Chapter 1069 Death is more painful than plastic surgery
Gu Wanqiu knelt on the ground, "Mr. Li, I have offended you. If you have any grievances, come to me. I can't kill you, but you can kill me. Even if you want to cut me into pieces, I only ask one thing of you. Don't implicate innocent people. This is a matter between you and me. Don't bring irrelevant people into this..."
After she finished speaking, she closed her eyes, like a death row prisoner waiting for the judge's final judgment.
Li Jinxing's throat choked as he looked at the woman in front of him. She actually knelt on the ground and begged him. For another man, the former Gu Wanqiu would never do such a stupid thing that violated her dignity.
If he hadn't investigated her thoroughly and verified her DNA to confirm that she was the child's mother, Li Jinxing would really have doubted whether this was Gu Wanqiu, the same self-righteous Miss Gu.
"Gu Wanqiu, stand up!" Li Jinxing suppressed his anger. He would rather she came with a knife to kill him than kneel on the ground and beg him to kill her for Gong Qing. The former at least had some resemblance to the past.
"I never meant for you to die."
"But you want me to live a life worse than death, don't you?"
She came here not knowing what would happen, and she didn't know how to face Li Jinxing in the next hundred days, let alone how to face Gong Qing. Deceiving Gong Qing was like a murderous intent. The only thing she wanted now was for Gong Qing to be well. She would do her best to keep Gong Qing from getting hurt and get what he wanted. For this, she could pay a great price, even her life. Her life was saved by Gong Qing, and now she could return it to him.
If possible, she would rather die than betray the relationship between her and Gong Qing.
In Gu Wan
In Qiu's opinion, her appearance here today and her choice to spend the hundred days with Li Jinxing were already considered as betrayal to Gong Qing.
Li Jinxing looked down at Gu Wanqiu who was kneeling on the ground, and suddenly asked: "Gu Wanqiu, did it hurt during the plastic surgery?"
Gu Wanqiu shuddered and touched her shoulder. Of course it hurt, not just physically, but her heart was also in severe pain. Her face was wrapped in gauze, and she couldn't look at it or touch it even if she wanted to. She lived in fear of the unknown every day.
"Then let me tell you, death is ten thousand times more painful than plastic surgery, so isn't it better to live a good life? I don't want your life, just listen to me, and I will naturally not do anything to Gong Qing. Don't misinterpret my meaning. After all... I'm not as bad as you think." Li Jinxing said sarcastically.
"I haven't done anything to you, yet you look like you're dying. To put it bluntly, if something really happened, I have the power to hold your life in my hands and prevent you from dying. Now you're kneeling in front of me like this, what do you think Gong Qing would do if he saw you? Would he really appreciate your efforts? He might even find it disgusting."
Gu Wanqiu felt like she was hit by a hammer, her ears were buzzing, and she was worried about making mistakes. Li Jinxing understood the situation better than she did.
However, it was too late to regret now. Now that she had taken this step, there was no way to turn back.
Li Jinxing pinched her chin and said frivolously: "Get up, I have no intention of doing anything extra to you for the time being. Since you are here to keep the appointment, we agreed on a hundred days, so one day less, one minute less, one second less will not do. If you break the agreement, I have the ability to make you and Gong Qing fall into an irretrievable situation. Do you have the courage to do that?"
Just try it.”
She didn't have the courage, Gu Wanqiu shook her head, and she didn't even dare to look at the knife that fell on the ground.
In fact, she didn't dare to kill anyone, and she only carried a knife to protect herself.
Gu Wanqiu stood up timidly. This look reminded Li Jinxing of the time when Gu Wanqiu pretended to be stupid. He looked at Gu Wanqiu carefully. After ten years, he was no longer the Li Jinxing who allowed himself to be fooled. He could easily tell whether the other party was pretending or not.
Being stared at by Li Jinxing's sharp eyes, Gu Wanqiu didn't dare to move at all.
She inexplicably had the illusion that Li Jinxing could see through everything, as if he could see into her heart.
Li Jinxing squatted down, picked up the knife on the ground and handed it back to Gu Wanqiu: "Put away the things you brought."
Gu Wanqiu held the knife and dared not say anything.
Li Jinxing turned around and sat on the sofa. He raised his chin and motioned for Gu Wanqiu to sit over here: "Sit down."
