Chapter Sixty-Eight: I'm Sorry to You, Too

The car suddenly fell into an eerie silence, Xia Lichen looked at Gu Yan sluggishly, she was also frightened by the other party's crazy behavior just now.

"You should be tired too, Gu Yan...... But some things are in the past, and I'm sorry for my indifference to you, but I still don't regret it. ”

She smiled and spoke, but it seemed as if she was looking at herself many years ago.

Gu Yan still didn't react, only to see him holding the steering wheel and staring straight ahead.

"I want to wait for a trip to the mall, can you come with me?"

She resisted the pain in her heart, and instead proposed to him in a very light voice.

The car restarted again, but this time at normal speed.

The two were speechless, but when they arrived at the mall, Gu Yan took the initiative to help Xia Lichen open the car door, and he followed her to the front mall.

She smiled secretly in her heart, and did not refuse Gu Yan's follow.

"Take the opportunity and tell me what has happened around you in the past few years?"

It seemed that his spirit had been relaxed, and this kid was no longer as cold as usual, so Xia Lichen couldn't help but talk to him about homely things.

Gu Yan just smiled sarcastically.

"You told me not to always listen to my father's arrangements for everything, so I listened, but then when I told my father that I wanted to go to school outside and didn't want to stay at home."

"That's good! It's really not good to be in a closed environment for a long time, and the fact that you can muster up the courage to express your displeasure to your father is a testament to your growth. ”

It seems that the stone that has been hidden in her heart for many years suddenly fell, and at this moment she is sincerely happy for Gu Yan.

The boy is also the same as before, only where he is, the eyes of passers-by will unconsciously cast him, and he seems to have really become a shining angel in the crowd.

But then, he slowly lifted the clothes on his waist towards Xia Lichen, and on that white skin, there was a hideous scar.

"Yes, after that, I was given freedom and access to the outside world, but my father beat me up, and he even used a broken glass bottle...... Trying to kill me. ”

She never felt that she and Gu Yan would be like this moment, just like people from two worlds, looking at the scar in disbelief, and there was unstoppable heartache in her eyes.

"You are his son! He shouldn't have ...... He shouldn't have done that to you! ”

She re-covered the other party's clothes a little uncontrollably, and actually had a trace of remorse, remembering that Gu Jingrui had told her, she didn't know what she had taught Gu Yan, and now she thought about it.

"I'm sorry...... I'm sorry Gu Yan! I don't know if your father is such a person, is it because I was forced to advance something that angered him? ”

She clutched the other party's arm tightly, how much persecution and abuse this teenager still looked like a child in her eyes.

"It's not your fault, it's that he hates me, hates my existence, my origin, and the appearance I can't imagine with him, although he has also taken me to test my blood countless times."

He still has such a breezy expression, as if none of this has anything to do with him, and he is not the third son of the Gu family in the true sense.

Is it just for such reasons? Xia Lichen didn't understand and didn't want to understand.

At that moment, she cried, tears slowly sliding down her cheeks from the corners of her eyes.

"Don't cry, I don't care about any of this, because at least I really got what I wanted, but you, after so many years, can you tell me why you ruthlessly pushed me away from you?"

All the disguises fell apart in an instant, he may have changed a lot, but his feelings for Xia Lichen have not changed even after so long.

She understood that maybe there were some things that should not be concealed anymore, and she smiled and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hands, as if reminiscing and feeling relieved.

"At that time, I was in love, even though I have been together for two years since I met you, but my relationship is still surprisingly good, I really love him, sometimes I even think, even if I have nothing, I can't lose him, can you understand that feeling?"

The tears that had been wiped away were once again uncontrollably welling up in their eyes.

Gu Yan was a little stunned, it was the first time he had seen Xia Lichen in the face of these grief.

"But what does it have to do with him if you ignore me?"

"Because he was sick at that time, Gu Yan! I was born with congenital heart disease, and I thought the sky was going to fall, so I put all my energy on him, and I had some misunderstandings with your second brother before, so I thought, maybe we really shouldn't have any contact with each other. ”

She said in an apologetic tone, but Gu Yan's emotions were also very excited at this time.

"I don't know about you and my second brother at all, I just want to see you again, and it was he who said he could take me to see you, so I went with him."

It turns out that the second brother and her, what really happened?

