Chapter 87

"That'...... All right. ”

Gu Yanxi couldn't find any way to alleviate this hazy and vague relationship, and Li Chen's uncertain mood made her even more sad.

It is getting closer and closer to Gu Yanxi's father, Gu Tianhua, who is released from prison, and she also knows that the arrival of this day also means that she has to make a decision with Li Chen.

"Yanxi, the day after tomorrow, my father will accompany you when he is released from prison." Li Chen got off work and walked into the studio at home with exhaustion, and said to Gu Yanxi, who was bored with his head drawn the design draft.

“…… Good. Gu Yanxi put down the pen in his hand and turned his head to look at Li Chen's eyes.

The emotions in his eyes were bright and dark, and the sourness in Gu Yanxi's heart rippled.

"Then I'll go and ask the school for leave, and I'll have to pack my bags later...... What else is coming......" Gu Yanxi sorted out the design draft on the table in a panic, and she didn't know what she was nervous about.

"Yanxi, it's okay, and me." Li Chen took Gu Yanxi's hand, took her into his arms, and forcibly made Gu Yanxi look into his eyes.

Gu Yanxi naturally knew what Li Chen was talking about, although neither of them made it clear.

"I'll go to the school and say, the luggage is also sorted out, you can accompany me to eat something." Li Chen touched the top of Gu Yanxi's hair dotingly, as if giving her strength to believe that this relationship can be accepted by her family.

"Okay." Gu Yanxi nodded dumbly and let Li Chen pull her hand downstairs.

The kitchen quickly had the best food, three dishes and one soup, Gu Yanxi was not too hungry after eating at night, he only filled a bowl of soup and sipped one bite at a time, and his thoughts drifted a little far.

Li Chen observed Gu Yanxi's every move while eating.

"Is there anything you want to bring back with you when you're going back to China?"

Li Chen's voice was particularly clear in the silence, and Gu Yanxi raised his head violently to meet the pair of eyes that had no temperature.

Take it back?

Why does it sound like you want to drive her away?

"I'll just bring some clothes and daily necessities."

"Hmm." Li Chen nodded, seeing that Gu Yanxi was not very interested, he did not continue the topic.

The night always comes quietly, and Gu Yanxi's stomach is a little stretchy after drinking a bowl of soup, and he doesn't feel sleepy. I kept repeating the picture of the recent relationship with Li Chen in my mind, as if there was nothing worth recalling.

There are no key memorable objects left here that belong to two people.

Li Chen on his side had already fallen asleep, and Gu Yanxi looked at his side face with an inexplicable sense of loss in his heart.

Maybe the day after tomorrow, Gu Yanxi will leave this position forever, and no longer have any identity to stay by Li Chen's side.

She knows very well that this relationship may not be recognized by her family.

The most regrettable thing in life is that I easily gave up what I shouldn't give up and stubbornly insisted on what I shouldn't have.

There is no joy when it is time to laugh, no tears when it is time to cry, and no promise when it is time to believe.

The next morning, Li Chen left home early to go to work in the company, after all, he will return to China tomorrow, and many things need to be arranged in advance.

After Gu Yanxi woke up, he chatted with Chen Shiyi for a while and told her the next itinerary.

Gu Yanxi: Shi Yi, I will return to China tomorrow, and it is estimated that I will not be able to go to school for a while, you have to remember to miss me~

Chen Shiyi: How long will it take? What about your design competition?

Gu Yanxi: I have to settle my dad first, by the way...... Go back and see my mother, if it's fast, it's a week, if it's slow, it's half a month.

Gu Yanxi: It's still too late for the competition, my draft is almost finished, just revise it before the competition.

Chen Shiyi: Oh, then you have to take care of yourself, will Li Chen accompany you?

Gu Yanxi: Well, he's also with him.

Chen Shiyi: That's good.

Gu Yanxi chatted with Chen Shiyi for a while and then went downstairs, Aunt Zhang put the food on the table, and when she saw Gu Yanxi coming down, she walked over and grabbed her hand.

Aunt Zhang saw that Gu Yanxi's face was not very good, and she was pale with some tiredness, "What's wrong Yanxi?" The complexion is so bad, sit down, I just made you soup, you can taste it. ”

Gu Yanxi held Aunt Zhang's hand back, smiled and comforted her, "It's okay, I may not have slept well last night." ”

Gu Yanxi walked to the dining table and sat down, and the aroma on her face drove away all her boredom in the morning.

"It smells so good." Gu Yanxi held the soup bowl and blew the hot air, picked up the soup spoon and scooped a small sip and drank it, the sweet and delicious taste burst out in his mouth.

"If you like to drink it, I'll make it for you often in the future." Aunt Zhang looked at Gu Yanxi dotingly and smiled, she really loved this girl from the bottom of her heart.

Gu Yanxi's smile slowly faded after hearing Aunt Zhang's words, and his eyes were full of disappointment.

"What's wrong, Yanxi?" Aunt Zhang noticed that something was wrong with Gu Yanxi, and hurriedly asked.

“…… Aha, nothing...... It's just ......" Gu Yanxi didn't know what to say, if the people in the family really didn't agree, maybe she wouldn't come back here, which meant that she would never see Aunt Zhang again. "Aren't you going back to China tomorrow......"

