Chapter 154 What You Have Done!
“Ning, don’t be afraid. Tell me what happened. Maybe I can give you some advice.” Gu Luan says and pats on her shoulder.
At this moment, he really wants to embrace her tightly, but he is afraid that he may scare her to run away from him.
Since he has made up his mind, he is going to launch his plan. Yi Yunrui doesn’t have much time to stay with her. How can he protect her? How can he give her happiness!
Xia Ning holds the phone tightly and keeps shaking her head. Her eyes are blank.
“Ning?” Gu Luan sees her getting more and more depressed. He is anxious, “Is Yin Jingsi threatening you? Tell me. I may give you some advice. I may even help you.”
Xia Ning is confused. Can she tell Gu Luan about it?
Xia Ning slowly turns to look at Gu Luan. The man stares at her intensely. The sincerity in his eyes is real without any impurity.
He is really worried about her.
Xia Ning feels warm in her heart. “Director Gu. It is nothing serious. I can handle it. You may…go back to C City. I am not seriously injured. I may leave the hospital very soon.”
Gu Luan freezes his eyes and he looks serious. He stares quietly at Xia Ning.
She regards him as an outsider.
She even doesn’t want to talk with him!
Gu Luan feels his heart aching. He takes a deep breath and says slowly: “Ning, don’t you know what I am? I have known you for eight years.”
Director Gu…Xia Ning is surprised.
Yes. Gu Luan was her senior when they were in Britain. Being mature and nice, he attracted many girls’ adoration. Gu Luan is a reliable man, a very reliable man.
But…
Those photos can’t be seen by others, absolutely can’t!
As long as they are not known to others, she has got some time to figure out the solution. If Gu Luan knows, the consequence may be beyond her expectation.
In addition, Gu Luan is a well-known person with high social status and good reputation. If he knows what happened to her, she will feel embarrassed when they meet again.
Even if she wants to tell him, it is not going to happen today.
She can’t calm herself down and can’t make a sensible judgement or figure out the best solution now.
She will need to wait for some days.
Thinking of this, Xia Ning shakes her head: “Director, please leave me alone. I am quite confused now. I am sorry.”
Gu Luan thinks for a while and gives a sigh: “All right. You have a rest to get better first.”
Xia Ning mildly smiles: “Thank you.”
Gu Luan feels his heart aching. He smiles sadly: “Ning, I hope that you don’t say “thank you” to me again, will you? When you say thanks, I feel that we are strangers. I hope you can call me Luan from now on.”
Xia Ning curls her lips and doesn’t respond.
Luan. It sounds as if they have some intimate relation.
Seeing Xia Ning not respond, Gu Luan is helpless. He gently pats on her shoulder: “Ning, no matter what happened. I will stand by your side. Don’t worry.”
Not waiting for Xia Ning to reply, Gu Luan turns to walk out of the room.
He believes that Xia Ning is going to say “thank you” again.
Xia Ning stays at the hospital for two days and leaves on the third day.
Gu Luan planned to ask Xia Ning to stay for some other days, but Xia Ning insisted in leaving the hospital.
At noon on the third day, they take the flight and go back to C City.
Gu Luan looks at Xia Ning who sits by him quietly. His heart tightens.
During the two days in the hospital, Xia Ning hardly said anything and she seldom showed any impressions on her face.
Only when she received the callings from Yi Yunrui, would she laugh happily, as if nothing had ever happened.
But after she hung up the phone, she would return to the depression with no words.
Not knowing why, when he looks at Xia Ning’s impressions, Gu Luan feels that something inside Xia Ning is changing.
He hates himself for not being able to read her mind or finding out what she is thinking about.
However, he is aware that she is definitely not thinking about good things.
What on earth did Yin Jingsi do to her?
Being Aware that Gu Luan is staring at her, Xia Ning turns her face and looks at Gu Luan’s intense eyes.
They stare at each other and Xia Ning feels something around them is gradually changing. Xia Ning is shocked. She hurriedly lowers her head.
Does she have any illusion?
When Gu Luan looks at her, she finds some other things in his eyes, which scare her.
Does Gu Luan…
Xia Ning tightens her heart and turns away her face in a hurry to look through the window.
It is complicated enough. At this point of time, she doesn’t want to get any other things involved.
Her deliberate escape is caught completely by him.
Gu Luan slightly frowns. He blinks his eyes and pats on the back of her hand. He says in a low voice: “We are arriving in C City. You may have a rest to adjust your mood these days. You may contact me for anything unhappy. I believe that with my capability, I can give you some help to deal with your burdens.
Gu Luan sees that Xia Ning is going to speak, he waves his hand: “Don’t say thanks to me again.”
Xia Ning gently smiles and nods: “OK.”
It is five in the afternoon. Gu Luan and Xia Ning get to C City. They get off the plane. Gu Luan smiles: “I am very hungry. Shall we go to have dinner? What do you think?”
To have dinner at five?
Xia Ning is confused. She is aware that Gu Luan looks at her sincerely. She can’t bear to refuse him. She nods: “OK.”
