Chapter 1353: Don’t You… Need to Talk?
"Wh-why?" Xia Yinian was completely unprepared for this.
Perhaps, even if she imagined thousands of threats, she wouldn’t have thought it would be Beicheng’s biological mom.
Wasn’t her mom missing for over twenty years? She always thought... How did she suddenly appear in Bing City?
"I don’t know either, but this time she seems to have no intention of hurting you." Gu Beicheng responded seriously.
"The last time she came to Bing City, it was the first time I had seen her again in over twenty years."
Gu Beicheng gently stroked Xia Yinian’s back, as if comforting a frightened little bunny.
"Don’t think too much, I’ll handle it."
But wasn’t he the one in need of comfort? Meeting again after twenty years in such circumstances.
"Does... your mom remember you?" Xia Yinian asked in a low voice.
"Perhaps." Gu Beicheng held her tightly, closing his eyes, "I won’t let her hurt you in the future."
"And her? Don’t you need to talk?" Xia Yinian asked again.
"Talk? She’s had over twenty years to find me, but she didn’t, right?" Gu Beicheng’s voice was equally quiet.
Xia Yinian seemed to feel the heartbreak from the other party, but she couldn’t do anything.
Beicheng was so loving towards Grandma, who wasn’t his biological mom, let alone his real mother?
Xia Yinian knew that this man, who seemed cruel and unfeeling, actually had a heart more passionate than anyone else’s.
Sadly, he never expressed himself, nor did he like to explain, coupled with his way of doing things, leaving a heartless impression on everyone.
Knowing he was hurting inside, Xia Yinian dared not say more.
She intended to go sleep earlier, since this was someone else’s place, and she and Beicheng were not officially together. Being talked about wouldn’t be good.
Maybe not many knew her in Bing City, so they might talk, but surely many knew Beicheng.
For the sake of his reputation, she asked Jing Hanye for an extra room.
But given her man’s situation now, she couldn’t bear to leave.
"Beicheng, let go of me, I’ll wipe your face so you can sleep better, okay?" She looked up at his strong and enticing jawline.
"I don’t need it, your hands are cold, when your body warms up, I’ll help you wash." Gu Beicheng lowered his head and kissed her forehead.
Suddenly, the man released her, proping himself up, half-leaning on her body.
