Quick Transmigration: After Fake Death, All the Protagonists I Flirted With Went Crazy

Chapter 261 Family and Country in Dire Straits (31)

He Yanshen was taken aback when he heard this. His eyes looked hurt as he looked at Xu Qing, and his hands, which were hanging at his sides, clenched into fists.

His lips trembled. "Aqing, is this how you see me?"

Xu Qing remained silent.

"In your eyes, I'm the kind of person who grabs people indiscriminately, is that right?"

Xu Qing pursed her lips, looked away, and dared not look at He Yanshen's eyes again. She didn't really think that way, but she just wanted to say it out loud.

"Isn't that right? You dare say you didn't arrest my older sister and force me to help you solve the case!"

If it weren't for that encounter, he wouldn't have had any entanglement with He Yanshen.

Otherwise, the relationship wouldn't be in such a tangled mess now.

He couldn't figure it out, and he didn't want to.

There is no real official status.

It was the chaos caused by alcohol that led to this current state.

muddle along.

He knew perfectly well that this was wrong, but he still couldn't let go.

He has always preferred men; he has always known that.

It was precisely because he liked boys that he was so cruelly teased when he was studying abroad.

If it weren't for Gu Yao, he might have died in a foreign land long ago.

But he dared not say it.

He dared not tell his family that he had been burdened with too many expectations since childhood.

As the only son of the Xu family, he carried a heavy burden.

He already knew the path his family had laid out for him.

Or perhaps, delusional thoughts arose.

A heart full of delusions and desires nurtured a flower named He Yanshen.

Rooted in the heart, deeply ingrained.

It can't be pulled out, and it can't be burned out.

She shouldn't have dragged He Yanshen into this mess, but she still couldn't let go.

He couldn't escape the urging from his family.

So be it.

It's good to let go.

The sky is high enough for birds to fly freely; He Yanshen deserves a wider world to explore.

Xu Qing dared not look up at the person in front of him, afraid of seeing hatred in those eyes that were always full of gentle smiles. He could only endure the pain in his heart and say, "Detective He, please leave."

He Yanshen lowered his head and didn't say anything more, but silently turned and left.

As they approached the door, He Yanshen turned to look at the person sitting in the chair. "Xu Qing, I'm sorry for arresting the wrong person, but based on the evidence at the time, she was indeed highly suspicious. If you're angry, I'll personally apologize to her when she returns to Shanghai."

However, I don't regret arresting her back then; if I had the chance to do it again, I would still do the same. You're angry now, I'll visit you another day.

Xu Qing looked up, but only saw the departing figure.

Cold and resolute, as if there would be no turning back.

A faint, tingling pain rose in my heart, an emptiness, as if a piece of me had been ripped out and then crushed into ashes in the air, never to be seen again.

So be it.

He Yanshen should find someone who loves him wholeheartedly.

He had no qualms, nor did he seem to be a liar like him.

Xu Qing leaned back wearily in the chair.

This is the scene that He Yanshen saw when he returned.

He stood in front of the door, gazing at Xu Qing in the distance.

His Ah Qing seemed to have all his energy drained away, leaving only an empty shell walking through the world.

A sharp, stabbing pain shot through my heart.

He Yanshen did not enter the room, nor did he give out the birthday gifts he had prepared for others.

He stopped.

His Ah Qing was so proud that he wouldn't want anyone to see him in such a disheveled state.

As I turned to leave, a car stopped in front of the door.

Gu Yao was helped out of the car by Yan Yu.

His steps were unsteady, as if he had been beaten up.

Is there anyone who can beat this pervert up?!

He Yanshen's neck wound throbbed with pain, but he breathed a sigh of relief the moment he saw Gu Yao.

At least no one was hurt.

He stepped forward and stopped the two of them.

At least they can't go in right now.

Xu Qing's pride was so great that even he had to keep it hidden, not letting a speck of dust taint it.

How can I let others point fingers at me?

Gu Yao was already feeling unwell, and if he hadn't insisted, Yan Yu would never have let him suffer.

But now someone is actually stopping him?

Although he enjoyed the feeling of Gu Yao relying on him, seeing the discomfort on Gu Yao's face, Yan Yu even felt a little resentful towards himself.

Did he hit too hard?

But I couldn't help it.

A jumble of images flashed through my mind, making my breathing a little rapid.

