Chapter 153: He Still Loves Her
"Excuse me!"
Zhong Qing rubbed her forehead, but her wrist was grabbed by Gu Xiu, and she was shocked until she raised her head and found Gu Xiu, she was relieved.
Gu Xiu's voice was unexpectedly nervous, and he stared at Zhong Qing for fear that she would run away: "Where are you going!" β
"Me?" Zhong Qing was stunned, pointed to the bonfire next to him and the people singing and dancing, and said, "I'm here to see the excitement!" β
"Is it to see the excitement, or to elope with a man?" Gu Xiu was aggressive: "Go out with a man who has just known you for less than an hour, Zhong Qing, you can!" β
Zhong Qing wrinkled his nose and heard that Gu Xiu was sarcastic about himself, although his words were hard to hear, Zhong Qing did not refute him, after all, it was a shame to make a big deal on such a big occasion.
But Zhong Qing's silence was another kind of provocation in Gu Xiu's opinion, had she already acquiesced in her relationship with that person named Hanwen? Gu Xiu was furious, threw Zhong Qing a sentence of "follow me", and grabbed her arm to leave.
Zhong Qing was dragged and staggered, she didn't stand firm on the beach barefoot, and almost threw herself into Gu Xiu's arms again, the latter couldn't bear to see her walk so hard, and just wanted to say something, but Hanwen suddenly appeared and held down Gu Xiu's wrist.
"Her feet are very uncomfortable, as a gentleman, how can you force her?" Hanwen protected Zhong Qing behind him, although Gu Xiu's eyes scared him, but in the matter of protecting the lady, Hanwen felt that it was his duty to protect the lady.
Gu Xiu's forehead burst out with blue tendons, he looked at Zhong Qing who was confused behind Hanwen, and said coldly: "Let the man you just met protect you like this, Zhong Qing, what means do you have?" β
Hanwen didn't know at all that Gu Xiu was showing an awkward and ridiculous jealousy at this time, and he also protected Zhong Qing stupidly: "Please don't say that about Zhong Qing, although we only met today, she is an elegant lady." β
Zhong Qing blinked her eyes, looked at Gu Xiu's appearance of eating Hanwen, and wanted to come out to play a round, but Hanwen protected her behind her, and said very blindly: "Miss Zhong, don't worry, I won't let anyone hurt you." β
"Anyone's" eyelids jumped, but he didn't expect that the son of the chairman of the most prestigious Chinese group in the Maldives would have his head as if he had been squeezed through the door, and he would not be able to observe words and expressions at all.
Gu Xiu stretched out his hand and wanted to pull Zhong Qing: "Come back with me." β
Hanwen was like a hen protecting her chickens, not giving Gu Xiu a chance to contact Zhong Qing, and Gu Xiu felt that his patience was about to reach the limit.
"Is Han Gongzi idle?" Gu Xiu's voice was cold to the bone, he glared at Han Wen, and said, "You are so idle that you are taking care of other people's affairs?" β
Hanwen is actually a very cowardly person, he has never relied on his father and the family company to do anything outside, his life for the first 20 years is like a blank slate, receiving a high-level education and remembering his mother's education: to be a gentleman, always take care of the ladies around him.
Now Hanwen cries out in his heart: Mother, I suddenly have a feeling that I can't take care of other ladies in the future......
Zhong Qing looked at Hanwen who was scared and kept retreating and his legs trembling, and said in his heart that it was fake not to be moved, and it was the first time that someone had defended himself like this, although it was a little ridiculous, but he was indeed persistent.
"YouβDon't come here! I'm telling you there are so many people around here! Won't let you hurt us! Hanwen protected Zhong Qing and retreated, as if Gu Xiu was a flood beast, but Gu Xiu just took a step forward and wanted to pull Zhong Qing.
"Stop making a fuss." Gu Xiu didn't say this to Hanwen, but to Zhong Qing behind him, this girl knew that Hanwen was scared like this, and she didn't say anything, she wouldn't think she was going to hurt her, right?
Gu Xiu's heart was full of nameless fire, if this person named Hanwen was not really stupid, he had a lot to do with Zhong Qing, but they had only known each other for an hour, could they be so good that they would do anything to protect her?
Suddenly, the tall man in the white suit just now suddenly appeared, he pressed Hanwen's shoulder with one hand and took him into his arms, and the other hand grabbed his wrist.
"I'm sorry, this kid doesn't know how to read words." The man in the white suit apologized to Gu Xiu in fluent Chinese: "I'll take him back to educate and educate now, and cause trouble to you and this lovely young lady." β
Hanwen struggled very hard in the hands of the man in the white suit, Zhong Qing wanted to step forward to help, but the man in the white suit smiled and shook his head at her.
"I want you to assure you, lovely young lady, that I won't hurt him."
Zhong Qing suddenly understood the relationship between the two of them, and just wanted to say a few words to Hanwen, when he suddenly felt light, Gu Xiu picked up Zhong Qing and took him away from the beach directly.
Hanwen looked at Gu Xiu's back as he left in a daze, and suddenly realized something.
"What the hell is going on in your head?" The man in the white suit knocked on Hanwen's head, and said helplessly: "Don't you see that Mr. Gu likes Zhong Qing?" You're just messing around in the middle! β
Hanwen pursed his lips and muttered two sentences, not knowing what he was saying.
