"You don't have anywhere else to go now, do you?"

Gu Ruo nodded, lowered his head, bit his lower lip, and stood there weakly.

"Want to stay?"

Gu Ruo bit her lip tightly and didn't dare to answer.

Gu Zixi is too sharp, or in other words, Gu Zixi sometimes sees people's hearts too thoroughly, and she is a little afraid of her.

"If you don't speak, you're acquiescing?" Zi Xi was always indifferent, and his tone couldn't say how good it was, but he couldn't say how bad it was.

After a while, Gu Ruo's voice sounded weakly, "I...... Is that okay?"

Zixi smiled at her, "You have to help me with one thing before I can stay." ”

"What is it?" Gu Ruo's eyes flashed. It seems that as long as she can stay, she can do whatever she wants.

In the afternoon, Gu Ruo left the villa.

Zi Xi stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at Gu Ruo's figure gradually moving away, her face was unprecedentedly solemn.

What awaits her?

According to the address given by Zixi, Gu Ruo arrived at the winery and was stopped by the security guard at the door, "Who are you?"

Gu Ruo raised a sweet and well-behaved smile, "I'm looking for Mr. Tan, can you please inform me?"

Only then did the security guard look at the girl in front of him, slender and thin, as if a gust of wind could blow it down, "Wait." ”

The security guard picked up the walkie-talkie, "Manager Mo, there is a girl at the door looking for Mr. Tan." ”

There was a bit of noise on the intercom, "You asked her what her last name was." ”

Gu Ruo didn't wait for the security guard to ask, so he replied, "My surname is Gu." ”

The intercom said "Got it", and there was no sound, and after a while, the door opened, and a young man in a suit walked out.

When his gaze fell on Gu Ruo's face, there was obviously a trace of surprise, as if the person who should be seen should not be this face, with a little stunned, "Are you?"

"My name is Gu Ruo, and my sister called me here. Gu Ruo was very smart, and almost quickly noticed something, and immediately reported to his family, "My sister is Gu Zixi." ”

The skeptical glint in the young man's eyes was extinguished, and he nodded and said, "Come with me." ”

The young man turned around and walked inside, and Gu Ruonuo followed.

After getting on the elevator and walking down the long corridor, the young man's footsteps stopped in front of a door.

He raised his hand and tapped three times before pushing the door in, "Sir, this young lady is looking for you." ”

The house was warm and brightly lit.

Completely ancient European style decoration, in front of the mahogany table, sits a tall figure.

When Gu Ruo saw Tan Qing for the first time, he had a feeling: this man's heart was absolutely the opposite of his gentle and elegant appearance.

Tan Qing closed the document in his hand, leaned back, leaned back on the chair, and raised his hand to signal, "Sit." ”

Gu Ruo walked over and sat down on the chair opposite him.

The young man withdrew silently, and only the two of them were left in the room.

"Hello, my name is Gu Ruo, my sister is Gu Zixi, she asked me to come to you. I want to ask you, is there already an eyebrow for what she is asking for?"

Tan Qing put one hand on the arm of the chair, and the other hand on the tabletop, leaning back, his fingers tapping on the tabletop without a match.

"Your name is Gu Ruo?"

He looked at the girl in front of him, and his eyes were secretive, reflecting a compelling light, as if he could see through all her thoughts at a glance.

"Yes. Gu Ruo pursed her lips, in front of such a man, her unconsciously nervousness was nervous from the heart, not pretended.

"Gu Zixi is your sister?" Tan Qing asked again.

Gu Ruo didn't know what he meant by this question, so he could only answer truthfully, "Yes." ”

"Last time you offended my brother with your father, who did you pay back the 200,000 you owed?"

Gu Ruo was stunned, he actually knew about this?

Wait a minute...... He just said that his brother ......

Who is this Mr. Tan?

