In an office, a tablet was placed in front of a man, and the screen was replaying the scene of Gu Xun and Ye Muchen hugging each other before the fire.
“Knock knock.”
"Enter."
"X."
"I'm back, doing well."
The person who came back to report was the one who was sent to protect Yan Xiaoqian. He had completed his mission and returned.
Only his subordinates knew that he had rushed to the scene after seeing the news today, but for some reason he came back halfway.
X looked at the girl on the tablet, smiling like a flower, and felt a little regretful. He sighed softly...
The terrorist attack was widely reported by the news media, and Lu Wei's collusion with them was also exposed. However, he had already died at the scene, so there was no way to hold him accountable.
The news only reported that Ye Muchen was the target of Lu Wei's behavior, and the Firefox organization was just a killer organization hired by him, and did not mention Gu Xun.
In this incident, Gu Xun is already the victim, and there is no need for her to be discussed again by public opinion and disrupt her life.
If Gu Xun was reported, there would definitely be people who would come out and blindly criticize her, saying things like if it wasn't her fault, such a big thing would never have happened.
Although they knew that Gu Xun wouldn't care at all, neither Ye Muchen nor the other people in the Gu family wanted this to happen.
They just want Gu Xun to live happily the life he likes.
Because of this incident, Gu Xun's class teacher Wu Ming specially asked for a week's leave for Gu Xun after learning about it, and told her to have a good rest at home. After all, such a big thing happened, and she must be very scared.
So Gu Xun got a week of leisurely vacation. Whether it was school or the shop, there was nothing for her to worry about except the condolence message.
After Gu Xun had been lying in bed at home for two whole days, she received an invitation from Ye Muchen to have dinner together.
Gu Xun smiled and replied with a "OK".
Suddenly, Gu Xun thought of Ye Muchen's gentle eyes when he pushed her down from the fire, the panic she felt when she thought she would never see him again, and that gentle kiss...
Sighing, Gu Xun looked out the window. The sun was still high in the sky.
There seems to be plenty of time.
Gu Xun got up and went to the cloakroom, rummaged through the clothes in the cloakroom from left to right, and picked out a dress that was smart and elegant.
The skirt is made of satin and has a very drapey feel. The hem just reaches the calf, revealing a section of delicate and white calves.
The waist is cut very appropriately, perfectly showing off Gu Xun's slender waist.
The upper body is a suspender style, paired with a short translucent gauze outer layer, allowing the almost perfect right-angled shoulders and collarbones to be faintly visible.
Then Gu Xun put on some light makeup, curled her already thick and long eyelashes slightly, and drew a thin upward eyeliner to make her already watery eyes look even more lively.
With her slightly curly long hair, Gu Xun couldn't help but sigh at her perfection when looking at herself in the mirror.
What’s even more perfect is Gu Xun’s mood at the moment.
Gu Xun never had this feeling when he went to have dinner with Ye Muchen before. He felt a little expectant and even a little nervous.
Now I laugh just thinking about it!
Gu Xun suddenly woke up and slapped his forehead.
Oh no! I'm probably falling in love!
Isn't this a bit dangerous...
Gu Xun stood in front of the mirror with a changing expression for ten minutes, and finally she couldn't help laughing.
What are you thinking about? You have lived a lifetime, why would you still be entangled in such things?
Just let it be.
The sun sets gradually.
Gu Xun picked up her bag and went downstairs.
Downstairs, Xu Jingyi was sitting on the sofa reading a magazine. When she heard footsteps, she looked up.
"Oh, my dear daughter, are you going on a date? Why are you dressed so beautifully?"
When he heard the word "date", two pink spots suddenly appeared on the tips of Gu Xun's ears.
"Mom, it's not a date. Ye Muchen asked me to have dinner with him."
Xu Jingyi looked at Gu Xun with a smile and waved for her to come over.
"I guessed it. Come sit here with mom."
Gu Xun walked up to Xu Jingyi and sat down.
"Xunxun, your dad and I have talked about it. Ye Muchen is a good person. I haven't heard any rumors about him in all these years. We are really grateful to him for what happened a few days ago. As long as he treats you well, we have no objection."
Gu Xun felt warm in his heart after hearing this.
"Mom, we haven't..."
Xu Jingyi smiled and patted her daughter's hand.
"Mom knows, you don't have to feel any psychological burden, just let it go. Mom just wants to tell you that Mom, Dad, and your brothers will always support you."
"Yeah, thanks, Mom."
"Alright, alright, go ahead and don't keep me waiting."
Gu Xun nodded, stood up and walked out the door.
Outside the door, Ye Muchen had indeed arrived. At this moment, he was leaning against the car door and looking at the sky. The golden afterglow of the setting sun shone on his face, revealing his perfect profile, as if his entire body was inlaid with a layer of gold.
He was still wearing a well-fitting suit today, with a few strands of hair hanging down in front of his forehead. A breeze blew by, creating a very atmospheric atmosphere.
As if he heard footsteps, the man turned his head and looked at Gu Xun. He seemed to be amazed by the person in front of him, and his eyes were gentle with surprise.
A faint smile appeared on the man's face and he took a few steps forward.
"Xunxun, you are so beautiful today."
The man walked to the passenger door and opened it for Gu Xun like a gentleman.
Gu Xun smiled and walked towards the man, "You are still so handsome."
Hearing the compliment, the curve of the man's mouth became more perfect. After getting in the car, he personally fastened the seat belt for Gu Xun.
The car was filled with the unique, clean, cool scent of a man, which made Gu Xun feel unexpectedly at ease.
The car started slowly.
"You must be very busy these two days." Gu Xun glanced at the man slightly sideways, and vaguely saw a hint of darkness in the man's eyes.
The man replied briskly, "It's okay. Everything has been taken care of. No one will bother you."
Gu Xun wanted to say thank you, but just as the words were on the tip of her tongue, she remembered the way this man always frowned and told her not to say thank you. In the end, she swallowed the words and turned them into a "hmm."
The two chatted for a while and soon arrived at their destination.
It's a seaside restaurant.
The waiter politely took the two to a private room on the third floor.
It is called a private room, but it is actually a large open-air balcony.
Now the sun has completely sunk into the horizon and the sky is gradually getting dark. There is a large and stylish parasol on this open-air platform. The fence next to it is full of vine-wrapped roses, and the dining table is surrounded by warm and romantic colored lights.
Roses and candles were also placed on the wooden dining table.
And outside the fence is the seaside.
The white waves hit the beach again and again and then go back, and the cool sea breeze makes people feel comfortable.
The whole atmosphere looks warm and romantic.
