoke twisted and climbed up his narrow and sharp eyes.
Like a filter, it blurred the casual face.
In an instant, a sense of unexplored danger was revealed.
When I met the pair of sharp black eyes behind the smoke.
She suddenly realized.
I was caught peeking.
Her scalp was slightly numb, and she resisted the instinctive reaction of looking away. She smiled with her watery eyes: "Sorry, Mr. Gu, I disturbed your rest again tonight."
Gu Zhou slowly exhaled smoke, his expression indifferent, and asked, "Are you going to a social event tonight?"
His voice was very rambling.
The look he gave her wasn't entirely like that.
With focused scrutiny.
It was as if he was certain that he would be able to detect the moment she lied.
Wang Yuanling's eyes turned slightly, and he smiled faintly: "No social engagements."
He flicked the ash with his index finger, and the ashes suddenly fell into the ashtray: "At the company?"
She saw it.
He wanted to get to the bottom of it tonight.
Otherwise I won’t give up.
Her eyes moved slightly, and a thought surged in her heart. She said softly: "I'm going home."
She is still thinking.
How to express it.
He pressed on: "Are there any activities at home?"
She shook her head slightly: "Just go back and eat."
As soon as the words fell.
My stomach suddenly growled.
In a quiet environment.
It became like a bomb.
Wang Yuanling froze, choked slightly, and blushed spread across his fair cheeks.
She didn't eat much tonight.
But it's not time to coo...
It's so embarrassing.
Gu Zhou looked at her with her eyes lowered, embarrassed to look him in the eye.
The corners of his lips curled up, and his voice was faint: "What? What did you do wrong? You didn't even get enough food to eat, and you even hurt your hand."
He was so... terrifyingly perceptive.
She bit her lower lip lightly, her sparkling eyes filled with dissatisfaction: "How did Mr. Gu know that it was my fault?"
Gu Zhou was calm and composed: "Then tell me in detail how your hand got hurt. I will analyze it and give you justice."
Isn't this just setting a trap for her to fall into?
She refused to jump.
She smiled politely, "It's late, I won't disturb Mr. Gu any further."
She leaned over and was about to put the bottle back on the coffee table.
Gu Zhou's voice was cold and contained a hint of coercion: "There is a time limit for ice compresses."
She played dumb, pretending not to hear, her eyes curved: "I feel much better now, no need to apply it anymore."
After she said that, she put the bottle down and let go of her hand.
However, the hand was just about to be withdrawn to the side.
Received half.
Was intercepted by Gu Zhou.
He grasped her hand and exerted a little force.
Wang Yuanling's features were distorted with pain: "Stop, it hurts."
Gu Zhou suddenly let go.
He stared at her and said, "Better now?"
Every word was filled with blatant mockery.
Wang Yuanling's expression was slightly solemn.
The bottle of wine that had just been put down was forced back into Gu Zhou's palm by force.
The coldness came again.
But it does relieve the pain.
Gu Zhou took the cigarette off his lip, took a deep puff, and said lazily: "What era is it now? Do you still like to punish children with physical violence?"
Her eyes dimmed, and she pretended to be indifferent: "It's normal, every family has different rules."
Gu Zhou snorted softly, "Wang Yaozu was also beaten like this?"
She didn't say a word.
Gu Zhou sneered: "So your family rules are only for you?"
Her expression changed.
There's no way to refute that.
It is indeed true.
She looked gloomy, with her long eyelashes drooping, staring at the floor, not knowing what to think.
Gu Zhou extinguished his cigarette with force and asked in a leisurely voice, "What do you want to eat?"
Her long eyelashes suddenly raised, and her moist pupils were filled with surprise.
Gu Zhou's lips curled up into a melodious arc: "It just so happens that I'm hungry too."
"Thank you, I don't want to eat." She said softly.
Gu Zhou raised his eyebrows: "Who said today that they would treat me to a high-end meal? I want to eat now, so please treat me now."
Wang Yuanling choked.
She really didn't expect that he was waiting for her here.
But when she brought it up today, he remained silent.
But now I regret it.
Gu Zhou suppressed her expression and said slowly: "Why, you don't want to treat me?"
"no……"
But he became very easy to talk to: "If you don't want to treat me, then don't treat me. Can I treat you?"
Does it make any difference?
The floor lamp next to him cast a honey-colored halo, which cut diagonally across the lazy folds created by the bathrobe belt at his waist.
Even when he wore a crisp suit, he couldn't hide his casual demeanor.
Now in a soft bathrobe.
Laziness is simply indulged, and a domineering atmosphere pervades the entire house.
He crossed his arms and drawled, "I say."
Wang Yuanling looked at him blankly.
"I asked you to treat me but you refused, and I treated you but you still refused. Excuse me, Miss, how did I offend you? Why are you so disrespectful?"
He emphasized the pronunciation of the three words "Miss".
The extremely lazy tone carries an indescribable meaning.
She heard two flames rising from her earlobes, burning all the way to the tips of her ears.
It's so hot.
