Part Two, East Land Great Sugar, Chapter 38: Unease

Ruandong pushed open the door, she was fastening the ties at the back of her dress. She had fallen in love with it at first sight. The fabric was light and airy, with slightly puffed sleeves on eithe...Li Si was also cunning. He said, "Old Lu, you've always been fair and just, separating public from private. Don't make things difficult for me. I'm listening to you now, releasing this person back to you. Just in case Gu Ruandong really committed a crime, I wouldn't be able to explain it to the people."

The elder was full of confidence: "I vouch for him, and I take responsibility for any issues that arise."

The old man cherishes his own feathers. To be able to say this, he has complete trust in Gu Ruandong, a trust that treats him as family.

Li Si: “Since Old Lu says so, I can only let him go.”

The old man was a stickler for rules, originally he wouldn't interfere in Song Jingye's investigation.

But those surnamed Li wanted to seek revenge for personal grudges, and he would never show mercy. In just a few words, he took back Gu Ruandong.

Lu Yaoyao was outside the study. Although she didn't know exactly what had happened, she only heard the old man say, "Someone has let you go."

She cried fast, laughed fast, and rushed into the study, hugging her grandfather and kissing his cheek fiercely.

"Thank you, grandpa. You're the best."

He finished speaking and turned to run, heading to the airport to return to Senzhou.

The old man's anger had been completely dissipated by her hug and kiss. Whatever, he thought, indulging her a little wouldn't hurt. Her happiness was more important than anything else.

Lu Yaoyao was at the airport, about to board her flight, when she unexpectedly received a call from Song Jingye. She was in a good mood right now and didn't want to argue with him, "Song Fat, what's up" she said, accidentally revealing her true feelings.

"Song Pang" Song Jingye asked helplessly, not bothering to argue with her, and got down to business.

"Gu Ruandong probably arrived in Senzhou around the same time as you. But YaoYao, I have a word of advice for you, your grandfather this time is using all his life's effort..."

The honor won in a fight vouches for Gu Ruandong. If Gu Ruandong ever does anything wrong again, you'll know the consequences.

He spoke with gravitas and sincerity, truly concerned. How many eyes were watching the Lu family from outside It wasn't just the Li family; Wang Binghai had failed in his plan, and what his followers would do next was anyone's guess.

Lu Yao Yao is not someone who doesn't know good from bad, so this time her attitude was very good: "I know, thank you, brother."

Song Jingye rarely heard her being so polite, and suddenly laughed: “Brother This time it’s not Fatty Song, is it”

"Well, bro."

Back at Senzhou Airport, she saw Gu Ruandong who had returned a step earlier than her, waiting for him at the exit. No matter what big events he had encountered these days, it seemed that none of them had left any trace on him. He smiled and watched her rush over, smiling and lifting her off the ground, pulling her into his embrace.

The surface looked normal, but the tightness of his grip betrayed his inner turmoil. Lu Yao's nose felt sour, forcing herself to be strong and not cry, people would return.

She said, "Let's go home."

"Okay, I'm going home."

One is rarely expressive of his emotions, and the other is an actor, so when the two returned home together, Cuiping didn't even know what had just happened in their house. She simply thought they were back from a business trip and hurriedly asked, "What are we having for dinner tonight I'll get started right away."

Neither of them paid her any attention, going straight upstairs to their rooms. Only embraces and kisses could soothe their anxieties.

After a long while, Gu Ruan let go of her. He went to take a shower first, and she squeezed into the bathroom too, wanting to help him wash. Her eyes were fixed on him, not moving at all.

"Wanna shower together" He reverted back to his usual mischievous grin.

Lu Yao yao didn't speak, she just stared at him.

Gu Ruandong knew what she was thinking, so he took the initiative to take it off.

Clothes that reveal a slender figure.

"Not hit!"

Lu YaoYao's eyes turned red, she repeatedly looked up and down his front and back, making sure he wasn't beaten before she truly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'll wash it for you."

He pulled her into the pool with him: "Let's wash together."

Maybe after this incident, Lu YaoYao became even more clingy to Ruan Dong than before. She followed him everywhere he went.

He works in the company, and she sits in his office with him. If he goes to a meeting, she goes to his break room to play basketball; she's pretty good at it now. If he has business dinners, she always tags along. She even dropped all her own work to be Mr. Gu's wife full-time.

Hao Jie was speechless. She called her several times, asking her to go back to work, but she refused every time. Desperate, she had no choice but to find Shan Shan to catch her at Gu Shi Group.

Little Cai is also having a hard time. Before, she only needed to take care of Shao Gu. Now, no matter what schedule is arranged, she has to consider the young mistress as well.

"Upon seeing Shan Shan, she said, 'Miss, this isn't a visit to keep Mr. Gu company; it's clear you're here to keep an eye on him, following him every step of the way.'"

Shanshan: “Our little princess wouldn't be so bored.”

In Xiao Cai's words, Yao Yao comes to accompany him every day because she cherishes their time together. But deep down, she truly wants to see Gu Ruan Dong.

She would occasionally think of her grandfather's words in the study back home in the capital city; she also often recalled Song Jingye's reminder over the phone, that her grandfather had used his most precious feather to guarantee Gu Ruandong.

She truly believed Gu Ruandong was innocent, but her heart always felt hollow. Only by watching him every day and knowing exactly what he was doing could she calm her anxiety.

This feeling is awful.

She can't help it, she always overthinks things.

Even in the middle of the night, when he hung up on unanswered calls, she would wonder why. What was there he didn't want to say in front of her Even when they were being intimate, her thoughts would wander, staring absentmindedly at his phone until Gu Ruantong helplessly got up to call back, pressing the speakerphone button, and only then would her anxious heart finally settle.

But the two were utterly devoid of interest.

She would also get annoyed, but she couldn't help it.

"Sleep now." Gu Ruandong didn't feel any displeasure, and continued to hold her and coax her to sleep.

"Brother, am I sick" she couldn't stop her thoughts from racing.man, to make sure she has enough to eat and wear, and doesn't have to suffer outside the home If that's the case, then the word should be a positive one, right"I have no idea what he's talking about."...