Gu Wanqiu didn't dare to disobey. She sat on the sofa like a puppet. She sat at the edge of the sofa, with her butt just touching the edge, as if she was ready to run at any time.
He had never thought that Gu Wanqiu would be so afraid of him. Before she lost her memory, Gu Wanqiu was still afraid of him, but not so obviously.
"The deadline is one hundred days, starting from the moment you enter the Li family. I won't tell Gong Qing, but the prerequisite is that you can quickly get him to come out on his own initiative. I will take care of the rest."
"He really won't know?"
"Won't."
Gu Wanqiu still didn't quite believe Li Jinxing: "Are you really not going to target him anymore?"
"As long as you listen to my instructions, I will naturally not target him anymore."
Gu Wanqiu fell into deep thought. She could only temporarily
Believe in Li Jinxing, take a gamble, and at least help Gong Qing overcome the difficulties at work this time.
"How are you going to arrange it?" Gu Wanqiu thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out what kind of "supernatural power" Li Jinxing had that he could arrange for her to take care of his two children without anyone noticing, and without letting Gong Qing know.
She lives with Gong Qing, and Gong Qing will definitely know that she is going out to work. How can she hide this from him?
Moreover, she had a hunch that if Gong Qing knew that she wanted to work and take care of Li Jinxing's children, Gong Qing would definitely not agree.
"I said I can arrange it, and I'll tell you how to do it when the time comes. Just do as I say."
Gu Wanqiu nodded dryly, not daring to ask more questions.
They just sat there without saying anything, the atmosphere was tense and awkward. Gu Wanqiu sat very stiffly, and soon she felt her waist and legs ache and numbness. She wanted to leave this place, but she didn't dare to act rashly.
I could only lower my head and look at my fingertips, feeling very uncomfortable.
Li Jinxing asked, "Have you had breakfast?"
She found that during their two meetings, Li Jinxing seemed to be very concerned about whether she had eaten.
Gu Wanqiu nodded: "I ate it." If she said she didn't eat it, she intuitively felt that Li Jinxing would definitely order a lot of breakfast and watch her finish it.
She was not good at lying, so she moved her fingers and dared not look people in the eye. She often told lies, but her actions betrayed him. The best scene Gu Wanqiu had ever played was when she pretended to be stupid and deceived him. If you think about it carefully, with such poor acting skills, how could he have been fooled?
Li Jinxing called the front desk and asked them to send over some breakfast. Within a few minutes, the waiter came up with a food cart.
One person orders
She ordered more than a dozen refreshments. It was rare to see such authentic Chinese refreshments in a foreign country. Gu Wanqiu glanced casually and didn't know if it was an illusion. She found that almost all the ones brought by the waiter were her favorites. Her stomach, which was not hungry at first, suddenly felt restless.
Li Jinxing asked someone to bring the tea and snacks to him, and then he picked up the basket of shrimp dumplings and handed it to Gu Wanqiu.
"eat."
"I've eaten."
"You have to eat it even if you've already eaten. This is given to you by me. Be obedient." His tone was ruthless and overbearing, as if if Gu Wanqiu dared to say she didn't want to eat, he would rush up and pinch her chin and force-feed her, making it impossible for her to refuse.
Gu Wanqiu took the shrimp dumplings and then took the chopsticks handed to her by the waiter.
The shrimp dumplings were not big, and Gu Wanqiu finished one in two bites. There were five shrimp dumplings in a basket, and Gu Wanqiu ate two. When she was about to eat the third one, Li Jinxing took the shrimp dumplings from her hand and handed her a bowl, which turned into seafood porridge. She had just focused on the shrimp dumplings, but now she saw three plates on the small table in front of her, each plate contained a small snack. These were dishes specially arranged for her by Li Jinxing so that she could have a little of each.
Gu Wanqiu was not moved at all, she was even frightened in her heart, but when she was afraid and hated someone, no matter what he did, she would think he had bad intentions, which was a typical persecution complex.
Gu Wanqiu ate most of the meal in silence, and her stomach was completely full. After eating, the color on her face improved a little.
"Are you full?"
Gu Wanqiu nodded, and when she saw Li Jinxing's playful expression, she suddenly felt a sense of crisis in her heart.
"Didn't you say you had breakfast?
Can you still eat so much?" He saw through her from the beginning, but just didn't say it out loud, "Gu Wanqiu, don't lie to me next time, even if it's just a small thing like this."
