Su Hua stepped back and dodged.
Gu Beixian's movements came to a halt. His face, which had been very close to her, only made a faint touch on her chin, like an unconscious breath falling.
Su Hua clearly felt that his emotions had been suppressed even more.
Gu Beixian's hand, which was pinching her chin, descended along her back and stopped at her waist. As if afraid she would run away, he gently pressed it down, his tone unpleasant yet somewhat questioning.
"Why did you tell Shen Huai that I'm your cousin?"
Su Hua lowered her eyes. "Anyway, we're about to get divorced..." There's no need for everyone to know that you and I are husband and wife. Besides, your family background is prominent. If you get divorced in the future and your colleagues find out, they will look at me strangely to some extent. I don't want to be labeled as a "abandoned wife of a wealthy family", saying that my distant cousin is more convenient.
Gu Beixian looked at her meaningfully, "You've thought of it quite thoroughly." "
Su Hua gave a self-mocking smile, "There's no way around it. It's the survival instinct of a nobody." "
"You are no nobody." " He chuckled in a low voice, with a hint of teasing, "There aren't many people in Kyoto who can keep me in a complete mess."
"Don't make fun of me. How dare I order you around?" " Su Hua was embarrassed and turned her back, ignoring him.
At this moment, Gu Beixian's mobile phone rang.
He took a glance, his expression complicated.
Su Hua scanned the two characters "Suo Suo" on the screen and her stomach tightened sharply. "You take it."
Gu Beixian raised his eyebrows and said, "Aren't you angry?" "
Su Huaxin said, "Even if I'm angry, you still respond without delay."
She urged indifferently, "Pick it up quickly. Don't keep people waiting."
Gu Beixian gave her a deep look and pressed the answer button.
"Lock Lock, what's up?" "
From the other end came Chu Suosuo's weak and pitiful voice: "Brother Beixian, where have you been?" You didn't come to the hospital all day yesterday... Can you come today? I can't even eat if you don't come. I feel so bad...
Su Hua felt a wave of nausea in her stomach.
She tiptoed closer to the phone, imitating Chu Suosuo's soft and affectionate tone, but deliberately raised her voice: "Husband, are you coming or not?" We've been waiting for a long time."
There was an instant silence on the other end of the phone.
Gu Beixian lowered his eyes and looked at her with a half-smile.
Su Hua also looked at him expressionlessly.
It was unknown how long it had been before a soft voice came from the other end:
"Then go ahead and be busy..." Brother Beixian."
The call was hung up.
Su Hua said indifferently, "You'd better go and see her." I'm severely depressed and my hand is injured. If I really can't get over it, it will be my fault.
Gu Beixian rubbed her hair and said, "I'm going out to make a phone call."
-
He went outside and called Chu Mochen.
Send someone to keep an eye on Suo Suo... She just got a shock. I'm afraid she won't be able to figure it out.
Chu Mo sighed deeply, "She was spoiled by us since childhood." I always feel like I haven't completely broken off relations with you. I have no boundaries in doing things. I'm sorry to trouble you.
Gu Beixian said in a deep voice, "It's okay. I'm also responsible for her illness."
"Won't your wife be angry?" "
Gu Beixian slightly curled the corner of his mouth: "He has a very good temper and is very reasonable." "
They don't really care about me either.
But he didn't say it.
-
Back in the room, Su Hua leaned against the bed reading a book, her expression calm.
He sat down, gently touched her face and said softly, "I'm leaving."
"Um." "
"I'll come again tonight." "
"It's too far. You still have to work. Don't bother." "
Then come back with me. I'm worried that you, a girl, are in this place. My hands are all injured, and even eating is a problem. He lowered his head to examine her injuries.
Su Hua's heart ached for a moment.
He always pulled her back when she was determined to leave. When her heart softened, he stabbed her again.
This kind of entanglement is the most tormenting.
She withdrew her hand and said, "Go ahead. Don't come tonight." I grew up here since I was a child. Without you, I'm still doing just fine.
"Exactly." " Gu Beixian pinched her other hand and said, "You little girl, you look fragile, but in fact, you are tougher than me at heart."
Su Hua pursed her lips: "It's clearly you who have a hard heart."
"I'm really leaving. Aren't you going to see me off?" He asked.
Su Hua turned her head away and didn't look at him.
His gaze paused for a moment, then he turned and left.
-
At the door, I happened to run into Shen Huai.
Gu Beixian's expression turned cold: "When are you leaving?" "
Shen Huai smiled, "I'll take a few days off and be back the day after tomorrow." Su Hua's hand still needs a dressing change. It's easier for me to take care of her."
Gu Beixian's expression darkened as he looked at the two bodyguards who were still eating instant noodles beside him.
"Stay and protect Su Hua." "
The bodyguard immediately stood up and said, "All right, Mr. Gu."
He looked at Aunt Liu again and said, "Come with me."
-
In the car.
Aunt Liu was so nervous that she choked her hands. "Mr. Gu, yesterday the young madam asked me to turn off my phone. I dare not disobey her..."
"Not afraid." " Gu Beixian spoke in a soft voice, "I ask you, what's Su Hua's attitude towards that Shen?"
Aunt Liu thought for a moment and said, "The young madam was polite to him but kept her distance. It should be fine." But Dr. Shen was quite concerned about her. It was he who asked someone to delete the hospital surveillance footage, and it was also he who sent us. Do I need to tell him that the young madam is your wife?"
"No need." "Let her do whatever she wants." "
Gu Beixian handed over the check and said, "Take good care of her and don't let them be alone."
Aunt Liu nodded hurriedly.
-
The car started moving.
Gu Beixian glanced over but didn't see Su Hua. His heart felt empty.
Little one with no conscience, he searched for her all night, but she didn't even give him a ride.
It was not until the car was about to turn that he glanced back
At the intersection, a slender figure stood in the wind, wrapped in a white knitted sweater.
That little face is Su Hua.
The corners of his mouth curled up quietly.
She still has a bit of conscience.
-
As the car drove away, he leaned against the seat and suddenly recalled their first meeting three years ago.
At that time, she was only twenty years old, with a small face as white as snow and bright eyes, so beautiful that it took him by surprise.
She is not talkative. She answers every question asked and falls silent when not asked. With a polite smile on her face but a sense of distance, like the fixed expression in a photo, she just makes people feel soft.
It was very cold that day. Her hands were red from the cold and she was still waiting for him with a greeting gift.
The first time he saw those hands, for some reason, his heart softened.
That day, they got married and became husband and wife.
