Chapter 72: The Cruel Truth

She lowered her head, hesitated for a moment, and held out her hand.

The document bag contained not much information, just five pages.

The wall clock on the wall ticked, and the sound of each step of the second hand was like her pounding heartbeat.

As her gaze moved downward, the flush from her red wine faded rapidly.

Her face had returned to a sickly pale, thin pages rustling between her trembling fingers.

It seems like a century has passed.

She slowly raised her head, her face was horribly white, and her dark and soft eyes were dim and frightening, as if it had been an extremely brilliant gem, but suddenly lost all its luster.

The corners of her lips twitched slightly, and her lips moved several times before she asked slowly in a hoarse voice, "Why, why did he do this." ”

She seemed to be asking Ye Shixuan, and she also seemed to be asking herself.

"The Gu family had a problem a long time ago, if Li Mofan didn't intervene, the Ye family would still have half the certainty to help the Gu family get through the sadness, but the power behind Li Mofan is huge, and he blocked it back then, even if our Ye family helps, not only can't we help, but we will also pay for ourselves."

Speaking of the events of the year, Ye Shixuan's expression was calm, and he didn't feel much guilty, "Nian Chen, people are selfish, and the Ye family promised to help the Gu family, but it was also necessary to be able to protect themselves." ”

After a pause, he said, "Li Mofan is determined to want the Gu family to die, and the Ye family can't help it." ”

Gu Nianchen's face was already extremely difficult to see.

She seemed to be on the verge of collapse, the corners of her eyes suddenly jumped, she bit her lip tightly, her hands were extremely tight, and the green tendons on the back of her hands were popping out.

Ye Shixuan had expected her reaction.

Accustomed to seeing the ups and downs of life and death in the mall, and seeing too much despair and pain, he thought that he had already trained an iron heart and would not be easily moved by anyone.

Looking at the tears gushing out of her eyes, looking at her unbelievable and painful expression, looking at her wanting to cry but holding back, and refusing to let go of the bloodstains on her lips that were bitten, he actually had a trace of pity.

He had no experience comforting women.

The women around him never needed him to comfort him.

It's just a high-level pet that you can change when you're tired of playing, and you can't afford to spend any effort on it.

He was silent for a few seconds, then handed out a light blue handkerchief, "If you want to cry, cry out, I just thought I should let you know the truth, I didn't want to make you so uncomfortable." ”

Gu Nianchen suddenly raised his head and looked at him, with a strong hatred in his eyes, "Young Master Ye, thank you for letting me know the truth, it's not too early, please send someone to send me back." ”

Ye Shixuan's outstretched hand slowly withdrew, with a little abnormal gaze in his eyes, put the handkerchief back in its place, nodded and said, "I'll let Yun Jie send you." ”

--------

"Miss, you're back." The moment the door was pushed open, Chen's mother quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and pressed the yellowed photo in her hand under the pillow.

Gu Nianchen walked in dejected.

She was like a wooden doll without a soul, with no sparkle in her eyes.

Chen's mother was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" The face is so ugly! ”

She had just recovered from her fever.

How to go out, my face is even more ugly than when I was sick with a fever.

Chen's mother walked up to her in a few steps, shook her hand, and was even more startled, "Oh my God, miss, why are your hands so cold." ”
