1987 Words
The people present were clearly looking at Qiguan Hao. Those eyes that looked like wolves and tigers felt a chill Gu Mengran the heart of a woman. It was no wonder that Qiguan Hao would be forced to look for her to rob her. "You have to protect yourself." Gritting her teeth, Gu Mengran clenched her Qiguan Hao tightly. Her heart felt uneasy. These women who wanted to marry into a wealthy family were not easy to mess with at all. Just looking at her's sister', she knew that just one Gu Xiaojia was enough for her. If she was targeted by this large group of' Gu Xiaojia' because of Qiguan Hao, she would definitely not be able to live a peaceful life in the future. ###Chapter18 It was as if he didn't notice that his little arm had been forcefully pinched by Gu Mengran. Qiguan Hao just glanced at the crowd in the room and walked towards the center of the crowd with Gu Mengran. "You ……" Seeing Qiguan Hao ignoring him, Gu Mengran was just about to say something when Qiguan Hao interrupted him." Keep smiling. Leave the rest to me." As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Mengran saw a woman dressed in luxurious clothes walking towards them with a faint smile. The woman was wearing a date-red velvet long dress. Her face that had been properly maintained did not show any trace of the past few years. Her long curly hair was languidly wrapped around her head, and some restless black threads gently swept across her fair neck, adding a touch of charm to this woman's already magnificent face. With just a glance, Gu Mengran could roughly guess who this woman was. Because her cold eyes were exactly the same as Qiguan Hao's, when she faced the woman's eyes, Gu Mengran intentionally or unintentionally avoided them. Her heart was filled with nervousness. The woman's beautiful eyes cast a sidelong glance at Gu Mengran. Her eyes were filled with insufferably arrogant arrogance, and her voice was the same as Qiguan Hao's. It was always cold," Looks like you already have the best candidate?" Qiguan Hao nodded and didn't waste any more words. He pulled over the Gu Mengran and asked her to face it directly." This is my mother." Seeing Qiguan Hao introduce himself to his mother, Gu Mengran was stunned for half a second before he quickly greeted her," Auntie... Hello, my name is Gu Mengran." Tong Yulian responded indifferently and turned her gaze to Qiguan Hao." There are indeed a few beauties. If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have arranged today's banquet for you." When she heard the cold and low scolding in her voice, there wasn't the slightest trace of warmth between the mother and son. Gu Mengran heart could n' t help but be surprised. It seemed that this Qiguan Hao didn't have a good relationship with his mother. "This is your business." Just as Gu Mengran was speculating in his heart, Qiguan Hao thin lips lifted and spat out the same cold words. Without giving her the chance to speak, he led her away. Looking at Qiguan Hao still indifferent back, Gu Mengran suddenly felt an indescribable sadness. It was as if the Qiguan Hao in front of him was about to cry. After a moment of silence, Gu Mengran still spoke. Oh, Auntie ……" Because she had been dragged away all this time, Gu Mengran was a little distracted. She almost fell to the ground when she felt unstable. However, a pair of large hands suddenly appeared at her waist and held her firmly in her arms. Their movements weren't big to begin with, but because Qiguan Hao was too eye-catching, all of their gazes turned towards them. Lowering his head, Gu Mengran was about to push the Qiguan Hao away when he saw the thin lips of the Qiguan Hao in the corner of his eyes. He secretly cried out in his heart. Just as he was about to struggle, his mouth was tightly blocked by an icy cold lips. The banquet hall suddenly became deathly silent, causing Gu Mengran heart to sink. This Qiguan Hao really wanted to kill her! Not to mention Qiguan Hao mother's gaze, just the eyes of those women were enough to kill her. He panicked and Gu Mengran reached out to push the Qiguan Hao away, but he didn't expect that his waist would become even tighter. Gu Mengran heard Qiguan Hao low voice," Don't move!" "Do you still want me to help you?" With just a few words, Gu Mengran completely lost the sense of resistance. After weighing the pros and cons, Gu Mengran could only reluctantly hold Qiguan Hao hand and rush to where no one was. However, in the dark corner of the banquet, no one noticed that a pair of black eagle-like eyes were staring in the direction where Gu Mengran and Qiguan Hao disappeared. "Pa!" A clear voice echoed in the corridor. Gu Mengran frowned as he looked at the Qiguan Hao in front of him." Even if you want to play, you have to ask my opinion, right?" It was as if that slap didn't even hit his face. Qiguan Hao glanced at Gu Mengran lightly. She did n' t know whether it was because she was too shy after kissing him or because she was about to leave. A blush appeared on her fair face, adding a touch of popularity to Jue Chen's face. She looked at the Qiguan Hao question, but she didn't wait for anyone to speak for a long time. She frowned and Gu Mengran impatiently turned around and prepared to leave. She needed his help, but it did n' t mean that she could let him play with her. At that moment Qiguan Hao suddenly spoke faintly, his voice cold as if he was speaking to the air. "Does your hand hurt?" Gu Mengran was stunned when he didn't say anything. He stopped and turned his face to the side. He could only see the