Gou An: Embrace your lovable self!

He Jinxing's order was implemented.

Successfully plunged the corridor into silence.

He Ran was obviously stunned by this outrageous order, but Gou An simply felt that the place on his waist that had just been touched by the man's hand was burning hot, as if a blister had appeared -

Goose bumps spread from the place where she was touched through the clothes to her back. The girl with a tingling scalp almost immediately broke away from the domineering man behind her and bounced away.

In that vivid and three-dimensional nightmare about tears behind bars, He Jinxing was probably the one with the least lines in the whole scene...

But unfortunately, it still succeeded in making Gou An allergic to this person from then on.

She just remembered that he hated her, but she didn't remember what she had done.

So to save my life.

She just wanted to stay away from him.

Just like now.

Gou An's overly obvious avoidance of He Jinxing made him look at her more.

But it was just a glance——

The little girl in front of him lowered her head, her whole body pressed against the wall. From his angle, he could only see a few strands of her hair sticking up unruly and her eyelashes fluttering wildly...

He Jinxing naturally thought that she was going to cry because of He Ran.

"She's going to cry."

He Jinxing kindly reminded He Ran and advised him not to seek death.

"I doubt you'll ever be able to find a wife if you're like this."

He added appropriately.

Gou An was indeed about to cry, but he was not angry at He Ran, but frightened by He Jinxing... After all, anyone who deliberately fell into someone else's arms and opened his eyes to find that it was the King of Hell who caught him would be scared and cry -

Ahhhhh, Lord Yama just touched my waist!!! Or something like that.

Now when Gou An heard He Jinxing talking, his legs went weak.

"I don't know who will be my wife in the future."

He Ran showed his loyalty to Lu Wan at the critical moment. He restrained the fury he had shown when facing Gou An the previous second, lowered his eyebrows and said coldly, "Uncle, don't say anything that can be misunderstood."

"Besides her, who else?"

He Jinxing withdrew his gaze from the little girl's long eyelashes and glanced at He Ran indifferently, obviously too lazy to talk nonsense with him, "Apologize."

He Ran pursed his lips in resistance.

Gou An suddenly said, "It's okay."

Her voice suddenly softened by eight degrees, attracting the attention of two other people in the corridor at the same time. He Ran raised his eyebrows and looked at her, but He Jinxing showed little expression and seemed a little confused.

"Forget it, it's fine with me, He...Mr. He."

Swallowing hard, Gou An's hands unconsciously grabbed the wall behind him and moved away from the two of them. He was completely different from the man who had just stood with his hands on his hips and scolded He Ran for being a bastard.

The ferocious wild cat turned into the cutest bunny in the world. She blinked and said, "I'm not angry. I'm sorry. I yelled too loudly just now. Did I disturb you?"

He Ran: “…”

As for Gou An's well-behaved behavior at this moment, he hasn't appeared like this since he graduated from kindergarten and was old enough to speak fluently.

Just like that rainy evening, she could still be so arrogant when apologizing to him.

He Jinxing didn't know, but He Ran grew up with Gou An, and Young Master He knew her very well. He looked at her absurdly for several times, as if he was looking at a monster -

"Gou An, what are you being so sarcastic about?"

How should he face his uncle, Miss Gou, who uses all kinds of interjections such as "ya", "ne" and "oh" as if they are free?

Gou An simply ignored him.

I mustered up the courage to look up at the friendship level above He Jinxing's head, and sincerely hoped that it would not drop any further.

At this moment, she saw the number [Friendliness: 10] above He Jinxing's head trembled and became [Friendliness: 13].

Gou An: “?”

The holy light shines upon the earth.

Ahhhhh, it’s changed, the friendship level has suddenly increased. I don’t know why, maybe it’s because he’s sick. Anyway, the friendship level has suddenly reached “3”! ! ! ! Throw flowers! ...

