The air was suddenly dead.
Gu Zhiyin's face stiffened for a moment, and his headache suddenly worsened. He took out his mobile phone with a gloomy expression.
Mu Ning couldn't sleep after being woken up. He tossed and turned around and simply lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, feeling a little worried.
She did have the idea of leaving Gu Zhiyin, but she didn't expect this scene to happen so quickly, and she wasn't ready yet.
She had to think about how to live her life in the future.
At this time, the mobile phone rang.
The ringing seemed a bit abrupt in the quiet morning.
She lay still and took a look at the phone.
The familiar number kept flashing.
The moment he was about to answer the call, his finger paused and moved towards the hang up button.
As expected, two seconds later, the phone rang again.
She knew what Gu Zhiyin wanted to do, and there was no doubt that he would be waiting for her below.
Mu Ning pressed the button again, and before the third call came in, she muted her phone and placed it on the carpet.
After all, Gu Zhiyin adopted her, but he had no obligation to raise her for life. They had two surnames on the same household register.
If Gu Zhiyin is willing to let her call him uncle, then he is uncle; if he doesn't let her call him uncle, then she is nothing.
Maybe Gu Zhiyin raised her too well in the past, and she forgot her identity. She was obviously a servant of the Gu family, but she actually thought of herself as the rich daughter of the Gu family. No wonder Gu Zhiyin was not satisfied with her in any way. He had always disliked her. .
Mu Ning snorted lightly.
"Dong dong dong."
Someone knocked on the door again, this time a little impatiently.
Obviously, Song Heng was also annoyed.
Before she could get up, she knocked on the door instead of banging on it. The standards of this hotel were not low. If it weren't for the high quality of the door, Mu Ning was really afraid that the door would fall apart.
"Urgent! I've said you won't go back. Is it because you can't understand people or something?"
As long as she didn't open the door, the knocking on the door was like a reminder.
Mu Ning's temper also rose. He pulled on his slippers and shouted at the door, "This hotel is not named Gu, can it be more civilized? You are not afraid of disturbing the people, but I am afraid that the neighbors will call me incompetent! Go back and tell Gu Zhiyin that I will not go back. Let him go away..."
Mu Ning suddenly opened the door.
The second half of the sentence stuck in my throat.
Standing outside the door was actually Gu Zhiyin.
He had a sullen face, and his black clothes looked like they were soaked in ink. He stood sideways, raised one arm, and flexed his fingers and froze them in the air before he could hit them.
Mu Ning swallowed back what he had not finished, blocked the door, and said in a lukewarm voice, "Master Gu, are you okay?"
"What did you call me?" Gu Zhiyin withdrew his hand, his face becoming more and more gloomy.
"Master Gu, what's the problem? If you don't like it, how about calling you Mr. Gu?" Mu Ning folded his arms and sneered, "It doesn't matter anymore. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to call you uncle."
"Mu Ning." Gu Zhiyin gritted his teeth, knowing that this girl was deliberately trying to spite him.
He looked over Mu Ning. The white bathrobe was not the one at home. His legs were bare, and the slippers on his feet were also from the hotel.
She was used to living there.
He looked past her and inside.
What are you looking at?
Want to see if there's anyone else inside?
Mu Ning glared at him.
Gu Zhiyin has always been suspicious, and she has long been aware of his little thoughts.
Mu Ning blocked him, "Mr. Gu, what do you want to do?"
Gu Zhiyin retracted his gaze without any trace, frowned, and said slowly, "Follow me home."
The tone was calm, but it was a commanding tone, and Mu Ning felt uncomfortable hearing it.
"Mr. Gu, I think you are mistaken." She made her words clear every word, "That is your home, not mine. Even though we have lived here for so many years, we are just renting it. What have you done to me over the years?" I'm very grateful for my adoption and care, but I can't just hang on, right?"
He kept saying "you" one after another, which made Gu Zhiyin feel very uncomfortable.
He looked at Mu Ning coldly and snorted, "Is this how you appreciate me? Besides, who said you won't leave?"
Mu Ning laughed angrily, "Aren't you going to kick me out now?"
"..."
Gu Zhiyin was speechless.
He softened his expression and said quietly, "Am I not here to pick up Ning Ning?"
"Ha." Mu Ning laughed angrily.
Gu Zhiyungang's gentle face darkened again, and he frowned at Mu Ning, obviously displeased.
"I admit that I am not sensible, I have caused you a lot of trouble, and I have not grown up the way you like according to your standards." Mu Ning was so confused that he couldn't hide things, so he just vomited them out, "I am young, but You’re not stupid, you were dissatisfied with me as soon as you came back, and I wanted to do as you said, but..."
Mu Ning's eyes were hot and he held back the tears, "But I am a human being. I have my own thoughts and things I care about. I can't stand up for my friends. I can't fight back when I'm bullied. I can't complain when I'm framed. I'm injured. I can’t ask you for help, what do you think I should do? What can I do?”
When she first came to the Gu family, she was thin due to stunted growth, and because she was a child from a rural town, she was rustic and couldn't speak Mandarin well. She was always bullied at school, and she didn't dare to tell Gu Zhiyin when she got home.
Because Gu Zhiyin told her that if she wanted to stay in the Gu family, she should not fight or cause trouble for him.
Later, he cornered her in a corner, beat her up severely, and told her to tell him if she was bullied in the future. Don't hold back and say nothing. If the sky was falling and he was holding on, how could he let his people be bullied?
Gu Zhiyin remained silent, looking down at the aggrieved Mu Ning with his gentle eyes.
The next second, he took a step forward and reached out to wipe away the tears that hurt him.
Mu Ning stepped back and avoided his hand.
Her intention to avoid was very obvious, and Gu Zhiyin felt a little depressed.
"I'm going to rest. Master Gu, please come back."
After saying that, Mu Ning was about to close the door. The moment the door closed, a pale and strong arm stretched out from the crack of the door and grabbed her wrist.
Mu Ning was startled and quickly let go of the door panel, but the door still pressed hard on his hand.
"Gu Zhiyin, you are crazy!"
His hands were already fair, but a bright red indentation was particularly dazzling, and there was also a trace of bruises.
But he didn't notice it at all. He opened the door with one hand, took her wrist with the other and pulled her forward. He bent down and came closer to her, "Don't you call me Master Gu anymore?"
"..."
Mu Ning gritted his teeth. It was already this time. Is there any need to hesitate about calling him?
She shook her hand vigorously, "Let me go."
He was a child after all, with anger written on his face. Gu Zhiyin didn't let go, dispelling the cold air from his body. He looked at her and sighed, his low voice almost coaxing, "Ning Ning, don't be angry. It's my fault. Go back with me now, okay?"
Mu Ning's blood flowed backwards.
She jerked her hand away, "I'm not a child anymore. Don't coax me like you did when you were a child. Just slap me and give me a date, just to make me go back with you."
"Master Gu has never regretted what he said. Master Gu asked me to get out. I'm getting out now. If Master Gu thinks I haven't gotten away far enough, I can disappear even more completely!"
After saying that, without looking at Gu Zhiyin's increasingly ugly face, he slammed the door with a bang.
Gu Zhiyin stood stiffly outside the door, facing the closed door, enduring it again and again.
There was a tenant nearby who was woken up and was just about to express his dissatisfaction. When he opened the door and saw no one, he was frightened by the cold air outside and silently closed the door again.
Song Heng didn't expect that Mr. Gu couldn't take him back.
It seems like it was really hurt this time.
However, it is not impossible for Mr. Gu to take people back.
He reminded in a low voice, "Master Gu, why don't I go to the manager and ask for the room card?"
