Chapter 488: Sweet Talk Made Just For You
Gu Dagang cried for a long time, as if he was crying out all the guilt he felt towards Gu Yan and all the pain he had suppressed recently.
Gu Qiang did not know why his father suddenly cried. He was a little fl.u.s.tered and uneasy, but he did not know what he could say or do.
During this process, Gu Yan did not say a word. She pulled Lu Ye, put down his things, and walked out together.
Gu Yan quietly tidied up the yard. The moon was bright and the stars were spa.r.s.e above her head. From time to time, she could hear some dog barking on Jialuo.
Lu Ye also helped Gu Yan clean up the messy yard.
Gu Dagang’s crying could be faintly heard from inside the house.
Gu Yan sighed and stared blankly at the empty pigsty.
Lu Ye held her shoulder and said, “Don’t worry. He’ll calm down after he cries. He’s been repressed for too long. It’s a good thing that he’s crying.”
“He feels guilty toward me, but he can’t help me much. This is the pain buried deep in his heart.” Gu Yan smiled faintly, “Ah Ye, actually, I’m not a very kind person. If others treat me badly, I’ll always remember it. If they treat me well, I’ll naturally repay them with double the favor.”
“This isn’t a question of kindness. It’s a clear distinction between love and hate,” Lu Ye said seriously, “Everyone has their own outlook on life and values. It’s understandable that you choose what you think is right. Although Gu Dagang had his shortcomings, he also had his kindness. He was different from Zhang Lan. But no matter what you do, I’ll stand firmly behind you.”
“Aren’t you afraid of making mistakes with me?” Gu Yan raised her eyebrows and asked curiously.
Lu Ye’s eyes were like bright stars. “What’s wrong with making mistakes? Even if we go to h.e.l.l together, I’m willing to suffer!”
Gu Yan was slightly moved. Her eyes were slightly lowered, and her long eyelashes were editing the flowing light. She smiled bitterly and said, “Although I know it’s just sweet talk, I’m still very touched when I hear it. Women really can’t stand this.”
“Comrade Gu Yan, your att.i.tude is wrong. You have to know that this sweet talk is specially made for you, and it’s a limited edition. Most importantly, these sweet talk are more real than real gold!” Captain Lu sternly pointed out.
Gu Yan knew that Lu Ye was trying hard to raise her mood. She curled the corner of her mouth and pointed at the empty pigsty, “When I wasn’t as tall as the pigsty, I started feeding the pigs. One time, I leaned in too much and fell headfirst into it.”
“Yan Yan…” Lu Ye felt his heart ache.
He had grown up in an excellent environment.
Even when he joined the special training force and he had suffered, that kind of suffering was different from Gu Yan’s.
If Gu Yan and Bai Weiyang had not swapped lives, Gu Yan would have been a proud and beautiful little princess growing up in the Northern Star area’s n.o.ble district.
However, Gu Yan smiled indifferently and continued, “Ah Ye, you don’t know. When I fell in, I scared the pigs inside. Fortunately, they were scared to the point that they squeezed into the corner. Otherwise, if they came over and stepped on my head a few times, I might have gone to accompany my brother Gu Qiang.”
Lu Ye frowned and pulled Gu Yan into his arms. The night breeze gently blew Gu Yan’s long hair.
Gu Yan rested her chin on Lu Ye’s shoulder and looked at the starry sky in the distance.
“Later, it was Gu Dagang who carried me out. I didn’t understand at that time why his eyes turned red when he looked at me. Then, he muttered, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I was still curious at that time. I asked him, “I fell into it myself. Dad, what are you sorry for?”
Lu Ye hugged Gu Yan tightly.
Gu Yan felt the warmth that the man brought to her, and she looked into the distance quietly.
“When I was a few years old, I scalded off a large piece of skin when I made my first pancake. At that time, the pain was so painful that I cried until I was out of breath. However, Zhang Lan gave me a slap, saying that I was useless and that I made them unable to eat lunch.”
