Xiao Ran stood outside the door, looking as if he was still in a trance.
It was her first time here and she wasn't quite sure of the direction. As she looked around, she suddenly saw the person she wanted to see.
But she wanted to see this person, but she didn't want to see him.
But she's still here after all, she's already here, what else can she do?
After just a moment, she came to her senses and walked slowly towards the door.
However, as soon as she took two steps forward, the bodyguard next to her stopped in front of her, blocking her way forward.
"Sorry, it's a private residence, please don't disturb me," the bodyguard said.
Hearing this, Xiao Ran, who was already in a daze, suddenly turned pale. After a moment, she smiled slightly, then looked over the bodyguard's shoulder at the people inside, and said in a low voice: "Fu Chengyu, can we
Want to chat?”
Inside the door, when Fu Chengyu heard these words, he subconsciously looked at Gu Qing'er.
Gu Qing'er had returned to her expressionless state, and when she met his gaze, there was a slight coldness in her eyes.
She looked at him and slowly said: "The person you brought is calling you."
"I didn't bring her here," Fu Chengyu said.
"Then I followed you?" Gu Qing'er sneered slightly and said, "I came all the way here because I want to have a chat with you, Mr. Fu. As half the owner of this house, Mr. Fu is still a little bit
As a landlord, please come in and sit down and talk. I won't disturb you any more."
After saying that, she turned to leave, but her hand was still tightly held by Fu Chengyu. Gu Qing'er only had time to struggle for a moment before being pulled towards the door by Fu Chengyu.
Gu Qing'er couldn't come to her senses.
What does he mean by this? He is meeting and talking with Xiao Ran, and he plans to take her with him?
Gu Qing'er's mind was in a mess, but she only knew that she was resisting this scene, so she couldn't help but struggle again.
"Fu Chengyu, let me go! What you want to talk about is your own business! I'm not interested and I don't want to hear it! Don't take me with you!"
Fu Chengyu stopped, turned around, and said slowly: "You just said that I am only half the owner of this house. As the other half owner, shouldn't you also listen to what she said at the door of this house?
?"
Before Gu Qing'er could figure out the logical relationship, Fu Chengyu had already pulled him to the door.
Inside the door were her and Fu Chengyu, and outside the door was Xiao Ran, who looked a little pale and lifeless.
The two looked at each other, the atmosphere was still a bit weird after all.
When Gu Qing'er couldn't help but wanted to throw away her hands and leave again, she saw Xiao Ran retreat slightly, and then she bent her knees and knelt down directly in front of the two people!
Gu Qing'er looked at her movements in a daze, and before she could react, she heard Fu Chengyu say, "What are you doing?"
As soon as he heard these words, Gu Qing'er couldn't help being startled again, and for a moment he had some doubts. Did such a cold tone really come from Fu Chengyu?
He has always been calm and gentle, how could he speak in such a tone, let alone to Xiao Ran?
Xiao Ran knelt there with his eyes lowered, motionless. After a moment, he spoke again: "My father did something wrong. The Xiao family is sorry for you and Miss Gu. The Xiao family may not be able to repay what they owe you in this life..."
"
"Get up and talk to me again," Fu Chengyu said.
Xiao Ran seemed not to have heard his words and continued: "I know that people who have done wrong things should be punished accordingly, so my father, my uncle... what they endured today, they should bear -
.”
"Xiao Ran!" Fu Chengyu suddenly called her name in a cold voice, "I want you to stand up!"
After hearing these words, Xiao Ran finally slowly raised his eyes and looked at Fu Chengyu.
At the same time, Gu Qing'er couldn't help but turn her head and look at him.
Fu Chengyu's eyes were cold and his voice was stern, something she had never seen before.
Gu Qing'er couldn't help but want to take her hand out of his, but Fu Chengyu still held her tightly, and seemed to have slightly increased his strength.
"If there is something you can't say while standing, then don't say it." Fu Chengyu said in a deep voice, "It won't make any difference if you kneel until the end of time."
Hearing this, Xiao Ran froze for a moment and finally stood up slowly.
After another pause, she spoke in a low voice: "Fu Chengyu, my brother Xiao Cheng, he is innocent..."
"I know." Fu Chengyu said.
"He was originally going to Oxford to go to university, but now, he can't go."
"That was Xiao Taiming's own fault. He caused his own son to suffer."
"I know, I know..." Xiao Ran nodded slowly. When he raised his eyes to look at him again, his eyes were already slightly red, "But I still don't want to give in. Why should my brother let his stupidity and confusion lead to him?"
To suffer such consequences? Fu Chengyu, you also know my brother. You have met him. He is very well-behaved and obedient. He concentrates on his studies. In this matter, he is the most innocent person——"
Having said this, Gu Qing'er finally understood Xiao Ran's intention.
She understands it all, how can Fu Chengyu not understand?
"You mean, you want me to help him?" Fu Chengyu said.
"Yes, I want to ask you to help him..." Xiao Ran said slowly.
As soon as these words came out, the three of them stopped talking for a while.
Gu Qing'er had not participated in the conversation between the two people originally, and now he just watched quietly.
After a long time, Fu Chengyu slowly spoke: "You should know that I have never harmed him. Sitting on the sidelines is the most benevolent and righteous thing to do."
Xiao Ran heard this, and after a moment of silence, he whispered: "I know...but I have no other way, Fu Chengyu, I really have no other way..."
"Then maybe I can only say sorry." Fu Chengyu said, "I can't help you with this."
Xiao Ran raised his eyes to look at him again, and after a long time, he spoke again: "Even if I beg you, won't it do the same?"
Fu Chengyu met her gaze and said calmly: "I can't do anything."
As if she still didn't want to give up, she asked again: "Even if it's because of our past friendship, isn't it okay?"
When Fu Chengyu heard this, his jaw lines tightened and he didn't answer another word.
Seeing his appearance, Xiao Ran seemed a little stunned, and stared at him quietly for a long time, and finally laughed slowly.
Gu Qing'er could clearly see that the moment she smiled, water clearly flashed in her eyes, but it was only for a moment.
Then, she looked at Gu Qing'er again, and at Fu Chengyu's hand that was always holding Gu Qing'er tightly.
"I also know that I am shameless, have no self-esteem, and have no bottom line. I know clearly that the Xiao family has done too much to you, and yet I am here to ask for your help..." Xiao Ran whispered, "Now I know your answer.
, seems to be enough..."
After saying this, she lowered her head, chuckled again, turned around and left.
