Chapter 227: Don’t Be Impulsive
The people surrounding them exchanged glances, none willing.
Several girls glanced at the boy lying unconscious. He looked like a mere child, how could they perform CPR on him? None of them were willing, and the boys were even less so.
Seeing this, Gu Siyu raised an eyebrow, “You still want me to do it? Good heavens, I have a boyfriend.”
Although this little boy was quite young, she somehow felt something was not right.
Gu Siyu didn’t know why, but she just felt she couldn’t perform CPR. Although it was to save a life, but, but~
“I, I’ll do it~”
A tall boy raised his hand. He thought that with Bei Ming Hao Chen’s bloodthirsty personality, if he knew Gu Siyu had performed CPR on another male, and they were all present at the time, none of them would have an easy time.
Gu Siyu breathed a sigh of relief. After pressing down a few more times, she watched the person on the ground cough up some water and slowly wake up. The artificial respiration was then canceled.
“Finally awake, you scared me to death.”
Gu Siyu breathed a sigh of relief. She knew how nervous she had been.
Only then did she realize her entire body was soaked. In the late autumn season, the chilling cold made Gu Siyu tremble uncontrollably.
The ambulance arrived quickly. Gu Siyu and the others explained the situation to the doctor. The person who fell into the water left with the ambulance, and the scene finally returned to peace.
“Gu Siyu, are you okay? You suddenly jumped in just now, you scared me to death.”
A girl patted her chest. They didn’t have that kind of courage.
“I didn’t expect you to be so capable. Your swimming is so good.”
After a round of mutual praise, Gu Siyu raised an eyebrow and said nothing. This was considered capable? If they knew more about her, wouldn’t they be so impressed they’d prostrate themselves and call her ancestor?
It was just swimming, what was so impressive about it? Moreover, she clearly felt her strength was insufficient when she was saving someone. She felt so helpless at the time. It seemed she was still too weak to even save a drowning person by herself.
Since Gu Siyu’s clothes were completely wet, she didn’t continue cycling. One of the boys thoughtfully took off his coat and draped it over Gu Siyu to prevent her from catching a cold. The group returned along the original path. Gu Siyu had wanted to have fun, but because of this incident, her enthusiasm waned. After a few words with everyone, she left first to buy a set of clothes at a nearby mall to change into, feeling much refreshed.
——
Street Park,
Without Gu Siyu, everyone was still having fun.
A group of men in black walked past in neat formation, all looking fierce.
They glanced at the group, not seeing the person they were looking for, and then asked, “Where is Gu Siyu?”
“Ah? Gu Siyu’s clothes got wet while saving someone, so she left early.”
“Brother, which gang are you from? We’re good people.”
“If something happens, please don’t blame us. We’ll leave immediately?”
Seeing the intimidating scene, a few people were frightened and prepared to get up and run quickly. But in the next second, they found the men in black leaving in neat formation again.
“Huh? Who was that person? Do they know Gu Siyu?”
“Why does it feel like Gu Siyu is so amazing? She knows everyone?”
“Damn it, why bother with so much? I almost lost my life. I think I saw guns in those people’s hands.”
“Heavens, in that case, won’t Gu Siyu be in danger?”
The group made sarcastic remarks.
Meanwhile, Bei Ming Hao Chen was busy. He finally found some free time and made a call, “How is it? Is Gu Siyu okay?”
“Replying to Young Master, they said Miss Gu has already returned because she fell into the water while saving someone.”
Hearing this, Bei Ming Hao Chen frowned tightly. He had told her not to go, and yet, only a few hours later, she had an accident.
“Is the person okay?”
Bei Ming Hao Chen asked anxiously.
“From what they said, she’s fine, but we’re not sure of the specifics. Our people are still looking.”
As soon as these words were spoken, a palpable chill emanated from the phone, freezing people to death.
“As soon as possible, give me the news immediately.”
Bei Ming Hao Chen hung up the phone and cursed fiercely.
He had originally intended to accompany Gu Siyu, not because he was interested in the activity, but to protect Gu Siyu’s safety.
Bei Ming Hao Chen’s identity was special; he moved in both legitimate and illegitimate circles, offending no small number of people. He had many overt and covert enemies. Bei Ming Hao Chen was already taking precautions, but he still couldn’t prevent some people from the shadows from exploiting loopholes.
Recently, his relationship with Gu Siyu had been rumored to be heating up, and almost everyone knew about it.
It was then that Bei Ming Hao Chen realized he might have made a mistake. By doing so, he was pushing Gu Siyu into the spotlight, letting his enemies know he had an additional weakness, and they might use Gu Siyu to threaten him.
