Mu Jinyu left the hospital with Gu Xiyan.
Once in the car, Gu Xiyan still looked a bit sulky, and as she thought more about it, she beca increasingly angry. She turned to Mu Jinyu and mocked, "Don't you call yourself 'one million yuan to treat an illness, ten million to save a life'? How co today you treated soone without charging a di?"
Mu Jinyu felt a bit guilty, and calmly said, "She's one of our employees, and employees are like family, aren't they? When treating family, why bother with money?"
"I don't believe you for a second!" Gu Xiyan glared at Mu Jinyu and said indignantly, "I see it's not her money you're after, but her!"
"What are you talking about?" Mu Jinyu retorted. "I'm not that kind of person. Just like if you were sick, I would also treat you for free."
Gu Xiyan sneered, "But when you used to charge , I didn't see your hands trembling then?"
Mu Jinyu explained calmly, "That was before, when you were the employer and I was just your fake boyfriend who took your money. Now it's different, now I'm your boss, you're my employee, and if you got sick, of course I wouldn't charge you!"
Gu Xiyan felt she couldn't out-argue him and was thinking about how to refute Mu Jinyu's words.
But suddenly Mu Jinyu asked, "Are you jealous? Can't stand to see taking too much care of Sister Qiaoxia?"
Gu Xiyan tensed up, a flush involuntarily rising on her cheeks as she gripped the steering wheel and muttered, "Who... who's jealous of you? I'm just afraid she'll be deceived by you!"
Mu Jinyu looked at Gu Xiyan, saying with a smile that was not quite a smile, "Deceived her? I cured her father of renal failure, which at the very least saved them one million yuan, so how could it be deceiving her?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiyan felt like he was right—Lin Qiaoxia had been benefitting from the start to the finish while with Mu Jinyu and had not suffered any losses.
Besides, even if Lin Qiaoxia was being deceived by Mu Jinyu, with the way she acted, she seed sowhat willing. So what did that make of her own situation?
After a few monts of confusion, Gu Xiyan looked at Mu Jinyu and demanded, "Then if you want to be with her, what about Wen Rou? How can you do this to Wen Rou?!"
Mu Jinyu hesitated, but eventually he sighed deeply and confessed frankly, "I'm sorry, but I'm just a scumbag! I don't want to give up anything, I want it all!"
Gu Xiyan felt her heart block up and ran out of words to say.
What could she say, curse at him for a being deadbeat? Disgusting? Shaless?
But hadn't he admitted he was a jerk, wanting to have his cake and eat it too?
Should she go tell Wen Rou to stay away from him?
But given how compliant Wen Rou was with Mu Jinyu, it's likely that even if she knew the truth, she would just suffer silently and not leave him.
The more Gu Xiyan thought, the more suffocated she felt in her heart, and it was extrely uncomfortable.
Mu Jinyu gave Gu Xiyan a glance, then averted his gaze, his tone even as he said, "In your heart, you know the truth too, you just refuse to face it."
"Hmm?" Gu Xiyan looked up, her eyes misty, and stared at Mu Jinyu.
Mu Jinyu continued, "On the day you ca ho with and saw that Wen Rou still lived in my house, you must have realized the truth. Although Wen Rou and I really have nothing at the mont, you couldn't be oblivious to the fact that the relationship between her and was never just a simple friendship, let alone an employer and nanny situation..."
Gu Xiyan pursed her lips, silent.
"Yet you still moved in, claiming you didn't want to see Wen Rou jump into a fire pit, but it's clearly you who can't bear to leave , believing you could take away from her. Your self-deceiving attitude is what truly threw you into the fire pit."
As Mu Jinyu spoke, he looked up at Gu Xiyan, continuing calmly, "Now that it's out in the open, you still have a chance. Hurry up and leave , then you'll be out of the fire pit. Otherwise, the more you sink, the harder it'll beco to leave in the end!"
Gu Xiyan didn't move or open the car door to flee, covering her face!
She looked at Mu Jinyu with resentful eyes, stubbornly silent.
Mu Jinyu exchanged glances with her several tis, then guiltily shifted his gaze away, feeling sowhat remorseful.
Gu Xiyan quietly watched Mu Jinyu, and soon a single clear tear slid down from the corner of her eye.
Her eyes were red as she whispered to herself, "If I leave you, where can I go? Kneel before the Gu Family and return ho? Or seek out my best friend who can barely take care of herself? Haha..."
After speaking, Gu Xiyan leaned heavily against the back of the chair, her entire body seeming to have been drained of all strength, her gaze hollow, like a lifeless paper flower.
Although she was unwilling to admit it, Gu Xiyan actually knew that she had fallen for Mu Jinyu in a rather pathetic way, even though she knew about his ambiguous relationships with many others, she still did not want to leave him!
But now, as Mu Jinyu made his feelings clear, she could no longer avoid confronting the truth, nor could she continue to deceive herself!
"I'm sorry!" Mu Jinyu said, looking at Gu Xiyan in her state, he sighed lightly, pulled out a tissue, and extended it to her, gently wiping away her tears with tender movents.
As a result of Mu Jinyu's gentle and compassionate gestures, Gu Xiyan's eyes gradually regained so vitality. Then she thought about how her current wretched state was entirely due to Mu Jinyu.
Gu Xiyan took a deep breath, glared fiercely at Mu Jinyu, and then pounced on him, biting hard into his shoulder.
"Hiss!"
Gu Xiyan bit down firmly, and it was so painful that Mu Jinyu grimaced, but he did not move away or push Gu Xiyan off; instead, he let her bite his shoulder and vent her emotions.
For a good while.
Finally, Gu Xiyan let go, buried her head in Mu Jinyu's chest, and sobbed accusingly, "You just know how to bully ! Wuu wuu wuu..."
Mu Jinyu held her shoulders and patted her back gently, knowing that Gu Xiyan had made up her mind, he said with a smile, "Don't you like being bullied by ?!"
"No... I don't!" Gu Xiyan said without hesitation.
Mu Jinyu sighed, "Then I'll go and bully Wen Rou instead!"
"You dare!"
Hearing Mu Jinyu say this, Gu Xiyan suddenly looked up, glaring at Mu Jinyu fiercely, her Tiger Teeth grinding, ready to take another bite at him!
Mu Jinyu saw Gu Xiyan raising her head, her eyes slightly reddened, her expression "ferocious," and he found it rather adorable. He couldn't resist leaning in and captured her two lips.
"Mmm..." Get full chapters from NoveI-Fire.ɴet
Gu Xiyan imdiately widened her eyes, but could not make a sound.
At first, her body tensed up, then relaxed, no longer resisting, but instead savoring the warmth of this mont with Mu Jinyu.
Greedy to respond.
After a while.
Mu Jinyu felt Gu Xiyan was struggling to breathe, so he finally released her.
After all, there was plenty of ti ahead, and she couldn't escape him now.
"Huff, huff..."
After catching her breath a few tis, Gu Xiyan felt her heart, which had nearly jumped out of her throat, settling back into place.
She looked up at Mu Jinyu with her large, watery eyes, and said indignantly, "This ti... I don't think I made a bet with you, nor did I lose to you, did I? Why did you kiss again?!"
"Didn't like it?" Mu Jinyu asked with a smile.
"No..."
Gu Xiyan was about to deny her true feelings again when Mu Jinyu moved in once more.
"Mmm..."
