Chapter 174 : Mu Lanshu's Matchmaking

Gu Nian opened her eyes and grabbed the seat belt with both hands. She thought...Chu Zhaoyang would kiss her.

She felt a little disappointed.

***

Chu Zhaoyang was racing almost all the way, and Gu Nian thought he was taking her back to her home.

Except for the days when Chu Zhaoyang was on a business trip, he went to her house for dinner every day.

Mu Lanshu's attitude was as contradictory as ever. She didn't agree with them being together, but she was very attentive and polite to Chu Zhaoyang.

Who would have thought that this time, Chu Zhaoyang would actually take Gu Nian back to Lanyuan.

The car drove into the garage and the garage door automatically lowered slowly.

The moment the garage door touched the ground, Chu Zhaoyang unbuckled his seat belt with a click, leaned forward to unbuckle Gu Nian, and then fished her over.

At the same time, the seat slided back to free up a large amount of space.

Gu Nian was sitting on her side, Chu Zhaoyang wrapped his arms around her waist from behind, brushing the tip of his nose against her earlobe, and his hot breath caused shivers on her skin.

Gu Nian nervously hugged Chu Zhaoyang's arm, his breathing and body trembling together.

"I've been holding it in." Chu Zhaoyang said hoarsely, then led Gu Nian's hand to the trousers chain.

Gu Nian suddenly thought of him suddenly putting her back in the passenger seat, quickly fastening her seat belt, and driving back like crazy.

Such an abnormal behavior, it turned out...

"Why did you suddenly..." She didn't do anything to him!

Chu Zhaoyang's eyes were dark, and his mellow voice was indescribably hoarse: "You just shook your butt at me."

Gu Nian's face turned red, listened...listened to what he said!

It's too... too shameless!

Speaking as if she was deliberately trying to seduce him!

"When did I... shake... you?" Gu Nian said with a blushing face.

It was so embarrassing that her head was about to explode.

"You shook it just now." Chu Zhaoyang said in a deep voice, which made him want to unbuckle his pants and execute her on the spot.

Gu Nian felt that she was particularly wronged, and it was hard to explain why.

Just now she was just trying to avoid him from hitting her, but when it came into his mouth, it became... it became a tease.

It became the love between the two of them.

With one push, Chu Zhaoyang pressed her against the car door, grabbed her hand and covered it, and at the same time, kissed her lips.

Gu Nian's mind went blank and she couldn't think of anything.

Her lips were blocked and he couldn't even scream. Only humming sounds escaped from the corners of her mouth and nose.

There was a scalding temperature in the palm of his hand, and she couldn't hide from it, it was pressed firmly by him.

He kissed her from the corner of her lips to her lips, then along her chin to her neck, collarbone, and even to her earlobes. It felt like his mint scent was all over her body.

The kiss that fell was originally warm, but when it came into contact with the air, it became cold again, causing her to tremble.

While pecking back and forth, he whispered: "Gu Nian... Nian Nian... Nian Nian..."

Like a sigh, like a whisper.

From his low and hoarse voice, Gu Nian felt that her own name could be pronounced so beautifully.

It's like her name was the most special and unique.

Gu Nian's cheeks were very red, she really liked hearing him pronounced her name, her eyes were blurred, and she was unconsciously intoxicated by his soft call.

Just listen to him reciting it again and again, and finally, it burst out in her palm.

Chu Zhaoyang held her hand and pressed it against her palm, letting the heat on it also spread to his palm, intertwining his fingers with hers.

"Nian Nian." Chu Zhaoyang called softly.

Gu Nian's cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were looking at him with a somewhat scattered light.

"Don't keep me waiting too long." Chu Zhaoyang squeezed her hand, "I can't bear it anymore."

***

Because of this episode, the two of them did not go back to Mu Lanshu's place for dinner. It was too late to go back. Besides, they were both in a state of embarrassment now.

So they went home directly.

But after thinking of Chu Zhaoyang's words, Gu Nian didn't dare to stay long and left after dinner.

Chu Zhaoyang sent Gu Nian home. The car was parked downstairs of Gu Nian's house. Gu Nian did not get out of the car immediately.

After unbuckling her seat belt, he thought for a while and said: "Today the bureau said that a few people from each of our three teams will be selected to form a special operations team specifically for the R organization. It will be led by Mo Jingsheng and Yan Lui leads the team. I want to sign up."

Chu Zhaoyang immediately objected: "No, it's too dangerous."

Gu Nian had expected it a long time ago, so she had already prepared it.

She said: "Organization R has been targeting you. Since I am your girlfriend, I must have been among their targets. Regardless of whether I join or not, I am already directly opposing Organization R. In this case, It's better for me to join the group directly and fight against Organization R with you."

Seeing Chu Zhaoyang's disapproval with a sullen face, Gu Nian held Chu Zhaoyang's hand: "Chu Zhaoyang, I'm not safe either."

"I'm sorry." Chu Zhaoyang said in a deep voice.

It's all because of him, otherwise Gu Nian wouldn't need to get involved in these terrible things.

Gu Nian shook her head and squeezed Chu Zhaoyang's palm: "You know, I never blame you for this. You are also a victim. As your girlfriend, I feel particularly proud to bear the risk with you. No matter how dangerous things are, I can shoulder them with you and fight side by side with you. This makes me feel that we are one."

"So, my idea is, since you can't hide, then go head-on. I want to know as much about the R organization as possible and can help you as much as possible. If I were a little girl who didn't understand anything, then that's it. But since I'm a policeman and I have this condition, I want to do as much as possible for you."

"Chu Zhaoyang, we are one." Gu Nian held his hand and said, "If you are in danger, I will be in danger. If you are good, I will be fine."

