......

The Li family.

There was a soft click, and the door was pushed open.

A head poked out of the crack in the door.

Like a thief who has returned home but forgot to change his professional habits, Li Zhien carefully observed the environment inside the house.

She breathed a sigh of relief when she was sure that only the kitchen was sounding.

Lightly changing his shoes, Li Zhien came to the kitchen where the water was constantly roaring.

"Oh mom......," she called softly.

He Jingshu, who was scrubbing the dishes and chopsticks, was so frightened by her voice that her shoulders shook.

"Li Zhien, are you here to burglary?! I thought I had a ghost at home! He Jingshu was shocked, clutching her chest and not having a good airway.

Li Zhien smiled and stepped forward to hug He Jingshu's arm.

"You, don't give me a hippie smile here, delay me washing the dishes." He Jingshu glanced at her with "disgust".

"I haven't been home for more than a week," Li Zhien blinked, "Is this status at home now?" ”

He Jingshu rolled her eyes and commented simply, "There are many plays." ”

Although he was deflated, Li Zhien was not discouraged, "Oh Mom, is Zhong Xun at home now?" ”

"Jong Hoon? I guess I just came out of school. ”

"Oh,,,,,,"

"You really want to ask Jonghoon?" He Jingshu glanced at her.

"Uh......" Li Zhien blinked, and his voice weakened unconsciously, "oppa, he ......"

"What did you him off, didn't you?"

"I didn't ...... either Did he tell you? ”

"I didn't say it, but I will be asked once a day these days when you will come back, and I see your brother's expression every time......"

He Jingshu snorted, shook her head, and gave Li Zhien a look of self-help.

"Huh?"

Li Zhien's courage to go home was like a balloon that was blown up, and it was punctured by Ha Jingshu's words.

"Oh Mom, then I still won't eat at home tonight, I'll go back to the company."

"If you can hide for a while, you can't hide for a lifetime."

"Let's hide for a while."

Li Zhien let go of the hand holding He Jingshu and hurriedly went outside.

At the entrance of the door, she propped herself on the ground with one foot, held the shoe cabinet with the other, and staggered to change her shoes.

Click.

The door was pushed open from the outside.

One tall and one short, the two figures looked at each other silently.

"Brother, you're back......" Li Zhien tried to squeeze out a smile.

Gu Heng let out a "hmm", glanced at her, and asked,

"Is there still a lot of work to keep the company busy tonight?"

"Well, a little bit...... It's ok too......"

"Come to my room in a moment......"

Gu Heng paused, gave He Jingshu, who was paying attention to the situation here, a reassuring look, and walked across the entrance towards the upstairs, "I have something to tell you." ”

"Huh?"

Li Zhien and He Jingshu, who was standing at the door of the kitchen, glanced at each other, and their hearts were like ashes.

Rubbing and taking off the half-worn shoes again, Li Zhien walked to the door of Gu Heng's room three times under the eyes of his mother.

Taking a deep breath, she pushed open the hidden door in front of her.

There was no expected "sword mountain and sea of fire", Gu Heng in the room was sitting at the desk tapping on the keyboard.

"Oppa, I'm coming......"

"Well," Gu Heng turned his face to look at her, without any expression, "Come and sit." ”

"Okay."

Li Zhien carefully moved a stool and sat down next to Gu Heng.

"Zhi'en."

"Huh?" Li Zhien instantly concentrated.

After Cui Zhencheng told her that the matter was "revealed" a few days ago, she had rehearsed many times in her heart, but ......

"In your eyes, am I an emotionally casual person?"

"Ani, of course ......not," Li Zhien waved his hand in a panic and denied.

"The time I stay in Seoul is only about a month and a half, and there are still a lot of things to deal with," Gu Heng closed the notebook and turned his face to look directly at Li Zhien, who was bowing his head, "I don't have the time and energy to devote to other aspects." ”

"I see......"

"As for Yuna's matter, first of all, I apologize to you, I have known her for a long time, and it was my fault that I didn't make it clear to you when I was in high school."

"But Zhi'en...... You look up at me. ”

Gu Heng's tone was serious.

"Neither your uncle nor my aunt nor I have taught you that you can indiscriminately affect and disturb others because of some of your own thoughts and speculations, right?"

Li Zhien was speechless.

Gu Heng's heart softened slightly, but he still insisted on his expression and continued.

"Yes, Yun'er didn't care about this time, and advised me not to be angry, but not everyone who has nothing to do with us will forgive you for your willfulness, do you understand?"

"You like to be a singer and a star, I respect you, but your circle is complicated, even if I want to protect you, at least now, it is difficult to reach the whip, so I can only hope that we can be more intelligent in dealing with the world, and don't think about it."

"But your behavior this time really made me ......"

Gu Heng didn't say any more.

"I—I didn't think about it that much......"

Li Zhien actually prepared a lot of lines to deal with, but the unconcealable disappointment in the words of the man on the other side made her forget all of them.

After the aggrieved baba stumbled like this, her eyes were still red.

Seeing Li Zhien's pitiful appearance with his fingers twisted, Gu Heng sighed helplessly.

He knew it......

Holding Li Zhien's hand and rubbing her hair again, Gu Heng slowed down his tone as much as possible,

"I know you didn't think about it that much, and I know you want it for my own good, otherwise why would I be standing here and talking to you about this?"

"Really? You won't be mad at me in the future? Li Zhien sniffled.

"If you apologize to Lin Yun'er."

"Apologize?" Li Zhien's voice raised, but in the face of Gu Heng's eyes, her voice lowered again, and she muttered, "Apologize, apologize, who won't apologize......"

Gu Heng chuckled lightly and took out a piece of paper from the table and gave it to her, "Okay, I will be seen by Zhong Xun in a while, it's time to laugh at you." ”

Li Zhien took the tissue and sorted out his emotions for a while.

"Aren't you sad?" Gu Heng asked her with a smile.

"I'm not sad!"

Li Zhien looked away, trying to completely deny his embarrassing performance just now.

But suddenly thinking of something, she suddenly turned her face back again, stared at Gu Heng and said angrily,

"You murdered me just now because of her!"

"Where did I kill you?"

"That's it!"

Li Zhien strained his face to imitate Gu Heng's expression just now, and his mouth was broken,

"There was no expression at all, and the tone was like that of a judge on the judgment seat, which was even more terrifying than before Abba scolded me."

"You've never murdered me before, you've changed, you've really changed......"
