Gu Wan had an advantage that couldn't be considered a strength, and that was that she was especially slow in receiving pain. Other people might be able to react in an instant, but Gu Wan had to pause for a long time before she could react. Her hand had just been burned.
/p
When Chen En grabbed Gu Wan's hand to check, Gu Wan felt the pain and instantly pulled her hand back to take a shower of cold water.
/p
Before Chen En could react, Gu Wan had already entered the washroom.
/p
Chen En said, "I don't believe that she did it on purpose. Think about the Mrs. Gong you just called, and think about how to deal with this woman. I'll go see Gu Wan."
/p
After Chen En finished speaking, he left without even looking at Mo Xuerong.
/p
Mo Xuerong was also "scared stiff" for a long time. After she reacted, she grabbed Gong Mohan and asked, "Is Gu Wan alright? She should be fine, right? What should I do if something happens? Girls value their skin the most. What if they get disfigured? "
/p
Gong Mohan glanced at Mo Xuerong indifferently.
/p
Mo Xuerong was shocked by Gong Mohan's gaze. She didn't know what expression to make, and just stared blankly at Gong Mohan.
/p
Chen En pulled Gu Wan back from the washroom, and realized that Mo Xuerong had already left.
/p
Chen En took the medicine box, and after helping Gu Wan treat her wounds, he frowned and looked at Gu Wan, "A lot of people are jealous of you, you have to be careful."
/p
Gu Wan nodded and sat at the table. The chef was very professional. After this incident, he started to make the same style again.
/p
Gu Wan said to the chef, "Let's not stew the soup."
/p
After saying that, Gu Wan sat on the sofa, touched her stomach, and sighed, "I'm so hungry."
/p
Chen En nodded. "Me too. Who asked someone to invite Mo Xuerong for no reason? It made us unhappy. Chen En was no longer afraid of Gong Mohan's black face.
/p
Chen En knew that Gong Mohan wouldn't do anything to him. After all, they were friends who grew up together. It was okay for him to joke around.
/p
Gu Wan glanced at Gong Mohan. "Let's go back and eat."
/p
Gu Wan felt that Gong Mohan wanted to use her to make Mo Xuerong jealous. Now that Mo Xuerong had run away in anger, he had achieved his goal. There was no need for her to continue acting with him.
/p
Chen En was stunned. He looked at Gu Wan and turned to look at Gong Mohan, not knowing what to do.
/p
Gu Wan dragged Chen En away. Gong Mohan didn't stop her. Chen En walked upstairs and looked back at Gong Mohan. Gong Mohan didn't look up. He stood there, thinking about something.
/p
Just standing there, Chen En felt that Gong Mohan was very lonely.
/p
Gu Wan went back to the room and sat on the chair, sighing in relief.
/p
Chen En looked at Gu Wan. "What are you doing? Why didn't you eat downstairs? Why did you have to come up? "
/p
"It's nothing. I just don't want to see him." Gu Wan looked at Chen En. "If you have something to say to him, go ahead. I can eat by myself. "
/p
Chen En smiled helplessly. "What do you take me for?"
/p
Gu Wan looked down and asked softly, "Do you have someone you like?"
/p
Chen En leaned against the table, picked up an apple and tossed it around. "I do. Didn't I tell you that I used to have a crush on your husband?"
/p
"He doesn't count. Have you ever had a crush on someone, but there were always some things that forced you to separate? Even so, you still liked him. You wanted to get close to him, but reality didn't allow you to. What should you do? "
/p
Gu Wan really didn't know what to do. That was why she asked Chen En this question. Although she knew that Chen En wouldn't give her an answer, she still wanted to ask.
/p
"Hmm, then what's the matter that's stopping you?" Chen En caught the falling apple. He asked casually.
/p
"Something more important than my life." Gu Wan knew that she shouldn't ask this. After all, all the sacrifices were for Gu Xiaotian. Gu Xiaotian's life was the starting point of everything she did. Leaving Gong Mohan was equivalent to leaving the life-saving medicine.
/p
If Mo Xuerong hadn't appeared, Gu Wan might have suppressed these thoughts. But now that Mo Xuerong had appeared, Gu Wan began to worry. She worried that Gong Mohan would let her leave because of Mo Xuerong.
/p
"Is it your brother's illness that restrains you?" Chen En sat down in front of Gu Wan. "Do you have someone else you like?"
/p
Gu Wan knew that Chen En was Gong Mohan's good friend. She thought that Chen En would feel that it was selfish of her to eat from the bowl while looking at the pot, but she still nodded.
/p
"Ah, I see." Chen En just nodded lightly.
/p
Gu Wan didn't expect that Chen En would just say "I see."
/p
"Aren't you going to say anything to me? For example, what you're doing is too much. "Gu Wan was dumbfounded.