【Jiao Jiao: ……】

【Jiao Jiao: Since He Jinxing appeared, your total record against him is -5 3. Tell me loudly what it equals?】

Perhaps wanting to give the young man some time to himself, He Jinxing took the initiative to avoid suspicion and went downstairs first.

Gou An and He Ran were the only ones left in the corridor.

Gou An originally wanted to chase after He Jinxing and flatter him to try to even out her record (or even reset it to zero), but just as she took half a step, someone grabbed her by the back of the neck, and a cold voice rang out above her head: "Where are you going?"

"? Come downstairs to eat."

Gou An's gaze was still following the direction He Jinxing left.

He Ran's eyes darkened: "Who were you pretending to be pitiful for just now?"

His question was powerful, but it lost its momentum when Gou An came to his senses and gave him a cold glance. The girl, who was soft and well-behaved a second ago, returned to her normal voice at this moment: "Who's pretending to be pitiful? I'm telling the truth. I don't need your apology. What do I need that worthless thing for?"

Gou An slapped away the big hand that was holding his collar.

There was a loud "pop".

The back of He Ran's hand almost immediately turned red. He frowned, thought for a moment, and refrained from asking her if her attitude was provocative. He just said in a stiff and awkward tone, "Okay, I was wrong about what happened today. I was just a little anxious when I saw them using unpleasant words to describe Lu Wan, so I said those words to clarify our relationship without consulting you... But this was my decision alone, so don't take it out on Lu Wan again."

Question: Are all the men in domineering boss stories like this, speaking with a sincere look on their faces, afraid that their lines won’t piss people off to death? Gou An stared at him, “Are you afraid that I’ll take my anger out on Lu Wan?”

"I apologized."

"What you said is bullshit - forget it - are you afraid that I will vent my anger on Lu Wan?"

She asked again.

"She's just an ordinary girl who lives in Zhaipu District." He Ran paused, "Although I don't know why, I think she is a little afraid of you."

Gou An knew that Zhaipu District was the old city area of ​​Jiangcheng, also known as the lower city area by some people. It was full of tube-shaped buildings and resettlement houses, which were old and mottled, as if they had become disconnected from Jiangcheng, a rapidly developing modern city.

Gou An smiled at He Ran and repeated, "She's afraid of me?"

"Um."

I am afraid of her. After all, she is the one who owns everything in the end.

It's no grievance for her to live in Zhaipu District temporarily now. In the future, she can even sit shoulder to shoulder with your uncle in the office on the top floor of Gou's Building, which should have belonged to my father.

It can be said that great revenge has been achieved.

His heart was beating violently, but Gou An smiled because of the absurd logic in the script that everyone could ignore their brains as long as they were serving the heroine.

——What a pity, she is a living person.

"He Ran," Gou An tilted his head and asked, "When are we going to cancel our engagement?"

Asked again.

In just half a month, she didn't know how many times she had mentioned this matter.

He Ran didn't know what had suddenly happened to Gou An. He only knew that he had already drafted and printed out the agreement to cancel the engagement when he first knew that the white moonlight who saved him was Lu Wan instead of Gou An. Now it was in his room, casually tucked into a book...

I originally wanted to give it to her on the day when it rained heavily.

But unexpectedly, when she brought it up first, he hesitated.

For some unknown reason, I hesitated.

There was a moment that night when He Ran always felt that there was something strange in Gou An's eyes when he looked at him, which was fading away quickly and completely.

Something was going off the rails, unraveling.

It might be an illusion.

Maybe.

After waiting for a long time without any formal response from He Ran, Gou An became a little impatient. The little girl raised her hand and flicked her hair, "Then just drag it on. I'm just being casual... If you feel sorry for Lu Wan, just let her stay away from me, lest I go crazy and bite her, and you have to pay for her rabies vaccine."

After saying that, without waiting for He Ran to say anything, Gou An turned around and walked down the stairs.

The sound of "ding ding" coming down the stairs was like countless times in the past when she ignored the elevator and rushed up to open the study door, dragged He Ran who was studying, and talked nonsense...

