"The wound on your chin …"
Zhou Sicheng was shocked, "En'en, you already know?"
"Yes."
Zhou Sicheng didn't know what went wrong. Gu En'en actually knew about his wound. However, if he continued to conceal it now, Gu En'en would probably never believe him again.
'"Because of the shares, I went to the house of a shareholder of the company. Coincidentally, I didn't shave that day. The daughter of the Jin family, Jin Shanshan, grew up with me. After dinner, she pulled me … shave my beard." After Zhou Sicheng finished speaking carefully, he looked at Gu En'en with some apprehension.
Gu En'en did not have the suspicions that Zhou Sicheng had imagined. She even smiled calmly, "So you are childhood sweethearts?"
Childhood sweetheart?
This is often used to describe a lover …
Sicheng Zhou shook his head and denied, "En'en, I only have feelings for her brother and sister. Don't think about it. There's nothing between us."
To increase his affirmative tone, he repeated, "It's really nothing."
He explained so straightforwardly, and Gu En'en wasn't stupid either, so he naturally saw through this path. She shrugged. "I didn't say anything. There's no need for you to explain in such a hurry. However, I guess she must be a lovable girl."
Seeing that Zhou Sicheng did not respond, she asked, "Did you just say that you went to the Jin Clan because of the shares? How was your discussion?"
Zhou Sicheng was speechless as he shook his head.
"Didn't we succeed?" Gu En'en was puzzled, "Logically speaking, you and Jin Shanshan grew up together. Your family and the Jin family should have a good relationship. How could the Zhou family not help at this time?"
"Sometimes, things in the mall don't matter."
"I really don't understand the business, if it was me, friends in trouble, will not hesitate to take action. "However, you now have 20 million in your possession. Speak well with the Jin Clan. Let's see how many shares you can buy first. Although the Jin Clan values benefits, you two still have some friendship. It should be easier to deal with them than to talk business with outsiders." When Gu En'en said this, he couldn't help but think of Tong Xue. When she needed help, Tong Xue did not hesitate to help. She was so straightforward that she did not ask her for the date of repayment. She did not even ask her to write an IOU …
Thinking of it this way, the friendship between them must be very, very real.
In this lifetime, one or two close friends were like this. This lifetime was enough.
Zhou Sicheng shook his head when he thought of Jin Cheng's offer that day. "The Jin Clan …"
"What's wrong? Did you encounter any difficulties?"
Gu En'en's eyes were pure and filled with concern. Zhou Sicheng thought for a moment. He remembered that there was no impervious wall in the world. He and Jin Shanshan did not tell each other what happened in time, but it was inevitable that others would make a big fuss about it. For example, Jin Cheng, who loved his daughter so much, and Ji Feifan, who tried everything to drive him away from Gu En'en. If he waited for others to use this matter to make a big fuss in front of Gu En'en in the future, it would be better for him to openly admit it now. Moreover, he had just promised her that he would not hide anything from her in the future. Therefore, he said honestly, "The Jin Clan doesn't need money. They can give me shares free of charge, but … they just want to be with me, Jin Shanshan."
"What?" Gu En'en's eyes widened.
"How could this be? How could emotions be exchanged for material goods?" She asked in disbelief.
Zhou Sicheng looked at her approvingly.
Gu En'en said indignantly, "If it is related to material things, such feelings are too cheap! How can the Jin Family's adults be like this? They are too disrespectful! However, if you reject them, what can you do with your shares?"
"It doesn't matter. Apart from the Jin Family, there are three other shareholders. I will probe their gossip tomorrow."
"That's the only way."
After Gu En'en finished speaking, he remembered Zhou Sicheng's father's illness and asked with concern, "Sicheng, is your father better?"
Speaking of this topic, Zhou Sicheng's aura turned cold.
He shook his head.
"How could this be? What's wrong with Uncle? Isn't he in the hospital? What happened to those doctors!"
"No" Zhou Sicheng's eyes immediately darkened, and his entire body became gloomy. "I didn't go to see him."
"Why?" Gu En'en did not believe that Zhou Sicheng was an unfilial child. He was a kind and modest person. He would come to see her every day no matter how busy he was. How could he not visit his father? This was not something that Zhou Sicheng could do. There must be some other reason.
"The company has become like this in my hands. I have no face to see him …"
He was afraid of seeing his father's disappointed look at him.
His eyes grew dimmer and dimmer. The emotions inside were too complicated, something Gu En'en had never seen before.
"Sicheng." She grabbed his hand and clenched it tightly. "It's not your fault that things have developed to this day. I believe you've been working hard and earnestly. Your father is in the hospital now. Apart from worrying about the company, the person he wants to see the most is you. He must be very sad that you've been avoiding him."
