Gu Qinghan didn't know that his actions would cause serious harm to Yan Qi.
He felt that he was not exerting any force at all.
His behavior towards Yan Qi was much lighter than the abuse his adoptive mother had given him when he was a child.
The adoptive mother would pull out his hair so hard that even a piece of his scalp would be pulled off. When she was in a bad mood, she would burn his arms with cigarette butts.
Gu Qinghan's slender arms hidden in her clothes were all covered with cigarette scars, one next to another, densely packed and crowded.
As time passed, Gu Qinghan's pain became numb and he didn't even feel pain. As long as he could fill his stomach, he didn't mind being burned a few more times.
Therefore, he was completely unaware of the harm he had caused to Yan Qi.
From Gu Qinghan's point of view, it was not bad that he never restricted the freedom of speech, would make sure she was well fed, and would indulge her requests that were not excessive.
It's because she's greedy and can't satisfy her desires!
Gu Qinghan had never realized this problem before. He and Cheng Yanqi were different.
He thought seriously for a moment and suddenly said: "I'm sorry, I will pay attention to it."
Yan Qi???
Hey, Uncle Gu actually said sorry to her? It's really strange.
She turned her head around and looked at Gu Qinghan for a long time, then she couldn't help but call out tentatively: "Fu sister?"
Yan Qi immediately covered his lips with both hands and shook his head vigorously: "Don't say it, don't say it, I won't say it anymore."
In order to ease the atmosphere, Yan Qi thought for a while and said, "To be fair, I will also tell you my nickname."
Gu Qinghan seemed to be interested. He looked at Yan Qi with his black moon eyes and motioned for her to continue.
"My name comes from Tao Li, so my nickname is also related to this. Can you guess, Uncle Gu?"
Gu Qinghan raised his eyebrows: "Peach and plum?"
"That's not right." Yan Qi shook his head.
Gu Qinghan only guessed once and then refused to guess again.
Yan Qi encouraged him: "Guess again, my nickname is also very strange. Old people say that nicknames make a living, so they gave me one too."
Hearing this, Gu Qinghan became a little interested. Could it be that Cheng Yanqi's nickname was the same as his, picked from the cheap Wan Nian Calendar?
He didn't know Cheng Yanqi's birth date, but he only remembered that she was the same age as Xia Ning and more than ten days older than Xia Ning, which was August.
"Fugen?" Gu Qinghan guessed.
"No, no, no." Yan Qi shook his head, "Guess what's wrong."
"Shagen?"
Yan Qi covered her face: "I am a girl."
"Tugen?"
I am speechless, this is because I have something to do with the roots.
"There is no root, 'a peach or a plum without saying anything will make its own mistakes.' Guess from here, it sounds a bit ugly, a bit girly." Yan Qi tried hard to remind.
Worse than Shagen Tugen? Gu Qinghan felt a little sorry for Yan Qi. Her nickname was so ugly.
He couldn't guess anymore.
"Okay." Yan Qi said, "Then I'll tell you."
Gu Qinghan tilted her ears to hear how unpleasant it was, but she finally heard her say, "Guo Guo."
"Isn't it hard to hear?"
Gu Qinghan: "..."
Yan Qi nodded: "I think I can compete with Fu Mei."
"Cheng Yanqi!" Gu Qinghan finally understood that this dead girl was teasing him on purpose.
"Hahaha." Yan Qi couldn't hold it in any longer and fell down on the sofa laughing.
The girl smiled brightly and wantonly. She didn't understand the reserve of girls at all, so she almost rolled on the sofa.
But this laughter inexplicably infected Gu Qinghan.
Unknowingly, he also raised the corners of his mouth.
"Guoguo?" Gu Qinghan read it in her mouth.
He rarely speaks in such a gentle tone, with a deep and pleasant tone that is so lingering that he chants the word "Guoguo" with a lingering flavor.
"Why haven't you heard of it? Has anyone ever called you that?"
"You have a nickname, of course you have never heard of it." Yan Qi said rationally, "Just like I have never heard anyone call you Fu Mei."
"Enough is enough." Gu Qinghan raised his eyes, his expression not as cold as before, but still intimidating.
Yan Qi covered her mouth, not daring to mention the word 'lucky sister' again.
"Do you know why I am called Guoguo?" Yan Qi explained, "Because peaches and plums are both fruits, so I am called Guoguo.
However, only the people closest to me would call me that, and no one else would call me that."
Speaking of this, Yan Qi looked a little disappointed. Only her parents and grandpa would call her this. Later, even grandpa stopped calling her.
As her husband, Lu Huaichen didn't even know her nickname.
Thinking of this, Yan Qi looked at Gu Qinghan: "Besides my family, you are the first one to know my nickname. How about I be generous?
In this way, I know your nickname and you know mine, so no one of us owes the other, it’s fair!”
fair?
Gu Qinghan recited two words in her heart, and for some reason, her mood suddenly improved.
It was rare to see Gu Qinghan in a good mood, so Yan Qi decided to strike while the iron was hot and reiterate the issue of respect.
"Uncle Gu." Yan Qi put his chin in his hands and looked at Gu Qinghan seriously, "Last time, you burned my things, which was too much. Why can't we communicate peacefully? Why use the most brutal means?"
Yan Qi discovered that this Gu Qinghan didn't seem to know how to speak well.
He is used to being restrained, and will explode when he cannot restrain himself, and his methods will be rough.
This is a very bad habit. Her broken body and fragile heart cannot withstand his surprise.
Gu Qinghan's face instantly turned black and extremely ugly. He glanced at Yan Qi coldly, as if he was about to explode.
However, he quickly suppressed it and tried to calm down his emotions: "You still have the nerve to ask? Don't you know what you have done?"
"What have I done?"
Gu Qinghan frowned, his eyes were clouded, but he still pressed hard: "Xia Ning called me, crying so hard that she didn't know where she offended you, and wanted to apologize to you, but you didn't answer at all.
phone, so she asked me to apologize to you."
Speaking of this, Gu Qinghan could no longer control his temper: "Do you know how to be grateful? Xia Ning is so kind to you. She never asks you for anything and never asks for anything in return. But you, not only do you not know how to repay your kindness, but you are ungrateful.
Bully her!
I just want you to feel Xia Ning's pain."
Gu Qinghan hates white-eyed wolves and people who are ungrateful and burn bridges.
Cheng Yanqi stepped on his bad spot.
He could see how good Xia Ning was to Cheng Yanqi. It could be said that without Xia Ning, Cheng Yanqi would not be where he is today.
But Cheng Yanqi was not only dissatisfied and ungrateful, but instead repaid kindness with hatred and bullied Xia Ning.
After listening to Gu Qinghan's words, Yan Qi was not angry, nor did he show any guilt on his face. Instead, he seemed to have heard some funny joke.
Laughed out loud.
Gu Qinghan frowned, not understanding how she could still laugh.
"Uncle Gu." Yan Qi looked at him indifferently, "Aren't you curious about how I provoked her?"
