Chapter 1075: Did I Know Li Jin Before?
Although the troublesome matter was resolved, Gong Qing was not as happy as he had imagined.
Instead, he felt a sense of frustration as if he was trapped in the fog and being crushed by a stone. He knew very well that he had been fooled. This feeling of being played around with reminded him of more than ten years ago when Li Jinxing suddenly came to Country M and used despicable means to take Gu Wanqiu away.
Gong Qing immediately suspected Li Jinxing of being responsible for this incident. The person who could do such a thing must have such despicable means, and Gong Qing could only think of Li Jinxing.
After a little investigation, he found out that Li Jinxing was also in Country M. His original suspicion was now confirmed. It was normal for Li Jinxing to target him. After all, the two of them disliked each other. If he was a little stronger than Li Jinxing, he would have wanted to suppress him to death and make him unable to stand up forever.
Li Jinxing is so against people because, firstly, he dislikes them, and secondly, he is afraid that one day the other person will be in a higher position than him and suppress him.
But why did Li Jinxing let go at the critical moment?
Gong Qing really couldn't figure it out, but what he was more worried about now was that Gu Wanqiu would appear under Li Jinxing's nose and be recognized by him.
Gong Qing wanted to take Gu Wanqiu back to China as soon as possible. It would be best if she stayed in Chengdu and lived there quietly for the rest of her life. It would be best if she stayed at home and lived as a loner. How many people want to lie at home with endless money to spend and never have to worry about food, clothing or other expenses? But why doesn't Gu Wanqiu like it?
Gong Qing wanted to bring Gu Wanqiu back as soon as possible, but he didn't know that his idea happened to fit Li Jinxing's mind.
It was a nice day, but at four in the afternoon it started to rain. The sound of the rain was so loud, and it hit the windows with the wind.
Once it rains, the temperature will drop by several degrees. After the rain, the weather will drop sharply and become colder and colder.
Gu Wanqiu hates winter because it makes her feel pain.
It's not even winter yet, but her injured bones have already started to hurt, especially her feet. She has a missing piece of her big toe. She doesn't feel anything when she wears shoes on a normal day, as long as it's not exposed and seen by others. Therefore, the shoes that Gu Wanqiu wears most often throughout the year are sneakers. She rarely wears shoes, and she dares not even think about wearing sandals.
When the weather gets cold, my feet hurt a lot. The pain seems to come from the gap in the big toe and extend along the blood vessels in the skin to the entire leg.
The weather in Chengdu was not suitable for her health. It was damp and cold. In winter, she felt cold inside and out, and her bones ached more severely, to the point where she had to use a wheelchair.
She has always been able to endure. Perhaps it was because of something she had experienced in the past that made her very strong in enduring pain.
Gong Qing felt sorry for her, so he installed floor heating at home, and watched her soak her feet every day and wear warm pants to prevent her legs from being frozen to death.
Gu Wanqiu leaned on the window and looked at the hazy path outside. All the windows in the room were closed and it was a bit stuffy. Gu Wanqiu was not afraid of being stuffy but was afraid of being cold, so she never opened the window.
There was no floor heating in the apartment, only air conditioning. Gu Wanqiu turned on the air conditioner and raised the temperature, making the whole room warm.
She looked at the sky outside and wondered if it would snow this year. She hated the cold of winter, but liked the snow in winter. She felt that the place where she lived before she lost her memory must be a place where it snowed in winter.
The warm air conditioner is blowing, making people feel
Feeling sleepy, Gu Wanqiu still leaned on the windowsill, trying hard to resist sleepiness. At five o'clock, a familiar figure appeared.
Gong Qing walked on the path with an umbrella in a hurry. Before he reached the door, Gu Wanqiu had already opened it.
Gong Qing was surprised when he saw the open door, but after seeing Gu Wanqiu inside, he calmed down and said, "I thought you forgot to close the door."
"No, the door was opened specially for you. I just saw you at the window."
Gong Qing opened the umbrella in his hand, shook off the rain on the umbrella, and put it on the ground to dry it.
After coming in, Gong Qing felt the change in temperature. When he was outside, it felt like autumn, but after coming back, the temperature was like summer. Gu Wanqiu turned the air conditioner to 30 degrees, which was a bit hot.
Gong Qing knew that Gu Wanqiu was afraid of the cold, so it would be better to turn on the air conditioner. He took off his coat and hung it on the hanger at the door.
