Gu Tingyun was smiling, but Tang Jiao felt that this man really thought too highly of himself.
She whispered: "Isn't it...?"
She said softly: "Did I say something wrong? Think about it, are you a more trustworthy candidate?"
When asked like this, Gu Tingyun didn't dare to shamelessly say that he was the one.
He smiled and said seriously: "What you said seems to make sense."
Tang Jiao snorted and sighed: "It doesn't seem to make sense, but it definitely makes sense."
Gu Tingyun didn't have any unnecessary expressions. He only smiled and said slowly: "In that case, I should show off well. Otherwise, I'm afraid I will be disliked."
Tang Jiao pouted, nodded and said, "That's natural!"
The two looked at each other and smiled. Gu Tingyun looked at Tang Jiao like this. His hand gently slid on Tang Jiao's body and he whispered: "Does it hurt?"
There was intimacy in his tone.
Tang Jiao shook her head, but after thinking about it, she nodded again.
Gu Tingyun laughed and said, "Do you hesitate whether it hurts or not? It seems that you are not talking about me."
Tang Jiao said confidently: "Actually, I don't feel pain, but I can't say that I don't feel pain. If I say it doesn't feel good, you will feel more distressed and remember it more clearly! I will not give up this way of building a good impression on myself. "
Gu Tingyun nodded and acknowledged, "This is your habit."
Tang Jiao laughed and looked at Gu Tingyun. Gu Tingyun's face was pale. Although he tried his best to show his spirit, Tang Jiao was not stupid. Naturally, you can immediately see that something is wrong.
She whispered: "You are very tired."
This is a statement, not a question.
Gu Tingyun shook his head and said, "I'm actually fine."
How could Tang Jiao believe it? A man who had won the Liang Mucang the day before yesterday and had been busy since he woke up, with a face as ugly as if he was about to die, said that he was fine. Tang Jiao really didn't believe a single thing.
She snorted coldly and said, "You should take a good rest. Otherwise, you can leave what you want to do to me. Although I can't do everything for you, I'm not a fool after all, right?"
She helped him a lot back then.
But Gu Tingyun shook his head decisively.
Smiling slightly: "It's nothing."
Tang Jiao sneered and said, "You can't trust me?"
These words were nonsense. She naturally knew what Gu Tingyun was like. It was impossible not to believe this.
Gu Tingyun smiled meaningfully and said, "Yeah, I can't trust you. You are obediently preparing for the start of school. School starts in three days, right?"
Tang Jiao blew out a puff of air from her nostrils.
Gu Tingyun felt more and more amused. Looking at her bright little face, he gently rubbed the back of her hand with his fingers and whispered: "Just take care of yourself. I won't just let this matter go."
His smile gradually faded: "Since you dare to cause trouble in Shanghai, you have to see if I am easy to mess with."
Tang Jiao held his hand and said softly: "Actually, it's my fault. If I hadn't gone to watch the sunset, we wouldn't have been ambushed."
Thinking of what happened that day, Tang Jiao sighed, feeling that she was very unlucky.
However, Gu Tingyun said: "It's none of your business, they have already targeted me. As long as there is a slight chance, they will definitely take action. Not at that time, but also at other times."
He lowered his eyes and then said: "So you don't have to blame yourself at all. They will always find opportunities. It's just that I didn't expect to involve you. In fact... I just want you to live a simple and innocent life, and I don't want you to be trapped by me. I will be implicated in things. This will make me feel very uncomfortable."
The two communicated calmly, and Gu Tingyun said: "I'm just afraid that you will stay away from me because of this incident."
He said seriously: "This is what I'm really worried about. Other things don't matter."
Tang Jiao was speechless. She lowered her head and then raised her head: "I can't."
Gu Tingyun hummed and smiled: "What can't you do?"
Tang Jiao rolled her eyes at him with a hint of embarrassment.
Gu Tingyun suddenly came to her side and pressed a kiss on her cheek. He whispered: "I wonder if I can ask you a favor?"
Tang Jiao sighed and asked, "What?"
