Yuan Xuan was so excited that Shi Tian hugged him so actively. He quickly raised his arms to wrap around Shi Tian's waist and pressed his face against Shi Tian's hair.
"Yuan Xuan, you don't know how much you helped me." Shi Tian whispered. During the days when he was with Gu Chenhuan, he had almost gone crazy due to the humiliation and suppression by Gu Chenhuan.
In extreme embarrassment, she still had to face Gu Chenhuan obediently, and when she was pressed by Gu Chenhuan, she still had to follow his will and cater to him.
Now, he is finally free.
"It's your duty to help my wife." Yuan Xuan rubbed Shi Tian's hair from the side of his face and said softly with his eyes closed, "I swear, I will never let you get hurt in the slightest while I'm here from now on."
Shi Tian got into Yuan Xuan's car, driven by Yuan Xuan's dedicated driver, and was rushing to the hospital where Shi Vietnam was staying in Linshi.
In the car, Shi Tian asked Yuan Xuan how he knew the truth about the fire at Shi's house four years ago, because during the banquet, Shi Tian knew during the phone call with his father that his father did not know the cause of the fire.
Shi Vietnam only knew that Gu Chenhuan refused to save his wife, and that during the fire four years ago, Gu Chenhuan led people to empty the underground vault of Shi's family.
Yuan Xuan truthfully told Shi Tian that he only knew Gu Chenhuan's identity four years ago and the bad things he did to the Shi family four years ago because he received an anonymous letter. He was so bold and confident in provoking Gu Chenhuan.
"Letter?" Shi Tian had a bad premonition, "You don't even know whether this letter is true or not, so you come to provoke Gu Chenhuan? Aren't you afraid..."
"I'm not afraid." Yuan Xuan interrupted Shi Tian with a smile, "I planned to have a fight with my uncle after I rescued him from Gu Chenhuan's surveillance. I originally planned to answer uncle's phone call for him. I wanted to see the frustration he showed after knowing that his uncle was out of his control, but I didn't expect you, Xiaotian, to come, so I changed my plan. As for the content of the letter, I just wanted to give it a try. I said it at the banquet, hey, I didn’t expect it to be right. Did you see Gu Chenhuan’s face at that time? Haha, I guess he was furious at that time.”
Yuan Xuan's careless words sent chills down Shi Tian's back, because Shi Tian always felt that someone was plotting behind his back, secretly pushing Yuan Xuan and Gu Chenhuan to confront each other head-on.
But who is it
Could it be that I am overthinking it
Yuan Xuan saw Shi Tian's complex expression, as if he was worried about something, so he coughed a few times, secretly moved his body closer to Shi Tian, and finally carefully held Shi Tian's slightly cold hand and comforted him, "Don't worry, Xiao Tian. Gu Chenhuan is not as powerful as you think. Even if he wants to take revenge afterwards, I have the confidence to fight him. "
Shi Tian's face was still ugly. He didn't want to admit that he was now afraid of Gu Chenhuan.
No matter how much he hates Gu Chenhuan or how courageous he is to deal with Gu Chenhuan, deep down, he still feels afraid of him.
It was a fear from the bottom of his heart, maybe because he had been raped and beaten by Gu Chenhuan. In Shi Tian's eyes, he and Gu Chenhuan would fight, and in the end it would be him who would be covered with bruises.
Because once things deviate from Gu Chenhuan's expected track, Gu Chenhuan will become an out-and-out lunatic.
Gu Chenhuan desperately wanted to obey him, and he was very disgusted with people provoking him around him. Now that these two things were happening at the same time and at opposite paces, Shi Tian was really worried about what kind of counterattack Gu Chenhuan would make to him or Yuan Xuan next.
Although he was afraid, Shitian still didn't want to go back to Gu Chenhuan. He was really fed up with the life of a lover without dignity.
Let him be selfish for once. No matter how Gu Chenhuan deals with Yuan Xuan, he will risk his life to bear it with him.
The car drove for nearly three hours before arriving at the hospital where Shi Vietnam was staying in Linshi. It was already past one o'clock in the morning. When Shi Tian arrived at Shi Vietnam's ward, he wanted to take a quick look and leave, and then come back tomorrow morning. , but unexpectedly found that his father was still awake, leaning on the bedside, seeming to be waiting for him.
"Xiaotian, you talk to your uncle first. I'll find a hotel nearby and pick you up later." After Yuan Xuan finished speaking, he scratched his head and said with an apologetic look, "Xiaotian, I didn't tell my uncle about you and Gu Chenhuan. relationship, but... But I lied to my uncle and said that Gu Chenhuan threatened you to do dirty things for him. He was threatening you, and later my uncle kept asking me why Gu Chenhuan was threatening you, and I... I couldn't help it, so I just..."
Shi Tian smiled bitterly, "This is much better than telling the truth."
At least, he still has dignity in front of himself and his father.
If his father knew that he had been Gu Chenhuan's lover, not only would his father collapse, but he himself would also immediately despair.
"Uncle has surgery tomorrow morning. It's already early in the morning. Don't talk for too long. Just comfort him and let him rest."
"Ok, I know."
"Then I'll book a hotel first. I forgot my wallet and I don't have much cash on me, so I... I'll just book a room." As he spoke, Yuan Xuan blushed and his eyes drifted to nowhere.
"Well, it's fine if you can sleep."
"Hey, that's good." Yuan Xuan was as excited as if he had been given a shot of blood. "I'm going to book a room right now and buy some midnight snacks. I'll pick you up in twenty minutes."
Looking at Yuan Xuan's happily leaving figure, Shi Tian frowned in confusion.
Why is this man so happy all of a sudden
--------
"Dad." Shi Tian yelled bravely, not daring to meet his father's eyes. He walked to the bed and sat on a chair, "I will have surgery tomorrow, and... it's better to go to bed early."
"Xiaotian, tell the truth to dad." Shi Yuetue was not angry, but looked at Shitian with a distressed look on his face, "What did you do for Gu Chenhuan?"
"Didn't Yuan Xuan tell you?" Shi Tian avoided his father's probing gaze, "I... I just help him do some underworld things."
"What's the matter?" Shi Vietnam continued to ask, "He should have many people working for him. Why is there only one missing you? Xiaotian, tell me the truth, did he force you to do something you didn't want to do?" Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to threaten you with my life." Shi Vietnam held Shi Tian's hand with a worried look on his face.
"Dad, you are overthinking." Shi Tian smiled, "Gu Chenhuan used to be my bodyguard. Dad, you know how I treated him at that time. Now that he is rich, he threatens me to be his subordinate. He probably wants to enjoy that." Feel the sense of victory that you have trampled your master under your feet.”
Hearing what Shi Tian said, Shi Vietnam's face relaxed a lot, but then he looked hurt again, "Gu Chenhuan...has he given you a lot of embarrassment and been making things difficult for you..."
In order to prevent himself and his father from thinking about other things, Shi Tian could only follow his father's words, "... yes."
"That beast!" Shi Yue said angrily, "I thought he would feel a little guilty about what happened in the past and take care of you, but I didn't expect..."
"Dad." Shi Tian bit his lip and whispered after a long time, "Can you tell me something about the fire four years ago?"
