Chapter 17 Are you throwing a tantrum?
“…”
Xu Ruochu widened his eyes and looked at him in surprise.
This strange yet intimate behavior caught her off guard.
She struggled but in vain.
Gu Yixiao rested one hand on the wall beside her and held the back of her head with the other hand, holding her tightly.
Xu Ruochu was forced to endure his violent attack, and her head felt dizzy.
After a long time, he finally let her go.
"You are not allowed to find a boyfriend in the future. I don't allow you to fall in love!" he ordered coldly.
Xu Ruochu was breathing heavily, his cheeks were burning, his chest was heaving violently, but his eyes were looking at him stubbornly, without blinking.
She wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, her eyes felt sore and tears soon flowed out.
"You're almost engaged, why are you doing this?! I don't want to be the third party, and I don't want to ruin your marriage with Sister Lin Yuan!"
"Who said we can't cancel the wedding? Besides, it's enough for me to know that you are not a mistress." Gu Yixiao's tone was cold and his eyes were sharp.
Her refusal made him very unhappy.
It is undeniable that when he heard her confess her feelings in her friend's restaurant that day, saying that she liked him and had a crush on him, he was surprised but also felt a hint of joy that was difficult to detect.
It was a very strange feeling, not liking it but also looking forward to it. He had never felt this way before, so he quietly flipped through her lost notebook...
When he knew her inner world, he suddenly realized that he shouldn't have been so impulsive and agreed to repay her life-saving grace by marrying her.
Before, he was in chains and couldn't ask questions about whether Xu Ruchu liked him or not. But now, after he had made it clear with Lin Yuan, she was challenging his limits again.
Then what about the cancellation of the engagement proposed by him and Lin Yuan?!
So what about his plan to reappear in her side with a clean slate and decide to try to get along with her?!
"No! I am! I destroyed your relationship! I don't want to stay with you, please let me go!"
Xu Ruochu was very emotional, his voice was a little hoarse and filled with tears.
Her tears blurred her vision, and she kept wiping her eyes, her voice filled with pleading. "Cousin, I beg you! Don't do this!"
Gu Yixiao's hand slowly slid towards her cheek and wiped away the tears from her face.
His deep voice sounded, with a hint of helplessness and mixed with his usual coldness: "Stop crying and take a rest. No one dares to gossip when I'm here."
After saying this, he loosened his grip on her, then took the key from her hand and opened the door.
Xu Ruochu stood there in a daze.
Gu Yixiao walked into the living room and saw no movement behind him. He turned around and looked at Xu Ruchu's tearful face. He frowned slightly and said, "What are you still standing there for? Go back to your room and sleep!"
Xu Ruochu sniffed and looked up at him: "I...I don't need you to care about me."
"Hmm?" Gu Yixiao raised his eyebrows.
She puffed out her chest and spoke word by word, "You can go now. I know how to sleep by myself. You don't need to worry about me."
Gu Yixiao stared at her for a moment, then suddenly sneered, "Xu Ruchu, are you throwing a tantrum? When did you learn this trick?"
"I didn't!" Xu Ruochu retorted, then lowered his head again.
She wouldn't act like a spoiled brat, she just wanted him to give up on him.
Gu Yixiao looked at her deeply, and without saying anything else, he took her hand, pulled her into the room, and then into the bedroom.
He pushed her to sit on the bed and covered her with the quilt: "Have a good sleep and don't let your mind wander."
"I'm not imagining anything." Xu Ruochu insisted on her position. She didn't want to have too much entanglement with him.
"Okay, whatever you say is what I will do. Go to bed." After saying that, Gu Yixiao walked out of the room.
Xu Ruochu lay on the bed, feeling inexplicably uneasy.
Is he caring about her?
Is his treatment of her completely opposite to that in the previous life?
Why? Will she be tortured and killed by him again in the future?
She closed her eyes and tried to calm herself down.
…
Gu Yixiao walked out of the bedroom, but instead of leaving, he fell asleep on the sofa in the living room.
He was tall and straight, and seemed very uncomfortable lying on the 1.5-meter sofa. He could only put his feet on the armrest of the sofa.
He was completely sleepless. He passed the time staring at the ceiling, and couldn't help but think of the scene of kissing her just now.
His lips and tongue still lingered with her sweet fragrance, and he actually missed it a little...
There was a curve on his lips, he seemed to be smiling, but it seemed that he just couldn't help it.
This was the first time he took the initiative to kiss someone, and although it was a forceful predation, his heartbeat still accelerated.
As for Xu Ruo's first love...
How dare you?
He is single again, so why should she find a partner?
A relationship that is not approved by the family does not count.
This is his rule!
The next morning.
Xu Ruochu woke up and noticed some movement on the sofa on his way to the bathroom.
She was stunned for a moment, then looked carefully and saw that it was Gu Yixiao.
At this time, he was wearing a black suit and sitting on the sofa handling business.
"Why are you still here?" Xu Ruchu asked in confusion. Didn't he leave last night?
"Well, if my uncle hadn't asked me to look after you, would I have stayed?" Gu Yixiao glanced back at her and said coldly. "Your phone is off, and you didn't get home until late at night. They're worried."
Xu Ruochu curled his lips.
Seeing her like this, Gu Yixiao couldn't help but tease her: "Why, do you want to learn to rebel? How dare you disobey your elders and ignore me?"
"You're the rebellious one!" Xu Ruochu counterattacked, and then she said, "I have to go to school and don't want to argue with you."
After that, she ran to the bathroom to wash up.
After tying her hair and leaving the bathroom, her cell phone rang.
She answered the phone and it was a friend calling.
"Xiaochu, my car was hit! I'm really pissed off by that driver. She was driving too fast and didn't look at the road, and she scratched my car! I've cornered her here, so you and Xiaomo, come and give me some courage."
"Ah? Are you okay?"
"It's okay. I wanted to come over early to bring you some snacks for breakfast, but I didn't expect this to happen... Come quickly, I'm near the bus stop two stops away from you!"
"...Okay, I'll go over now. Don't be impulsive, protect yourself!"
After hanging up the phone, Xu Ruochu didn't even bother to carry his schoolbag and hurried to the door.
Seeing this, Gu Yixiao couldn't help but frown and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry? Where are you going?"
"My friend had some problems, and I went to help."
Gu Yixiao looked at her petite and fragile appearance and pondered for a moment: "How can you help? I'll make a phone call and solve it."
"Don't worry about this. My friend is impulsive, so I have to stay by her side to stop her." Xu Ruochu said softly.
Gu Yixiao didn't comment and didn't ask any further questions.
He glanced at the milk, eggs, and buns he had bought on the dining table early in the morning, then picked up a portion of food and stuffed it into her hand. "Eat first, I'll go with you to deal with this."
Xu Ruochu was stunned for a moment, then took the thing and nodded.
She followed him out.