Gu Ruo beat the drum in his heart, but he could only answer honestly, "It's my sister." ”

This feeling of being controlled by others is really uncomfortable. From the moment she entered the door, Tan Qing was polite and polite to her, but she was always shackled in her aura, making her feel like she couldn't raise her head and couldn't breathe.

"You have a good relationship with Miss Gu?" Tan Qing asked again.

Gu Ruo took a deep breath and raised his eyes to look into the eyes of the man opposite, "Mr. Tan, what do you want to say?"

Tan Qing smiled, he smiled very kindly, but in those dark eyes, there was no trace of emotion, like a piece of ice, freezing so cold that people's limbs and bones were cold.

This man is terrible!

It's even more terrifying than Zhan Tingyu!

"Don't get me wrong, I just wanted to ask. After all, what Miss Gu asked me to do is not a trivial matter. ”

Gu Ruo frowned, "Mr. Tan, don't you believe me?"

Tan Qing didn't speak again.

The only thing in this world that can make him believe is himself.

Gu Ruo pulled the corners of his mouth and stood up, "Since Mr. Tan doesn't believe me, then forget it, I'll go back and tell my sister truthfully." But you probably don't know where she's going......"

She paused, and then said, "She is now locked up at home by my brother-in-law, and she won't leave the door, because she really can't help it, so she let me come." ”

Tan Qing nodded, "So, you were indeed sent by Miss Gu." ”

"Of course. Gu Ruo raised her chin, "Although my sister and I are not biological, in my heart, she is my own sister." Whatever she wants me to do, I am willing, even if it is to give my life. ”

"......" Tan Qing was silent, and didn't say much about her impassioned statement.

There was a brief silence in the room for a while, and Gu Ruo began to worry in her heart again, could she have said something wrong just now?

After a while, Tan Qing sat up straight, staring at Gu Ruo with his eyes like an eagle, and said with a smile, "You are very smart." ”

Gu Ruo's heart was raised, because she couldn't hear whether this sentence was a sincere compliment, or was it debunking something.

Tan Qing took out a sealed envelope from the drawer and handed it over, "There is something your sister wants in here, using a special potion, once you open it and read it, within a few minutes, the handwriting on it will disappear." ”

Gu Ruo's hand stiffened fiercely, "Are you suspicious that I want to peek?"

Tan Qing was noncommittal.

Gu Ruo was angry in her heart, but this was someone else's territory, and besides, she didn't have the strength to argue with him now. took the envelope and thanked him, turned around to leave, but suddenly thought of something, and turned around again, "Mr. Tan, do you like my sister?"

Tan Qing's expression was deep, but there was always a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, "What do you say?"

Gu Ruo thought for a while, "I think that a person like Mr. Tan should not be an amorous son, I guess you approached my sister because of Zhan Tingyu, right?"

Although she didn't know what his identity was, just this side, she could probably conclude that the contest between him and Zhan Tingyu should be weighed against each other.

Gu Zixi is just an ordinary girl, although she looks good, her temper is like a stone, smelly and hard. A man like this in a high position, there is no shortage of women who want to look like, how can he easily fall in love with her?

Aren't men all chasing power?

Thinking about it this way, she probably understood.

Tan Qing leaned back in the chair, his smile was hidden outside the light shadow, looking eerie, "I said, you are very smart." ”

As if he had received the proof in his heart, Gu Ruo felt a lot better.

She is on par with Gu Zixi, why should all the excellent men belong to her? Knowing that Tan Qing has other plans, she is also relieved.

Walking out of the gate of the winery, it was already raining lightly outside.

A black car stopped at the door, and a young man in a suit stood at the door, opened the door, and said to Gu Ruo, "Miss Gu, please get in the car." ”

Gu Ruo was stunned for a moment, "No need, I can take a taxi back by myself......"

"Mr. Tan told me to send you back and watch you enter the house with my own eyes. The young man recounted with a blank face.

"......" Gu Ruo narrowed her eyes, still not believing her.

She quietly pinched the envelope in her pocket, what kind of secret was there between the thin paper?

