C11 A Late-night Exodus

The girl wiped the tears off her face and left in the direction of the dormitory.

"Go, don't worry your mother."

Hou Xiao suddenly stood up and shouted towards the girl's skinny back: "Ruo Ruo, I will definitely give you an explanation!"

She paused for a moment, turned around, and with tears streaming down her face, she said with a broken face, "Quickly go back. "You are the heir to the Hou clan. You should belong there, not here with me."

Hou Xiao's heart ached, and he was even more determined to get out of his family's control.

"I'll prove it to you."

After saying this, he stumbled back.

He staggered and nearly fell to the ground. However, he was stopped by a hand which helped him stabilize his body.

He looked up and realized it was Gu Shen.

"Gu Shen? What's wrong with you? " Hou Xiao suddenly had a scary thought.

"Yes, I sent Lin Ruo back." Gu Shen said affirmatively as if he knew what Ye Zichen was thinking.

"Gu Shen!" Do you take me for a brother or not? " Hou Xiao roared, pushed Gu Shen's hand away, and then staggered.

"I only told you because I treat you as my brother."

Gu Shen said indifferently and glanced in the direction Lin Ruo left.

"It's just a woman, you don't have to be like that."

Hou Xiao panicked. "What do you know!? If she, "he continued after a moment, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down," she is my life. "

Gu Shen snorted disdainfully at this kind of love brain.

Now that he saw Hou Xiao act like this for a woman, he felt that it was even more inappropriate.

His thin and cool lips slightly opened as he spoke even colder words.

"Your life is your own, and it's even more so your Hou Family."

"It can't be a woman."

However, when Hou Xiao heard the two words "Hou Family", it was as if he had been touched by a reverse scale: "Don't mention Hou Family to me!"

Gu Shen stopped talking and just stared at him.

Hou Xiao suddenly sneered. His eyes were full of ridicule as he stared into Gu Shen's eyes.

"You haven't, you don't understand."

Gu Shen was unmoved.

"Love." He continued to chew the word and finally came to a conclusion.

"A worthless thing."

His words were like the wind in the night, clear and cold.

Hou Xiao laughed even harder: "That's why I said you don't understand."

Then, he put away his expression and coldly said, "Don't mess with Ruo Ruo, she's mine."

"Otherwise, we brothers have no other choice."

Gu Shen frowned slightly. For a woman, not only did he not humiliate him, he even spoke to him in such an attitude.

He glanced at one of the windows in the dorm and smirked.

He wanted to see what else she could do.

Lin Ruo was behind the curtain.

Luckily, she dodged in time, otherwise, she would have been hit by Gu Shen.

She had intended to see if there would be any disagreement, but she was disappointed.

However, she could not hear a single word they were saying.

It didn't matter. There was still a long way to go.

… ….

In the middle of the night, Lin Ruo was shaken awake.

"Lin Ruo, wake up."

Fu Qing pushed Lin Ruo until she finally opened her eyes, then said, "Your phone has been ringing the entire time. Look, what if there's an emergency?"

Lin Ruo's eyes were filled with confusion as she looked out of the window.

It wasn't even dawn yet.

Fu Qing laid beside her bed and handed her cell phone to her. "Take a look."

Lin Ruo picked up the cell phone that had been vibrating. There were no comments on it, but she remembered the phone number.

It was Shen Lingjue, Hou Xiao's mother.

"Hello?" She spoke lazily, her tone was still the same …

"It's me." Shen Lingjue suppressed her anger and said to Lin Ruo, "What do you want?"

"Mrs. Hou?" She smiled. "It's too late. I need to sleep. Let's talk tomorrow."

Then he hung up and went silent.

She looked at Fu Qing apologetically and said, "Did we disturb you? "Sorry."

Shen Lingjue was the same. She was still on the phone this late at night. Would it disturb her rest?

Fortunately, Fu Qing didn't mind and just sighed, "It's alright. "But you slept soundly."

She smiled. "I have always had good quality sleep. You should also go back to sleep. "

"Yes." Fu Qing answered and went back to her own bed.

Her sleep was interrupted by Shen Lingjue's phone call, but she could still sleep better.

He was probably sure that Hou Xiao went back to mess with them.

The next day, Lin Ruo didn't expect Shen Lingjue to be so impatient. She had actually sent a chauffeur to guard the entrance of her dormitory, waiting for her to coerce her to get on the car.

She turned on her cell phone and found that it was full of missed calls.

"Madam, the person has received it." The driver reported to the other end after locking the door.

Lin Ruo smiled. "Is this how your wife treats her guests?"

Her voice was soft and gentle. There was no trace of fear in her voice. It was not a mocking tone, but more like a question.

However, the driver didn't say much and only said, "It's an emergency. I hope Miss Lin will take responsibility."

"Oh?" She opened her mouth, revealing a curious expression.

"What's the emergency?"

She really didn't know about this light tone, but she could probably guess it.

Last time, Hou Xiao was under the threat of a hunger strike, so what about this time?

She was curious.

In this life, how far could Hou Xiao go for her?

The driver quickly brought her to the Gu household.

The moment he entered, he saw Shen Lingjue on the sofa. What was amazing was that Gu Shen was also there.

She had her eyes closed, and behind her was a servant massaging her temples.

It was unconcealable.

"Madam, the person has arrived." The driver said respectfully.

Upon hearing this, Shen Lingjue immediately opened her eyes and saw Lin Ruo running towards her.

He grabbed her hand and glared at her as if he was going to eat her. "Speak! Where did you get him? "

Lin Ruo's expression didn't change as she replied, "Madam Gu, I don't understand what you mean."

"You're still putting on an act here!" Shen Lingjue was flustered and exasperated. How could she not see the elegance in the Wealthy Class Madam?

At this moment, Gu Shen spoke up from the side. He looked at Lin Ruo and said, "Hou Xiao came back last night and quarreled with his aunt. Then he disappeared."

"Running away from home?" This wasn't unexpected. She sneered in her heart, but her expression didn't change. "Did you make the phone call?"

Gu Shen comforted Shen Lingjue as he returned to the sofa.

"I can't get through."

Upon hearing that, Lin Ruo took out her phone and made a call to the person who had entered the blacklist.

No one answered.

Then, she switched off the mechanical female voice on her phone and asked, "Can I leave now?"

"You're not allowed to leave!" Gu LingJue saw that she was about to leave and anxiously said, "You are staying at the Gu household. You are not to go anywhere until Hou Xiao returns!"

"Mrs. Gu, illegal imprisonment is illegal." Lin Ruo said.

Shen Lingjue looked at the girl's face and finally realized that she was too emotional.

However, she was indeed worried. Hou Xiao had never quarreled with her like this before! He hadn't even said anything serious to her.

But last night, for this woman's sake, she actually said she would give up her position as the successor of the Gu family!
