A Tao was listening to Gu Yiyi's words. The more he listened, the more frightened he became, and the more he listened, the more unreasonable he became.
She couldn't help but stepped forward, pointed at Gu Yiyi and said angrily: "My young master really shouldn't have left back then, but it was not my young master who pushed you down when you fell into the water."
"Who told you that you can't stand firm on your own? How can you blame my young master now?"
"No matter who you go to to comment on this, my young master should not bear all the blame."
Bai Yuan's expression changed when she heard A Tao's words, and she quickly held A Tao's hand.
Talking about what happened back then now is just adding fuel to the fire, and it is useless to be reasonable now.
But Bai Yu'an still had the handle in the opponent's hands, which angered Gu Yiyi, and had no other benefit except making the opponent even crazier.
Sure enough, when Gu Yiyi heard A Tao's words, she stood up from the bed. She tightly held Bai Yu'an's shoulders with her hands and stared at Bai Yu'an with stubborn madness in her eyes: "Tell me, what happened back then?" Is it because of you?"
"is that you!"
Gu Yiyi shook Bai Yu'an's shoulders over and over again. In Bai Yu'an's view, Gu Yiyi was extremely pitiful now.
She is obsessed with putting all the mistakes of the past on herself, as if this will make her life easier when she suffers.
Hating someone is another expectation.
Bai Yu'an wanted to help her, and also wanted to help herself.
What happened that year is not a regret in my heart.
She asked someone to inquire about it on the way, and the people who came said that they had moved to the countryside, and she thought they were living a good life.
Bai Yu'an signaled A Tao not to move with his eyes, gently held Gu Yiyi's wrist with one hand, and whispered: "I was indeed wrong about what happened back then, but we are no longer children."
"Whether you want to get what you want from me, it's time to let go of the past."
Bai Yu'an's words were calm and quiet, but Gu Yiyi stopped moving her hands, stared blankly at Bai Yu'an, and suddenly laughed.
Even though the face was smiling, it looked old and cold, not like a nineteen-year-old girl.
Bai Yu'an sympathized with Gu Yiyi's experience and understood that it was his own fault that caused the disaster.
But it is impossible to go back to that time, and Bai Yu'an can't go back and start over.
Gu Yiyi still put her hand on Bai Yu'an's shoulder, smiled coldly and said: "You are right, now I hold your handle in my hand."
"If you don't want the whole clan to be implicated, you must listen to me."
She laughed loudly as she spoke, and used more force on her hands, staring at Bai Yu'an: "Bai Yu'an, have you ever thought about it? One day your life and death will be in my hands."
"If I want you to die, you must die!"
The sharp sound echoed through this cold and small room, which was extremely frightening.
A Tao's face changed drastically, and just as he was about to step forward to speak, Bai Yu'an grabbed his wrist.
Bai Yu'an met Gu Yiyi's eyes and whispered: "My life and death are indeed in your hands."
"But if I die, you'll get nothing."
After saying this, Bai Yuan paused and said in a low voice: "I will get the questions for this scientific examination for you."
"I'll help you."
Gu Yiyi paused, obviously a little unresponsive, but Bai Yu'an agreed so simply.
Bai Yu'an looked at Gu Yiyi and continued: "I will not only give you the questions, but I will also write down the answers to the articles for you in advance."
Gu Yiyi frowned and looked at Bai Yu'an's expression: "You didn't lie to me?"
Bai Yu'an smiled bitterly: "If I had tens of thousands of dollars, I would naturally give it to you."
"It's just that the Imperial Academy is poor and not as rich as you think, and I can only give you questions."
"My life is in your hands, how could I lie to you?"
The hands on her shoulders finally let go, and Gu Yiyi smiled: "I guess you understand."
As she said that, she stared at Bai Yu'an and snorted: "But don't think about killing me to silence me. As soon as I die, my people will send your secret letters to the government."
"So if I die, you will be buried with me."
Bai Yu'an looked at Gu Yiyi: "Your people?"
"Can you guarantee that he won't open the letter and read it?"
Gu Yiyi snorted: "Don't worry, he can't read."
Bai Yu'an's words just now were just to confirm whether there really was such a person. Now that Gu Yiyi said it so casually, it might be true.
The tips of her fingers couldn't help scratching on her knees. Bai Yu'an lowered her eyes slightly, thinking about it several times in her mind.
After a while, Bai Yu'an stood up and looked through the window at Gu Haiqing, who was still sitting outside.
Wearing dark brown coarse cloth, he has a thin figure and doesn't say a word.
A man is so thin, it touches people's heart and makes people feel depressed and pitiful.
Bai Yu'an wanted to ask a few questions about Gu Haiqing's situation, but he was afraid of irritating Gu Yiyi and thinking about the past, so he didn't ask.
Gu Yiyi was emotionally unstable now. Bai Yu'an had finished speaking and there was no need to stay any longer.
She looked at Gu Yiyi: "Do you have anything else to say?"
Gu Yiyi took a step towards Bai Yu'an: "You haven't said who came to tie me up today."
Bai Yu'an did not answer Gu Yiyi's question, but just said: "Who do you think it is?"
Gu Yiyi frowned deeply, took another step towards Bai Yu'an, and said in a more serious tone: "If I want to know, do I still need to ask you?"
Bai Yu'an sighed: "It doesn't matter who that person is, what's important is that if you continue to live here, you may be kidnapped."
Gu Yiyi looked at Bai Yu'an: "Are you the one who kidnapped me?"
Bai Yu'an looked at Gu Yiyi and shook his head: "If I really want to tie you up, I don't have to talk to you so much here."
Bai Yu'an said in a low voice: "But no matter who may kidnap you again, if you keep my secret for me, I will definitely keep my promise."
Gu Yiyi stared at Bai Yu'an closely: "Before the scientific examination, no one will know about your affairs."
Bai Yu'an looked at Gu Yiyi and then looked inside the house.
Seeing a desk placed opposite the bed, with brushes and papers on it, I couldn't help but walk over.
The tabletop was full of dirt, which was particularly obvious under the rice paper.
Bai Yu'an's eyes fell on the words on the rice paper. The words did not have the strength and sharpness of the writing that a scholar should have. The writing was weak and a bit immature.
This should be the calligraphy that Gu Yiyi has been practicing these days. Bai Yu'an took a few glances, picked up the brush and wrote a line of words on the corner of the paper.
She handed the paper to Gu Yiyi: "There is an address on it. If you can trust me, you can move to this address with your eldest brother."
"I can't guarantee whether the person who kidnapped you will come again today, but it's always necessary for you to be on guard."
Gu Yiyi looked at the words on the paper. They were neat and orderly, and each stroke was a smooth stroke. They were so different from her own words next to them that she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
The expression on his face became even more embarrassing, and he looked at Bai Yu'an: "I won't believe you, why do you want to help me."
Bai Yu'an smiled bitterly: "Believe it or not, I just want you to keep the secret for me."
"Whether you go or not is up to you."
Bai Yu'an said no more and walked out with A Tao.
