At most, he would say "Oh" with amusement, and then say, "Your father may have more say than me in the matter of custody. If you talk to him, he might really be jealous."
In an instant, Gou An felt that he was talking to a deaf person.
But it didn't matter. Such a shocking thing as "He Jinxing being jealous" was impossible to happen. He couldn't ask such an outrageous question. It was just that she had too much contact with He Jinxing recently, and some strange thoughts had arisen in her heart, and she was a little uncertain.
Compared to He Jinxing's complete confusion, Gou An calmly digested his possessiveness towards this elder after struggling and hesitating at the beginning.
It's really no big deal.
Just like when Jiaojiao was still alive, if it dared to squat on Gou Xun's legs obediently instead of eating cat strips, it would definitely be caught by Gou An and taught a lesson.
It's true.
It wasn't her fault. It was the dog that first stuck its dirty head out of the torn cardboard box and rubbed against her.
【Jiao Jiao: I was just a hungry and cold one-month-old kitten at that time, how could I understand what I was doing! 】
【Jiao Jiao: You are really perverted. 】
The perverted Miss Gou was born with a strong sense of territory. Like a small animal, she liked to rub her own scent on anyone, anything, or anything around her, and then claim it as her own...
He Jinxing should be one of them.
But he had no idea that he was being rubbed...
Of course, people don’t need to have it.
He continued to do his own thing, and she had no idea what he would do next, or what his purpose was.
Gou An was not very happy with this feeling of being unable to grasp something, as if his feet were stepping on something, but he always felt like he was suspended in mid-air.
She carried the stuffed bear to Zhou Yutong's cabin and placed the bear on her bed.
Then she took a photo of the plush bear sitting on Zhou Yutong's pillow with her mobile phone and sent it to He Jinxing, saying somewhat deliberately, "I gave this bear to Zhou Yutong, she likes it very much, thank you, uncle."
Holding the phone, she imagined all the possible reactions that He Jinxing would have after accepting her little provocation, but she didn't expect the other party to respond so calmly.
[HJX: It's yours after I give it to you. It's your freedom to do whatever you want with it.]
The emotions are so stable that it seems like there are no emotions at all.
Gou An put away his phone while cursing.
【Jiao Jiao: You have changed. 】
[Jiao Jiao: When you first woke up and saw He Jinxing, you wanted to take a detour three blocks to avoid him.]
[Jiao Jiao: Now... you are too embarrassed to watch. How many times have you provoked him since you boarded the ship? ]
Gou An herself hadn't counted. Anyway, no matter how many times she had offended He Jinxing so far, he was still talking to her on WeChat in a normal tone, and she didn't lose any limbs -
As long as what she did was not so outrageous, He Jinxing could not throw her into jail just because of these trivial things.
Gou An suddenly had a strange thought: In the original storyline, did I offend him one thing after another and then make him hate me? [Jiao Jiao: No, in the original storyline, it was just because you were noisy all day, so he thought you were annoying, right? ]
[Jiao Jiao: And now, you are swinging on He Jinxing’s neck——]
【Jiao Jiao: He hasn't killed you yet, that's good enough. 】
Zhou Yutong really liked the plush bear. She didn't frown and resist it despite the twists and turns in its origin. Instead, she held it and walked around the city the moment she got it.
"Little Bear, you give me a reason to hate him." Zhou Yutong kissed the bear's nose. "Just because that bastard Chen Jinli once tried to take him away and give him to another woman, should I dislike him? No, it's not Little Bear's fault that men are dogs! What's more, it was Uncle Butt who got him in the end!"
As they walked towards the banquet hall, Zhou Yutong chattered non-stop, "So finally Uncle Butt gave it to you, early in the morning... hmm, I imagined him with one hand in his pocket, coming to your cabin door in the early morning sun, bending down and gently placing the bear in front of your door while you were snoring, with the first ray of sunlight shining on his profile -"
Gou An: “…”
Zhou Yutong: "I am a fan of Uncle Butt again."
Ye Lang couldn't help but say, "It rained this morning."
Where does the sun come from?
As soon as he said this, the two people walking in front of him both looked back at him. Faced with such disgusted looks, he did not feel embarrassed at all. "I also put the bear at the door because I had to check if there were any dangerous items and cameras. He just handed it to me."
Gou An: “…”
Zhou Yutong sighed: "Mr. Bodyguard, you are so handsome, it's a pity that you are not a mute."
Ye Lang: “…”
While the three were talking, they pushed open the door of the banquet hall and heard melodious piano sounds coming from afar.
