Gu Xiuyuan did not help her unlock the door, but restarted the car.
Gu Miaomiao opened the car door and looked at Gu Xiuyuan in disbelief: "Well, where are we going? I have to go to class today."
"Don't be in a hurry in class."
Gu Xiuyuan parked the car in a secluded place with lush trees, put his hands on the steering wheel, and asked unhurriedly: "What I want to know more is, why are you unhappy on the road today? Did something happen to you? ?”
She didn't expect Gu Xiuyuan to ask this. Gu Miaomiao's pupils shrank. She wanted to directly ask Gu Xiuyuan why he trapped her in the Gu family like a canary.
To her, the Gu family was like a bottomless ocean, trapping her tightly in it.
Although she was wearing an oxygen mask, the oxygen mask was too fragile. It was like her fig leaf and would break as soon as it was opened.
As soon as the oxygen mask was damaged, she would be unable to breathe and fall into the deep sea forever.
After all the deliberation, Gu Miaomiao was on the verge of an emotional outburst.
She could only force out a smile, suppress the sadness in her heart, and try her best to behave normally:
"No, I just graduated recently, and it's hard to avoid feeling a little sad when I think of everyone going their separate ways."
She subconsciously told another lie, in order to protect the dignity between the two of them, which was in danger and was about to collapse.
Gu Xiuyuan tore up her resume, which basically confirmed the fact that he was deliberately preventing her from going to work behind her back.
This was different from Gu Xiuyuan's warning in the morning. Controlling her behavior behind her back like this clearly went beyond what a family member should do.
Gu Xiuyuan had helped her so much over the years, and even helped her move out of the Gu family directly. She didn't want to embarrass Gu Xiuyuan, even if the victim was herself.
What's more, Gu Xiuyuan never agreed to let her go out to find a job, so she always felt that she was going out to find a job without permission, and she felt a little guilty and guilty in her heart.
"Well, really." The shade of the trees outside the window covered Gu Xiuyuan's face. He sighed, laughed silently, and laughed twice more, with a clear voice.
Then Gu Xiuyuan repeated Gu Miaomiao's words in a playful low voice: "Because it's too sad to go our separate ways...ha."
With a heart-stopping smile on his lips, he shook his head slightly and complimented Gu Miaomiao inexplicably, "Miaomiao, you are so cute lately."
Gu Miaomiao showed a confused and puzzled expression, and looked carefully at Gu Xiuyuan who was sitting in the driving seat.
Gu Xiuyuan quickly regained his cool expression.
He took out the pile of resumes that she tore up at the door from Gu Miaomiao's pocket, took her hand and put it in her hand.
The broken resume was light and heavy, but it hit Gu Miaomiao's heart like a heavy hammer.
Her right eyelid twitched, and the thoughts in her mind were chaotic, like a pile of tangled mess, and she said incoherently: "What...what is this?"
"You don't know? Then let me read it for you." Gu Xiuyuan was happy and seemed to be in a good mood. He took the pile of fragments in Gu Miaomiao's hand and said for Gu Miaomiao:
"Resume, company applying for, boating company, name, Gu Miaomiao, gender, female..."
The resume read from Gu Xiuyuan's mouth was like a slap on Gu Miaomiao's face, reminding her of every lie she had ever told, making her extremely ashamed.
Gu Miaomiao's voice was slightly louder and she shouted anxiously: "No!"
But she finally made sense, so her voice returned to normal, "Please, stop reading..."
Gu Xiuyuan really didn't read it anymore. He threw his resume at Gu Miaomiao's feet with a serious look and said gloomily: "Don't you have anything to explain?"
Gu Miaomiao didn't expect that Gu Xiuyuan would directly expose this fig leaf.
The emotions in her heart finally couldn't be suppressed anymore, and a sourness surged into her stomach and throat.
She instantly felt that she could not breathe normally. Tears immediately fell from her eyes, and she shouted in a tearful voice:
"Gu Xiuyuan, don't you think you are going too far? I joined the job based on my own abilities. Why do you use your privileges to get me kicked off?! I can obviously go!"
Gu Xiuyuan laughed angrily and asked: "Ability? I admit that you have ability, but which one of the applicants does not have ability? Why do you think you can quickly stand out among many applicants? Is it because you have no work experience? Or is it because you have no work experience? Your pampered lifestyle? Isn’t it because it’s my subsidiary and they know you are mine?!”
Gu Miaomiao's eyes were filled with disbelief.
No wonder the interviewer was so kind to her that day and asked questions so smoothly. It turned out...it was all because she was a family person!
