Chapter 493 Gu Chenzhou Extra 9
The moonlight was like water, sprinkling on Qingwu's body, outlining her thin shoulders, like an exquisite ink painting.
This reminded Gu Chenzhou of the Song Dynasty white porcelain Guanyin statue in his study. It was as white as snow and as smooth as jade, yet so fragile that it seemed like it would break at the slightest touch.
"I don't want to be trapped in this place for the rest of my life, and I don't want to marry that drunk old man..."
Gu Chenzhou couldn't bear to listen anymore, what about marrying an old man.
He is not an old man.
Gu Chenzhou stretched out his long arms and wrapped her tightly in his arms, as if he wanted to merge her into his body, his chin gently resting on the top of Qingwu's head.
"Not again."
His voice was low and firm, with an unmistakable tenderness.
"Come with me, I will protect you and won't let anyone hurt you."
Qing Wu suddenly raised her head, her gaze darting into the surging dark currents in Gu Chenzhou's eyes.
Gu Chenzhou's slender fingers slowly stroked the red and swollen corners of Qingwu's eyes, and his thumb gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, as if he was touching an extremely precious and fragile treasure, gently and carefully.
"Come to my city, it's my home. I have a lot of real estate, you can choose where to live and go wherever you want."
His voice was lower and softer, like a breeze brushing past your ears.
"You can grow the flowers you like and read the books you want. No one can bully you anymore."
"Whatever you want to do, I will support you."
"As long as you want, the whole world will be yours."
In Gu Chenzhou's description, a wonderful world full of infinite possibilities slowly unfolds before Qingwu.
Gu Chenzhou told Qingwu about a beautiful future that she had longed for.
It was no longer a shabby adobe house, but a magnificent palace, and she became a princess on the throne.
Qingwu had never heard of such a world before, and her eyes were full of longing.
Gu Chenzhou felt even more distressed when he saw this, but suddenly there was a sound of knocking on the door.
Qingwu's whole body was stiff, but Gu Chenzhou protected her even tighter and draped his suit jacket over her shoulders when he stood up.
"Hide behind me." He looked back at her with gentle yet firm eyes.
The moment the door was kicked open, the crisp sound of rotten wood breaking mixed with the rustling of dirt falling.
Qing Wu subconsciously clenched the corner of her clothes, and when her knuckles turned white, she was enveloped by a warmth——
It was Gu Chenzhou. He quickly pulled Qingwu half an inch behind him and used his body to block the possible danger.
The suit jacket on his shoulders still carried the clear and soft sandalwood scent of his body. The fragrance lingered faintly at the tip of Qingwu's nose, slightly relieving her tension.
When the edge of the suit jacket gently brushed against Qingwu's earlobe, she heard Gu Chenzhou's low and gentle voice: "Don't be afraid."
At this moment, the morning light slanted in from the gap of the broken door that was kicked open, forming a bright ray of light.
The light fell squarely on Gu Chenzhou's straight back, giving him a layer of cold silver outline, making him look like a sculpture, tall and majestic.
He stood at the intersection of light and shadow, the line of his suit trousers as straight as a knife, and Qingwu behind him could see the veins on the back of his clenched fist twitching slightly.
His father's shouting seemed to be blunted when it hit him. The dirty words rolled into the air and were frozen into pieces by the frost that suddenly condensed in his eyes.
