224 Push the heart and turn the belly into a fresh breeze
Shen Ruchu was taken aback and said, "That's not a rumor?" β
"What, do you know the way?" Gong Yunfeng said lightly, in fact, he had already guessed that Shen Ruchu knew the truth, and the rumors released by Qin Zihui were also instructed by him, and his usual gags and gossip were just pretended appearances.
Shen Ruchu put aside Qin Zihui's rumors and said, "I thought it was just a rumor!" Zihui can have a few words of truth in his mouth, and he is a master who listens to the wind and rain. β
She thought about it, and felt that it was not like that, Gong Yunfeng said that there was good news for you, but the news turned out to be that Cui Mingyue was dead; First, how did he know that Cui Mingyue was dead? Second, if he just heard that Cui Mingyue was dead, he couldn't have called himself here so mysteriously? Third, he stressed that this was "good news", specifically for himself, and if he was not involved, why would he say that it was good news?
"How did Cui Mingyue die? What role do you play in this? Shen Ruchu asked vigilantly, but she never expected that Gong Yunfeng would have such great ability and courage to execute the young lady of the General's Mansion! She would never dare to think in this direction. The Gong Yunfeng she knew was a gentle person, a doctor, a scholar, and a Sven, and he would not participate in the fighting, killing, even if Wen Xu talked about it more than once, saying that he had a lot of strength and background.
Gong Yunfeng said: "I thought you could guess." β
He didn't say it directly, but such an understatement undoubtedly gave Shen Ruchu a definite answer, and instantly set off a monstrous wave in Shen Ruchu's heart. Shen Ruchu stroked his chest and said, "Are you saying that Cui Mingyue was killed by you and by you?" β
Gong Yunfeng nodded and said, "If she doesn't die, do you think you can still live?" β
Shen Ruchu was stunned. "But you're going to kill her?" You're a murderer! "She was really shocked that killing people seemed to her to be a big deal. The legal education of the previous life was deeply ingrained in her mind, and it was not a last resort. She wouldn't have had that thought, but for Cui Mingyue...... She really hated it, so much so that she wanted to kill her!
"Who knew I killed her?" Gong Yunfeng said lightly.
Shen Ruchu said: "But...... But ......, "Yes, with Gong Yunfeng's steady personality, it is impossible to leave a handle on things, and this matter is really a big deal, so he will definitely deploy it carefully, so it is not to the point of foolproof." He would never act rashly.
Gong Yunfeng said: "She is dead." β
Shen Ruchu covered his mouth, his heart fluctuated, and after thinking about Gong Yunfeng's words again, he finally figured out a clue and asked, "You killed her because you helped me?" β
Gong Yunfeng is not the kind of person who is in a hurry to invite credit, and said lightly: "That's right." β
The more ambiguous it is, the more curious Shen Ruchu is, and the more she wants to ask what is going on, in her opinion. Gong Yunfeng actually killed people for himself, and he killed people like Cui Mingyue, how did he do it? Why do you want to do this? But the words were swallowed back again, and she asked him at this time. He would never say it.
"I'm finding you more and more mysterious, you're not as simple as a doctor. There seems to be something in you that people can't see through, your life experience, style, and strength...... Never mind. I'm going back, so you can go see my sister too. Shen Ruchu said.
Gong Yunfeng said: "I want to ask you a word." β
Shen Ruchu stood still. The drum beat in his heart, but he did not refuse. "Ask." β
"If it weren't for Meng Yao, would you choose me?" Gong Yunfeng said, although his tone was calm, Shen Ruchu still heard the nervousness and expectation in his words.
Shen Ruchu retreated, sat down again, and said, "Sit down, let's continue to drink tea." It's been a busy few days, and it's rare to have this leisurely elegance. β
Gong Yunfeng looked at Shen Ruchu and said, "I'm asking you." β
Shen Ruchu smiled and said, "I heard it, and I was about to answer you." β
Gong Yunfeng said: "Okay." His pouring of water was somewhat mechanical, apparently waiting for an answer.
Shen Ruchu continued to smile lightly, drinking tea very elegantly, she felt a trace of satisfaction and pride in her heart, for so long, she has always regarded Gong Yunfeng as high, although she has never shown it, but her heart is not the mentality of a little fan? Now looking at Gong Yunfeng's panic, she has a hint of joy: she is finally on an equal footing with this man.
"There aren't so many assumptions in life...... Of course, my opening statement was not flattering, and even I thought it was clichΓ©, but it was the case. My sister really exists, she is in your heart, and she is also in my heart. The two of us enjoyed the love and tolerance she gave with peace of mind, but sat here drinking tea and chatting? Of course, it's not a big deal to drink tea and chat, we are open and open, but what does our heart think? What does it look like to outsiders? If my sister knew all this, how sad would she be? When I think about this, I blame myself because I'm a selfish person. Shen Ruchu said calmly.
