Chapter 1144: Breakthrough
Think about it from Gong Qing's perspective? He had felt the same way, thinking about how Gu Wanqiu had been with Gong Qing for the past five years since she lost her memory, and how he had been Gong Qing's substitute back then.
Gong Qing is only just scratching the surface now, and it is nothing compared to what he experienced in those years.
In Li Jinxing's opinion, Gong Qing was taking advantage of the situation. The past five years between him and Gu Wanqiu were just stolen by him. Now he was using a project worth tens of billions to exchange for Gu Wanqiu. No matter from which point of view, he was taking advantage.
Li Jinxing agreed to her: "Okay, I'll give him some time to buffer, but you must remember to protect yourself and don't put yourself in danger. If anything happens, remember to call me and I will come and pick you up immediately."
"I understand. Don't worry about me. Gong Qing has always been good to me and would never hurt me." Gu Wanqiu's tone had softened unconsciously, no longer as stiff as it was at the beginning.
After finishing the call with Li Jinxing, Gu Wanqiu returned to the bedroom with her phone. It was already completely dark outside.
Gu Wanqiu stood at the door, holding the door handle. After hesitating for a moment, she opened the door and walked out.
It's already nine o'clock in the evening, Gong Qing should not have gone to bed yet.
Just as she thought, Gong Qing was still in the living room.
The house with two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and two bathrooms was not big enough for Gong Qing, and it didn't even have a basic study room.
He had wanted many times to take Gu Wanqiu to live somewhere else, or at least to move to a bigger house.
But Gu Wanqiu didn't want to. She said the house was too big and she was afraid to live there alone. It was fine like this and she would get used to it after living there for a long time.
This house was chosen by Gu Wanqiu herself. She liked it, so Gong Qing resisted the urge to change it. He lived there for so long.
Over the years, just as Gu Wanqiu said, I got used to living here and didn't want to move anymore.
Even if you didn’t like a house very much before, you will get used to it and don’t want to leave after living in it for a long time. But why is it that people who have been together for so many years and have gotten used to it still end up breaking up?
Many things cannot be explained in a few words.
Gong Qing's bedroom is where he uses his computer when he comes home to work, but today, he took out his computer and put it in the living room to read.
When Gu Wanqiu came out, she happened to see him sitting in front of the computer, his back motionless, staring at the computer as if in a daze.
She came out and was almost in front of him, but he didn't notice her.
"Gong Qing." Gu Wanqiu called him softly.
Gong Qing came back to his senses and turned to look over: "Are you awake? Dinner is being kept warm in the kitchen, go eat it quickly."
"Well." Gu Wanqiu asked, "Have you eaten everything?"
"I've eaten." Gong Qing saw Gu Wanqiu pursed her lips and looked at him, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. He asked directly, "Did something happen?"
"Just now... Li Jinxing called me."
There was no surprise on Gong Qing's face. When Gu Wanqiu handed him the documents, he knew that Li Jinxing would call and ask.
Gong Qing was surprised when he got the document. First, he didn't expect Gu Wanqiu to be so smooth, but when he learned that it was Li Jinxing who took the initiative to hand these to Gu Wanqiu, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
Rather than Li Jinxing's willingness, he would rather let Gu Wanqiu steal it slowly, so that Li Jinxing can taste the taste of "betrayal".
Moreover, since it was stolen, keeping Li Jinxing in the dark would make things easier in the future.
Now Li Jinxing is doing this because
Gu Wanqiu's pregnancy directly broke the window paper and accelerated many plans.
"Did he call you to ask if you had broken up with me?"
Gu Wanqiu's eyes widened: "How did you guess that?"
"It's not a guess." Gong Qing paused, "How did you tell him?"
Gu Wanqiu: "I followed the plan we had set up before. After obtaining the information about J City, I lied to Li Jinxing and said that we had broken up. This would further strengthen our relationship, make him trust me more, and make him want to be inseparable from me. So I told him that we had broken up, but he asked me if I had mentioned the past to me. I answered no... I think he still thinks that I have no memory and don't know what happened in the past."
Gu Wanqiu frowned. The order of some plans had been disrupted, and many plans had to be carried out ahead of schedule.
Gu Wanqiu is used to making plans in advance and following them step by step. Once the order of the plans is disrupted, she will be at a loss and a little panicked. She is always worried that she will be exposed and get herself into trouble, and she is afraid that she will not be able to get out of it.
"Gong Qing, I'm a little scared." Gu Wanqiu clenched her cold hands.
Gong Qing sat there, looking up at her face with a layer of frost on his face.
"What are you afraid of?"
"I'm afraid Li Jinxing knows our plan. Do you think Li Jinxing suspects me? He took the initiative to give me the documents from J City. Is he testing me? Has he discovered that you know about what happened between him and me?"
Compared to Gu Wanqiu's nervousness, Gong Qing seemed too calm, "Our plan was to get these things. Since he offered them to you, no matter whether it was a trial or not,
"Detective, as long as you get it, it's fine. Besides, these documents are real. Li Jinxing loves you so much, even if..."
