If the male protagonist in the book could overcome his grudges early on, he might have become a legitimate couple with the female protagonist long ago.
Before finishing reading the book, Su Xiaoli glanced at Gu Feihan silently.
Gu Feihan was still reading a certain page attentively, and Su Xiaoli also lowered her head and continued reading the book.
There was a knock on the door.
Gu Feihan acted as if he didn't hear anything. He didn't move at all, and didn't even raise his eyelids.
Su Xiaoli glanced at the icy face, stood up and went to open the door.
Lu Sinian looked at Su Xiaoli's smiling face, a little dazed.
He couldn't describe the clean and bright feeling, he just felt his heart suddenly beat violently, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.
I had a lot of things to say to myself before we met, but when we really met, I didn’t know what to say.
"Brother." Su Xiaoli prepared herself mentally and called out.
Lu Sinian's image at this time was actually not very good. It was already early morning when he finished packing all the things that needed to be brought to the capital yesterday.
He tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. He finally managed to get up and set off just after 4 o'clock, and finally arrived here before noon.
After driving for 7 or 8 hours straight, his face showed obvious fatigue, but he was not sleepy at all.
"Xiao Li..."
Lu Sinian's voice was slightly ethereal, tired and hoarse, "Why did you leave without saying hello?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Lu Sinian himself became aware of his own tone, and couldn't help but bring out the anxiety and blame that he least wanted to say.
I clearly want to see her so much, I clearly just want to hug her tightly, I clearly just want to show her the image of a perfect "brother".
Lu Sinian felt that he had gone too far.
He lowered his head slightly, his tone apologetic, "I'm worried, and my grandparents will be worried too."
Su Xiaoli quietly looked at Lu Sinian, who was exhausted but still refused to say a harsh word to her. Suddenly... she felt a little guilty.
But at this moment, she seemed to have a different understanding of the title "brother"...
Grandma said that Lu Sinian looks very much like dad Su Jianguo.
Su Xiaoli recalled it carefully and realized that what her grandmother meant was not the appearance, but the gentle and considerate attitude towards her family. There was indeed some resemblance.
It turns out that this is how "brother" and "father" feel towards their family.
Acceptance, solidity, depth, and silent care that is always there.
The maternal love that Dr. Su lacked in her previous life was made up by Zhang Yun, and the role of giving fatherly love as strong as a mountain, which was also the thing she envied most about "Su Xiaoli", seemed to be made up for by Lu Sinian.
Lu Sinian - a "brother" who is like a "father", no matter what he is called.
Her mindset became right and her expression softened.
As if she had gotten to know Lu Sinian all over again, Su Xiaoli looked at him with a natural sense of familiarity.
"I didn't mean to not contact you, I just don't want to be in the hustle and bustle at home. In fact, I kind of... don't like the hustle and bustle." Su Xiaoli explained softly and honestly.
Lu Sinian raised his head and looked at her deeply.
Xiao Li has grown a little since the first time I met her a year ago.
At that time, she was a young man who rushed forward without hesitation to teach the woman from Country C a lesson. Now, she is more like a low-key and introverted girl.
Lu Sinian let out a long sigh in his heart.
After all, she is always her, and she is here.
I will continue to play the role of a mild-tempered person excellently and make use of everything I can, as long as I can see her every day and get closer to her.
Protect her, get her.
I can endure it very well, I definitely can, even if I am jealous to the point of going crazy, even if I am greedy and insatiable.
If you want to enjoy her brilliance, you must first endure some inner rot.
Lu Sinian looked at Su Xiaoli, concealing the emotions in his eyes, and then smiled as usual: "I brought you a gift, not a graduation gift, but a gift for further study."
"But grandpa has already given a lot."
"That was given by grandpa, and this is given by my brother. You must accept it." Lu Sinian's voice was gentle, but his tone was firm.
"Well, okay." This time Su Xiaoli did not refuse, but gave Lu Sinian a smile.
Lu Sinian felt warm in his heart and all his tiredness disappeared.
"Let's go in and sit down and drink some water. I'll take you to the hotel to rest later." Su Xiaoli suggested. Lu Sinian's lips were chapped.
When Gu Feihan saw the two people coming in, he was too lazy to get up. He just raised his eyelids slightly and said in a light tone, "So soon?"
It takes 8 hours to get here from Shilu City, and it’s only 11 o’clock in the morning.
Lu Sinian smiled faintly and said nothing, not caring about his attitude at all.
Anyway, he wasn't here to see Gu Feihan.
Su Xiaoli poured a glass of water for Lu Sinian, who drank it all in one gulp. He was thirsty and hungry, but he didn't care about that. He turned to Su Xiaoli and said, "The interior of the building is almost ready. I can take you to have a look today."
"So soon?" Su Xiaoli was surprised. It was said before that the store would not open until September.
"Well, there is service staff training before the opening. I have already arranged for someone to do it. There is also an office and a special lounge for you in the building. Would you like to go and take a look now?"
It seemed like Lu Sinian was completely ignoring Gu Feihan and was just chatting with Su Xiaoli.
Gu Feihan’s complexion became increasingly worse.
Su Xiaoli mentioned this gift to him before. Since it was Mr. Lu's intention for his granddaughter, he didn't know what to say at the time. But he didn't expect it to happen so soon.
It seems that the man surnamed Lu is coming with great force this time.
"Well... why don't we go and see if the hotel rooms are ready? You can rest directly in the hotel." Su Xiaoli wanted Lu Sinian to go to bed quickly. His eyes were full of red bloodshot from staying up late.
"The guest room is good. I also have a special room inside." Lu Sinian coaxed Su Xiaoli.
"Well, then wait for me." Su Xiaoli was straightforward and went back to the house to get her bag.
Gu Feihan glanced at her back, then stood up and followed her into the house.
Lu Sinian watched as Gu Feihan casually closed the door, his face darkened, and a complex look flashed across his deep eyes.
In less than half a minute, the two came out of the house together, and Gu Feihan had a car key in his hand.
Lu Sinian glanced at Gu Feihan, lowered his eyes, and showed no emotion at all. He stood up calmly and said, "Xiao Li, get in my car. I'll drive ahead and show you the way."
Su Xiaoli nodded and followed Lu Sinian out.
Gu Feihan gritted his teeth behind the two of them.
Okay, the guy named Lu is quite brave.
He used to be more restrained in northern Hebei, but as soon as he came to the capital, he became more blatant.
Su Xiaoli sat in the passenger seat of Lu Sinian's car. Gu Feihan was driving behind him. He wanted to speed up and crash into the car, but when he thought of Xiaoli who was also in the car, he resisted the urge to step on the accelerator.
Lu Sinian drove the car directly into the underground garage - a brand new ruby-red sports car appeared before his eyes.
He took out a gift box from the car and handed it to Su Xiaoli, "Your gift. The color of the car body is customized for you. I remember you had a red suit."
Su Xiaoli was stunned.
Matching a sports car with clothes?! (End of this chapter)
