520 Picking up garbage and marrying into a wealthy family

Just now, we were outside and the lighting was limited, so the redness and swelling that Gu Lingyan saw was just the "tip of the iceberg".

After rolling up his sleeves, he discovered that the injured area was even larger than it looked. The entire shoulder was covered with horrific bruises. The purple and red marks on the fair skin made it even more frightening.

"Hiss! Oh my God! It's so serious!"

Gu Shaoyu, who had just wiped An An's paws, came over and saw that Xiang Huanian's shoulder was severely red and swollen, and he couldn't help but exclaim.

But after seeing the backpack still tightly held in Xiang Huanian's arms, Gu Shaoyu accused:

"That's not right, brother. It's so uncomfortable for my little sister to hold a bag. Don't you know to take the bag and put it away? Come on, little sister, give it to me. I'll put the things away for you."

Gu Shaoyu pretended to reach out and take the bag from Xiang Huanian's arms and Lele, who was already drowsy in the bag.

Xiang Huanian, however, seemed to have her tail stepped on, and her fur instantly exploded. She quickly stretched out her right hand and waved it away:

"No, no! This is fine for me!"

It looked as if the bag in his arms contained priceless treasures.

however.

Quick.

Inexplicable.

Gu Lingyan thought of a book he had read somewhere a long time ago that said:

Generally speaking, after washing up at night, women don’t have the habit of sleeping in their underwear...

Sensing a possibility, Gu Lingyan's fingertips paused, and the hand holding the medicated oil tightened involuntarily, and the tip of his ear quickly turned a hint of red.

Seeing the little girl's embarrassment, and also because when I helped her up earlier, I didn't feel any traces of clothing on her back with my palm...

Gu Lingyan's guess was even more certain. He put his fist to his lips, coughed uncomfortably, and said:

"Hey, Shao Yu, go clean up the sunny guest room on the first floor...it's hard to wash after applying the medicated oil."

Gu Lingyan stared at Gu Shaoyu and said seriously.

"Huh? Oh, okay."

Although Gu Shaoyu didn't understand, he did as he was told.

Even before leaving, he was still muttering to himself, "Isn't it uncomfortable to hold the medicine?"

Gu Lingyan almost watched Gu Shaoyu walk into the guest room and start cleaning. After slowly exhaling, he moved his gaze to Xiang Huanian.

Ok……

The little girl's neck was completely red.

Gu Lingyan shifted his gaze again, moving to An An who was leaning against Xiang Huanian's feet, and said carefully:

"...You can't take a shower now. Just wipe it down briefly later. I'll apply the medicated oil to you when you're done."

"……OK."

Just now, Mr. Gu had been holding her back at the fire scene to help her maintain her balance, and he hadn't even asked her to put down her backpack when he was applying the medicine...

Hey!

He definitely noticed it!

Today is her unlucky day!

Everything goes wrong!

Xiang Huanian screamed silently in his heart, and his fingertips, which were holding the backpack with such force, turned white.

then.

The two self-proclaimed unlucky guys remained in such awkward silence in the living room until Gu Shaoyu finished cleaning up the guest room and came out.

"I've packed it up, little sister, can you go in and see if there's anything missing?"

It’s called tidying up, but in fact it just means taking out the quilts and pillowcases from the cabinet.

"Oh, okay, here I come."

As if hearing the heavenly sound of salvation, Xiang Huanian looked up and replied loudly.

Xiang Huanian stood up with the help of the sofa, limping slowly towards Gu Shaoyu.

Gu Lingyan, who was standing behind, reached out to help Xiang Huanian the moment he stood up, but just before touching Xiang Huanian, he seemed to be burned by something and suddenly withdrew his hand.

"Hey, brother, please hold on a little. Can't you see that my little sister can't even walk steadily?"

Because of his position, Gu Shaoyu did not see Gu Lingyan retract his hand, and he didn't know who gave him the courage to denounce Gu Lingyan in such a mean way.

Xiang Huanian: “…”

No, my friend, although I appreciate you speaking up for me, can you please shut up?

"Haha, no need, I can walk by myself."

Xiang Huanian laughed dryly twice and was the first to reject Gu Shaoyu's suggestion.

But the next moment, footsteps were heard behind him, and his uninjured right hand was lifted up by Gu Lingyan.

"Let's go, it's better to be safe."

Xiang Huanian heard the people around him say this.

"The air conditioner remote is here. If it's too cold, you can adjust the temperature yourself... Keep the curtains closed at night. Although you can't see inside during the day, you can see clearly when the lights are on... Our aunt washes and dries the sheets and pillows regularly, so they're very clean... The bathroom is here. We have towels and toiletries. Is there anything else you need?"

Gu Shaoyu introduced the facilities in the room to Xiang Huanian like a professional real estate salesperson.

Xiang Huanian stood in the center of the room. After following Gu Shaoyu around, her eyes fell on the huge mirror and the high sink in the bathroom. After hesitating for a moment, she asked:

"Um, is there a higher stool? I can't stand while I wash up..."

"Oh, that's right. Your feet are not convenient. I'll go outside and bring a stool over."

Gu Shaoyu touched the back of his head, and seeing that Xiang Huanian was having difficulty moving, he realized the necessity of a stool. He walked out of the guest room and went to find a suitable stool for Xiang Huanian.

As for Gu Lingyan, after helping Xiang Huanian stand firmly in the room, he looked at Xiang Huanian's bare feet, frowned, said he was going out to get something, and then disappeared.

So, now in the room, Xiang Huanian is the only one, oh, and An An and Le Le.

But at least there were no other humans.

Finally, he was the only one left in the private space. Xiang Huanian slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and his stiff back also relaxed.

"Hey - what a day it's been..."

Xiang Huanian's hands fell on An An's back intermittently. The soft touch made Xiang Huanian's mind, which had been tense since the fire, feel much more relaxed.

"Meow~"

After realizing that the surrounding environment was safe, Lele in the backpack came out. He raised his little head and meowed at Xiang Huanian.

"Oh, I almost forgot about you. I'll let you out now."

Xiang Huanian took out Lele, who had been staying obediently in the bag, and carried her to the soft bed.

Lele sniffed here and there, found a place next to the pillow, turned around twice, curled up, and then lay down.

Xiang Huanian sat on the edge of the bed with empty eyes, as if he was staring at Lele, but also as if not, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"We don't have any other slippers at home. You can use these for now. I'll have someone send a suitable pair over tomorrow."

Gu Lingyan came back with a pair of gray slippers in his hand. He squatted down and placed them at Xiang Huanian's feet. After hesitating for a moment, he raised his eyes and asked:

"Do you have a change of clothes?"

------

Irresponsible little theater.

Xiang Huanian put one hand on his waist, pointed at Gu Lingyan, and asked a soul-searching question:

"You must have noticed I wasn't wearing anything a long time ago, right!?"

Gu Lingyan dodged his gaze, his eyes drifting, his aura was rarely weak:

"...Actually, it wasn't a long time ago. I was too busy with the situation at the time, so I only discovered it later..."

Xiang Huanian: “…” Aa ...
