Mr. Gu, stop chasing me! Miss Jiang has become a movie queen!

Chapter 257 We Don’t Have to Care About These Things

On the way back, inside the black Porsche.

Jiang Ning sat in the passenger seat and asked, "We can be considered as friends for life, right?"

"Well," Gu Yuan chuckled, "Why not?"

The atmosphere became quite harmonious for a while, but it caused dissatisfaction among some people.

"Hey, can you two go home and talk about this? I'm still here. Now is not the time to flirt, okay?"

"Ouch, how could I forget about you? Really, it's all my fault. Sorry, hahaha."

Jiang Ning said with a smile, and then asked:

"But coming to the point, I also have a question for you. How did you become what you are today? I heard from Zhu Ying that you are only in your 20s, but you look like you are in your 40s."

When it came to this, the man's eyes were filled with a strong and complex emotion, as if Jiang Ning's question had brought back terrible memories from the past.

He had already changed into the new clothes that Jiang Ning had brought him, and these new clothes seemed to restrict his hands and feet, making him uncomfortable no matter how he wore them.

"This is a long story, and I can't finish it in just a few words. Anyway, I offended someone I shouldn't have offended, which is why I'm in this situation today. I also know that I look scary, right?"

Jiang Ning waved his hand and quickly said that this was not what he meant.

"No, no, that's not what I meant. Please don't think too much about it. I just want to know if your current state has anything to do with those people?"

The man's eyes were hesitant, and Gu Yuan was also observing his expression through the rearview mirror.

"Of course, otherwise why would I risk my life so much to become their ancestor? Isn't that asking for trouble?" He answered Jiang Ning angrily.

Jiang Ning reached out and tugged at Gu Yuan's sleeve. She was a little at a loss at the moment.

Gu Yuan understood and comforted Jiang Ning in a low voice, "It's okay."

Then, while waiting for the red light, she turned around and said to the man:

"Okay, then we won't ask any more questions. But since you've helped us so much, we're not the kind of people who won't be grateful."

The red light turned green, and Gu Yuan stepped on the accelerator lightly, not forgetting to finish the rest of his words.

"In return, I can give you a house by the river. You should stop living in such an unsafe and unclean place. How can you maintain good health in a place where even basic hygiene is not guaranteed?"

"Really?" the man replied with some surprise.

Through the rearview mirror, Gu Yuan saw the surprise on his face and fell into his trap.

"Yes, and I have already had it packed. You can move in today. I will send you the title deed later, and you don't have to tell me separately anymore."

Gu Yuan replied affirmatively.

The man's lying posture became somewhat unrestrained, as if this house was originally his property. "Thank you very much. By the way, where is Zhu Ying?"

"You just remembered to ask him now. If you hadn't told me, I would have thought you had forgotten about him." Jiang Ning joked with him, "Don't worry, he has already returned to his own home. He may contact you later. Don't you have his contact information?"

"What? When did we have contact information?" the man asked in disbelief.

Jiang Ning's expression changed, and she asked the man,

"What are you talking about? But Zhu Ying brought us to see you. If you didn't know each other, why would he bring us to find you?"

Unexpectedly, the man sighed and said thoughtfully:

"Hey, you're right. We're not really close. If it weren't for you this time, he might never come to see me in his life. It's good this way, so we don't have to quarrel again when we meet."

The man looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. Jiang Ning wanted to continue asking, but was stopped by Gu Yuan.

"Forget it, don't ask him anymore. How long will it take for him to stop asking? Since the matter has been resolved, let's just put it behind us." He whispered.

Jiang Ning remained silent. He distracted himself by playing with his phone and forced himself not to think about the matter anymore.

The vehicle drove smoothly all the way to the residence that Gu Yuan had agreed to give him.

The man got out of the car, thanked Gu Yuan and Jiang Ning, then turned and walked into the brand new building.

Looking at the man's back, Jiang Ning was filled with doubts and curiosity. She couldn't help but ask Gu Yuan: "Don't you think this man still has many secrets that he hasn't told us?"

"I know. I saw it the moment he said the first word."

Gu Yuan nodded.

"But everyone has his own past, and maybe he has his own unspeakable difficulties. We have done what we can to help him, and let him deal with the rest. As for the outcome, that is not within our control."

Jiang Ning nodded thoughtfully.

"You are right. You have been very hard-working during this period. Not only do you have to take care of my affairs, but you also have to deal with so many messy and unreasonable things with me. Otherwise, you don't have to do these."

Gu Yuan and Jiang Ning stood in front of the villa where they once spent a short period of happy time.

And this short-lived happiness is even enough to allow them to rely on it to overcome difficulties in the days to come.

He looked at her lips, his Adam's apple moved, and said:

"There's no need to worry about these things between us."
