He suddenly called himself so seriously, but suddenly there was no more text, as if he was struggling and hesitating, not knowing where to start.

Ji Shuyu stretched out his arms and hugged him tightly.

"It's okay, I don't know how to say it..." Let's not say it.

She wanted to say: I will always be with you.

But before she finished speaking, Gu Xiuyuan had already pushed her out of his arms.

"I'll take a shower and then go see the baby."

Gu Xiuyuan got up, probably due to drinking, his body was shaking a little, Ji Shuyu wanted to help him.

"It's okay." He refused with a light smile, "It's late, go to sleep first!"

He was obviously smiling, but it made Ji Shuyu feel strange...

That night Ji Shuyu didn't sleep well, and when she woke up several times, she found that Gu Xiuyuan hadn't slept. When it was almost dawn, Ji Shuyu went to hug him again, but the seat beside her was already empty.

Ji Shuyu got up to look for him, and finally saw him in the study.

There was a gap in the door of the study.

Gu Xiuyuan smoked hard, burned out one cigarette, and then lit the second...

……

For several days in a row, Gu Xiuyuan left early and returned late, either reeking of alcohol, or shutting himself in the study as soon as he came back.

Knowing the pain in his heart, Ji Shuyu carefully accompanied him everywhere, not wanting to make him uncomfortable too deliberately, and trying not to touch his sensitive nerves as much as possible.But his mood didn't seem to improve.

He still suffers from insomnia all night, and Ji Shuyu hugs him as before when he suffered from insomnia.

Not knowing what time it was, Ji Shuyu woke up in a daze. She habitually stretched out her arms to hug the person next to her, but it was in vain.

She woke up with a start.

It was already two o'clock in the morning, but the person who was sleeping next to her was gone!

Ji Shuyu got up in a hurry, looked at the bathroom first, and then went to the study.

As soon as the door was opened, the pungent smell of tobacco and alcohol came to the face.

In the study room, the lingering smoke has not dissipated, the ashtray is almost full, and there are still a few wine bottles lying on the ground, which shows that he has been here for a long time.

Gu Xiuyuan sat slumped on the ground leaning on the sofa, and poured wine into his mouth with the bottle, but most of it spilled on his body.

There was a large amount of wine stains on the front of the skirt, and he looked very embarrassed.

"Xiuyuan!!" Ji Shuyu stepped forward with distress, "Why are you sitting on the ground!"

She wanted to help him up, but a drunk man was really heavy. She tried several times but failed, and was even pushed.

The drunk man didn't seem to like being touched, he frowned and murmured faintly.

"Xiuyuan, do you want some water?"

Ji Shuyu leaned closer to listen.

"I'm sorry..." He murmured in pain, "Mom, I'm sorry..."

Boom!
Ji Shuyu's heart sank when he heard it.

"I didn't know it was going to happen, I... didn't want to."

As Gu Xiuyuan muttered, he had already reached for another bottle.

"Xiuyuan, stop drinking." Ji Shuyu stopped.

"Leave me alone!!" He was tired and in pain.

"Xiuyuan." Looking at his painful appearance, Ji Shuyu's voice trembled a little, "Don't do this, okay?"

Hearing the trembling voice in his ear, Gu Xiuyuan paused, then looked at her with eyes blindfolded.

"I killed her." He frowned in pain. "If it wasn't for me, my mother wouldn't have died..."

"I thought I didn't care that much..." He raised his eyes, "But, I really hurt."

As he said, he spread his palms and looked at his own hands.

"As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw her blood on my hands. It was all her blood, my mother's blood..."

"Xiuyuan." Ji Shuyu felt distressed, "It's not your fault, it's not..."

She hugged him painfully,
"It's my fault." A broken, trembling voice came out of his throat, "If I hadn't called the police, if I followed her a little, things wouldn't have turned out like this."

"no……"

"Yes!" He interrupted loudly, "I killed her!!"

Ji Shuyu trembled when he yelled at her, and even saw a trace of resentment, a trace of... resentment in his eyes!

"That's my mother..." He choked up, and then waved Ji Shuyu away, "No matter how wrong you do, she is also my mother."

"Let me stay by myself for a while, let me stay by myself for a while." He shook his head resistingly, "I don't want to see you now..."

"..."

Ji Shuyu's ears were buzzing, but he heard the words behind him verbatim.

"Why, can't you give her a chance?"

He seemed puzzled, but also dissatisfied.

"Xiuyuan?" Ji Shuyu's eyes suddenly turned red, "You... blame me?"

