Her face flushed instantly, not from morning sickness, but from anger.
A dark, unattractive finger, terribly ugly, placed on her lips—it looked... well, you know.
“Meimei, I won’t allow you to talk about yourself like that. You need to know that you are the best in my heart, and it is my blessing to have met you.”
Ugh~
Is there a template for these love words?
[It's exactly the same as what you see in a children's book.]
She was even more annoyed inside, but Wang Guimei still had to put on a touched expression.
She tried, but found she couldn't muster the energy to create lively expressions with her stiff features, so she could only manage a polite smile.
"Yes, Zuo Que, I know you treat me well. Once I feel better, shall we get married?"
Her eyes shone with a light called hope, so bright that Jiang Zuoque didn't know what to say and almost awkwardly avoided Wang Guimei's gaze.
With the finger gone, Wang Guimei finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In Jiang Zuoque's eyes, it was Wang Guimei who was heartbroken. If one day, someone told Jiang Zuoque that he could fall in love with one person while simultaneously liking another...
Jiang Zuoqiu didn't believe it. He was a power-hungry man; how could he fall in love with someone?
But when he actually encountered it, Jiang Zuoque felt that this was his fate. After years of not moving, he suddenly had two.
He admitted that he liked Wang Guimei; otherwise, he wouldn't have taken her in when he learned she had nowhere to go and provided her with good food and drink.
But when Jiang Zuoque met Wang Guimei, he realized that his heart was too big.
But he is definitely not the kind of person who falls in love with two women at the same time.
"Meimei, I...I'm leaving now."
Jiang Zuoque practically ran away, not daring to look back at the heartbroken look in Wang Guimei's eyes. In fact, even a fleeting glance would have been enough for him to notice.
He felt none of the sadness and loneliness he expected. Wang Guimei was slowly wiping her hands and the places that Jiang Zuoque had touched.
"What bad luck, if only..."
Wang Guimei didn't say the rest, but Li Yiyi would fill in the blanks with her own imagination.
Alas, life is hard; some resort to using their beauty and talent.
If the pay wasn't good enough, I wouldn't do this damn job.
"Dad, what if I...?"
After realizing the current situation, Li Yiyi consciously stopped thinking about it.
The fact that he only said half of what he intended to say had already put Boss Li on high alert. What was his daughter planning to do in the future? The first part was about money; if he didn't elaborate on the second part, it definitely wasn't a good thing.
Si Minzhao didn't hear what Li Yiyi was thinking, but seeing that Li Laoda's expression was not right and his eyes were fixed on Li Yiyi, he knew what was going on.
Yi-yi must have caused trouble again. He's used to it; he's already told him to let Yi-yi be in charge, but his master and the others just won't let him.
He was dejected, heartbroken, and deeply wounded.
After rushing out the door, Jiang Zuoque glanced back into the house. Not seeing Wang Guimei, he felt a slight sense of relief.
He then walked into the kitchen with a guilty look on his face. The only good thing was that the kitchen was in a small hut next to his residence.
He didn't need to worry about Wang Guimei discovering him; the stimulating environment gave Jiang Zuoque the illusion that he had everything under control.
Upon entering the kitchen, Wang Guimei was already waiting by the stove.
"Zuo Que, how about Mei Mei? Maybe... maybe we should break up!"
After saying this sorrowfully, Wang Guimei lowered her head melancholically, her main theme being, "I know it's wrong, but I still can't bear to part with you."
Whether it's true or not, we'll see later, but it's clear that Jiang Zuoque is buying it.
He stepped forward, took Wang Guimei's hands, and said tenderly,
"Meimei, I will never leave you. I love you."
His tone was sincere and his emotions were rich; if Wang Guimei didn't know clearly what kind of person Jiang Zuoque was, she might have believed him.
Unfortunately, Jiang Zuoque was destined to be disappointed. The hearts of the two sisters were only ever moved by their employers. The employers would give money, but would Jiang Zuoque give money?
Oh, it seems they did give it to them, but so what? With an employer, they can have millions of dollars, which is more than Jiang Zuoque's money alone, and not enough to tempt them.
Secondly, Wang Guimei subtly glanced at Jiang Zuoque, then discreetly looked away.
They like handsome men, and it's acceptable if they find them pleasing to the eye. But Jiang Zuoque looked him up and down, inside and out, and there wasn't a single thing about him that matched the sisters' aesthetic standards.
They have their own internal hierarchy regarding how to complete the employer's tasks.
Withdrew her hand from Jiang Zuoque's, Wang Guimei gazed melancholically into the distance. Once her eyes felt a little better, she looked at Jiang Zuoque.
"Zuo Que, but you know this relationship is wrong. Mei Mei is my sister, and she's not well. I can't hurt her. Let's break it off!"
He kept saying, "Let's break it off," and Jiang Zuoque's head was about to explode.
As a successful person, he finally met someone he liked, and he didn't want to let any of them slip by.
Meimei didn't want to, and neither did Meimei.
"Meimei, don't talk about this anymore. I'll tell Meimei about it."
Jiang Zuoque lowered his head guiltily; he didn't even believe what he himself was saying.
"Okay, I believe you. I only have one request, Zuo Que, and that is not to make Mei Mei sad."
Anyone can lie; Jiang Zuoque can, and so can Wang Guimei. Their task is simple: just keep Jiang Zuoque occupied.
No matter how complicated the relationship, it's the most agonizing of all.
Caught between advancing and retreating, Jiang Zuoque couldn't bear to choose between the two, so he could only resort to deception, while also finding himself deeply entangled in this emotional vortex in his spare time.
Keeping Jiang Zuoque occupied was an incredibly easy task, even easier than anything they'd done before, mainly because it was risk-free.
