After hearing the word "disfigurement", Ye Wanqing woke up from his stupor.
She held the empty glass of water, her mind a little empty.
"Gu Jinyuan, do you think that I was the one who wanted to harm her and disfigure her?"
She opened her mouth and saw the helpless, embarrassed expression on her face from the refrigerator.
She had thought she had suffered enough, but now that she was charged with a new crime, she realized that the pain in the world was far more varied than she had imagined.
She could never predict when and how the next pain would come.
She was helpless and could not bear it.
Gu Jinyuan did not directly answer Ye Wanqing's question. Instead, he asked: "In the room for more than ten minutes, what did you and her do?"
What did he do?
It was just a casual chat, nothing out of the ordinary.
Ye Wanqing said in his heart as he tightly held onto his phone, his fingers pressing until they turned white.
"I didn't do anything to hurt her. If you decide that I did it, you can call the police and capture me. I will obediently wait at home and not run away like Xie Fei!"
After saying that, Ye Wanqing immediately cut off the call.
Seeing the screen of his phone go black, Gu Jinyuan's expression became a little complicated. Lin Huai watched on the side and sighed: "Big brother, you have always been so simple and crude, not giving me any chances to rest?"
"You don't think I should?"
"Of course not! Would she be foolish enough to admit it in front of you? What's wrong with her wanting to be in front of you so that you can ban her? It would be damned if you could get the truth out of me like that! " Lin Huai said unrestrainedly, and muttered under his breath: "Taking a step back, if she didn't do it, wouldn't you have hurt her heart again?"
"Weren't you quite sure it was her?" Gu Jinyuan retorted as he touched the tip of his nose uncomfortably, "I was just saying that. Whether or not it is true, we still have to look at the evidence.
Although his words were sometimes out of tune, he had been a doctor for so many years that he had contracted some occupational disease. He would not be so easily able to determine the truth of a matter.
Gu Jinyuan was speechless.
He didn't know why he called Ye Wanqing just now either. He clearly knew this as well, she was someone who understood the situation and would occasionally play with caution, but she would definitely not harm anyone.
What she wanted to do was very simple. Before, it was for her mother, later on it was for her children. She would never do it for herself.
By his side, she had always been under his control. If she were to use such a method to harm Qiao Xiaoyou, it would be too foolish.
But at this time, Gu Jinyuan wanted to hear her voice to see if she was as Lin Yuan had said, so angry that she would die after seeing a woman suddenly appear in the apartment.
What role did he play in her heart? Was it the child's father, the Mr. Gu, or something?
In his heart, he had an expectation that even he himself had not realized. In Ye Wanqing's heart, he was not his son's father, nor was he the financial backer.
He's obviously inseparable from those two characters, but he's been trying to pull your identity out from time to time.
Putting aside Gu’s, if he didn't have anything, what did he count as in her eyes?
After Ye Wanqing hung up the phone, he immediately switched off his phone. Gu Jinyuan called again, but he did not dial.
These days, it was rare for anyone to have the guts to treat Gu Jinyuan like this.
Even if he couldn't make a call, Gu Jinyuan did not have much of a reaction. He kept his phone in his pocket, pushed open the door and quietly entered the sickroom.
The sickroom was very quiet, it had a faint medicinal smell to it. Qiao Xiaoyou was lying on the sickbed, without the makeup under the lens, her features were still exquisite and beautiful, her skin was also well cared for. Some people would believe that she was a teenage girl.
Gu Jinyuan walked to the side of the bed and sat down. Lin Huai made a hand gesture at the door, then closed the door and left, leaving the entire space to two people.
After being tired for the entire day and sitting down like this, Gu Jinyuan finally heaved a sigh of relief. He couldn't help but rub the space between his eyebrows, and after a while, he took out his cell phone, opened the dialog with Allen and entered it.
Just as he typed a few words in, a gentle voice rang out, "Don't tell my brother."
Tilting his head, Qiao Xiaoyou did not know when she woke up. She obediently lay there looking at him with a small pleading look in her eyes.
"He'll be angry when he finds out."
Gu Jinyuan said indifferently. He could almost imagine the angry look on the man named Alen. He didn't want Gu’s's computer to be destroyed by attacks.
Qiao Xiaoyou helplessly sighed: "I'm already twenty-six, and not a child. You guys can't keep watch over me like this."
"As long as Alan is alive, even if you have turned into a white-haired old lady, in his eyes, you are still a child."
Gu Jinyuan laughed and said, as he thought of how Qiao Xiaoyou and Alain fought with their intelligence in their past, he felt a bit of warmth in his heart, and all of the frustration and restlessness in his heart was suppressed.
Knowing that what Gu Jinyuan said was an indisputable truth, Qiao Xiaoyou didn't know what else to say other than sighing. Thinking back to how Gu Jinyuan was rubbing the space between his eyebrows when he woke up, he asked worriedly, "Is the company in a bad condition? "I heard that all the old shareholders have withdrawn their funds. Right now, you're the only one in the country supporting yourself. I still have some savings …"
"I'm fine!"
Gu Jinyuan interrupted Qiao Xiaoyou and spoke unwaveringly, as if no matter how big the storm, he would be able to endure it all by himself.
Qiao Xiaoyou's words were stuck in his throat, he opened his mouth, and after a long while, he said: "All these years, you're still like this."
He refused to admit defeat like this, neither did he want to show weakness and ask for help from the people around him. He buried all of his emotions in the depths of his heart and completely sealed himself away like an isolated island.
No matter how lively and boisterous the world was, his world would always be filled with dark clouds and heavy rain.
Gu Jinyuan did not continue the conversation with Qiao Xiaoyou, instead, he deleted the messages he did not send out from the dialog box. He placed the phone into his pocket and said: "Alright, I won't tell Alexander, you can rest assured and sleep now."
"What about you?"
Gu Jinyuan subconsciously asked as he calmed his exhaustion and sat upright: "I'll guard you here."
These words were easy to misunderstand.
However, Qiao Xiaoyou knew that that was not his intention. He wasn't here to guard her, but to guard for her brother.
"I don't have much else to do. Besides, I don't have much work to do these few days, so I can take a good rest. You should go rest early."
She had slept all afternoon. Compared to her, the one who needed to rest was obviously him.
"I'm fine, you sleep."
Gu Jinyuan said coldly, his tone a little stiff. He obviously cared a lot about Gu Jinyuan, but he forced the words out of his mouth.
It was exactly the same as those straight men who did not know how to react on the internet.
Qiao Xiaoyou found it a little funny and couldn't help but ask: "Boss Gu, don't tell me that you're talking to Mrs. Gu in such a manner?"
Gu Jinyuan frowned: "What's with my tone?"
He asked it so boldly that he almost wrote 'How dare you disapprove of me' on his face.
Qiao Xiaoyou smiled, then shook his head: "I don't dare, I don't dare, I don't dare to have any objections to Boss Gu!"
Her complexion had improved and had regained her rosiness. When she smiled, her eyes were like crescent moons, looking extremely alluring. When Gu Jinyuan saw her, his heart moved slightly.
