520 Picking up garbage and marrying into a wealthy family

Gu Lingyan quickly wiped his dirty hands on his clothes until there was no dirt stuck on his clothes. Then he carefully picked up Xiang Huanian's red face and wiped away the tears from the corners of Xiang Huanian's eyes. He also kept comforting him:

"Niannian, you deserve it. You deserve the best in this world. Don't blame yourself. I was injured because I'm not good at fighting. It's not your fault..."

But once the emotions that had been suppressed for so many years were released, Xiang Huanian couldn't stop even if he was crying.

Gu Lingyan, who could handle most things with ease, was flustered and incoherent, like a speechless stone. He could not stop Xiang Huanian, who was crying so hard that she was almost sobbing, from crying.

"Niannian, don't cry. If you keep crying, you..."

The boy does not cry easily.

However, seeing Xiang Huanian crying like a tearful child, Gu Lingyan's heart ached and his eyes became moist unconsciously.

Feel the pain that she feels.

Tears of heartache rolled down Gu Lingyan's eyes.

But the more gentle Gu Lingyan was to Xiang Huanian, the more Xiang Huanian couldn't stop the tears from welling up in his eyes.

When both parties are extremely emotional and rationality is thrown aside, people will always act on impulses that they have restrained countless times in normal times and can no longer suppress.

"Every year..."

Gu Lingyan slowly and carefully lifted up Xiang Huanian's cheek, which was as red as a cat's face after crying. Then, the two pairs of wet eyelids moved closer and closer, and Gu Lingyan gently kissed away the tears from the corners of Xiang Huanian's eyes.

The scorching temperature and bitterness are accompanied by a unique sweetness.

The warm and soft lips touched the trembling eyelashes and sensitive parts, as if both were electrocuted.

"It's not your fault, stop crying, okay..."

The soft whisper is like a gentle breeze and drizzle. The fine and quiet sound of rain is mixed with the brightness of the warm sun.

Before he knew it, Xiang Huanian's body, which had been shaking from crying, finally calmed down.

After crying, Xiang Huanian regained his sense of reason and his sense of shame also returned.

Xiang Huanian looked up at Gu Lingyan as he diligently wiped his tears. The corners of his eyes were red, and the tears were still wet. Tear marks crossed the distinct bone contours, flowing all the way down, past the rolling Adam's apple, and disappearing into the collarbone that could store a pool of spring water...

His eyes seemed to be burned, and Xiang Huanian was in a panic. His gaze shifted left and right, and he didn't dare to look directly at Gu Lingyan.

"?"

Gu Lingyan's attention was all on Xiang Huanian's face. Although he was aware of where Xiang Huanian's gaze was, Gu Lingyan suddenly felt like teasing him.

"you……"

however.

"Brother! Little sister! We are here to save you. Where are you——"

"Old Zhou! Zhou Ren! Why don't you surrender immediately!"

"..."

Without An An's clear directions, Captain Xing and Gu Shaoyu and the others took many detours and finally arrived late.

Hear his voice before he sees him.

Thanks to their call, Xiang Huanian felt like he was burning from his toes to the tip of his head whenever he thought back to how he cried just now.

"We are here!"

Xiang Huanian took a step back from Gu Lingyan's arms and shouted at Captain Xing and Gu Shaoyu and the others.

Gu Lingyan: “…”

In this case.

"hiss--"

It seemed that he just felt the pain in his wound now. Gu Lingyan exaggerated a little and pretended to be in pain. He covered his wound, pressed the upper and lower veins to stop the bleeding, and then staggered.

"Mr. Gu!"

Xiang Huanian really couldn't tell whether Gu Lingyan was acting or it was real, and he felt the pain belatedly.

She took a big step forward, supported Gu Lingyan's unstable body, and filled the gap she had just stepped back.

Gu Lingyan controlled the timing just right.

"Brother! Little sister——"

The next second after Xiang Huanian helped him steady himself, Captain Xing and Gu Shaoyu arrived.

"..."

The scene was different from what Gu Shaoyu and the others had imagined, where Gu Lingyan protected Xiang Huanian and confronted Lao Zhou, or Lao Zhou took Xiang Huanian hostage and confronted Gu Lingyan.

Xiang Huanian and Gu Lingyan were both fine, standing in front of them. The atmosphere between the two seemed to have a certain intimacy. Gu Lingyan was slightly injured.

Not far from them was Old Zhou lying on the ground, almost stuck in the mud, his life or death unknown, with a pool of blood covering his sensitive body.

"...Um, I'm glad you're all okay, An An!!! Are you okay?"

Gu Shaoyu walked to the side of Gu Lingyan, looking at the inexplicable sense of estrangement between Xiang Huanian and Gu Lingyan, he squatted down and started to rub An An, who was recovering on the ground, passionately.

An An, who was feeling uncomfortable from being rubbed by Gu Shaoyu without any restraint, said: "...Woof!"

I'm fine, but if you continue like this, you might be in trouble.

"Alright, alright, why are you being so distant? We're brothers who have escaped death together. Can't you let me express my feelings for you?"

Sensing An An's resistance, Gu Shaoyu loosened his grip a lot, but his "sinful" hand still did not leave An An's face. He even picked up An An from the ground like a doll.

Perhaps he had no place to vent his worries. According to the current atmosphere between Xiang Huanian and Gu Lingyan, it was impossible for Gu Shaoyu to hug either of them and express his worries, so An An became a "stand-in doll".

"An An, are you okay? I'm so worried~~~"

Captain Xing and others: "..."

Thanks to Gu Shaoyu, the stalemate at the scene showed a slight relaxation.

"...Go see how Old Zhou is doing."

"Yes."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the relationship between Xiang Huanian and Gu Lingyan is unusual, and for Captain Xing, certain details will be magnified to a certain extent.

For example, the blush on Xiang Huanian's face had not yet faded, and there was no fear or apprehension at all. It seemed that there were no sequelae that might affect his sleep or life...

Captain Xing had to admire Gu Lingyan's methods.

From then on, Captain Xing really let go of the inappropriate thoughts he had.

This was love at first sight that she didn't know about. In a corner where no one knew about it, two mature men reached a tacit silence without disturbing her or causing her any trouble.

The hidden emotions disappeared without a trace, and she was unaware of them.

Love, in unknown corners, is like dust and weeds, growing wildly... In a corner that she has never paid attention to, there was once someone who showed her love and compassion.
