Bertram didn't sleep very peacefully that night. As a soldier, he knew that dangers lurked and it was impossible to sleep peacefully. Maintaining a high degree of vigilance was the first quality a soldier had.
Gu Chen, who was just across the wall from him, slept well because she knew that Gu Shuanghuai would never be able to escape this time.
Around ten o'clock in the morning, Gu Shuanghuai suddenly rolled into the Gu family's courtyard like a ball.
"Dad!" Gu Jiao, who was wearing a camel coat and tight jeans, ran in with sheepskin boots and helped her up. "Dad, why don't you be more careful? What if you fall somewhere? Does it hurt? I asked Gu Rao to help me.
You go back to the house."
Liu Jin'e followed closely and said, "Your dad is so fat that he can fall anywhere. Without your dad here, who would support you?"
Knowing that a foreigner had come to Gu Chen's house, the girls who had packed their luggage early covered their mouths and wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh. They all lowered their heads and walked into the yard.
"Gu Chen, come out!" Gu Jiao didn't dare to enter the house. She stood in the middle of the yard and yelled coquettishly, "My mother said you should bring back a lost foreigner and show him to me. I'll ask.
Ask him how he got to our village so that we can send him back then."
Bertram, who was still trying hard to pick up soybeans with chopsticks, looked up at Gu Chen, who had a cold brow, "They are here."
"It's ten o'clock, yes, it's an hour later than I expected." Gu Chen threw away his chopsticks and said calmly to Gu Dahuai, who was preparing lunch: "You are still taking medicine, don't come out and hear some unpleasant words."
Seeing Gu Dahuai's worry, Bertram smiled slightly and said, "Do you need me to accompany you out?"
"You are indispensable in my play, so you naturally need to accompany me." Gu Chen curled his lips, his eyes were so dark that it was difficult to see any emotion. Just like her, he was so close yet felt so far away.
.
Bertram would not refuse her invitation. His low voice was filled with a smile. He put down his chopsticks and stood up. He stretched out his hand and said gracefully: "The most beautiful lady, I am very willing to serve you."
The Gu family's house is a typical adobe house with relatively low eaves. A man with a slender build and noble posture appeared in front of everyone, and the entire house was completely reduced to the background.
"It's really..." With eyes wide open, Gu Jiao clenched her hands and hurriedly swallowed what she said. She put on what she thought was the most generous smile and walked over, "Hello, it's nice to meet you. Excuse me.
, do you need any help?"
Her spoken language was not fluent and was deliberately modified, which made Bertram find it difficult to listen.
But the girls behind Gu Jiao were extremely envious. Before they could take away the expressions on their faces, the six girls gasped several times when Gu Chen appeared.
When Liu Jin'e saw it, she immediately stepped forward and glared at Gu Chen: "Damn girl! Why don't you go back to the house to pack your luggage! Didn't you see that your sister was happily talking to him?"
The man was tall and handsome, and the woman was elegant and elegant, standing together as well as a pair of wall figures. In Gu Jiao's eyes, she was so angry that she broke several of her fingernails.
What made her even more intolerable was that the foreigner... didn't even look at her!
After enduring it for a long time, she suppressed her anger and said coquettishly to Liu Jin'e: "Mom, don't be so fierce, you will scare sister." She apologized directly to Gu Chen in English, "I'm sorry, sister."
If it weren't for the foreigners around her, would that damn bastard deserve her to apologize?
Gu Chen said casually, "What did you say? I don't understand."
