The tall and thin man fell to the concrete floor with a thud, his body like a rag bag twitched a few times, his feet kicked off, his eyes closed, and dark red blood slowly flowed out from under his head.
The dog in the yard kept barking.
The bald man took advantage of the chaos and tried to escape. The police pounced on him, pushed him to the ground, took the painting away, and handcuffed him.
Su Hua still had her hands on the window frame, staring blankly at Gu Beixian who fired the gun.
After being married to him for three years, she didn't know he could shoot a gun and be so accurate.
At that critical moment just now, if the gun was fired faster or slower, or at an angle, it would be fatal to her.
Gu Beixian dropped the gun, took a long step, strode towards her, and picked her up from the window sill.
Carefully help her treat the wound on her neck.
He hugged her tightly in his arms, rubbed her face that turned pale with fright with his cold fingertips, and asked in a warm voice: "Are you scared?"
Su Hua said "hmm" in confusion.
I thought I was dead just now, but I didn't expect that I could still escape death.
My heart was beating wildly, my ears were buzzing, and the gun with a silencer was still very loud.
The whole process was as thrilling as acting in a movie.
She broke out in a cold sweat.
The ancient painting was carefully collected by the police, put into a protective bag, and then placed in a safe.
Su Hua mechanically cooperated with the police to complete the record and got into Gu Beixian's car.
Until now, my legs are still weak and my head is confused.
The night is dark and the country road is narrow.
The driver started the car and drove towards the city.
Su Hua was held in Gu Beixian's arms.
He stroked her thin back over and over again, comforting her: "It's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid."
His embrace was very warm, and Suhua instinctively hugged him, feeling sour, astringent, and a little sweet in her heart.
He still has feelings for her as a couple.
Feeling her response, Gu Beixian hugged her tighter, and a gentle voice fell to her ear, with a bit of annoyance: "Why didn't you call me when something happened? My mother-in-law is careless and she only realized something was wrong yesterday.
Then call me and tell me.”
His throat was sore, his chin was buried in her hair, his hands grabbed her clothes, and whispered: "What will happen if something happens to you?"
Su Hua was slightly startled.
At this moment, she felt that he cared about her, more than she thought.
She raised her arms, slowly hugged his waist tightly, and buried her face in the crook of his neck.
He exuded a scent that she could rely on, and that scent made her feel at ease.
Warmth surged in her heart, and her eye circles gradually turned red.
Halfway through the journey, Gu Beixian's cell phone rang.
He lowered his eyes and hung up.
Su Hua intuitively felt that the call was from Chu Suosuo.
Not long after, the cell phone of the assistant sitting in the passenger seat also rang.
After he got through, he said a few words, handed over the phone, and said, "Mr. Gu, Miss Chu's phone number."
Gu Beixian took the phone and asked, "Is something wrong?"
Chu Suosuo's delicate voice was full of anxiety: "Brother Beixian, have you found Sister Suhua?"
"Found it."
"She must be frightened, right? Please stay with her and don't come to the hospital to stay with me these days."
Gu Beixian gave a faint "hmm".
Being so close, Su Hua could hear clearly, and her warm heart cooled down.
Before the divorce, he was still her husband, and her husband had to rely on charity from a third party to accompany her. What a humiliation this was.
She gently pushed Gu Beixian's arm away and moved to the seat to sit down.
Turning her head to look out the window, she smiled at her own shadow in the car window, her smile and lips were cold.
The beauty just now was all an illusion.
Yes, it's all her illusion.
The car drove into the city.
Su Hua said to Gu Beixian: "Send me to my mother's house. Grandma, you can help me find an excuse."
Gu Beixian was silent for a moment, "Okay."
Return home.
As soon as he entered the door, Su Peilan hugged Su Hua into his arms and asked, crying, "My dear, are you okay?"
"fine."
"It's okay, it's okay, but it scared mom to death. It's all because she was too careless. She didn't understand what you meant by asking me to take hypoglycemic medicine. It took me a day to come back to my senses. Thanks to Bei Xian.
Someone is looking for you, but you don't know what would have happened if it weren't for him? Mom is just a child like you, if something happens to you, how will mom live?" The normally lively woman was bursting into tears at this moment.
Su Hua raised her hand to wipe her tears and coaxed softly: "Stop crying, Mom, didn't I come back well?"
A week later, at night.
Gu Beixian drank too much at a business dinner.
The driver helped him home and settled him down on the sofa.
He stood up to get a towel when he heard Gu Beixian shouting vaguely with his eyes closed: "Suhua, Suhua, give me a glass of water."
The driver hesitated for two seconds, took out his cell phone and called Su Hua, saying, "Young Madam, Mr. Gu drank too much and keeps calling your name."
Su Hua pursed her lips and remained silent.