Zhou Yutong muttered, "Who is that? He plays the piano really well." Gou An heard the stupid cat meowing in her mind. This awkward laughter made her guess who was playing the piano before she even got close to the piano.
Sure enough, as soon as he walked into the center of the banquet hall, Gou An felt the ambiguity in the air.
The male second-generation rich kids were as restless as animals in spring. Although most of them were talking and eating, that did not stop most of them from unconsciously glancing over to the Steinway in the corner every minute.
Sitting in front of the piano, the naturally beautiful heroine Lu Wan was wearing a white little dress. The dress looked like it was not rented by Gou Xun but Lu Wan's own.
The tailoring is not so sophisticated, but the waist is conservative from the front, and the back has a bold backless design, showing her thin back and butterfly bones...
The straps are covered with transparent tulle at the shoulders——
Just like Mount Olympus, a goddess walking slowly under the burning sacred fire.
This was the evaluation given by an unknown second-generation rich guy next to him. It was probably the product of the original author's poor writing style. Gou An rolled his eyes.
"Didn't they say her family has no money?" Zhou Yutong asked blankly, "Why would she play the piano if she has no money?"
Gou An didn't know, the original line is a domineering president's story, the heroine always has all kinds of strange skills, selling wine in the bar, playing the piano in the western restaurant, tutoring the youngest son of the chaebol family, etc., those are the basic plots -
When she first heard that the little whale that He Jinxing got for her was the winning entry of a design competition, she was scared to death. She investigated the winner and confirmed that the winner was a well-known, experienced and somewhat older female designer in the industry. Only then did she feel relieved.
All in all, the heroine is very powerful. Once you accept this setting, it would seem rather KY to ask her where she learned piano when she had no money.
"Grandma Li downstairs was a piano teacher in the early years." Ye Lang thought for a moment and said, "It seems that she has an old piano at home."
Zhou Yutong blinked blankly, and Gou An almost laughed out loud: "Yeah, I'm not surprised that someone who can make nuclear bombs appeared downstairs from your house."
Ye Lang thought she was mocking him and frowned: "Really."
Gou An looked indifferent.
At this time, after Lu Wan finished singing a song, some people who had nothing better to do came up to talk to him. Among them was the idiot from the Xu family who had failed to talk to Gou An before. While talking, he had already handed over more than two glasses of wine.
Lu Wan wanted to refuse but didn't dare. The smile on her face gradually froze. It was obvious that she couldn't drink very well. After two glasses of wine, her face was already flushed.
The idiot from the Xu family saw this, and his cheeks were filled with joy, and he took the third cup of wine from the servant. It was Sima Zhao's intention.
The people around knew what this guy wanted to do, but Lu Wan looked unfamiliar, so she shouldn't be a daughter of some rich family. The Xu family had just established itself in Jiangcheng recently and was flourishing, so even if the second-generation rich people present knew that this was a good opportunity to hunt for beauties -
But right now, no one is willing to offend the Xu family for a beauty of unknown origin.
So when Lu Wan took the third glass of wine, no one stepped forward to stop him.
[Jiao Jiao: It’s not a big problem. Although the second-generation rich men here are all snobbish, this place is obviously set up to wait for the male protagonist and the male supporting actors to be the heroes and save the beauty. ]
The truth is that this is correct. When Gou An heard the male protagonist, he pricked up his ears and immediately found He Jinxing in the corner of the banquet hall——
The man was not wearing formal clothes today, but casual clothes. He was leaning on the railing and chatting with his friend Chen Jinli. Perhaps he noticed that some low-class activities were going on in the piano area, so he turned around to take a look...
But the smile that was usually like a mask hesitated for a moment, he frowned in disgust, and then looked away.
I didn't mean to come over.
As for the male supporting actors, they seem to be a bit off today——
He Ran is nowhere to be found. The ship is so big, and I don't know where Young Master He is having fun.
Gou Xun had already been devastated. After the opening dance, he was locked back in the cabin by his parents and has never come out since.
Gou An turned to look at Ye Lang. As the last remaining male partner, the latter was also obviously paying attention to the situation over there, with a frown on his face...
As a result, Gou An kicked his calf again.
"Go if you want to." Gou An said coldly, "Don't act so anxious here."
Ye Lang was calm, but a little worried about Lu Wan. He felt that he was far from being anxious.
He looked at Gou An curiously and found that she was also frowning and looking not far away: it was different from the past. Usually she would be very happy to see Lu Wan in trouble.
