Chapter 16

The scorching sun was in the sky, the warm wind was blowing dry, and the leaves rustled overhead.

The atmosphere between the three suddenly became subtle.

Gu Chixi looked at He Yu calmly, there was no turbulence in his black eyes, and there was a calm and calm confidence in the corners of his eyes and brows, as if everything was under her control.

He Yu turned his head, “Ningzai?”

Wen Ning was caught in the middle and felt that something was wrong, but he couldn’t tell. And Gu Chixi’s words reminded her that today is “work”, and it is indeed inconvenient to entrain personal affairs.

“It’s something…” She smiled awkwardly at He Yu and stuck out her tongue.

“Oh-”

He Yu was not very happy in her heart, but she didn’t show it on her face, she just raised her eyebrows, “Well, go to my place to play another day.” She released her hand and pinched Wen Ning’s face affectionately. “Let’s go, bye~”

“Hmm.” Wen Ning didn’t resist at all, and followed her across the road.

Gu Chixi’s hand tightened the purse.

When Wen Ning turned her face back, their eyes met, she immediately restrained all her emotions, her eyebrows were gentle, and she opened the door and got into the car.

“Where else do you want to go?” Wen Ning asked while fastening her seat belt, her head lowered, as if she was avoiding something.

Gu Chixi looked at her quietly: “Is that the friend who answered your phone that day?”

“Yup.”

“You were at her house then?”

Wen Ning raised her eyes to meet her deep gaze, her heart shrank abruptly, “… um.” She couldn’t help but explain, “I was in a bad mood that day, so I went to her house to sit and help her remove the air conditioner filter by the way. network.”

After explaining, she regretted it again, and there was no need to explain it so clearly.

It was suddenly quiet in the car.

Gu Chixi stared at her for a long time, then withdrew his gaze, his face softened.

Maybe she misunderstood that night, it was just a normal exchange between friends, maybe she was too sensitive and felt that anyone who appeared around Wen Ning had a purpose. But her intuition told her that He Yu must have other thoughts, which were hidden deeply.

“Give me your bank card number.” Wen Ning took the initiative to break the silence.

Gu Chixi came back to his senses: “Huh?”

“The salary is paid, and the money is paid back.”

“…”

Gu Chixi lowered his eyes, hesitated for a while, and said, “Add WeChat to you.”

“Not texting directly?”

“Calls are expensive,” she said solemnly.

-puff.

Wen Ning blinked and looked at her in disbelief: “You? Do you think a dime is expensive?”

“Forget it.” Gu Chixi deliberately put on a straight face, “You don’t have to pay back the money.”

“add!”

Wen Ning knew it was a routine, but she thought that it was more important to pay back the money, so she couldn’t care less, so she quickly approached her with the 2D code. Gu Chixi frowned helplessly, added a friend, and sent the bank card number.

“Go to Zhonglan Villa.” She turned her face to the window.

Along the way, the two did not speak.

Zhonglan Villa is far from the city, Wen Ning drove a little absent-mindedly, and couldn’t help but glance to the right, so the speed was not fast, and it took an hour to arrive.

A tortuous asphalt road extends halfway up the mountain, with an endless blue sea in front of it, surrounded by green trees, and the water and sky meet in the distance, making the scenery pleasant. Every time the car drove forward, it encountered a checkpoint. Because it was an unfamiliar license plate, it had to be registered. Gu Chixi sat in the co-pilot and brushed his face to pass.

Her restless mother came up with a new trick.

Everything is learned from the Gu family.

“As expected of a place where rich people live today, the management is really strict.” Wen Ning turned the steering wheel and sighed.

Gu Chixi whispered, “My mother lives here.”

“??”

The car just stopped in front of the courtyard gate. Wen Ning looked sideways at her in surprise, her lips moved, she wanted to say something and then stopped, only saying, “It’s here.”

Gu Chixi unhurriedly unfastened her seat belt, but did not get out of the car. Her eyes were lowered, her delicate eyelashes trembled, and she suddenly asked, “Have you known He Yu for a long time?”

“…It’s been a long time.” Wen Ning pursed her lips and continued, “It’s been seven years.”

Gu Chixi’s heart suddenly trembled.

Seven years, from her departure to her return, such a long period of time.

She didn’t know whether to be happy or sad.

Fortunately, someone accompanies Wen Ning to get through the predicament when she is away, but she is sad because she is absent from the darkest time in Wen Ning’s life, like a scum fleeing from battle, not worthy of picking ripe fruits. Lemon won’t need her anymore.

“Go back,” Gu Chixi took a deep breath, raised his hand and patted his chest, “I’ll go back to the hotel myself later.”

Wen Ning was also distracted, she heard the sound and turned to look at her: “You don’t live at home?”

Gu Chixi shook his head, opened the door and got out of the car without lifting his eyelids.

A servant in the yard greeted her, and her straight back disappeared behind the fountain.

The heart seems to be empty.

There is a cool breeze blowing through the empty place, sour and numb.

Wen Ning didn’t quite understand. With such a beautiful, quiet and good environment, that person didn’t live there and went to a hotel instead. This is nothing like Gu Chixi in memory.

Seven years is really a long time. After a long time, they have given birth to many changes, but they still look familiar because their memories are stuck in the past.

