Chapter 17: We Go Home

lked towards the baggage claim area one after the other under everyone's gaze. 。As the two figures disappeared into the distance, the crowd buzzed with conversation once more. 。"You said Gu Chi acquir..."I don't think I can eat," she said, trying to make her voice sound casual, "Because I have a cold and I don't want to infect anyone else."

Gu Zhi was silent on the phone for a moment, then asked, "Where are you now"

"I'm at Yuehai Villa. That... you have dinner first, let Zhang Ma keep a bowl of porridge for me, I'll be back soon."

After Su Keixin finished speaking, there was a deathly silence on the other end of the phone. She frowned involuntarily and glanced at her phone, only to find that it had automatically shut down because it was out of power.

Damn it. Of all times, why now No battery at all!

Su Keqin pressed her phone several times, somewhat annoyed, but there was still no response. She suddenly felt a bit on the verge of collapse.

Her phone was out of battery, how was she going to get home

Su Keqin strained her memory, trying to recall the location of the bus stop near the Lin family's home. She walked forward in that direction.

Ironically, she was still wearing high heels today. After just a few steps, her heels were already hurting.

The Yuehai Villa district was very large; she felt like she had been walking for a long time and still hadn't made it out.

The night wind was biting, and Su Ke Xin's clothes were thin. She couldn't help but pull her coat tighter, gritting her teeth and continuing to walk forward.

After walking a few more steps, she suddenly saw car lights flashing ahead.

Su Keqin was a little excited for a moment, thinking it might be a taxi, but she quickly became disappointed; it was a black private car.

It makes sense, there wouldn't be any taxis in this neighborhood. The people who live here are simply not from the same world as me.

But...

This car, how come it seems a little familiar

Su KeXin hadn't had time to think about it when she suddenly saw the car slowly driving in front of her and stopping.

The car door opened, the metal panel lowered, and a man in a wheelchair slowly slid down.

Su Keixin's body stiffened.

The halo of the car lights illuminated the man's back, his face was obscured by the backlight, but the faint shadow still outlined the perfect lines of his facial features.

This is Gu Zhi.

For a moment, Su Keqin was so astonished that she couldn't even utter a word.

Gu Chi's wheelchair stopped in front of Su Ke Xin, looking at her somewhat stunned expression, he didn't feel angry, instead, he found it rather cute.

He curled the corners of his lips into a slight smile and asked, “What Did you see that I wasn't happy”

Su Ke Xin only then came to her senses, instinctively shaking her head, "How could I not be happy..."

To be precise, it should be happy.

At her most helpless and desperate, when she was utterly exhausted, Gu Chi appeared before her once again, like a savior pulling her out of the abyss of despair.

"Is that so" Hearing Su Ke Xin's words, Gu Chi's smile deepened, "Then let's go."

Su Keixin nodded, but just as she was about to get in the car, her high heels rubbed against the blister on her heel, and she couldn't help but gasp.

"What's wrong" Gu Chi keenly noticed Su Ke Xin's oddity. He saw her frowning at her own feet.

Gu Chi frowned slightly, his gaze also falling on Su Kexin's ankle, and immediately saw the heel that had been rubbed raw with blood.

"It's nothing, just my shoes rubbing against my feet. A lot of girls have this problem, I'll just put a band-aid on it tomorrow. Ah... What are you doing Gu Chi, you..."

Su Kexin's face suddenly flushed red because Gu Chi unexpectedly leaned down and grasped her ankle.

Gu Zhi sat in the wheelchair, he was naturally a little lower than Su Ke Xin. Therefore, when he bent down, he naturally lifted Su Ke Xin's scraped left foot.

The articulated fingers brushed against Su Kexin's abraded wound, Gu Chi's handsome eyebrows furrowed even tighter, "It's bleeding"

Gu Zhi's hand was coarse with the masculinity unique to men. The place where Su Ke Xin had been rubbed raw was already sensitive, and now that it was touched, a strange feeling spread through Su Ke Xin's body like electricity, starting from her ankle and surging all over.

"It's just a minor injury." For some reason, Su Ke Xin felt her heart racing and a bit flustered as she tried to speak, but Gu Chi seemed not to hear her. He simply removed her shoes.

Then he took her hand, pulling with all his might. The unprepared Su Ke Xin cried out "ah" and fell into Gu Chi's embrace.

Gu Chi sat in his wheelchair, Su Ke Xin leaning against his leg, the distance between them suddenly became very close.

"Gu Chi, what is this..."

Such close contact made Su Keqin even more flustered, but Gu Chi didn't pay attention to her. He simply turned his wheelchair towards the car and said in a low voice, "Let's go home."ssed. Almost all the employees in the supermarket had left, only Zhao Yino and Ling Chen were still busy. 。Everyone was very nosy and especially left her space for some alone time. 。Since the last hos...
