Chapter 69: Li Guo confesses
After dinner, Akemi arranged for Lee to stay in the largest room, which was facing south and had a night view of the city across the river.
Akemi poured two glasses of red wine and drank with Li Guo. Suddenly, a loud bang broke the silence between the two. Dazzling fireworks soared into the sky, and fairies flickered in mid-air. As the New Year approaches, people drive to the outskirts to set off fireworks, which become more dazzling at night, and the sparks come in different forms. The night sky is like a beautiful canvas, dotted with open umbrellas, budding flowers, and writhing snakes, drunk and confusing.
Li Guo and Akemi stand side by side on the terrace, admiring the beauty of a moment, and the eternal splendor is achieved between calm and shock.
"Wasn't I too little a citizen just now? Looks like low emotional intelligence. Akemi asked, looking into the distance.
Li Guo glanced at Akemi, smiled and said, "You are like a different person at home, full of thorns, I think you have entered a self-defense mechanism." Does winning white jade make you feel more secure? ”
"I don't want to do that either, there are some wise people who know to keep their emotions in check. And I just couldn't control it, knowing that they wouldn't be around my dad for long, and I still had to be angry with them. Akemi exhaled, as if she had removed the invisible armor on her body, and only in front of Li Guo could she be so relaxed.
"You are powerful in your mouth, but you can't hate it in your heart, Bei Bei is Yang Qiao's daughter, you are so good to her, it can be seen how kind a girl you are." At first glance, it was because of the warm picture of Bei Bei taken care of by Akemi that Li Guocai fell in love with Akemi at first sight.
"Good people don't live long, but disasters live for a thousand years! Ha ha! If I leave this world, you have to open the bookstore and help me fulfill my unfulfilled ideals, okay? Akemi looked at Li Guo's side face, under the light of the fireworks, Li Guo's outline deepened, and she wanted to kiss her husband's cheek, but she couldn't, everything was a phantom of the previous life.
"Hey! I'm an orphan, I'm not as negative as you, why do you say this? You are the daughter of a rich family, how many people envy your life. Lee Kook didn't understand Akemi's concerns.
"You'll understand in the future!" Akemi smiled lightly, lowered her eyebrows and said nothing.
"Remember? these photos. Li Guo took out a photo album, which contained four campus scenery taken by Akemi for Li Guo, as well as photos they took together during this time. One by one, they tell the whole process from acquaintance to acquaintance.
"You've kept it all, and it's so well preserved. Look, our bookstore just opened, and I hid in the store and wouldn't come out. Hahaha. Akemi flipped through the album and suddenly realized that Li Guo brought the album from City C to Gansu, and then from Gansu to City S, and brought it to the present moment after thousands of mountains and rivers, so there must be some purpose.
"I take every photo with me, and wherever people who don't have a home go, there is home, and these photos are probably my most valuable belongings." Li Guo said very emotionally, and tears appeared in the corners of his eyes.
"Then I'm holding your entire net worth now! Haha, you are also a boss now, and you may become the president of the rich side in the future, how can you not have a home? I'm afraid you can make your home wherever you want! Akemi in turn comforted Lee Kook.
"When you have money, you can only buy a house, and as for the home, you still need to have someone who loves each other and form a happy family with children in the same house."
"That's right! There needs to be children at home! "Akemi is a little lost, Li Guo can't give what he wants, in the last life, until he died, Akemi did not leave Li Guo a son and a half daughter.
"I like you!" Li Guo blurted out, staring at Akemi with blazing eyes.
"You...... What did you say? Akemi actually shed tears, in the previous life, Li Guo also liked it with a simple sentence, and the marriage between the two was achieved.
"Akemi, I like you, okay with me? I know I'm ordinary, but I'll take care of you with all my love. Li Guo actually knelt on one knee, like a marriage proposal, took out a couple of rings and held them up in front of Akemi, waiting for a response.
Mingmei gently closed the ring box, helped Li Guo up, and said, "We will always be the best business partners, it's not that you're bad, it's that I already have a heart." Although I have been through a lot with you, it is only friendship, and I am grateful that you saved my life in Gansu, but I can't be with you. ”
"When I was in Gansu, you called me husband once, and I was really happy. If I can really ......" Li Guo was interrupted by Akemi before he could finish speaking. "I said it at the time, I thought you were Zhang Wenhao."
"And what about when I was injured? You kiss me, I didn't fall asleep at the time, I just didn't want to pierce it, so as not to embarrass you, me and Zhang Wenhao. Li Guo took Akemi's hand and looked directly into the other party's eyes, hoping that Akemi would open her heart, Li Guo continued: "I was deeply in love with you before you kissed me. From the first sight of you......"
"Don't say it, I'm sorry, I did it wrong, I have a boyfriend, I shouldn't have kissed you. But that was just a momentary feeling, and then I reconciled with Zhang Wenhao, and you saw it. After speaking, Akemi turned around and wanted to leave.
"I always feel that you are deliberately suppressing your feelings for me, even Zhang Wenhao has something to say, he told me to cherish it before leaving. What to cherish? Of course, he cherished you, and he asked me what love is? I always thought you broke up because of me. Li Guo didn't understand why Akemi avoided this sincere feeling.
"Li Guo, we are young people, we should focus on our careers, I have kissed you, but I never wanted to be with you. I loved Zhang Wenhao at that time, and now I ...... I recently got a new boyfriend and will introduce you to him when I have time. Akemi lied in a hurry and stuffed the photo album in her hand back into Li Guo's arms.
"Kiss me, not responsible for me? It's a strange feeling! Li Guo sneered, no longer arguing, he habitually accepted the arrangement of fate.
"Okay, don't do that, you say as if I'm a playboy and you're a woman from a good family. We will still be good friends in the future, I forgot all about your words today, career is the most important! Boss Lee! Akemi walked to the door, smiled back, and waved goodbye.
"Good night!" Li Guo also waved his hand, Akemi didn't say anything more, and left quickly.
Li Guo took a deep breath and slowly digested Akemi's words just now, and he couldn't accept it for a while, this imminent feeling really shook Li Guo's originally strong heart a little bit.
Akemi returned to the room and was shocked that she was so careless and delivered the wrong message to Li Guo. The most feared thing finally happened, and the most important task in this life is to prevent her husband from falling in love with her.
The new boyfriend who blurted out in a hurry just now, where to find one? Akemi was so anxious that she paced back and forth in the room, Zhang Wenhao was too far away to be a shield. You can only find a new cover as soon as possible, but who would be willing to be a fake boyfriend?
