Chapter 42
"Didn't you like the appearance?" Gu Ling squinted and questioned.

"Well, of course the appearance is also very good," Gu Xia pursed her mouth, and the tears in her eyes fell instantly: "But he is good to me, he is always by my side and protects me silently, without asking for anything in return, you didn't see it today , People bullied me, he stepped forward immediately, I know he has low self-esteem, he is afraid that he is not good enough for me, so he avoids me, I went to that bar today because it was there for Xiaozi's birthday last time, I I wondered if I could meet him, but I didn’t expect it.”

Gu Ling was about to scold him, but Lin Zi gently pressed his hand, motioning him to stop talking.

Seeing the lively and lovely Gu Xi standing in the corner and silently wiping away tears, Lin Zi also felt a little distressed, after thinking about it, she said lightly, "If every day in the future lived like this tonight, would you like it too? "

Gu Xia was stunned, the chaos of the war tonight was obviously out of bounds for a rich young lady like her.

Lin Zi was not in a hurry to ask her to answer, and changed her posture very slightly to avoid touching the wound on her arm: "Su Bei is doing the job of a bodyguard, and the situation he faces will only be worse than today, not worse than today. Well, the tasks we set out are all calculated on an annual basis, and we signed a death contract, which means that life and death are conceited. To put it bluntly, maybe one day he will never come back when he goes out. Come."

Lin Zi looked at Gu Xia's staring round eyes, full of panic.

"I can, I can raise him." Gu Xia anxiously promised.

Hearing this, Lin Zi sat up, straightened her back, stared at Gu Xia for a long time with a gloomy expression, then suddenly gave up struggling and smiled softly: "How to raise him? Then look at his peacock appearance, just look at him. Since you haven’t even passed the junior accountant exam, you are going to support him?”

There was a smile in Lin Zi's words, which made Gu Xia's tense heart relax, and vowed: "I will work hard, and I will definitely be able to support him in the future."

"Well, let's wait and see," Lin Zi nodded, and said dotingly: "But until you can't afford him, and you can't protect yourself, don't go to him so rashly, look at how many people are doing it for you tonight." Things are bloody rushing."

Knowing that she was wrong, Gu Xia lowered her head and let out a groan, and took a peek at Gu Ling. Seeing that his complexion was still not very good, she immediately lowered her head even lower.

Seeing Gu Xia's small movements, Lin Zi laughed angrily, and said understandingly: "You are also sleepy, so I asked someone to send you back to rest first."

Hearing that Lin Zi helped her out, Gu Xia immediately raised her head, smiled at Lin Zi with two bright eyeballs, rushed to Lin Zi, hugged her, and then pressed her palm on her wound, feeling the pain. Lin Zi's lips turned white.

Finally sent the little ancestor away, Lin Zi took a deep breath, picked up the coat on the sofa and prepared to put it on and go back to the room.

"Why didn't you finish what you just said?" Gu Ling said heavily.

Lin Zi sighed, forgetting that there is another one that is not easy to fool, but she didn't intend to go deep into it, so she turned around slowly and asked, "What? I'm done talking, and Gu Xia has gone back."

"you have not."

Gu Ling used an affirmative sentence, and after speaking to himself, he folded his hands, as if listening attentively.

This is on the pole with oneself.

"What do you want to ask?" Lin Zi put down her coat and lay back to her original position.

Gu Ling was not annoyed, and insisted: "You don't have to pretend not to care about what you didn't finish just now, I know you care about Gu Xia."

Lin Zi subconsciously smoothed the ends of her hair. After thinking for a while, she felt that there was nothing she couldn't say. After all, he was Gu Xia's brother. Although he was usually strict, she knew that he was good to her.

She sat upright and felt frank: "You guessed it right, I arranged for Su Bei to protect her by Gu Xia's side. I arranged for her the moment I left Gu's house two years ago. Gu Xia has a pure personality and there is no one around her." People guard me for fear that she will suffer, what happened tonight was purely accidental, and similar things will not happen again in the future, don't worry."

After finishing speaking, Gu Ling didn't speak, but just stared straight at Lin Zi, as if you don't want to leave unless you make it clear.

Lin Zi cursed secretly: He really is a cunning businessman, nothing can fool him.

"Okay, since you want to know, I'll tell you," Lin Zi was a little angry, turned around, and rudely lifted the vest at the shoulder blades. A huge scar on the back spread to the depth of the vest. It was a very ugly scar. The scar was crooked, and the front should be where the heart should be. Looking at the centipede-like scar, Gu Lingxin was so blocked that he couldn't make a sound for a long time.