Ji Shuyu's body slowly became stiff.

He called the police because of her, so he blamed her? !
From the moment Xia Mei died, she had been worried. She was afraid that he would blame himself, that he would torture herself, and even... blame her, that he would feel that everything was caused by her.

"Blame you?" He laughed, "I only blame myself."

"If, I don't recover my memory..." He laughed, then shook his head. "If I had never met before, things would not be like this!"

"If you haven't met, nothing will happen."

boom--

It seemed that thunder was blowing in his ears, Ji Shuyu staggered and fell to the ground.

She couldn't believe what she heard.

He said... never met? !

Her throat seemed to be constricted, and her eyebrows were trembling in pain, but she couldn't make a sound for a long time.

He regretted meeting her?

Gu Xiuyuan murmured: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Then he turned over and fell into a deep sleep.

Ji Shuyu sat there, and the words echoed in his ears for a long time: I have never met...

Looking at the man who was so drunk and unconscious, her heart ached and she didn't have the strength to get up for a long time.

During this period of time, he has been depressed and depressed. Although he always said that he was fine, she knew that he was in pain, but she never thought about it... He would really blame her from the bottom of his heart.

The tears in the eyes rolled out uncontrollably.

Listening to his inarticulate murmur, listening to the painful "Mom" in his mouth, my heart seemed to be torn apart.

She told herself over and over in her heart that this was not his truth, he was just drunk, but at the same time another voice told her: This is, speaking the truth after drinking...

Gu Xiuyuan turned over and knocked down the wine bottle, the sound startled the aunt who got up to see the baby.

"Young lady, what happened?"

"It's okay." Ji Shuyu managed to stabilize his emotions, and helped Gu Xiuyuan back to the bedroom with his aunt.

His pajamas were wet with wine, Ji Shuyu changed his clothes, and then brought warm water to gently wipe his face and chest.

Her movements were light and gentle, but she still saw him frowning.

It seemed that she had dreamed of something unpleasant, even painful, and wanted to wave her hand away in dissatisfaction, whispering: Don't touch me.

Tears rolled out uncontrollably, she sucked her nose, then opened her mouth to adjust her breathing.

He just drank too much, but he was a little stressed, he didn't mean it...

I told myself this over and over again in my heart, but the suffocating pain weighed heavily on my heart, making it hard to breathe.

Fearing that she would cry out, she covered her mouth and hurried into the bathroom.

Click, the bathroom door closed slightly.

Gu Xiuyuan, who was so drunk that he was unconscious, slowly opened his eyes.

At this moment, his eyes were clear, not a little drunk.

He turned over and looked in the direction of the bathroom. Hearing the low, suppressed sobs coming from inside, he clenched his hands tightly, and gradually his body began to tremble slightly.

He got up almost uncontrollably, wanted to rush in and hug her, and said to her: Xiaoyu, don't cry, when you cry, I'm in so much pain that I can't even breathe.

However, he had to restrain himself...

The suppressed sobbing sound was like a sharp knife, stabbing his heart madly.

He opened his mouth to take a breath, clutching his chest desperately, his eyes were wet.

Ma'am, I'm sorry...

……

The next day, when Ji Shuyu woke up, the seat around her was empty.

Because she fell asleep crying, her entire chest was stuffy.

"Young Madam, why do you look so bad?" Auntie looked distressed, "If you haven't rested well, go to sleep for a while!"

"What about sir?"

"Just went out..."

Ji Shuyu chased him out without even having time to change his clothes.

"Xiuyuan!"

In the parking lot, Ji Shuyu saw his shadow, but couldn't catch up with him, so he could only shout.

Gu Xiuyuan stopped in his tracks and turned his head.

She was a little far away, so she couldn't see his expression clearly.

"Can you come back early today?" She asked loudly.

"There is an entertainment, but I will try my best."

His voice was still gentle, as if the complaint last night was just a nightmare.

"I'm waiting for you."

Gu Xiuyuan waved to her, and then got into the car.

Ji Shuyu stood still, her eyes slightly sore.

"Young lady, what happened?" The aunt chased out with her coat. "It's so cold here, why don't you put on some clothes."

Ji Shuyu shook his head, "It's okay, let's go!"

Turning around and walking a few steps, she looked back again, but the car had already gone far away, as if it had never stopped.

In the evening, Ji Shuyu personally cooked and prepared dinner.

When the appointed time was about the same, she went down to wait for him, wanting to come back with him.

