Jin Mingzhu half opened her eyes and looked. It was Gu Huaijin who came back. At that moment, she felt like crying.

She had never thought of relying on Gu Huaijin, but at such a desperate moment, he was her only support.

When the two bodyguards saw Gu Huaijin coming back, they couldn't help but tremble.

Gu Huaijin quickly went upstairs, took over Jin Mingzhu's weak body, raised his foot and kicked the bodyguard. The other party rolled down the stairs and was quickly controlled by the shadow.

The murderous intent in the corners of his eyes gradually became more and more prominent, and his voice was extremely cold:

"Take him to the Shadow Pavilion."

Mrs. Gu was standing aside. When she heard her son's order, she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, because this was her man.

"Huaijin!"

Her son only glanced at her, extremely indifferent, and ordered:

"They have stretched their hands too far and touched the wrong people. Cut off their hands."

This was not a punishment at all, it was clearly meant for her, her biological mother, to hear. Mrs. Gu felt a sense of fear in her heart.

When he saw his son coming back, he was about to persuade him to kick the little bitch out, but when he saw the indifference in his son's eyes, he stopped talking.

"Xianxian, are you okay?" He held Jin Mingzhu in his arms and asked worriedly.

She forced herself to shake her head, her head still feeling dizzy, her small hands tightly grasping the shirt on his chest, as if she had found support.

"I am fine."

Seeing her complexion getting worse and worse, Gu Huaijin wanted to kill her. He looked at the culprit with a vicious look:

"Why did mother come here to bully my wife?"

"Huai Jin, mother wants to help you kick her out. She refuses to leave here..." Mrs. Gu's voice became smaller and smaller because she had no confidence.

"Oh? She is my wife. It is natural for her to live here. What right does mother have to kick her out?" Gu Huaijin's eyes were filled with irritation and he spoke bluntly.

"Or is it that there aren't enough things going on in the old house, so mother has to intervene here?"

Mrs. Gu didn't expect her son to ridicule her with the matter of the old house. She was stunned for a moment, then reacted:

"Gu Huaijin, I am your mother, and you are talking to me like this just for her?"

"If you weren't my mother, you would have ended up like those two bodyguards." There was a warning in his voice.

Mrs. Gu was forced to take a few steps back by the anger in her son's eyes. Her own son actually threatened her. She felt aggrieved:

"Huaijin!"

Ignoring Mrs. Gu's emotions, Gu Huaijin waved his hand and said in a deep voice:

"I think mother shouldn't come to Yujingyuan unless she has something to do. After all, the stepmother and the illegitimate child in the old house still need mother to take care of them."

"Yujingyuan has a mistress, so mother doesn't need to stretch her hand so far."

After saying this, he carried Jin Mingzhu back to the bedroom and closed the door tightly to block out the sound of Mrs. Gu crying outside.

A shadow had already stepped forward and invited the distraught old lady back to the old house, and Yujingyuan returned to peace.

Gu Huaijin put her on the bed, wrapped her in a quilt, and asked worriedly:

"Xiao Xiao, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"

As her body warmed up, she felt better and shook her head gently.

"I'm sorry. It's my fault. I let you get bullied."

"Gu Huaijin, it was my rude words last time that angered Madam Gu, and she hates me." Her breath was weak.

"It's just that I didn't expect that she would attack me without caring about anything."

"It's my fault that I didn't protect you well, Kanan. I'm sorry." His expression was full of regret.

Thinking of what happened just now, Jin Mingzhu felt a wave of fear. If Gu Huaijin had not come back in time, Mrs. Gu would have thrown her out without hesitation.

It was storming outside, and she couldn't imagine what a miserable situation it would be.

But she didn't expect that Gu Huaijin would actually rebel against his mother for her. Thinking back to Mrs. Gu's dazed look, she felt mixed emotions.

Jin Mingzhu has always known that Gu Huaijin has some feelings for her. She used to attribute all of Gu Huaijin's good behavior towards her to "lust for love"; but after more than a year of getting along, her understanding of Gu Huaijin has become clearer and clearer. His love is so overwhelming, and it is a love that she dare not respond to.

"Gu Huaijin, thank you." Her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.

Gu Huaijin carefully held her in his arms and said softly:

"Xianxian, I'm just afraid that I haven't done enough for you and have hurt your feelings. Don't say thank you to me."

As if confessing, Gu Huaijin whispered in her ear:

"Xianxian, I always regret that if I had recognized you before Xu Yang, would there be another possibility for us? If I had rescued you from the cold lake, we would have been connected."

"Seeing you and Xu Yang loving each other, I just want to kill someone and get you back."

Jin Mingzhu's body couldn't help but tremble, and her eyes gradually became red when she thought of what happened before.

Gu Huaijin held her tightly in his arms, his chin resting on her forehead, his voice filled with pain:

"Countless times, late at night, I persuaded myself to forget you and let you be happy. In the hot pot restaurant, when I saw Xu Yang being intimate with you, I realized that I couldn't give up on you. I really couldn't. Wan Wan, you have been my obsession for more than ten years."

"I know that in order to marry you, I did a lot of bad things, including framing Xu Yang and threatening you with the Jin family. I was afraid that you would escape from me without hesitation if you had the chance."

"Xianxian, if you leave me, I'm afraid I'll go crazy... I use these to threaten you, but I don't dare to really do anything to the Jin family and Xu Yang. I'm afraid you'll hate me."

Jin Mingzhu looked up and saw Gu Huaijin's jawline was tense, his eyelashes were drawn down, and shadows obscured the emotions in his eyes.

"Kan Kan, I don't expect you to forgive me, I just want you to not leave me again. Can we start over?" His voice was pleading.

She froze for a moment, cold tears streaming from her eyes, and she didn't know how to answer.

After a long silence, Jin Mingzhu's dry and hoarse voice came:

"Gu Huaijin, I hate you so much. I hate that you ruined my life and all my happiness. You made me live in fear for the past year."

"I hate all your schemes and tricks. You scheme against everyone around you. You are too accurate and too cruel."

"But, whenever I was in danger, you would be the first to appear by my side. Gu Huaijin, I don't know how to face you."

Her voice was choked with sobs, which was heartbreaking.

Gu Huaijin hurriedly took her into his arms and kept comforting her:

"Xianxian, I know, I know you hate me. Everything that happened in the past was because of me. I made you worry and fear..."

"Can you give me a chance to make it up to you in the future? Can we live happily together like a normal couple?"

She never spoke again. He just hugged her tighter. Even his burning heartbeat was clear. He whispered:

"Nian Nian, I'll take you to a place tomorrow..."
