Chapter 516 Unless we have to, we will not take risks
Gu Manman tried her best to hold back the tears in her eyes, and rubbed her hand on Gu Zichen's head.
"What nonsense are you talking about! You are a child, how could I let you take risks?"
Gu Zichen remained firm: "I am a man and you are a woman. It is impossible for me to let a woman take risks."
She chuckled softly, her shoulders trembling with laughter: "What kind of man, you can be considered a boy at most. Okay, you wait here, I will take down all these curtains."
With that said, Gu Manman already took action and pulled down all the curtains hanging on the window.
Many pieces of long curtains were scattered on the floor, patchworked together with the fabrics placed on the side.
Gu Manman squatted on the ground, arranged the curtains on the ground piece by piece, and then pieced and tied all the curtains together.
Gu Zichen was helping her from the side.
After she tied all the curtains, she stood up holding the curtains.
Gu Manman walked to the window, opened the window, and then threw the curtains that had tied all the curtains together like a giant long rope from the window.
I don’t know if it’s not long enough, but the long rope tied into the curtains stopped in the center, still a long way from the ground.
"not long enough."
Gu Manman pulled the "long rope" back from the window in frustration.
Gradually, Gu Zichen turned his attention to the table beside him.
There were a lot of fabrics on the table. Those fabrics were all of the highest quality and were used to make clothes for Gu Zichen and Li Zichen.
He picked up a piece of fabric, stretched out his hands and pulled it, and finally nodded with satisfaction.
"use this."
When Gu Manman turned around, she saw Gu Zichen holding up a piece of cloth on the table.
"Is this ok?"
Gu Zichen nodded slightly: "There should be no problem."
The afternoon also slipped by minute by second, and I was busy.
Gu Manman and Gu Zichen used all the fabric on the table for the curtains, and a "giant rope" appeared on the ground that was longer than before, like a giant python.
"Let's try again."
She lowered the "long rope" from the window again. This time, the "long rope" was close to reaching the ground.
It's just a meter short.
Gu Zichen frowned: "There's still one meter left."
Gu Manman was no longer worried: "It doesn't matter if it's one meter. I'll grab the tail of the rope and jump off. The distance is only one meter, so there's no big problem."
He looked at her: "You jump down? Didn't you agree that I would climb down from the window?"
Rejection was written all over her face: "How can you?! I will never let you do such a dangerous thing. Not to mention that the second floor is five to eight meters high, and you have to jump one meter away. How can I
rest assured!?"
He still wanted to fight for it, "It doesn't matter, my motor skills are pretty good."
"No! If anything happens, you will fall from a height of five to eight meters! No, I absolutely cannot let you take the risk!"
Gu Manman sternly refused.
Gu Zichen said calmly: "Then are you going to take this risk?"
She pursed her lips: "My mobile phone is in my bag, and I left the bag in the lobby! If there is a mobile phone, we can ask for help."
She looked at Gu Zichen seriously: "Besides, it's better for me to take this risk than for you to take this risk. Do you understand? You are still young. As your mother, I should protect you! Instead of letting you take risks!"
After saying that, she froze and put her hand on her forehead.
"Sorry, I said some weird things again."
Gu Zichen shook his head and put his little hand on the back of Gu Manman's hand.
"Let's wait. Wait until night and see if anyone will find us and open the door. Maybe when Li Jinze comes back, he will realize it."
Gu Manman paused: "But aren't you hungry?"
His little hand slowly tightened and held her big hand.
"We shouldn't take risks unless we have to, okay?"
Gu Manman paused for a moment, then took Gu Zichen in front of her into her arms.
She nodded, her beautiful eyes filled with tears again.
"Well! We won't take risks unless we have to!"
…
In the hall, Gu Qingqing waited for a long time before Li Zichen took out the apple. She stood up from the sofa impatiently.
"Zi Chen, why did you go into the kitchen and not come out for so long?"
As soon as he rushed to the kitchen, he saw Li Zichen putting the kitchen knife aside in a panic.
The water in the faucet was still flowing. He was holding a shapeless apple piece in his hand, standing next to the faucet and washing it.
"Mom, just wait a little longer and you'll be fine soon."
The servant on the side saw Li Zichen's injured finger with sharp eyes and exclaimed: "Oh my God! Young Master, your hand is injured! It's bleeding!"
After hearing what the servant said, Gu Qingqing noticed that the sliced apple pieces placed aside were stained with a lot of bright red blood.
The plate on the other side contained some clean apple pieces.
Li Zichen shook his head, and then put the washed apple pieces in his hands on the plate.
"I'm fine."
The servant couldn't stand it anymore, so he pulled Li Zichen away from the faucet, and then held his little hand: "How can it be okay? Such a big hole!"
Other servants quickly ran in with medical kits.
One by one, they patiently cleaned Li Zichen's wounds and applied medicine: "Young Master Zichen, how did you hurt your hand?"
Li Zichen looked at the kitchen knife not far away: "I didn't find the fruit knife, so I had to use the kitchen knife to peel and cut the apple, and accidentally cut my hand."
Not to mention that the sharp blade of a kitchen knife is large, large in area, and relatively heavy. Just say that the surface of the apple is curved, and it is a bit inconvenient to peel it with a fruit knife, let alone peeling it with a kitchen knife!
It is especially easy to hurt yourself.
As servants, they would not dare to do this kind of thing casually.
As the young master of the Li family, Li Zichen was spoiled and never held a knife, let alone him.
"Then young Master Zichen, why didn't you say anything? Even if you were hurt, you didn't say anything! If the young master knew about it, he would definitely blame us!"
Li Zichen shook his head: "It's okay."
He looked at Gu Qingqing: "Mom, what's on the plate are the apple pieces I washed. I accidentally cut my hand when I was peeling them. When I cut them into pieces, there was a lot of blood on the apple pieces."
He felt a little guilty: "I have already washed the dishes on the plate. If there is not enough on the plate, I will wash them for you again..."
Gu Qingqing looked at the blood-stained apple chunks in front of him and frowned: "You want me to eat these blood-stained apple chunks? How can I eat this?!"
She seemed a little annoyed. What's the difference between this kind of apple chunks and the dirty apple chunks that fell on the ground? They just washed them and gave them to her to eat?! Are they dirty?!
