"why?"

Gu Zhien sat up from the bed at some point, looking at Shi Zhuo's back with complicated eyes as he hugged the quilt in the dark.

The word "why" contains a lot of meanings.

Someone asked him why he lied to him?

Someone asked him, why didn't she tell him when she knew he liked Su Qi? They had already made it clear in front of Su Qi's elders, but she didn't say anything, watching him struggling with his feelings for Su Qi. Was she deliberately trying to make fun of him?
I asked him what he really thought and whether he considered him as a friend.
There are so many things I want to ask.

"Why do you think that is?"
Shi Zhuo's eyes were cold and distant in the darkness.

Without waiting for Gu Zhien to answer, Shi Zhuo asked, "Do you think I deceived you? I deliberately concealed my relationship with Su Qi and didn't tell you? You even think that the person who had dinner with me last Saturday was Su Qi, and I told you and asked you to help me choose the outfit for the 'date'. I was playing a trick on you? I want to see your ugly face after you find out the truth."

After he finished speaking, the room fell silent.

After a while, Gu Zhien said in a low and trembling voice: "Isn't it like this?"

There was a chuckle from the doorway.

"What if I tell you now that there is another hidden story? I have never thought of competing with you for Su Qi, and you probably won't believe it."

Shi Zhuo had a smile on his face, but his eyes were extremely cold. "Oh, then congratulations, you are finally smart and guessed everything right. I just wanted to see you make a fool of yourself, to see you happily thinking that you are being held in Su Qi's palm, and then being thrown heavily to the ground and stepped into the mud."

"Why are you doing this?" Gu Zhien said with a choked voice.

Why should I admit it? Why should I go along with what he said?

Even if I continue to lie to him, is that okay?

"Why?" Shi Zhuo's voice sounded extremely cold in the darkness, "Because we are different people, and we never have been."

They are two sides of the same coin, two extremes.

They all look soft and beautiful on the surface, but Shi Zhuo is a blade wrapped in cotton. Those who think he is kind and want to bully him will eventually be stabbed by him with blood on their hands.

He is not as kind as Gu Zhien, nor is he as pure as Gu Zhien.

He never does unnecessary things, and always considers his own interests and current situation first. However, his experiences from childhood to adulthood have always kept him at a distance from the world and the people around him.

Saying "I'm not her boyfriend" publicly in the ward was a rare decision in his life where impulse prevailed over interest.

He took some risks for this.

But he was allowed to take a greater risk in this matter, and even took out the "couple contract" he signed with Su Qi and the transfer records, just to make Su Qi and Gu Zhien clear up this misunderstanding?

Sorry, he can't.

If they don't believe in the "couple contract", he will be labeled as a "liar" and leave a bad impression in front of Su Qing.

What if they believed it?
Su Qi has lost his memory now, so as Su Qi's "accomplice", he, Shi Zhuo, has to face the anger of the head of the Su family, one of the four major families, after being deceived.

Whether it was from Su Qi and Su Qing, or the "500 million check", or his later contact with Su Qi's mother...

All signs indicate that Su Qi's mother is an arrogant and extremely selfish person.

The head of one of the four major families was deceived and fooled by two young men?
When the "couple contract" is exposed, the head of the Su family will be angry with his daughter Su Qi, but the remaining anger will definitely fall on him, the outsider who once teamed up with Su Qi to deceive her.

He is just an orphan with no power or influence. How can he deal with the anger of the head of a noble family?

Even Su Qi's mother doesn't need to show up in person. As long as she shows an attitude, there will be many people willing to help her do those things.

This is the inequality between people caused by inequality in status and power.

He had finally come to where he is today, living and going to school in City C. He didn't want to be driven out again and live a precarious life outside the city.

Even if the "couple contract" is exposed one day, Su Qi, the heir of the Su family, should bear the greatest anger, and he must be the "innocent victim" in the whole incident.

Even the sentence “I’m not her boyfriend” would become evidence that he was an “innocent victim”.

Prove that he had "struggled" and tried to tell everyone the truth, but no one was willing to believe it. Even after Su Qi's memory was restored, he could not find a reason to embarrass him.

On the contrary, Su Qi would be grateful to him.

I am grateful that he tried to tell the truth when Gu Zhien was in pain and sadness.

Even Gu Zhien didn't believe it in the end.

Look, he is such a cold, selfish, despicable person, and every step he takes is calculated. How can he be the same kind of person as the kind and simple Gu Zhien?
"We, aren't we friends?" Gu Zhien looked at his back sadly.

"Friends?" Shi Zhuo's voice became even colder, and he asked back, "When did we become friends? You are not naive enough to think that we are friends just because we have said a few words to each other, right?"

there has never been.
Never.

"Shi Zhuo?"
Gu Zhien felt very uncomfortable.

However, this time, Shi Zhuo did not respond to him and left the guest room holding the quilt.

Shi Zhuo looked at the night scene outside the window of the ward's living room.

He felt that most of the time, he was more sober than Gu Zhien.

