But... this strong and stubborn woman who refused to admit defeat had done enough for their mother and son. She could not let her get into any more unnecessary trouble. She took note of this grudge and would one day pay it back to the Shen family with interest!
"Okay, stop it, I'll pay you later! Give me a nice apple right now."
Gu Liangyan's eyes turned from sharp to full of disgust. She put the peeled apple into Liu Xinru's hand, and promptly stopped an old aunt who ignored her words from continuing her philandering.
"You want to bribe me with an apple?"
Liu Xinru took a bite of the apple in her hand and joked. Yes, it's quite sweet!
"How? Barrister Liu?"
Gu Liangyan hid her face and smiled, then coughed slightly and asked her friend. As expected, with Liu Xinru's company, Gu Liangyan felt that her mood was better.
"Seeing that you are so sincere, I will reluctantly comply with your request."
Liu Xinru pretended to frown, with an "It's too difficult for me" expression on her face, which completely made Gu Liangyan laugh.
In her heart, as long as the target is Gu Liangyan, she is willing to trade with nothing, and apples and the like are not important.
No, Liu Xinru shook her head quickly, why did she compare herself to a wolf?!
The two sisters laughed together, but they didn't notice that little Gu An moved while lying on the bed. He seemed to hear something. He frowned slightly at first, but then relaxed naturally, and even had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
's smile.
After fussing for a while, they finally got a little tired. The panting Liu Xinru and Gu Liangyan leaned side by side on each other's backs, just like they did in college, huddled on a single bed in the cold winter, clinging to each other.
Gu Liangyan thought to herself, it turned out that so many years had passed, and her voice was very soft, so soft that only the two of them could hear it. In addition to being full of dependence, there was also unspeakable melancholy in her tone.
She said: "Xinru, my disease seems to be getting more and more likely. If one day I can't control myself, An'er will continue to trouble you..."
This is not just a casual statement. Every time Gu Liangyan's illness attacks, she will still have lingering fears when she recalls what she did when she lost her mind and was manic and restless.
Because she had a sharp weapon in her hand, and if it was meant to cut herself, she could accept it.
What she was really afraid of was that if her condition worsened, she would harm her An'er unconsciously.
This was something she didn't even dare to think about!
"I tell you Gu Liangyan, what you think is beautiful! I will not help you take care of An'er, and I don't allow you to have such thoughts! I have read Dr. Liang Qiao's resume. He is very powerful. He can definitely do it.
Let me help you get cured! Stop worrying about this unnecessary worry. You can raise your own children by yourself, and I still have hundreds of big lawsuits waiting for me!"
Liu Xinru instantly understood what Gu Liangyan meant. She immediately turned around and pulled Gu Liangyan forward. She interrupted Gu Liangyan's words in a low but firm tone.
Gu Liangyan lowered his head and said nothing, but his eye circles were red.
She explained anxiously: "But I..."
"No buts!"
"Believe me, you will definitely get better. I know where your heart is, and I have not given up on the truth back then. If I find witnesses, I will definitely help you appeal! To restore your innocence, Gu Liangyan, you have to believe me!"
Liu Xinru eagerly held Gu Liangyan's hand, trying her best to ignite the hope in Gu Liangyan's heart. Depression had tortured her friend for so many years, and she knew how much he had suffered.
