Si Yu was still thinking about Chu Yuan after class when a man clad in black and sunglasses blocked her way.
"Who are you?" Si Yu looked at him warily, her phone ready to dial the police at any time.
"Don't be nervous," The man smiled, stepped aside, and pointed to the luxury car behind him. Do you remember the old man you saved from the black market not long ago? He wants to thank you in person."
He opened the car door respectfully and smiled. "Miss Si, please."
Seeing that no one came in even after the car door was opened for a long time, Wu Guo seemed to understand her concerns. He smiled and leaned out of the car, saying gently, "Little girl, do you still remember me?"
"So it really is you." Si Yu was relieved and got into the car without much thought.
She carefully looked at Wu Guo's expression. Seeing that his face was ruddy and there was nothing unusual, she heaved a sigh of relief. "Actually, you don't have to thank me. It's just a small gesture."
Easy?
Wu Guo smiled even more kindly. "This is an old illness of mine. Many famous doctors have come to see me, and they all said that my illness is difficult to treat. Only you said that it was a piece of cake."
Upon hearing this, Si Yu took his pulse again seriously before letting go of his hand in relief. He still looked confident. "If you trust me, I can help you recover in less than a month."
Wu Guo saw her expression change from serious to relaxed, and now hearing her say this, he couldn't help but be stunned. After a long while, he nodded solemnly. "I believe you."
His life was saved by her, so what else did he have to doubt?
Moreover...
Wu Guo smiled as he sized up Si Yu. His gaze became meaningful. "Although this is the first time we've met, I actually knew your mother a long time ago."
Si Yu was stunned for a moment. Her eyes turned red, and her heart felt terrible, as if someone had suddenly clenched it. Her voice trembled as she begged for an answer. "You are? "
"I'm Wu Guo. I've met your mother a few times in the capital," Wu Guo said with a faint smile.
Si Yu wasn't surprised at all that Wu Guo would send people to investigate her. However, when she heard someone mention her mother, she couldn't help but feel her heart tremble. Even if it was just a trivial piece of news, it was enough to shake her to the core.
She missed her mother very much, so she was particularly eager to hear anything about her mother from others. She would drink poison to quench her thirst, trying to confirm her mother's existence from other people's words time and time again.
Wu Guo saw her dazed look and sighed softly, "She's already gone. Don't be too sad. Grandpa Wu will take you to eat something good, how about that?"
His method of coaxing a child made Si Yu's tears turn into laughter, and the haze in her heart was swept away a little.
She nodded, her eyes still filled with longing. "Just trust Grandpa Wu's arrangements."
When she got home, Kun You was just coming out of the bathroom.
A few drops of water could be seen dripping from his wet hair. They flowed down his wheat-colored neck, and curved down his towering collarbones, before finally flowing deep into the open bathrobe, leaving a line of water stains on his hard abdominal muscles.
Si Yu's face and ears turned red as he watched. He suddenly turned around and said, "I didn't see anything."
Kun You was amused by her frightened little white rabbit appearance, and for a moment, he had a naughty idea. He deliberately put his body against her back, his big palm against the white wall in front of her, trapping her in a small world. He curled his lips and smiled evilly. "Madam Yan, what else have you not seen?"
"Kun You!" Si Yu couldn't stand him breathing into her ear, and her body shuddered. He raised his hand to cover his eyes before he dared to turn around to face him. "It's still daytime! You're doing this in broad daylight!"
"Oh?" He took her hands away, lifted her chin, and forced her to look at him. "According to what my wife said, I am allowed to do some naughty things at night? "
"I didn't say that!" Si Yu bit down on his lower lip. His face was so swollen that it looked like it was about to spew fire.
She finally gathered her strength and pushed the person in front of her away. She gasped for air and said. "I want to take a shower too."
"Sure, I'll wait for you to have dinner." Kun You laughed as he looked at her as she ran away, his eyes still filled with loneliness.
She still hadn't completely accepted him, but it didn't matter. As long as he treated her well, she would fall in love with him one day.
