A tangle of thoughts kept surging in Gu Miaomiao's heart. Coupled with her eldest brother's strange behavior on the stairs yesterday, Gu Miaomiao always felt a little uneasy.
Everything around her was like shackles, which made Gu Miaomiao feel suffocated.
The cold touch on her neck brought her back to reality.
Gu Miaomiao opened her mouth, and two words popped out from her dry throat:
"Brother..."
"Do not talk."
With a look from Gu Xiuyuan, the servant next to him brought a square mirror and placed it in front of Gu Miaomiao.
Her delicate face was reflected in the mirror.
The eldest brother put a pearl necklace on her, and there was a delicate silver lock on the necklace.
A warm hand was placed on Gu Miaomiao's shoulder. Gu Xiuyuan bent down and said, "How is it? Do you like it?"
Gu Miaomiao's skin in the mirror was as delicate and soft as white jade. Under her slender neck was the beautiful pearl necklace, which made her even more delicate and delicate, like a budding flower.
She wanted to avoid it, but she really didn't dare to disobey Gu Xiuyuan's wishes, especially after she just mentioned something that might make her elder brother angry.
Gu Miaomiao could only stiffen her neck and smile reluctantly in the mirror: "Thank you, brother, I like it very much."
Looking at the picture in the mirror, Gu Miaomiao felt as if her elder brother was holding her neck and she couldn't breathe at all.
She always felt that what the eldest brother was asking about was not the necklace at all...
"Just like it. This is your graduation gift from my eldest brother. The Australian white pearl necklace designed by Kevin, especially its lock cylinder, is very special." Gu Xiuyuan introduced lightly.
Gu Xiuyuan returned to the dining table with an expressionless expression, as if everything just now was her imagination.
The necklace was put in a box and given to her.
The two of them don't really talk much. Maybe it's because of Gu Miaomiao's own psychological suggestion that she always felt like she and her eldest brother broke up on bad terms after breakfast today.
The eldest brother drove her to school after breakfast as usual.
Gu Xiuyuan went out to start the car first, while she was still packing her things.
As a result, when she went out, Gu Miaomiao found that there seemed to be something familiar to her in the garbage carried by the servant.
this.......
She was shocked and called the servant: "Wait, what is that in your hand?"
"Miss, it's the garbage in the living room yesterday..." The servant handed the garbage bag to Gu Miaomiao.
Gu Miaomiao opened the trash bag, and inside was the resume she submitted yesterday, with the name of the company on it...
The resume has been shredded.
Gu Miaomiao held the fragments of her resume in her hands, her limbs felt cold, and her heart was filled with mixed feelings.
In this house, only the eldest brother has the ability to get her resume and do such a thing...
The car started up in the yard and roared.
"What's wrong, Miaomiao, didn't you say you have to go to school today?" Gu Xiuyuan, who was in the yard, noticed that Gu Miaomiao refused to come out, so he walked over here.
Seeing that she was about to walk into the living room, Gu Miaomiao hurriedly picked up the fragments of her resume, stuffed them into her pocket, trotted out of the living room, and smiled at Gu Xiuyuan in the yard:
"Nothing, let's go!"
She subconsciously didn't want her eldest brother to know that she knew about this. She always felt that if he found out, something bad would happen. She didn't want to have a quarrel with him.
In short, at least not now.
Gu Xiuyuan looked at the servant standing in the living room carrying a garbage bag, and then looked meaningfully at Gu Miaomiao, who had already hurriedly got into the car. His eyes fell on her bulging jacket pockets, but he still said nothing.
When they were in the car, Gu Miaomiao was sitting in the passenger seat and specifically put her phone away to prevent Gu Xiuyuan from seeing the content on her phone. She tremblingly took out her phone and searched for the company she went to interview with yesterday.
Fortunately, Gu Xiuyuan was driving and did not pay attention to Gu Miaomiao's situation. As usual, he chatted with Gu Miaomiao all the time:
"Miaomiao, the rest of the Gu family didn't look for you again, right?"
"Oh, no, I didn't see them again." Gu Miaomiao answered Gu Xiuyuan's questions one after another, her mind focused on her mobile phone.
The more she checked, the more frightened she became.
Sure enough... the thing that worried her the most happened.
Although the company's equity relationship went through most of the circle and there was no sign of Gu Sheng, in the end it was found that the eldest brother was actually the controlling shareholder.
Gu Miaomiao's heart went cold for a moment, she turned off her phone, sighed, and leaned on the passenger chair as if resigned to her fate.
Do you have to be related to the Gu family for the rest of your life? Why can't the eldest brother let her go and let her go out to find a job that can support herself?
There was a throbbing pain in her heart.
"Why are you sighing?" Gu Xiuyuan glanced at Gu Miaomiao and asked.
"It's okay, brother."
Hearing Gu Miaomiao's answer, Gu Xiuyuan didn't say anything. He just pressed the hand holding the steering wheel a little harder. Because of too much force, the hand lost its original color.
Soon, the car drove near the school.
"Thank you, brother." Gu Miaomiao said absently as she had been thinking about what happened just now.
Gu Miaomiao actually didn't really want her eldest brother to send her to school.
Because her eldest brother’s car could easily cause other students to misunderstand that she was hired.
But Gu Xiuyuan disagreed.
You must send her to school and see her walking inside the school.
Later, Gu Xiuyuan actually made a compromise. He bought himself a very low-key car. Gu Miaomiao could barely accept it, so she had to give it up.
The air conditioner in the car was actually not hot, but Gu Miaomiao felt that what she had just said about her resume had made her brain congested, and she urgently needed a quiet place to calm down.
She suppressed her emotions, tried to keep herself normal, and left the car. It would not be too late to cry when her eldest brother was gone.
But Gu Xiuyuan, who was running in the business world, was not a vegetarian, so of course he noticed her subtle differences.
He deliberately did not unlock the car door.
When Gu Miaomiao opened the door, she found that the door could not be opened and was still locked, so she asked Gu Xiuyuan for help:
"Brother, the door can't be opened. Please unlock it..."