Of course he didn't know that to Gou An, the original heroine was annoying, but the idiot from the Xu family who drooled like a Shiba Inu and didn't want to do anything good was even more annoying.
Gou An looked at it for a while, then suddenly spoke, using the back of his head to say to the person behind him: "I'm serious, if you want to help her, you can go."
"Are you asking me to go and really want me to help her, or are you being sarcastic?"
After the borrowing game (Ye Lang, who was kicked out at the beginning of the game, spent a whole night thinking about it in the cabin before he figured it out), he gradually understood the thinking of the eldest lady of the Gou family in front of him -
"If it's true, I'll go; if you're speaking in a sarcastic way and you just don't want me to go, then I'll ask my servants to help me out, and I'm still working."
Mr. Bodyguard suddenly became very principled and remembered that he was at work and could not have any interaction with anyone other than his employer.
——Although among the options he gave, there was obviously no option of "leaving Lu Wan alone".
However, this was a choice based on basic human morality, so there was no need to get angry with him. Gou An just sighed after hearing what he said, thinking that this man was suddenly so honest, which was indeed a bit difficult to deal with.
She stood up from her seat, shook the red wine glass in her hand, and was about to do good deeds every day to accumulate merits, when someone grabbed her arm from behind.
"Or is it just for testing?"
The bodyguard's voice was steady and seemed to be without any emotion when asked the question suddenly, but it was actually full of strong personal emotions.
He rarely speaks like this.
Gou An raised his eyebrows in surprise and turned around.
I saw the bodyguard behind me with his black hair hanging down softly. Under the bright lights in the banquet hall, every strand of hair inexplicably carried a sense of obedience.
Even though the aura he exudes has nothing to do with these two words.
At this moment, the pair of black eyes, which seemed a little sharp due to extreme concentration, were fixed on her face, which was the opposite of "obedience".
This man has always been a rebellious person, and Gou An knows it better than anyone else.
"If it's for testing, then there's no need."
Ye Lang said in a voice that was clearer than ever before—
"Lu Wan is just a neighbor. I don't like her."
The great bodyguard realized it later, and after working for more than half a month, he finally vaguely and ignorantly figured out the reason for Miss Gou's abnormal behavior -
Lu Wan was right. Gou An didn't go crazy at any time. She left all her unreasonable behavior to Ye Lang, who happened to appear in the same space with Lu Wan.
pity.
Gou An raised his arm, waved his hand away, and gave him a cold indifference that was a hundred times colder than his gaze.
"Who you like has nothing to do with me."
Mr. Bodyguard let go of his hand.
In fact, he was a little confused. He didn't understand why he suddenly broke off the relationship with Gou An...
Probably to prevent the young lady from causing trouble for him because of strange misunderstandings, thus making his work more difficult.
perhaps.
In the corner, Ye Lang's hand loosened from Gou An's wrist, and He Jinxing slowly moved his gaze away from the two of them.
He raised his hand and touched the cigarette in his pocket, wanting to take it out and take a puff, but an empty box came out. He wordlessly crumpled up the box and threw it into the trash can at his feet.
"Chen Jinli, use your scholarly brain," He Jinxing said, "Is there any way to recruit Ye Lang to the He family?"
Professor Chen, who was asked an unreasonable question, had a head full of question marks: "Have you offended anyone recently? Who did you offend? To the point where you need him to be your bodyguard?"
This idea came so suddenly that He Jinxing himself felt puzzled.
To be honest, it was so strange that he was a little shocked.
After thinking for a long time, he couldn't seem to find a plausible reason to answer Chen Jinli. He simply remained silent for a long time, then curled his lips in self-mockery and said, "Forget it."
This person asked a strange question on a whim, but now after thinking about it, he looked uninterested and obviously didn't want to ask it again...
Chen Jinli knew that He Jinxing didn't want to talk about it, and no matter how he asked, he would not open his mouth, so he simply didn't bother to meddle in it.
After thinking for a while, he mentioned another thing: "How did the bear end up in Zhou Yutong's hands?"
"Why, you don't want to give it to her, but you won't let anyone else give it to her?" He Jinxing raised his eyebrows in amusement, "You should be thankful that Gou An was generous enough to give it to her right away, otherwise it would be difficult for her to let you go in the next three months."
"I didn't want to give it to her."
"Then why are you standing up for Jiang San?"
Chen Jinli showed a frustrated expression, as if saying "I'm asking for trouble by bringing up this topic."
"You'd better stop doing this kind of thing in the future."
"What?"
"I will regret it."
