The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 400 What is this? Is it just burying your head in the sand?
Like a startled deer, Gu Yuexi jerked her body apart and pushed against Lin Chen's chest to create some distance between herself and Gu Chen. At the same time, she reached out and pressed down on Lin Chen's large hand.

Lin Chen didn't move.

He looked down into Gu Yuexi's eyes, his gaze probing.

Gu Yuexi dared not look into Lin Chen's eyes, because she was afraid that if she did, her already wavering will would completely collapse.

Lin Chen sighed inwardly, the heat in his eyes slowly cooling down. He withdrew his hand, rolled over, and went to the side.

Perhaps if he persisted a little longer, Gu Yuexi would agree, but since she had already shown resistance, Lin Chen was unwilling to do something against her will.

Gu Yuexi breathed a sigh of relief; this slight resistance had exhausted her willpower.

God knows how difficult it was for her to take this step, after all, she had dreamed about this countless times and had been looking forward to it for so long.

It wasn't that she didn't love Lin Chen enough or was unwilling to give herself to him, but rather that Lin Chen's wife was named Chu Jiaxue.

"Brother, I'm sorry..."

Lin Chen reached out and covered Gu Yuexi's mouth, gently comforting her, "Why do you need to apologize? I acted impulsively."

Gu Yuexi reached out and pried Lin Chen's hand away, insisting on explaining, "Brother, I really like you, but I want to wait for my sister to come back so I can have a proper talk with her. Although I've dreamt about this scene many times and have been looking forward to it for a long time, I still feel like I'm a thief right now..."

"it is good!"

Lin Chen softly agreed, "Then we'll wait for her to come back."

Gu Yuexi turned to the side and stared into Lin Chen's eyes: "You're not angry, are you?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Of course I'm not angry. You did a good job. I was just too impatient."

Gu Yuexi looked down, hesitated for a moment, closed her eyes, and groped her way out with her hand.

Lin Chen's eyes widened suddenly as he looked at Gu Yuexi in surprise.

What is this?
Is this just burying one's head in the sand?

……

How long is your course?

In the restaurant, Lin Chen picked up the noodles from the large bowl in front of him and stirred the chili peppers and noodles evenly. The bright red chili oil whetted Lin Chen's appetite.

Gu Yuexi's movements as she picked up the noodles were much more refined, or rather, beautiful women look good no matter what they do: "There are still half a month left in the course."

Lin Chen considered for a moment: "I estimate I'll be in seclusion for half a month, and then I plan to go to Xijing."

Gu Yuexi stopped picking at the noodles: "What are you going to Xijing for?"

Lin Chen explained, "Chu Tianyu is in Xijing, and my mother's family is also in Xijing. The people who hunted down my parents are also in Xijing, so I have to go and check." Gu Yuexi asked softly, "How long are you going to stay?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "I don't know either. It might take a while, or it might be very short."

Gu Yuexi hesitated for a moment, but finally mustered up her courage: "I'm not a cultivator, and I know I can't help you even if I go, but I still want to go with you... Don't worry, I won't interfere with anything you do. I just want to see you when you have free time."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Okay!"

Gu Yuexi was slightly taken aback, then looked at Lin Chen with delight: "You want me to go?"

Lin Chen nodded: "That's right, go if you want to. I'll have Han Wei accompany you and protect your safety."

Gu Yuexi was overjoyed: "I thought you would advise me that it was not safe to go to Xijing and that I should stay in Linhai or go back to Pingjiang."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "There is indeed some danger, but I think you shouldn't be afraid, right?"

Gu Yuexi nodded in delight: "I'm not afraid! Compared to waiting foolishly at home, I'd rather go through danger with you. Even if we really encounter danger, I think it's worth it. I don't like endless waiting."

"Ah."

The reason for taking Gu Yuexi to Xijing is that Lin Chen might stay there for a long time this time.

Aside from dealing with the few people he needed to deal with and continuing to track down his parents, he also needed to go to the Feng family.

It wasn't that he wanted to go to the Feng family to acknowledge his ancestors and gain their support; rather, he wanted to go to the Feng family to find out about his parents. As his mother's family, they should know more about his parents than outsiders.

As for whether the Feng family denied being his relative, Lin Chen didn't really care.

Blood ties can only prove the relationship between people from a biological perspective, but humans are emotional beings, and those who share affection are family.

Why are family members the most important?

That's because of family ties.

Why is a close neighbor better than a distant relative?

That's because there's only blood relation, no emotional investment, so naturally there's no kinship.

The marriage of my mother and father was never accepted by the Feng family. As the child of someone who was not accepted, and who did not grow up in the Feng family, I was like a wild child outside. Even though we were related by blood, it was only natural that others would not recognize me as family.

Lin Chen had a premonition that something very exciting was going to happen to him in Xijing.

What about your security work?

Lin Chen chuckled: "Resign, of course. For my persona as a runaway young master, I've had my fill of partying, so it's only natural that I should resign and go home. It's perfectly reasonable..."
