"How is it? Is Your injury serious? " Zhao Siqing asked worriedly.
Nalan Yanran was about to say that it wasn't serious when she heard Gu Shiyu say gently, "it's quite serious. I couldn't get up even if I fell to the ground. "
Nalan Yanran was stunned for a few seconds. She thought about the position where she was being held by Gu Shiyu and finally chose to shut up.
Zhao Siqing looked at Nalan Yanran's injury from top to bottom and said gently, "why don't we go back first and call a doctor to treat your wound? "
"Alright. " Seeing that Zhao Siqing didn't seem to be too interested in riding a horse, Nalan Yanran didn't insist.
The group left together. Nalan Yanran looked at Gu Shiyu and said, "why don't you put me down first? I seem to feel better now. "
Gu Shiyu glanced at her indifferently and didn't force her. He put her down on the ground.
Nalan Yanran was much more comfortable now that she was free.
However, the injuries were real. She couldn't use much strength when she limped.
Fortunately, this kind of injury was common to her. Other than the fact that her walking posture wasn't very beautiful, Nalan Yanran felt that it wasn't too bad.
Gu Shiyu grabbed her arm from the side and didn't say anything. He just wanted to prevent her from falling.
Nalan Yanran couldn't help but glance at him. She wondered when he had become so kind. It was really creepy.
The man's big hand was clean and slender, especially powerful.
So much so that Nalan Yanran couldn't help but focus her attention on his hand, thinking about the previous bet.
Why did he ask her to go to the room?
He wouldn't be so bold as to do something to her in the Huo family, would he.
This man was so cold. He probably wouldn't even take a bite of the meat that was right in front of his mouth. He shouldn't have such thoughts... ...
After thinking about it for a while, the group returned to the room.
Zhao Siqing and Huo Jingchen were the first to go to the kitchen. They made a lot of dumplings and planned to make dumplings together later.
The New Year's Eve dinner was prepared by the chef. In addition, the group of people were not experts, so they planned to make their own dumplings to join in the fun.
Mrs. Gu and Yang Jingqiu came to help. Mrs. Gu was a good cook, but it was obvious that Yang Jingqiu was not good at this.
The kitchen rang with ping-pong sounds from time to time. It was mostly Yang Jingqiu who broke the bowls and chopsticks.
"Mom, where's Yancheng? " Zhao Siqing looked at Yang Jingqiu and felt that she had not seen Zhao Yancheng all afternoon.
"He said he's going to visit the grave. " Yang Jingqiu threw away the chopsticks in her hand, feeling a little discouraged.
"whose grave? " Zhao Siqing asked softly, wondering if it was his biological father's grave or someone else's?
"I don't know, " Yang Jingqiu answered straightforwardly.
Hearing this, Zhao Siqing didn't ask any more questions. She planned to bring the dumplings to the living room first.
"I'll... I'll do it. You go and rest for a while, " Mrs. Gu said gently. Obviously, it was a little awkward to be in the same space as Yang Jingqiu and Zhao Siqing.
The casual relationship between Zhao Siqing and Yang Jingqiu made her feel like an outsider as her biological mother.
However, she also understood that the more than 20 years of strangers and the misunderstanding and estrangement over the past year were destined to not allow Zhao Siqing and her to be as close as Yang Jingqiu.
But this person, sometimes, understood the logic.
But emotionally, it was inevitable to be sad and disappointed.
Looking at the back view of Mrs. Gu Turning to leave, Yang Jingqiu withdrew her gaze and walked to Zhao Siqing's side. As she rubbed her noodles, she said, "Qingqing. "
"HMM? "
"since the Gu family is willing to protect you, there's no need for you to dwell on the past, " Yang Jingqiu said softly.
