Tao An and Gu Xiao bought a lot of vegetables in the vegetable market together.

Tao An didn't have many friends, and there were few guests at home, so when Gu Xiao came, Tao An wanted to treat him well.

Gu Xiao originally wanted to rush to pay, but was rejected by Tao An. How can there be any reason to let the customer spend money?

Gu Xiao didn't force it either, he just rushed to help Tao An pick up the dishes.

Tao An couldn't beat Gu Xiao, so he had to ask him to help.

Before they knew it, their hands were full of vegetables, and they were ready to go back to cook.

Tao An's eyes fell on Gu Xiao's leather shoes inadvertently, and noticed that his shoes were dirty, stained with dirty mud, and said with some distress: "Your shoes are dirty."

The shoes worn by rich people like Gu Xiao and the others are brand-name products, and a pair costs tens of thousands of dollars. If it is stained with muddy water, it is basically scrapped.

Gu Xiao glanced at the leather shoes under his feet, but there was no reaction, "It's okay, just go back and wipe them."

Tao An felt a little sorry. He remembered that when he was with Gu Haoxing in the past, Gu Haoxing would never accompany him to the vegetable market. He always felt that the vegetable market was dirty and smelly, and he couldn't get on the table.

Sometimes Tao An would be taught a lesson by Gu Haoxing when he returned home after buying vegetables that smelled bad.

He always thought that all rich people were unwilling to visit the vegetable market, but it turned out that was not the case.

It's just that Haoxing dislikes him and the vegetable market's low grade.

When the two walked out of the vegetable market, Tao An found that the luxury car parked by the side of the road was gone, and Gu Haoxing was also missing, leaving for some unknown reason.

Maybe I'm angry.

Gu Haoxing has always been reluctant for him to be with Gu Xiao. In the past, the two of them would make Gu Haoxing unhappy just by talking, let alone shopping in the vegetable market together.

It's just that now Gu Haoxing can no longer intervene in Tao An's circle of friends.

Tao An thought it would be good if Gu Haoxing was not around. In the past, the two brothers always quarreled when they met. If Gu Haoxing was still there, there would inevitably be another quarrel. At that time, he didn't know what Gu Hao would do in a hurry.

The two put the dishes in the car, drove back to the community, and began to prepare dinner.

With Gu Xiao here, the rental house was much more lively. The children seemed to like Gu Xiao very much as an uncle, and they always stretched out their little hands to grab Gu Xiao's suit when eating.

Tao An smiled and said, "The child seems to like you very much."

With a smile in his eyes, Gu Xiao hugged the child and teased him, "I like him very much too."

As he spoke, he looked up at Tao An, and said sincerely, "But I like you more."

Tao An's ears were hot, he didn't know how to respond to Gu Xiao, he pretended to lower his head to eat, avoiding Gu Xiao's affectionate eyes.

The two had a big dinner together, and it was already dark outside.

Gu Xiao was about to go back, Tao An sent him to the gate of the community, and asked him to send him a text message to report his safety when he got home.

After all, it would take several hours to drive back here, and it was late at night, so Tao An was always worried.

Gu Xiao said yes, he didn't rush to leave, he looked into Tao An's eyes under the night, and said seriously: "Little sister-in-law, what I told you before will always be valid, as long as you think it over, I can send you away at any time." Take it with the child and take good care of you."

Tao An looked at Gu Xiao's expectant eyes, and did not respond as usual. He knew that Gu Xiao was sincere to him, but he really didn't want to have anything to do with the Gu family anymore.

And if they were really together, with Gu Haoxing's temper, they would definitely not let it go, maybe it would even implicate Gu Xiao.

Seeing that Tao An didn't respond, Gu Xiao wasn't surprised. He was ready to fight a protracted war. Sooner or later, Tao An would see that he was sincere.

After watching Gu Xiao drive away, Tao An went back to the rental house.

He had just finished tidying up the kitchen when there was a knock on the door of the rental house. He thought it was Gu Xiao who forgot to take something and turned back, so he wiped his hands on the apron and opened the door.

It turned out that the person outside the door was not Gu Xiao, but Gu Haoxing.

He stood staggeringly at the door, as if he had drunk a lot, and Tao An could smell the alcohol on him from a long distance away.

Tao An subconsciously wanted to close the door, but Gu Haoxing quickly elbowed it against it, and the pungent smell of alcohol became stronger.

Gu Haoxing glanced at the room at this time, the small room was clear at a glance, and there was no second person, he snorted from his nose, and said in an unclear tone: "My brother is gone?"

Tao An firmly gripped the doorknob, "What's the matter?"

The blood in Gu Haoxing's eyes became thicker, and he sneered, "My brother can come to you if he has nothing to do, but I can't?"

Tao An heard Gu Haoxing's yin and yang tone very harsh, and he didn't want to continue talking with him, he tried hard to close the door, but Gu Haoxing pushed it back with more force, and said without thinking: "You like my brother too? "

Tao An was subconsciously terrified of the drunk Gu Haoxing, frowned and said, "I don't need to explain to you."

Gu Haoxing was persistent, grabbed Tao An's wrist, and his voice seemed to come out of his teeth, "The illegitimate child must have confessed to you, right? You agreed?"

Tao An wanted to withdraw his arm in a panic, "I don't understand what you're talking about."

