"Well..." Gu Yan rubbed her suddenly swollen temples and sat up with her body propped up.
Looking around at the unfamiliar environment, I couldn't realize what I had experienced last night.
"Where is this… "
Last night, he had a drink with his work colleagues, and then he met Wen Yunfeng. What happened next made Gu Yan unwilling to think about it, and she quickly shook her head.
With a "click" sound, the door of the house opened.
A man walked in with steaming milk.
I don't know if it was because of the sunshine or because he was no longer wearing a suit and leather shoes, but at this moment, Mo Yichen seemed much more approachable than usual.
"Are you awake?" A slightly nasal tone made Gu Yan come back to her senses from her brief daze.
"Well...last night, thank you."
Gu Yan took the milk and kept looking at the unique silk quilt covering her body.
"No, luckily nothing happened to you." Mo Yichen sat on the edge of the bed, the sunken position making the distance between the two people closer.
Mo Yichen's side face was really pretty, with sharp edges and corners, and there was still a slight green stubble on his chin after a night.
However, there are still bruises on the corners of his mouth from yesterday's fight.
"Is your face okay?"
"It's okay." He replied coldly, as if the injury on his face was not his.
The air was silent again.
"You can rest here for a while. I'll go out and talk to Wu Gang about something. Don't worry, this is an apartment under my name and no one else."
Mo Yichen seemed to be aware of the awkward atmosphere between the two, and stood up to leave.
"Hey, wait!"
Gu Yan quickly stretched out her hand and subconsciously grabbed the corner of the man's clothes.
A series of natural movements, like coquettishness, made Mo Yichen's body tremble and he looked back at her hands.
"Oh, no... no, I..." Gu Yan didn't know why she reacted like this. She realized something was wrong and quickly let go of her hand.
In fact, what Wen Yunfeng said in a hurry last night still bothered her, and she wanted to ask Mo Yichen about the truth of the matter.
"What's wrong? Is there anything else?"
Gu Yan pursed her lips and swallowed the words on her lips.
After all, Mo Yichen didn't take the initiative to tell him. If he asked directly like this, if Mo Yichen didn't allow him to meet Xiangyan, wouldn't it be worth the loss? Forget it.
"Ah, it's nothing. I just want to tell you. Remember to disinfect the corners of your mouth, otherwise your appearance will be disfigured."
The woman shrugged her shoulders pretending to be relaxed and changed the subject.
"Do you want to ask about Wen Yunfeng's situation? He..."
"no."
Before Mo Yichen could finish speaking, Gu Yan interrupted him.
From waking up to now, if Mo Yichen hadn't said it, Gu Yan wouldn't have wanted to think of this person at all.
The disgust was evident on his face, and he frowned, as if he smelled something unpleasant.
Mo Yichen was stunned and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, let's not talk about him."
"Now, I think very clearly that if I leave, I will leave. Not disturbing each other is the last bit of friendship for each other. However, Wen Yunfeng has wiped out even this little bit of affection, leaving nothing behind. I don't want to see it again. I don’t want this person anymore.”
Gu Yan closed her eyes gently and made a break.
"In this case, my suggestion is that you move in with me." Mo Yichen returned to sit on the edge of the bed.
Staring at Gu Yan's eyes seriously and waiting for her answer.
"Huh? What?"
Apparently, the woman didn't react.
How is this possible? Let alone living together, two people have to live together without even establishing a relationship
What was going on in Mo Yichen's head.
"I... I don't think it's appropriate?" Gu Yan wanted to be more polite in refusing, after all, he was a dignified CEO.
"It would be inappropriate for you not to come here. You saw it yesterday. Wen Yunfeng is so crazy now that you can't predict it. If you live alone, you will definitely encounter danger. I saved you this time. Then What if it happens again?”
Mo Yichen's worries suddenly came out. Maybe he didn't even notice that he was worried about someone like this.
"I… "
Gu Yan was confused by Mo Yichen's series of questions and didn't know how to respond. It was impossible to say she wasn't afraid, but in the current situation, it was inappropriate to live with Mo Yichen.
"Mr. Mo, I don't think we are ready to live together yet, right?"
Gu Yan's eyes shifted from the silk quilt to his face. She could tell that Mo Yichen was serious.
"I will protect you from now on." As he said this, Mo Yichen stretched out his hand to squeeze Gu Yan's little hand.
Gu Yan subconsciously hid.
Everything seems to be a dream, what does this sentence mean? Confession? promise
That's all, the acquaintance between the two people was just a bad relationship. Gu Yan closed her eyes, from the first meeting between the two people to the meeting with Chen Qian and Li Yunhong a few days ago.
Everything reminded her all the time to stay away from this man.
"What are you afraid of?"
The light in Mo Yichen's eyes suddenly dimmed.
"too tired."
Gu Yan put the milk on the head of the bed, hugged her legs and curled up on the bed. Her small body made people want to protect him.
Gu Yan's muffled voice was buried under the quilt: "I have experienced too much during this period, it was too fast, and I didn't even react. Sometimes when I suddenly have some free time, I will be surprised that this is me. What can I do? I still resist deep down in my heart, you don’t understand, I’m too tired.”
Mo Yichen stretched out his hand to touch her head, but stopped when he just touched her hair.
"Let me slow down. I need to be alone to digest these injuries."
Mo Yichen knew that the woman in front of him had locked up his heart. No matter how strong and outstanding she was, she was still a little girl deep down who longed to be protected.
"good."
Mo Yichen's voice sounded slowly above his head.
"You should have a good rest. I will ask Wu Gang to take you back to the studio later. Pay attention to your health in the past few days. If anything happens, call me immediately."
Mo Yichen stood up, pressed the quilt for Gu Yan, and left the room.
The woman turned her back to him. She didn't let out a long sigh of relief until she heard Mo Yichen leave the room.
Gu Yan fell asleep gently, with Mo Xiangyan and Mo Yichen lingering in her mind, and then Chen Qian, Li Yunhong, and Wen Yunfeng appeared.
She couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality. She knew she was too tired and needed a good rest.