/p
Chen En smiled at Gu Wan and said, "Why should I say this to you? You said that your marriage was just a deal. Since it's a deal, you have the right to like someone else. Not to mention you, even Gong Mohan can't let go of Mo Xuehan. Why should I say that I'm too much? It's not good to have double standards. "
/p
Gu Wan didn't expect Chen En to be biased and stand in the middle.
/p
"Thank you." Gu Wan smiled faintly. "You didn't blame me for doing this."
/p
Chen En continued to toss the apple. "You don't have to be too touched."
/p
Gu Wan couldn't help but smile. When she looked up at Chen En, there was a lot of light in her eyes.
/p
Chen En had always thought that Gu Wan's eyes were very beautiful. Even if she didn't have makeup on, her eyes were really beautiful. Maybe it was because the eyes were the window to the soul, and Gu Wan's soul was pure, so her eyes were so beautiful.
/p
Gu Wan saw that Chen En kept looking at her, so she asked, "What's wrong?"
/p
"It's nothing. I just think that your eyes are very beautiful." Chen En heard the knock on the door and continued to toss the apple. "Come in."
/p
The housekeeper brought in the food. The maids put down the food and went out. Gu Wan looked at the housekeeper who was still standing and asked, "Is there anything else?"
/p
"It's like this. Mr. Gong didn't eat and went to the kitchen to do his own things. Do you want to go and persuade him?" the housekeeper said worriedly. "Mr. Gong has stomach problems. If he doesn't eat, I don't know if his stomach will hurt."
/p
Gu Wan put down her chopsticks. Chen En looked at Gu Wan and said, "Don't go. If he's hungry, he will eat by himself. If he needs someone to persuade him to eat, he will be spoiled. He won't starve to death."
/p
Gu Wan didn't expect that Chen En would say this. The housekeeper didn't expect it either. She looked at Chen En in a daze.
/p
Chen En looked up at the housekeeper and said, "I've been telling you not to spoil him too much. You know that he respects you, so he will definitely listen to you. Therefore, he will definitely listen to what you say. If you persuade him to eat properly, he will definitely eat. Trust me, housekeeper. "
/p
Chen En said and continued to focus on eating.
/p
Gu Wan looked up at the housekeeper and nodded. "If that's the case, I'll have to trouble you, housekeeper."
/p
Gu Wan watched the housekeeper leave and asked with a frown, "Won't this be too troublesome, housekeeper?"
/p
"No, when you weren't around, Gong Mohan often worked overtime and even went to the hospital a few times because of stomach problems. Do you think that he can't live without you? No, he will live well. "Chen En said indifferently," Or are you worried about him? "
/p
Chen En leaned close to Gu Wan and asked.
/p
Under Chen En's gaze, Gu Wan said, "Stop joking. Why would I be worried about him?"
/p
"That's for the best." Chen En retracted his gaze from Gu Wan and said after a long while, "Actually, Gong Mohan lacks love. He actually has a good impression of you. If he didn't, he wouldn't have helped you so much. Gu Wan, actually, Gong Mohan likes the kind of love you have for your brother, the kind of selfless love you have for him. The higher he climbs, the less love he has. This is what they mean by 'it's lonely at the top'. This must be the reason why Mo Xuerong was able to enter his life. Whether Mo Xuerong was scheming or not, Mo Xuerong gave him what he wanted. That's why he liked him for so many years. "
/p
/p
"If that's the case, then the person he likes the most shouldn't be Mo Xuerong." Gu Wan picked up a piece of bacon.
/p
"Why do you say that?" Chen En asked.
/p
Gu Wan swallowed the bacon, but she choked because she was in a hurry.
/p
Chen En handed a glass of water to Gu Wan.
/p
Gu Wan took it. After drinking it, she looked at Chen En. "The person he likes the most should be you. He has been with you for so many years. Since you know him so well and used to like him, why didn't you two get together?"
/p
Chen En picked up a glass of hot water to warm his hands. "There are many reasons why we didn't get together. Most importantly, I don't want to. You know, we've been friends for so many years. I really don't want our friendship to be ruined because of a single sentence from me. I don't know how long we can be together, and I don't think I like him that much. " Chen En recalled that time. "Maybe I just admire him, but I don't like him that much."
/p
Gu Wan nodded.
/p
Chen En packed up after eating. "You have your things to do, and I have my books to read. I'm still studying for my PhD. I'm going back. My mom asked me to send her greetings to you today, mainly because I miss you. Oh yeah, I'll give you an answer soon. After all, it's about your brother, so I have to be careful. "
/p
/p
Gu Wan thought that Chen En's silence was the answer, but she didn't expect that Chen En's silence wasn't the answer.
/p
Gu Wan sent Chen En out. In front of Gu Wan's room, Chen En turned around. "Gu Wan, some things aren't what they seem on the surface. No matter what, I hope you can use your heart to look at the things behind the surface. I believe that once you do, you will have a different opinion."
/p
Gu Wan looked at Chen En in confusion.
/p
Chen En patted Gu Wan's shoulder. "I'm leaving."
