Chapter 40: The atmosphere is awkward
"Gu Chengye!"
Lu Xingkong thought to himself that it was because of himself that Gu Chengye was injured.
Lu Xingkong stretched out his hand and wanted to touch Gu Chengye's arm.
"It's just a small injury, nothing to fuss about."
Gu Chengye said in a low voice, as if resisting the touch of the deer starry sky, and moved his arm back.
Since Gu Chengye said so, forget it.
Lu Xingkong's hand was still in mid-air, and she had to slowly withdraw her hand.
At this time, Xia Chuan grabbed Gu Chengye's arm and touched it gently.
At this time, Lu Xingkong felt that a bitter taste was slowly blooming in his heart for some reason.
"It's not heavy, but after all, it leaves a wound, so it's better to bandage it well."
"Xia Chuan, you are exaggerating, it's just a small injury, just put a band-aid."
"Hey, what are you talking about, your arm is hurting, and it won't work well."
Although Xia Chuan's tone was quite gentle, there was a room for people not to resist.
Gu Chengye sighed and was at the mercy of Xia Chuan.
Lu Xingkong stood far away, silently looking at Xia Chuan and Gu Chengye.
You have to thank Gu Chengye, although Lu Xingkong thinks so, he can't insert it into the conversation between Xia Chuan and Gu Chengye.
Is it because Gu Chengye was injured, is she embarrassed to speak?
No, it's not like that.
It's something else that even Lu Xingkong himself doesn't understand......
Obviously, there was only a meter away from Gu Chengye, but it felt like they were tens of thousands of light years apart.
"It's swollen here, I'm going to find something to get you ice."
Xia Chuan said and left the office in a hurry.
At this moment, only Gu Chengye and Lu Xingkong were left in the huge office.
The two were alone, and Lu Xingkong had a lot of things to say, but he couldn't say a word for some reason.
She could only puff out her bun face and open her mouth slightly, but she just couldn't speak.
Finding the strange expression of the deer starry sky, Gu Chengye asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" Deer Starry Sky, do you have anything to say to me? ”
"Thank you."
Words of thanks, she finally spoke.
Lu Xingkong breathed a sigh of relief, and then solemnly bowed to Gu Chengye.
"Thank you so much for protecting me."
"What's the matter, it's the first time I've seen you so frank......"
"You hurt because of me...... If I hadn't angered those men in black by saying those things, you wouldn't have had to take this stab for me......"
"Looks like you know you're wrong, hot-blooded lawyer."
Gu Chengye's serious expression made Lu Xingkong unable to find words to refute, and he blamed himself even more.
Seeing Lu Xingkong with his head down and a look of self-blame, Gu Chengye sighed, stretched out his slender hand and rubbed Lu Xingkong's head.
Lu Xingkong raised her eyes to look at Gu Chengye, and she realized that Gu Chengye's ice eyes, which were always like thousands of years of ice, actually shone with a trace of gentle light.
"I'm just a little bit injured, you don't have to look like you're going to a funeral, do you...... If you want to take responsibility for my injuries, then treat me to dinner tomorrow. ”
Hearing Gu Chengye's words, Lu Xingkong was a little surprised.
However, then he immediately nodded: "...... Ah, okay, okay! ”
Lu Xingkong was a little apprehensive, but he still showed a sincere smile to Gu Chengye.
The corners of Gu Chengye's mouth slightly curled and responded to her smile.
Although Gu Chengye's smile was faint, it was the first time Lu Xingkong had seen him smile like that, and with that exquisite handsome face, his smile was so handsome and shining.
It would be nice if Gu Chengye could keep smiling like that all the time.
When Lu Xingkong was thinking like this, he found that Gu Chengye had regained his thousand-year-old cold expression.