"He Jinxing," Professor Chen asked with amusement, "Have you been a role model lately? After teaching Gou Yu how to raise a daughter, you want to teach me how to fall in love?"
He finished speaking, and before He Jinxing could refute, there was a commotion behind him. It was probably because the girl next to the piano politely refused the drink offered by the low-class playboy. This behavior triggered a small war.
"Don't care?" Chen Jinli kicked He Jinxing's shoes with his toes.
At this moment, he was immersed in his shocking idea of wanting Ye Lang to resign. He leaned on the railing with one hand, and said absentmindedly: "What do you care?"
"Your ship is about to stage a scene of robbing a woman. I heard that the Xu family's brother and sister have some dirty things in their hands—"
"oh."
"What's 'oh'?"
"When a boat full of restless teenagers get together, something bad will happen." When no one was around, He Jinxing's voice finally revealed his casual and harsh nature. "I just provided a boat, but you want me to manage the behavior of everyone on the boat one by one. Do you think I have nothing to do?"
As he spoke, he looked at the moonlight outside the French window.
It seemed that compared to the mess happening not far away, he was more concerned about why the moon was so round tonight. Perhaps it was because of the change in the magnetic field that disturbed people's mood and made them feel bad.
Chen Jinli stared at his friend's profile, which had put away his fake smile, and didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he said, "But——"
"Um?"
"Gou Yu's daughter rushed over."
“…”
During the time that Ye Lang had delayed him, Lu Wan had no choice but to refuse the glass of brandy from the idiot from the Xu family.
Before this, she had been force-fed a glass of champagne and a glass of unknown cocktail. After drinking the mixture, she could only hold on to the piano to prevent herself from shaking.
If it were Gou An or Tang Xinjiu or even Zhou Yutong, the girl from an aristocratic family who had just come of age two days ago, they would have slapped this guy in the face as soon as he handed him the second glass of mixed wine.
But the heroine of a domineering boss's abuse story always has no status at the beginning. Now she can only be pitiful, her face pale, and she musters up the courage to quietly refuse -
And you will be seen as ungrateful.
At this time Xu Ke came over. She and her brother had a very good relationship and had always been birds of a feather. Seeing that her brother was about to be humiliated, her eyes became cold.
"Miss Lu, are you being disrespectful?" Xu Ke smiled, covering his lips. "That's right. She danced the opening dance with the young master of the Gou family, and drank with the young master of the He family yesterday. How could she be interested in my brother?"
The word "accompany" is very harsh.
Gou An quickened his pace towards that end.
At this moment, a "ding" sound came from my mind.
【Jiao Jiao: Plot points! Plot points! We all love plot points! 】
[Jiao Jiao: In the next second, Xu Ke’s wine will be poured onto Lu Wan! ]
Gou An: "But Xu Ke doesn't have any wine."
【Jiao Jiao: Yes, but Lu Wan has it.】
Gou An: “…”
[Jiao Jiao: Then the hero invited the heroine to the lounge and asked her to change into a new dress in the lounge... You know, the fixed routine of the rich and powerful boss novel: Cinderella changed into her wide-sleeved fairy dress, walked down the spiral staircase timidly, and won everyone over! Captivated the hero! ]
Amid the system's stupid cat meowing, Gou An had a blank expression on his face, but he had already changed from walking briskly at the beginning to lifting up the hem of his skirt, and was just short of running briskly for a 100-meter sprint.
Then, at the moment when Xu Ke said sarcastically, "You don't know how to appreciate a favor," she rushed to Lu Wan, panting.
The next second, just as she was about to take the initiative and pour the wine in her hand on Xu Ke's face to end it all, her hands were suddenly empty, and the red wine glass fell into Xu Ke's hands -
Gou An: “?”
Gou An: “…”
Miss Gou instantly changed from "Hello heroine, I'm here to save you" to "Hello heroine, I'm here to hand out weapons to passers-by". She was stunned for a moment, and her mind was full of: Author, I'm going to burn your household registration book!!!
At the same time, he saw the blood-red liquid in his glass of red wine enlarged, slowed down, and poured out of the glass!
Gou An didn't have time to think so much. She stretched out her hand to stop Lu Wan while closing her eyes and tilting her head. She thought to herself that after this, Xu Ke would be so proud. After all, this time, she was the one who got splashed in the face. Gou An had really avenged herself.
In the end, she only heard a "splash" sound, the sound of wine spilling on the cloth, but she did not feel the wetness on her body, only a few drops of cold liquid splashed on her forehead! Everything was silent.
