Chapter 445 Let’s Try It
The first person Wang Yuanling saw when he opened his eyes was...
It’s still Gu Zhou.
Ripples appeared in the calm heart.
"Awake?" Gu Zhou immediately leaned over to her, his deep eyes filled with tenderness. "Does it still hurt? I'll call the doctor."
He said, and immediately stood up.
"Gu Zhou." Wang Yuanling called out hurriedly, his voice as soft as a cat's meow.
Gu Zhou seemed to be restrained by something heavy and immediately sat back in his seat.
He looked at her intently, intently, and lovingly without blinking.
"You say." His voice was low and magnetic.
Wang Yuanling continued, "I'm sorry I didn't tell you about Fei Jiayi ahead of time. I just predicted she would cause trouble at the engagement party, but I wasn't sure, so I didn't tell you ahead of time."
When I think of how she appeared just now with a weak and pale face.
Gu Zhou's eyes darkened: "You should apologize to your body. Even if you don't show up tonight, I will take care of this matter. You shouldn't run away despite your physical discomfort." His throat rolled, suppressing the surging heartache and anger.
Wang Yuanling looked at him steadily with clear eyes, knowing everything: "Are you going to continue to deal with this in a way that will cause others to misunderstand you?"
Gu Zhou's Adam's apple rolled slightly when asked this question, and his expression became unnatural: "This way, fewer people will be involved."
This is a disguised admission.
If she hadn't shown up.
He's going back to his old ways.
Wang Yuanling did not comment, but just stared at him deeply.
He clearly didn't say a word.
But Gu Zhou reflected on himself thoroughly in just a few seconds.
He curled his lips slightly and laughed at himself, "There's nothing wrong with this. At least it makes you stop watching and start paying attention to me. In this way, I actually make a profit."
As if to get her attention.
It is something very precious and worth showing off.
Wang Yuanling felt his breathing was choked and his chest was beating violently.
"However." Gu Zhou raised his eyebrows. "After you are discharged from the hospital, I will send business personnel from Gu's company to contact Health City to follow you. In fact, they are bodyguards, but I will find two shorter ones. This way, they will not attract attention and can protect you."
"I……"
Gu Zhou thought she was going to refuse, and said domineeringly: "Either you accept my confession, or you accept my sending bodyguards to protect you, choose one."
Wang Yuanling looked at his face which suddenly became serious.
He chuckled.
Gu Zhou was confused: "What are you laughing at?"
He deliberately kept his voice low, speaking with an air of arbitrariness that brooked no argument: "In short, between the two, you must choose one."
Wang Yuanling's eyes, which seemed to ooze tears, stared straight at him.
Gu Zhou’s psychological defenses were about to break.
"Look, I'm useless. If you don't choose me, I'll be..."
"Can't I choose both?"
Wang Yuanling's gentle voice, like a feather, brushed past gently, instantly interrupting his unfinished "threat".
Gu Zhou's voice stopped abruptly.
Time seemed to freeze for a moment.
In his dark eyes, a turbulent wave of emotions suddenly surged... It was incredible shock, huge ecstasy, and uneasiness for fear of hearing it wrongly. All these complex emotions collided and churned violently in his deep eyes.
His hand hanging by his side almost instinctively grasped her slightly cold fingers tightly.
His palms were burning hot, and even trembled slightly with an uncontrollable force, revealing the huge waves stirring in his heart.
Wang Yuanling's fingertips moved slightly in his burning palm.
Then, gently but clearly, she held his hand.
Gu Zhou's jawline instantly tensed, and the veins on the sides of his neck bulged, as if he was trying hard to suppress his emotions.
It's clear that everything was planned.
But when he felt the beating in his palm.
Her emotions were scattered all over the place, and even she couldn't tell which part was real and which was fake.
True and false are always difficult to distinguish.
"Let's try it."
She raised her eyes, and the hope in them bloomed like fireworks in Gu Zhou's heart.
Gu Zhou held her hand and kissed the back of her hand almost devoutly.
look up.
His Adam's apple rolled again and again, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Since you promised me, you can't go back on your word."
Every word seemed to be squeezed out from the tip of the heart, carrying a heavy weight and a plea of anxiety and fear.
A gentle smile spread across Wang Yuanling's beautiful eyebrows, like a spring breeze blowing across the newly blossomed stamens: "Well, I won't regret it."
This promise, like a reassurance, finally allowed Gu Zhou to find a thread of "calmness" from the extreme shock and ecstasy.
He opened his lips as if he wanted to say something.
But the faint smile on her lips made my heart soften.
Wang Yuanling looked at him and teased him gently, "Gu Zhou, your hands... are shaking."
The corners of his lips couldn't stop curling up, and he admitted frankly: "Because I'm very happy."
Her watery eyes lit up with cunning. "Happy? Really? You've been in a lot of relationships, right? Shouldn't this kind of situation be familiar to you?"
Even before I investigated Gu Zhou.
I also learned a thing or two about it on the hot searches.
This person is a hot topic every other day.
And most of them are with beauties, supermodels, and female celebrities.
There are quite a few peach blossoms.
"No." Gu Zhou answered firmly without any hesitation.
There was no trace of joking between his deep brows, only a solemn sincerity. He pronounced each word clearly and distinctly: "I have never been in love."
Wang Yuanling was stunned for a moment, his pupils dilated slightly with surprise.
He stared at her deeply, emphasizing each word: "You are my first love."
Just six words.
Wang Yuanling’s heart exploded.
Her lips parted, a little bewildered: "You, but didn't you have scandals with some supermodels and actresses before? These..."
She swallowed hard, and even said it herself, feeling a little unbelievable: "Is this all fake?"
She saw her own astonished expression, clearly reflected in his dark and deep pupils, which were now filled with only her.
"Fake." Gu Zhou answered crisply and calmly, "Some of them were for business cooperation needs, and they met in public to negotiate, that's all. I have never met any of them alone in private."
His gaze was as clear as the clearest lake water, looking straight into her eyes.
Seeing her suspicious.
Gu Zhou raised his eyebrows slightly, his expression becoming even more composed, even with a hint of desperate seriousness: "Do you want to verify it?"
Wang Yuanling was in a daze: "How can I verify this?"
Gu Zhou looked directly into her eyes, his tone as calm as if he was presenting a business plan: "It's very simple. I'll invite them all to you, and you can ask them one by one."
He paused and added, "Or, I'll have someone list the contact information of all the people I've had scandals with, and you can go and ask them directly. I have nothing to hide from you."
Wang Yuanling just imagined that scene... a group of glamorous beauties standing in a row in front of her, or her holding a list and calling everyone one by one to question them... She felt it was extremely magical and embarrassing.
She couldn't help but ask, "What if...what if you had already rigged their statements? Aren't all the things I asked about them the lies you taught them to tell?"