Because there were Tan Qing's people "escorting" all the way, Gu Ruo never had a chance to open the letter, and when she arrived at the door of the Blue Bay Villa, she got out of the car, and the car did not leave immediately, but stopped in place, and watched her enter the house before slowly driving away from the rain.

The door closed softly behind him, and the room was silent.

Gu Ruo took out the letter, looked down at the seal, and his heart was pounding.

Do you want to open it and take a look?

Maybe, there is a secret she wants to know very much, maybe it is evidence of Gu Zixi's collusion with Tan Qing!

Such a great opportunity, if you just miss it......

In just a few seconds, a lot of thoughts flashed through Gu Ruo's mind, her movements were one step faster than her thoughts, and she had already started to open the envelope.

"Are you back?" A voice suddenly sounded in front of her, Gu Ruo's heart was weak, her hand shook, and the envelope fell to the floor.

She looked at Gu Zixi who was walking slowly in shock, watched her bend down and pick up the envelope on the ground, and pulled the corners of her mouth, "Yes...... Oh, yes...... Oh, sister, this is the letter that Mr. Tan wants me to pass on to you. ”

Zixi looked at the envelope, "Thank you, thank you for your hard work, rest." ”

After saying that, he turned and went upstairs.

Gu Ruo shook his fingers, changed his shoes, and walked into the living room with a solemn expression.

What a great opportunity......

Zixi sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the materials taken out of the envelope bag, and the feeling of heartache hit again.

AM is a battle court!

Chi Xu is also his person, but now he has been killed, and there is no proof of death.

And among the news that Tan Qing brought her, there was even more important - the Gu family suddenly underwent drastic changes and almost went bankrupt, which was also the handiwork of Zhan Tingyu.

first set up a trap for the Gu family, and then stretched out a straw when the Gu family was most desperate.

It's all a play he directed and acted in!

But why?

He is high, why should he not get along with the Gu family, why should he marry her?

Zixi thought about it for an afternoon, and her head ached and she didn't understand.

But one thing is clear - if this is the case, then Zhan Tingyu is the murderer who indirectly killed the Gu family and grandfather!

When Zhan Tingyu returned, it was already completely dark, and it was still raining lightly outside.

There were only a few dimly lit lights in the room, and he took off his shoes and went inside, pulling his tie as he walked inside.

On the sofa, there is a figure moving slightly. A slender body fell asleep on its side with its back to him, with a thin blanket on its body, as if disturbed by him, flipped a little, and continued to sleep.

Zhan Tingyu went to the kitchen and poured a glass of water to drink, and when he came out again, the people on the sofa had already fallen asleep.

How to sleep here?

He approached with a frown, and in the dim light, he saw the dress she was wearing, which he had bought for Zixi, and had been hanging in her closet, and had never seen her wear it.

Since returning from last night's dinner, she has rejected him desperately, and he is in a very bad mood.

Seeing that dress at this moment, Zhan Tingyu suddenly thought, did she deliberately wear this skirt and wait for him to come back in the living room?

"Little goblin~" He pulled the corners of his mouth, reached out and grabbed her arm, and took her into his arms domineeringly.

The smell of the woman's body rushed into his nose, but it was not what he was familiar with, but a faint smell of medicine, even a little pungent.

He snapped back to his senses, tore away the woman in his arms, and fixed his eyes on the pale, panicked little face in front of him, and his eyebrows suddenly twisted.

"Sister...... Brother-in-law ......" Gu Ruo opened his mouth tremblingly, his body trembled like chaff, his eyes turned red all of a sudden, and tears swirled in his eyes.

"Is it you?" Zhan Tingyu said without warmth, and the storm condensed in the center of his eyebrows.

The next second, he stood up suddenly, and ripped open the blanket on her body, "Who gave you this dress?"

"Yes......" Gu Ruo was so frightened that she cried.

