C18 Vexation of Heart!

After Gu Zifan had gone upstairs to settle his father down, his mother called him down to escort Chu Xiaqing home.

After receiving his mother's order, Gu Zifan wordlessly took the car keys and hurried downstairs. It was for no other reason but because the person in front of him was Chu Xiaoqing …

Midsummer's night was always so intoxicating. The pitch-black sky was filled with glittering stars, making it particularly dazzling. A bright moon hung high up in the sky. The faint light was like a thin gauze that fluttered about. It reflected on the ground as if it was sprinkled with a layer of silver, sparkling and translucent.

Similarly, the summer night's wind was also anticipated. As it blew over, it was exceptionally fresh and cool. The frogs hidden in the grass also began to croak non-stop. The cicadas attached to the tree trunk did not concede, they cried "know what to know", and at some point, the fireflies flew out to take advantage of the cool air. They flashed on the tree in a very good-looking way …

Facing such a good view of the summer night, Chu Xiaqing, who was sitting in Gu Zifan's car, didn't have the mood to appreciate or feel it at all.

Sometimes, even Chu Xiaqing herself could not help but curse him for his lack of talent. If Gu Zi Chen had already done this to her, wouldn't she have already given up on him? Shouldn't he no longer care about anything?

But why was he still affected by Gu Zi Chen? It was just like how Gu Zi Chen had left to find Han XIya in front of everyone tonight. Wasn't she fine with that? Then how could he explain his current depressed and dispirited expression?

As if she really didn't want to think about it any longer, her head hurt …

Leaning her head against the seat, Chu Xiaoqing gently closed her eyes, wanting to rest. Otherwise, she was really afraid that her brain would explode.

Since Chu Xiaqing didn't say anything, Gu Zifan didn't know what to say, so he simply kept silent. Even so, the corner of his eyes never left Chu Xiaoxiao.

Ever since Chu Xiaoqing had gotten on the carriage, Gu Zifan had taken in all the changes in her expression. He naturally knew the reason why Chu Xiaoqing was feeling so uncomfortable.

But even if he knew, Gu Zifan still didn't have any solution …

He could not understand why Chu Xiaqing was so good. His brother just did not know how to cherish her and instead chose to continuously hurt her. Why was this so?

If he had betrothed Chu Xiaoqing to him when the family made the decision to marry, he would not have let her suffer such grievances. He would have held her in his palm like a precious jewel in his palm.

For the first time, Gu Zifan began to envy the position of the Gu family's eldest young master …

"Sister-in-law? Eldest Sister-in-Law! "We're here …"

Unknowingly, they had arrived. When Gu Zifan saw that Chu Xiaoqing had fallen asleep in the front passenger seat, he called out to her in a soft voice.

"Hmm?"

Originally, Chu Xiaoqing was sleeping soundly, but when Gu Zifan called out to her, she immediately woke up. When she regained her senses, she realized that she had arrived home.

"Sorry, I was a bit sleepy and fell asleep."

After waking up, Chu Xiaoqing said a few words to Gu Zifan in embarrassment. Then, she picked up her bag and prepared to leave the car.

"That... "Thank you, Zi Fan. Bring me back. When you go back, drive carefully."

After getting out of the car, she looked at Gu Zifan in the car. Only then did Chu Xiaoqing leave the car with some concern. After she finished speaking, she turned around and prepared to leave …

Just as Chu Xiaoqing was about to leave, she was stopped by Gu Zifan from behind.

"Eldest Sister-in-Law!"

Gu Zifan also didn't know why he suddenly called out to Chu Xiaoqing. In short, as he watched her leave, Gu Zifan's heart was filled with a strange emotion. He subconsciously couldn't hold back his words and directly called out to Chu Xiaoqing.

"Hmm? "What's wrong? Is something the matter?"

When she heard Gu Zifan's voice calling her, Chu Xiaoqing immediately stopped. She turned around, looked at Gu Zifan, and asked him.

"No …." Nothing, that... "Just remember to take good care of yourself …"

Upon being asked by Chu Xiaqing, Gu Zifan was momentarily at a loss as to what to say. In the end, he casually replied with a sentence.

Actually, what he wanted to say was, if not, divorce his brother. There was no need to be afraid, he was still here, he would treat her well. But these words, he could only think, it was impossible to say them out loud.

After all, Chu Xiaoqing was still his elder sister-in-law in name …

"Mm, I understand. You too. Be careful when you go back. I'll be leaving first."

After hearing Gu Zifan's words, Chu Xiaqing politely replied back before finally turning around and entering the house.

Watching Chu Xiaqing safely enter the house, Gu Zifan's eyes were calm, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

It's fine. There are some things that can't be rushed. Take it slow. It's best if his brother can treat Chu Xiaoqing properly in the coming days. Otherwise, he won't let things continue like this …

With that thought in mind, Gu Zifan immediately turned the car around and left.

Ever since Han XIya called Gu Zi Chen to come over for a meal that night, Chu Xiaqing had not seen Gu Zi Chen for three days, not to mention contacting him.

Yet, she still went to work as usual, living by herself. Once again, the relationship between her and Gu Zi Chen had reverted back to a parallel line …

At the very least, Chu Xiaoqing enjoyed it quite a bit. She would eat whenever she was hungry, sleep when she was tired, chat with her best friends, stroll around the streets when she was free, and no one would give her any trouble. Instead, she would be happy and free when she was free.

However, it had only been a few days since Chu Xiaoqing had settled down. She had started to look for trouble again …
