Inside the bar, there is still a lot of hustle and bustle, enthusiastic men and women writhing on the dance floor, the band on stage playing the most powerful songs, the guitarist playing the last note, and the atmosphere of the whole bar is baked to the climax.

Gu Xiu stood by the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor, looking at the bustle downstairs, only a small part of the harsh music passed through the glass, Gu Xiu held a bottle of beer in his hand, and looked at the guests on the dance floor with interest.

I don't know how Xu Ruo handled it, and whether Zhong Qing was bullied by the Gu family. Gu Xiu, who originally received the news, wanted to go over to help Zhong Qing in person, but thinking of his current identity, going would only cause trouble to Zhong Qing, and after thinking about it, he still dialed Xu Ruo's phone.

After all, Xu Ruo is a member of the four major families, and it is better for him to help Zhong Qing than for Zhong Qing to deal with that scene alone, right?

"Dangdang." There was a knock on the door of the room, and Wei Lan walked in:

"Second master, Miss Zhong wants to see you."

Gu Xiu's drinking action paused, he turned his back to the door, waved his hand and said, "I don't see." ”

Zhong Qing silently walked into the room from Wei Lan's side, and Wei Lan had no choice but to say, "That...... She's already here. ”

Gu Xiu sighed and turned around helplessly. Wei Lan wisely left the room, leaving time for the two of them.

Gu Xiu sat on the boss's chair, casually put his legs on the table, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and shrugged his shoulders casually.

"Miss Zhong, you are really free today, last time I said that people from your four major families were forbidden to come to Tianqi, why are you ......?"

Zhong Qing interrupted Gu Xiu's words and said directly, "Why do you want to help me?" ”

The smile on the corner of Gu Xiu's mouth remained unchanged: "What? ”

"It was you who called Xu Ruo and asked him to help me, right?" Zhong Qing took a deep breath, trying to make her voice as natural as possible, and she said, "Gu Xiu, why are you doing this!" ”

"It's just a gesture, don't be too grateful to me." Gu Xiu looked at Zhong Qing with a smile, deliberately whistled, and said, "Of course, if you have to thank you, I don't mind other thank-you gifts other than money...... You know. ”

Originally, she wanted to scare Zhong Qing away with these words, but Zhong Qing, who had already seen through Gu Xiu, was not frightened at all, she lowered her head and did not speak, as if she was really thinking about what Gu Xiu said.

Gu Xiu couldn't stand such an embarrassing silence, just being in the same room with Zhong Qing made him feel dry-mouthed, in the face of a woman he liked, it was already rare for him to be able to hold back and not do it, how could he contact her like before.

Gu Xiu wanted to find an excuse to leave the room, but when he passed by Zhong Qing, the latter suddenly reached out and grabbed Gu Xiu's sleeve.

It is undeniable that Gu Xiu's heart beat violently, Zhong Qing's every move is holding his heart, Gu Xiu doesn't dare to look back now, he doesn't know how to face Zhong Qing.

It's so ridiculous, what kind of woman Gu Xiu hasn't seen since he took over Tianqi Bar? There are dozens of women who have changed around him, not to mention hundreds, and Gu Xiu originally thought that he was very good at talking to women, because just his face could already make many people pounce.

"Gu Xiu." Zhong Qing's voice sounded behind her, and she said, "Thank you." ”

Gu Xiu swallowed his saliva very impatiently again, he felt that he was about to explode nervously now, damn it, isn't this too embarrassing?

"Miss Zhong, I have received your feelings, you better go back first."

Zhong Qing didn't let go of his hand, Gu Xiu even felt her fingertips tremble a little, he turned to look at Zhong Qing, and unexpectedly saw Zhong Qing's eyes red, as if he was about to cry.

"Gu Xiu, don't be so nice to me!" Zhong Qing suddenly said excitedly: "You have helped me many times, I, I really don't know how to repay your favor, Gu Xiu, you ......"

Gu Xiu looked at Zhong Qing, whose body was trembling slightly, and knew that she was very emotionally unstable now, maybe she had been stimulated before and had nowhere to vent, so it was understandable to come here to find herself.

Gu Xiu sighed and said, "You know why I helped you, Zhong Qing, I said I liked you." ”

Zhong Qing looked at Gu Xiu blankly, reason and madness tore at Gu Xiu's nerves, he had to endure not to look at her so that he wouldn't do something excessive.

"Gu Xiu, I'm not worthy of your liking." Zhong Qing lowered her head and said sullenly, "I have made it very clear before, Gu Xiu, I don't like you." ”

"I know." Gu Xiu said: "Zhong Qing, you can continue to dislike me, but you can't stop me from being nice to you." ”

Gu Xiu's affection made Zhong Qing at a loss, her heart was beating violently, and she actually had the urge to hug Gu Xiu desperately, she gritted her teeth and endured that impulse, and attributed that impulse to moving.

Zhong Qing thought that after dying once, she had nothing to fear, whether it was Zhong Nian's calculation or Gu Zihan's entanglement, even if the company people excluded and discriminated against her, they couldn't defeat her Zhong Qing, only Gu Xiu's gentleness could make Zhong Qing lose his troops and unload his armor with just a little bit.