It seems that a strange soul is hidden under the familiar skin.

For example, she felt that Gu Chixi seemed to care about He Yu. She couldn’t understand why. He Yu and she were just good friends. After Gu Chixi asked a few words, it seemed that they had an ambiguous relationship. .

The only explanation is paranoia.

Possessiveness has not changed.

Wen Ning pondered for a long time and shook her head. These had nothing to do with her.

There was light and melodious classical music from the living room on the third floor, and Yang Yi was dancing with her little wolf dog boyfriend in her arms.

She was wearing a red tube top skirt, her figure was still as concave and convex as when she was young, and her face was radiant, while the little wolf dog was wearing a light upper body and only a pair of bottoms. The tight fabric wrapped her strong muscles. Sex | sense.

The two cooperated tacitly and looked very emotional at first glance.

Gu Chixi walked over with an expressionless face, without taking a second glance, he sat on the sofa, stretched his legs, and waited patiently.

“Xixi—” Yang Yi stopped immediately when she saw her daughter, patted Little Wolfdog’s strong arm, and motioned him to avoid it.

The man nodded, turned off the music, and left silently.

She sat down beside her daughter, “Xixi, mom…”

“I’ve spent the money I gave you last time?” Gu Chixi picked up a magazine from the coffee table, turned two pages, and didn’t look up.

Yang Yi’s face was slightly stiff, and the outstretched hand retracted angrily, and smiled awkwardly: “Mom knows, in your heart, I only want money, it’s my fault, I admit it, but this time it’s really important thing.”

After the last time the mother and daughter quarreled, she realized the reality. All her financial resources are her daughter, and she will have to rely on her daughter in the future. Even if the mother-daughter relationship cannot be eased, she must not make the quarrel worse.

“Tell me.” Gu Chixi closed the magazine.

Seeing her attitude slowed down, Yang Yi immediately became overjoyed, took her arm, and said, “There will be a ladies’ dance in Los Angeles at the beginning of next month. Fifteen domestic famous daughters between the ages of 22 and 35 will be invited to participate. The way will let you go.”

“Celebrity?” Gu Chixi sneered, “Where do you think I am a celebrity?”

“…”

“Gu’s family? That should be the eldest and second sisters, right? Yang’s family? Is your Yang family famous? Rich or powerful, eh?” Every time she said a word, her voice became colder, and her smile became more ironic.

After a series of questions, in an aggressive tone, Yang Yi was speechless when asked, her mouth opened and closed, and she whispered, “It’s good to have the opportunity to expand your interpersonal circle, you’re 30 years old, and you haven’t even talked about a boyfriend, those Famous sons are very picky, and if it’s too late…”

Gu Chixi sullenly threw the magazine on the table, got up and was about to leave.

“Xixi!” Yang Yi hurriedly stopped her, “Don’t go, Mom is telling you seriously, you are very hard outside alone, if you can marry into a wealthy family and join forces, you can save a lot of trouble.”

“You want to marry into a wealthy family, right?”

“…”

Gu Chixi looked at her mother’s guilty face, and suddenly felt cold at her fingertips, she said solemnly: “I didn’t get to be Mrs. Gu, I’m not reconciled, I want to come and influence me. You’re too old, don’t let me teach you how to be safe. ‘How to write two words.”

After being poked at the sore spot again, Yang Yi’s face turned blue and white for a while, but this time he didn’t dare to lose his temper again, so he could only endure it and try to keep a smile.

“Then even if you don’t look for a famous son, you have to be the right one, who can help you in your career…” She lowered her head and thought.

“mom-”

“Eh?”

“Listen,” Gu Chixi took two steps back, a layer of frost froze in his condensed black eyes, “I will only marry a woman in my life, and it must be someone I like.”

Yang Yi’s face turned pale, and the whole person was stunned.

“What did you say?”

Gu Chixi ignored it and turned to leave.

“Xixi-”

The mother’s hysterical shouts came from behind, from roaring to hoarse. She didn’t stop, facing the air contaminated with the unpleasant fragrance, and fled like the wind.

She shouldn’t expect anything from her mother.

Ever since I was a child, I have never used her for money and benefits, and I have never really thought about her at all. She still can’t understand how, as a mother, she can be so numb and ruthless towards her children, even worse than animals.

The mother cat still knows how to protect her cubs, what about Yang Yi?

The wind hurt her eyes, which were slightly red, but the heat quickly subsided.

Passing through the vestibule garden, Gu Chixi took out her mobile phone and called Tan Jia. The receiver rang twice, but before she could get through, she suddenly stopped, her eyes were straight, and a familiar white car was parked in the courtyard. Outside the door – Wen Ning didn’t leave.

A warm current surged up in the bottom of my heart, flowing to the limbs and bones, and the fingertips that were numb from the cold felt sensation.

She came back to her senses in a trance, and a faint smile broke out on her lips.

In the car, Wen Ning leaned against the back of the seat and closed her eyes. She heard the door opening and closing, opened her eyes, and said in surprise, “You came out so soon?”

“Um.”

“Your eyes…what’s the matter?” She leaned forward slightly and leaned closer.

Gu Chixi hugged her.