He clearly knew what kind of person he was and the gap between people like him and the Su family. But at the same time, while he was awake, he was constantly falling into depravity.

The smile on Shi Zhuo's lips gradually turned cold.

Before 2 a.m., Su Qing drove back to his residence.

When she was lying on the bed getting ready to sleep, she suddenly asked about Shi Zhuo's ending in the book?

"Host, don't you always care about things other than missions?" The system was puzzled. "Curious." Su Qing.

Su Qing only had the general direction of the plot and content related to the mission.

If she wanted to know the plot beyond the mission, she would need to obtain key clues by completing missions like Fu Yihan's camera side mission.

Shi Zhuo's ending in the book has nothing to do with her mission, so she doesn't know the details.

"As a vicious male supporting role..."

"Vicious male supporting role?"
Su Qing interrupted it.

"Yes, a character who competes with the hero for the heroine and creates obstacles on the road to a happy ending for the hero and the heroine, if not a vicious male supporting role, then what is he?" the system asked back.

"..."

"Anyway, it didn't end well."

"What do you mean?" Su Qing.

It felt like the Shi Zhuo the system was talking about was a completely different person from the Shi Zhuo she knew.

The Shi Zhuo she knew was clearly a simple and hardworking male college student.
but……

Thinking back to the time when Shi Zhuo and Su Qi were getting along, Su Qing was a little unsure for a moment.

"Are there no related side quests?" she asked.

Just like Fu Yihan.

"No." System.

Su Qing opened his mouth and finally yawned: "Forget it, go to sleep."

We will resolutely not contribute to such a vicious working system as "007"!

In the morning, 7:.
Su Qing woke up from bed on time.

After getting dressed, she went to the bun shop downstairs and bought a red bean paste bun, two steamed dumplings, and a cup of preserved egg and lean meat porridge. When she came back, she saw the elderly people in the community surrounding the red sports car she had just picked up yesterday.

"Whose car is this? It looks so high-end?"
"I don't know. I didn't see it when I came back from shopping yesterday afternoon."
"Tsk tsk, this is incredible, a rich person has moved into our neighborhood."
"Oh, a sports car is so great? My son drives a Mercedes-Benz!"
"Yes, maybe it's second-hand."
……

Su Qing walked past with something in his hand without looking around.

Let’s drive it back to the Su family, Su Qing thought.

Parking here does look a bit eye-catching.

So, she waited until she finished her breakfast and went downstairs, and drove away quickly while the old people were not there. This time, she was smarter and put on a thick coat, a hat, a scarf, and a pair of plush gloves.

Except for the strong wind, everything else was fine.

Su Qing drove a sports car to the hospital.

Su Qi was discharged from the hospital today, and as her aunt, she had to go and watch over her. As a result, she accidentally encountered that the hospital elevator was broken and was under repair.

Su Qing looked at the time and prepared to go up the stairs at the back.

As soon as I turned the corner, I saw Gu Zhien standing by the stairs with seafood porridge in his hand. A male Omega who looked somewhat similar to him and seemed to be in his thirties was standing in front of him and whispering something to him.

"Hello." When Gu Zhien saw Su Qing, he hurriedly and nervously stood in front of the strange Omega.

"Well, good morning to you too."
Seeing him like this, Su Qing didn't ask any more questions. She just nodded casually and went upstairs.

The Omega behind Gu Zhien stared at Su Qing's face in a trance when she appeared.

Omega didn't come back to his senses until Su Qing's figure disappeared in the corridor.

"Dad, I'm fine, don't worry. A friend of mine got sick recently, so I..." Gu Zhien said to the male Omega in front of him.

His eyes were still a little swollen when he spoke.

He didn't want his father to know about Su Qi, especially after he found out that he had become Su Qi's "cheating object".

Because he is very confused now.

If Su Qi hadn't been in a car accident on Saturday night while looking for him, and then lost her memory, they would probably have broken up by now.

"Who is she? Who was that person just now?" Gu Zhien's father came back to his senses and asked with a somewhat strange mood.

"She? She is an elder I know." Gu Zhien said hesitantly.

One side wanted to hide it, and the other side was in a wrong state. For a moment, neither the father nor the son noticed anything unusual about each other.

Gu Tingyu tightly grasped the bag of medicine in his hand and wanted to ask something, but in the end he didn't ask.

"Please take care of yourself. Dad will go back first. Your Aunt Zhang is still waiting for Dad's medicine." Gu Tingyu said.

The Gu family is a single-parent family.

Gu Zhien was raised by her father Gu Tingyu alone, and "Aunt Zhang" was a neighbor downstairs. Because the aunt was sick and her family was not at home, Gu Tingyu kindly came to the hospital to help buy medicine, and that's how he met Gu Zhien.

"Okay, Dad." Gu Zhien nodded quickly.

After seeing off Gu's father, Gu Zhien leaned against the wall next to him and took a while to calm down before silently carrying the seafood porridge upstairs. As soon as she reached the floor where Su Qi's ward was located, she received a message from Gu's father:
"Jie'en, the person I met by the stairs, is his last name Su?"