"You should go out less recently."
"Why?" Gu Wanqiu asked casually.
Gong Qing couldn't tell the truth, "It's not peaceful out there, I'm afraid you'll be in danger."
Gu Wanqiu nodded seriously, "I understand. I won't go out." Even if Gong Qing hadn't reminded her, she wouldn't have planned to go out. First, it was too cold, and second, she was afraid of meeting Li Jinxing.
Thinking of Li Jinxing, Gu Wanqiu felt a little tempted.
"Gong Qing, do you know Li Jin?"
Gong Qing obviously knew Li Jinxing. When he heard his name, his expression changed immediately and he looked a little nervous.
"Why did you mention his name out of the blue? Have you seen him?"
"No, I just took a quick look at it on the financial channel. I was a little curious."
Just curious? Gong Qing didn't dare to ask more.
The main reason is that I’m afraid Gu Wanqiu will remember something.
"I know him, but I hate this person. I don't want to hear anything about him, let alone have any contact with him." Gong Qing did not hide the disgust on his face. It was the first time that Gu Wanqiu saw him express his dislike so directly.
From his tone and expression, Gu Wanqiu knew that even mentioning the name "Li Jinxing" in front of Gong Qing would make him unhappy. If he knew what had happened between her and Li Jinxing...
Gu Wanqiu didn't dare to think too much about it.
Gu Wanqiu suppressed her emotions, but her face still turned pale.
Gong Qing asked casually, with concern on his face: "Why is your face so pale?"
"Maybe my body hasn't fully recovered yet." Gu Wanqiu touched her face stiffly. When Gong Qing approached her and raised his hand to touch her face, Gu Wanqiu dodged without a trace and turned around to walk inside.
The entrance was quite narrow, so Gu Wanqiu walked in front and Gong Qing walked behind. Gong Qing didn't walk to his side until they entered the living room.
Gu Wanqiu suddenly mentioned "Li Jinxing", which made Gong Qing feel like he was facing a great enemy and he became alert instantly. He had been avoiding this name in front of Gu Wanqiu for so many years, but he didn't expect that Gu Wanqiu would mention him as soon as it came out.
Sure enough, I still don’t want to let her out, or rather, I shouldn’t let her out.
Gong Qing had an extreme selfish desire in his heart. He wanted to hide Gu Wanqiu in a dark corner, or let her turn back into her previous broken appearance, as if only in this way, Gu Wanqiu would not be targeted by others.
Gong Qing clenched his hands, his knuckles turning white and his nails digging into the flesh of his palms, but he felt nothing.
No.
Gu Wanqiu, who was walking in front, had no idea what Gong Qing was thinking. Her heart was still in a mess and she couldn't figure it out at all.
A transparent barrier had unknowingly appeared between Gong Qing and Gu Wanqiu, but they hadn't noticed it yet.
There are too many lies between them. Lies will separate the two of them and create a gap between them unknowingly. The transparent distance seems very close, but it is impossible to get close.
Both of them were secretly testing each other. Suspicion and suspicion were the most feared existence and obstacle in love.
Gu Wanqiu calmed herself down and continued to probe: "Did I...know Li Jinxing before?"
"I don't know him." Without thinking or hesitation, Gong Qing answered as soon as Gu Wanqiu finished speaking, as if he was waiting for her question.
Gong Qing's hasty attitude made Gu Wanqiu look at him a few more times, and she felt a little weird in her heart.
Gong Qing also knew that his mood had just changed too quickly, so he softened his expression. "You don't know him. You and he are completely different people. There's no need to get to know each other. From what I know, he has many bad habits and is good at using despicable means. If you happen to run into him on the street, remember to stay away from him."
Gong Qing was right. Li Jinxing did have many bad habits. He was extreme and violent, with a twisted personality. He was not a kind person.
She believed what Gong Qing said. Indeed, no matter from which perspective, she and Li Jinxing were completely unrelated. She should not have any relationship with Li Jinxing. She should stay as far away from him as possible when she met him. But that night, she had no choice but to avoid him. Now she was forced by Li Jinxing and could not escape.
Gu Wanqiu originally thought that Li Jinxing was entangled with
She couldn't let go of him, and all the coincidences between them were how Li Jinxing knew her before she lost her memory.