cigarette he lit in the shadows. After Qiguan Hao took a deep breath, the red dots of light became vivid and twinkled in the dark corridor. It was as if the person's thoughts were dim. She glanced at the Gu Mengran who didn't say anything and did n' t move. Qiguan Hao pulled the corner of her mouth and suddenly laughed softly. "Your hand hurts and my face hurts. How about we even out?" The smile in her deep voice instantly spread through the empty corridor, shaking the Gu Mengran's heart. Why, Qiguan Hao was clearly smiling, but she sounded a little sad. Qiguan Hao strange back figure appeared in Gu Mengran's mind. He gritted his teeth and stomped his feet. He gave up on the idea of leaving, turned around, and walked to Qiguan Hao. He grabbed the cigarette in his hand and extinguished it before looking at Qiguan Hao. His pair of dark eyes, which always flashed with wisdom, didn't know if it was because the light was too dim, but Gu Mengran could only see a dark darkness. "Are you saying that it's even? "Even if you owe me a favor this time, it's too boring here. I' ll take you home when I get dressed." He raised his eyes and looked at the Gu Mengran with a hint of hostility and a clean expression as usual. The corner of Qiguan Hao mouth rose again, but this time, the faint bitterness disappeared. In the car, Gu Mengran glanced at the Qiguan Hao from time to time. It seemed that every family had something difficult to read. She had a vicious stepmother and sister, while Qiguan Hao had a cold mother. As she passed by a beach, Gu Mengran suddenly stopped Qiguan Hao and her mind sank. She knew what had happened today, so she couldn't understand each other," Let's …… "Let's go." After stopping the car, Qiguan Hao got out of the car and lit a cigarette. As the smoke rose, it blew the sea breeze that still carried a trace of stuffiness Gu Mengran bit his lip and opened his mouth. "After losing my mother, I feel that my life has no goals or hope. Actually... "To some extent, the appearance of Shen Yan has actually given me a goal. Although it sounds unbelievable." ###Chapter19 In the sea breeze, Qiguan Hao listened Gu Mengran narrating her childhood and her mother, who was always unwell. One cigarette after another. From time to time, Qiguan Hao would drop their eyes to take a look at Gu Mengran face that had become complicated due to the wind blowing the black silk in the night sky. Their dark eyes narrowed again and again until the end, without saying a word. He found a big stone and sat down. Gu Mengran looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh of relief. These words had been suppressed in her heart for a long time. After her mother died, she was like a kite that had lost her backbone. Not only could she not fly, she also had no desire to fly. When she met Shen Yan, she didn't even have the time to defend herself and was ruthlessly slapped by reality. After experiencing so many things in the past few days, she finally felt like she was alive. She had always been someone who was not afraid of difficulties and hardships. The more she suffered, the more courageous she became. Her mother's death had taken everything away from her, but now that the Shen Yan had arrived, her fighting spirit her fighting spirit. At the end of the sentence, Gu Mengran turned around to look at the Qiguan Hao who had been silently listening to her. His tone was very light, as if it would be blown away by the sea breeze at any time. However, he was extremely serious." You can use me as much as you like, and I will do everything I can to protect what my mother left me." Finally, she smoked the last cigarette. Qiguan Hao sat next to Gu Mengran and looked at the sea and the sky with her. Her mood seemed to have widened. Gu Mengran words were more of a temptation than a confession. Previously, Qiguan Hao had looked for Gu Mengran several times, but they had all been rejected. This time, it looked like they were begging Gu Mengran. However, Qiguan Hao knew that in Gu Mengran's heart, there was still another way out. Otherwise, he would n' t have slapped him in the corridor without even thinking about it. Qiguan Hao believed that it was impossible for her to be as smart as her to not see the difference between her and her mother. The reason why she had finally said that she was only interested in her own matters was to show her position that she was determined to stand front of her. Otherwise, there was no need for her to tell Qiguan Hao about her past. She was telling her sincerity. "What if I say no?" Hearing Qiguan Hao question, Gu Mengran turned around and looked at the night with a serious expression. Qiguan Hao handsome face was sharp and cold, and the firmness in his clear eyes was unquestionable." Then I'll go find someone else." Looking at this Gu Mengran, Qiguan Hao didn't doubt it at all. If she refused, she would definitely leave immediately without a trace of nostalgia. "I guess that person is my brother." Qiguan Hao indifferently said what Gu Mengran thought in his heart as he looked at the distance lazily. "Yes." She wasn't surprised or confused. Gu Mengran just nodded. She did n' t think so at first, but after hearing the conversation between Shen Yan and Gu Xiaojia, she began to weigh it in her heart. To be honest, she didn't hate Qiguan Hao at all. Although he always did things that she hated, deep down in her heart, she actually agreed with Qiguan Hao. So, if possible, she wanted to work with Qiguan Hao, but if Qiguan Hao did n' t want to, she could take it back and find his brother.