"It's me!" In the dark, Gu Zixi's voice came from the staircase, Gu Ruo was stunned, and looked over with Zhan Tingyu's gaze.

Zixi stood at the top of the stairs with no expression on his face, looking at the two people in the living room.

To be precise, she didn't look at Gu Ruo, but looked at Zhan Tingyu with an expressionless face.

Zhan Tingyu narrowed her eyes, danger burst out of his eyes, she dared to play with him!

Gu Ruo also sensed that the atmosphere was wrong, stood up from the sofa, and sobbed: "Sister...... Brother-in-law, it's none of my sister's business, it's my ......"

Zhan Tingyu didn't look at her, and an angry low roar overflowed from between his teeth, "Get out!"

Gu Ruose shrank and glanced at Zixi.

But Zixi didn't look at her, and her eyes kept looking at Zhan Tingyu.

She bit her lip, silently opened the door and walked out.

The moment the door closed, the man standing by the sofa suddenly raised his feet and walked over, with the momentum of thunder, his fingers pinched Zixi's arm, and the force was so great that she staggered her whole body.

"Do you want to die?" his inky eyes stared at hers, and his voice was hoarse, as if he was trying to suppress the fire in his body.

At this moment, he really wanted to strangle the woman in front of him!

Gu Zixi looked back at him very seriously, "Mr. Zhan is not dead, how can I die?"

is still so expressionless, and the words he says are like being sandwiched with ice, which pierces his heart.

Zhan Tingyu pinched her shoulders, and through her clothes, her nails seemed to be able to pinch directly into the flesh, and even lifted her whole person off the ground.

"Heh~~" After a long time, he let out a cold sneer, "It seems that I have been too used to you recently, which has made you more and more unscrupulous." ”

After speaking, he suddenly pushed Zi Xi away and wanted to pass by her.

Zi Xi patted her shoulder, but the pain on it didn't seem to exist at all, she only said coldly, "Zhan Tingyu." ”

This is the first time she has called him by his first name.

Zhan Tingyu stopped and looked at her coldly.

Zhan Tingyu?hehe~ Good job!

The wine burned in his heart, and he suddenly bent down and pinched Zixi's jaw, "Gu Zixi, I think you're really tired, huh?"

Zi Xi stared at his eyes, "Why did you want to help the Gu family in the first place?"

Zhan Tingyu squinted.

Zi Xi said: "Before helping the Gu family, why do you want to harm the Gu family?"

"......" Zhan Tingyu's face suddenly turned cold, and the surrounding air flow seemed to freeze into ice, and even the slightest sound of shattering could be heard.

He's really angry!

Ke Zixi was still saying, "AM is a chess piece in your hand, in order to give the Gu family the last blow, and then come forward to clean up the mess and pretend to be a good person in front of me." Chi Xu is your person, but after the matter is revealed, you are afraid that he will leak it, so you kill people and kill them. My grandfather was indirectly killed by you, and you met two days before he died. After you left, Grandpa vomited blood and fell into a coma! Zhan Tingyu, you are such a heinous bastard!"

Zhan Tingyu suddenly held her hands, his eyes were fierce, "Yes, so what?"

Zi Xi's heart seemed to have been poked into a big hole by something, and all the strength of the questioning just now was swallowed up by that hole, gurgling with blood.

Tears flowed from the corners of the eyes, down the cheeks, little by little. At this moment, she didn't even have the strength to question, she just glared at him fiercely.

Zhan Tingyu's anger surged, and she was on the verge of exploding, forcing her back back violently, and Zi Xi's back hit the handrail of the stairs.

But he didn't give up, he pressed over again, and stared at her eyes fiercely, "Tell me, who helped you check all this? It's Tan Qing, huh? When did you get entangled?"

Zixi's tears flowed silently, but the corners of his mouth hooked up an extremely mocking smile, "Zhan Tingyu, you did something wrong yourself, and you blame others." You're disgusting!"

The force on her wrist increased so hard that her bones were about to be crushed.

