Chapter 397 This Was Called Being Caught off Guard
With that, Gu Li turned and brushed past Yan Beichen's body, his back straight as he left.
Luo Jingwan looked at the background Gu Li had left and his brows slightly furrowed.
Although Gu Li, the boss of Bpearl that she knew well had a somewhat eccentric personality, he was not cold and aloof.
She had seen her treat her employees with tolerance and warmth, a boss who was able to get along well with the shop assistants.
But today, Gu Li's entire body was emanating a cold aura.
It almost made her think that she was not the owner of the bpearl she knew.
Yan Beichen's left hand, which was in his pocket, brushed past Gu Li and clenched his fist tightly.
However, he looked calm and composed, with a bit of a smile on his lips, he calmly walked towards Luo Jingwan.
Seeing him walk over, Luo Jingwan immediately shook off her doubts, her pure face revealed a bashful smile: "Second Master."
Yan Beichen smiled warmly at her, "I hope that Miss Luo will not think that Bei Chen is rude when he suddenly comes today."
"How could that be?" "Jingwan knows that second master has always been busy with official business, if second master can spare the time to pick up Jingwan, Jingwan would be so happy that he wouldn't even make it in time, why do I feel like second master is rude?"
Luo Jingwan held tightly onto Yan Beichen's arm. The firm touch made her heart beat wildly. This man was very powerful.
Yan Beichen's clear eyes unwittingly swept across Luo Jingwan's jade hand that was on his arm. The smile on her lips deepened, and her eyes that were not a smile turned back to her captivating red face, and her voice also carried a faint smile, "Miss Luo, are you really happy?"
Luo Jingwan looked at the smile on the man's face, and his eyes seemed to glaze over for a moment. In a moment, his mind was distracted, but the redness on Luo Jingwan's face deepened, and he nodded modestly.
Yan Beichen raised his eyebrows, the clear eyes that were looking at Luo Jingwan seemed to become gentle, at least in Luo Jingwan's eyes, his gaze was gentle, and intoxicating.
Luo Jingwan watched foolishly once again.
So much so that when he said "Since you're happy, then I'll come pick you up every single day", Luo Jingwan actually had the feeling that this man of noble status had doted on him to destroy his entire family.
The infatuation and yearning in his eyes for an outstanding man was completely revealed at this moment.
However, Yan Beichen's eyes went cold and squinted.
When Gu Li returned to his courtyard, a gust of wind blew into the bathroom in his room.
Hearing the door opening, the Gu's Mother came out of his room in his pajamas and stared at Gu Li's room that was in the courtyard for two seconds. Then, he turned his head and said something to the Gu's Father in the room before turning his head and entering the kitchen.
Gu Li stood under the shower while clothed in boiling hot water that sprinkled from the top of her head, yet was unable to disperse the cold air around her.
That terrifying memory from two years ago was like a black and white photograph that was clearly visible in her mind as she flipped through the pages one by one.
She would never forget.
When he had taken the child from her, his face had been ferocious and hateful.
Clutching his abdomen, Gu Li seemed to still be able to feel the trembling pain that caused her despair.
Tears that were accompanied by hot water dripped down from the corner of her eyes. Gu Li bit her lower lip as she cried pitifully through the gaps between her teeth, trying her best to restrain her tears.
When Gu Li came out of the bathroom, he had already calmed down.
However, when she saw the Gu's Mother sitting on her bed, she tensed up a little. "Mom ?"
Gu's Mother glared at Gu Li but did not say a word.
Gu Li's heart tensed up, he bit his lower lip.
He wondered if she had heard her washing the bathroom.
Secretly swallowing the lump in his throat, Gu Li wiped his hair dry with the towel and looked at Gu's Mother from the corner of his eyes, but did not dare to look at her directly, "Mom, it's so late, why are you not sleeping and ru
ing to my room?"
"Gu Xiaolian!" Gu's Mother jumped up from the bed.
Gu Li was so shocked that he almost knelt down for her mother. She bit her lips and looked at him, as her voice trembled, "Mom, you, what are you doing? What are you doing?
The Gu's Mother snorted coldly, walked in front of her and pulled her wrist out.
"Mom ?" Gu Li screamed, "You, you, don't be like this. I do, what do you have to say, if you have anything you want to say we can talk about it properly."
The Gu's Mother did not listen, and directly dragged Gu Li into the living room.
Gu Li was so afraid, he immediately shouted towards Gu's Father's room, "Dad, save me, Mom is crazy!"
"Damned girl!" Gu's Mother turned his head and grabbed Gu Li's ears.
"Mom, mom, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts ?" Gu Li immediately went to grab Gu's Mother's hand.
Gu's Mother suppressed his laughter, "Your mother doesn't hurt!"
"..." "I'm in pain, I'm in pain!" Gu Li was close to tears. Was this still the treatment of a daughter?
"Take it!"
"?"
"Mom, let's talk this over. You have to surprise me again next time. Can I trouble you to use a more gentle method?"
Gu Li's eyes were red as she ate the sumptuous supper prepared specially for her by the Gu's Mother without a care in the world.
She had thought that something huge had happened, but she was dragged by her mother to the living room and pressed down on the table. She proudly pointed at the dishes on the table and let her eat them all!
Gu's Mother smirked as he brought a peeled plate of prawns in front of Gu Li, "Mom is taking me by surprise."
Gu Li curled his lips and muttered, "Old urchin!"
"Gu Xiaolian!"
"Reporting to mom, I didn't say anything just now!"
"?"
Gu's Mother rolled her eyes and looked at her face that had lost a lot of weight. She said with a pained heart, "My daughter, making money is important, but your body is far more important than making money. "Don't go around pretending to be a businessman. Do you see how thin you are?"
"Am I thin?" Gu Li looked at his own arm, "You're not ski
y, Mom, you must be mistaken."
"You're my daughter, so even if you're missing a drop of flesh, I can still see it!" Gu's Mother glared at Gu Li and said.
Gu Li was overjoyed, and fawningly touched the Gu's Mother's arm with his face, "That's true, that's true."
Gu's Mother snorted, "Quickly eat."
"Aren't I eating? "Don't worry Mom, I'm sure I'll eat up all the dishes on the table." Gu Li said while laughing.
Gu's Mother laughed in satisfaction, he stood up and said while walking, "After you finish eating, put it on the table. I will wake up tomorrow to clean it up."
Gu Li made a "OK" gesture towards her.
However, Gu's Mother suddenly stopped at the door and turned to look at Gu Li: "Oh yes daughter, did you tell Xiao Xi about your mother Xu?"