Zhong Qing covered her face, and the soles of her feet were still stained with sand, she was held in Gu Xiu's arms like a baby, not only the people on the beach, but even the people in the banquet hall were surprised.
It is rumored that the chairman of Y-ing Group has been single for a long time and has never seen his peachy news in any news media, so it turns out that he has such a relationship with Zhong Qing.
"Mr. Gu, ...... you are"
Zhong's face was red from her ears to her chin, she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, she couldn't escape after struggling in Gu Xiu's arms several times, she could already imagine how the people around her looked at her.
"I'll take her back first." Gu Xiu nodded at Chairman Han, the latter smiled embarrassedly, before he was in front of Gu Xiu, he pretended to be clever to introduce Hanwen to Zhong Qing, it turned out that Gu Xiu and Zhong Qing had this kind of relationship!
"Gu Xiu! You let me go! Zhong Qing protested quietly in Gu Xiu's arms, and the hand covering her face refused to let go.
Gu Xiu kicked open Zhong Qing's room door, and with a "bang" the door closed, Zhong Qing felt that his body was light, and the whole person was thrown onto the bed.
Before Zhong Qing could sit up, Gu Xiu's whole person pressed over.
This posture was really too dangerous, Zhong Qing was lying on the soft big bed, less than half a meter in front of her was Gu Xiu's face, she smelled the cologne on his body, and she was almost intoxicated.
Gu Xiu looked at Zhong Qing's face, the pair of pearl earrings were like what the stylist said, they had been well maintained in the past few years, and he thought that she had thrown them away a long time ago.
Zhong Qing turned her head in embarrassment and said, "Mr. Gu, have you drunk too much?" Can you get up first? β
"Why did you leave?" Gu Xiu's voice seemed to contain a rare wine for a hundred years, mellow and thick, and it was also like countless complex emotions intertwined, turning into a feeling deeper than sadness.
Zhong Qing thought he was talking about what happened just now, and explained, "Hanwen asked me to go with him to see the bonfire, I forgot to tell you, sorry." β
In this way, it seems a little ambiguous, Gu Xiu can always break through his own defenses so easily, Zhong Qing's tense nerves turned into fragments, and in the face of him, she seemed to be reluctant to keep her distance.
A voice in her heart roared that it was not enough, struggling to reach out and hug him, but reason calmed Zhong Qing, her hand was against Gu Xiu's chest and wanted to push him away, but Gu Xiu hugged her directly.
"Why are you leaving?"
Zhong Qing's whole body stiffened.
"IβI'm not leaving, I'm not here." Zhong Qing stammered: "Anyway, you, you let go of me first......"
Gu Xiu's head rested on Zhong Qing's shoulder: "I've been looking for you for three years, I want to find you and ask clearly, and ...... I don't dare to meet you. Zhong Qing, in the past three years, have you still liked me? β
Zhong Qing swallowed her saliva with difficulty, thin sweat oozed from her forehead, Gu Xiu may have been drunk, but now he was more awake than ever, Zhong Qing's breath was robbed by the darkness, she finally knew why Gu Xiu imprisoned herself by his side.
It's not hate, but love but don't dare to love.
It turned out that Gu Xiu's deep affection had never changed, no matter how he persuaded himself to hate her over the years, he was forever bound by the love for her, he couldn't escape, and he didn't want to escape.
Now that he has found Zhong Qing, Gu Xiu just wants to get an answer.
But even if Zhong Qing said love, what could it do? She has too many sins on her body, the responsibility of the family is pressed on her, and she also has to bear the conscience condemnation of Xu Ruo's disabled legs, not to mention that if she admits that she still loves Gu Xiu, will she hurt him again?
No matter how many excuses there are, Zhong Qing can't deceive his heart.
"I ......"
"Hum-hum-" The mobile phone in his pocket suddenly vibrate, and the abrupt sound seemed to drag both of them back to reality, Zhong Qing pushed Gu Xiu away and found that he was already asleep.
Seeing that the caller ID was Xu Ruo's name, Zhong Qing walked to the door and picked up the phone.
"Hello?"
"I haven't slept yet." Xu Ruo's gentle voice came from the other end of the phone: "How is it, is everything going well in the Maldives?" β
"It's fine." Zhong Qing looked at Gu Xiu, who was sleeping soundly, and then asked Xu Ruo: "How can I say it, is there really a cure for your leg?" β
Xu Ruodao: "I'm going to meet him tomorrow, and I don't know why I'm a little flustered, so I want to give you a call." If you're by my side, I can have a lot of peace of mind. β
Zhong Qing sighed: "Xu Ruo, I ......"
"I don't mean anything else, don't think about it." Xu Ruodao: "It's just that you accompanied me when I was treated, and now that you are not there, I am a little unaccustomed to it." β
"Can you really heal my leg, are you willing to stay with me all the time?"
Zhong Qing was silent for a long time and said, "I promised to take care of you until you fully recover. β
Xu Ruo half-jokingly said: "Hearing you say that, I really want to be in a wheelchair forever." β
"Don't talk nonsense!" Zhong Qing said: "Many people dream that you can get back on your feet, including me, Xu Ruo, I really hope that you can return to the way you were before." β
