Chapter 447: No Physical Contact Between Men and Women
After receiving the letter, Su Chen felt like the sky had fallen. He cried for a while, and then went to look for his mother.
The Su family's ancestral home is in the capital, and only Su Chen was born in Ping'an City at that time. His mother's household registration was in Ping'an City. Su Chen's grandparents and his uncle, Prime Minister Su, all lived in the capital. Therefore, after the death of Su County Governor, I sent people to send his body to the capital.
The news was sent to the capital by official post at an expedited speed of 800 miles. Prime Minister Su immediately wrote a letter to Ping'an City after receiving the news, asking Su Chen and his mother to return to the capital to attend the funeral.
His mother also received the letter. Su Chen went to her to ask whether he would leave tonight or tomorrow morning. Who knew that Xiao Min shook her head repeatedly, "I won't go. There are refugees everywhere now. Wouldn't it be like sending myself to death?"
"Besides, he is dead, what's the point of me going?"
Su Chen didn't expect his mother to be so cold and indifferent. He was extremely sad and angry for a while, and impulsively pushed his mother to the ground and rushed out.
When he went to his mother's yard, he only brought a servant with him. When he ran out, the servant chased him and fell down. When he got up again, Su Chen ran away.
Su Chen ran alone in the heavy rain for half an hour.
I don't know how he ran to Gu Fei.
When he saw Gu Fei, he felt that the world was vast. In this world, only she was his last comfort.
Su Chen hugged Gu Fei, as if he was holding the last straw.
Gu Fei gestured to Lian'er to bring a dry towel to wipe the water off Su Chen, while listening to Su Chen's intermittent talk about those things.
Finally, Su Chen finished talking, and Gu Fei whispered: "You got caught in the rain, sit for a while, dry your hair, and change clothes, okay?"
Su Chen just shook his head, sobbing and hugged Gu Fei tightly.
Gu Fei had no choice but to comfort him softly, "There will always be some unbearable pain in life, but you have to get through it. Don't be too sad, it will hurt your body--"
As she was speaking, Gu Fei seemed to hear the sound of horse hooves, mixed with the sound of rain, and it was not very clear.
Then, Gu Fei felt that she was pulled away by a strong force, accompanied by a roar, "What are you doing?"
She cried out in panic, and saw Su Chen, who had lost his support, shaking twice with a pale face, and then closed his eyes and fell down softly.
Gu Fei rushed over to help him, but Xiao Yu grabbed her, his eyes burning with anger, "What are you doing?"
"You don't know that men and women should not touch each other?"
Gu Fei looked at him for two seconds, shook off his hand, and pointed at Su Chen on the ground, "Didn't you see what he looked like?"
"He just knew his father had passed away, and his mother was so cold and indifferent. Do you know how much of a blow he suffered?"
"You are his cousin anyway, but you didn't comfort him, and you just started to fight him, Xiao Yu, don't you think you're going too far!"
After Gu Fei finished speaking, she called Tie Niu to help Su Chen up with her.
Xiao Yu was stunned by what Gu Fei said.
It was raining heavily when he returned to the city today, so he took a shortcut back to the palace.
When he arrived at the side door of the palace, he saw several servants running around with umbrellas, shouting "Young Master".
When he asked, a servant said that the young master ran away in the rain alone, and no one knew where he ran to.
Xiao Yu didn't ask why Su Chen ran out. He just rode his horse towards the inn.
But when he entered the door, he saw Su Chen and Gu Fei hugging each other.
