Chapter 345 Fear
Cao Leshan, who initially stood on Qin Lie's side, eventually became the person who criticized Qin Lie the most.
"Qin Lie, you actually dared to report me. No wonder you were kicked out of the army."
"Bad guys like you must eat peanuts."
"I was deceived by you and almost wronged a good comrade like Comrade Su."
…
Gu Xizhou listened to Cao Leshan's words with some disgust and interrupted him, "Captain Cao, leave these words to your leader."
At this point, he paused slightly, "I wonder if my leader has finished talking to your leader?"
Cao Leshan was stunned. He just thought that Su Nanzhi was an orphan with no one to rely on. After all, when he took Su Nanzhi away from the hospital, he did not encounter any obstruction. But he did not expect that not long after Su Nanzhi arrived, the team leader Gu Xizhou would appear.
Now, the leader of a group leader has even found his leader.
He has reached the end of his career as captain, but he is not clean.
Cao Leshan looked as if he had lost his soul. At this moment, he really wanted to give Qin Lie peanuts.
However, Qin Lie did not react at all when Cao Leshan pointed at his nose and scolded him. When he saw Gu Xizhou and Su Nanzhi were about to leave, he became excited again.
"Su Nanzhi, we grew up together. We were so close before, why did it become like this?"
Qin Lie almost shouted these words, with hatred and confusion in his eyes.
Before Su Nanzhi went to visit her relatives in the army, they had a very good relationship.
How come it changed suddenly?
He fell from deputy battalion commander to his current situation.
Su Nanzhi's body stiffened. Looking at Qin Lie's complicated expression, she signaled everyone to leave first.
Ge Shengnan and others left, but Gu Xizhou did not move.
Su Nanzhi glanced at him and did not let him leave. Instead, she pushed her wheelchair to Qin Lie.
"Brother Lie."
Suddenly hearing this long-lost name, Qin Lie was stunned, and the doubt in his eyes deepened.
Su Nanzhi looked at the unshaven and disheveled man in front of her and sighed slightly.
This sigh was not for Qin Lie, but for himself in the previous life.
Qin Lie, who looked strong and invincible, turned out to be so fragile. He went crazy just by being driven out by the army. In her previous life, she was tortured by the Qin family for so long, and after Zhao Xue became their wife, she endured so many years of hardship before she had the courage to leave the Qin family.
"Yeah, we were so good before, why did it become like this now?"
Su Nanzhi forced a sarcastic smile.
"You should ask yourself this question, not me."
"You're just angry that I didn't obey your orders and comply with your wishes."
"I just fought back before you could strike."
Gu Xizhou took in the expression on Su Nanzhi's face, and a hint of pity flashed in his eyes.
He cannot get involved in Su Nanzhi's past, but in the future he will protect Su Nanzhi and will not let her get hurt again.
Qin Lie didn't understand what Su Nanzhi said, "Nanzhi, I was just joking with you. Please ask the people from the Revolutionary Committee to let me out."
He grabbed Su Nanzhi's clothes tightly with both hands, with a pleading look on his face.
Perhaps it was the pain of being pressed to the ground that calmed Qin Lie down. At this moment, he realized what he was going to face next. The fear made him unable to care about anything else, and he only asked Su Nanzhi to let him go.
Su Nanzhi wanted to pull his hand away, but Qin Lie was a soldier after all, so Su Nanzhi couldn't struggle free at all.
In the end, Gu Xizhou reached out and used his strength to push Qin Lie's hand away.
"Qin Lie, if you do something wrong, you must accept the corresponding punishment. Don't let me look down on you."
Gu Xizhou stood in front of Su Nanzhi and Qin Lie, frowning and looking at Qin Lie.
Qin Lie touched his aching wrist and looked at Gu Xizhou with a ferocious expression.
"Gu Xizhou, why do you look down on me? You stole my woman, and you still have the nerve to pretend to be a good person in front of me!"
As he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something, and said with certainty: "Did you two hook up when you were in the army? Su Nanzhi tripped me up because of you."
After all, in the army, Gu Xizhou only had him as his rival of similar age. It must be because Gu Xizhou was afraid of him that he hooked up with Su Nanzhi.
Thinking of this, he wanted to grab Su Nanzhi again, but was pushed away heavily by Gu Xizhou who was prepared.
"Nanzhi, Gu Xizhou has a good family background. He's just playing around with you. Don't be fooled by him."
"Tell the Revolutionary Committee to release me. When I get out, I'll marry you."
Listening to his narcissistic words, Su Nanzhi chuckled. She really wasted these few minutes in vain. She might as well lie down in bed and rest early.
Gu Xizhou, who was standing in front of her, heard her laughter and his heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that Nanzhi was moved by Qin Lie? After all, Nanzhi and Qin Lie had known each other for so many years, so there must still be feelings for each other.
But what if Nanzhi really regrets it?
Gu Xizhou was thinking aimlessly, and finally there was only one idea in his mind.
Even if Nanzhi regretted it, he would not allow it.
Su Nanzhi thought Qin Lie was crazy and had no intention of continuing to talk to him. She tugged at Gu Xizhou's clothes, indicating that she wanted to leave.
Seeing this, Gu Xizhou completely let go of the stone in his heart, and a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth. He was about to leave with Su Nanzhi.
But before the two of them turned around, Qin Lie's voice came again from behind them.
"Su Nanzhi, you will regret it. A hypocritical person like Gu Xizhou..."
Su Nanzhi didn't want to pay attention to Qin Lie at first, but when she heard him insulting Gu Xizhou, she couldn't help but turn around.
"Qin Lie, shut up."
She turned around and looked at Qin Lie, "You are the most hypocritical person."
"Gu Xizhou is hundreds, thousands of times better than you."
"Instead of slandering Gu Xizhou, why don't you think carefully about what your Qin family is going to do?"
After saying that, she no longer hesitated and pushed Gu Xizhou's wheelchair towards the door.
***
By the time Su Nanzhi and others left the Revolutionary Committee, it was already around eight or nine in the evening.
After seeing Ge Shengnan and the others off, Su Nanzhi sat on the hospital bed and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But when she noticed the burning gaze from the side, her cheeks turned red instantly.
"You...what are you looking at?"
Su Nanzhi looked up at Gu Xizhou and couldn't help but glare at him.
But after seeing the bed next to hers, her face turned even redder.
"I'll ask the nurse to change your room."
When she was unconscious, she didn't feel embarrassed. Now, in the small ward, there were only her and Gu Xizhou, and Su Nanzhi just felt uncomfortable all over.
Although she and Gu Xizhou had pretended to be a couple before, sleeping in the same room and even in the same bed, she could still say that it was for the mission at that time, but now the mission is over.
She sat up from the bed and was about to get out of bed when a big hand grabbed Su Nanzhi's wrist.
"I want to live here."
Gu Xizhou had a gentle look on his face, but his eyes were full of aggression when he looked at her.
Su Nanzhi felt her face burning. She avoided Gu Xizhou's gaze, lowered her head and looked at her feet, and whispered, "Then you stay here. I'll ask the nurse to change me to another room."
Gu Xizhou laughed, "Nanzhi, what are you afraid of?"