Gu Tingyun said: "My grandmother, please help me take care of her a little. Although there won't be any problems if I'm not here, the old man will always be worried if he is alone."
Tang Jiao frowned: "Don't she know you were injured?"
Gu Tingyun: "I know!"
He smiled: "There is nothing to hide. She has seen a lot of such things. She has also experienced a lot. But she is older after all... you understand?"
Tang Jiao nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll be able to handle it all with you."
Even so, she really wasn't sure if she could. As soon as he finished speaking, he stuck out his tongue: "If I offend her, you will help me deal with it in the future."
Gu Tingyun laughed, nodded and said: "Okay!"
"Dong dong dong" knocked on the door, and Gu Si's voice came at the door. He said, "Master Qi, Master Xiao is here to visit you."
Gu Tingyun showed no special expression and said, "Invite him in."
Huo Xiao walked in quickly. He was dressed in black and looked a little rough.
Tang Jiao laughed softly and said, "Master Qi, look at your character. Everyone who comes to visit you doesn't bring you anything."
Gu Tingyun smiled: "Yes! It's not that good. Otherwise, how could he be ambushed?"
Huo Xiao glanced at Tang Jiao, paused for a second, and quickly left.
He didn't bother to tell them what was available and what wasn't, and asked directly: "Is there anything I can do to help?"
Gu Tingyun smiled: "If I ask you for help, where do you think I should put my face?"
Huo Xiao smiled and nodded: "Yes!"
It's just that the smile doesn't reach his eyes.
He said: "I'm just casually polite."
Tang Jiao let go of Gu Tingyun's hand, but Gu Tingyun held her back, smiled at her, and said, "Can you help me wash some grapes?"
Tang Jiao looked at this and that, and burst out laughing. She said bluntly: "If you want to get rid of it, I'll just say it. You don't need to use the excuse of washing fruits, right? To be honest, it's pretty cool."
Gu Tingyun lowered his eyes, then smiled and said, "You saw it."
Tang Jiao nodded to Huo Xiao, and then asked, "Besides grapes, do you want to eat anything else?"
Gu Tingyun looked at Huo Xiao: "Is there anything else you need, Master Xiao?"
Tang Jiao had already begun to pick at the fruit basket and muttered: "There are cherries and strawberries..."
Huo Xiao actually rarely eats fruit, but by some strange combination of circumstances, he actually said, "Have some."
Tang Jiao looked at Huo Xiao in surprise, then said oh, half-smiling but not smiling: "You are really rude."
Huo Xiao was speechless.
She simply called to Gu Si: "Can you help me? My shoulder hurts. Please carry it over for me. I'll wash it more. It seems they want to eat fruit."
Gu Si agreed, then followed Tang Jiao out and closed the door behind her back.
Only Gu Tingyun and Huo Xiao were left in the room.
Gu Tingyun smiled: "I didn't know you liked fruits."
Huo Xiao didn't feel the embarrassment of being exposed, and said bluntly: "Didn't you greet me? Is it okay if you suddenly want to eat?"
Gu Tingyun raised his eyebrows.
The two fell silent.
But soon, Huo Xiao said again: "I wonder if you have any advice? I've already paid for it. If I don't tell her, she will come back soon, right?"
Gu Tingyun half-smiled: "She is not a little fool."
Of course he wasn't an idiot. If he were an idiot, he wouldn't have been able to help Gu Tingyun escape.
When he heard the news, he really felt that his heart skipped a beat.
Of course he would feel sorry for Gu Tingyun's death; but if something happened to Tang Jiao, he wasn't sure whether he would be able to stabilize himself.
He said: "Who ambushed you? Is it related to the Huo family's affairs?"
Gu Tingyun: "Probably! But I think I'll know soon. Just... there's one thing I want to ask you. When Lao Ba sent people to ambush you on the train, you captured all his weapons, right? ?”
When mentioning this, Huo Xiao raised the corner of his mouth: "No."
Gu Tingyun frowned slightly.
Huo Xiaodao: "It's true that those weapons are in my hands, but... I didn't capture those weapons. I bought them from an unscrupulous little girl who took advantage of others."