Gou An shrank his neck and opened one eye, and saw a pair of shoulders as broad as a mountain and a straight spine standing in front of him.
Ye Lang casually brushed away the water droplets on his black suit that were splashed with wine, turned around and glanced at Gou An with a dull expression.
A drop of red wine slipped down her forehead, flowed down her cheek, and finally condensed into a hanging drop on her chin...
Crumbling.
Ye Lang's dark eyes moved, and he bent his index finger to scrape off the drop of wine for her.
The rough calluses on his fingertips scraped rudely across her delicate chin.
Her pupils shrank, and she subconsciously tensed her shoulders and stepped back, her lips slightly parted.
Ye Lang lowered his head and looked at his fingertips thoughtfully. After thinking for a while, he said in a low and hoarse voice, "The collar is dirty."
A few drops of red wine still fell on the lotus pink skirt that Gou An was wearing today. The dark red liquid was very obvious.
When Gou An came back to his senses, the first thing he did was not to look at his skirt, but to look back at the little white flower heroine Lu Wan——
At this moment, the original heroine, who is currently from the lower class, is probably terrified, huddled there and trembling like a panicked little animal...
But the good thing is that she was intact and unharmed.
The part where Cinderella is helped by the hero to win the hearts of all people should not exist.
As for her contradictory image of a vicious female supporting character who hands over a weapon and then blocks the knife——
…………In the eyes of others, it could be seen as her conscience awakening and she suddenly shouted out when she saw injustice. No need to thank me, no need to thank me.
Facing Lu Wan's completely shocked and confused face, the vicious female supporting role who secretly destroyed the original plot and created a "helpful" image killed two birds with one stone. Her mood became better again. She curled her lips and was about to say something. At this time, a familiar voice sounded behind her -
"Excuse me, what are you guys doing?"
The last time she heard He Jinxing speak in this tone was when Gou An met him for the first time after her awakening, at the gate of Gou's house. Then, because she refused to fulfill her engagement with the young master of the He family, she was severely deducted five points of friendship.
…………Even though it was this person who later broke off her engagement with He Ran, he never asked for the five cents back.
It totally brought back bad memories.
Gou An quickly glanced at the man who fell from the sky——
The usual hypocritical and artificial gentle smile was no longer on He Jinxing's face. At this moment, his expression was cold and he rarely showed his not-so-good mood without caring.
It was like an invisible net descending from the sky, enveloping everyone present...
Airtight, suffocating and oppressive.
Gou An looked at everyone around him looking at him in confusion, and belatedly realized that he might have accidentally gotten into trouble with Xu Ke——
The black and white keys of the expensive antique piano were splashed with crimson wine.
The light-colored carpet was extremely mottled.
She and the bodyguard beside her were also in a mess.
Any of the above scenes should not appear in such a formal and decent social occasion.
In an instant, the courage she usually had to tease others was put away. Miss Gou's shoulders were stiff, and she even subconsciously slowed down her breathing.
Suddenly I kind of miss this man's usual fake smile.
Instead, his eyes were dark as if they could be quenched into ice, and his thin lips were slightly pursed, revealing his originally bad temper.
"Uncle..."
The plan is to act nice first and then act pitiful.
However, as soon as the first two words came out, they were held back by the man's sweeping gaze. Gou An watched He Jinxing hook his fingers across the red wine on the piano keys, and after a moment, he sneered.
"The piano is messed up like this."
The voice is cold.
The inexplicably cold air seemed to transform into sharp blades from all directions. Everyone present was silent, watching the red liquid flying from the piano's fingertips.
He Jinxing turned his head and looked directly at Gou An this time, his black eyes staring straight into the panicked eyes of the little girl——
It seemed like in an instant, the sparse hair on the top of her head stood up.
He Jinxing paused, then calmed down a little and said in a calm tone, "An An, your skirt is dirty, go back and change it."
In this atmosphere, I think I am probably quite moderate.
But to Gou An, it sounded completely different.
At this moment, Miss Gou always felt that one of her and the Xu family's fairy brother and sister would be thrown into the sea to feed the sharks tonight.
Let's rescue it.
"Uncle," Gou An poked his head out from behind the bodyguard and asked in what he thought was the cutest and most innocent tone in the world, "Just to confirm, are you in a bad mood right now?"
“…”
He Jinxing's eyes slid across the annoying figure with a blank face standing in front of the little girl.
"yes."
“…”
"I am really in a bad mood right now."
“…”
OK
The fate of the female supporting role may not be tears behind bars, but may also be fed to sharks.
Help!
