C423

Gao Kan squatted down, and I thought that he was going to help me up, so I reached out my hand. But he only looked at me for a dozen or so seconds, then stood up. You will never understand that, compared to losing you, nothing else is important to me. Even if I have to do anything to make others despise me, I don't want to let you go. "But in the future, I really won't be that selfish anymore …"

After Gao Kan finished speaking, he left without looking back, until he disappeared around the corner.

Only the sound of footsteps could be heard, and finally, it was completely silent.

His ankle was in pain and his spine was in danger. Tears welled up in his eyes, but they were quickly forced back into them.

I have to hurry to the hospital to apply my sprained wound. I have to make sure that everything is fine when I go on stage tomorrow afternoon, and there will be a lot of reporters following me around asking if I'm serious. The cast will hear about what happened tonight, and they'll look at me strangely.

Tat tat tat. The sound of high heels hitting the ground came from around the corner.

As the other party got closer, I could smell Han Youya's scent.

She looked at me with ridicule written all over her face. "I thought your love was great, but you are actually the same as me. In the face of your career and dreams, Gao Kan is nothing."

"No, I'm not like you …"

"Gao Kan probably did not expect you to abandon him, right?" Han Youya laughed in schadenfreude, and said gently as if she was a big sister: "Yi Shanshan, I've said before, being in a relationship with Gao Kan will be very tiring. He's just like Gao Junfeng, he likes to control people, you're right to do this, it's called stopping the damage in time."

"Han Youya, we are not the same, do you know? "Don't tell me that." I took off my high heels and stood up while carrying her. "Gao Kan loves me, no matter what I do, he will respect me," I told her.

Han Youya's smile froze, and his eyes turned cold.

I hit her shoulder, which was blocking the way, and the pain in her ankle made my way to the elevator.

Han Youya sneered from behind me, "Yi Shanshan, do you know why Gao Kan loves you? Because only a stupid woman like you would obediently stay at his feet and let him order her around! "

I couldn't help it, so I stopped and let all my anger go to her. "And what else can you do, but watch in silence as we fall in love? I have long given up on your petty tricks, because in Gao Kan's eyes, you're worthless. By the way, did you succeed? What should I call you? The stepmother, right? "

No, to be exact, Han Youya was even angrier than me. She pointed her finger at me and growled hysterically, "Yi Shanshan, I will let you know what it means to have stolen another's man. This will not end well for you!"

"Han Youya, I have long been sick of hearing your words, I am already at the end of my rope. I advise you to stop tormenting yourself, even if Gao Kan and I broke up, it would not be your place as the stepmother …"

At this moment, "Ding Ling," the elevator door suddenly opened.

I thought our conversation was funny, so I stopped.

Fortunately, Lisa came out of the elevator.

Seeing how both of them were at loggerheads, she didn't ask any questions and only walked over to support me. She sighed and said, "Come, I'll take you to the hospital."

Instead, I asked her, "Why are you still at the company so late at night?"

"Dragon Head and Director Gao were arguing because of you. The company was in an uproar, and now you are here alone, can I be at ease?"

"I thought you didn't want me anymore."

They ignored Han Youya and went into the elevator.

"I don't want you," Lisa said. "You're the young mistress of the Gao family. How could I dare to offend you?"

It was just that she purposely ridiculed me in such a way. I thought of what Gao Kan had just said and said rather gloomily, "I'm afraid I didn't end up being the Young Mistress's life. Didn't you see that Gao Kan didn't even want me anymore?"

"Isn't it normal for the two of you to quarrel?" Lisa shrugged her shoulders. "We'll make up anyway, so let's just treat it as a change of life."

I shook my head. "It's different this time."

In the past, no matter what happened to Gao Kan, no matter how impatient he was, he would always accompany me in arguing until the two of them said what they were thinking about in their hearts, and then we would reconcile.

But tonight he was strangely silent, not willing to say a word to me, not even looking back.

This decision of mine broke his heart.

He said his "home" dream was on the verge of destruction.

I didn't expect that.