Even just thinking about it made Bei Ming Hao Chen feel terrified.
Something unexpected came up today, preventing him from accompanying Gu Siyu. Even so, he had not stopped protecting Gu Siyu.
She was now familiar to everyone, and could be said to be in a very dangerous situation.
“Young Master, Ou Yang has intercepted one of our ships’ cargo.”
“It has already been transported by water.”
Just then, a man walked in and reported in a deep voice.
Ou Yang, Ou Yang, it’s always Ou Yang. This guy all day long. I really don’t know why he insists on opposing me.
“Find every possible way to intercept it and bring it back, otherwise, you’ll deal with the consequences yourselves.”
Bei Ming Hao Chen glanced at his phone, anxiously threw down a sentence, and then turned to leave.
On the phone was a photo of a car tailing Gu Siyu.
Bei Ming Hao Chen’s internal alarm bells rang. Damn it, this little girl, does she have any sense of crisis? Doesn’t she know she’s being followed?
He started the car and sped away.
Gu Siyu had already returned to the bustling city. In reality, she hadn’t noticed anyone following her the entire time.
She was wandering alone on the street when she was suddenly pulled into a strong embrace. She looked up in confusion, “Huh? Hao Chen, what are you doing here?”
“And you’re asking me? What about you? Weren’t you on an autumn outing?”
Bei Ming Hao Chen glared at her angrily. He unconsciously glanced back and noticed the vehicle tailing Gu Siyu hadn’t disappeared. He quickly pulled her into his car.
“Hey, why are you so rough? Don’t you know how to be gentle?”
Gu Siyu raised an eyebrow, displeased. It was one thing for this guy to suddenly appear, but he was also pushing her so roughly. It was too much.
Rough? Gentle?
Heh, she still had the mood to think about this at a time like this. He had to admire her weak sense of crisis. Even now, she still hadn’t noticed?
In a fit of anger, Bei Ming Hao Chen directly turned his body and bit down.
“Idiot.”
He reprimanded her in a low voice and quickly drove away. Seeing Bei Ming Hao Chen appear, the other person didn’t dare to continue pursuing and could only turn away dejectedly.
While Bei Ming Hao Chen was still trying to guess who it was, Gu Siyu had already fallen asleep, leaning on his lap.
“Boss, hurry over. That batch of goods is about to be lost.”
“It’s about to be destroyed. We can’t get it back.”
Bei Ming Hao Chen’s phone rang one after another, but Gu Siyu was asleep. To avoid waking her, he didn’t dare to answer the calls. He could only drive while replying to a text message: “It doesn’t matter. Ensure your own safety. I’m going back first.”
After sending the text message, Bei Ming Hao Chen was finally able to free a hand to stroke the little girl’s head.
The car drove straight into Bei Ming Manor.
“Why are you back so early?”
Upon entering, he found that Mr. Bei Ming and Mrs. Bei Ming were both there.
Gu Siyu’s heart skipped a beat. She had met Mr. Bei Ming very few times. Since she had arrived, Mr. Bei Ming had basically been on business trips.
“Uncle, Auntie.”
Gu Siyu appeared a bit flustered. Bei Ming Hao Chen found it amusing that this girl could also be intimidated by someone.
“Yu Yu, come, sit here.”
“Hey, weren’t you on an autumn outing? Why are you back so soon, and with Hao Chen?”
Zuo Ning asked with some confusion.
Mentioning the autumn outing brought back bad memories. Gu Siyu coughed, not wanting to discuss the topic, hmph ╯^╰~
But honestly, she wondered how the boy was doing. He should be fine.
“Cough, cough, it was too cold. I didn’t think it was fun, so I came back. I just ran into Hao Chen on the way.”
This lie was not convincing at all.
Gu Siyu pouted and chatted with Mr. Bei Ming for a few sentences before leaving.
She always felt a bit uncomfortable talking with men.
Fortunately, Mr. Bei Ming soon called Bei Ming Hao Chen away. Gu Siyu didn’t know why and wasn’t particularly bothered.
Zuo Ning pulled her aside and comforted her, “That’s just his personality. Don’t be angry. Speak your mind directly.”
“Haha, why would I be angry?”
“Uncle and Auntie are very good to me. Why would I be angry?”
Gu Siyu played along.
——
Study Room upstairs.
Mr. Bei Ming slammed the table forcefully, “I just heard that another batch of goods was lost at sea. What have you been doing lately?”
Honestly, not knowing the priorities, not knowing that some things need to be taken seriously?
