Chapter 287 - If it's really you

"What's wrong? "Stone?" Looking at Lin Sitong's expression, Gu Zhirou's voice unconsciously lowered, and she gently asked Lin Sitong: "Did you suffer outside?"

The head Lin Sitong had buried in Gu Zhirou's neck gently shook, but did not say a word.

"If you suffer any grievances, tell Aunt Gu." Gu Zhirou's hand gently patted Lin Sitong's back, and said in a soft voice, "Aunt Gu doesn't have much ability, but I can still help you vent your anger."

Lin Sitong softly responded with an "En", and the arm hugging Gu Zhirou became even more forceful.

Gradually, Gu Zhirou felt a wet feeling coming from the place where she was leaning on.

Gu Zhirou let out a light sigh, gently patted Lin Sitong's back, and comforted him softly.

"Madam …"

Aunt Wang walked out of the kitchen with a plate of food. Seeing the scene in front of him, she was startled.

Gu Zhirou looked at Aunt Wang, and gently shook her head at her.

Aunt Wang's eyes revealed a look of understanding, she quietly placed the food on the table, then looked at Lin Sitong who was hiding in Gu Zhirou's embrace, acting like an ostrich, her eyes flashed with worry.

"If you don't want to say it, Aunt Gu won't ask anything, okay?" Gu Zhirou hugged Lin Sitong, and said with a gentle expression, as if she was coaxing a child, "But you must remember, no matter what happens, Aunt Gu is here. If you feel wronged, you can come and find me anytime. "

Lin Sitong's body stiffened slightly, and quickly softened again. She lightly nodded her head and replied in a choked voice, "Yes, I know."

"Shitong, if you really feel uncomfortable in your heart, then cry out loud." Gu Zhirou said softly, "It's alright, Aunt Gu is the only one here. Even if we were to cry now, no one else would be able to see us. "

Gu Zhirou's gentle voice came from beside Lin Sitong's ears, and her slender body couldn't help but start to tremble. After Gu Zhirou finished speaking, Lin Sitong's tears seemed to have been released as they fell down one after another.

"Aunt Gu …" Lin Sitong sobbed as she yelled at Gu Zhirou, as if she was trying to vent all the grievances in her heart, and started to wail loudly.

"I'm done, I'm done …"

Gu Zhirou's eyes revealed a look of pain, she patted Lin Sitong's back and muttered.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Sitong's crying slowly calmed down. After a long while, when Lin Sitong felt that she had more or less recovered, she slowly struggled out of Gu Zhirou's embrace and sat upright.

"Do you feel better?" Gu Zhirou looked at Lin Sitong gently and asked.

She blushed a little as she looked at Gu Zhirou. When she thought about how she had cried in Aunt Gu's arms just now, a faint blush rose on Lin Sitong's white and tender face. She embarrassedly pursed her lips and said softly, "Thank you, Aunt Gu."

"Silly child." A faint smile appeared in Gu Zhirou's eyes as sshe gently patted Lin Sitong on the head. Then, he stood up from the sofa and pulled Lin Sitong's hand as she softly said, "Let's go and wash your face."

Perhaps it was because Gu Zhirou's smile was too gentle and her embrace was too warm, Lin Sitong had never felt such a feeling before. Maybe it was because of the crying just now, but it took away too much of Lin Sitong's thought and strength. She obediently gave her hands to Gu Zhirou, and followed behind Gu Zhirou. She obediently walked to the entrance of the washroom, and saw that Gu Zhirou had put hot water in her bath, and also wet a new towel for her.

It was only when the warm temperature covered Lin Sitong's face that she finally came back to her senses.

"I can do it myself …" Lin Sitong lowered her eyes in embarrassment and reached out to grab the towel.

Gu Zhirou did not argue with Lin Sitong. After hearing Lin Sitong's words, she gave the towel to him.

As Lin Sitong held the towel, a wave of indescribable disappointment rose in her heart.

If... If Aunt Gu can continue … That's good.

Thinking of this, Lin Sitong couldn't help but laugh at herself. Aunt Gu being able to treat him like this was already very good, but she was still not satisfied.

As Lin Sitong slowly wiped away the tears on her face, Gu Zhirou gently asked: "Are you hungry now?"

Just as he finished speaking, a loud noise came from Lin Sitong's stomach.

"Swish" a faint blush instantly rose on Lin Sitong's face.

Gu Zhirou's eyes held a hint of a smile: "Aunt Wang has already prepared the food, leave it on the table, quickly go eat!"

Before Lin Sitong could say anything, her stomach suddenly made another noise.

In the morning, she met Pei Qingheng the moment she went out and sent him to the hospital. When Ling Xiaorui arrived, she hurriedly returned to the hotel to retrieve her luggage, then casually got on a bus back to A City. Let alone the rice in the middle, he hadn't even drunk a single drop of water.

Lin Sitong was curious, where did all these tears come from?

Just as he was ridiculing himself in his heart, Lin Sitong casually hung up the towel in his hand. In the end, he met Gu Zhirou's eyes that were full of gentle and smiling. Lin Sitong's movements paused for a while, only then did he realize that he had cried so loudly in front of Aunt Gu! and he was crying his stomach out of hunger in front of Aunt Gu!

Lin Sitong's elegant and beautiful face instantly turned as red as a ripe tomato.

Gu Zhirou could not help but laugh, seeing that Lin Sitong was helplessly standing there, looking at him in a daze, she directly pulled Lin Sitong's hand and brought her to the dining table.

Lin Sitong followed closely behind Gu Zhirou. As she watched Gu Zhirou holding her hand, a warm feeling spread throughout her body.

Originally … Is this how it feels to have a mother?

Lin Sitong came out of nowhere and slightly opened her mouth towards Gu Zhirou, silently calling out the two words "mother".

If... How good would it be if the Aunt Gu was really her mother.

As Lin Sitong thought about this, she couldn't help but tighten her grip on Gu Zhirou's hand.

Gu Zhirou turned around and looked at Lin Sitong with suspicion. After a long while, a gentle smile gradually surfaced in her eyes. She grabbed Lin Sitong's hand tighter, and said with a hint of laughter in her voice: "See, are all the dishes that you like?"

Lin Sitong's eyes were focused on the back of Gu Zhirou as she nodded: "Yes. Thank you, Aunt Gu. "
