Chapter 822: Conspiracy
out a second thought, he immediately hung up the phone.He stared at his phone for a long time, then suddenly burst into laughter as if he had gone mad.Though it was just a "hello," he still recognized...Lü Jìyán wanted to hear this sentence. Hearing Gu Kēyǔ say that, he felt relieved: "Very good. Hearing you say that, I feel relieved."
The car drove on, and for some reason, Gu Ke'yu felt that the time spent with Lu Jiayan always passed quickly. They arrived at the village.
The house, left unoccupied for a long time, was filled with cobwebs and dust. Being in the countryside, it looked particularly messy.
Looking at such a house, Gu Ke Yu smiled at Lu Ji Yan: "Why don't you go sit in the car for a while, and I'll finish cleaning up and then..." come over.
However, before she could finish her words, Lu Jiyan directly started rolling up his sleeves to get to work. His movements were nimble and efficient, not like someone who had never done housework.
Gu Ke'yu was stunned for a moment, but she didn't continue to stop him. She followed forward to help clean up.
After the room was cleaned, Gu Ke'yu smiled and looked at Lu Jiayan, praising him without thinking: "I didn't expect you to be so capable. I thought you wouldn't do anything!"
Lu Jiyan's tone was light: "What's the matter When I wasn't back at Lu's house, I had to do everything myself. These are child's play."
Although he spoke in a calm tone, Gu Keyu could hear the turmoil beneath his words. Her heart ached with a sense of distress.
Lu Jiuyan understood Gu Keyu very well. At a glance, he knew what she was thinking. He patted her head: "Alright, don't just stand here like an idiot."
Those things are in the past, what matters most is now and the future.
But right now, Lu Jiuyan was very interested in Gu Ke'yu's childhood. He touched her head and said, "Take me to the place where you lived as a child."
Gu Ke Yu knew that Lu Ji Yan was concerned about her, and he was also changing the subject. She simply didn't pursue it any further, but instead pulled Lu Ji Yan away.
When leaving, Lu Jiayan's car was surrounded by many villagers. Because his car was a luxury car, many people in the village had never seen it before, so they were all discussing it.
Seeing this scene, Gu Ke'yu hurriedly pulled Lu Jiyan away, but was still seen by a few people. They gossiped there, saying that Gu Ke'yu had flown up a branch to become a phoenix.
Rumors spread quickly in the village, becoming common knowledge in no time.
Gu Ke Yu explained to Lu Ji Yan: "Just ignore those words, treat them as wind passing by your ears, don't take them to heart."
Lu Jiayan hummed in response.
Two people walked along the road. Gu Ke'yu pointed to a dilapidated iron gate in the distance: "Do you see that rusty iron gate over there That's where I went to kindergarten when I was little, but that period of my childhood wasn't very pleasant."
Saying that, Gu Ke Yu stuck her tongue out at Lu Ji Yan. Although she pretended to be nonchalant, Lu Ji Yan could still see the ups and downs of her emotions.
He held her hand tighter, listening as she continued.
"Back then, all the children didn't like me, but they liked Gu Kejun instead. She was the big sister of kindergarten. Because of this, many people bullied me and even kicked me out, not letting me attend classes."
Gu Ke'yu pulled out a mocking smile. She and Gu Kejun had been at odds since they were very young; it was destined to be this way.
"It's alright, I will always protect you by your side. I was powerless in the past, but now and in the future, I will do better!"
Touched by his assurance, Gu Ke'yu said, “Why don’t I take you to the orphanage There’s nothing much to see there, and it holds some unpleasant memories…”
Lu Jiuyan agreed: "Okay, let's go then."
But Gu Ke'yu regretted it the moment her words left her mouth. She suddenly became nervous, what if Lu Jiyan remembered something How would she deal with that
Will he ever know...that she's not really Xiao Yu at all
Gu Ke Yu felt a pang of anxiety. She was afraid her lie would be exposed, leading to the end of her relationship with Lu Ji Yan. After all, this relationship was hard-won for her, and she didn't want it to evaporate into thin air.
"How can I stop Lü Jiayan from going to the orphanage"
Gu Ke Yu's mind raced, her steps slowing involuntarily. As she walked, she suddenly stopped, bent down, and pretended to rub her leg, calling out to Lu Ji Yan: "Aiya..."
Lu Jiuyan turned and saw Gu Keyu bending over, so he walked over and supported her, asking, "What's wrong Where are you uncomfortable" Lu Jiuyan's words were full of concern.
Gu Ke'yu's face showed a hint of pain, her voice weary as she said, "Lu Jiuyan, after traveling such a long way, I feel quite tired. My legs are aching badly. How about we go back" There was a touch of coquettishness in Gu Ke'yu's words, and at this moment, she was putting on an excellent performance.
"Where does it hurt I thought you said your leg was fine. Walking so far, you must be tired. Come on, let me carry you," Lu Jiayan said without hesitation. As he spoke, he crouched down and gestured for Gu Ke Yu to climb onto his back.
Gu Ke Yu didn't expect Lu Ji Yan to be so insistent on going to the orphanage. He thought he would go back because he was tired, but now he was going to carry him on his back. This left Gu Ke Yu at a loss for words. He frowned and stood there dumbfounded, without any reaction.
Lu Jiayan saw Gu Ke'yu like this, thinking she was embarrassed, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, are you still embarrassed It's okay, come up!"
After a slight hesitation, Gu Ke Yu simply didn't say anything more. He lightly climbed onto Lu Ji Yan's back. Lu Ji Yan slowly got up and walked towards the orphanage like that.
Although Gu Ke Yu was extremely reluctant to go to the orphanage, she didn't want to keep living this way. After all, lies always get exposed one day. Even if she hadn't gone to the orphanage with Lu Ji Yan today, he would still come with her later. So, it's better to endure the pain all at once than to drag it out.
However, after arriving at the orphanage, things didn't develop as Gu Ke'yu thought. Perhaps considering Gu Ke'yu's relationship, Lu Jiayan just wandered around the orphanage without going in, with her back to Gu Ke'yu. After a while, the two left.
Lu Jiayan sent Gu Ke'yu back home, and then he received a phone call, apparently there was an important matter in the company that needed him to deal with. Lu Jiayan, who has always been decisive and efficient at work, didn't stay long. He simply informed Gu Ke'yu, and then left the village.
Actually, Lu Jiayan had already made time out of his busy schedule to accompany Ke Yu back. After all, with a company of that size, big and small matters needed his attention. For this, Ke Yu understood very well.
Gu Ke'yu's life in the countryside wasn't easy. Because of his personality, the villagers favored Gu Kejun more, while Gu Ke'yu wasn't well-liked. After Lu Jiayan left, Gu Ke'yu became even less willing to go out, staying indoors all the time. When he was bored, he would play with his phone or something.ns with the "Back to the Past" mode were like this.What puzzled Su Kexin was that no matter what she asked, "Returning to the Past" would always say, "You'll know soon enough."It's like giving her a c...
