"Now, go take a shower, " the man added.
"Okay. "
Chu Xinlan didn't say anything. She just nodded and put her bag back into the distance. She felt tired physically and mentally.
When she thought of the smile on Ruo Chu's face when she was proposed to, she felt even more envious.
Huo Nanchen was really good to Ruo Chu. Ruo Chu was so happy that sometimes she even felt a little jealous.
That night, she didn't sleep much. She watched the two of them watching the fireworks on the lawn in the corner. She saw that the smile on Ruo Chu's face was brighter than ever.
How wonderful.
She wanted to be happy forever.
The next day, when Chu Xinlan woke up, she didn't see the person by the bed. She didn't know when they had left. She was stunned for a few seconds. She thought back to last night and was still a little stunned when she saw the various marks on her body.
When she got up and looked at herself in the mirror, her eyes were red and swollen. She looked like two light bulb eyes. Her face was as Pale as a ghost, especially the bite marks on her lips. Her hair was a mess.
She was in a terrible state.
Chu Xinlan didn't know how Gu Zexi had done it to her last night. He could do it with such a ghastly appearance.
After applying some concealer, Chu Xinlan started to go downstairs.
Breakfast was still being prepared, but Gu Zexi was already sitting at the dining table. Wan Qian must have slept in the villa last night.
She was very gentle and virtuous. She poured milk for Gu Zexi and peeled eggs for him. Her voice was extremely gentle.
"Good morning, Miss Chu. " The Butler noticed Chu Xinlan first and greeted her with a smile. Gu Zexi didn't make any movements from the beginning to the end. He just chewed the fresh bread in his hand mechanically.
He paid no attention to Chu Xinlan's attention from the beginning to the end.
Xiao Hua was angry when she saw Chu Xinlan's delicate look. She didn't even bring her breakfast and pretended not to see it.
Chu Xinlan only greeted the housekeeper and then said to Gu Zexi, "I'll go back first. "
"Wait a minute! "
A cold voice suddenly sounded. Chu Xinlan stopped walking and soon heard him say coldly, "take the medicine for me. "
She and he both knew what medicine was.
Speaking in public, Chu Xinlan naturally knew that apart from wanting to humiliate her, he wanted to make Wan Qian feel at ease.
She turned her head indifferently and met his cold eyes. She took the medicine and poured it into her mouth, swallowing it without even taking a sip of water.
Gu Zexi's heart trembled and he frowned even more.
Wan Qian looked very thoughtful and called out to Xiao Hua, "go and get Miss Chu a glass of water. "
Xiao Hua nodded, but she was still unwilling to get her a glass of water.
Chu Xinlan didn't want to care about their scheming. She just looked at Gu Zexi, who was sitting beside her.
"Can we go now? "
Her face seemed to have turned even Paler. Gu Zexi only nodded, as if he didn't want her to accidentally get pregnant with his child.
Xiao Hua laughed disdainfully as if she was watching a joke.
Wan Qian looked at Chu Xinlan's receding figure, and for some reason, the sense of danger in her heart grew deeper. Was it really as Xiao Hua had said, that Gu Zexi didn't love this woman at all, and that this woman was just trying her best to get close to him?
Why did she feel that something was wrong? It was as if she wasn't in control of her own expectations.
"Wan Qian. "
