He put his arms around Yan Xiaojun and said, "Xiaojun, stop talking."
"Forget the River..."
"I said, stop talking." He was unusually calm, unlike the usual unruly and domineering young man of the Gu family. Normally, this slap would have made him furious, and it was normal for him to want to kill her.
However, he did not have a seizure.
Looking at her with indifferent eyes, he said, "I took this slap for her."
Lin Yue'er raised her head in confusion, the hand that hit him trembled slightly, "Are you going to do it for her?"
For the woman he loved, he was slapped by the woman he hated and hated the most?
Gu Wangchuan, how much do you really need to love her?
She lowered her head and smiled faintly, "I understand."
Although her cheeks hurt, even more than before, she understood his feelings for Yan Xiaojun deeply.
It turns out that for the woman he loves, he can abandon his self-esteem and put down his figure.
She never knew this.
Just then, a cold voice came in, "Lin Yuer, next time you hit someone, be more precise."
She raised her head and met Gu Xicen's slightly cold eyes.
Gu Wangchuan frowned, turned sideways, and looked at his brother as well, his eyes searching.
For some reason, Lin Yuer wanted to cry the moment she saw him, but she told herself to hold it back, she must hold it back, she could not shed tears in front of Gu Wangchuan and Yan Xiaojun again!
She bit her lip and bit it tightly. Because she was too forbearing, her thin shoulders were shaking.
Gu Xicen frowned, walked over quickly, and touched her injured cheek with his cold hands, "Cry if it hurts."
With one word, all her persistence was in vain.
Seeing Lin Yueer unreservedly releasing his emotions in front of Gu Xicen, Gu Wangchuan's eyes darkened, so deep that he couldn't even look to the bottom.
Gu Xicen stared at the person in her arms, with a trace of pity in her eyes. She raised her head and became clear again, "Brother, if you have anything to do, please leave first. I will take care of her."
Noticing that he no longer called Lin Yuer "sister-in-law", Gu Wangchuan lowered his eyes lightly and said nothing, just nodded. He turned around and hugged Yan Xiaojun, "Let's go."
"But..." Yan Xiaojun felt uncomfortable in her heart. This slap was more painful than the slap on her face, and she was even more hateful and unwilling!
What right does that woman have to hit him?!
Gu Wangchuan was not in the mood to explain or comfort her, so he hugged her and walked back.
Hearing their footsteps leaving, Lin Yuer quietly raised her head and looked at him with misty eyes, "Am I embarrassed?"
Especially in front of Gu Wangchuan and Yan Xiaojun.
Gu Xicen smiled and shook his head, "You performed very well today."
At least, if someone slaps you in the face, you know how to slap him back. Isn’t that great?
"Really?" Lin Yue'er sniffed, her cheeks hurting, and she felt a little embarrassed.
"Yeah." He nodded, and then said, "Wait here for a while." After saying that, he turned around and left.
Lin Yuer retracted back into the corner unsatisfactorily. This had almost become her habitual action after encountering setbacks and embarrassment.
Gu Xicen walked back to the restaurant and saw Gu Wangchuan paying the bill with an expressionless face. The red mark on the left cheek was very clear. Yan Xiaojun's face was not very good either. It could be seen that he was still angry about what happened just now.
He took a few steps over and said, "Brother, I have something to say."
Gu Wangchuan's movements were stagnant, and then he slowly turned around and said, "Is something wrong?"
"I just want to tell you." Gu Xicen did not hide her indifference to Yan Xiaojun.
Yan Xiaojun couldn't be more angry. He had held his breath just now, and he was even more angry when he saw him openly protecting Lin Yuer! Regardless of whether the two people got together in private, they were simply intimate because he was Wangchuan's younger brother.
relationship, he shouldn’t stand up for Lin Yuer!
She seemed to be playing devil's advocate and said deliberately, "Wangchuan and I are indistinguishable from each other. Are you afraid that I will hear anything?"
Gu Xicen's eyes swept over her lightly and nodded, "Well, this is our Gu family's business."
In a simple sentence, Yan Xiaojun will be punished invisibly.
What bothers her most is the fact that she can't enter the Gu family!
There was Lin Yuer before, and now there is Grandpa Gu! She once comforted herself that as long as Wangchuan's heart belonged to her, it was enough! But this didn't work, it didn't work at all. She couldn't stand another woman standing up to the eldest young lady of the Gu family.
title!
At this moment, having her scars uncovered by Gu Xicen in front of her face, she was so angry that she was about to burst into tears.
"Xiaojun, go to the car and wait for me."
Gu Wangchuan spoke, but she had to listen no matter how hard it was. She bit her lip, glared at Gu Xicen, and reluctantly left the door.
"If you have anything to say, tell me." Gu Wangchuan's attitude seemed a bit unfamiliar.
Gu Xicen lowered his eyes and remained silent for a few seconds before saying, "I will help Lin Yuer keep the child in her belly."
Gu Wangchuan raised his eyes and his eyes became a bit sharp, "Xicen, are you telling me that you would rather face that outsider than have trouble with me?"
Gu Xicen shook his head gently, "Brother, I never thought about having trouble with you."
"Then why are you still doing this?!" Because of his anger, his voice rose a bit, which immediately attracted the attention of other guests.
Gu Xicen's mood still didn't seem to have much fluctuation, "I just want to help her, it's that simple."
His answer made Gu Wangchuan even more annoyed.
Just want to help her? Just want to help her!!
How charming is that woman to be able to involve her brother, who usually doesn't like to meddle in other people's affairs? She might even offend his eldest brother!
After all, what kind of ecstasy soup did that woman pour into him?
"Brother," Gu Xicen said quietly, "I will do what I say. Even if you blame me, I will not change my mind. I tell you out of respect."
Gu Wangchuan clenched his fists, and his whole body was filled with anger.
He swore that if it weren't for his beloved brother in front of him, he would really let him disappear from this world!
But damn, he couldn't do anything to him!
After a long time, Gu Wangchuan sneered and said, "Okay, I received what you want to say."
He turned around and strode away without looking back.
Gu Xicen stood there, his eyes narrowed. It was only at this moment that he showed a trace of unspeakable complexity. After his father left, he was the eldest brother, father and brother, who protected him and allowed him to do what he liked.
thing.
He can completely understand how his elder brother is feeling right now.
Is he sure he wants to do this?
Is he sure he won't regret doing this?
Lin Yuer was like an abandoned little animal, huddled in the corner, holding back the feeling of heartache.
She numbs herself over and over again, and the pain will become numb. If it doesn't work once, just try it twice. Sooner or later, it will become invulnerable to all poisons.
There was a sudden coldness on her cheeks. She was startled and shrank back inward.
Gu Xicen held an ice pack in her hand and gently applied it on her face, "If you apply it, the swelling will subside quickly and there won't even be any bruises left."
