In her past life, Lin Min was forced by her adoptive parents to marry in her sister’s place. Unwilling to wed a disabled man, she turned to her childhood sweetheart for help to escape the wedding—o...
Lin Min had a strange look on her face, and glanced at Tang Jingyue who was staring at Gao Zheng's back with her eyes wide open, then quickly looked away and lowered her head to pick up the herb ashes.
When she had finished packing, she said to Gao Zheng calmly, "Captain Gao, you can get up now."
She had no intention of moxibustioning the navel acupoint at all.
Gao Zheng's condition has improved significantly and is currently in the consolidation stage, so there is no need for such detailed moxibustion.
She was indeed embarrassed.
Lin Min's voice brought Tang Jingyue back to her senses.
Her eyes flickered slightly, she withdrew her gaze, tidied the short hair beside her ears, and stood up hurriedly and awkwardly.
Gao Zheng turned over and sat up. "Is the fumigation over?" He saw that Lin Min had taken off the gloves on his hands.
Lin Min nodded, "Well, today I'll just do the moxibustion on my waist, and then acupuncture later."
She used to live in Gao's house, and after finishing the treatment, she would stay in the guest room, and when she thought it was about time, she would come to Gao Zheng's room to continue the acupuncture.
Now that she had moved, the hour of waiting seemed a long time.
It’s not worth it to leave and come back.
"Miss Tang, please sit with Captain Gao for a while. I'm going to the bathroom downstairs to wash my hands."
Lin Min learned of Tang Jingyue's thoughts, and considerately created an opportunity for them to be alone together.
Although she felt in her heart that the possibility of these two people being together was not small.
But since the girl has that intention, she should always try her best.
No one tried to persuade her to give up her rights. After she had tried her best, she might have given them up automatically.
This is what we call not turning back until you hit the wall.
We are all adults, Tang Jingyue should know what she is doing.
Tang Jingyue opened her mouth, wanting to say that she wanted to be a bastard too.
But when the words came to my lips, I just couldn't say them.
It was so hard to be alone with Gao Zheng. It was such a good opportunity that she was reluctant to leave.
Even though I was nervous, anxious, my heart was beating fast, and I didn't even dare to look up at him...
But she just didn't want to leave.
After Lin Min left, Tang Jingyue stood straight beside the desk like a primary school student, biting her lip and stealing glances at the man beside the bed.
It seems as if he wants to say something but stops himself, and also as if he is shy and timid.
Even a straight man like Gao Zheng could sense something was wrong.
The girl was not rude, and Gao Zheng felt embarrassed to chase her away.
No, Gao Zheng had nothing to be ashamed of. Over the years, many women wanted to get close to him. His face darkened, and a terrifying aura emanated from his body.
Many were scared away.
He could easily kick this ignorant little girl out of the house.
But recently, Gao Zheng has changed and become more down-to-earth.
He can't do that kind of thing anymore.
So, he looked at her leisurely with narrowed eyes, wanting to know why this girl from the Tang family was standing there.
Tang Jingyue felt that Dr. Lin had given her the opportunity, and she would be letting her eight years of secret love for him down if she didn't seize it.
She clenched her fists and encouraged herself secretly. Finally, she mustered up the courage, looked at him, and said, "Uncle Gao...
I really don't want to use this tongue-twisting name.
"Is your work very hard?" Tang Jingyue tried to calm herself down, calm down, and calm down again!
"Um?"
Gao Zheng raised his eyes and looked at her doubtfully.
"I heard that you were too busy with work and had no time to do your own things, and your personal issues were also delayed." Let's talk about personal issues first.
"I heard?" Gao Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly, "Where did you hear it from?"
She stammered, "I...I just heard from the elders that you should take care of yourself."
Tang Jingyue had never hated her stupid mouth so much.
"Thank you, I will." Gao Zheng cooperated and accepted his niece's concern.
Gao Zheng showed no sign of getting angry, so Tang Jingyue became a little bolder and continued to inquire, "Then what about you...your personal problem, have you put it on the agenda?"
Gao Zheng, "..."
Every time the elders approached him by asking personal questions, they just wanted to introduce him to someone.
Now even the younger generation has to worry about his personal problems?
If it were in the past, Gao Zheng would have been furious and would have said, "Don't bother with it," and ordered them to leave.
But the little girl in front of me is a junior.
He has to behave like an elder and not get angry easily.
He didn't know why, but he said in a playful tone, "Niece, do you have any suitable candidates to introduce to me?"
Then, he looked at her with a gloomy face.
introduce……
Tang Jingyue's head was buzzing, she was nervous and scared, she almost asked, "Can I recommend myself?"
But she would never utter such outrageous words even if she was beaten to death.
Tang Jingyue met Gao Zheng's deep eyes and was startled. "I just care about you, there is no other meaning."
"Thank you for your concern, niece. I will notify everyone once my personal problems are resolved." Gao Zheng's tone became a little colder.
Tang Jingyue's heart sank and she lowered her head even more.
Gao Zheng had no intention of driving anyone away. His face, as hard as an axe, showed no unnecessary emotions. His tall body sat on the edge of the bed, his eyes as deep as pools, leisurely looking at the person standing there.
The girl was feeling uneasy.
That look seemed to be exploring her purpose of standing there at this moment.
Tang Jingyue had never been so tormented and nervous as she was at this moment.
She could find an excuse to leave.
But she... couldn't bear to leave.
I would rather suffer.
She was afraid that if she left at this moment, would she ever have the chance to see him so closely again in the future?
In the room, you could hear a pin drop.
Silence is scary.
In the end, Tang Jingyue couldn't resist the oppressive feeling emanating from Gao Zheng and the awkward silence in the room. She bit her lip and mustered up the courage to look at Gao Zheng, "Uncle Gao..."
, I'll get off first."
"good."
Tang Jingyue nodded at him, then fled out of Gao Zheng's room.
Gao Zheng looked at the figure fleeing at the door, retracted his gaze, stood up and went into the bathroom.
The girl from the Tang family also wants to stuff a woman into his arms?
…
When Tang Jingyue ran downstairs, Lin Min and the elder of the Gao family were sitting together.
Mr. Gao greeted her warmly, "Jingyue, come and sit down. It's almost time for dinner. This is your first time here. You and Xiaolin must stay for dinner today."
"Uncle Gao, that's not necessary. I will return home after I finish treating Captain Gao." Lin Min quickly refused.
"Girl, you are always so polite. During the time you lived at home, you never had a meal with us. Today Jingyue happened to come over. You all should stay and have a good time.
Noise. "
Lin Min didn't know how to refuse, and Tang Jingyue had no intention of refusing at all.
Everyone sat and chatted for a while, and when the time was almost up, Lin Min gave Gao Zhengqun acupuncture.
This time, Tang Jingyue didn't dare to follow him no matter what.
Old Mrs. Gao pulled Tang Jingyue aside to chat, and the two of them had a very pleasant chat. She insisted that they stay for dinner.
When Lin Min finished her treatment, Gao's family had already served the meal. Lin Min couldn't refuse, so she had to stay at Gao's house with Tang Jingyue for dinner.
With Gao Zheng around, Tang Jingyue and Lin Min didn't dare to act rashly and just lowered their heads to eat.
After dinner, the two said goodbye to the Gao family.
Tang Jingyue looked at the man who specially sent them to the door, and a glimmer of hope rose in her heart.
Uncle Gao is not as sinister and inhuman as the rumors say.
