Chapter 569 Just Like My Little Sister
Yu Yuluan took his leave and left.
Gu Yuanqiong's eyes did not move, and he kept staring at Ning Yunxi.
She turned over, causing the wound to move, and frowned in pain. He was shocked and subconsciously reached out his hand to soothe the wound.
But, the pain is in my heart and there are many inconveniences.
Thinking about the differences between men and women, he stopped in time and patted her shoulder gently through the quilt to comfort her.
Feeling the love and care from her "big brother", Ning Yunxi woke up happily, opened her eyes, only to find that it was not her brother.
"Who are you?"
"Where's my big brother?"
Gu Yuanqiong smiled elegantly and was very polite.
"Please tell me first, who are you?"
"The big brother you mentioned is your eldest brother?"
Ning Yunxi glanced at his palm and felt deeply offended, so she sat up, endured the pain from the wound, and shrank back.
"My brother taught me that when you go out, you must be on guard against others and not reveal your identity casually."
"Therefore, I apologize for not being able to comment."
Gu Yuanqiong understood, stopped his soothing actions, and withdrew his hand.
"My mother's teachings are exactly the same as your brother's. Please forgive me for not being able to comment on this."
It’s better not to say anything. Ning Yunxi is not curious about who he is.
"Ok."
"Excuse me, sir, where is my elder brother?"
Gu Yuanqiong wanted to recruit talented people and had already thought of a plan.
“If you don’t know who he is, you don’t know where he is.”
He guides without leaving a trace.
"When I rescued you, you were the only one seriously injured and unconscious on the ground."
Ning Yunxi was unaware and asked casually.
"Didn't you see anyone else when you rescued me?"
Gu Yuanqiong's eyes revealed his true feelings, without a trace of falsehood.
"There are indeed two."
"One is a young man, handsome, about ten years old; the other is a masked man in black, who looks strong and should be in his forties."
When Ning Yunxi heard the word "young man", a look of concern flashed across her almond-shaped eyes.
"Where are they now?"
Seeing this, Gu Yuanqiong confirmed what he had guessed, so he implemented his plan with ease.
"The young man said that he would use himself as bait to trick the men in black into taking your life. That way, he could pretend to be the thief and praise you for risking your life to save him, and he would be able to get away with it easily."
"After saying this and paying the commission, they all left, leaving you alone, seriously injured and dying."
"Young man, go to the nearby government office to report to the authorities; the men in black will naturally flee far away."
Ning Yunxi's pupils almost shattered, as if her heart was broken, she was terrified and grief-stricken.
"what?"
"He...he really doesn't want me anymore..."
Gu Yuanqiong smiled with satisfaction to himself, pretending to empathize with the man and trying to comfort him with kind words.
"Crying hurts his body, he's not worth it."
"He is just a cunning and evil person, why do you care about him?"
"Without him, you still have family and friends. There are so many human emotions. Why bother with him?"
After hearing this, Ning Yunxi became even more sad.
"I have no family and no friends."
"Everyone doesn't want me."
The truth he found out was exactly what he wanted, so Gu Yuanqiong suppressed his lips and said nothing.
"Have you ever heard of the common saying? Meeting by chance is fate."
"I'm alone outside, and I don't have any relatives or friends around me. Why don't we keep each other company?"
Ning Yunxi's face was wet with rain, and she looked very pitiful.
"But I don't know you."
Gu Yuanqiong had a gentle and warm face and patiently comforted her.
"As time goes by, we will slowly become familiar with each other."
"Friends are all like this, they eventually become friends and appreciate each other, right?"
Feeling a touch of warmth, like the gentle spring breeze, Ning Yunxi slowly stopped crying.
"Yes."
"But I don't know how to call you."
Gu Yuanqiong suggested with a smile.
"You can just call me Big Brother and I'll call you Third Sister, okay?"
Ning Yunxi was stunned.
"Why not the second sister?"
Gu Yuanqiong gave an explanation.
"You don't know, my sister is the third child, and she is about the same age as you."
"To me, you're just like my little sister, no different."
Talking with him, Ning Yunxi felt comfortable and relaxed, and gradually forgot the pain.
"What a coincidence?"
Gu Yuanqiong was full of enthusiasm and held her hands through his sleeves.
"That's why I say we are destined to be together."
"Call me big brother, I want to hear you."
Ning Yunxi hesitated a little.
"it is good……"
She pondered for a moment and called out softly.
"Big brother."
Gu Yuanqiong freed one hand and touched her head.
"Well, the third sister is really well behaved."
"Big brother should give you a meeting gift."
As he said this, he took out the purse from his waist and gave it all away without any stinginess.
"Here, keep it."
Ning Yunxi waved her hand hurriedly and pushed the purse back.
"No, I don't dare."
Gu Yuanqiong used excuses to persuade her and coax her into accepting it.
"This is etiquette and rules. You must accept it."
"At most, you can exchange all the money for gifts and give them back to me on my birthday."
Ning Yunxi accepted it anxiously and tied it around her waist.
"May I ask, brother, when is your birthday?"
Gu Yuanqiong continued to make excuses.
"No hurry, I'll tell you later."
To prevent her from asking further questions, he quickly changed the subject and at the same time showed his considerateness.
"The most urgent thing is to send you to see a doctor. My maid's medical skills are limited and she may not be able to treat you properly. It would be better to ask the female doctor in the clinic to examine you carefully."
"I don't want to lose my beloved sister just after I got her."
Ning Yunxi burst into laughter.
"Thank you for your kindness, big brother."
"I can heal this injury myself."
Gu Yuanqiong was pleasantly surprised.
"How do you know medical skills at such a young age?"
Ning Yunxi simply explained the reason.
"My sister has been weak and sick since she was young, so I learned medicine for her. Therefore, I know a little bit about medicine."
Gu Yuanqiong seized the opportunity to express his sincerity and good intentions.
"You treat your family so well, but unfortunately, they don't know how to cherish friendship."
"Don't worry, I will take extra care of you and make up for the family affection you lack."
Ning Yunxi felt that it was a blessing from heaven and was overjoyed.
"Thank you, brother. I am willing to trust you."
Gu Yuanqiong and her looked into each other's eyes, filled with deep affection.
"You are my beloved sister, I trust you."
"I'll go get the medicine box. Please wait a moment."
Ning Yunxi responded respectfully.
"Yes, thank you, brother."
During the treatment, Gu Yuanqiong lay with his back to her and closed his eyes, still accompanying her, occasionally handing her medicine as he asked.
"Why not use a maid?"
Ning Yunxi replied.
"It's still early, they're probably sleeping, I don't want to disturb them."
Gu Yuanqiong commented sincerely.
"You are so kind."
Ning Yunxi felt ashamed.
"Big brother, you are so kind."
After treating the wound, she began to bandage it.
"My little sister has something to ask, I'm not sure if I should ask you before the trial."
Gu Yuanqiong smiled comfortably.
"You ask."
"If it is inconvenient to answer, please forgive me, Third Sister."
Ning Yunxi didn't mind and was reasonable.
"After all, we just met. I can understand. Please go ahead, big brother."
She paused for a moment and then asked a question.
"Brother, why are you wearing a mask?"
Gu Yuanqiong had expected this question and handled it with ease.
"I am ugly and ashamed to see people."
"Let's get to know each other later, and then I'll see you in my true colors, okay?"
Ning Yunxi believed it without a doubt and responded obediently.
"Okay, brother, I should respect your concerns."