Lisa patted my shoulder. "Alright, we still have to do some filming tomorrow. You two should calm down for a few days, then we'll have another fight and then everything will be fine. OK?" "If you keep that small face wrinkled, it'll be out in the morning."

I'm not as optimistic as Lisa, but I also don't have to be tossing and turning so that I can't fall asleep. Based on my understanding of Gao Kan, he will return home in a few days, and when his anger is gone, I will have a good chat with him again, and tell him about the Aunt Yun and the huge inheritance. I can break the contract with E.G.

But following that, his days on the set were not easy, not only did he have to face the various gazes from the filming crew, but there were also reporters who kept asking, "Gao Kan, are you two arguing?", "Why isn't Director Gao doing this, are you guys breaking up?", and "There's someone new in Director Gao, do you know about it, Miss Eyre?". He didn't care about it and just smiled and told them that the two of them were fine. Gao Kan was just too busy to come visit me, so I put my entire body and mind into work, forcing myself not to think about Gao Kan anymore.

A week later, I returned home. When I pushed open the door, it was deserted, not a trace of human habitation. Even the table in the living room was covered with a thin layer of dust.

Gao Kan never came back, ever since he left that day, he didn't even send me a message. He went on a business trip abroad, and I saw it on the news.

It's been a long time since Gao Kan has been so cold and detached towards me, and this made me feel very terrified.

I had originally hoped that he would apologize to me, but it seemed impossible now, so I could only take the initiative to call Gao Kan's cell number. The result I received was that I was unable to pick up his phone, and once again, contacted Gao Ziyu, only saying that Gao Kan had indeed gone on a business trip, but hadn't been able to contact him for a while.

Gao Ziyu asked me with concern, "What's going on with you two recently? Why don't I see that Gao Kan isn't in good shape? "

"Uncle Gao, I want to talk to you." Because of these words of concern from Gao Ziyu, the strength that I had forcefully endured suddenly collapsed. The pain, suffering, and grievance that had been pressing down on my heart for the past few days, poured out to him like a flood.

Within the coffee shop of Qingcheng apartment.

From that night when Han Youya called to ask for help, to Gao Kan suddenly leaving, to him saying that he had gone bankrupt, to me being called by Gao Junfeng to the Gao Clan villa being threatened, to Gao Kan's intense argument with Long Jihong last week, to his disappointment and disappearance after I signed the contract, I told him everything, one by one, without reservation.

Gao Ziyu rarely interjected and kept listening to me, just constantly shaking his head. After I finished speaking, he sighed in regret, and in that moment, he was speechless as well.

After a moment of silence, I remembered something else, and asked him, "Uncle Gao, I want to ask you something, please answer me truthfully, is Gao Liao's death related or not?"

Gao Ziyu was in a dilemma.

"Please, tell me, I just want to be sure of something."

Gao Ziyu didn't immediately reply to me. Instead, he asked me, "Did Gao Dong use this matter to threaten you?"

"Yes."

"That matter was not all Gao Kan's fault. According to the law, he killed people with passion …"

Passive killing?

That means that Gao Kan lied to me again that day.

As smart as he is, he had already guessed that Gao Junfeng would use that matter to threaten me. So because he was afraid that I would retreat, he first denied the truth, and told me not to worry about so many things, and even dared to hide it from him. He, who was acting arrogantly, would rather be beaten into such a sorry state by Long Jihong's people, no wonder he was so disappointed after hearing that I wanted to sign a contract and didn't want to leave with him.

Could it be that our shared dream of "home" was so fragile that it could collapse at any moment?

"Maybe he encountered some difficult things, and was unable to tell us, so he went missing. He only came to try to stay calm, so don't think too much, forcing him to come out to meet you is useless too, Gao Kan has always been this stubborn since a young age. Only if he thought things through himself can it be considered as clear, other people's words will be of no use."

"It's not easy for you two. He's not the kind of man to just walk away. I believe that everything will be over. As for what happened in Macau that night, I will send someone to investigate. There's no paper that can't hold a fire."

Gao Ziyu comforted me like this, and then, promised me that he would help me investigate Han Youya. My heart more or less relaxed, and I also dispelled the thought of going to Gao Kan.
