Chapter 18: Gradually Taking Over Her Heart



Chapter 18 Gradually Taking Over Her Heart

When Gu Jingchu looked at Chen Yuan's face that was as radiant as a lotus and her watery eyes that were full of disgust.

The anger in my heart suddenly surged up.

She looked at her eldest brother, afraid that he would not have this expression.

Gu Jingchu lowered his head and kissed her without thinking.

Shen Yuan quickly turned her head, and his kiss fell on the side of Shen Yuan's face.

The subtle fragrance emanating from the woman made Gu Jingchu feel as if he was bewitched.

The next moment, Shen Yuan raised his foot and stepped heavily on his boots.

The woman's eyes were red. She pushed him away with all her strength and slapped him hard in the face.

Gu Jingchu placed his hands on the rockery, looking at her rejection and disgust, "You won't let me touch you? What about my eldest brother? Can he touch you?"

A chill enveloped Shen Yuan, and she was extremely angry.

But when he looked at the person in front of him, he quickly calmed down.

"Gu Jingchu, let me say it again. I have nothing to do with you anymore. It was you who erased the affection between us bit by bit."

"So, don't accuse me from the perspective of a betrayer. You don't deserve it."

"Is this why you want to break off the engagement with me? Yuan'er, for so many years, everyone knows that you are my future wife."

Gu Jingchu's eyes were bloodshot.

"It doesn't have to be me. I think you and Lin Wanyin are a good match."

Chen Yuan sneered and motioned Gu Jingchu to look at the person standing not far away.

Lin Wanyin, wearing a light green dress, stood not far from the two of them, watching the scene in disbelief.

Gu Jingchu looked at Lin Wanyin and felt annoyed.

While he was hesitating, Chen Yuan pushed Gu Jingchu away and walked out without looking back.

As soon as Chen Yuan left, someone told Gu Huailing what happened behind the rockery.

Gu Jingchu stared intently at the direction where Chen Yuan had left, with a gloomy expression on his face.

Deep down, he was filled with resentment and anger, as well as a hint of jealousy that he didn't want to show to others.

Gu Jingchu's face was extremely gloomy, and his five fingers were clenched into fists.

He punched the rockery hard.

Blood dripped down the finger bones.

"Cousin, you're hurt!" Lin Wanyin exclaimed and ran over.

"Why are you here?" Gu Jingchu stared at Lin Wanyin with a gloomy look.

Lin Wanyin looked up at Gu Jingchu timidly.

There was a mist in his eyes, as if he had been extremely frightened.

"I'm here to give my cousin some osmanthus honey. Last time, he said he liked it. Wanyin made it specially for me."

Gu Jingchu pressed his eyebrows. The person who liked osmanthus honey was not there again.

What does he want to do with this osmanthus honey?

The more he looked at it, the more he found the osmanthus honey annoying. Gu Jingchu raised his hand and knocked the osmanthus honey out of Lin Wanyin's hand.

"I hate osmanthus honey the most, so please don't give it to me in the future."

Lin Wanyin looked at her red and swollen wrist and cursed Gu Jingchu a thousand times in her heart.

Her face was still gentle. "Next time, I'll make plum wine for you. You must not hurt your hand. Can I accompany you to see the court doctor?"

Along the way, Chen Yuan was in a very bad mood.

As soon as she left the Gu Mansion, she saw Gu Huailing's black gold wooden carriage parked at the gate.

Sanjiu greeted him respectfully.

“Miss Shen, please get in the car. The master ordered me to take you back.”

Chen Yuan nodded, and just as she stepped onto the carriage, she saw Gu Huailing looking up at her.

Those phoenix eyes were filled with emotions that she couldn't understand.

The carriage moved forward.

"Sir, I can go back by myself." Chen Yuan wanted to get off the carriage.

"Sit tight." Gu Huailing's eyebrows were indifferent. Without his instructions, the carriage did not stop for a moment.

Chen Yuan felt a little guilty, and I subconsciously smelled my clothes.

The smell of alcohol on it made her feel uneasy.

It’s all that bastard Gu Jingchu’s fault. Why is he going crazy for no reason?

"In the future, if there is no urgent matter, I will see you off when Ayuan goes home." He said in a nonchalant tone.

