Three years ago, the He family suffered a disaster. As a military commander, his father was suddenly arrested. The superiors investigated and collected a lot of evidence about him. During his tenure, he took bribes on a large scale and the amount was huge. The money was enough to sentence him to death. The family was in chaos.
It became a mess, and the only one who could save the He family at that time was the powerful Gu family.
Her mother said to her, Yi Ning, didn't you have some friendship with the third young master of the Gu family? Go and beg him and let the Gu family help us.
Mother didn't know that she hadn't contacted Gu Nai for more than four years. She didn't even know where he was, so how could she ask him for help.
His father is still in prison, and his mother is frowning and sighing all day long. He Yining, who has just graduated, feels like he is living in a dark cave without seeing the light of day every day.
Finally, she decided to seek help from the Gu family.
When the He family was young, the parents of the He and Gu families were in two different armies and belonged to two factions. They didn't like each other. When the He family was in trouble, the Gu family simply stood by and watched the incident, and the possibility of helping them was almost zero.
But she wanted to take a gamble. For the sake of this shaky home, she had to take a gamble, even if there was no result.
So, on a snowy night, He Yining knelt alone in front of the Gu family's door. She didn't know how long she knelt. Her body gradually began to stiffen, and her head also hung down. However, the door of the Gu family was closed, and no one paid any attention to her.
Poor stubborn girl.
Just when she thought she couldn't hold on anymore, suddenly, she heard steady footsteps in the snow.
She raised her numb head, and the first thing she saw was a pair of black men's military boots, which made a squeaking sound in the snow.
She looked up along the shoes and saw a man wearing a black windbreaker with evil eyes.
He was so tall that he blocked the fine pieces of snow behind him, and his eyes were as deep as the vast and quiet night sky, infinitely distant.
She trembled with frozen lips and trembled her teeth as she uttered a few words, "Please help me."
He looked down at her like a lofty emperor.
When the wind blew, the windbreaker he wore made a rustling sound, and his clothes danced like an open sail.
His voice sounded distant and empty, and as he turned around, it was clearly heard in his ears, and it was wild and domineering.
"Marry me and become the fourth young lady of the Gu family. I will help you."
She looked at him in shock.
"Gu Nianxi..." She knew that he was Gu Nai's younger brother, and they had met once.
"Don't call my name." He turned around coldly, "Think about it."
"Don't think about it, I promise you."
Until he walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau with him, He Yining was still in a dream, she was married!
Her current leg disease was the root cause of the disease three years ago, and at that time she naively thought that Gu Nianxi would help him, perhaps because of Gu Nai's relationship.
However, she thought wrong.
"Gu Nai." He Yining bit her lip, "You have no right to ask me. When I needed you most, there was no news from you."
She loosened the belt around her fingers and suddenly said loudly: "Stop the car."
Gu Nai's expression was painful, and he parked the car on the side of the road. He Yining opened the door and ran out, but his thin back had a kind of upright tenacity.
He leaned on the steering wheel and sighed helplessly. Was he really going to lose his Yi Ning?
He is not willing to give in, really not willing to give in.
Gu Nai restarted the car and was about to leave when suddenly a sports car sped past him. The license plate number was that of Gu Nianxi's car that he was familiar with.
He caught up and saw Gu Nianxi driving, with a young girl sitting in the passenger seat, and the sound in the car was deafening.
Gu Nai followed behind and honked the horn.
Gu Nianxi glanced in the rearview mirror, ignored it, and instead drove the car faster.
If he didn't stop, Gu Nai kept chasing him. The two cars refused to give way to each other on the early morning highway, becoming a fresh sight.
Finally, the sports car had to stop because the road ahead was congested.
Gu Nai took the opportunity to stop on the side of it. He rolled down the window and said with an angry look, "Xiao Si, who is this woman?"
Gu Nianxi wore sunglasses and curled her lips arrogantly, "Does it have anything to do with you?"
"If Yi Ning sees it, she will be sad."
sad?
Gu Nianxi sneered. That woman had no heart at all. She only had Gu Nai in her eyes. Even if he slept with another woman in front of her, she would probably have to get a safety net for him.
"What do you want to say? You win, she is yours." Gu Nianxi's casual tone seemed to be transferring a commodity.
"Xiao Si, you can't do this to Yi Ning."
"It's my business how I treat her, and I don't need you to tell me what to do." He stretched out his long arms to hug the girl next to him, and caressed her delicate white skin ambiguously, "If you feel uncomfortable, you can just talk to her.
I challenge you, welcome at any time."
"you..."
"Hey, handsome guy, it's rude to argue on the street." Lin Yike hugged Gu Nianxi's arm and said with a smile.
"Ignore him, let's go." Gu Nianxi started the car, turned around on the double yellow line, and drove directly towards the other lane.
"Little Four." Gu Nai slapped the steering wheel bitterly. This guy obviously did it on purpose.
He Yining returned home, took out his toolbox and squatted under the courtyard wall to repair the tire of the electric car. He was used to holding a scalpel and had dexterous hands. After tinkering for a while, he was able to figure out how many punctures had been made in the tire.
The hole needs to be filled with new rubber.
She sat there, lowering her head while repairing, and occasionally wiping the sweat on her forehead with the back of her hand.
She is no longer the eldest daughter of the He family. Over the years, she has learned to darn and mend, learn to be self-reliant, and learn to serve with care. She walks on thin ice and is cautious every step she takes.
"Ah, isn't this Dr. He? What are you doing?"
A crisp female voice sounded from above her head. He Yining raised her head and saw Lin Yike. She recovered quickly from her postoperative wound and was discharged from the hospital within a few days.
"Can't you see?" He Yining cares and loves his patients, but it's a different matter for a woman who always provokes him.
She continued to repair the tire carefully, polishing it bit by bit with a small hammer, and then applied glue to attach the new rubber.
"How can you do such rough work? Dr. He has a scalpel in his hands."
He Yining ignored him and seemed not to hear him at all.
"Brother Nianxi, please help Dr. He." Lin Yike suddenly ran away with a smile.
He Yining was shocked to realize that Gu Nianxi was also there.
She raised her head and saw him standing not far away, with one hand in his trouser pocket and the other arm around Lin Yike's shoulder, looking at her coldly.
Her face was covered in black ash stains, and her hands were dirty. She didn't look like someone from a wealthy family at all.
She stopped what she was doing and stared at him striding towards him.
He glanced at the parts piled up like a hill on the ground, then kicked them around. There was a basin of water for tire repair, and he turned it over at this time, and half of the basin of water was poured on He Yining's body.
, she was already in a state of embarrassment, but now she looked more like a refugee. Her hair was wet, her clothes were wet, and her face seemed to have been painted with a brush.
She stared at him in disbelief, her wet clothes clinging to her body, but the coldness in his eyes was not even close to that.
He looked down at her and raised the corners of his mouth sarcastically, "Don't embarrass me here, our Gu family wants to save face."