Zhan Tingyu's forehead was bruised, his fingers buckled red marks on her cheeks, and his voice roared like a manic beast: "Say it again!"

Zi Xi looked directly into his eyes and repeated word by word, "You, true, special, what, of, evil, heart!"

In the next second, there was a crisp click at the wrist, and the pain was like a bone-chilling pain, and Zi bit his lip desperately, and his lips and teeth were quickly filled with fishy sweet blood. She almost fainted in pain, and her eyes were blackened.

"Good, good!"

In a blurred vision, Zhan Tingyu threw her to the ground and began to tear her clothes.

Zixi wanted to shout, but her voice seemed to be blocked in her throat, and before she could react, there was a tearing pain under her body......

The lights and shadows are heavy, and Zi Xi feels like he has died once, and the bones in his body are split.

The wounds on her body were worse than ever, and they were more severe than every time before.

It's okay to die like that......

Late at night.

The rain was pouring down outside the window, and the room was dark, and not a single light was turned on.

There was a soft sound at the door, and a white shadow walked in, standing at the entrance, looking at the man who was drinking in the living room, but he didn't dare to come in.

The room was filled with the pungent smell of alcohol.

Zhan Tingyu suddenly raised his eyes, shot at the white shadow in the darkness, raised his hand and said, "You, come here." ”

The white shadow crept closer.

Zhan Tingyu suddenly raised her hand, and a wine bottle smashed towards her.

"Ahh

Luckily, she was able to dodge quickly, and the bottle flew past her face, falling to the ground and shattering.

She looked at the man on the sofa in shock, "Sister...... Brother-in-law ......"

Another bottle smashed over.

Gu Ruo didn't have such good luck this time, his forehead was hit by a wine bottle and he fell to the ground.

"Brother-in-law......" she cried out, "what happened to your sister?"

Zhan Tingyu sneered, leaned over slightly, propped his elbows on his knees, and grabbed her throat with his fingers, "Say, who did you go to see in the afternoon?"

The hand in the neck was not gentle, it was tightening its strength little by little, and its breath was being snatched away little by little.

Gu Ruo immediately realized what he wanted to do, she subconsciously raised her hand and grabbed his wrist, "Brother-in-law, I said, I said everything." ”

Her eyes were full of horror, and she looked at the man's gloomy handsome face, and she was also full of admiration.

This man, she took a fancy to it from the first time she saw him. No one wants to rob her!

Perhaps it was her fear and admiration that satisfied Zhan Tingyu's irritable heart, and he let go of her," he said. ”

Gu Ruo was still kneeling there, and told me everything about this afternoon, "I'm afraid that my sister won't take me in, so I ...... Brother-in-law, I know it's my sister this time, although that Mr. Tan is also very good, but compared to you, it can't be compared. ”

"You say, Tan Qing is excellent?" Zhan Tingyu asked sympathetically.

"Nope. Gu Ruo looked into his eyes and was very sure, "In my eyes, there is no better man in this world than my brother-in-law." If I were my sister, I would definitely love my brother-in-law wholeheartedly and never change my mind for the rest of my life. ”

Zhan Tingyu raised his eyebrows interestingly, "Really?"

"Eleven thousand. ”

After a while, Zhan Tingyu raised the corners of his mouth and pointed at Gu Ruodao: "You are fine, from today onwards, stay here." ”

Gu Ruo was ecstatic in her heart, but her face showed embarrassment, "But my sister ......"

"What are you afraid of?" Zhan Tingyu was drunk and misty, and pinched her chin, "I'm here." ”

Gu Ruo was stunned for a moment, and then a shy smile bloomed, "Thank you, brother-in-law." ”

The next day, the sun shone through the clouds.

Today is a good day, but the atmosphere in the villa is like a cold winter.

After Aunt Wu finished cooking, she saw Gu Ruo coming downstairs and couldn't help asking, "Miss Gu Ruo, please call Miss Gu downstairs for breakfast." ”
