Chapter 415 The Beginning of Everything 6
Xie Gui ignored the heartbroken Si Yan and dragged the child into his own corridor.
Even as you pass by Si Yan, you have to add insult to injury by saying, "The child is hungry, tell your kitchen to serve the food faster."
Si Yan: "..."
It's so bad that even passing dogs get kicked.
numb.
Looking at the two people with such a large height difference, Si Yan touched his chin, feeling that something was not quite right.
This feeling of unease reached its peak in Si Yan's heart when Xie Gui reached out and touched Gu Yao's head.
hiss.
Didn't see it.
Xie Gui took the menu and handed it to Gu Yao, "Kid, take a look, what would you like to eat?"
Gu Yao looked at Xie Gui's eager appearance, pursed his lips, but did not take the menu. He lowered his eyes and pretended to be obedient, "Brother Xie, you can handle it as you see fit."
Xie Gui clicked his tongue, closed the menu in his hand, and waved to the waiter beside him, "The usual."
The waiter went down to the pavilion in the lake, which was particularly elegant, with gauze curtains fluttering all around and a professional musician playing the guqin not far away.
It is exceptionally elegant.
Perfect VIP seating.
Gu Yao felt somewhat uneasy. Once the waiter left, only he and Xie Gui remained in the pavilion, and he felt a little nervous.
Gu Yao took a deep breath, looked up to meet Xie Gui's scrutinizing gaze, and a sweet smile appeared on her lips.
"Brother Xie, what's wrong?"
Xie Gui raised an eyebrow, tapping his fingertips lightly on the table, his gaze towards Gu Yao filled with a hint of piercing intensity. "Kid, why did you choose to come with me?"
Gu Yao was taken aback, not expecting Xie Gui to ask this question first.
He thought for a moment, then stared brightly at the person in front of him, "Because, Brother Xie is a good person."
Xie Gui's fingers paused, a hint of interest appearing in his eyes. "So you mean your uncles and elders aren't good people?"
Gu Yao smiled sweetly and shook her head, "I didn't say that, Brother Xie, don't talk nonsense."
The child smiled happily, but there was no hint of denial in his light-colored eyes.
Xie Gui withdrew his gaze, his fingertips resting on the rim of the cup, gently stroking it, pondering for the first time whether what he had done was right or wrong.
I have a feeling this kid is a bit troublesome.
He has always hated trouble the most.
Gu Yao smiled but didn't say anything. He simply turned his head to look at the koi in the lake.
She was very well taken care of.
It looks like...
It tastes delicious.
It's a pity it's not from his family.
Gu Yao sighed softly.
I wonder to what extent Xie Gui has been tolerant of himself?
Would she easily send herself back to her family home?
The thought of having to fight for custody of the child made Gu Yao shudder.
His uncle was a bad guy, and the others weren't much better.
And his cousin...
Gu Yao pursed his lips, his hand gripping the cup turning slightly white.
He won't let them off easily this time.
His light-colored eyes were slightly lowered, carrying a hint of gloom.
Si Yan, carrying dishes and fanning herself, strode over to Gu Yao with a flamboyant gait.
"Come, come, distinguished guests. I will personally serve you the dishes today. Would you do me the honor of dining with me at the same table?"
Xie Gui frowned, looking at the flamboyant Si Yan. Just as the man was about to sit down next to Gu Yao, he reached out and grabbed him, taking the tray from his hands and placing it steadily on the table. He waved his hand dismissively, "Don't get in my way. Go play somewhere else."
Si Yan turned around and plopped down next to Gu Yao, snapping his folding fan shut and smiling brightly at Gu Yao. "Little Yao, look at this, your brother Xie won't even let me eat."
Upon hearing this, Xie Gui's temples throbbed with embarrassment. Looking at his friend Xi Zi clutching her heart, his face clearly showed his disdain.
Si Yan's eyes were sparkling, with a hint of languor, but her gaze towards Gu Yao was full of interest.
After all, there aren't many people Xie Gui can protect...
Gu Yao smiled, tilted her head and looked at Si Yan, "Brother Si, if you're going to freeload a meal, you should act like one."
Si Yan: "..."
Did you learn that mouth from Xie Gui?
Her lips are truly coated with honey.
Gu Yao smiled innocently, his eyes drooping slightly, making him look exceptionally naive.
Si Yan sat up straight, her expression slightly serious. "How did you and Xie Gui meet? Where did he kidnap this child from?"
Gu Yao took a sip of tea, glanced at Si Yan who had a gossipy look on his face, and a hint of cunning appeared in his eyes.
"You really want to know?"
Si Yan nodded.
As soon as Xie Gui saw Gu Yao's smile, he knew that Gu Yao was about to say something shocking.
She glanced at Si Yan with pity, then silently turned her head away.
Gu Yao looked at the person in front of him who had a thirst for knowledge, smiled gently, waved to him, and looked mysterious.
Si Yan turned to the side, put her ear close to Gu Yao's ear, and even solemnly opened her fan to block it.
Gu Yao leaned close to his ear and whispered like a devil, "I am... I just came from my parents' funeral hall."
The child's voice was somewhat childish, yet strangely eerie.
A cool breeze brushed against my ear, sending shivers down my spine.
Si Yan suddenly stood up, staring wide-eyed at the child in front of her.
Gu Yao smiled sweetly and pointed outside the door, "There are mourning clothes in Brother Xie's car..."