"Oops! It's not like you're not coming back, it's really ......" Aunt Zhang didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but she stopped halfway through speaking, and her eyes looked at Gu Yanxi a little incredulous.

"Yanxi, you really won't come back, will you?"

"Maybe." Gu Yanxi answered Aunt Zhang's question with a smile, but forgot to hide the tears that gradually moistened his eyes, and a sour tear fell into the soup bowl, causing ripples.

"Why? Mr...... He's not going to leave you over there. Aunt Zhang still doesn't believe that Li Chen will do this, obviously the two of them are doing well, their studies are going well, and there are no problems getting along recently.

"Aunt Zhang, we don't have much confidence in this relationship, and it's just a try, and my parents may not agree to it......"

"It's good that you are firm, and don't care too much about other people's eyes."

"But that's my parents after all, and as for the two of us, I haven't planned to tell them yet, I want to hide it."

"Sir won't agree."

"I'll discuss it with him, don't worry, Aunt Zhang, let's eat together, otherwise I'll live up to your craftsmanship if it's cold!"

Gu Yanxi smiled very sweetly on the surface and comforted Aunt Zhang, but in fact, only she knew the bitterness in her heart.

After eating, Gu Yanxi returned to the room to pack her luggage, but found that although she was only going back temporarily, her luggage was only a little bit, and a few sets of clothes and cosmetics were all her things.

There is a feeling that you will return to your home country with these few bags and never come back.

Although the company is busy today, Li Chen still rushes to go home early.

"There's an important signing ceremony in a week, and you have to be there in person, so don't waste too much time in the country." Xie Yu sorted out the documents that Li Chen had already reviewed on the desk, and said to Li Chen, who was rubbing his swollen eyes.

"yes, I know." Li Chen replied in a low voice.

"What are you going to do when you go back this time?"

"What are you going to do?" Li Chen raised his eyes to look at Xie Yu, who was sitting opposite him with a serious face.

"Your relationship with Gu Yanxi, is it public?"

"Of course." Li Chen replied without thinking.

Li Chen never thought of hiding Gu Yanxi's family, although he might have to face bloody opposition.

"You have to think about it, Gu Yanxi has to face more than you, don't ruin her on impulse." Xie Yu frowned, as a bystander, he was calmer and more rational than anyone else.

"I'm measured. I'll go first, and the company has worked hard for you during this time. Li Chen got up and walked to Xie Yu's side, patted him on the shoulder, took his coat and strode away from the company.

On the way home, Li Chen's mind kept echoing Xie Yu's words, and his words were not unreasonable.

When I got home, there was no Gu Yanxi in the living room, and the servants were doing their own thing.

Li Chen went straight upstairs, pushed open the door of the room, and found Gu Yanxi sitting on the ground looking at the suitcase in a daze.

"How do you sit on the ground, get up, it's cold on the ground." Li Chen threw the coat in his hand onto the sofa next to him, squatted down and helped Gu Yanxi up to let her sit on the edge of the bed.

"Ah, I was just packing." Gu Yanxi was a little confused, and he didn't react to how Li Chen would go home in the afternoon.

"I don't know how to wear socks, my feet are cold." Li Chen lifted Gu Yanxi's legs, put the little feet that were a little icy on his legs, and covered her feet with warm big hands.

The sudden intimacy made Gu Yanxi a little shy, and she wanted to pull her foot back, but she had no choice but to hold her ankle when her strength was greater than hers.

"Why did you come back so early?" Gu Yanxi glanced at the clock on the wall, turned his head and asked.

"I took care of some anxious work, and I flew tomorrow and didn't want to spend all my time at work." Li Chen put Gu Yanxi's little feet, which were not too hot, into his clothes, and the cold soles of his feet were attached to Li Chen's stomach, which was very warm, and he could feel the texture of his abdominal muscles shallowly.

Gu Yanxi nodded carelessly, and her cute toes moved unconsciously, making Li Chen's stomach a little itchy.

"Be nice, don't move." Li Chen pretended to be angry and glared at Gu Yanxi, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth never decreased.

"Huh? What the? Gu Yanxi opened a pair of innocent big eyes and looked at Li Chen with a wink, obviously he was sitting here obediently and didn't move.

"Be obedient with your toes, and I'll beat your ass if you move again!"

"Oh, oh, I'm sorry......" Gu Yanxi shrunk his neck after hearing this, and pressed his toes together and didn't dare to move.

"Silly ......" Li Chen chuckled and shook his head helplessly and dotingly.

The atmosphere at the moment is very quiet, and neither of them has broken this blandness, quietly enjoying the time that belongs to the two.

"That...... Li Chen, I want to discuss something with you. ”

After a while, Gu Yanxi broke the silence.

"What?"

"Don't tell Dad we're together, okay? After all, his sister was only ...... when he was first imprisoned I'm afraid he won't be able to accept it. ”

Gu Yanxi hung his head slightly, not daring to look directly into Li Chen's eyes.

"......" Li Chen lowered his eyes, covering up the darkness under his eyes.

"Well, I'll talk about it later."
