Chapter 167: Breaking the Rules
Inside the room of Youda.
Only Gu Xi and Huo Tingjun.
He lay on the bed, and she sat next to him.
Five years on, the furnishings haven't changed at all.
From the wedding night to the time she packed her luggage and moved out of the Huo family.
The events of that time are still vivid in my mind, and they seem to be passing by in the past.
"Ahem......"
The man's coughing voice broke the silence and pulled Gu Xi's trance-like mind back.
She looked down at him, and with a single glance, she fell into the deep ocean beneath his eyes.
Gu Xi's throat tightened and asked, "Are you awake?" ”
Huo Tingjun: "Well, fortunately you're still here." ”
His words made Gu Xi's cheeks hot.
He almost collapsed down the stairs just now.
Fortunately, he grabbed a handrail before he completely lost consciousness, cushioned for a few seconds, and was rushed up by Huo Chenye, who reacted quickly, to hold him steady.
The doctor examined him and said that he was in a state of flux, and after the injection, he had eased up.
But his body, which had only been withdrawn last night, had risen again, and he was now in a low-grade fever.
He was so sick that he was dazed, but he kept holding Gu Xi's hand and never let go.
Seeing this, Old Lady Huo could only temporarily dispel the idea of driving Gu Xi away.
At the moment, as long as Huo Tingjun can get better quickly, she can't care so much.
The man looked at her deeply, and Gu Xi was so stared at by him that he wanted to run away inexplicably: "I'll go and pour you a glass of water." ”
She got up, but her wrist was choked by him: "Gu Xi, I need you." ”
Gu Xi's shoulders shook, and she tried hard to digest his words.
"I won't be going until you recover, don't worry."
He was hurt because of her, and she couldn't just walk away.
"You understand that I didn't mean that, Gu Xi, I want you to stay with me forever." Huo Tingjun was word-by-word, and he could not refuse.
Gu Xi's heart was beating violently.
She turned and looked at him, "Why?" I don't understand, you obviously hated me so much before, and you couldn't wait to divorce me and marry Gu Meng, but this time, you risked your life to go into the fire to save me and save my family, I can't figure it out until now. ”
"Because I'm in love with you." Huo Ting said bluntly.
The clock on the wall, the second hand ticking and ticking.
But each other's worlds seem to stand still.
Gu Xi couldn't believe what he had heard.
Huo Tingjun said that he liked her......
Her pink cherry petals, tightly squeezed together.
It took a while to calm down before she calmed down.
turned around and faced him: "What about Gu Meng?" You don't love her anymore? ”
Back then, she had persuaded him not to fully trust Gu Meng, and reminded him that Gu Meng was not worthy of his love.
But he finally decided to marry Gu Meng.
Why did you change your mind?
At the mention of Gu Meng, Huo Tingjun's expression stiffened slightly.
"I broke up with her a long time ago."
On the night of Yipin in the mountain city, he forced Gu Meng, so he made up his mind to be responsible for her for the rest of his life.
Because of his responsibility, he forbears and tolerates Gu Meng again and again, turning a blind eye to what she has done.
But he still couldn't deceive himself.
He couldn't fall in love with Gu Meng, because the woman in front of him who bumped into his life in the form of "cheating marriage" couldn't help but fall.
The ins and outs of the relationship between Huo Tingjun and Gu Meng, Gu Xi didn't know.
She thought that Huo Tingjun and Gu Meng had fallen in love deeply.
She looked at Huo Tingjun thoughtfully, when he mentioned Gu Meng now, his face was surprisingly cold, and his eyes were unwarm.
Gu Xi unconsciously felt a chill in his heart.
Huo Tingdu's determination and ruthlessness scared her.
"But she used to be the woman you loved deeply, she was pregnant for you, do you really have no nostalgia for her?"
Huo Tingjun closed his eyes and was silent for a moment.
"Nope."
To be precise, he has never loved Gu Meng, only responsibility.
Gu Xi was silent.
How much he used to love Gu Meng, she knew very well.
Back then, before the operation, when his life and death were uncertain, he left everything he had to Gu Meng, and when he was worried about Gu Meng's future, Gu Xi couldn't help but be moved.
How strong the love was at that time, how cold the decision is now.
Because he witnessed the unhappy marriage between his parents since he was a child, Gu Xi's view of love is relatively negative.
She doesn't believe that there is long-lasting love in the world, and even if there is, it is very rare.
Gu Xi asked herself if she had no such luck to be able to meet a man who loved her to death.
What's more, the other party is Huo Tingjun who is calling for wind and rain.
What kind of woman does he want? How long can he maintain his liking for himself?
Therefore, before Gu Xi could construct the possibility of herself and this man in her mind, the voice of reason woke her up.
"Thank you for liking me, but, your feelings, forgive me for not being able to give you a response."
