Especially feeling Gu Sheng’s icy warning gaze, Cheng Xia was completely uncomfortable.
It felt like being targeted by a venomous snake.
He couldn’t help but glance at Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng was also looking at him, his gaze really unfriendly. Even though Gu Sheng was smiling, with dimples on both cheeks that made him seem utterly harmless, the look in his eyes was chilling to the bone.
Cheng Xia was somewhat puzzled and bewildered.
He didn’t understand why this person was looking at him with the kind of gaze one reserves for a rival in love.
"He is... my second elder brother."
"Oh, so he’s your brother," Cheng Xia’s smile widened when he heard that Gu Yao had a brother.
It seemed he had thought too much, he was just overly protective.
"Nice to meet you, your brother really cares for you, to personally accompany you from so far."
Well, it is care, isn’t it? To outsiders unaware of the truth, doesn’t his action seem like care, like what a model good brother would do?
"You must be tired after such a long flight. I’ve already cleaned up that apartment for you with two classmates, let’s head over now. You can take a hot shower and rest well tonight, tomorrow..."
"No need, we’ve already changed where we will be staying."
Without waiting for Cheng Xia to finish, Gu Sheng had already grabbed Gu Yao’s hand and left.
"I’ll report to the school tomorrow."
Gu Yao knew that saying no to Gu Sheng at this time would definitely trigger another temper tantrum followed by him forcing her to compromise, so she didn’t struggle, just said an apologetic word to Cheng Xia and followed Gu Sheng.
We? Change places to stay?
Cheng Xia was somewhat confused by what Gu Sheng meant.
Watching Gu Sheng pulling her away, not consulting Gu Yao about her opinions, Cheng Xia suddenly started to doubt if they were even real siblings.
After they had walked a bit further, Gu Yao directly shook off Gu Sheng’s hand. The rıghtful source is novel·fiɾe·net
"What’s wrong?" Gu Sheng turned around, asking in a good-natured tone.
"Why change where I’m staying?"
When exactly did he find out she was coming to the United Kingdom, knowing even where she would stay, even going as far as changing her accommodations?
Was he so sure back in the Capital City that he could come with her to the United Kingdom?
Of course, how could he not, his greatest skills were always threats and intimidation.
Threatening her with the lives of those innocent passengers on the plane, how could she not agree to this lunatic’s demands?
"That apartment is too crowded, too small, and the security is poor. Miss Gu from the Gu Family, how could you stay in such a place?"
His Yaoyao was more precious than anything, how could he allow her to suffer in such a place?
"I’m here to study, not to travel, plus everyone living there is a student, what security issues could there be?"
"Listen to your second brother, the place I found is definitely better than that small apartment, and closer to the school as well. We are staying there."
Throughout, Gu Sheng maintained a calm demeanor.
It wasn’t an act; this was how he used to be.
No, he used to be only towards Gu Yao.
Yet his demeanor, having seen him often fierce and daunting, really unsettled Gu Yao, not feeling closeness, only horror and fear.
"What if I say no?" Gu Yao looked at Gu Sheng coldly.
"Yaoyao, your second brother has a bad temper. That apartment is full of students, if I accidentally cause a conflict with them, I fear it might scare them."
A chill settled in Gu Yao’s heart.
Indeed, Gu Sheng was still Gu Sheng, not changed at all, just lip service.
Threats, he would forever only resort to threats, intimidation, and forced violence.