"So what happened to your boyfriend in the end? Is he getting better? Still with you? ”

It seems that after finally removing the disguise, he is as desperate as he wants to know about her.

"He's dead......"

Xia Lichen replied with a smile with tears in his eyes.

But the grief in her eyes proved that she wasn't really laughing.

After getting such a result, Gu Yan didn't know what to say for a while, in other words, he was directly stiff and stunned in place.

"And do you know Gu Yan, in fact, I often recall the time when I went to your house to give you a lesson, because I was still happy at that time...... There is no sorrow, and there is no need to worry every day that he will leave me. ”

Once the sea was difficult to turn into water, perhaps it is the most appropriate to describe Xia Lichen's situation at this moment.

The boy hugged her tightly, and although he didn't know why he was doing this, such thoughts had been haunting him for a long time.

"I'm sorry to you, too...... When I first came to the company, I didn't have a good face for you, I didn't really hate you, I thought you hated me. ”

The boy's fragile voice came from overhead, and the moment he hugged her seemed to hug his whole world.

She actually didn't think that the other party was wrong, because Gu Yan was not the only one who had spoken seriously, she completely treated the other party as a little brother, and now it is the same.

Xia Lichen's mood was very difficult that day, probably because the misunderstanding between her and Gu Yan for many years was finally resolved, they went to the mall together and bought a lot of things, just like when she took Gu Yan out for the first time.

It's just that before parting, Gu Yan said that he was not ready this time, so he couldn't go to her house as a guest, and he was running to respect the other party's inner thoughts, so Xia Lichen was not reluctant.

"Also, when my eldest brother leaves the company, do you really plan to follow him?"

He was stubborn, but he still hadn't forgotten the reason why he suddenly lost control today, and there was some indescribable unwillingness in those blue eyes.

"You mean that when he is transferred out of this company, who did you hear from Gu Yan?"

"I heard it when I got off work that day, and at that time you thought the whole company was gone, but I didn't leave."

The other party's words also made Xia Lichen stunned.

Some time ago, she took the initiative to find Gu Yanrui, and she also knew that Gu Yanrui was about to be transferred to the head office, so she took the initiative to tell the other party her inner thoughts when she got off work.

But at that time, in the face of her wanting to resign, Gu Yanrui seemed to have already seen something, so she didn't say anything, but encouraged her to go to more places to sharpen and sharpen.

"Although I know that it is not very appropriate to ask you about Su Yarou, I also found out that it is true that since she was brought to the company by Jingrui, your state is not quite right."

This is what Gu Yanrui said to himself at that time, although he was a little surprised, Xia Lichen did not refute it, because what he said was true.

"And if you need it, you can continue to follow me when I return to the head office, although I can't give you any high positions at first, but I believe in your strength Li Chen."

can get such care from her boss, Xia Lichen said that she was unhappy, so she nodded, saying that she would reconsider this matter, but she didn't expect to be listened to by Gu Yan who was hiding in the shadows in the end.

Returning to reality again, looking at Gu Yan's incredibly beautiful face, she hesitated.

"I said I wanted to leave my job, not because of Gu Yanrui, nor because of your second brother, but sometimes, I really don't want to make myself too miserable unless necessary."

Let go of others and let go of yourself, Xia Lichen knows this best, she understands that some things are irreparable, and she can't make the person she hates disappear, so she chooses to leave by herself.

Regarding her and Su Yarou, she didn't plan to tell Gu Yan.

Gu Yan nodded after hearing this, but he was still reluctant to look at Xia Lichen's seriousness.

"Ann, la, a! Anyway, we'll still see each other every day, won't we? Even if I'm not in the company one day, you can come to my house often, my brother and my friend, in fact, have been thinking about you since I met you that year. ”

She said to the other party with a smile, realizing that the relationship between the two seemed to have really been restored, and the young man's face finally showed a relieved smile.

After that, in the company, Xia Lichen still did his job step by step, so he cleared up the previous misunderstanding with Gu Yan, so Gu Yan was no longer indifferent to her, and she was also very attentive to her work.

It's just that his relationship with Su Yarou is a lot more estranged, and he basically goes to Xia Lichen's office whenever he has free time.

"What kind of means did you use, Xia Lichen, a few days ago, I saw Gu Yan ignore you all day, but now it's back to when he was the original!"

"At that time, he was not a child at the age of fifteen."
