Gu Chen’s eyes widened instantly. He looked at Shen Xi and explained anxiously, “Xi, that’s not true. I don’t know why my second uncle suddenly said that. I’m sorry. I apologize to you on his behalf. But believe me, this is not why I invited you here today.”
“Gu Chen, I may have a bad memory, but I don’t have a problem with my brain. In the Ninghai Project, Gu family has taken on the most projects. There are so many batches of goods being shipped 24 hours a day, and there will be projects that the Gu family is working on. Therefore, it won’t be easy to move them quietly from the construction site. The Gu family was covering for each other, wasn’t it?” Shen Xi’s words were sharp.
“l didn’t expect you to take me this way, Xi,” Gu Chen said with a bitter smile.
Seeing Gu Chen’s hurt expression, Shen Xi’s heart felt a little uncomfortable, but she continued, “Don’t worry about what I think. Let me ask you, is the Gu family covering for Gu An and framing my father?”
Gu Chen shook his head with a bitter smile, “Xi, I didn’t participate in the Ninghai Project this time. The subsidiary companies under the Gu family are all under my second uncle’s name. The reason why I’m representing the Gu family to work with your company is because of my second uncle’s request. If you don’t believe me, I can check them one by one for you.”
Shen Xi was slightly taken aback. She never thought that this would be the case.
She was surprised that Gu Chen did not participate in a project under his name.
Shen Xi’s expression was a little uneasy, and she didn’t know how to react.
On the other side, Gu Chen revealed a sorrowful smile and said, “l know that there’s a misunderstanding between us because of Meng Yu’s matter. In addition, Meng Yu was hunted down previously. Although it was my second uncle’s men, it was indeed Gu family who did it. But, can you be fair to me? I’ll be upset if the girl I love misunderstood me.”
A strange pain came from Shen Xi’s heart. She had an inexplicable urge to go forward and hug the man in front of her.
The pain in her heart quickly spread to Shen Xi’s mind. Shen Xi instantly covered her head and looked at Gu Chen with a painful expression.
“Young miss, what’s wrong?” Shen Luan who was beside her, quickly supported Shen Xi and asked worriedly.
On the other side, Gu Chen also rushed forward to see Shen Xi. Lu Fei
stretched out his hand and placed it between Gu Chen and Shen Xi. He said coldly, “Master Gu, keep your distance.”
“Xi, look at me and listen to me.” Gu Chen could only whisper when he was one step away from Shen Xi, “Now, take a deep breath slowly and empty your mind. Don’t think about anything. Just look at me.”
Shen Xi looked at Gu Chen with her red eyes. She followed Gu Chen’s rhythm and calmed down after a few breaths. Even her headache was relieved. When Shen Luan saw this, she frowned and exchanged glances with Lu Fei.
This was not right!
After a while, Shen Xi regained her composure. She looked at Gu Chen and said apologetically, “I’m sorry for what happened just now. I misunderstood you.”
Gu Chen just smiled and shook his head. His beautiful eyes looked at Shen Xi affectionately and said, “It’s okay. As long as we talk it out, I’m fine.”
Shen Xi tried her best to keep her mind clear. She said to Gu Chen, “I’ll go back first. I’ll deal with my father’s matter myself.”
“Xi, I just want to help you. Don’t worry, I’ll convince my second uncle.” Gu Chen said as he looked at Shen Xi’s back.
“No need.” Shen Xi said coldly.
Her heart was in a mess at this time. It was as if all her memories had come out yelling at her, ‘Gu Chen is your lover. He loves you deeply and you loved him too. Why did you suspect him? Why didn’t you trust him? Why did you have to make him sad?’
Shen Xi couldn’t stand such accusations. Right now, she just wanted to escape.
“Let’s go!” Shen Xi said coldly.
After that, she left the Gu family with Shen Luan and Lu Fei.
Gu Chen lowered his eyes slightly and smiled, revealing a stunning face.
Gu An walked in from outside again. She looked at Gu Chen with a humble expression and begged, “Chen, I’ve done everything you asked me to do and say.. When will you help me save Xia Chun?”
