Chapter 54 Nanmu Five

  "Isn't that right?" I subtly shifted back and countered with a clever comeback, "You don't understand me."

  Qiao Nanmu raised an eyebrow and asked in return, "Does liking someone have anything to do with understanding them?"

  I hummed and didn't say anything.

  "Gu Qing, the eldest daughter of the Gu family, her father Gu Huamin founded the Gu Group with his own hands and is a figure who can make it rain in the business world; her mother Shen is Gu Huamin's third wife. Your half-brother Gu LiuYi is now the helmsman of the Gu Group, your half-brother Gu Chen controls the underworld of the Gu Group, both are the rising stars of this generation." Qiao Nanmu said in an orderly manner.

  "Stop." I interrupted him, deliberately making things difficult for him: "Does everyone know about these things?"

  Qiao Nanmu looked at me with a hint of impatience, but continued in a good-natured tone: "Gu Qing, 19 years old, AB-type RH-negative blood, extremely rare blood type. Born on July 8th, Leo. Currently a freshman at A University. Has strong preferences for certain things. Suffers from severe acrophobia and refuses to go to high places. Can be a bit spoiled but not malicious. When angry, will stand up straight with all her spines bristling, warning people to keep their distance..."

  I was stunned by Qiao Nanmu's words, and as soon as I reacted, I immediately cut him off fiercely and angrily asked, "How did you know so clearly?"

  Qiao Nan's lips curled up into a faint, enigmatic smile. "Is that clear? When you were six years old, you got into a fight with someone and ended up covered in injuries, especially on your neck where you left a small scar. At seven years old, you had another conflict and hurt your foot, fracturing the bone and requiring surgery. At eight years old, your vocal cords were damaged and you couldn't speak for three months. And at nine years old..."

  Some things, if Qiao Nan didn't mention them, I might not even remember clearly myself, but he spoke of them so fluently without batting an eye, pouring out all the things that had happened in our childhood.

  When I was a kid, I didn't fight less, especially when others said I was a child without a father, I would get particularly angry and start fighting with the other person regardless of anything, so the number of big and small injuries I suffered is countless.

  Qiao Nanmu said: "Gu Qing, I know everything about you, even more clearly than you yourself."

  Is that right? I suddenly couldn't find any words to refute Jo Nanmu's arguments because he was absolutely right, not a single word was wrong.

  "Why?" It's a lie if I say I'm not surprised, I think there probably isn't anyone in this world who can remember another person's past events as clearly as Jionam.

  Qiao Nan lowered her eyes, stretched out her hand to help me fasten the safety belt on my body, and then silently retreated two steps.

  It turned out that he came over just now to help me fasten the open seatbelt, and I thought he had some ulterior motive. For a moment, I despised myself, what a self-righteous person I am.

  The car started again, but this time it went much faster.

  Qiao Nan didn't say anything, and I didn't dare to speak either. He was obviously a decent person, but it seemed that I had thought too much.

  Qiao Nanmu sent me to the Gu's house, and naturally, Gu Huai Min and Shen Bi Ru hadn't returned yet.

  Until I got off the bus, Qiao Nanmu didn't speak again.

  "Well... I'll just go in first then... thanks a lot today." I rubbed my nose, feeling a bit embarrassed.

  Qiao Nanmu didn't get off the car, his hands still on the steering wheel, his eyes gazing into the darkness at a point. I followed his line of sight, but apart from the inky blackness, it was just more inky blackness, and I really had no idea what he was looking at.

  "Because I've known since I was a child that the person I would marry when I grew up is called Gu Qing." In the midst of an awkward silence, Qiao Nanmu's voice drifted over, carrying a hint of inexplicable melancholy.

  Before I could react, he had already started the car and sped away. I stood there in a daze, watching as the black car body merged with the darkness of the night, and all my previous dislike for Qiao Nanmu suddenly vanished.

  Suddenly I feel like we're a bit alike.
