Xue Lingyu didn't know much about that Charles, but he still knew that the other party was an out-and-out countryman from A, and Gu Mingzhe was the last adopted child of the old man of the Gu family.

The tradition of the Gu family is to adopt Chinese orphans and choose heirs among the Chinese, but this Charles was able to make an exception for Mr. Gu and became the only one from country A among them, which shows that there must be something special about him.

Facts have proved that Mr. Gu didn't miss him back then, just because the heirs of the year were all docile by Gu Mingzhe, even though the head of the Gu family is still Gu Mingzhe, Charles can still cause a lot of trouble for the other party .

Speaking of which, Charles helped Xue Lingyu a lot this time unintentionally. At least Xue Lingyu could slip away easily this time, and Gu Mingzhe didn't look for him for such a long time. It can be seen that the other party can still bring Gu Mingzhe A lot of trouble.

However, Xue Lingyu was not interested in the grievances between Charles and Gu Mingzhe, and said that Gu Mingzhe had no intention of cultivating himself as an heir at all, and even if he did, he was not interested in these things.

His feelings for Gu Mingzhe were complicated. When he was young, Gu Mingzhe was undoubtedly his only support. Although he also had fear and fear at that time, it was more of an attachment.

After all, he was still young when he lost his parents and younger brother. When he needed family affection the most, Gu Mingzhe brought him fantasies about family affection. This is what made him extremely grateful. The relationship between her and her was becoming more and more rigid, but from the beginning to the end, he never did anything to betray the other party.

Because at least in Xue Lingyu's childhood, Gu Mingzhe played the image of the patriarch very well.

But the good memories of childhood are short-lived after all. As he grows older, his longing for freedom and yearning for the outside world gradually broke their false and fragile "father-son relationship". Still under Gu Mingzhe's control, true freedom cannot be realized.

Although he also has friends, those friends are all arranged by Gu Mingzhe, or at the behest of Gu Mingzhe. They are not so much friends as playmates carefully selected by Gu Mingzhe, who are not threatening to him. It is more like a pet, but pets will be unhappy if they lack companions for a long time, so it is also necessary for a qualified breeder to keep small things happy for a long time.

Gu Mingzhe's attitude towards himself made Xue Lingyu very self-aware that he did not overestimate his position in the other party's mind.

However, the sad thing is that Gu Mingzhe has never treated himself badly in material terms, which makes him even have no reason to resist him and openly confront him.

Once he expresses dissatisfaction, or openly opposes Gu Mingzhe, although Gu Mingzhe himself doesn't care, even the most familiar servants around him will look at him with "are you crazy?" Come on, for a person of Gu Mingzhe's status, as long as he takes pity on him a little, he should be grateful to him, why would he go against the other party so rebelliously.

This made Xue Lingyu even more angry, as if her resistance was not only incomprehensible in the eyes of others, but also a joke.

The overall style of the Gu family is cold and cool. This is the decoration style left over from the first head of the house. Even when Gu Mingzhe became the head of the house, it has not changed at all. The Gu family is like a cold and orderly precision machine. The owner of the main seat has changed one after another, but no one has shaken this huge machine. The people sitting on the main seat are more like the core of this cold machine. They have maintained the evil operation of this huge machine generation after generation. .

As for who the person on the main seat is, it is not so important.

But without exception, the people sitting in that seat are all capable of foresight, possessing foresight that ordinary people do not have, among which Gu Mingzhe is the best among them.

Xue Lingyu walked to the bathroom, took a deep breath, and the servant came over slowly, trying to help him put water of the right temperature.

"You go out." The other party took care of him since he was a child, and it was Gu Mingzhe who arranged to take care of him when he was 13 years old. From the age of 13, Xue Lingyu's food and daily life were all taken care of by the other party.

This has been the case for so many years, but Xue Lingyu felt a burst of irritability at this moment.

He didn't want the other party to take care of him anymore.

It's not so much care, it's more like a kind of monitoring that makes him invisible, making him feel oppressed even when he breathes.

"Zhao Ru, you can go out now." Xue Lingyu emphasized her tone, which can be said to be very serious.

But Zhao Ru completely ignored it, as if he didn't hear it, he still lowered his head and tried the water temperature.

Xue Lingyu became even more irritable. The other party's ignorance of her reminded her of her situation even more. The other party only obeyed Gu Mingzhe's orders, and her own wishes could be completely ignored.

Xue Lingyu took a deep breath, and suddenly swept the glass on the sink to the ground.

"I'll let you out!"

Broken glass splashed, and one of them scratched Zhao Ru's face. It was a very light wound, but blood still flowed down. Although it was only a small wound, it finally attracted the attention of the other party. Zhao Ru stood up, He wiped the wound on his face expressionlessly, then bowed slightly to Xue Lingyu, and backed out.

Xue Lingyu calmed down her emotions briefly for a minute, then calmly let go of the hot water that the other party put for her, and then turned on the hot water, just sitting in the empty bathtub in her shirt.

The hot steam rose up, quickly making the bathroom hazy, as if it was covered with a soft cotton fig leaf.

At this moment, he really felt that he was alone and helpless.

The water line of the hot water rose slowly, slowly covered his ankles, then his waistline, and finally slipped out beyond the boundary of the bathtub. Xue Lingyu just sat there with her knees hugged in a daze.

until he heard a knock on the door.

"Lingyu, I heard from Zhao Ru that you kicked him out?" It was Gu Mingzhe's voice.

"Lingyu, are you in there?"

Xue Lingyu didn't reply.

There were two more knocks on the door.

"Lingyu, I'm coming in."

It wasn't that he didn't answer, but that Xue Lingyu knew that the other party didn't need his answer at all.

Sure enough, basically as soon as the words were spoken, the other party pushed the door openly and walked in, glanced around for a while, and finally set his sights on the person in the bathtub.
