Chapter 20 Each has a ghost
Gu Xiaobei grabbed the corner of the quilt, and the whole person shrank into the quilt, as if Li Haonan wanted to take advantage of her, "Why are you here, Chen Shuang?" β
Li Haonan watched her movements, listened to her words, his eyes were like torches, and his face fell silent a little. Because Gu Xiaobei was lying in the quilt, his eyes had nowhere to look, so he could only look at Li Haonan.
This is the first time in so long that Gu Xiaobei has looked at Li Haonan so closely. Objectively speaking, this man is really good-looking, even if she doesn't fall in love with him. This man just sat here all night, with some stubble on his chin, his facial features were still clear and 'forced', and this person still had a kind of king-like arrogant momentum, every move can create a terrifying whirlpool, and those 'women' who are involuntarily involved in it are often completely buried.
If you look at it from a normal 'female' and 'sexual' perspective, this man is full of charm. Wu Chuang is also good-looking, but he and Li Haonan are two different types, such as using wine to describe them, Li Haonan is the old 'female' red, cold and deep, and the taste is long, while Wu Chuang is the 'color' bright 'bright' red wine, dazzling, sweet in the mouth.
Li Haonan may have been cured of Gu Xiaobei's illness, maybe he was tired from not sleeping all night, maybe he was hurt by Gu Xiaobei's words, anyway, he left with a calm face without saying a word.
Gu Xiaobei tossed all night, although the fever was subsided, people were still tired, Chen Shuang brought her breakfast, saw that she could eat something, and said angrily: "You are really good, yesterday you had a fever, my Uncle Li was the first to come, and you also bit someone, and they all bleed." Just like that, my Uncle Li is still here to watch over you all night. As a result, as soon as you opened your eyes in the morning, you didn't even say a word of thanks, and you drove them away! White-eyed wolf! β
Gu Xiaobei shrank on the 'bed' and drank porridge with a bowed head, glanced at Chen Shuang with his eyelids, and asked, "Have you asked for leave from school?" β
"No, I'm waiting to fire you!" Chen Shuang said angrily, "Gu Xiaobei, do you have a heart!" You got sick for Wu Chuang, but it turned out that my Uncle Li stayed by your side. Do you think it feels good for a man to see his favorite 'woman' scratching his heart and liver for other men? β
"I didn't let him suffer it! He came on his own! Besides, why did you call him yesterday? Why did you let him stay in front of my bed? You don't know what my attitude is towards him! What benefits did Li Haonan give you, you worked so hard for him and said good things for him? β
Gu Xiaobei's few words shocked Chen Shuang into a cold sweat, she didn't expect Gu Xiaobei, who was careless in the past, to be able to say these reasonable words all of a sudden. Chen Shuang was afraid that Gu Xiaobei would see the intricateness behind this, and she wondered if she and Uncle Li had 'forced' Gu Xiaobei too hard, which could easily make her suspicious and rebellious.
Chen Shuang carefully observed Gu Xiaobei's expression, and said cautiously: "Didn't I think that you could marry my Uncle Li, and from now on, won't I also follow the 'one person to attain the Tao' chicken and 'dog ascend to heaven'!" β
"I knew you didn't have a good heart, and you betrayed your friends to seek glory!" Gu Xiaobei finished drinking the porridge, pushed the bowl, and hummed the illness again, "Xiao Shuang, I'm dizzy, you put the bowl away!" β
"That's a bit of a thing!" Chen Shuang was so angry in his heart, he originally thought that Gu Xiaobei would suddenly be smart and clever, but he was afraid that he would count her down for a long time, and his bluff was very inward, which really hurt him to make a false alarm in vain.
Gu Xiaobei's illness, although it was not a serious illness, frightened the people around him, Li Haonan and everyone did not expect that Gu Xiaobei, who was so 'spirited' and strong, would be so sick. For the first time in so many years, Li Haonan regretted his ruthless way of doing things, and felt that his practice of arranging Wu Chuang's marriage was a little 'radical'.
Sister Hong stewed 'chicken' soup for Gu Xiaobei every day, Chen Shuang urged Gu Xiaobei to drink those sky-high nutritional products every day, and Li Haonan asked Liupinju to take turns to send porridge and pickles to Gu Xiaobei every day.
The porridge of Liupinju is boiled very well, it melts in the mouth, the mouth is full of fragrance, and the stomach is warm. In this city, the porridge of Liupinju is as rare as the bear's paw and phoenix liver made in the royal dining room in the past, and it can be said that it is difficult to find a bowl, let alone deliver it to the 'door' on time and on time every day.
Gu Xiaobei used the excuse of being sick these days, no matter how Chen Shuang tried to go out to play, she didn't go, except for going to school every day, she just stayed at home.
Although she lost her memory, she did not lose her intellect and the ability to think. Li Haonan treated her like this, she completely saw Li Haonan's intentions. She didn't want to think about whether Li Haonan loved him, but she couldn't accept Li Haonan as a person. And Li Haonan's world is not at all beyond the reach of ordinary people! In short, she and Li Haonan are definitely not all the way.
Because Gu Xiaobei couldn't come out of the closed 'door', Li Haonan was forced to visit the 'door'. Their circle of people began to gather in Chen Jiaqiang for three days and a big banquet for five days.
Gu Xiaobei really didn't want to see Li Haonan, but he was forced to attend a party like them out of etiquette. She knows that she is now under the fence, and she can't do things that are too willful and make her cousin and brother-in-law lose face.
