Black-bellied Bamboo Horse: Xiaoqingmei, I can't eat enough!

Chapter 537 You Say, I Believe
"Well……"

When Gu Nian woke up in a daze, what he saw was the familiar ceiling.

Turning his head to the side, there are more familiar, Luo Jia's eyes.

"Are you awake?" Luo Jia's voice was still pleasant, and he gently rubbed Gu Nian's temples with his hands, "Do you have a headache?"

"No..." Gu Nian hadn't recovered yet, but she only said one word.

Luo Jia patted her on the head, said with a light smile, "The two girls drink so much, they won't allow it in the future."

Gu Nian pushed Luo Jia's hand away in silence, and sat up from the bed with his head supported.

Luo Jia looked at her suspiciously. When he went to pick Gu Nian home yesterday, she was already asleep. Chris just handed her over to him without saying a word.

He had no idea what happened last night.

Well, maybe it was a hangover and not feeling well.

Luo Jia thought, while getting up and putting on her pajamas, she said to Gu Nian, "Wash up slowly, and I'll make porridge for you."

Gu Nian didn't answer, and waited until he left the bedroom before getting up and getting dressed, and then she walked into Luo Jia's study.

The printer silently swallowed the paper, and with trembling hands, Gu Nian put the papers away neatly one by one, then held them, and walked out of the study with a somewhat vain footstep.

Mixiang is very tempting.

Gu Nian stood by the kitchen door, looking at the busy Luo Jia, as if looking at a stranger.

Is what I saw really Luo Jia?

It should be the one he wants to see...

"What's the matter?" Luo Jia turned his head and saw Gu Nian looking at him coldly. He frowned slightly, turned down the fire, and walked in front of Gu Nian.

"What is this?" Gu Nian raised his hand holding the paper.

She is so nervous.

I was so nervous that my hands were shaking.

Seeing what Gu Nian was holding, Luo Jia's face fell instantly.

His voice was cold, colder than the coldest snow mountain: "Where did you get it?"

"Don't worry about where I got it, just tell me, what is it?" Gu Nian looked at him with trembling lips.

"Don't worry about it." Luo Jia reached out and took away the things in Gu Nian's hands, tore them into pieces in two or three strokes, and threw them into the trash can, "Get out."

Gu Nian grabbed Luo Jia's sleeve, and her tears fell uncontrollably: "Luo Jia! Luo Jia, are you crazy?! Do you know that's against the law! You don't want to live!"

She was growling, a broken growl.

Luo Jia frowned, raised his hand and rubbed his forehead: "Stop making trouble."

"Trouble?" Gu Nian laughed, she cried and laughed, "I'm troubled? If a passer-by on the street, let alone smuggling jade seeds, even human trafficking has nothing to do with me! Luo Jia ,you……"

"Stop messing around!" Luo Jia glared at Gu Nian angrily and growled, "You don't need to worry about these things."

"You, you..." Gu Nian bit her lower lip tightly, she looked at Luo Jia, her voice became much softer, "You, you are not afraid..."

"Afraid?" Luo Jia sneered, "What have I been afraid of?"

What he feared most has happened.

What else is he afraid of?

He is not afraid of those people, let alone any danger.

What he was afraid of was that Gu Nianhui would know the so-called "truth" when he couldn't say anything.

What he was afraid of was never that she misunderstood him.

What he was afraid of was that if she knew too much, danger and trouble would entangle her.

"You..." Gu Nian's tears were streaming down, "Isn't it okay to make money safely? Why do you do this kind of thing? Tax avoidance... is it that important?"

Looking at her tears, Lorgar wanted to hold her in his arms and tell her, no, it's not what you think.

but……

"I'm a businessman." Lorgar looked at her indifferently, and said the same indifferent words.

"You are a soldier!" Gu Nian yelled out of control, "Luo Jia! Your surname is Luo! You are a soldier! Others can ignore the law but you can't!"

"..."

Lorgar was silent.

For the first time, he realized that facing Gu Nian, he really couldn't do anything.

"Brother Jia..." Seeing that he was silent, Gu Nian took a step forward and wrapped his arms around his waist.

She put her face on his chest, listening to his heartbeat, she whispered: "Tell me, tell me that this thing is fake, as long as you tell me, I will believe it, okay?"

Luo Jia's body froze, he opened his mouth, but couldn't speak.

"Please..." Gu Nian raised her head, tears filled her cheeks, she looked at him with pleading eyes, "Please, even if you lie to me... okay..."

There was despair in her voice.

She is like a small fishing boat floating on the sea, with a storm ahead and huge waves behind her, she is drifting with nowhere to go.

For the first time, she felt that Luo Jia's embrace was so cold, so cold...that she couldn't feel any warmth.

"sorry."

Lorgar finally spoke.

Just words spoken... not what she wanted to hear, nor what he wanted to say.

Gu Nian looked at the majestic building in front of him, and clenched the bag in his hand.

She didn't know how long she had been standing here.

She should have gone up, but she couldn't take a step.

"Boa? Why are you here?"

It wasn't until Sun Haonuo's voice sounded behind Gu Nian that Gu Nian came back to his senses.

"Big, big brother." Gu Nian took a step back guiltily, lowering his head and not daring to look into Sun Haonuo's eyes.

"What's wrong with you?" Sun Haonuo frowned, looking at Gu Nian with puzzled eyes.

"I, I... I'm fine, I, I'm here to look for Chief Zhou." Gu Nian stammered, his eyes were erratic and he didn't dare to fall on Sun Haonuo.

Sun Haonuo looked at her, frowned and said, "Then go up, what are you doing here as a statue?"

"Uh... yes, yes... my legs are numb!" Gu Nian was talking nonsense, completely unaware that he was standing...why were his legs numb?
Looking at Gu Nian who was obviously worried, Sun Haonuo shook his head helplessly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I still have something to do, what should you do, don't stand in the way here."

"Okay, okay!" Gu Nian nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and then quickly ran into the gate of the office building, wishing to disappear from Sun Haonuo's sight in the next second.

Standing in front of Zhou Wenhua's office, Gu Nian sighed three times before finally making up his mind and knocking on the door.

hope he's not there...

"Come in." Zhou Wenhua's voice came out, shattering Gu Nian's fantasy.

Gu Nian bit her lower lip, opened the door and walked in.

"It's you, come and sit." Zhou Wenhua didn't show any surprise when he saw her, but he didn't know where he heard that Gu Nian had come to look for him.

"Nian girl, how is your task going?" Zhou Wenhua looked at Gu Nian sitting in front of him with a kind smile.

Gu Nian's hands trembled slightly, and he took out a kraft paper bag from his bag and put it on the table: "This is... Xu's financial statements for the past ten years, I have marked the mistakes and omissions, and there are two more I got the list from Xu Shihuan... About Xu Muqing, that's all I can find out."

Gu Nian's fingers tightened a little stiffly.

At this moment, she felt that it was difficult to breathe.
