The water in the summer was still bone-chilling, and the water hit his skin. Gu Ci was so cold that she had lost consciousness. When she woke up, she realized that she wasn't in her usual sleeping spot. When she sat up, she felt sore all over and her head was heavy.
She rubbed her heavy head and let out a cry. A person pushed open the door and entered. When she saw the person's face, she was sure that the person who saved her at night was really Li Rui. Li Rui was wearing a modern casual sportswear and stood in front of her bed. Gu Ci turned her head and asked. "Why are you here?"
"Just like last time, he came out of nowhere.”Li Rui said. "Gu Ci, why did you leave? Why do you still have to give me an explanation?”
Li Rui, it's impossible between us." Gu Ci said. "No matter what the reason is, it's impossible for us.”After she finished speaking, she got out of bed and put on her clothes. When she returned to the Chen family, Wancui said that Chen He had not returned for the entire night. Old Master already knew about Chen He and Xiang Xue. Gu Ci thought about it and went out of the city again. However, she saw Chen He coming out of Xiang Xue's room and did not give Gu Ci a good look. Gu Ci became even more nervous. Is there anything wrong with Xiangxue?"
"Gu Ci, if anything happens to Xiangxue, I won't forgive you.”Chen He pointed at her.
"Hey, Chen He, I'm just trying to help you, okay? I feel anxious just by looking at your attitude.”Gu Ci said," You clearly like her. Why do you pretend like you don't care?" I only thought of it on the spot. I didn't expect Xiang Xue to be so weak and unable to swim.”
Chen He said. "Yes, it's all thanks to you. I know now, but Xiang Xue's fever doesn't stop.”
"I didn't know Xiangxue didn't know how to swim either.”Gu Ci said. A manservant brought the doctor in. Chen He welcomed the doctor in, and Gu Ci followed. The doctor wrote a list and Gu Ci made up for her mistake. She ran to grab the medicine and came back to boil the medicine. She personally served Xiang Xue.
Xiang Xue finally woke up in the afternoon. Before she could go up and ask, she saw Chen He holding Xiang Xue's hand and asking about her well-being.
Gu Ci left the room. After a while, Chen He came out and sat with Gu Ci in front of the door. Gu Ci asked. "Your father knows that you didn't come home last night and that you were with Xiang Xue. What should we do?”
"Gu Ci, Xiangxue is the girl I like. I will protect her. I will also tell my father about this.”Chen He said. She asked Gu Ci to go back first." I'll stay here and take care of her. If there's anything, I'll go back and explain it to Father personally.”
Gu Ci shook her head." I'm not going back. I'll stay and take care of her. We're both girls. It's more convenient for us to take care of each other."”、Chen He had no choice but to say," Up to you.”
Chen He took good care of Xiang Xue for a few days, and Xiang Xue finally got better. Sometimes, the two of them would walk around the courtyard together and watch the sunset. Gu Ci would sit at the side and watch the two of them rely on each other.
Sometimes, love was such a simple thing. When one met the right person, they would naturally love each other for the rest of their lives.
Xiang Xue's body was weak. She only recovered after half a month. Gu Ci would wake Xiang Xue up when she couldn't sleep at night." Xiang Xue, do you think love can be trusted?”
Xiang Xue's voice sounded in the darkness. "I don't know, Gu Ci. I'm very happy but also very afraid. I'm afraid that Chen He's family will despise my background, but I'm also attracted by Chen He's kindness to me.”
"Maybe it's like this sometimes. He was afraid of losing something. However, one could only understand the difference between loss and gain after accepting it.”Xiang Xue said. She was weak but strong. Gu Ci could not do this. She was afraid that the things she had would disappear again, just like how her father had left her and she had been alone in the world.
The cicadas chirped endlessly on the trees, and their ear-piercing sounds made the summer heat even more annoying. The servant boy went to buy some fruits and returned. The three of them sat under the grape tree in the courtyard and ate some fruits to relieve the heat.
"So you guys are here?" Chen Chuan said with a smile.
The three of them were still afraid of what Chen Chuan had done previously. Gu Ci asked angrily,"What are you doing here?"”
Chen He seemed to have known Chen Chuan's purpose for coming, so he continued to speak. "You can go back first. I will explain to my father.”
Chen Chuan smiled and didn't speak to Gu Ci." Brother, you're really hiding a mistress in a golden house this time." But don't blame me for not reminding you as your younger brother. It's not that easy to pass Father's side.”
"Don't forget that you've already decided on a marriage, and your fiancée has already reached the age of marriage this year.”This sentence was obviously like a time bomb. He looked at the changed expressions of the few of them and looked at the three of them meaningfully before leaving. Xiang Xue was worried about Chen He.”
Chen He said. "It's okay. I'll go back and explain.”He turned around to comfort Xiang Xue and said to Gu Ci," Stay behind and take care of Xiang Xue. If anything happens, remember to deal with it well.”
He patted Xiang Xue's hand and gave her a reassuring look before leaving. Xiang Xue watched him leave nervously and said to Gu Ci, "Gu Ci, why do I feel like something is going to happen?”
