I looked at Gu Chen's sleeping face in the moonlight, moved my lips and said in a hoarse voice, "I will never give up."
I was very thirsty, but there was no water in the room, so I had to pour it downstairs. But when I was about to go downstairs, a figure suddenly flashed across the first floor
The shadow flashed by and disappeared. I thought I was dazed. I rubbed my eyes and went downstairs.
The living room of Gu Chen's family is very big. It's night now. I don't want to wake everyone up, so I didn't turn on the light. I couldn't find the location of the water dispenser for a moment, so I groped around in the hall.
"Pa!"
The headlight was suddenly turned on. The light was so strong that I narrowed my eyes subconsciously.
"Miss Xia?"
The man who turned on the light was surprised and didn't expect it to be me.
When I opened my eyes, it turned out to be a servant of Gu's family. Now I was wearing a coat and standing barefoot beside the switch of the wall lamp.
I'm a little embarrassed, pointing to the drinking machine which is a little far away from me, "sorry to wake you up, I'll come down for a drink of water."
The woman nodded and looked at me strangely, but she still went over and poured the water into my hand.
"Miss Xia may not be familiar with this place. If you have anything to do, you can come to me. My name is Ajiao. I live in that room."
Gillian pointed to the door on the first floor, which was not obvious, and then said, "or Miss Xia can remember the position of the wall lamp switch. It's easier to go downstairs and drink at night. "
I was stunned. Was she Think I'm going to steal?
She moved her lips to explain, but she didn't make it clear. When I explain like this, I still feel that there is no silver here.
Gillian was waiting for me to go upstairs before I turned off the light and left. I went back to my room, but I couldn't sleep because of this episode. I opened my eyes until some fish belly white appeared in the sky, and finally I didn't support sleeping.
When he woke up the next day, it was already daybreak. Gu Chen didn't know when he woke up. At this time, he was lying on his side with his chin on his palm and staring at me.
When I blushed, I put my head in the quilt and didn't look at him. He chuckled and dug me out of the quilt.
"Come on, go downstairs and have dinner. Today, the old man doesn't have to go to the army. We can have a rest at home. "
Gu Chen didn't mention yesterday's event. His smile reassured me a lot.
Sun Shilan and Gu Chengzhong are sitting at the dining table. The things on the table don't move at all. They seem to be waiting for us. I notice that yanliqi is not here.
They made me more embarrassed and apologized in a hurry. Sun Shilan looked at me angrily, got up in person and took me by the hand to the seat.
"It's good for young people to have a good sleep. Besides, breakfast has only been served for a short time. Come on, don't say that, eat it quickly
Gu Chengzhong didn't have any expression, just gave me a light look.
Gu Chen skillfully made me toast. I couldn't eat so much, and it was hard to leave. So I had to wink at him. Instead, Gu Chen and sun Shilan were looking at me with ambiguous eyes.
After breakfast, Sun said she would go upstairs to change her clothes. Gu Chengzhong asked people to take the chess.
It suddenly struck me that he would not Play chess with me again!
"You don't have to go to the army today, so play two games of chess with me."
Gu Chengzhong's words have always been beyond doubt, so I have to answer them. Gu Chen stood aside and joked, "it seems that my father lost last time, and he was very unwilling!"
Gu Chengzhong stares at Gu Chen, and I also stares at Gu Chen, so he doesn't talk.
The chess was put on the wooden counter, and the servant soon took it.
Gu Chengzhong didn't ask the servant to open the chess box. Instead, he did it himself. When I look at his actions, I know how much he cares about the chess.
All of a sudden, something fell from the chess box and landed on the dining table with a clear voice.
I looked down and saw that it was half of a chess.
Gu Chengzhong has opened the box. It's not just this one. The whole row above is broken.
Gu Chengzhong was furious and growled, "who did it!"
I was also stunned. I didn't expect that anyone would dare to do so.
Between lightning and flint, I suddenly thought of the dark shadow last night.
"What's the matter?" Sun Shilan just came down from upstairs and saw the chess on the table at a glance. He was also shocked.
"This This is... "
Gu Chengzhong looks up and looks around. The servants around him are trembling with fear. The maid who helps Gu Chengzhong take the chess is sweating even more.
"Secretary Commander
I saw that the maid's legs were trembling, and Gu Chengzhong's eyes were glumly fixed on her.
"I didn't do it, I..." She suddenly thought of something like, eyes suddenly a bright, "I saw Gillian out of the door last night."
Ah JiaoThe woman who poured me water last night?
Gu Chen's voice is colder than ever, "go and call Ah Jiao over."
Sun Shilan didn't hurry to go. Instead, she came over and picked up the broken chess from the table. She frowned and said, "it looks like someone broke it with something! It's been playing chess for years. It's already crisp. But No one in the family should dare to do that. "
Gu Chengzhong's temper, even I, who have just come into contact with him, are afraid of him. Not to mention them.
Gillian came in from the outside with a vegetable basket in her hand. She should have known what had happened, and she was pale.
"Ah Jiao, what's the matter?" Sun Shilan looks serious.
I don't know how important this chess is, why everyone looks like they are facing the enemy. Gu Chen seemed to see my doubts and explained them in the voice of the two of us.
"This is from my father's life-saving benefactor. I was shot for him at the beginning, but I didn't support it later."
It dawned on me that no wonder Gu Chengzhong was so angry.
"It's Miss Xia!" Gillian suddenly looked at me, his voice trembled. "I heard something last night, so I went out to have a look. Miss Xia is in the living room and says she wants to drink water. "
I turned pale, Gillian did not say I broke the chess, but now, all the evidence points to me.
I don't know how to explain. I really just went downstairs to drink water, but now I can't say anything.
"Not Tong Tong." Gu Chen is very sure, "she has no reason to do so."
There was a sudden silence in the hall, almost audible.
"We didn't say Tongtong!" Sun Shilan patted Gu Chen on the shoulder and turned to look at me, but he didn't say anything.
Go downstairs and have a drink In their opinion, it's just an excuse.
Gu Chengzhong also looked at me with a gloomy face.
I have no choice but to sit in silence. Do I have to say that I saw a figure in the evening? No one would believe it except Gu Chen.
"Auntie, haven't you changed yet?"
Suddenly, yanliqi's voice came from the door, followed by the footsteps coming closer and closer.