“Dating.”
Bei Ming Hao Chen retorted without politeness.
Mr. Bei Ming was angry. This brat dared to talk back to him like this, he was truly furious.
“Do you know that Yu Yu is in a very dangerous situation right now? Any of your enemies could harm her.”
Mr. Bei Ming frowned. If he didn’t know Gu Siyu’s identity, he would indeed feel somewhat awkward.
Given Gu Siyu’s current identity, frankly speaking, no matter what happened, he should prioritize protecting Gu Siyu.
“Since you already know Yu Yu is a princess of the Spanish Royal Family, you naturally should know to pay attention to her safety.”
“Losing cargo is unimportant. Losing Yu Yu is absolutely unacceptable.”
Hearing his father defend Gu Siyu so much, Bei Ming Hao Chen chuckled. This girl, relying on just an identity, could make people help her so much, it was truly remarkable.
~
By the time Bei Ming Hao Chen came out of the study, Gu Siyu was no longer in the living room downstairs. He asked someone and learned that the girl had gone to play in the garden.
Standing upstairs, he could see into the garden. A figure was running inside, her long hair flowing.
“Damn girl, it’s about to rain, and you don’t know to stay out of the cold.”
He glanced at the sky, which was overcast. Bei Ming Hao Chen frowned, his mood slightly improved as he spoke. Then he strode to his room, reappeared with a coat, and headed towards the garden.
The heavy rain came quickly. Before Bei Ming Hao Chen could reach her, a downpour had already started. Gu Siyu quickly ran back, but it was too late.
The moment she turned back, she ran into Bei Ming Hao Chen’s embrace.
Ouch, it hurt, her nose almost caved in~
She was wrapped in a coat and carried back to the room.
“Don’t you know how to read the weather?”
Bei Ming Hao Chen reprimanded her. It was obvious from the way she was acting earlier that it was going to rain, yet she insisted on running out.
Speaking of which, their autumn outing wouldn’t be happening now either. With such heavy rain, everyone would surely go home.
Thinking of this, Gu Siyu couldn’t help but sigh. Fortunately, she had returned early. Otherwise, in such heavy rain, with no one to take her home, it would have been a troublesome matter.
In the room.
Bei Ming Hao Chen’s expression was not good, making Gu Siyu feel inexplicably confused, not knowing what she had done to upset him again.
“Do you think you’re so amazing?”
Bei Ming Hao Chen took off his coat and sat down. Although his tone was not good, his actions were incredibly gentle as he helped Gu Siyu dry her hair.
“Yes.”
He hadn’t expected Gu Siyu to go along with his words at all.
Bei Ming Hao Chen was furious. This girl was definitely doing it on purpose.
“Just ensure your own safety. Don’t always think about others.”
“You can save one person, but you can’t save everyone. You’re showing off.”
Bei Ming Hao Chen was angry that she had jumped into the water to save someone today, disregarding the danger.
Didn’t she know it was dangerous? The boys accompanying her hadn’t made such a move, yet she, a girl, really thought she was something special.
“It’s better to save one than none. Who can save everyone?”
Gu Siyu understood from his words that he must have heard about her saving someone. But it was the truth, no one could save everyone. However, if because of that, she didn’t save anyone, wouldn’t that be too much?
“You’re still talking back?”
Bei Ming Hao Chen was angry and pinched her nose forcefully. This girl, she was really pushing her luck. She couldn’t even be told a few words?
“What? Tyrant, you won’t even let me speak.”
Gu Siyu frowned and rolled her eyes.
Bei Ming Hao Chen really didn’t want to talk to this girl anymore. He dried her hair and threw her some clean clothes before finally giving up.
Gu Siyu had no idea that because he was worried about her safety, Bei Ming Hao Chen had abandoned his own affairs today, resulting in a significant loss. This loss was even regrettable to Bei Ming Hao Chen’s father, but since it concerned Gu Siyu’s safety, neither of them said anything.
“Yu Yu, don’t be so impulsive in the future.”
After much thought, Bei Ming Hao Chen finally spoke.
Although this girl had some basic martial arts skills, her impulsive nature would sooner or later lead to trouble.
Moreover, it had been turbulent lately, and he was very worried.
“Okay, I understand.”
“I’m not impulsive. I’ve considered it.”
Gu Siyu nodded, understanding that Bei Ming Hao Chen was looking out for her.
“Don’t talk back. Listening to me won’t be wrong.”
Bei Ming Hao Chen frowned. This girl was becoming more and more stubborn. Couldn’t she just talk properly? Did she have to do the opposite of him?