Gu Haoxing stroked Tao An's cheek with one hand, and unpredictable emotions rolled in his dark eyes, "Tao An, except for me, you don't want to be with other men in your life, who dares to snatch away from me?" If you leave me, I will be rude to him."

Dissatisfied with Gu Haoxing's desire to control, Tao An turned his head slightly and avoided Gu Haoxing's hand, "We are divorced, and whoever I stay with is my freedom."

This sentence was exactly the same as what Gu Xiao said in the evening. Gu Haoxing felt a strong sourness in his heart, and showed a mocking and dangerous smile, "You and Gu Xiao really have a good understanding."

Tao An didn't know where he got the strength to break free and fight back. Before Gu Haoxing could react, he closed the door forcefully, and leaned against his class with some strength.

Gu Haoxing didn't leave the door, but a low and dangerous voice came through the door, "I know you are interested in that illegitimate child, just wait, I will make it impossible for him to harass you again."

Gu Haoxing left behind these thoughtless words, and there was no movement outside. Tao An quietly opened the door and took a look. He still didn't understand what Gu Haoxing meant by these words, but he had a bad premonition faintly in his heart. .

As soon as Gu Xiao left, the room became quiet again. He cleaned up the house early and went to bed.

He waited for a long time, Gu Xiao never sent him a message, Tao An calculated the time, Gu Xiao should have arrived home by this time.

Tao An thought it might be that Gu Xiao was too tired to drive home, so he forgot to send him a message.

Maybe when Gu Xiao thinks about it, he will tell him that he is safe.

Thinking of this, Tao An was relieved a lot, and went to bed to rest after the child was settled.

Because he worked late the next day, it was rare for Tao An to sleep in late. When he woke up, it was almost nine o'clock. He subconsciously turned on his phone and checked. The text message database and communication records were empty.

Gu Xiao didn't send him a message all night.

In the past, Gu Xiao would always report his safety when he got home. Even if Gu Xiao was too tired to get home last night and forgot, it is impossible not to contact him the next day.

Tao An had a vague premonition in his heart that it was not easy to use. He was worried that something might happen, so he called Gu Xiao during his break at work.

No one answered the first call, but at least the phone was not turned off, Tao An breathed a sigh of relief.

If it is not turned off, it should mean that nothing happened.

Tao An then made a second call, and this time the call was connected, but the person who answered the call was not Gu Xiao, but a strange female voice.

Before Tao An could react, the person on the opposite side spoke first, "May I ask who you are?"

Tao An thought it was Gu Xiao's secretary or assistant, and immediately said, "Hi, I'm Gu Xiao's friend, is Gu Xiao there?"

"Gu Xiao?" The other end of the phone paused, and said as if he had come to his senses, "Oh, you mean the patient? He was injured a little and is recuperating in the hospital now."

Tao An was taken aback, "Injured by...?"

"Yes, the patient collided with another car while driving, and the injury is not clear, and he has not woken up yet."

When Tao An heard this, his heart thumped and almost jumped out of his throat.

How could Gu Xiao get hurt when he was so good?

Tao An didn't have time to think about it, he hurriedly asked the other party for the address of the hospital, and wrote it down on a note.

Seeing Tao An rushing into the rest room to pack his things, Guo Jiayue followed, "What's wrong with you, you look so ugly."

Tao An's face was full of anxiety, "My friend is injured, I'm going to the hospital to see him."

Guo Jiayue frowned, "But you are on the evening shift today, and it's not time to get off work yet."

Only then did Tao An think of him today

Seeing that his eyes were flushed with anxiety, Guo Jiayue was taken aback for a moment, and said softly, "Forget it, I will work overtime for you today, you can go quickly."

Tao An paused, "Really?"

Guo Jiayue curled her lips, "Can I still lie to you, you can make it up later."

Tao An was grateful and guilty, thanked Guo Jiayue again and again, and ran out of the convenience store with the child in his arms.

When he came to the side of the road, he saw a taxi approaching from a distance, and was about to raise his hand to stop it, when a familiar car suddenly stopped in front of him.

When the car window fell, Gu Haoxing's face was revealed.

Tao An is not in the mood to pay attention to him now, and is going to stop the car when he goes around the front of the car, when Gu Haoxing's voice comes from behind, "Are you going to the hospital to see Gu Xiao?"

Tao An paused when he was hailing a car, and looked back at Gu Haoxing in doubt, "You, do you know about Gu Xiao's injury?"

Gu Haoxing hummed heavily.

Tao An thought that Gu Haoxing had been notified by the Gu family, when the taxi arrived, Tao An reported the address to the driver, and was about to board the taxi.

As soon as he opened the car door, his wrist was grabbed by a hand stretched out from behind. Gu Haoxing said in a low voice, "You don't need to go, he is not seriously injured."

Tao An frowned, "How do you know?"

With Gu Haoxing's attitude of hating Gu Xiao, it is impossible to take the initiative to care about his injuries.

Gu Haoxing didn't speak, his deep and gloomy eyes reflected Tao An's fair face.

Tao An looked at Gu Haoxing's expression, what Gu Haoxing said last night suddenly flashed in his mind, and he remembered that the nurse said that Gu Xiao had a car accident because he collided with a car. An ominous premonition surrounded his body instantly.

Tao An's lips trembled violently, and he said in disbelief: "What happened to Gu Xiao, did you do it?"