He said seriously: "I have money to spend."
Gu Tingyun was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "I guess you don't suffer, right? You are the one who runs the Qi family's business in Peiping, right?"
He was calm and smiled: "There will always be things that come and go."
Huo Xiao casually pulled up a chair, sat down, and said, "What comes and goes, isn't that what happens in this world? Besides, isn't his trading company used to redeem people? His men can go back safely. Am I still being merciful? Gu Tingyun, I also want to save face when he comes out to fool around. He is so shameless to me. I thought he was a child and was ignorant, so I only chose one of his businesses."
Gu Tingyun lowered his eyes, then smiled and said, "I thought it was more or less based on my face."
Huo Xiao raised his eyebrows: "It's for the sake of the Huo family."
The conversation between the two reached a deadlock, but soon, Huo Xiao said: "I will list all the models for you later."
Gu Tingyun nodded: "Thank you very much."
Huo Xiaodao: "No need to thank you. Although we are not friends, as long as it has something to do with the Huo family, I am obligated. And..." After a pause, he smiled: "This time it also involves others."
This "next", they all knew clearly was talking about Tang Jiao.
But the two of them didn't say it outright.
Huo Xiao asked: "Is Qi Ba related to this matter?"
Gu Tingyun shook his head: "He probably doesn't, but others may not."
He lowered his head, seeming to be thinking about something.
Huo Xiao said coldly: "If it is inconvenient for you to take action, I can naturally do it for you."
He half-smiled, "I won't ask for any wages."
Gu Tingyun shook his head: "No need."
There was a knock on the door, and Tang Jiao said, "Can I come in?"
Gu Tingyun said: "Come in."
Tang Jiao held two plates of fruit and smiled: "I didn't disturb you, did I? Have we finished talking?"
She smiled a little narrowly.
Gu Tingyun felt some kind of wound just by looking at her, and he really didn't feel anything at all.
He said: "Put it down quickly. Does your shoulder still hurt?"
Tang Jiao shook her head: "Actually, I don't have anything, I'm just a little stretched, it's not a big deal."
Gu Tingyun: "Take good care of yourself."
He was about to take the fruit plate from Tang Jiao's hand, but Huo Xiao was one step ahead of him, took it, and then said: "Don't do these things if you are injured."
Then he looked at Gu Tingyun: "Don't tell her to do this or that."
He did not receive any news about Tang Jiao's shoulder strain. Although it didn't look serious, Huo Xiao still pursed his lips and a stern look flashed in his eyes.
No matter who that person is, he will definitely not let it go this time, even though Gu Tingyun doesn't want him to interfere. But since it was related to the Huo family and implicated Tang Jiao, he definitely couldn't let it go.
Gu Tingyun does what Gu Tingyun does, and he does what he does.
"Did the doctor tell you whether it's okay or not?"
He looked at Tang Jiao with some worry.
Tang Jiao shook her head and said crisply: "What's the matter? It's all trivial. When you say that, I feel like I should be in bed. This guy was beaten twice and is still alive, I guess. what."
At this point, I paused for a moment... "You like eating strawberries very much."
Huo Xiao is holding a basin and eating strawberries. This scene is a bit... weird!
Gu Tingyun looked at Huo Xiao. Huo Xiao held a basin in one hand and did not regard himself as an outsider.
He smiled: "You just eat alone? You should consider that I am a patient."
Huo Xiao raised his eyebrows: "It is precisely because you are a patient that you should eat less of these things and eat more nourishing foods to nourish yourself."
The two people's eyes met, and there were sparks.
Tang Jiao thought these two people were a little strange!
She muttered: "It's just fruit, as for robbing it?"
hehe!
As for robbing
Gu Tingyun smiled slightly, is this the case
Sometimes there are things that cannot just be seen on the surface.
Gu Tingyun smiled meaningfully. He glanced at Huo Xiao and said, "Yes, it's just fruit. What are you trying to grab?"
Huo Xiao sneered softly, and then extended his hand to the grapes: "Who knows!"
The two people had something to say.
Tang Jiao frowned and looked at them: "What's wrong with you?"
