After Gu Zeyun finished eating, Lin Nian turned to look at the house.
At this sight, her eyes widened.
The house was facing the street, and the inside was cleaned very brightly. The only drawback was that there wasn’t much furniture.
But she wanted to use it for business, and ordinary furniture wouldn’t be useful. Too much would be a burden.
However, in such an empty room, there was a small wooden bed for resting, covered with a brand-new cotton quilt. When she got closer, she could smell the warm scent of the sun.
It could be said that this house was simply tailor-made for her!
She immediately understood.
Gu Zeyun was doing good deeds without leaving his name again.
Whether in her past life or this life, Gu Zeyun had been very, very good to her.
Although it had nothing to do with liking her, it was just pure kindness…
But Lin Nian was still very touched.
She turned her head and walked towards Chen Ran.
“Can you lend me your bicycle? I’m going to buy meat and make you a big meal for lunch today!”
Chen Ran curled his lips, turned around and got off the bike, muttering to himself.
“Stingy, just eating at home? I thought we’d at least go to a state-owned restaurant or something…”
Before he could finish his words, he was suddenly interrupted by Gu Zeyun.
“What’s wrong with your foot?”
Chen Ran was stunned, and then he noticed that Lin Nian’s walking posture was a bit unnatural.
Before he could react, he felt a gust of wind…
Gu Zeyun had already run over and naturally lifted Lin Nian onto the back seat of the bicycle, lifting her trouser leg.
Lin Nian was a little embarrassed and subconsciously wanted to pull it back, but she couldn’t break free, which made Gu Zeyun unhappy.
He frowned, his voice a little low.
“Don’t move, it’s swollen.”
“We have to go to the hospital.”
He raised his hand, wanting to touch the skin around it to confirm if the bone was okay, but he took it back the moment he reached out.
Men and women were different, and since he didn’t want to get married, he shouldn’t do anything too intimate.
But… she was so badly injured, it had to be dealt with quickly.
Gu Zeyun pulled Chen Ran, who was holding the bicycle handlebars, away, straddled the bike himself, and turned his head to remind Lin Nian in a low voice.
“I’ll take you to the hospital, we can’t delay.”
Lin Nian wanted to refuse, but remembering that her walking was not smooth and might expose her actions last night, she didn’t say anything.
After hesitating for a moment, she said softly.
“But, I still have to cook for you!”
This time, it was Gu Zeyun’s turn to be silent.
He really couldn’t figure out how this little girl’s brain was wired.
Did she really have to eat this meal?
Was it because he helped her find a house and she didn’t want to owe him a favor?
Thinking of this possibility, he felt a little stuffy in his heart, but he still responded forcefully.
“Go to the hospital first.”
“Chen Ran is right, if you want to treat us, you can go to a restaurant later.”
This was the first time that Gu Zeyun had chosen Chen Ran over the two of them since he met Lin Nian.
But Chen Ran wasn’t happy at all.
Obviously, his brother’s starting point was still thinking about Lin Nian!
He gritted his teeth and turned to look at Lin Nian, but found that she had a stubborn look on her face.
“No! Don’t think I don’t know, you don’t like eating restaurant food at all.”
Gu Zeyun laughed in anger.
He didn’t even need to turn his head, he could imagine the little girl’s expression. His voice couldn’t help but soften, and in the end, it even had a hint of a smile.
“You know again?”
“What, you don’t like the food made in restaurants, but you like the food you make?”
Gu Zeyun had never been very particular about his appetite. He would eat if there was food, and he wouldn’t eat if there wasn’t.
Whether it was the army cafeteria or the state-owned restaurant, there was no difference to him. Anyway, the taste was average.
In comparison, only the master chef hired by the Gu family in Kyoto could make him eat a few more bites.
He didn’t know where this little girl got her confidence from, as if she had…
Set her sights on him.
Gu Zeyun lowered his head and chuckled.
Just then, a delicate voice came from behind.
“Of course! You’ll definitely love what I make!”
Chen Ran’s teeth ached as he watched, and in the end, he could only sigh.
“Forget it, forget it, I’ll go!”
“I’ll go buy groceries, okay?”
“You two, just go to the hospital in peace!”
After the medicine was applied and the bandage was done at the hospital.
Gu Zeyun frowned as he looked at Lin Nian’s calm expression.
“Why didn’t you say anything about such an important thing?”
“Since you want to be my apprentice, you should cherish your body even more. If your leg is broken, how are you going to learn to fight?”
Lin Nian awkwardly touched her nose and didn’t say anything.
On the other hand, the young doctor on the side couldn’t listen anymore and interrupted.
“Her foot is just sprained! It won’t break!”
“Hey, Xiao Gu, don’t be so fierce to girls. This isn’t how you pursue a wife.”
Gu Zeyun was stunned. He looked up and found that the other person looked a bit familiar. Only then did he realize that he had sent Lin Nian to the hospital where his mother, Xiao Lan, worked in his haste.
Although he didn’t come often, many doctors and nurses knew that he was Xiao Lan’s son.
Now, many people would see Lin Nian.
His back stiffened, and he felt a belated sense of shame.
Sure enough, he heard teasing in the next sentence.
“Don’t say that, this girl and you have a married couple’s look.”
“I think this time, it can be done!”
Gu Zeyun opened his mouth, subconsciously wanting to scold the other person not to talk nonsense.
But he turned his head and found that Lin Nian was just smiling with her head down, and the words of rebuttal were all stuck and couldn’t be said.
A married couple’s look?
He didn’t believe in such things.
Wasn’t it just that two people looked similar? There were many similar people in the world.
Speaking of which, was it because Lin Nian looked a bit like him that he felt familiar with her and wanted to help her?
That made sense.
Gu Zeyun suddenly convinced himself, squatted down with his back to Lin Nian.
“Let’s go, aren’t you going back to cook for me?”
Lin Nian was stunned and subconsciously asked.
“Are you going to carry me on your back?”
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly reacted.
That person knew Gu Zeyun. He was probably putting on a show in front of others now!
Since they had agreed to a fake marriage, they always had to put on a good show in front of others.
She nodded and didn’t act coy anymore, simply lying on his back.
Gu Zeyun became even stiffer.
Actually, after saying it just now, he realized that it was a bit inappropriate.
Carrying her on his back…
Was a bit too intimate.
But Lin Nian’s foot was injured. If he didn’t carry her on his back, would he carry her in his arms?
That seemed… even more intimate, right?
The more he struggled, the more obvious the warmth on his back became. Lin Nian’s head was on his shoulder, and he could feel the breeze of her breath.
Gu Zeyun didn’t dare to move until Lin Nian tilted her head and asked him blankly.
“What’s wrong? Did I misunderstand?”
“…No.”
He sighed and then slowly got up, carrying her on his back.
When passing by the hospital entrance, he seemed to hear the voice of the doctor just now.
“Look! I said Xiao Gu was serious this time!”
“Look, his face is red!”
“…”
Gu Zeyun’s pace suddenly became faster.
