Thank god Gu Susu came to remind her, otherwise…
When she thought of the fact that she almost ended her marital relationship with Mo Shiting, Gu Li couldn’t keep calm anymore, her heart pounding like crazy.
She forced herself to calm down and pondered a critical issue.
She couldn’t remember this issue, but what about Brother Ting? Did he also remember it?
He hadn’t been contacting her for so long. Could it be that he didn’t actually want to retract the divorce and was leaving her to fend for herself in A Nation?
The more Gu Li thought about it, the more confused she became, and her mood plummeted in an instant.
Seeing her still sitting on the sofa and bowing her head, not knowing what she was thinking about, Gu Susu couldn’t help but hurry up: “Hey, are you going or not? If you are, hurry up and leave with me, otherwise when Brother Si comes back, you won’t be able to leave.”
“Why can’t I leave?”
Gu Li looked up at her, somewhat puzzled, “Can he actually restrict my personal freedom?”
“He is indeed restricting your personal freedom!”
Gu Susu snapped at her without a good temper.
Gu Li frowned and said nothing.
Frustrated, Gu Susu said, “Nevermind then, you don’t believe me, just try and see if those bodyguards at the door will let you leave Murong Manor.”
Seeing that she didn’t seem to be lying, Gu Li’s eyes filled with a touch of peculiarity and her tone suddenly became serious: “Do you know something?”
Gu Susu bit her lip and began to act up: “Didn’t you say you don’t believe me? Why should I tell you.”
“Gu, Su, Su!”
Gu Li clearly shouted these three characters, “You better tell me!”
“Hmph, I won’t.”
Gu Susu said, directly sitting down in the single chair next to her, crossing her legs and provoking her, “Beg me, if I feel like it, I might tell you everything I know.”
Gu Li: “…”
After taking a deep breath, she said, “Speak or not, up to you.”
“Hmph!”
Unexpectedly at this crucial moment, Gu Li still refused to give in. Gu Susu stood up irritably and paced around the room.
Gu Li got a headache from her pacing and was about to yell at her when she heard the ring of a cell phone.
It was Gu Susu’s.
Gu Susu immediately answered, “Hello… Alright, alright, I’m leaving right away.”
Hang up the phone, she hastily said to Gu Li, “There’s no time, Brother Si’s car is already at the manor entrance. Gu Li, if you trust me, start packing. When it gets dark, I will come to get you out. Of course, if you think I’m lying to you, you can try talking to Brother Si to see if he will let you leave.”
After saying that, she ran off before Gu Li could respond.
“Wait a minute…”
Gu Li immediately chased after her, but once she left the room, she could no longer see Gu Susu.
Strange!
She disappeared so quickly, could it be that there really is a secret passage?
Gu Li furrowed her brows, considering Gu Susu’s words.
She didn’t really trust Gu Susu. After all, the two had been rivals since childhood. Although she helped her escape from the Gu family last time, she couldn’t guarantee that she wouldn’t play her this time.
Moreover, was Murong Si really confining her?
Why would he do that?
With a thousand questions in her heart, Gu Li subconsciously covered her chest and walked back to her room in light steps.
Not long after, Murong Si came over.
He knocked on the door from the outside, “It’s me.”
“Come in.”
Gu Li concealed her unusual emotions and spoke softly.
Murong Si pushed the door and came in, saw Gu Li sitting on the sofa with a book in hand, and couldn’t help but laugh: “Little Pear, your injury has not fully healed, you should rest and not read.”
Gu Li lifted her gaze from the book and casually said: “If I don’t read, I’d feel too bored. Brother Si, I think I’ve recovered more or less. How about I go home today?”
Murong Si’s face changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure and tentatively asked her: “Is the staff here not serving you well? Or does the food not suit your taste? You can tell me, and I can adjust everything.”
Gu Li shook her head: “I just miss home.”
“Uncle Gu is still abroad, even if you go home, you won’t see him!”
Gu Li bit her lower lip and didn’t make a sound, gradually she believed somewhat of Gu Susu’s words.
Even more so, a thought was becoming clearer in her mind. He couldn’t be intentionally delaying her return to Hua Country to recant the divorce, could he?
At this thought, Gu Li squeezed her hands, her tone turned a bit colder: “That’s my home. Because my father isn’t there, you’re saying I can’t return?”
“Little Pear, you misunderstand me, what I meant was, if you go back, Gu Susu is going to bother you. Wouldn’t that be annoying? How about this, you can stay for a few more days, and once your injury is fully healed, I’ll let you leave. How’s that?”
