Chu Baoyu's eyes flickered, and started crying: ”I also didn't think about how Lun Er became like this. When something happened to my mother, her attitude towards me clearly changed, I … This is a double whammy for me, I... ”Howl …”
Gu Zhongxian was a little upset from Chu Baoyu's crying. Coupled with what Ning Zhu said, it made Gu Zhongxian feel a little nervous.
He knew very well, no matter how much he hated Ning Zhu, he would not be able to do anything to them.
However, if this opportunity were to be given away to the current Gu Zhongxian, he might not be able to get it again for the rest of his life. Unfortunately, he also had the mindset that as long as he kept a low profile, there would be less people in the academy who would keep an eye on him.
Chu Baoyu sobbed, ”I think Big Brother Gu is good in my heart, but I am also worried for Big Brother Gu's safety. I understand Ning Zhu, she is very arrogant, domineering and rude, because she has the protection of her family. I shouldn't have said that as a friend, but she always bullies people, and now she puts it all on me. If she wanted to do something, she had no bottom line. She could definitely do it. I... I got angry and started arguing with her. ”
Gu Zhongxian hugged the warm Chu Baoyu, his heart feeling a little desolate. As expected, a tiger falling to the ground was being bullied by a dog.
When the two of them got up from bed, Gu Zhongxian had already decided to give up the position. He was unwilling, but he was more afraid of death, and if the Ning Residence really wanted to snatch this position, even if he racked his brains, he would not be able to keep it. They were now considered to be members of the Ning Residence.
”What!?” For you to ask me to hand over the placings, what makes you think you can!? ” Not only did Gu Zhongxian need to hand it over, he also needed to hand over Gu Zhongying's quota.
Gu Zhongying's face was dark, her fists clenched, her entire body trembling.
Chu Baocheng looked at Gu Zhongying's face, which was flushed red in anger. He didn't realize that Gu Zhongying's figure was actually not bad, and he was a little sympathetic, ”This is also something that cannot be helped. If the Ning Residence were to use any forceful method to force you guys to do it, it would be even more embarrassing than now.”
Gu Zhongying understood the reasoning, but that was a quota that she had worked hard for. What kind of life did she live in the Gu Mansion all these years, how could others imagine it? And after doing so much, she was about to lose her life even though she thought that the sunlight was right in front of her eyes.
”Impossible, I won't hand it over!” Gu Zhongying rushed out after she finished speaking.
”Gu Zhongying, come back here!” Gu Zhongxian bellowed in anger.
However, Gu Zhongjing, who would normally fart with his own strength, and would not even dare to retaliate when scolding, had completely ignored his words. Gu Zhongxian was so angry that he went crazy: ”This idiot doesn't know what's important, wait for her to come back, let's see how I'm going to take him in!”
Gu Zhongying turned and ran angrily. When she was out of the courtyard, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.
In Yan Xiao's room, a series of hurried knocks sounded out. ”Dang Dang Dang.”
”Who?”
Yan Xiao sat without moving, and after being quiet outside for a while, someone spoke: ”Yan Xiao, it's me, Gu Zhongying, I have urgent matters to discuss with you.”
Yan Xiao raised her eyebrows, didn't he want to invite her to meet him at night earlier, so was Gu Zhongying not in a rush?
Thinking about it this way, Yan Xiao still stood up and opened the door for Gu Zhongying. Gu Zhongying had invited her to meet him outside, maybe she wouldn't care about it, but it was a bit better inside her own room.
The moment she opened the door, Yan Xiao was shocked. Gu Zhongying's face was streaked with tears, he was crying profusely and he no longer carried the door like he used to.
Yan Xiao blinked her eyes and asked calmly: What's the matter?
Gu Zhongying slapped him, and nodded with all his might, then looked at his surroundings: ”Let's go in, then talk.”
Yan Xiao's eyebrows shot up, but she still gave way.
After Gu Zhongying entered, she was still crying. Yan Xiao was not in a hurry, she sat down and poured tea for herself, seeing what tricks Gu Zhongying was planning to play.
Maybe Gu Zhongying was really angry or sad, or maybe she was acting up for Yan Xiao to see, but what did it matter, she had to cooperate.
”Yan Xiao, you're in danger!”
After a while, Gu Zhongying stopped crying, but the expression on her face was one of fear as she looked at Yan Xiao, with an especially nervous expression: ”Do you know why Chu Baoyu and Ning Zhu would cause a ruckus? That's completely acting, they just wanted you guys to relax your vigilance, and then, within the Ringfield Secret Area, they would make a move on you!”
Yan Xiao let out an ”oh”. His expression did not change at all, nor did she feel that this was not a big deal. However, it was way too calm.
Gu Zhongying was stunned by her expression: ”You … Not afraid? ”
Yan Xiao looked at Gu Zhongying with a smile that was not really a smile: ”Why should I be afraid? ”If you can't protect yourself once you're inside, no matter how much you care, you can only allow others to do whatever they want. If you have the ability to protect yourself, it's easier for the other party to avoid your conspiracy.