Until Gou An's figure disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

He Ran suddenly realized that the lively footsteps were actually different from before.

It was a joyful family dinner. Gou An poked He Ran's arm and asked him to pour him apple juice in a tone that sounded like there was no problem between them at all.

Everyone thought they were about to get married. Mr. He said that the two of them, who had been quarreling every day, were finally getting along well, so they should hurry up and choose a date and at least hold an engagement party.

Gou An smiled perfectly and said, Grandpa, I only regard He Ran as a brother. I think we should forget about the engagement.

Everyone present, except Gou An's parents, showed a brief look of surprise. Even Mr. He didn't take her words seriously. He smiled and pointed at her and said, "Stop it."

He Ran remained silent throughout the whole process. He felt that the food he swallowed was bitter, but he couldn't explain why.

What is certain is that he was sure that what he was eating was not bitter melon.

After dinner, Master He fled in a panic. In a daze, he grabbed a helmet and rode on the H2 he bought last month, and rushed to Qinmo Mountain at lightning speed.

Qinmo Mountain is located 20 kilometers east of the city suburbs. It has the most famous seven hairpin bends in the province and is a gathering place for motorcycle enthusiasts.

At this time, the lights are just coming on, and it is the most beautiful moment for the night view of the entire Jiangcheng. The bright nebulae are pressed into a Milky Way, dotted on the dim moon halo. There are a few motorcycles parked scattered on the top of the mountain, and the owners are sitting or leaning around, puffing smoke, enjoying the night view and chatting.

Although Jiangcheng is big, there are only a few liter-class vehicles like the Kawasaki H2. As soon as He Ran put one leg on the ground and before he took off his helmet, someone recognized him and greeted him.

He Ran took off his safety helmet, frowned, and his first words were to ask the person next to him for a cigarette.

A tobacco was handed to him, and with a "pop" a flame leaped up, illuminating his dark pupils.

“Don’t ride with emotions.”

A familiar male voice sounded beside him. He Ran turned around and looked at Zhou Yanji.

“…”

He Ran paused, the corners of his lips twitched. He felt that he should say something to his good brother. At least he could exchange pleasantries and say "I know" to answer his question perfunctorily.

However, when his Adam's apple rolled, his eyes flickered, and all he said was, "You died before you finished your game this morning. Where were you in such a hurry to go?"

"ah?"

He Ran was annoyed by his inexplicable "ah".

"Brother Ye said that a new batch of cars had arrived at the club store, and he couldn't spare the time, so he asked me to go over and help watch over the unloading." Zhou Yan was puzzled. "Is the sky falling? When did Young Master He start to care about my life or death?"

“…”

oh.

He Ran turned his face away with a gloomy look.

Zhou Yanji raised his hand and took off the tobacco from He Ran's lips. When the latter "hissed" and turned his head back with an annoyed frown, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "What are you doing?"

He Ran refused to say.

Zhou Yanji nudged him with his elbow.

Relentless.

Finally, He Ran got impatient and pushed him, frowning, and finally said, "Gou An wants to cancel the engagement with me."

Zhou Yanji, who had just been steadying a motorcycle, uttered "Huh", thinking he had heard it wrong.

After he realized what was going on, he said casually, "There is such a good thing." Before he could show his joy, he heard Young Master He slowly recounting the bloody incident between him, Lu Wan, and Gou An in the milky white cloud of tobacco not far away.

After hearing this, Zhou Yan was stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment.

At this time, Master He said in a self-deprecating voice: "The problem is that I suddenly realized that I seem to be a little reluctant now... Do you think I am sick?"

Zhou Yanji: "? Who are you reluctant to part with?"

He Ran: "Gou An."

Zhou Yanji: "Don't!"

He Ran: “…”

Zhou Yanji: “…”

He Ran: “=_=”

Zhou Yanji: “…”
