25: Chapter 25: Hit and Run_1 25: Chapter 25: Hit and Run_1 âWhat, you think my sisterâs voice is nice?â Yang Dani chuckled, âSo you remembered it?â
Gu Qingheng inexplicably felt his cheeks grow hot.
Wasnât it said that this Yang Familyâs Dani was a block of wood from whom one couldnât get a single drop of blood even with three stabs?
But the way she spoke⊠Had he actually been teased?
Yang Ruxin burst into laughter, âYouâre actually blushing.â
Gu Qingheng felt even more perplexed, âI seldom go out.
It just so happened that I overheard the lady talking to someone last time.
The ladyâs voice is indeed very clear and bright.â
Yang Ruxin suddenly felt a bit guilty; the only person who could make Yang Dani speak up in public was that Guan Qingshu.
He couldnât help but chuckle, âI was foolish beforeâŠâ
Gu Qingheng nodded, showing understanding.
âWell⊠itâs quite sunny here.
Since you no longer wish to die, shall I take you back?â Yang Ruxin quickly changed the subject, not wanting to talk about the past.
âThank you.â Gu Qingheng nodded, actually feeling quite uncomfortable sitting on the ground.
Though his legs were numb, his buttocks were irritated by the small stones.
âBig brotherâŠâ Just then, they heard someone calling out urgently.
âThat must be for you, right?â Yang Ruxin glanced at Gu Qingheng.
âYesâŠâ Gu Qingheng nodded, originally wanting to say something else, now swallowing his words back.
âSee, there are so many people who care about you.
Just imagine how sad they would have been had you died just now?â Yang Ruxin sighed lightly.
âIndeed, I was mistaken,â Gu Qingheng sighed, âI must thank Lady Dani today for awakening me from my delusionâŠâ Ever since his misfortune, his wet nurse and milk brother had been protecting him with their lives, not to mention the guards who died so he could escape.
And he⊠suddenly felt so selfish.
âYouâve already thanked me, go on nowâŠâ Yang Ruxin waved her hand.
Gu Yao quickly ran over: âBig brother, why are you sitting on the ground?â As he spoke, he picked up the other and placed him in the wheelchair, checking him over, âAre you hurt?â
Gu Qingheng shook his head.
Gu Yao immediately strode over to block Yang Daniâs path: âDid you knock my big brother to the ground?
You think you can just hit someone and leave?â
âMe?
Hit someone?â Yang Ruxin frowned, pointing to her nose in disbelief, âWhich eye of yours saw me doing it?â
âIf not you, then who?
You were the only one hereâŠâ
âArenât you a person?
Isnât he a person?â Yang Ruxin retorted sharply.
âYouâŠâ
Gu Qingheng quickly interjected: âAyao, I fell down on my own.
It was Lady Dani who helped me upâŠâ
Yang Ruxin then smiled satisfactorily, seeming fairly upright, and then glared at Gu Yao, âDid you hear that?
Donât talk nonsense without knowing the truth next time.â
Gu Yao had seen Yang Dani before and had witnessed her clinging to the Guan Familyâs boy.
He had also heard a lot of rumors in the village, so his impression of her was not good.
He then sneered, âMy big brother is a good person; maybe he was just defending you?â
âAre you looking for an argument?â Yang Ruxin was immediately displeased, âI didnât know either of you before, why would he need to defend me?
Talk about not recognizing a good heart when you see one.â She then glared at Gu Qingheng, âAnd you, next time you fall, make sure itâs far away from me, so I donât waste my efforts for no gratitudeâŠâ With that, she turned and walked away.
