Chapter 9 Heart-to-heart Moment

Xu Wenbin was very understanding and accepted Gu Yunsu's reasons.

Gu Yunsu also felt that she had done her best. In order to prove her innocence, she even took photos of the messy kitchen and her torn apron and sent them over.

Gu Yunsu is not the kind of beauty who would use her beauty to commit crimes. She may not accept someone's love, but the older she gets, the more she understands the value of sincerity. She has hurt others and has been hurt by others, and then realized that (although it is disgusting to say it,) every sincere heart should be treated gently.

It's a pity that she's not very popular in the love field.

Xu Wenbin laughed out loud on WeChat, and the two chatted casually. The atmosphere was relaxed and less awkward than expected.

Gu Yunsu didn't say anything, but she felt a little grateful for this. Life had been too harsh on her recently, so even a little tenderness and consideration from others could make her burst into tears of gratitude. It was really humble.

When Li Jianxiong came back and heard that his wife was sick, he immediately went crazy. He was at a loss as to what to do to send Wu Limei to the hospital and almost called for an ambulance. In the end, he was stopped by Gu Yunsu and Wu Limei, who was gasping for breath from the fever.

After such a torment, Wu Limei felt even more exhausted and leaned on the bed, feeling dizzy.

Li Jianxiong's eyes turned red and he held his wife's hand to apologize.

The audience was not able to enjoy the live broadcast of this loving couple.

Gu Yunsu tactfully retreated to the door and closed the bedroom door.

She was in a mixed mood.

A little relief, a little ease, a little helplessness, and a little...bitterness and envy?

When this sour lemon-like emotion was finally noticed, Gu Yunsu raised his eyebrows and was shocked by himself.

Why is she jealous of Wu Limei?

Or is it Li Jianxiong whom she is jealous of?

It is said that it is difficult to discern human hearts.

She thought that it was probably because the two of them were too much in love, and that this kind of love had no time as a foundation, and was extremely incomprehensible and inexplicable to other people, so that it seemed as if there was an invisible barrier between the world and them, and when they were on one side, no one else could get in.

So rather than being jealous of a certain person, it would be more accurate to say that I am jealous of this kind of feeling, this kind of close relationship.

After all, from birth to now, she has never had such a close relationship with anyone, and even at this age, she has begun to think that this is something she will never have in her life.

Li Jianxiong is a good person. After observing him for so long, Gu Yunsu can basically confirm it.

When they got married, he said that it was his responsibility to provide his family with a stable and happy home. When he said this, he was looking at Wu Limei, but his eyes also swept over Gu Yunsu and Li Yan.

And after marriage, he indeed tried hard to do so. Most of the money he earned hard was spent on this family. He paid much more attention to the mother and daughter than to Li Yan. As a grown man, he carefully controlled the tone of every word, for fear of accidentally hurting anyone's feelings.

According to worldly standards, he is a bit "mean", but Gu Yunsu doesn't think so. She thinks kind people appear mean because they can't bear to see others get hurt.

With Li Jianxiong taking care of his mother, Gu Yunsu felt relieved. He ate something casually and then hid in the attic.

On days like this, she couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions.

The computer screen went from bright to dark. She curled up her legs, unconsciously entered the password, and stared at the lit screen again.

It was at this time that Li Jianxiong knocked on her door.

Gu Yunsu was startled.

Because this was the first time Li Jianxiong returned to her bedroom since they all moved in together.

Although she knew that the other party was a decent, polite and nice guy who was more afraid of embarrassment than herself, Gu Yunsu still felt a little guilty reflexively when faced with this scene of a "strange middle-aged man" appearing at the door of her bedroom.

She stood up, concealing her vigilance, and greeted him, "Uncle Li."

Countless thoughts have gone through her mind, wondering what he wanted to talk about, how she should answer, how she should respond if he really did something inappropriate, and whether she should tell Wu Limei afterwards - let's just say she was having paranoid delusions, but she couldn't just read social news for nothing!

As a result, Li Jianxiong was also very nervous, as if he had been forced into a social phobia patient. He leaned against the door frame in a coy manner and asked, "What are you busy with?"

"No." Gu Yunsu closed the computer and looked at Li Jianxiong, "Uncle Li, what can I do for you?"

Li Jianxiong fell silent.

He hesitated, thought, and hesitated. His eyes moved around the floor, and finally focused on the swivel chair in front of the desk: "Can I sit down?"

Can you still say no?

Gu Yunsu complained inwardly and nodded.

In fact, you can probably guess what the other person is going to say.

It's just about the child. For example, they are not young anymore, so they are lucky to have such a child. For another example, they are not very old either, so raising the child till adulthood is not a problem at all...

Gu Yunsu was already exhausted by this matter at this time. Although she didn't say it explicitly, she was filled with a state of "destroy it quickly". She didn't want to talk about this problem at all. She just wanted to get rid of the people so that she could have some peace and quiet.

As a result, Li Jianxiong was heard saying, "We will listen to you and don't want this child anymore."

Gu Yunsu: ???

What is going on here?

Uncle, does Wu Limei know that you are so willful?

Gu Yunsu couldn't hide his shock.

Li Jianxiong observed the expression and continued, "I have thought about it. What you said before is indeed very reasonable. You said it for our consideration."

