Heartwarming Aristocratic Marriage: Influential Master’s Wife-Chasing Strategy - Chapter 1654
1654 to him, it was an impulsive crime (1)
dark clouds covered the moon, and in the night, only the late autumn wind was howling.
when duan yinuo arrived home, she saw that a soup was boiling in the kitchen. xu jiamu was sitting on the sofa, flipping through a thick medical book. when he saw her, he hurriedly got up. ” come over and let me take a look. are you really okay? ”
“i’m not injured.”
even though she said that, xu jiamu still checked her body for confirmation before he could relax. ” i told you … ”
“mom, i didn’t cause any trouble this time.”
“i know, but you’re just a little girl. if you encountered such a thing, you should just run. why did you fight with him? if gu yuan didn’t help you tonight, do you think you would be safe? what are you trying to do!”
“i know. i won’t do it again.” duan yinuo just wanted to see gu yuan, so she spoke to her in a perfunctory manner.
” go up and change your clothes. gu yuan is sleeping in the room next to your brother’s. go greet him and thank him after you change your clothes. ”
“yes.” as duan yinuo spoke, she even asked in a pretentious manner, ” where’s brother? ”
” i asked him to go to the pharmacy to buy some disinfectant and gauze. the things in the first aid box at home have been used up. ” if gu yuan lived here, it was hard to guarantee that he would be able to use it.
“then i’ll go up first.”
“what are you carrying in your hand?” xu jiamu narrowed his eyes, staring at the slightly dirty paper bag in her hands.
“it’s nothing,” she ran upstairs as she spoke.
**
when he passed by his room, he stopped at the door of one of the guest rooms. he took a deep breath, tidied his clothes, and knocked on the door.
“who is it?” a low voice passed through the door, making it even more dull.
“it’s me.” duan yinuo’s voice was a little hoarse.
the door was opened. gu yuan was standing at the door. he was wearing a gray woolen sweater, loose pants, and a white towel around his neck. he looked very homely.
he was usually dressed in black, and it was rare for him to be dressed so casually. his dark eyes were as calm as a deep pool as he stared at her …
it was as if he was being watched by the abyss and could be dragged into it at any time.
he turned his body sideways, and duan yinuo shrank her shoulders, trying not to touch her. she lowered her body and entered the room. the door was closed, and she felt nervous for no reason.
“how’s your hand?” it was clearly her own house, but she had no place to stay.
“it’s nothing.” he pulled the towel with one hand and wiped the wet hair on his forehead. it was not convenient for him to take a bath at this time, so he used one hand to wash his face. it was inevitable that his hair would get wet. he casually put the towel aside, his expression relaxed and cold.
“thank you,” he said.
“yes.” gu yuan walked past her. there was a smell on him. it was hot, warm, like coffee, a little bitter …
but it was very sweet.
it was as if he could set off a hot wind when he passed by. the air seemed to be dyed with some temperature, and his mood was a little dry.
he operated the computer mouse with one hand, which was equipped in the duan family’s guest room. duan yinuo only noticed that the video was on on his computer. earlier, only one desktop was shown, but now, the shrunken video was enlarged, and opposite him was a small person, half of his face squeezed in front of the camera.
“i’m busy, i’m hanging up.”
” uncle … ” the video call was cut off before the little one could speak.
then, the little one put down the tablet telegraph and began to shout all over the room in his tank top and shorts, ” “there’s a woman in uncle’s room, yingluo.” this little one not only knew how to run, but he was also very eloquent.
after that, the gu family had a short meeting.
” speaking of which, xiao er hasn’t asked for money from our family for many years. i was wondering why he was short of money recently. so it’s because he’s in a relationship. ”
“dating is expensive, and the cost of living in the capital is high.”
“boss, can you transfer him some more money? i’m afraid he doesn’t have enough money.”
……
after gu yuan hung up the video call, he turned to look at duan yinuo. perhaps it was a little cold outside, but her lips were pale and blue. ” cold? ”
“it’s alright.” she jogged all the way upstairs. in addition to being alone in the room, she was a little nervous. at this time, her heart was dry and her face was red.
the duan family members were all very beautiful, and almost all of them looked like peach blossoms in spring. duan yinuo was naturally not bad, and at this time, her face was white with a hint of red, and she looked very fresh.
her eyes were fixed on him. she was a little nervous, but her eyes were glowing.
“i still have to thank you for tonight. i was the one who asked you out, and i even caused you to get hurt …”
he turned off the computer and leaned over to her. duan yinuo was a bold person, and she stared at him with her dark eyes, which were as deep as an abyss.
however, no matter how bold she was, when she really met the person she liked, she couldn’t help but be a little shy and look away.
“what do you want with me tonight?”
he leaned over again. from duan yinuo’s angle, she could see that he was wearing a gray sweater on his chest. it was a warm and soft material, and when he spoke …
duan yinuo felt a gust of hot wind in her ears.
it was a little soft.
she turned her head slightly, and their eyes met. his abyss-like black eyes crashed into her, and her heart throbbed fiercely. however, he had already passed her.
the heat dissipated.
“why aren’t you saying anything?” his voice was very faint.
“i wanted to give you something.” duan yinuo was a little flustered as she opened the packaging of the bag in her hand. there was a handcrafted keyboard inside. the brand was not popular, and everyone who knew the good knew that it was not cheap.
“how did you buy it?” this type of mechanical keyboard had long been discontinued and was considered out of print.
“i definitely have my own way. i have many friends, and i asked people to help me find them.”
gu yuan walked over, his fingers tapping on the keyboard twice. his fingers were slender and his joints were distinct. when they landed on the retro-looking metallic keyboard, they seemed to merge into one beautiful piece.
“why are you giving me this?” gu yuan tilted his head to look at her. the two of them were standing in front of the keyboard, and the distance between them was closer.
“what?” duan yinuo thought that he would praise her for her good keyboard and was stunned for two seconds.
“you want to compensate me for what you did to me before?”
” no, i … ” duan yinuo said this to celebrate him completing his first project.
“you’re not?” gu yuan squinted at her. ” speaking of which, you haven’t given me an explanation for what happened that time. ”
duan yinuo recalled what had happened earlier and subconsciously wanted to escape. however, before she could move, gu yuan seemed to have told her what she wanted to do in advance. he turned slightly and blocked her way.
“you …”
“did you block me like this that time?”
” that time, i was just acting on impulse, so … ” duan yinuo was tongue-tied. she only hated that she had really lost her mind at that time, and for him …
“hot-headed?”
” at that time, i was … ” duan yinuo had no other choice at this time. if this were any other time, she would have pushed him away and run away. however, he was injured at this time, so she did not dare to act rashly. she could only watch as he approached her step by step.
“i can sue you for molestation, what do you think?” his tone was too serious, as if he could send her to the police station with a flip of his hand.
duan yinuo was speechless.
” an impulsive crime, a provocative … crime. it’s also a crime, right? ” gu yuan stared at her so intently that duan yinuo felt a little guilty.
at this time, lin bai was on his way home. because he had lowered the window to let in the cool wind to dispel the dryness and calm his mood, he couldn’t help but sneeze when his clothes were blown by the wind.
the assistant immediately rolled up the window and was about to tell him to wear a coat and keep warm when duan linbai sneezed several times in a row.
“it’s too cold today.”
