Huo Jinye stood in place, looking at her with a somewhat complicated and inquiring look: Was she on a whim? Or after weighing the pros and cons, she still wants the Huo family to protect her and the child?

"Brother Ye, what are you looking at me like this?" Gu Xuecen stood on tiptoe and suddenly leaned over, as if he had discovered a new continent, "Hey, your pupils look better than when you were young, like the priceless and unique gem in the previous auction." ”

Huo Jinye was caught off guard by the little girl's rose fragrance.

He habitually pinched his palm, feeling a familiar, reassuring pain.

It's not a dream, it's not a day or night.

Gu Xuecen was really talking to him, and took the initiative to approach him.

"Don't get so close to me."

Huo Jinye spoke coldly.

He will be greedy, he will give birth to greed that he should not have, and he will get out of control.

will become the demon that engulfs her.

"Oh, okay," Gu Xuecen pulled away with some loss, and in the blink of an eye, she turned into that happy little girl again, "Brother Ye, I really praised you just now, not perfunctory." ”

"Brother Ye......"

Gu Xuecen turned around briskly, but suddenly lost his words.

She stared at the familiar face that disappeared around the corner, her mind full of the smell of disinfectant water and the doctor's merciless sentence that her eldest brother could never stand up again, as well as the heart-rending at the prison gate and the corner of the hospital gown that she had only had time to grab when she reached out and grabbed it......

The pictures she deliberately forgot but couldn't forget, like gluttony that had just been unsealed, pounced on her with teeth and claws, wanting to tear her apart and engulf her.

Deng Xinyu......

Gu Xuecen trembled unconsciously, her legs seemed to have lost the control of her brain, and she used the most direct body language to express the fear in her heart.

Huo Jinye noticed that the little girl who was happy like a lark just now seemed to have hit a ghost, looked at the corner in horror, tears flowed silently, and her trembling body was so helpless.

He didn't find any familiar people around the corner.

What the hell is wrong with this girl?

"Gu Xuecen, look at me," Huo Jinye didn't care about anything else, he held Gu Xuecen's face, stared deeply into her eyes, stretched out his thumb, and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Don't be afraid, it's okay." ”

The little girl's face was so small that he could cover it with one hand.

"We won't eat, I'll send you back."

Huo Jinye bent down and picked her up out of the commercial center and carefully put her in the back seat.

Gu Xuecen seemed to have come back to her senses at this time, she looked at the silhouette in front of her with tears in front of her for three years, and her tears fell even more fiercely.

"Huo Jinye ......"

Gu Xuecen threw herself into his arms and cried bitterly.

"I'm so scared ......"

She hugged the man's waist and abdomen tightly, buried in his neck socket, and vented her emotions wantonly.

"What if I'm dreaming......"

Is that everything now her dream?

In fact, she was already dead.

All the people she cared about didn't really exist.

She was so afraid that she would not have time to prevent all the tragedies, and she was so afraid that no matter how hard she tried, the Chen family would still get rid of the other three, and the people she knew, was close to, and cared about would still die.

"I'm really scared, I don't want to go back to that cold place......"

She spoke incoherently, and Huo Jinye's heart was full of doubts. The little peacock in memory has always been arrogant, when has he ever been so timid and crying.

"Gu Xuecen, stop crying."

Huo Jinye felt the coolness on his shirt, and said seriously and firmly: "No one can bully you." ”

He won't allow it.

He spoke again: "It's not early, I'll send you home." ”

Back at the Gu family, his little girl wouldn't be so sad.

Gu Xuecen nodded while crying. Along the way, she was crying quietly as if she wanted to vent all the grievances and sorrows in her previous life, I don't know how long she cried, she finally quieted down, leaned her head against the window, looked at the scenery flashing outside the window, and didn't know what she was thinking.

It wasn't until he arrived at the door of Gu's house that Huo Jinye got out of the car and opened the door.

"Gu Xuecen, you can go home."

The little girl who heard the voice came back to her senses, she stretched out her little hand, grabbed the back of his hand, looked up at Huo Jinye with red eyes and nose, and whispered:

"Brother Ye, can I still go to you often in the future? Can you stop going on a blind date......"

Because she had just cried, the little girl was still crying when she spoke, looking at Huo Jinye pitifully, no matter who was reluctant to say no to such a harmless and perfect face.

"Let's go inside."

Huo Jinye said softly.

"That'...... See you tomorrow, Brother Ye, and I'll go back to you. ”

Before he could say anything, Gu Xuecen had already turned around and entered the Gu family.

Huo Jinye kept looking at her back, until he saw her enter the gate of the Gu family, and then turned around to leave.

Half an hour later, the Rose Garden.

Uncle Wang looked down at the news handed over by his subordinates, his expression solemn and tangled.

In the end, he still knocked on Huo Jinye's door: "Young master, they have found out all the things you asked them to check." ”

"Bring it."

Huo Jinye's eyes moved away from the computer, he took the USB flash drive and plugged it into the computer, and soon saw the answer he wanted to see.

On Gu Xuecen's birthday, at the Imperial Capital International Hotel, Gu Xuecen and Chen Yuan stumbled into the hotel. Her smile is so shy and beautiful, you can see at a glance that she is a little woman in love.

There was no trace of others entering the hotel during several important periods, and it was not until more than nine o'clock in the morning that Chen Yu'an smiled and said something to Gu Xuecen and left.

His eyes suddenly froze, as if he wanted to see through the screen, and his arm holding the mouse tightened unconsciously, and the green tendons bulged on it, revealing his true thoughts at the moment.

It's ridiculous.

Gu Xuecen said that the child was his, and he actually had a delusion in his heart and asked someone to investigate.

He had clearly woken up from his rose garden that morning, and he was still expecting something.

Uncle Wang looked at his expression, very distressed, and said with relief: "Young master, Miss Gu is only young at the moment, so she can't know people clearly. She doesn't really hate you anymore, if she knew that the sixteen-year-old was a misunderstanding, and you saved her, she would definitely change her attitude towards you, maybe ......"

"Uncle Wang, I've been dreaming for so many years, it's time to wake up. How could a princess like a demon? Huo Jinye let out a desolate laugh from the depths of his throat, like a weathered old man.

"Besides, I don't think about that."

"Young Master......"

Huo Jinye got up abruptly and left the study directly, his back disappearing at the end of the dark corridor, as if he wanted to merge with this lonely and cold night.