Seeing that he seemed a little frightened, Lin Zi continued, "Are you frightened?" She smiled lightly, took the water glass on the table, and poured herself a glass of water slowly: "This is to protect a little Girl, she is only 9 years old, her stepfather tried to cheat on her, she couldn't sleep every night, when I saw her, it was a big winter, she was wearing worn-out sandals, her fingernails were full of dirt, and the dark grease on her collar made her The entire collar is polished, and there is not a complete spot on the face, it is all bruises."

Lin Zi paused, and continued: "She only has one dollar, and she said: Sister, can you help me? I only have one dollar, but it is all I have. If I can, I can pawn the rest of my life to you. Is it ok? When she said that, she lowered her head, she was so humble that she dared not look into my eyes, but she mustered up the courage to ask for help from a strange, cold-faced me, how much courage do you think she needs.”

Lin Zi raised her hand, looked at the expensive chandelier above her head through the glass, and smiled ironically: "She said that she had asked many people for help, even her own mother, but in the end she failed, and she found I, taking a dollar to pawn the rest of her own life, you said if she hadn't met me, do you think she would have encountered more cruel things."

"I originally wanted to tell Gu Xia that there are too many dark sides in the world, just like this scar on my back, which is ugly but really exists."

Gu Ling's voice was very low, and he said softly, "Why didn't you say it in the end?"

"Well, it may be that there are too few fools in this world who are as simple as her and are indomitable in love." Lin Zi smiled lightly: "I can't have it, I hope she can get it, I sincerely hope I have this ability, so that everyone around me can be a happy child.”

"What about you?" Gu Ling asked anxiously.

"Me." Lin Zi smiled casually, picked up the coat on the sofa and put it on, stood up neatly, and lazily said: "One can't be too greedy, in this life, forget it."

Lin Zi walked up the stairs very lightly, with a smile on his lips all the time, and lightly tapped the handrail of the stairs with the tip of his hand, obviously in a leisurely manner, but Gu Ling felt that a knife had been severely dropped on his chest, and he couldn't breathe.

After sitting there for a long time, Gu Ling took out his mobile phone: [Tomorrow morning, I want to see all the most effective methods for removing scars!all! 】

That night the living room was brightly lit, Gu Ling was holding a piece of A4 paper, and was extracting something in front of the computer. From time to time, he would make a phone call or two. There was always only one topic: how to completely remove the scar.

Of course, he is not lonely, because Special Assistant Jin, who is more than 10 kilometers away, is also holding a computer and wearing glasses with a temperature of more than 500 degrees. At this moment, he must grasp it.

So the next morning, when Lin Zi woke up late due to a work-related injury, as soon as he stepped out of the room, he was attracted by two heads that were put together downstairs. The experience gained from playing Douyin in the middle of the night.

Lin Zi rubbed her eyes and confirmed that Gu Ling was standing downstairs. He was discussing Douyin early in the morning?

According to her observation, Gu Ling's life is very boring. The mobile app is full of clear legal provisions, mind maps, business English, and financial news. A person who doesn't even watch TV is now talking Douyin downstairs?
She became interested, stepped down quickly, and asked cheerfully: "What vibrato, what experience."

As a result, as soon as the two of them saw her, they immediately put away the mobile phone, including the densely written A4 paper on the desktop, and then Special Assistant Jin put on a false smile and said flatteringly: "No, ma'am, you misheard, Good morning."

Gu Ling was calm, put the paper into the file bag, his eyes were tender, and he said dotingly: "Wash up, come out for breakfast, here is your favorite steamed bun."

Lin Zi felt goosebumps all over her body, and Special Assistant Jin also looked suspicious but didn't dare to say anything, and stood obediently where she was.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!
"Gu Ling, do you want to change bodyguards!"

Lin Zi's face darkened, and he felt that Gu Ling was being too unkind. He had repeatedly forced himself to tell the truth. Now because of these things, his trust in him had declined, so he called Jin Te early in the morning. Helped me, I even used Douyin.

"Let me explain first, it's okay to change the bodyguard, but if you break the contract first, we won't refund the bodyguard fee."

Lin Zi sat down on the sofa, looking at her feet, looking like a rascal.

Just kidding, with Lao Wang's temperament that loves money like his life, asking him to refund the bodyguard fee is tantamount to killing him. Last time Gu Ling said that he would sign all the bodyguards of the base, he was screwed by himself. If something happens again this time, Lin Zi promises that in the next few years, her ears will never be clean.

Hearing this, Gu Ling smiled helplessly, and gently put down the raised feet on the sofa, "Girls, you need to maintain a correct posture. Warm a glass of milk for you?"

Lin Zi leaned back resignedly, fell on the sofa, and complained in a low voice: profiteers are really not easy to fool.

She turned her head to one side, and turned to Special Assistant Jin who was standing aside, her eyes were obviously asking for help: "Your old brain is trapped by the door, it's not normal, why don't you drag it away first?"