"Can you get past my sister? You can't. If you could, you wouldn't be so forbearant and careful, for what? Because you're afraid to hurt her! Can I get past my sister? Neither can I. Ever since I knew that you had sent me a message and asked me to meet here, I had been anxious, full of apologies to her, and I blamed myself for it! I asked myself that I am not a person without a moral bottom line, and I think you are a righteous gentleman and a responsible man. You or me, who of us, can bear that kind of condemnation of conscience? Shen Ruchu was a little excited when he said this.
Even in the modern society where extramarital affairs are very common, Shen Ruchu does not disdain to be a third person, not to mention that this is an ancient time that pays attention to etiquette. In ancient times, extramarital affairs were despised, and it was okay to have three wives and four concubines, but a gentleman did not take away the beauty of others, let alone snatch love, nor coveted other people's wives; In the same way, a woman cannot hook up/partner with a married man.
Gong Yunfeng always looked at her calmly, his eyes were painful, but still soft, like a pool of deep water, as long as he looked at her, it could make people have the urge to drown.
Shen Ruchu said: "What's more, I have Wen Xu now." There's no way I'm going to betray him. His kindness to me is worthy of my life to wait for and reciprocate. I don't expect him to give me glory and wealth, and I'm very satisfied with my life now. She smiled with satisfaction, she was really satisfied with her current state, life and beauty, although she was a little tired, it could be regarded as a reward for her hard work, doing what she liked the most, and what she was most looking forward to - giving birth to a healthy baby.
Gong Yunfeng said: "What about me?" You should know what I want, but you can turn a blind eye. You have taken into account everyone's feelings, but you have not taken into account me, so how can it be fair to me? No matter who I am, I think I am upright, and even if I have affection for you, I think it is okay. In the face of love, I am nothing but a helpless man. β
Shen Ruchu sighed and said, "When you love someone, you can't hide that emotion, you can't pretend not to love; When you don't love someone, you can't pretend to love. I admit that in the past, I was very attracted to you, and I even looked forward to marrying you, hoping that you would marry me and take me out of the predicament of being forced to marry at that time. β
When Gong Yunfeng heard this, his eyes lit up, his body leaned forward slightly, and the tea in his hand splashed out.
Shen Ru saw him behaving like this for the first time, and said with a smile: "You listen to me first and finish my words slowly." I didn't have the courage to tell you this, at least not to admit to my face that I once liked you. I've said I'm a selfish person, I've never been to the point of being desperate for love, I can't do it, and even if I could, I wouldn't do such a stupid thing. In fact, it turns out that missing is missing, and whether you regret it or not, there is no regret medicine. And, we're all happy now, aren't we? In the eyes of outsiders, we all have a happy family, and our other half has something to envy. Sister, that is, your wife, is beautiful and generous, gentle and talented, she is everyone's lady, and she used to be the white lotus in your heart; Wen Xu is smart and capable, simple and kind, and a small military attache with unlimited potential for rise. Shen Ruchu was unprecedentedly calm.
"What exactly are you going to say?" Gong Yunfeng was shocked by a ripple in his heart.
Shen Ruchu said: "I just want to tell you that happiness is actually around us, and the scenery is also around us." We don't have to do stupid things. β
Gong Yunfeng frowned and said, "But you said that you once liked me and expected me to marry you, how should such feelings be released?" β
Shen Ruchu smiled, and found that Gong Yunfeng's question was really naΓ―ve, and said, "You also said that it was once...... It was a thing of the past, but we live in the present. In fact, you should understand, if I still love you now, I won't tell you such emotions, tell you what was in my heart, because I'm afraid that you will know the Tao, and I am afraid that you will laugh at me. The reason why I dare to say it is because I don't love you anymore. You are now just a good friend of mine, the husband of my sister-in-law. If you feel that the current relationship and identity still confuse you and cannot be avoided, we can not meet. β
Gong Yunfeng's face was like ashes, and he said, "This is what you want to tell me?" β
Shen Ruchu said: "Yes, I have nothing but low self-esteem in front of you, I thought I was smart, I thought I had a unique thinking, I thought I could attract you, but you are like a gust of wind, leaving a short memory in my life, and then returned to your mountains and forests, and soon married another girl." I can't afford to love you like this, I dare not love you, and I won't love you. And now, I don't have half of the reverie between men and women for you, I respect you, my sister, Wen Xu, and I also respect myself and am content with my current life, so please be sure to cherish the moment and cherish the people around you. I'm just a breath of fresh air in your life, and you don't have to pursue that feeling of nothingness. (To be continued......)