Zhong Qing saw through Gu Xiu's cynical appearance, hiding a kind and gentle heart; Gu Xiu also saw through Zhong Qing's softness and fragility in her heart under the strong disguise.

The two lonely hearts are slowly approaching in the dark, Zhong Qing always feels that he will not like Gu Xiu, but every time he sees his heartbeat, how can he explain it?

Zhong Qing looked at Gu Xiu's face, he couldn't hide his handsomeness even in the dim light, after the death of his mother in his childhood, Zhong Qing didn't seem to feel this sense of security for a long time.

But this sense of security is also a kind of uneasiness for Zhong Qing, and now more than three months have passed since she was reborn, and many things have developed completely differently than before. She didn't know what her future would look like, let alone what tricks Zhong Nian and Gu Zihan would use against her.

"Why can't you understand what I'm saying! Gu Xiu, if you help me a few times, Gu Zihan will target you many times! Do you know that if you help me, you're hurting yourself! Zhong Qing tugged at Gu Xiu's collar excitedly and said, "You can't help me!" You're only going to make yourself like me! Gu Xiu, I beg you, don't worry about me anymore! ”

"Whoever bullies you, he is my enemy, my life is already like this now, are you afraid of getting worse?" Gu Xiu's smile made Zhong Qing shudder.

"Zhong Qing, you don't have to be so strong, no matter when, I'm here, you know?"

Gu Xiu's words hit Zhong Qing's death hole, thinking of what happened before, Zhong Nian's frame-up, his father's distrust, Gu Zihan's step-by-step pressing, and the company's colleagues targeted him three times and twice, Zhong Qing faced that group of people alone, and it was really difficult for Zhong Qing to move forward.

She thought that she could be strong enough to face all the difficulties alone, but when Gu Xiu said such a thing, she couldn't control the tears that were about to burst the embankment, and hid her face and cried bitterly.

Gu Xiu said: "People all over the world don't believe in you, I believe in you." ”

Gu Xiu said: "Zhong Qing, do whatever you want, even if others don't support you, I will support you." ”

Gu Xiu also said: "Zhong Qing, I know you don't like me, even as your friend, I want to support you and protect you." ”

Zhong Qing squatted on the ground, crying happily for the grievances she had suffered these days, Gu Xiu also squatted down and patted her head gently, just like when Zhong Qing's mother comforted her when she was a child, Gu Xiu was also telling Zhong Qing in the same way: Everything will pass, and he will always be on her side.

Even if he gives everything he has, even if he can't turn back, even if he is the enemy of the four major families, Gu Xiu doesn't care, Zhong Qing's tears are his weakness, seeing this woman who is as dangerous as a rose thorn in front of outsiders, and now crying helplessly, Gu Xiu's heart is about to break.

With such a Zhong Qing, how could Gu Xiu not care?

"Don't cry." Gu Xiu comforted: "Zhong Qing, don't forget what you have to do. ”

With tears in the corners of Zhong Qing's eyes, she raised her head and looked at Gu Xiu blankly, as if only in front of Gu Xiu could Zhong Qing completely relax.

"Aren't you going to open your own design studio?" Gu Xiudao: "Do whatever you want, I said I would support you unconditionally, I will speak my word." ”

Zhong Qing looked at Gu Xiu's face, suddenly raised his head, and kissed Gu Xiu's lips, the latter's pupils shook, felt the warm touch on his lips, and was stunned for a long time before reaching out and hugging Zhong Qing.

The unexpected kiss happened so naturally, the two people who were looking for light in the darkness slowly approached, like a wandering heart finally found a place of belonging, Zhong Qing didn't know what she was thinking, she just wanted to kiss Gu Xiu.

Outside the Tianqi bar, Xu Ruo's car slowly stopped, he looked at the lively scene of people coming and going at the door of the bar, he didn't get out of the car, he knew that Zhong Qing was inside, but he didn't dare to walk in.

Did Zhong Qing not even realize how much she believed in Gu Xiu? After hearing what she said, she actually got out of the car and went straight to the Tianqi Bar, which doesn't need to be explained, right?

Xu Ruo's heart was sour, he and Zhong Qing grew up together, if he lost to Gu Zihan, whom Zhong Qing liked since childhood, he would lose willingly, but Gu Xiu and Zhong Qing had only known each other for a few months, Zhong Qing cared so much about Gu Xiu, how could Xu Ruo not be sad?

"Dangdang." Xu Zhiyan knocked on Xu Ruo's door glass, and the latter came to his senses and opened the door to let Xu Zhiyan in.

"I went to look for Gu Xiu just now, and Wei Lan stopped me." Xu Zhiyan hung his head and said, "Now I see that you are also here, that is to say...... Gu Xiu is with Zhong Qing, right? ”

"Sister." Xu Ruo sighed and said, "You said that I insisted like this...... Is it worth it? ”

"It's worth it." Xu Zhiyan rubbed his cold hands and looked in the direction of Tianqi Bar: "There is nothing wrong with liking a person, not to mention that in my Xu Zhiyan's dictionary, I didn't give up these words lightly." ”
