Seeing that Gu Tong's eyes were filled with concern, she shook her head in gratitude and slowly responded, "Elder sister, don't worry, I'm fine! "Just as that group of people were about to attack me, big brother's people came out and saved me. I just suffered a little surprise and didn't suffer any injuries. Look …"
He promised to pull up the clothes on his two arms and put his arms in front of Gu Tong, "My arms are completely unharmed."
Gu Tong did see the wound on his arm, but at the same time, she also saw that Gu Tong's arm was extremely thin, even thinner than before when they separated. It was almost like there was no flesh at all.
Gu Tong grabbed the promised arm and asked excitedly, "How did you spend the last few days?" "Why do these arms look like they haven't eaten at all, as if they haven't eaten at all for the past few days?"
Sister, I have a meal. I've been making money on my own these past few days. I've been eating every day.
Worried that Gu Tong wouldn't believe him, he even reiterated his promise twice.
However, looking at her emaciated body, Gu Tong still found it hard to believe that she had eaten.
"You're still so young, how can you earn money by relying on your own abilities? You must not lie to me, you must tell me the truth! "
Gu Tong put on a serious face as she spoke, as if the promise was a lie and she didn't want to worry about it.
After she heard Gu Tong's words, she immediately explained, "Sister, I really have a meal. These few days, I've been begging everywhere and picking up trash for money. Although my income isn't much, I can still eat my fill, and …"
At this point, the promise suddenly became much softer, "And I still feel safe eating it, because that money was earned by my ability and not by harming others."
Hearing that she had promised to beg and pick up trash these past few days, Gu Tong's heart ached to the point that she couldn't breathe.
She reached out and hugged her promise, and said angrily and lovingly: "Why are you so stubborn, girl? Why would I rather beg for junk than stay by my side? I can give you a good life. I can let you live it all your life. "
Gu Tong was very confident. Even if she didn't rely on Si Yicheng and only relied on her own ability, as long as she promised to follow him, she would be able to take good care of her for the rest of her life.
"I know that elder sister is good to me, but …" "But I really don't want to cause trouble for big sis …" She curled up in Gu Tong's arms, sobbing as she spoke.
"If it wasn't for this time, I wouldn't have been a match for those hoodlums, and I wouldn't have let my sister's people help me. I don't want to owe my sister anymore."
"I don't mind! "I don't mind if you owe me!"
Gu Tong explained loudly. She really didn't want to see her promise being taken seriously.
However, a promise is a consideration, "I mind, I will not feel at ease! "Ever since we met, I've been troubling you. I really don't want to …"
"Enough! Don't say anymore! "
Gu Tong clung to her promise, not wanting to hear any more of it.
"Xiao Nuo, what did you do to provoke those hoodlums?"
Noticing that the two were getting more and more agitated, Si Yicheng quickly interjected and changed the topic.
After hearing Si Yicheng's voice, she straightened up from Gu Tong's embrace. After sniffing, she seriously replied, "I didn't do anything, but they said I would pay them protection fees if I begged on their territory …" If I don't want to, they want to hit me. "
"Why don't you want to? Why would a girl like you go against those dangerous hoodlums? Aren't you afraid of death? "
Gu Tong suddenly snapped at the promise. This was something she had never shown even once she had known the promise for so long. Not only did it scare her, it scared her as well.
After shouting 'promise', she went over to the window with a face full of annoyance. Looking at the beautiful scenery in the distance, she didn't know how she was going to get along with the 'promise' next.
She really couldn't do anything about this heartbreaking and helpless girl.
Seeing Gu Tong's reaction, he promised to think that she was angry with him and quickly followed. When he was a distance away from Gu Tong, he fearfully said, "Elder sister …" Don't be like this, it's not that I'm not afraid of death, it's just that I don't care about myself, I … "I just want to become self-reliant as soon as possible. I want to let you know as soon as possible that I can live a good life by myself. I want you to not worry about me, that you can …"
She had always understood the promise in Gu Tong's heart, so she didn't want Gu Tong to worry about her. Even if she was threatened, she wanted to hang on by herself and let Gu Tong rest easy.
Because of her, Gu Tong had been kidnapped, but not only did she not blame him, she even paid for her treatment. In her heart, she was really grateful to Gu Tong and wanted to do her best to be nice to her.
However, what she was thinking was not what Gu Tong wanted. Gu Tong suddenly turned around and roared at her, "If you really get hurt because of my idea, then I'll live my life in anxiety and self-blame!"
"I chose the path. Even if something really did happen, I …"
"It's because of me that you made such a choice!"
Gu Tong loudly interrupted her promise, suddenly realizing that she might not necessarily have to use soft ones when dealing with little girls like these. Sometimes, hard ones might be more effective.
Gu Tong's words left her with no words to respond to the promise of no education. She could only lower her head and fall silent.
Seeing her act this way, Gu Tong silently sighed before turning her head to look outside the window once more.
She needed to think carefully about how she could better resolve the issue she had promised and let the promise return to a person's life. It was impossible for her to do that, so she could no longer be at ease.
Although she promised that she would be accompanied by the bodyguards that were assigned by Si Yicheng, those were people after all, and people would be careless. She really did not want to hear the next news that her bodyguard had failed in his duty and promised that an accident would happen to one of them.
"Calm down, you scared Xiao Nuo like that."
While Gu Tong's mind was in a mess, Si Yichen suddenly walked behind her. He placed both of his hands on her shoulders and comforted her in a low voice.
Upon hearing that she was actually scared, Gu Tong turned around to look at the promise, only to see that the promise had lowered her head and was tugging at her fingers, looking extremely frightened.
"I... I don't want to do this to her, but... "But after hearing what she said just now, I couldn't help but want to throw a tantrum …" Gu Tong frowned and said softly, her heart and body filled with helplessness.