Gu Luan’s assistant has been waiting for them at the airport. They send Xia Ning’s luggage back to the military compound and help to carry the luggage to her home. Then, Gu Luan tells his assistant to leave.
Xia Ning is confused: “Why doesn’t he go for dinner with us?”
Gu Luan shakes his head: “He has got his appointment in the evening. We may not bother him.”
Gu Luan responds meaningfully. Xia Ning is surprised.
“Get yourself sit well. I am going to drive fast. I am very hungry. You didn’t eat well in the hospital. We will find a good restaurant to have a delicious dinner.”
Not waiting for Xia Ning to respond, Gu Luan presses the accelerator and the car roars away…
Ten minutes later, the car stops in front of a restaurant which is specialized in making medicine foods.
The beautiful waitresses at the door see Gu Luan. They smile to greet him at once: “Mr. Gu, welcome to the restaurant.”
Soon, a man dressed like a manager comes. He hurriedly comes to Gu Luan and holds out his hand: “Director Gu. I haven’t seen you for a while. What brings you here today?”
Gu Luan smiles and shakes hands with him: “I am busy recently and don’t have time to come. I am flattered that Manager Huang still remembers me.”
“Ah. What are you saying? Well, this is?”
Gu Luan glances at Xia Ning: “This is Xia Ning, the Director of Entertainment Department of our company.”
“Director Xia, nice to meet you!”
“Hello, Manager Huang.”
They greet each other and soon Manager Huang offers a VIP Room to them and they go in together. Gu Luan orders quite a lot of dishes, many of which are suggested by Manager Huang.”
Manager Huang chats with Gu Luan, while the dishes are served very soon. Manager Huang talks with Gu Luan for a little while and then leaves the VIP Room with some excuse.
Now, Xia Ning has time to look around the room. It is exquisitely decorated!
Only that jade screen may cost a lot of money. There is a marble tea table. And there are various of jade bottles and works of art on the antique shelf. It is imaginable what kind of people will have dinner in this VIP Room.
Gu Luan picks many foods for Xia Ning. Xia Ning eats the food and looks at the decoration of the room. She suddenly feels that it is not suitable for her to come here with Gu Luan.
Though they are just having a dinner, just two of them…
Thinking of this, Xia Ning says: “Director Gu, I don’t feel well. I want to go home after dinner, or I may not be able to go to work tomorrow…
“You may have a rest tomorrow. You don’t need to go to work.” Gu Luan says and picks a piece of silkie for her.
Xia Ning is speechless. It seems that Gu Luan tends to treat her more intimately.
Is that her illusion?
Is that an illusion?
Or, Gu Luan also treats other colleagues the same?
Xia Ning is hesitating when the door of the room is slapped heavily. Gu Luan frowns.
“Brother Luan, I know you are inside. Come out!”
Xia Ning is shocked. It is Gu Ruoruo!
Shit. Now Gu Ruoruo considers Xia Ning a super bad woman, while she is staying with Gu Luan. Gu Ruoruo will misunderstand more badly.
Gu Luan is not going to open the door. Then, he realizes that the door is not locked.
Gu Ruoruo rushes in and Wan Liqing enters the room with her.
Looking at Gu Ruoruo and Wan Liqing, Xia Ning suddenly has the feeling that she can never explain clearly.
“You are here!” Gu Ruoruo angrily blows out her cheeks. She points at Xia Ning and scolds: “Xia Ning, you are a home wrecker! You seduced Yin Jingsi’s husband. And you are seducing my brother. How can you do that?” Saying this, Gu Ruoruo walks to Xia Ning and holds out her hands, wanting to draw Xia Ning out.”
“Nonsense! Gu Ruoruo, what are you doing?” Gu Luan grabs her hand, “Why are you here? Keep your manners!”
“Brother Luan,” Gu Ruoruo stamps her foot, “You were not there. You don’t know. This woman seduced Ou Yixuan. She is a bad woman, a home wrecker…”
“Shut up!” Gu Luan darkens his face and stops her, “Gu Ruoruo, I order you to disappear within one minute from here. Or, I will kick you out myself. And you will not be allowed to leave home again.”
“You!” Gu Ruoruo curls her lips and fiercely looks at Xia Ning, “It is your fault! Let me tell you. Brother Luan’s woman is Sister Liqing! Sister Liqing, you speak something! Or, you will lose Brother Luan!”
“…” Wan Liqing looks at Gu Luan. Her beautiful eyes show a lot of words, but she doesn’t know how to speak them out.
Five years ago, it was her decision to leave Gu Luan. Though she is angry to see Xia Ning and Gu Luan stay together, what’s the identity for her to speak anything?
Seeing Wan Liqing’s hesitation, Gu Ruoruo is more anxious. She draws her hand away from Gu Luan: “Brother Luan, I know you don’t like me, but in my eyes, you are always my blood-tied brother, my dearest brother! I will never allow you to be with such an evil woman.”
