Chapter 3 - Merry-Go-Around

The color on Qin Zhen's face alternated between red, white, and green like a palette as she glared at Xie Ru while frantically covering the exposed skin on her back. There were only three people in the room and two of them were without sight so no one would be able to see anything anyway. In the end, Qin Zhen slowly let out a sigh of relief.

Xie Ru looked at Qin Zhen's back and flustered look with a slight smile. 'Second Aunt, this is only the beginning.'

"She's actually blind?"

The woman looked so exquisite and rare that Gu Liao felt that it was such a shame that she was blind.

Xie Ru never expected Gu Liao, who was supposed to be in a vegetative state, to sit up from the bed. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and did not reveal the surprise on her face.

Otherwise, this scene would not be able to continue.

"Wh-Who's speaking?"

"Oh, so she can hear."

Xie Ru cursed in her heart. She was supposed to be blind, not deaf. Surely this guy couldn't have gone crazy from laying in bed for such a long time?

"Who are you? This is the Gu family's place and the young master of the Gu family is here. He is not someone you can provoke."

Gu Liao was indeed worthy of his reputation back then as the most eligible bachelor in the capital who was opposed to marriage. With his toned muscles, even Xie Ru who was used to seeing international male fashion models, was somewhat dazed.

She swallowed her saliva. This person actually dared to take off his clothes in front of her. Was he trying to seduce her?

Gu Liao put on his clothes as he looked at Xie Ru. Then, he turned around and searched the cabinet next to him for a while. When he turned back around, a bouncy ball appeared in his hand.

He casually played with the ball in his hand. What was this person trying to do?

In the next moment, Xie Ru understood what suffering was. A strong gust of wind suddenly smashed into her face. Though Xie Ru's eyes did not move, she was very nervous internally.

In the face of such danger, a person would react instinctively to avoid it. If Xie Ru was pretending to be blind, she would have definitely flinched. However, she did not even move an inch.

"She's really blind."

Gu Liao muttered to himself and then ignored Xie Ru. A blind person would not cause much trouble.

However, this move by the Xie family was really not what he had expected from them. They actually dared to switch in a blind person to fool the Gu family. Did they really think that he, Gu Liao, would be a vegetative cripple?

This man actually dared to use such a method to test her. 'Dear Young Master of the Gu family, I, Xie Ru, am not an ordinary woman.' She would not just sit still after being provoked.

"Who are you? Thief! Are you here to steal something? How bold. Help, help! Aunt Chen, help!" Xie Ru screamed in panic as if she had been provoked as she swung around and damaged a bunch of equipment in the room.

"What thief? Shut up, woman, I am Gu Liao."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Young Master Gu is a disabled vegetable. If you are Gu Liao, then I am Marilyn Monroe."

"I am Gu Liao. Those people from the Xie family lied to you."

Fortunately, the woman calmed down when she heard this. Otherwise, he would not have been able to handle it.

"You must be right."

Her sudden helplessness stung him. The Xie family was really worthless to actually lie to a blind person.

"Yes, I am Gu Liao. Making up such a reason was a test for the Xie family. I didn't expect..."

Xie Ru almost laughed out loud. No one told her that Gu Liao was a good actor.

He thought that the Xie family would leave her with the Gu family and abandon her. He did not expect that the Gu family would have two uninvited guests the next day.

"Xie Ru, how about Second Aunt bring you to the amusement park? You haven't been, have you?"

"Second Aunt, if my eyes were still fine, I would go and take a look. But I..."

Qin Zhen cursed herself for forgetting about this matter. She quickly responded, "Xie Ru, we can still go and enjoy the beauty of the amusement park. Don't worry, Second Aunt is here."

Xie Ru took a few more glances at Qin Zhen and Xie Wutong next to her. There must be something fishy going on. Since they wanted her to go out so badly, she would do as she was told for now. She wanted to see what kind of tricks the two of them could pull.

Xie Ru looked at the pair of mother and daughter who were trying to act as if they truly knew that she was blind, and sneered. It couldn't be that they were taking her to the amusement park to see the merry-go-round, right?
