Chapter 213: Messy
"I just mean well..."
Pan Jinlian hated him so much, did he have to look at her like that? Was she really that bad looking?
"You don't have to pretend to be kind, I can do it myself..." Gu Tingxiao said as he patted the corner of his clothes that was almost touched by her, as if it was stained with something dirty.
"You..." Pan Jinlian was furious, but helpless!
"What do you mean... Didn't we make it clear last time? How dare you come to my house?" Mrs. Gu couldn't help but retort. She thought she had gotten enough of her punishment last time, but she didn't expect that Pan Jinlian would come again not long after.
"Sister-in-law..." Pan Jinlian called softly, with an appearance of respect for her elders.
"Don't shout like that, I'm not your sister-in-law." Mrs. Gu took two steps back. She had no good feelings towards Pan Jinlian who was trying to establish a relationship with her.
After hearing what his sister-in-law said, Gu Tingxiao looked at Lin Xi and asked Lin Xi with his eyes what did Sister-in-law Gu mean? What did she mean by coming last time? Did this Pan Jinlian come when he was not there?
Then why didn't anyone tell him? But no matter how much he looked at Lin Xi, she just wouldn't look at him.
"Mom, what's going on? What does my sister-in-law mean?"
When Gu Tingxiao saw that Lin Xi didn't look at him, he became a little anxious and resentful in his heart why no one told him about such a big thing, which was closely related to him.
"Fifth brother, just listen to me and I will explain it to you slowly. Don't be anxious or angry." Mother Gu didn't know why Lin Xi didn't tell her fifth brother last night. She thought she would tell him last night so she deliberately didn't say anything.
How could he not be anxious and angry, but he knew that being anxious was useless. The most important thing at the moment was to understand the cause and effect of the matter and solve the problem.
"Okay, Mom, you talk... I'm listening." Gu Tingxiao tried hard to calm himself down.
"This is what happened..."
As Mother Gu spoke, she carefully observed Gu Tingxiao's expression, trying to read something from his face, but unfortunately, Gu Tingxiao's expression remained as cold as ever, and only at the end could she see a hint of anger!
"So it was you. I saved you out of kindness that day, but I didn't expect you to slander me in return. If I had known this day would come, I would have left without hesitation and left you to fend for yourself!"
Gu Tingxiao's cold eyes pierced Pan Jinlian like a knife. He didn't expect that a good deed he did would bring him so much trouble. If he had known this, he would not have meddled in other people's business!
"Have you forgotten what happened after you saved me that day? We were like that in the bushes that day." Pan Jinlian touched her slightly bulging belly and said in a suggestive way!
"What do you mean? Gu Tingxiao, can you explain to me what she meant?"
Lin Jue's furious voice reached everyone's ears. He came over because he saw that Gu Tingxiao had not returned to the team for a long time. He did not expect to hear such explosive news. Then he strode to Lin Xi's side.
Lin Xi's mind was buzzing and she didn't know how to end this. This was getting troublesome!
"Wow, why does this woman look so familiar?"
"Isn't she the woman who came to see Gu Laowu before and was driven away?"
"Why are you here again? Don't you think Gu Laowu has done anything to offend me? Otherwise, why would he come here again with a big belly?"
"No way! Gu Laowu is such an honest person..."
"The more honest a person is, the more likely it is!"
At this time, everyone in the village had finished breakfast and was preparing to go to work. When they saw the excitement, they stopped and started talking about it. There were all kinds of things said at the moment.
"I don't even know her name. She slandered me. I would rather die than do anything to hurt Xiaoxi."
Facing Lin Jue's questioning, Gu Tingxiao remained very calm and said everything that was in his mind.
"Brother Gu, are you going to abandon me? I asked someone to check it out, and they said that I'm pregnant with a boy. I will definitely give you a big fat boy, believe me!"
Most people of this era have the idea of favoring boys over girls, especially the villagers, who all want a boy to carry on the family line. She doesn't believe that Gu Tingxiao's parents will not be tempted. As long as they are willing to speak for her, she will definitely be able to marry Gu Tingxiao.
"Whether your child is a boy or a girl has nothing to do with me. The child is not mine. You should go find the child's father instead of me."
If she hadn't been a pregnant woman, Gu Tingxiao would have kicked her long ago. She would not have the chance to make a fuss here!
"You are the child's father! How can you not admit it? How can I and the child live? You are trying to kill me!" Pan Jinlian said while wiping the tears from her face, as if she had really been abandoned.
"Gu Laowu, you wouldn't really have done that, would you? If you really did, you should admit it if you are a man, so that you can give others an explanation!"
"Yes! You can't just be unwilling to acknowledge Lin Zhiqing because he has a good family background and is rich, right?"
There were people who liked to watch the fun and didn't mind making trouble and started to make a noise!
"If I say I didn't do it, then I didn't do it. Why should I admit something I didn't do... why do you have to mind my business!" Gu Tingxiao no longer cared about whether he would offend the villagers or not, and shouted loudly!
"No, no, why are you talking so loudly? I'm almost deafened by you."
People who were close to Gu Tingxiao couldn't help but take a few steps back, fearing that he would yell again.
"Then why didn't you think of this result when you were meddling in other people's business? You are such a busybody!"
Gu Tingxiao didn't expect that these villagers were so jealous of others' good fortune. Fortunately, he helped them a lot when he was at home. It was really a case of good intentions not being rewarded!
"And you, I don't care what your reason is for relying on me, but I tell you clearly, if you continue to act like this, don't blame me for being rude!" Gu Tingxiao stared at Pan Jinlian coldly, wishing he could cut her into pieces!
“Child, since your father doesn’t want you and your mother anymore, why don’t I take you with me? You can be my child in the next life!” Pan Jinlian was caressing her belly lovingly one second, and suddenly ran into the wall of Gu’s courtyard the next!
Ha! She even threatened to commit suicide. It seemed like she had no other options.
How could Lin Xi let her get her wish? She clamped her in one step, and Pan Jinlian's whole body was only one centimeter away from the wall, unable to move!
"If you miss, then go die far away and don't pollute my eyes here."
Lin Xi lowered his head and whispered in Pan Jinlian's ear, but there was no warmth in his eyes!
Pan Jinlian looked at her in shock, and suddenly felt a chill on her back. She was even more frightened when she saw her cold eyes!
