Chapter 309 Friends
Gu Poguan was stunned and said, "Friends."
But he soon realized that it was a bit unreasonable for an ordinary friend to be taken care of by his own elder brother.
He was just about to say that although they were friends now, she might become his sister-in-law in the future.
Then Gu Xizhou's low voice was heard.
"I will take care of my own wife."
Gu Poguan scratched his ears.
He felt like he was hallucinating. What did his brother just say about wife? What about taking care of?
Whose wife? Who takes care?
"Brother, I think you're strangling me and causing me to hallucinate." Gu Poguan looked confused.
Gu Xizhou looked at him and said word by word: "I am pursuing Su Nanzhi."
Gu Poguan nodded, confirming that he was not hallucinating, but his brother was crazy.
"Brother, why do you like Su Nanzhi?" Gu Poguan was even more defensive than when Su Nanzhi revealed that he was less than 180cm tall.
"Su Nanzhi is not worthy of you. She is very sinister. Have you been bewitched by her?"
If Su Nanzhi heard these words at the scene, she would definitely say, "I never thought that one day she would be unfollowed and turned against."
Gu Xizhou sternly said to Gu Poguan, "Shut up."
Gu Poguan immediately stopped talking.
In fact, he now thinks that Su Nanzhi is a pretty good person and a good match for his brother.
I don’t know if it’s too late for him to say something nice now.
Gu Xizhou didn't look at him again, but said coldly: "This is my own business, and has nothing to do with you or the Gu family."
Gu Poguan's expression instantly darkened. He had forgotten that Gu Xizhou never liked the Gu family to control him.
"Remember not to reveal the truth."
After Gu Xizhou finished speaking, he ignored Gu Poguan and turned around to walk towards the Su family yard.
Gu Poguan stood there for a while before returning to the yard.
When he returned to the yard, there was no one there. The lights were on in the west wing and the main wing. Su Nanzhi and Niu Guoxing had both returned to their houses.
Gu Poguan quickly returned to the east wing and lay down, but he was no longer sleepy.
***
Gu Xizhou came back from outside and looked at the rooms with lights still on. He frowned and then walked towards the main wing.
If someone familiar with him was around, they would definitely be able to see that he was tense all over, and even his steps were a little smaller than usual, as if he was not going back to his room to rest, but rather going to the battlefield.
Gu Xizhou stood at the door, looking at the lighted main wing. He took a deep breath and then pushed open the half-open door.
Although after he told Su Nanzhi that he wanted to rent out the yard, he and Su Nanzhi had a tacit understanding that in order to avoid people noticing anything, his things needed to be moved into Su Nanzhi's room.
Fortunately, Su Nanzhi went to Hongqi County some time ago, so Gu Xizhou was not nervous on the day of moving things.
The fragrance that originally belonged to Su Nanzhi in the room has become much weaker in the past few days since the owner Su Nanzhi left.
But with her return today, the room was once again filled with the scent of Su Nanzhi.
Gu Xizhou looked at the figure lying on the bed, sleeping against the wall with his back to the door and covered with a quilt, and felt his steps become even stiffer.
It was obvious that during the time that Su Nanzhi was away, he had already started to get used to staying in Su Nanzhi's room.
At this moment, only Su Nanzhi came back, and everything returned to the starting point.
Gu Xizhou walked to the bedside and could only see Su Nanzhi's long black hair exposed outside the quilt. As he approached the bed, he could also smell the source of the fragrance in the room.
He held his breath and bent down to pick up the quilt and pillow placed outside. His fingers made a faint sound when they touched the quilt, and the figure on the bed seemed to freeze for a moment.
Although her back was facing away from him, Gu Xizhou immediately noticed that Su Nanzhi was pretending to be asleep.
This realization made Gu Xizhou tighten his grip on the quilt. His gaze fell on Su Nanzhi's vaguely visible fair profile, but his mind uncontrollably recalled the scene in the room before when he was applying medicine to Su Nanzhi.
Su Nanzhi was lying on the bed, and could feel a burning gaze falling on her face. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her ears felt hot unconsciously.
Just when she felt her skin burning and wanted to open her eyes, the burning gaze moved away.
Gu Xizhou realized that he had just been daydreaming, and his heart was pounding. He carefully put the quilt on the table, picked up the straw mat behind the table and spread it at the door.
After moving into Su Nanzhi's room, although there was no one at Su Nanzhi's house, Gu Xizhou never slept in Su Nanzhi's bed.
Fortunately, he was used to sleeping in the open air when doing missions outside, so he could adapt well to sleeping on the floor.
After making his bed on the floor, he picked up the quilt and pillow and was about to bend down when Su Nanzhi's voice sounded behind him.
"You...are you sleeping on the floor?"
Su Nanzhi's voice instantly broke the silence in the room. Gu Xizhou turned around suddenly, but the wound on his waist was injured, causing him to groan.
“Hmm…”
The moment she asked the question, Su Nanzhi felt a little regretful and didn't know how to face Gu Xizhou's reply.
But he didn't expect to see Gu Xizhou with a pale face and one hand covering his waist.
She didn't care about anything else. She walked barefoot from the bed to Gu Xizhou's side and lifted up his shirt without any hesitation.
"Did you hurt your waist?"
But before her hand touched the edge of her clothes, it was grabbed by Gu Xizhou's big hand.
Gu Xizhou felt the delicate little hand in his palm, and his pale face became more rosy.
"I'm fine, I just twisted it."
Although Gu Xizhou tried his best to pretend that nothing was wrong, Su Nanzhi's frown did not relax.
How could Gu Xizhou, a military king, twist his waist?
Su Nanzhi pulled back her hand, lifted the corner of Gu Xizhou's clothes, and saw that the white gauze wrapped around his waist was soaked with blood.
"You said it was okay, but you didn't feel any pain?"
Gu Xizhou looked down at Su Nanzhi's wrinkled little face, and a warm current seemed to flow through his heart.
Su Nanzhi carefully removed the blood-stained gauze around his waist. Her fingers touched the sensitive area on his waist. Gu Xizhou felt a tingling sensation that made him purse his lips tightly, fearing that he would make some inappropriate noise.
Su Nanzhi looked up without waiting for Gu Xizhou's reply, and could only see Gu Xizhou's tense jawline and beads of sweat sliding from his forehead to his cheeks.
The next second, Gu Xizhou felt a warm breeze brushing against his waist.
Su Nanzhi was blowing gently at the wound on his waist with a serious look on her face.
Just like he had blown at Su Nanzhi's ankle before.
Thinking of this, Gu Xizhou's whole body tensed up and he pulled Su Nanzhi over. He originally wanted her to stay away from him, but the two of them were already close to each other, and Su Nanzhi's action was a conditioned reflex.
The distance between the two people not only did not increase, but became closer.
Su Nanzhi held Gu Xizhou's left wrist with one hand. Under the dim light, Su Nanzhi could clearly see the bulging blue veins on Gu Xizhou's arm, which looked rough and full of... tension.
"Don't move."
Gu Xizhou's restrained voice sounded, causing Su Nanzhi's movement to freeze instantly when she was about to let go of his arm.
"It will only take a moment."