He turned his head to look at Gu Yao, and under the slightly disheveled collar, he could vaguely see some red.

It stands out particularly against the fair background.

And this is just the tip of the iceberg.

Yan Yu took a deep breath and struggled to turn his head away.

The gentleman couldn't bear it.

to beat.

Gu Yao felt somewhat awkward when he saw He Yanshen.

"Six o'clock, newsstand."

When he woke up in the morning, he was so focused on recalling those socially charged moments that his mind went blank, and he forgot about the incident.

By the time he remembered, it was already too late; the die was cast.

After that, I don't remember much.

I woke up four hours later.

Thinking of this, Gu Yao's ears couldn't help but turn red. He turned his head and coughed lightly twice. "Detective He, is there something you need?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Yu also looked up at the person in front of him, his eyes filled with intense scrutiny. He subtly pulled Gu Yao closer to him, avoiding He Yanshen's prying eyes.

He Yanshen felt somewhat helpless.

What's with this guarded-up-against-thief setup?

Gu Yao reached out and slapped away Yan Yu's hand that was blocking his way.

"Don't make trouble."

He then turned to He Yanshen and asked, "Detective He, what brings you here?"

He Yanshen had stopped the person in a moment of impulsiveness, but now he was somewhat at a loss. His fingertips accidentally touched a hard object in his pocket, and he took a deep breath.

"Please give this to Aqing."

Gu Yao raised an eyebrow as he looked at the small, square box that was being presented to him.

This brand of watch isn't cheap.

He must have spent a lot of money on He Yanshen.

He didn't agree easily, but looked at the person in front of him with a wicked mockery, "Why should I help you?"

He Yanshen pursed his lips, did not answer, but made a gesture as if to withdraw his hand.

The watch in her hand was snatched away by Gu Yao.

"Let me do you a favor today and help you out."

He Yanshen was taken aback. The young man had already stepped onto the steps in front of the Xu family's gate, waved the box at him, and without saying anything, turned around and entered the Xu family's gate.

Yan Yu followed Gu Yao inside.

He Yanshen scratched his head, wondering if he was seeing things. The way the Jinbei commander was supporting Gu Yao seemed so strange.

That hand seemed to be stuck to Gu Yao's waist.

As soon as Gu Yao stepped through the gate, Xu Qing hurriedly came out.

He breathed a huge sigh of relief the moment he saw Gu Yao.

He took two steps forward, snatched the person from Yan Yu's hands, and checked him over and over many times.

Once he was sure everyone was alright, he pulled Gu Yao to his side and stared at Yan Yu with a wary look.

Yan Yu: "..."

Gu Yao was suddenly pulled by Xu Qing, and the force was so strong that Gu Yao, whose legs were already weak, almost fell over.

Xu Qing, however, had already fully entered battle mode, watching Yan Yu unleash his full power in front of him.

"What is Commander Yan doing here at my Xu family? My Xu family does not welcome someone who has abducted our distinguished guest."

Yan Yu ignored Xu Qing completely.

His gaze fell on Gu Yao's outstretched hand, and he withdrew the hand that had been raised to support Gu Yao.

Seeing the pained expression on Gu Yao's face, Yan Yu frowned.

He didn't answer Xu Qing's question, but reached out to bring the person back, only to be stopped by Xu Qing.

The way he stared at Yan Yu was as if he were staring at some lecherous man.

Yan Yu took a deep breath and told herself that this was Gu Yao's friend.

Don't get angry, explain it properly.

Don't put the gentleman in a difficult position.

"The gentleman is not feeling well. You pulled too hard just now and made him uncomfortable."

Xu Qing was taken aback.

Yan Yu stepped forward and let Gu Yao lean against him again.

Gu Yao, who suddenly fell into someone's arms, was speechless. Actually, he wasn't that fragile.

I'm just feeling a little uncomfortable.

However, he wouldn't refuse Yan Yu's kindness.

He enjoyed the feeling of being cherished by someone he liked.

It's like... it's like finding a long-lost harbor.

It would allow his lonely, adrift cruise ship to find a place to dock.

You can rest well in this safe haven, avoid the wind and rain, and wait for the next sunny day.

And that's exactly how Gu Yao feels right now.

Looking at the two people snuggling together, Xu Qing felt extremely superfluous.

It seems he's made things worse than he intended.

But seeing the intimacy between the two, he felt a little envious.

A heavy, suffocating feeling settled over me.