Su Peilan heard it from the side and said, "Go and take care of it. You will still be husband and wife without going through the divorce procedures. Don't make it too serious."
Su Hua said "hmm" and said to the driver, "I'll be there right away."
"Thank you, madam." The driver hung up the phone.
He poured a glass of water and gave it to Gu Beixian.
Just after I drank half of it, the doorbell rang suddenly.
The driver put the cup on the coffee table, got up and opened the door.
He saw Chu Suosuo standing outside, dressed in white, holding a fruit basket in his hand.
The driver said apologetically: "Ms. Chu, Mr. Gu has drunk too much, so I'm afraid I won't be able to entertain you."
Chu Suosuo smiled, "That's good, I'll take care of him."
She ducked in, put the fruit basket on the shoe cabinet, and said to the driver: "Go back, Brother Beixian, just leave it to me."
The driver looked embarrassed and said, "I just called the young lady and she will be here soon."
Chu Suosuo smiled slightly and said, "It's okay. I know Sister Suhua. She has a good temper and won't mind."
The driver hesitated for a moment, "Okay then."
He took the car keys and left.
After walking around the entrance hall, Chu Suosuo walked to the sofa and sat down, picked up the tea cup and fed Gu Beixian some water.
Smelling a familiar scent of perfume on the tip of his nose, Gu Beixian slowly opened his eyes.
Seeing clearly that it was Chu Suosuo, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He sat up on the sofa and asked, "Why are you here?"
Chu Suosuo fluttered his eyelashes and smiled charmingly, "I miss you so much that I couldn't help but come. You won't blame me, will you, Brother Beixian?"
Gu Beixian frowned slightly, "I drank too much and can't greet you. Go back."
Chu Suosuo was stunned, with red eyes, and said aggrievedly: "Brother Beixian, you still haven't really forgiven me. I've already told you that the breakup message three years ago was sent by my mother using my mobile phone. She sent me
I got you abroad and had someone watching you 24 hours a day, not allowing me to contact you. Do you know how painful I have been in these three years? I miss you so much every day that I can’t see you, and I’ve been tortured to death.
Severe depression..."
She covered her face and cried bitterly.
"I have forgiven you, really." Gu Beixian's eyes were a little restless, but his voice was warm: "Stop crying."
Chu Suosuo looked at him with tears in his eyes, looking pitiful and angry, "Then you are still driving me away?"
"I'm not divorced yet. It's not suitable for you to be here in the middle of the night." He pinched his legs hard with his hands, trying to wake up with the pain.
Chu Suosuo caught this detail and slowly leaned towards him. Her soft arms climbed up his shoulders like vines. She stared at him with spring in her cheeks and said in a soft voice: "I don't mind."
Gu Beixian turned aside and said, "I mind."
A trace of disappointment flashed in Chu Suosuo's eyes, and his outstretched hand froze in mid-air, and he took it back after a while.
The two of them suddenly had nothing to say.
The dark silence filled the whole room.
Chu Suosuo couldn't stand the silence. He raised his head and looked around, and finally landed on the painting on the wall. He was speechless and asked, "Is this ink bamboo painting an authentic work by Zheng Banqiao?"
"No, it was copied by Su Hua."
"Really? The painting is so good, I thought it was an authentic work." Chu Suosuo said quietly, "I didn't expect Sister Su Hua to be so good."
Gu Beixian's dark eyes became gentle, "Indeed, she is excellent."
"Brother Beixian is better. In my eyes, you will always be the best man." Chu Suosuo stared at him with shining eyes, the admiration in his eyes ready to come out.
Gu Beixian's thick eyelashes drooped slightly, and his eyes were stained with a thin layer of frost.
In Su Hua's heart, the best man must be her brother Ayao.
Suddenly, Chu Suosuo heard very light footsteps outside the door, and thought of what the driver had told her, Su Hua was coming soon.
He rolled his eyes and thought about it.
She stood up and went to hold Gu Beixian's arm. Her voice was sweet and irritating: "Brother Beixian, let me help you take a shower. After you take a shower, I will leave after you fall asleep."
"No need." Gu Beixian raised his hand to push her.
"It's okay, I'm not an outsider."
"No need, just go!" His tone became irritated.
Hearing the sound of the door being unlocked, Chu Suosuosuo's heart skipped a beat, and with a cry of "Ouch", he pretended to fall and fell onto him. He wrapped his arms around his waist and moved his mouth to his.
Gu Beixian held her neck and tried to move her head away.
However, Chu Suosuo was wrapped tightly around him like a snake. He drank too much and his muscles were weak, so he couldn't push it away for a while.
As soon as Su Hua entered the room, she saw Chu Suosuo and Gu Beixian hugging each other affectionately and kissing!
The hands that had touched her waist tenderly were holding Chu Suosuo's neck intimately!
Su Hua felt like she was struck by lightning, half of her body was cold!
