Chapter 28 We Go Home

in the other, walking towards the room. 。On either side, the reporters saw Gu Chi's serious expression and quickly stepped aside to let them pass. 。But when everyone heard that Gu Chi had reunited wit...Su Keixin didn't want to argue back, nor did he want to explain. Because he knew that for someone who had never trusted him, no amount of explanation would be right.

"I'm sorry." She apologized with a blank expression, but her voice lacked any remorse.

For such an insincere apology, Gu Yichen's face turned even worse. Just as he opened his mouth to say something, Lin Xiaoru suddenly reached out and grabbed his sleeve, looking pitiful and said, "Ah Han, forget it. Sister has already apologized. Don't hold a grudge against her."

It has to be said, Lin Xiaoru really understands men too well.

Although she hated Su Kexin, she knew that no matter what, Su Kexin was Gu Yichen's first love. And no man likes a pushy woman; they only like considerate and generous women. Therefore, her words made her appear more gentle and caring, highlighting how oblivious Su Kexin was.

Su Kexin couldn't possibly not understand. She just felt a tightness in her chest, and she couldn't help but cough softly.

“Ouch.” As soon as she heard the cough, Ginger Ling, who had just been scowling, quickly pulled Lin Xiaoru away. “Su Kexin, you still have a cold You said you had a cold and came to eat with us Are you deliberately trying to infect us”

At such absurd words, Su Keixin only found it laughable. But when she looked up, she saw that the three people in front of her were indeed looking at her with a face full of suspicion.

She suddenly felt her heart grow even colder.

Well.

This is a family, loving and united.

And she, nothing more than an outsider, a complete and utter stranger.

Why is she putting herself through this

"Aunt Ginger, you're right," she said softly. "I have a cold and it's not good for me to eat with you all. You guys go ahead and eat. I'm going back home first."

After saying that, she no longer looked at the three people in front of her, just walked out of the wine cellar.

As she brushed past Lin Xiaoru, her steps faltered, and she turned her head just in time to catch the triumphant expression on Lin Xiaoru's face.

She smiled faintly.

"Little sister," she said, rarely calling Lin Xiaoru by that term, "I wish you and Professor Gu a happy wedding and a hundred years of happiness together."

After saying that, she turned and walked away without looking back.

When she walked out of the Lin family villa, she realized it was pitch black.

Just like Gu Chi's villa, Lin's villa was located in a secluded area, with no taxis or bus stops within a few kilometers. Su Keixin was about to open her ride-hailing app when her phone suddenly rang.

Seeing the caller ID was Gu Chi, Su Ke Xin was taken aback and quickly answered.

"Hey."

"Hey, it's me." Gu Chi's low and pleasant voice sounded through the phone. "Are you having dinner at your father's house"

For some reason, when she heard Gu Chi's voice at this moment, Su Keqin felt a few tears welling up.

"I don't think I can eat now," she said, trying to make her voice sound casual. "Because I have a cold and don't want to infect anyone else."

Gu Chi was silent on the phone for a moment, then asked, "Where are you now"

"I'm at Yuehai Villa. That... you eat first, have Zhang Ma leave a bowl of porridge for me, I'll be back soon."

Su Keqin finished speaking, but the phone fell silent. She frowned involuntarily and glanced at her phone, only to find that it had automatically shut down due to low battery.

Damn it. Why does my phone have to die at this time

Su Ke Xin pressed her phone several times in frustration, but there was still no response. She felt a bit on the verge of collapse.

Her phone is dead, how is she supposed to get home

Su Keqin tried her best to recall the location of the bus stop near the Lin family and walked towards it.

As luck would have it, she was still wearing high heels today. She hadn't taken a few steps before her heels started to hurt.

The Yuehai Villa District was huge, she felt like she had been walking for ages and still hadn't made it out.

The night wind was biting, and Su Ke Xin's clothes were thin. She couldn't help but pull her coat tighter and gritted her teeth as she continued walking forward.

After walking a few more steps, she suddenly saw car headlights flashing ahead.

Su Keqin was a little excited at first, thinking it might be a taxi, but she quickly became disappointed. It was a black private car.

It makes sense, how could there be taxis in this neighborhood The people who live here are from a completely different world than me.

But…

This car, how come it seems a bit familiar

Su Ke Xin hadn't had time to think further when she suddenly saw the car slowly driving up to her and stopping.

The car door opened, the metal plate dropped, and a man sitting in a wheelchair slowly slid down.

Su Keqin stiffened.

The halo of the car's headlights shone on the man's back, his face was obscured by the backlight, but the faint shadow still outlined the perfect lines of his face.

It is Gu Zhi.

At this moment, Su Kexin was so surprised that she couldn't even utter a word.

Gu Zhi's wheelchair stopped in front of Su Ke Xin, looking at her dumbfounded expression, he couldn't help but find it rather adorable.

He curled the corner of his lip and spoke, “What You see that I’m not happy”

Su Ke Xin only then came to her senses, instinctively shaking her head. "How could I not be happy..."

To be precise, it should be happiness.

When she was helpless, desperate and exhausted, Gu Chi appeared before her again, as if able to pull her out of the abyss of despair.

"Is that so" Hearing Su Ke Xin's words, Gu Chi's smile deepened, "Then let's go."

Su Ke Xin nodded, but just as she was about to get in the car, her high heels rubbed against the blister on her heel, and she couldn't help but gasp.

"What's wrong" Gu Chi keenly noticed Su Ke Xin's oddness, and saw her frowning at her own feet.

Gu Chi frowned slightly, his gaze also falling on Su Ke Xin's ankle, and he immediately saw the heel that had been worn down to blood.

"It's nothing, just my shoes rubbed my feet. A lot of girls have this problem, I'll just put a Band-Aid on it tomorrow. Ah...what are you doing Gu Chi..."

Su Ke Xin's face suddenly flushed red because Gu Chi actually bent down and reached out to grab her ankle.

Gu Chi sat in his wheelchair, already slightly lower than Su Kexin. Therefore, when he bent over, he naturally lifted up Su Kexin's scraped left foot.

The fingerbones, sharp and distinct, grazed Su Ke Xin's worn wound. Gu Chi's handsome brows furrowed even tighter, "It's bleeding"

Gu Chi's hand was rough with the unique coarseness of a man. The place where Su Ke Xin had been rubbed raw was already very sensitive, and when touched now, a strange feeling, like an electric current, shot from her ankle all over Su Ke Xin's body.

"It's just a minor injury." For some reason, Su Ke Xin only felt her heart beating faster, a little flustered and unable to speak. However, Gu Chi seemed not to hear her words at all, directly taking off her shoes.

"Huh" Su Keqin was even more dumbfounded now. She was still a short distance away from the car. Was Gu Chi asking her to hop over or walk barefoot

Obviously, neither answer is correct.

After taking off Su Kexin's shoes, Gu Chi held her hand tightly. Su Kexin, caught completely off guard, let out a surprised "Ah!" and fell into Gu Chi's arms.

Gu Chi sat in the wheelchair, Su Ke Xin leaning against his leg, the distance between them suddenly becoming extremely close.

"Gu Chi, what is this..."

Such close contact made Su Kexin even more flustered, but Gu Chi didn't pay attention to her. He just casually turned his wheelchair towards the car and whispered, "Let's go home."both just looking for a sense of vanity in each other at the beginning.”"Since we didn't truly love each other, I wouldn't cling to you like this. If it's over, it's over."After drinking Xu Zui Ning's...