She shook his hand and advised, "Listen to me, go and see him. No matter what happens, I'm sure he'll always stand by you."
Zhou Sicheng's worries had been suppressed for so many days. Every day, he tried his best to suppress them so that no one could see the clues. He even pretended to smile when facing his opponent. Now, the pain and pain that had been suppressed for so long had finally erupted. His lips trembled slightly, and two tears flowed out of his absent-minded and sad eyes.
His tears were sparkling and translucent. Under the illumination of the indoor lights, they reflected a bright luster. In Gu En'en's eyes, they were so precious.
She couldn't help but raise her hand to caress his face. Her voice slowly, slowly, as if it came from the horizon, like the sound of nature, "Cry if you want to cry."
Changing places, she believed that she would definitely collapse even more than Zhou Sicheng.
Zhou Sicheng reached out and hugged her. His face was pressed against her neck. He did not cry or tremble. However, Gu En'en could clearly feel his hot tears seeping into her clothes, touching her skin and burning her heart.
She also reached out and hugged him, letting him vent his emotions.
The embrace was emotionless, as if two injured people were warming each other up.
After a long time, Zhou Sicheng seemed to have flowed into all the water in his body. Gu En'en leaned against his arms and listened to his irregular heartbeat. He pursed his lips and hugged him tightly.
The scene seemed to be old and desolate.
If Mrs. Yang hadn't just pushed the door open and entered, the two of them would have seemed to have frozen in place.
The sudden sound of the door being pushed open, the sudden sound of footsteps, and the sudden panic of a middle-aged woman made Gu En'en and Zhou Sicheng turn their heads to look.
'"Um... I..." Mrs. Yang was very embarrassed. She forced out a hard smile. Her hands and feet were so flustered that she didn't know what to do. She stammered, stuttered, and said intermittently, "Um... I... I... I want to see if En'en is asleep..."
Although she wasn't accompanying her in bed, she had to help Gu En'en go to the bathroom to take a bath before leaving every day, so as to prevent her from getting anxious at night.
For a moment, Gu En'en forgot that she was hugging Zhou Sicheng. Listening to Mrs. Yang's awkward expression, she realized that she pushed Zhou Sicheng away in a panic, her face turning red.
"Mrs. Yang … you can go back. I'm … fine now."
"Alright, I'll go back first." Mrs. Yang originally wanted to ask Gu En'en what he wanted to eat in the morning, but in this situation, she didn't ask anything. She just maintained that awkward smile until the end. "Then you should rest early. I'll come back tomorrow morning and call me if you need anything."
"Yes."
After watching Mrs. Yang leave, Gu En'en pursed his lips and looked at Zhou Sicheng. He saw two large tear stains on his eyes. He sighed softly and asked softly, "Are you in a better mood?"
"Yes."
Zhou Sicheng rarely had such a big emotional fluctuation. From the moment he remembered, he was a child who rarely cried. Apart from the day his mother left, only today was his emotions collapsing. Tears burst out of his eyes.
On both occasions, Gu En'en was by his side accompanying him.
He blinked his still hazy eyes, and his sexy red lips moved because of his excitement, "Just now, I made you laugh."
"Why are we being so polite?" Gu En'en coughed lightly and pretended to be careless.
"Yeah, there's no need for us to be so polite." Zhou Sicheng stopped his sadness in time, but his voice still choked.
Gu En'en narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Zhou Sicheng gave her the feeling that she would always be like a Jiangnan waterscape, calm, quiet, peaceful and gentle. It seemed that he would never know how to be angry, angry, or sad. Now, seeing that he was different from usual, Gu En'en felt more intimate than heartache.
The two of them were silent for a long time before Zhou Sicheng broke the silence between them. "En'en, there's something I don't understand."
"Tell me."
Tonight, Gu En'en did not feel sleepy at all. Perhaps too many things had happened today, so much so that she did not feel sleepy at all when she should have gone to bed long ago.
"How did you know about my chin wound?" Tonight, since everything had been said, Zhou Sicheng decided to go to the bottom of his mind.
Gu En'en scratched her hair and embarrassedly avoided Zhou Sicheng's long line of sight. "I accidentally heard it" She really didn't mean to eavesdrop.
"Did you hear that?"
Zhou Sicheng thought for a moment and suddenly remembered the scene of him chatting with Ji Feifan alone not long ago.
On that day, Ji Feifan pointed out the matter of the wound on his chin. He was especially angry at that time. Apart from his wounds, they seemed to have talked about something else …
Zhou Sicheng's face suddenly flushed red, "That day … our conversation … you … you heard it?"
If he remembered correctly, he personally admitted to Ji Feifan that he had feelings for her …