Gu Yunsu felt ashamed to accept it.

Li Jianxiong: "Meimei is so old, and to be honest, I feel bad for her to have another child."

"Then you don't feel bad if she has an abortion?" Gu Yunsu didn't want to get upset, but reflexively blocked the other party from the opposite direction.

As a result, Li Jianxiong felt embarrassed because of choking, and lowered his head and pursed his lips.

Then he couldn't help but say, "Now it's not like... there's nothing we can do."

So take protective measures, brother!

Gu Yunsu had a headache and felt like an old mother who had a headache over educating her children about sexual knowledge. She felt embarrassed and sad.

How do I say this?

For the first time, she understood Wu Limei, who had hesitantly explained condoms to her.

Li Jianxiong added: "I also know that you are not satisfied with me and hate me. You are already so old, and you must feel uncomfortable to have a 'father' for nothing. Moreover, you have your own father, and I will never be able to compare with this level of relationship."

Gu Yunsu thought to himself that it wasn’t the case, it really wasn’t the case.

Her relationship with Gu Kangqi is not that good, so Li Jianxiong can catch up with her with just some effort.

She recalled going to the hospital for a psychological assessment and was asked a question: "My father is a good man." There were two options: yes or no.

Gu Yunsu didn't mean it, but she pressed the mouse, hesitating for several minutes before finally pressing "yes".

She has mixed feelings about her biological father.

Li Jianxiong said: "I never expected you to treat me as a father, but from my perspective, I want to take care of you like a daughter."

Li Jianxiong was able to say cheesy things easily, and Gu Yunsu now deeply realized that it was reasonable for him to win over Wu Limei. But she was not Wu Limei after all, and she felt so embarrassed that she wanted to dig out a 300-square-meter apartment on the ground.

She stopped him and said, "Uncle Li, don't think too much. I have no opinion on you. In fact, as long as my mother is happy, I am satisfied with whoever she marries."

As soon as I said this, I realized it wasn't a very nice thing to say.

Li Jianxiong didn't care and just nodded: "I know you are a good daughter and you really care about Meimei."

Gu Yunsu felt unworthy to receive this award for the second time.

She just had too many troubles of her own and was too lazy to care about them.

But there was no need to tell the other party these things. She smiled perfunctorily and said, "So you two don't have to worry about me. Just be happy."

Huh?

She was a little confused after she finished speaking. Wait, isn't this the opposite of what she meant?

Li Jianxiong also looked at her unexpectedly, as if moved: "I am so grateful that you think so..." Before he finished speaking, there was even a sign of choking up.

It comes again, Gu Yunsu sighed in his heart. That fatal feeling of embarrassment really makes people dare not act rashly.

But now she has tasted the bitterness of the past, and it seems that Li Jianxiong is taking a step back and coming to her side.

She is not sure whether it is the other party's original intention or not, but the effect is really good. Look at the corny, sincere and warm feeling. Doesn't it force her to reciprocate and give in involuntarily?

Someone like her who is easily fooled by soft tactics is bound to lose if she meets someone like Li Jianxiong, who is good at using softness to overcome hardness.

I'm so scared.

She sighed. After fighting for so long, she was finally exhausted physically and mentally. She resigned herself to her fate and said, "If you want to have a baby, just give birth. As for what I said before...just pretend I never said it."

"But……"

"There's no but. This is a matter between the two of you. I've expressed my opinion. If you think it's right, then listen to it. If you think it's wrong, then don't listen to it. I also know that having a baby is not a sin. It would be inappropriate for me to force you to have an abortion," she said.

In fact, after talking to Wu Limei, she had almost made up her mind, and this was just the final statement.

Li Jianxiong might not know about this part of the communication between mother and daughter. When he heard her say this, he was very excited and almost about to burst into tears.

Goodbye.

Gu Yunsu: "My mother has been feeling unwell these past two days, and I need you to take care of her more."

"Of course, of course." Li Jianxiong responded hurriedly. His attention was diverted, and he was no longer as excited as if he was about to burst into tears in the next second.

Now that we have come to this, it seems there is no need to continue the conversation.

Gu Yunsu touched the phone in his hand, and Li Jianxiong stood up very tactfully, apologizing, "I'm sorry to have disturbed your rest."

Just as he walked to the door, Li Jianxiong didn't know what he remembered, he turned back, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Gu Yunsu said nothing, waiting for the other party to speak.

Li Jianxiong finally said: "I just said that I want to take care of you as my daughter, and I really mean it."

Gu Yunsu was stunned for a moment, then nodded without any emotion: "Well, thank you."

After Li Jianxiong left, Gu Yunsu leaned on the bed and was in a daze for a while. She didn't know why she remembered a dream she had before. In the dream, Gu Kangqi looked at her angrily and asked in a sarcastic tone: "How can you two be worthy of me?"

Seeing that she didn't say anything, he asked again, "Do you dislike me so much?"

"Now you're all right, are you going to leave me behind and live a good life?"

This dream was too straightforward, without even a hint of abstraction. After waking up, Gu Yun felt that it was too dull in aesthetics, so he impatiently threw it out of his mind, and even felt disgusted with himself for having such dreams.

But now thinking about it, I find it interesting again.

How did she answer?

As if in keeping with her usual style, she rolled her eyes and said, "What the hell is it to you?!"
