Tyrannical Tycoon Haunts Me Relentlessly-Chapter 392: The Deepest Bitterness in My Heart
The doctor left, and Xia Yinian felt she really shouldn’t stay any longer.
She didn’t look at Gu Beicheng this time, but at Gu Feimo, who disliked her the most: "You stay and take care of Uncle."
Gu Feimo didn’t expect her to choose to leave voluntarily and immediately nodded: "Okay."
His response, devoid of any warmth, fell within Xia Yinian’s expectations. She dared not look at Gu Beicheng and turned to leave.
The speed at which she ran out was as if she was fleeing for her life, all in all, very anxious and flustered.
"Then take good care of Uncle," Gu Lingqian said as he also prepared to leave. It really was getting late, it was time for Uncle to rest. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
Having sustained such serious injuries, and still being disturbed up to this point, added hurting upon hurting, was indeed not good.
Even if one were made of iron, one is still flesh and blood, one can’t keep bleeding without resting.
Gu Lingqian left, and Feng Yan gave Gu Beicheng a look filled with thoughts before leaving.
Just now, that girl’s clothes were a disheveled mess, Gu Beicheng had probably already undressed her.
Once undressed, naturally the whip marks on the body could be seen, not knowing whether the girl had said anything to Gu Beicheng that she shouldn’t have.
However, if she had indeed said something, Beicheng wouldn’t be able to remain so calm at this moment.
Probably, she hasn’t said it yet, but since the whip wounds have been seen, sooner or later, she will speak.
It only depends on... how she will speak...
After Xia Yinian left the room, she suddenly felt unsure of where to go.
During the day she had stayed in the Old Master’s room, where Grandpa Feng was incredibly kind to her, offering her delicious food and drink, and took personal care of her.
Even though he was confined to a wheelchair, he could still operate the electric wheelchair on his own. Knowing her anxiety, he even kept her company all day.
But now, coming out of the medical room, it seems she really had nowhere to go.
"Haven’t they arranged a guest room for you?" Gu Lingqian came up behind her.
All night, Xia Yinian had been in turmoil, knowing that Gu Lingqian was here, but there was never a moment to pay attention to him.
Now, suddenly hearing his voice, her thoughts became disordered.
The interaction between her and Uncle tonight, did he see it all clearly?
Uncle was willing to give up his life for her, did he see it clearly, too?
Then, about the agreement between them...
"Let’s talk about whatever it is back at the Gu Family." Gu Lingqian gently patted her arm, "I’ll take you to rest."
Xia Yinian hesitated for a moment, then followed his footsteps into a guest room.
"Is this the room arranged for you?" Seeing him nod, Xia Yinian felt uneasy, "Then where will you be staying tonight...?"
"The Feng Family’s estate is so big, where can’t I find a guest room? Besides, I’m a grown man, where can’t I sleep?"
He was just a bit concerned, that she might be scared by herself in this place.
"Do you need me to stay with you?"
Seeing her startled expression, Gu Lingqian felt a sudden sourness in his heart, but he could only muster a reluctant smile.
"It’s not what you think; now, who doesn’t know you’re Uncle’s girl? I won’t compete with Uncle for a woman."
"Mr. Ling..."
"Is it because you’ve become Uncle’s girl, that you’re so distant from me? Mr. Ling?"
The sourness in Gu Lingqian’s heart intensified, he himself didn’t understand where this sourness came from, but it had already deeply rooted itself into his heart.
A strange feeling of bitterness, for the first time in his life, rose because of a girl.
"I’m sorry." Xia Yinian didn’t know what else to say to him; in any case, she had breached their agreement: "Don’t touch the orphanage, the money... I will find a way to pay you back."
