Chapter 174 The Poor Little One Living Under Someone Else’s Roof (21)

"Hey?"

"Where are you and why haven't you answered the phone?"

After Mu Zhou dialed the number, the other party picked up the phone almost immediately, followed by questioning.

Lu Yan listened and his eyes darkened. He took Mu Zhou's phone and spoke slowly and softly:

"She's busy and can't answer."

The familiar man's voice made Gu Qingli instantly furious. He gritted his teeth and warned him:

"Lu Yan..."

"If you feel uncomfortable, go to the hospital. It's no use looking for Zhou Zhou."

Without waiting for Gu Qingli to say anything, Mu Zhou snatched the phone back: "Wait for me half an hour, I'll come to you and we can have a good chat."

She hung up the phone and got up to get dressed.

She didn't plan to continue cooperating with Gu Qingli in acting out the amnesia drama.

Although Lu Yan didn't want her to meet Gu Qingli, he also understood that if the entanglement between the two could not be made clear, Gu Qingli would probably continue to pester Mu Zhou and use the past favors to hold her hostage.

He persuaded himself to accept it, and like a bullied wife, he helped Mu Zhou get new clothes with his upper body naked: "Go wash up first."

He suddenly felt a little depressed.

They were clearly very close just an hour ago, but now he had to help her get dressed and go meet another man.

He looked obviously aggrieved, which made Mu Zhou suddenly feel as if he had just pulled up his pants and ignored him.

Looking at Lu Yan who was like a well-behaved little wolfdog, she smiled helplessly and ruffled his hair:

"Be good, I'm just going to talk to him clearly."

Lu Yan lowered his head obediently and let her rub his head:

"Then I have to come along, otherwise I won't feel at ease."

"it is good."

When Gu Qingli saw Mu Zhou and Lu Yan coming together, there was not much surprise on his face.

He seemed to have an injury on his leg, and his face was eerily calm.

The caregiver was tactful enough to prepare to go out, leaving the three of them alone.

Gu Qingli and Mu Zhou went to the study, while Lu Yan was staring at the living room with a cold face, looking at the study from time to time with annoyance.

How long will we talk?

In the study, Gu Qingli looked at Mu Zhou, who seemed to have just taken a shower, and a chill gradually appeared in his eyes.

She was wearing a simple loose sweater and a pair of jeans. Her half-wet hair was tied behind her head with a hairpin. Her plain little face was not made up, and her whole body exuded an attractive laziness.

The collar of the sweater is not big, but you can still vaguely see some red marks on the fair skin.

He didn't want to think about what Mu Zhou was doing just now, nor did he want to ask why Lu Yan answered her call. He would rather deceive himself and think that she might have just come from the dormitory.

But his clenched fists and clenched teeth revealed that he was not calm at the moment.

He hesitated to speak, as if that would erase everything.

Mu Zhou didn't want to beat around the bush with him anymore.

She glanced at the new wound on Gu Qingli's knee and said in a cold voice:

"Don't do this kind of thing again in the future."

The indifference on her face added another wound to Gu Qingli's broken heart, and he couldn't help but ask:

"Don't you care about me at all? Whether I have a concussion, amnesia, or am I injured, it doesn't matter to you? You clearly loved me before, how can you just say you don't love me anymore?"

Mu Zhou looked at him calmly, his words calm and collected: "But aren't all these injuries of yours inflicted on yourself on purpose?"

Gu Qingli was stunned.

Mu Zhou continued to speak slowly:

"You're willing to let yourself get hurt so badly because you regret it and want everything to go back to how it was before. But Gu Qingli, don't you really think you're being selfish and cowardly? You even have to use your amnesia to admit that you like me. You don't really like me that much, it's just a choice made after weighing the pros and cons."

Whether it was admitting to his parents that he liked her or refusing a blind date, Gu Qingli only dared to express it when he was seriously injured due to amnesia, as if in this way, no one would blame him and he would not have to take responsibility.

When these secret thoughts were exposed by Mu Zhou, Gu Qingli's face turned pale in an instant, making it impossible for him to hide.

When he caught a glimpse of the open drawer beside him, he hurriedly took out the letters like a drowning man grabbing a lifebuoy:

"Zhou Zhou, I know I was too cowardly before, but my love for you is genuine."

These were the confession letters he had written on Mu Zhou's birthday over the years, but he had never sent them out.

He thought that even if Mu Zhou blamed him, he would still feel a little bit of pity for him when he saw these loving letters.

But Mu Zhou just glanced at the letters and didn't even read them.

"No matter what, that's all in the past. From the day you decided to reject me, there's no need to bring out these things you dare not show anyone anymore."

She stood up and looked down at Gu Qingli:

"In the future, I hope we can restore our normal brother-sister relationship. If you feel embarrassed, I will tell my aunt that I will move out of the Gu family."

Looking at her resolute back, Gu Qingli regretted his decision.

If he could be braver and more decisive, would Mu Zhou not have thrown himself into Lu Yan's arms?

Obviously, he and Mu Zhou grew up together and had feelings for each other, but he messed it up.

He sat in the chair, gradually becoming dimmer.

When Mu Zhou came out of the study, he saw Lu Yan, who was full of resentment.

With a cold face, he walked up to her and took her hand:

"Can you walk?"

"Let's go."

Mu Zhou nodded, hooked his fingers around his and shook them comfortingly.

In fact, she had been dragging her feet and not explaining things clearly to Gu Qingli, which was also intentional.

In the original plot, before Gu Qingli accepted Jiang Yun'er's confession, he had always been distant towards the original owner, making it impossible for her to give up completely, which led to her falling deeper and deeper.

That's why Mu Zhou allowed him to hurt himself continuously, leaving wounds all over his body, so that he could more or less understand the suffering the original owner had gone through before.

I wanted to let him suffer for a while longer, but Lu Yan was too jealous.

He clung to her tightly, expressing his dissatisfaction with both grievance and venting, like a wounded little wolfhound seeking favor, constantly coveting her favor.

Mu Zhou was soft-hearted, so he had to explain everything to Gu Qingli in advance so that he could feel at ease.

Gu Qingli returned to Qing City quickly.

Not long after, Mu Zhou heard from Gu's mother that he had recovered his memory.

Their university life went much smoother after that, until they graduated and returned to Qing City.

On this day, Mu Zhou and Lin Mengyi went to attend the wedding of an old classmate, but unexpectedly they met an acquaintance there, the heroine of the plane, Zhong Mansheng.

Ever since Gu Qingli canceled the blind date due to amnesia, the two have lost contact and did not have a business marriage like in the original world.

The scene was a little awkward when I saw her, as she seemed to be catching someone cheating.

Mu Zhou just drank a little too much at the banquet and wanted to go back to the room he had booked in advance to rest, but who knew he would encounter such a lively scene.

At this time, two women and one man were fighting in the hotel corridor.

Mu Zhou stood aside, looking embarrassed but curious inside, not knowing whether to leave or look.