Shen Yuan suddenly became nervous.

Gu Huailing’s first reaction was that he knew what had just happened.

Her fingertips curled up unconsciously, and an indescribable feeling spread in her heart.

I had just agreed to him, but then I was discovered to be having an affair with Gu Jingchu.

How would Gu Huailing see himself?

"Okay." Shen Yuan's tone was a little dull.

Gu Huailing lowered his gaze and saw the woman's red wrist.

"Did Ayuan just meet Jingchu?"

Just as he thought, Shen Yuan nodded and did not intend to make any excuses.

Inside the carriage, everything suddenly became quiet.

Gu Huailing's face was hidden in the semi-darkness, and his narrow and long phoenix eyes were like frost condensed in winter snow.

Shen Yuan thought he would say something, but he said nothing.

He simply put his arm around her waist and lifted her onto his lap.

Chen Yuan was a little surprised, his body froze and he dared not move.

Gu Huailing took out a bottle of ointment from the medicine box beside him.

His eyes were fixed on Shen Yuan's wrist.

The marks on the slender white wrist, where someone had gripped it hard, were particularly terrifying.

Gu Huailing took out the ointment and rubbed it gently on Shen Yuan's wrist.

The light inside the carriage was dim, Gu Huailing's brows were lowered, and the air around him was frighteningly cold.

"I'll send two secret guards to you tomorrow, okay?" Gu Huailing said in a light tone, but his hands did not stop moving.

"It's not about monitoring A Yuan. I had this plan the day you were in danger."

"I'm taking a few days off. How about I take you to eat red fish tomorrow?"

How does he know that he likes to eat redfish?

Yes, you can't refuse.

Fortunately, we arrived at Qingshi Lane soon.

Chen Yuan didn't let Gu Huailing see her off. The moment the carriage stopped, she immediately jumped off and left without looking back.

Gu Huailing smiled to himself while sitting in the carriage.

She ran so fast, was she afraid that I would force her to tell her something?

What can I force you to ask?

A Yuan knew how much she liked Gu Jingchu in the past.

If it wasn't that day in Huichun Hall, she said she wanted to get rid of this marriage.

I'm afraid I'll just be a bystander forever.

But now?

Even if she wanted to retreat, she couldn't let him.

He will occupy her heart bit by bit, and from then on she will only have him in her eyes and heart.

The bluestone alley is not long.

Chen Yuan walked for a long time before he suppressed the dense bitterness in his heart.

"Sister, are you back?"

As soon as he entered the yard, Shen Zhao came over.

His ears were a little red, and he looked at Chen Yuan and hesitated, "I want to ask my sister for something."

"What do you want?" As far as I can remember, A-di has never asked me for anything.

What's more, whenever there is something good, give it to her first.

Chen Zhao scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "I want to ask my sister for that hundred-year-old snow lotus."

I know that it was my sister’s dowry.

Chen Zhao quickly added, "I know the whereabouts of the other snow lotus. Once I find it, I will return it to my sister."

Chen Yuan looked at A Di, knowing why, but deliberately asked: "What use does Zhao Er have for the snow lotus? Are you going to give it to someone?"

Chen Zhao's face turned even redder. "It's for Gu Yao. She's at the perfect age, but she has a heart disease and I want to save her."

Chen Yuan nodded, "Zhao'er is kind-hearted. Then I want to ask you, if someone else has a heart disease, will you come to me for snow lotus?"

"Sister." Seeing that Shen Zhao's head was almost buried in the ground.

Chen Yuan stopped teasing him, "The snow lotus is with Elder Chen. Yao'er's heart disease has been treated by Elder Chen. It's time for the snow lotus to be used. Go find Elder Chen and give the medicine to Yao'er personally."

It turned out that my elder sister had already helped Gu Yao treat her heart disease.

Shen Zhao felt his face getting hotter and hotter, so he found an excuse and ran out.

Chen Yuan shook his head and laughed, his eyes suddenly falling on the rosewood box that Gu Yao had sent him that day.

The box was small and square. She took it and opened it.

It was like a bolt of thunder, and Chen Yuan's eyelids twitched!

What nonsense is she talking about!
