Chapter 790: Chapter 790

"If Brother Gu wants to eat, I’ll have someone bring some later..."

"I just want the one in your hand." Gu Li, already in a foul mood, couldn’t control his emotions for a moment, and his tone suddenly changed.

Yes, he was angry, for the first time he was angry with Jun Wuchen.

Angry that he started lying to him, concealing things, angry that he had someone he liked and yet wasn’t willing to tell him.

Should he be happy Wuchen has someone he likes? No, he’s more deeply hurt by it.

Jun Wuchen froze, the smile on his face stiffening, staring blankly at Gu Li.

He hadn’t expected Gu Li to react so strongly, so unexpectedly.

"Brother Gu, what’s wrong with you?"

Gu Li knew his loss of composure had frightened Jun Wuchen, so he hurried to adjust his emotions, though his tone was still somewhat firm: "Wuchen, tell Brother Gu the truth, do you have someone you like?"

"I..." Jun Wuchen lowered his head slightly, looking at the lollipop in his hand, his thumb brushing the candy, clearly unwilling to say much.

"Which family’s girl?"

"Not willing to tell me?" Gu Li stared at Jun Wuchen, who continued to hide things from him, feeling as if his heart had been torn open, continuously filled with cold wind; this is what it feels like for one’s heart to grow cold.

This was the person he had carefully cared for, cherished, placed at the center of his heart, unwilling to let him suffer even a little, believing that the concern and love he gave to Jun Wuchen far surpassed what he showed his own younger brother, Gu Sheng, and yet he hadn’t expected that, after twenty years, their relationship would slowly become distant.

And Jun Wuchen’s distance from him was actually because of a woman...

Had he always believed that even if he, Gu Li, married someone else, and Jun Wuchen found his own place, their feelings between them would not change, had he overestimated his importance?

"Just what?" Gu Li persistently questioned.

"Brother Gu, you’ve seen my situation. Even if I really like someone, there’s no possibility, after all, no girl would want to spend her life with a cripple. Even if she wanted to, I couldn’t let her suffer." Jun Wuchen laughed bitterly, then handed the candy to him.

"If Brother Gu wants to eat, take it, it’s just a candy anyway."

Seeing the self-pity in Jun Wuchen’s eyes, Gu Li’s heart ached intensely, wishing he could raise his hand and slap himself.

He had really gone crazy, considering Wuchen as so undeserving.

What kind of person is Wuchen? Shouldn’t he know better than anyone?

Why be angry with him?

If he doesn’t want to talk, why force him?! Chapters fırst released on novel fire.net

Caring for him so diligently, how could he let him suffer any grievance?

Guilt and self-blame suddenly filled his entire chest.

Gu Li extended his hand, pushed back the hand that Jun Wuchen had offered with the candy, and solemnly promised him:

"Wuchen, believe in Brother Gu, Brother Gu will definitely find a way to heal your leg, I will make sure you stand up."

Wuchen doesn’t want to speak, surely because he doesn’t want that girl to be disturbed, he should have thought of that long ago.

"It doesn’t matter, even if I can’t stand up in this life, it’s okay, Brother Gu, you don’t need to pressure yourself for me."

"I will definitely find a way." Gu Li said as he stood up.

"You have a good rest, I’ll head back now."

"Okay, I’ll definitely be there on the eighth of next month."

"..." Gu Li looked at Jun Wuchen, and after a while, reluctantly nodded.

Without saying another word, he turned and left directly.