This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Gu Miaomiao.
Gu Xiuyuan was right. Even if she was already strong enough, she was still qualified to enter the company based on the identity Gu Xiuyuan gave her.
She was speechless.
The two people just looked at each other.
A trace of stubbornness flashed in Gu Miaomiao's eyes and she said, "I will never forget the kindness that the Gu family and you have shown me. I will always find a way to work hard to repay you."
"What do you want to repay?" Gu Xiuyuan sneered, and his slender hand touched Gu Miaomiao's young cheek.
Gu Miaomiao dodged away. Her mind was in a mess now. After thinking for a long time, she said:
"I will try to find other jobs to make money and give you back all the money you spent on me."
Gu Xiuyuan was dodged, a trace of displeasure and danger flashed in his eyes, he looked up and down Gu Miaomiao's body, inadvertently lifted Gu Miaomiao's collar, and said with a stern expression:
"Miss, what's the one thing on your body that I didn't buy for you? The food is the most expensive and the clothes are the best. Please tell me, miss, what do you want to repay with the three or four thousand a month you applied for?" Do you want to pay back your salary without food or drink for the rest of your life?"
"...!!!" Gu Miaomiao was choked and speechless for a moment. She wanted to refute, but Gu Xiuyuan was right.
I have been raised by him, but the shirt I am wearing today costs tens of thousands, and the salary of four thousand a month, even if I don't have food, drink, or shelter, it still takes years to pay it off.
Not to mention there are so many other things...
"I would like to remind you that I am a businessman. I have never made a loss-making business since I took over Gu Sheng. You are just an outsider to the Gu family. The money I spend on you should be considered an investment, right?" Gu Xiuyuan raised his head He tilted his head with a very dangerous look in his eyes, "I have raised you so well, but you just turn around and want to kick me away. Isn't it appropriate, young lady?"
Outsiders...Gu Miaomiao's mind is filled with the word "outsiders" now.
Yes, she was an outsider without biological parents who had been raised by the Gu family since she was a child. She was also an outsider who moved out to live in Gu Xiuyuan's house.
Bits and pieces of scenes of being bullied by the Gu family in the past flooded into his mind.
Big drops of hot tears fell on the back of her hand. Gu Miaomiao shook her head in collapse and said:
"No, I have not forgotten. I have always known that I am an outsider to the Gu family, and you are the family!"
"You are finally willing to tell the truth, right?" Gu Xiuyuan laughed angrily. The little girl's words were easily tricked out. "You are not from the Gu family to begin with. If you move here, you are mine. Investment income points Interest, isn’t this normal?”
"You... that's me... um..."
Junyi's face suddenly enlarged, and he kissed her roughly.
Gu Miaomiao was like a bolt from the blue, and her mind exploded in her brain.
Gu Xiuyuan...what is he doing...
Occasionally someone would pass by outside the car, and even if they saw them, they would just think they were a couple in love.
The kiss lasted so long that Gu Miaomiao thought she was going to die in the car due to lack of oxygen.
Seeing that Gu Miaomiao finally behaved and stopped saying things he didn't like, Gu Xiuyuan let her go with a soft hum.
She didn't dare to move at all. She had never seen Gu Xiuyuan like this before.
This frightened her very much.
After Gu Miaomiao was let go, she still didn't react and touched her lips blankly.
She was...kissed by Gu Xiuyuan?
Gu Xiuyuan's cold threat brought her back to reality:
"Miaomiao, am I really too good to you, making you think that you can leave the Gu family at any time, eh? You are not allowed to look for a job anymore, just stay at home obediently. I want to see you at any time when I get home, If I find out that you are still looking for a job, next time... it won't be such a simple punishment."
Gu Miaomiao took a breath, and she subconsciously covered the corners of her lips that had just been touched by Gu Xiuyuan. The tenderness from earlier still remained on the corners of her lips.
Gu Xiuyuan said nothing.
But Gu Miaomiao had already understood what he meant with her years of experience in getting along with him.
She could not resist Gu Xiuyuan, nor was she willing to resist her elder brother. In her eyes, Gu Xiuyuan would always be as important as a real relative. It was he who rescued her from the Gu family.
In this world, her only relative is Gu Xiuyuan.
But something like that happened again just now.
Her current mood is very contradictory, so contradictory that it feels like her heart has been crushed, then expanded, and crushed again.
Gu Miaomiao wiped away the tears on her face and said stubbornly: "I know..."
"Yes." Gu Xiuyuan unlocked the car door, "Get out of the car."