As soon as she got off the parking lot, she saw Gu Xiuyuan's car.

He sat in the car and checked the time, then lit another cigarette.

After the smoke burned out, he stared at his watch for a while before getting out of the car.

He is waiting for time.

Ji Shuyu turned around and walked away in a hurry. When she entered the elevator, she smiled: Why did she hide?
She acted like she didn't see anything, and waited for him at the elevator entrance.

The elevator door opened, and she stepped forward: "I'm back."

"Yeah." He nodded, "Why did you run out again?"

He laughed, but with difficulty.

The more he tried his best to behave as before, the more deliberate, the more stinging Ji Shuyu looked.

So, this also shows that from the bottom of his heart, he really... really minds.

She prepared the dinner very carefully, and Gu Xiuyuan ate deliciously, but he couldn't hide his determination.

She thought before that he might have something to hide from her, so she wanted to make use of it to push her away.

But now, he cooperated as much as he could and maintained a superficial calm, which suddenly made her lose that confidence.

It seems that he really only cares about his mother's affairs from the bottom of his heart...

"Are you still working tonight?" Ji Shuyu tried hard to maintain her smile.

"There is a video conference, it will be a little late, you should go to bed first."

Gu Xiuyuan rubbed her hair, then got up and went to the study.

The meeting really went on for a long time, and Ji Shuyu waited for him until the window was lit up, only then did footsteps come from outside the bedroom.

Ji Shuyu retracted the quilt and pretended to be asleep.

Hearing him enter the door gently and lie down carefully, he seemed to hesitate for a while before stretching out his arms to hug her.

Just like those nights in the past when he fell asleep with her in his arms.

Ji Shuyu's eyelashes trembled, and her heart throbbed uncontrollably.

……

When Ji Shuyu received the call from Ke Chengzhou, Ji Shuyu had just finished communicating with the old customer about the order.

He said to look at the peace amulet again.

Chenchen's body recovered so quickly, thanks to him, she would not shirk this trivial matter.

It was only then that Ji Shuyu knew that Li Ya'an was Ke Chengzhou's cousin.

"This, I will return it to you in two days." Ke Chengzhou carefully put away the things, as if he really cherished them.

"It's okay, it was An'an's originally, if it's important, you just keep it."

Ke Chengzhou looked at Ji Shuyu, "Bo Yao said, you take good care of An An, thank you."

This thank you made Ji Shuyu a little embarrassed, "An An and I are friends, we should."

She used to only know that An An grew up with her grandmother, she didn't mention her parents, she thought it was an early death.

It's good now, with a family, I won't be bullied again in the future, it's great.

Coming out of the restaurant, it was already late.She got into the car, looked up and saw Gu Xiuyuan's car.

Didn't you say you have to work overtime?
Unfastening her seat belt, she got out of the car.

"Xiuyuan, are you outside?"

There was no reply to the message she sent, so she lifted her leg and walked in.

After explaining his purpose, the other party quickly led Ji Shuyu to the box.

Many business people talk about business here. The environment is not complicated, but some basic "processes" on the business table are also indispensable here.

Looking in from the door and window, the few inside are all familiar faces from the financial newspapers.

There is a young and beautiful girl sitting next to everyone, either pouring wine or chatting with the guests.

Similarly, Gu Xiuyuan also has them by his side.

The girl sat not far away, poured the wine obediently, and did not violate the rules, but she saw a relaxation on Gu Xiuyuan's face that she hadn't seen for a long time.

The expression on his face was that of a person who had been suffocated for a long time and could finally breathe freely.

Gu Xiuyuan came back drunk.

This time I was more drunk than ever before.

Ji Shuyu helped him change his clothes and wipe his face, but he didn't even snort, as if deliberately drunk to death, so that he didn't have to face people and things he didn't want to face.

She sat down by the bed and quietly looked at the suddenly "strange" lover.

"Didn't it mean that the baby is all right?" Her voice trembled, "Why is this happening..."

She felt wronged, he had just lost his mother, she tried hard to understand his pain, but...

"Xiuyuan, do you really think it's my fault?"

"Do you really feel that everything started because of me?"

"Even, do you think... I killed your mother?"

She had a lot of questions, but when he was sober, she didn't have the courage to ask, and when he was drunk, no one could answer her.

Ji Shuyu lay down exhaustedly, holding his hand and looking sideways at him.

At this moment, she has that feeling again: the person is right in front of her eyes, but she can feel it, but she can't guess it.

She was suddenly frightened...
