Chapter 1915
In fact, there was nothing much to say. The only acquaintances who appeared in my life, apart from Gu Han, were Mo Fei Lin and Zuo Xicheng, and as for the stunningly wealthy man, I was still angry about last night and didn’t mention it to Mo Fei Lin.
Mo Fei Lin gave me a very comfortable sense of intimacy.
I got up and went to the kitchen to make dinner, “It’s not easy to meet, let’s have a casual dinner together.”
Mo Fei Lin didn’t refuse, “Of course, I won’t leave even if you kick me out.”
I smiled, feeling very affectionate at this lack of courtesy.
When I was almost in the kitchen, I vaguely heard Mo Fei Lin secretly instruct Zuo Xicheng to say a few words behind my back, but I didn’t hear exactly what was said.
It didn’t take long for Mo Fei Lin to come in to keep me company.
“Miss Mo, go sit outside and wait, you will be able to eat soon.”
Mo Fei Lin sighed helplessly, “I’m still more used to hearing you call me Fei Lin.”
“I’m sorry.” I apologised again.
“Never mind, let’s not dwell on that, I’ll help you along, it’s quicker.”
“You’re a guest, how’s that ……”
“Don’t be polite to me, I don’t treat myself as an outsider.”
……
With the maid and Mo Fei Lin helping out together, the meal was ready in less than half an hour.
Just as they were about to start eating, the sound of parking sounded outside.
Soon, Gu Han turned his car keys and walked in. Turning his head to see two more people in the dining room, he obviously took a step.
But in a flash, those puzzled emotions disappeared from his face and turned into a light smile.
Gu Han said as he walked over, “You didn’t inform me when you had guests at your door, you should have prepared some good dishes to serve.”
Rather, he sounded very hospitable as the head of the family.
“They came over on the spur of the moment too and didn’t have time to tell you.” I turned and ordered the maid to add a pair of dishes before adding, “Thought you weren’t coming back.”
Gu Han hooked his lips and didn’t answer.
He pulled out the chair next to me and sat down, “Introduce us, Xiao Shu.”
As he spoke, Gu Han’s hand rested on the back of the chair behind me, looking as intimate as if he was taking my entire body into his arms.
Was I too sensitive? It was a gesture that was more like a vow of sovereignty.
Although we used to be an unmarried couple, we had agreed to get along as friends before we were discharged from the hospital, and now we were just two old friends coming to the house, and Gu Han was acting so forcefully.
Was Gu Han always such an insecure person?
Thoughts let go for a moment before I introduced them one by one, “This is Mr. Zuo, whom I met at the restaurant before, and this is Mo Fei Lin.”
“Miss Mo, how do you do, I’m Gu Han.” Gu Han calmly extended his hand and shook Mo Fei Lin’s hand in a slapdash manner.
When Mo Fei Lin shook him, she deliberately pressed her wrist and grabbed Gu Han’s hand, “Mr. Gu, you haven’t seen me for a few years, don’t you recognize me so soon?”
“Do you know each other?” I asked.
Gu Han’s face paled, and without moving, he glanced at Zuo Xicheng next to him, although it was a very subtle transmission, I still saw it.
Zuo Xicheng picked up the hint and immediately got up and snorted, while moving his hands to separate their hands, while playing sloppy, “Both grew up in the capital, and are friends of Shen Shu, it’s normal to have had a passing acquaintance, it’s also normal to have a passing acquaintance, meeting is fate, let’s eat first, we’ll talk after eating, haha ……”
Mo Fei Lin’s hand was pulled away from him, impatient white glance, and turned away again, beautiful eyes staring at Gu Han, eyes very hostile, and seems to have some kind of concern, a look of desire to speak but not to stop.
Any normal person could see that the atmosphere between these two was not right, but it was just that no one had picked it out.
The meal passed in such a dark and subdued manner.
Chapter 1916
After dinner, Gu Han did not go straight upstairs, but accompanied me and the maid to clear the dishes together, acting as skillfully as an ordinary young couple.
I noticed that Mo Fei Lin was extremely unhappy about this.
These three people, they must be hiding something from me.
So after sitting and chatting for a while, I pretended to be drowsy and found an excuse to go upstairs, “Gu Han, take care of Miss Mo and Mr. Zuo for me, I’m sleepy from the medicine, so I’ll go upstairs to lie down for a while.”
“Go on.” Without thinking much about it, Gu Han got up and helped me to the stairway, watching me walk up to the first floor and disappear around the corner of the corridor.
Making sure I was out of sight from downstairs, I shifted against the wall and put my ear to the sound from downstairs, hearing Gu Han turn to go back to the living room and sit down before I padded over to the gable behind the log pillars, hiding myself and quietly observing what was going on downstairs.
Before Gu Han could sit down, Mo Fei Lin’s cold voice had already sounded, “We went to all the trouble of looking for Shen Shu all over the world, yet you hid her under the noses of the Shen and Mo families, Gu Han, should I say you’re clever, or should I say you’re bold and desperate?”
Gu Han still looked as indifferent as water and smiled from a good place, “That’s a compliment, thanks a lot.”
After spending so much time with him, this was the first time I had seen such a C*cky expression.
“When do you plan to tell Shen Shu the truth?” Mo Fei Lin added.
“The truth?” Gu Han asked rhetorically, “What is the truth? The truth is that I have taken good care of her these past six years, and as everyone knows, the Shen Shu of that year has died in an accident, and what you have just met is just someone with the same name who happens to be somewhat similar to the Shen Shu you know.”
He paused for a moment and propped his hands on his knees, crossing his fingers with a serious expression, “I think I’ve made it very clear to Mr. Zuo that my fiancée is doing very well now, and I don’t want anyone to bother her anymore, including you and those who don’t matter.”
“Heh, you’re simply crazy,” Mo Fei Lin snorted, “who are you to decide Shen Shu’s life, she has a family and a happiness of her own, besides she rejected you a long time ago, don’t you think it’s mean of you to take advantage of people like this now?”
“I don’t care.” Gu Han calmly leaned back in the chair behind him, “I just want her to live well, anyone else anything, I don’t care.”
“But Shen Shu cares, then ……”
“That’s enough.” Gu Han didn’t give Mo Fei Lin a chance to retort, his expression impatient, “I’m not in the mood to listen to you talking big talk here, all you need to know is that without me, Shen Shu can’t get rid of Mu Shen, now that Mu Shen is dead, she’s no longer a threat, there’s no way I can push her back into that fire, only I can take care of her, you guys don’t have to come back in the future.”
“Impossible,” Mo Fei Lin insisted, “you don’t want to confine Shen Shu for life, I’m her best friend, besides the Shen family ……”
“Shen’s family?” Gu Han sneered, “Can’t even stop a death obituary, do you think that if you let her go back to her old self, she will still be as safe as she is now?”
At the mention of this, Mo Fei Lin was suddenly speechless and speechless.
Gu Han then took the opportunity to get up, straightening his jacket while saying indifferently from a high position, “You can’t take back the water that has been spilled, so why don’t we just leave it at that, as if there is no Shen Shu in this world, I will naturally arrange a new identity for her, if you really want to do her good, then don’t meddle in it.”
