The love is so deep that Mr. Gu is crazy

After sending Shen Li back to the temporary rental apartment, Huo Mingcheng did not leave immediately.

He half-knelt beside the sofa, opened the newly bought ointment, but his outstretched hand stopped before it touched Shen Li's arm.

He took it back and handed the cotton swab with ointment to Shen Li.

Shen Li found it a little funny that he was so overly cautious and helpless.

She pulled at her sleeve to hide the marks on her wrist.

"How can you be so delicate? You will be fine after a good sleep."

Huo Mingcheng still maintained his posture and stretched the cotton swab forward. "Don't be so ignorant of taking care of yourself. Be obedient."

Shen Li sighed helplessly, took the cotton swab, and gently applied the ointment on his wrist. It felt cool and very comfortable.

After wiping it, she stretched out her hand in front of him and shook it, "Is it okay now? No wonder Xiaoyu always says that you are the most difficult person in the family."

Huo Mingcheng took the used cotton swab from her hand, threw it into the trash can, and then cleaned up the ointment on the coffee table.

"It seems like you guys have been saying bad things about me behind my back."

"No."

After packing up, Huo Mingcheng stood up and sat at the other end of the sofa, farthest away from Shen Li, with a serious expression.

"If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have agreed to let you come back alone."

"Don't you think you guys have protected me too well? I'm not made of paper. Besides, some things have to be resolved. Can you help me get a divorce?"

Huo Mingcheng frowned, not daring to think about what kind of fear and helplessness Shen Li experienced when the red marks appeared on her hands.

"Then you don't have to go back to him, do you know..."

I'm worried about you!

Huo Mingcheng's tone was a little excited, but when he saw Shen Li's bewildered eyes, he stopped in time and didn't say the rest for fear of scaring her.

She lowered her head, clenched her hands, and then let go, her voice softened: "I'm worried about you living here alone. If you're afraid of disturbing Xiaoqin's family, come back to the Huo family with me."

Shen Li poured him a glass of water and said, "I'm not going. This is just a temporary rental. I'm not going to live here forever. I'll be back soon."

"Since you won't be staying here long, there's no need for you to live here alone. I'll go help you with your luggage."

As he said that, he stood up and went to get Shen Li's things.

"Huo Mingcheng!"

Shen Li was a little annoyed. She was wearing flat slippers and was much shorter than Huo Mingcheng. When she looked at him, she had to tilt her head back with her eyes wide open to show her dissatisfaction.

"That's the Huo family."

She is not someone's pampered canary.

"That's your home too." Huo Mingcheng's reaction was really a bit too much.

After a pause, he felt that he was being too strong and inappropriate, so he immediately said, "What I mean is that your godmother is worried. If she knew..."

"Godmother, godmother! Godmother will cause you trouble, right?"

"You can't explain this to your godmother, right?"

"It's the same every time. Your excuses are terrible! She's so far away, how would you know if you're not her?"

Huo Mingcheng was speechless, his embarrassment of being exposed was clearly revealed.

Shen Li was full of vigor, "I am an adult and I can take care of myself, and it has been so many years since the incident..."

As Shen Li spoke, his breathing became rapid and his body felt weak.

Huo Mingcheng frowned in worry, took a step forward and then stopped, clenching his fists and forcing himself to stop moving forward.

Had she forgotten it long ago? How could she forget it so easily?

Shen Li calmed down, exhaled, and continued: "I will eventually get out of this by myself. It's okay. I can do it. Believe me."

A stubborn smile appeared on his face, which made people feel distressed.

He sat back on the sofa, picked up the water that Shen Li poured for him and drank it all.

Pretending to be relaxed, he said, "Okay, as you say."

"Ding dong!"

The doorbell rang at this time, and Huo Mingcheng stood up to open the door.

Shen Li was puzzled, and at the same time, his heart was tense. Who was it? It was so late at night.

As soon as the door opened, Xie Xiaoqin jumped in like a rabbit and hugged her tightly.

"Ali, are you okay?"

Shen Li was so shocked that he couldn't breathe, but Huo Mingcheng was standing at the entrance changing his shoes very calmly. It was obvious that he was the one who sent someone to do it.

"Now that people are here, I'll go back first. You guys should get some rest early."

As he said that, he walked out, leaving the space for the two of them.

"Does He Xiaobao know that you are out so late?" Shen Li pulled Xie Xiaoqin's arm away to allow himself to catch his breath.

Xie Xiaoqin let her go abruptly and angrily lectured her: "I haven't said anything to you yet. You've really grown up. What did you say before you came back? You won't have any more contact with him."

"You, on the other hand, went to this company without telling me and became his assistant. You are out of your mind!"

As he said this, he poked Shen Li's head with his index finger, as if he wanted to pry her head open.

He pulled up her wrist with heartache, blew on it, and rubbed it carefully.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hide it from you, it just happened suddenly..."

"Don't try to fool me with these words. Call and quit this crappy job right now."

Shen Li pursed his lips, stiffened his neck and shook his head.

She can't leave now because the formalities have not been completed. Who knows how Gu Jingcheng will make things difficult for Xie Xiaoqin one day.

And now that he is relieved, he will agree to go through the formalities. Shen Li doesn't want the two of them to meet in court. If Gu Zhengrong in heaven knew about this, he would be so sad.

Xie Xiaoqin was so angry that she pinched her temples and walked around the room again and again.

She knew Shen Li's personality, so she compromised and said, "Then pack your things right now and come back with me."

No one feels comfortable with Shen Li living alone outside. Thinking about what happened four years ago, he feels scared.

Shen Li smiled guiltily, and the meaning was self-evident: she would not leave.

After so many years, no one knew Shen Li's temper better than her. Xie Xiaoqin didn't waste any more words, threw her bag on the sofa, and rolled up her sleeves.

"Where is the bathroom? Find me a set of pajamas so I can wash up and go to bed early."

"I have to go back to the company for a meeting tomorrow morning, remember to set an alarm for me~"

In this way, Xie Xiaoqin stayed overnight at Shen Li's place.

The next morning, Xie Xiaoqin went out very early because the company was far away.

Shen Li also packed up and prepared to go out. When he opened the door, he was startled by the person standing at the door.
