"Stay here and watch me. I can't fall asleep!" Gu Tong frowned and said to Si Yicheng in a speechless manner.
"Then …"
"Don't use this and that! You can either go outside or to your own room! No matter where you go, it's fine. Just don't guard me here, I just want to have a good sleep right now. "
"You don't like me that much?" Si Yicheng felt somewhat wronged as he spoke.
"No, I didn't …"
"Alright!" Alright! I'm just teasing you, you should get some rest! I'll go out immediately! "
Si Yicheng was deliberately joking with Gu Tong. He wanted to see how her mind was faring. Seeing that she still had the strength to explain to him, he finally relaxed a bit and was willing to give in.
"Wait …"
However, just as he walked to the door, Gu Tong called out to him.
He immediately turned around and looked at Gu Tong expectantly, "What happened? Did he regret it? You want me to stay with you? "
Gu Tong rolled her eyes at him in disdain before getting to the point, "You're overthinking it. I just want to tell you, I'm very tired and my stomach is very uncomfortable. I won't be eating dinner later. Don't forget to bring Xiao Nuo out to eat when the time comes."
Hearing Gu Tong call out to him, it was only because he was worried about his promise. Si Yicheng pursed his lips in disappointment and said with some resentment, "I understand. I will take good care of your precious little sister. You can rest assured!"
Sensing Si Yicheng's discontent, Gu Tong bit her lips and added in a small voice, "You should eat more yourself. Don't be hungry anymore."
"Alright!"
Si Yichen immediately beamed with joy.
Sometimes happiness is so simple, like the person of a simple care, can instantly make people happy.
Seeing his smile, Gu Tong let out a faint smile before closing her eyes and falling into a deep sleep.
Si Yicheng gave her one last look before tiptoeing out of the room.
"How is sister?"
As soon as Si Yichen came out, he promised to step forward and ask about Gu Tong's situation.
"Be quiet!" After Si Yicheng taught her a lesson, he quietly replied, "She said she's tired and has already fallen asleep. Don't go in and disturb her."
"Alright!"
Saying that, she obediently sat down on the sofa. When she faced Si Yichen alone, she was still a bit nervous and scared.
Si Yicheng knew, but he was worried about Gu Tong's situation, so he didn't say much to her. Instead, he opened his laptop on the other side of the table and began working on his official business.
The promise sat obediently for a while. It was boring and he didn't dare to move. He could only take out the detective novel beside him and silently flip it open.
Although the two of them did not speak, the atmosphere was still quite harmonious, and a long time passed in the blink of an eye.
"Let's go!" I'll take you out to eat! "
Just when she was able to see the most crucial part, she suddenly heard Si Yichen's voice from above her head. She raised her head and saw that Si Yichen, who was originally sitting far away, was now standing in front of her.
She put down the book and stood up, stammering, "It's …" Just the two of us going out to dinner? Elder sister … Where's my sister? "Doesn't she eat?"
"I just went in to see her. She's sleeping very soundly, let's not disturb her anymore!"
Si Yicheng looked in the direction of the room and spoke in a very low voice.
He had been too engrossed in reading that he didn't even know that Si Yichen had been to Gu Tong's room.
When facing Gu Tong, she had the guts to say no and bravely reject her. But facing Si Yichen, she didn't even have the courage to look him in the eye. She could only lower her head and softly say "Okay."
Upon hearing the promised response, Si Yicheng immediately turned around and walked towards the door.
He dared not delay his promise and quickly followed with his short legs.
In fact, the promised length of legs and height was considered high among the same age group. It was just that Si Yichen's height was too outstanding that she seemed smaller.
"I'll go out for a while, you two take care of Madam!"
Walking to the door, Si Yichen did not forget to remind his bodyguard.
"Yes sir!"
The bodyguard lowered his head and replied respectfully.
Only then did Si Yichen relax and lead the way to the dining hall.
"Are you particularly afraid of me?"
Halfway through the dinner, Si Yichen suddenly opened his mouth.
Although his voice was very soft, the promise still scared him out of his wits and dropped the knife and fork in his hand.
Seeing his reaction, Si Yichen understood everything. He pursed his lips, trying to make his expression look gentler, before opening his mouth again: "You don't have to be nervous when facing me, I treat everyone in this way, not just you. And for Little Tong's sake, I won't easily harm you."
"I... "I know you won't hurt me …" The promise suddenly raised her head and excitedly explained to Si Yicheng. When she met his eyes, she hurriedly lowered her eyes and whispered, "I just feel that your aura is very terrifying, so …" That's why I'm a little afraid of you. "
After hearing the promise, Si Yicheng helplessly said, "Being imposing and natural, I can't do anything about it. You can only try your best to make yourself bolder."
"Yes, yes, yes …" "I understand."
As he promised and nodded in agreement, he became even more timid.
"Little Tong is my most important person. Since you want to stay by her side, for her safety, I must know all of your past and background."
"I... "I don't have a past or background, I'm just an orphan that no one wants, living with Brother Fang and those other people every day."
In the face of Si Yichen's promise, he didn't dare to hesitate and immediately told him everything that had happened.
Hearing this, Si Yi Chen's serious expression did not relax. Instead, he asked in a stern tone, "You're lying! If you don't have a background and just follow those hoodlums for a living, how would you have the ability to solve that murder case in such a short amount of time? "
"Have you received any special education? Is there some secret that you don't know about? "
Si Yichen approached the promise and narrowed his eyes slightly. He interrogated it with full of suspicion, as if he had promised to be the culprit at this moment.
At first, when he faced her, he would have his tongue tied in a knot. However, at this moment, he was still acting like this. The promise even made his entire body tremble in nervousness.
Even so, Si Yicheng didn't feel the slightest bit of sympathy for her. He continued to use a pair of cold and cautious eyes as he stared at her unblinkingly. He wanted nothing more than to see through her.
The atmosphere in their area suddenly dropped to a freezing point.