Maybe they were afraid that Gu Xiaobei would see their ill intentions, and they would find an excuse for these gatherings every time, such as Sister Hong's birthday, Chen Jiaqiang's birthday, their wedding anniversary, and Chen Shuang's birthday...... Gu Xiaobei obviously remembered that he had just celebrated Chen Shuang's birthday last month, but they were stunned and said that it was on the solar calendar, and now it is on the lunar calendar.
On this day, their excuse was the anniversary of Sister Hong and Chen Jiaqiang's acquaintance, and there were many people in the house.
The hall was full of people coming and going, and it was a scene of singing and dancing. Sister Hong and Chen Jiaqiang were both happy, lest they were not enthusiastic enough, and they were not happy enough to be direct enough, so they laughed loudly and stretched out.
Gu Xiaobei lazily lay on the railing on the second floor, watching coldly, she didn't know how much benefit Li Haonan gave them, let them perform so actively and hard.
When everyone watched Li Haonan walk in with Xian Zhiming and Ruan Wenzheng, everyone greeted them and greeted them warmly.
Sometimes it's so strange, before she didn't face Li Haonan that day, she never found this man good-looking, and she never found that this man was amazing, even if Chen Shuang sang praises for Li Haonan in her ear countless times, she didn't realize it. However, since I opened my eyes and paid attention to him that morning, I found that Li Haonan's charm was invincible and ubiquitous.
Li Haonan, who stood in the center of the crowd, was undoubtedly the most 'colorful', as soon as he walked through the hall, he didn't need noble clothes and ornaments, he didn't need luxurious pomp, he himself could set off the whole audience with great momentum, like a high king waiting for everyone to meet. Although Gu Xiaobei didn't like Li Haonan, he couldn't deny that he was also in a trance the moment he saw him.
Gu Xiaobei tugged at the small dress on his body, knowing that he should go downstairs. Because as long as Li Haonan appears, even if he doesn't take the initiative to appear, someone will use countless naΓ―ve idiots to make him appear later.
She was tired of this kind of people trying their best to send her and Li Haonan into piles.
No one cared about her inner feelings, didn't understand her deep-seated fear of Li Haonan, everyone didn't flatter Li Haonan like they were not terrible, and betrayed themselves to make Li Haonan laugh.
But even though she knew all this, she couldn't help it. She has no home, no parents, no relatives, and even her best friend Chen Shuang is on Li Haonan's side! The only glimmer of light left in his life, Wu Chuang, is also married! Here, even if she is wronged, she has to endure it.
"Xiaobei, let's go, let's go downstairs!" Chen Shuang didn't know where to come out, so he took her hand and walked downstairs.
Gu Xiaobei took Chen Shuang's warm hand, she only has her now, for this pair of warm hands, even if she is helpless in her heart, she has to endure it!
As soon as they saw Gu Xiaobei and Chen Shuang going downstairs, everyone seemed to tacitly push Gu Xiaobei to Li Haonan's side. Gu Xiaobei knew that her strength alone was limited, so she could only sit beside Li Haonan in accordance with the will of the people, and let the strong manly aura on his body envelop her.
Gu Xiaobei sat next to Li Haonan, lowered her head, didn't speak, didn't laugh, didn't move, she knew that her small arms couldn't twist her big 'legs', but she also had a temper, she could be silent and indifferent to show resistance.
Everyone sent Gu Xiaobei to Li Haonan's side, and they wanted to leave in time. The sharp-minded Li Haonan had already sensed Gu Xiaobei's non-violent non-cooperation. He gave Wen Yimo a 'look', Wen Yimo immediately understood, shouted that he was hungry, organized a meal, and everyone sat down around a large round table.
Gu Xiaobei's mood was a little better when he saw the food, and he didn't listen to what everyone at the table said, just eating wholeheartedly.
Li Haonan, who was sitting next to her, occasionally gave her some dishes, but she was like being angry, and she didn't eat a bite of the dishes that Li Haonan put in the bowl. When Li Haonan saw her like this, he had no choice but to stop.
Chen Shuang sat on the other side of Gu Xiaobei, watching Gu Xiaobei take out this broken jar and die again, and faintly felt that something was going to be bad. In fact, from the last time I went to the villa, to Wu Chuang's marriage later, to the current Li Haonan's frequent visits, Chen Shuang felt that Li Haonan's actions were more urgent. But she was soft-spoken, and she really didn't dare to point fingers in front of Li Haonan.
"Xiaobei, let's have some wine too!" Chen Shuang knew that Gu Xiaobei's alcohol consumption was not good, and he wanted her to drink some, and people could become more easy-going.
Of course, Gu Xiaobei knew that he couldn't drink enough, and as soon as his eyes rolled, he wanted to simply borrow wine and pretend to be crazy, "Okay, let's drink some!" β
Li Haonan, who was sitting next to her, also knew that Gu Xiaobei couldn't drink well, but he didn't stop her, anyway, he was by her side, and it didn't matter if he drank too much, but he could take the opportunity to do something he thought about every day.
Everyone on the table had their own ghosts, those who poured wine poured wine, and those who persuaded wine persuaded to drink, and it was lively for a while. Sister Hong excused herself to be happy today, and after a few sips of wine, she also told a few meat jokes without concealment! It doesn't matter what she started with, Xian Zhiming and Ruan Wenzheng and others, who followed the trend below, began to talk one after another.