Chu Zhaoyang held her hand instead: "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have to be like this."

"But for you, I am willing. Even if there is danger, as long as it is you, I think everything is worth it." Gu Nian thought for a while and said, "You don't have to worry about Yan Lui. Even if I don't join that action team, he is still in the police force and we meet every day, so there is no difference. I really don't have any feelings for him anymore."

"If you want to join, I can't stop you, but remember, I'm worried about you. "Chu Zhaoyang said.

 "Um."

***

So the next day, Gu Nian submitted a request to join Mo Jingsheng.

In fact, this action team did not have a dedicated office. They usually handle cases with their respective teams. However, if there was any news from Organization R, they will put Organization R first and hand over the case at hand to other colleagues first.

Saturday, Gu Nian had a day off, and Chu Zhaoyang had to work overtime in the morning and have a meeting at the company.

Gu Nian took the opportunity to sleep in at home.

As a result, she was in a daze when she heard a sound outside the bedroom door, as if someone was coming.

She heard Mu Lanshu's door open, and she greeted him very enthusiastically: "Come in, why bring anything, it's so expensive. You still treat me as an outside?"

Gu Nian turned over, covered her ears with the quilt, and planned to continue sleeping, when she heard a familiar male voice: "Nian Nian is not at home?"

"She's sleeping. She hasn't gotten up yet. Sit down first and I'll wake her up right away." Mu Lanshu said.

"It's okay, she is tired from work, just let her sleep." The male voice said.

Gu Nian froze, suddenly lifted the quilt and sat up.

It was Yan Lui!

Later, Gu Nian mentioned to Mu Lanshu that Yan Lui was still alive.

Why did Yan Lui come to the house today?

She haven't mention he would come, but listening to their conversation, Mu Lanshu already knew about it.

Gu Nian quickly got up, changed her clothes, tied her hair casually, and went out.

They saw Yan Lui sitting in the living room, smiling and chatting with Mu Lanshu.

Yan Lui saw Gu Nian first, smiled at her and said, "Nian Nian, you're up, I must have woken you up."

Gu Nian was in a trance for a moment, Yan Lui's natural attitude without any grudges, as if he had never left, as if it was the time when she was still in the police academy and Yan Lui had just joined the police force.

He had never experienced a gloomy undercover career, and his smile was still sunny and clean.

But looking into his eyes, Gu Nian sobered up.

The current idiom was no longer the original idiom.

Gu Nian nodded towards Yan Lui, then ducked into the bathroom and washed up quickly.

When she was brushing my teeth, she heard Mu Lanshu saying to Yan Lui in the living room: "Yan Lui, since you're here, let's have dinner together here. Have a good chat with Gu Nian. You don't know, Gu Nian told me and I was shocked that you were not dead, but when I recovered, I was very happy for you. I still remember how good the relationship between you two was at the beginning, but you just didn't break the window paper and let me be by your side be anxious."

Gu Nian was startled and quickly spit out the toothpaste in her mouth and rinsed her mouth quickly.

Just listen to Mu Lanshu say again: "It'll be good if you come back now. We all thought you were dead. Nian Nian, that silly girl, felt very uncomfortable. When she saw someone who looked a little bit like you on the road, she thought it was you and never thought about it. I am willing to accept that you are dead. So that... ugh! For so long, she had been unwilling to invest in new feelings. "

"Mom!" Gu Nian quickly threw down the toothbrush and rushed out, interrupting Mu Lanshu's words.

If this continued, who knew what Mu Lanshu will say.

Mu Lanshu raised her head and said with a smile: "Just in time, I'd like you to chat with Yan Lui, I'll prepare lunch."

After saying that, she got up and went to the kitchen.

As for Yan Lui, he smiled meaningfully and looked at Gu Nian.

Gu Nian turned around and chased her to the kitchen. She closed the kitchen door and asked in a low voice, "Mom, what's going on with you? Why did Yan Lui come here?"

"Yan Lui is a caring kid. He called me and told me about his situation, so I called him over directly." Mu Lanshu took out two potatoes from the refrigerator, rinsed them under the water a few times, and then took a knife peel.

Gu Nian sighed deeply and asked, "What did you mean by those words you just said?"

"What else can it mean? I hope you two are well." Mu Lanshu put the peeled potatoes on the cutting board and prepared to shred them.

Gu Nian stopped her movement, snatched the kitchen knife away, and slapped it on the cutting board: "Mom, please stop being busy. Can you answer my question seriously?"

Mu Lanshu pursed her lips and breathed a few times, washed her hands, wiped the water on her apron casually, and said, "Okay, then I will make it clear to you. You used to like Yan Lui, but then Yan Lui died. If you still refuse to find a boyfriend, you just have him in your heart."

"Now that he is back, you can continue to be with him. Mom doesn't mind that he is a policeman and his job is no longer safe. I encourage you two to be together." Mu Lanshu tilted her face slightly to the side. "You don't have to... find someone else to take his place."

Gu Nian's breath was stuck in her chest and he couldn't get up or get down.

A nauseating feeling surged from her heart to her throat. Gu Nian covered her chest and patted it hard. She felt that there was something blocked in her chest, which made her want to vomit, but she couldn't. It was painful, uncomfortable, and suffocating.

"Mom, before I got together with Chu Zhaoyang, I told you that my singleness had nothing to do with Yan Lui. It was just because I didn't meet anyone who made me attracted. I didn't have him in my heart, not then, not now. No, there will never be one in the future! Chu Zhaoyang has never been a substitute!"

Gu Nian's eyes turned red with anger: "Chu Zhaoyang...he is such an outstanding and proud man, how could he be a substitute? Who is worthy of letting him be a substitute? What you said is an insult to him and to me. An insult, an insult to our feelings!"
