Chapter 1256 Li Jinxing brought his girlfriend back
I thought that Li Jinxing would come back today and it would take a long time for him to come back.
But unexpectedly, he drove back in the middle of the night, and this time he brought someone back.
Gu Wanqiu couldn't sleep at night because of the pain. Painkillers didn't help. The curtains were not closed, and the moonlight came in. She curled up in bed, her upper body twitching with pain. She didn't know how long the pain lasted. Suddenly, in a daze, she heard the sound of a car outside.
The windows were not closed, so there was no sound insulation, and she could hear the sound of the car getting closer and closer.
When you become more and more familiar with someone, you can feel him approaching with your eyes closed, distinguish his footsteps, and always see him at a glance in the crowd. And now, hearing the sound of cars outside, she knew that Li Jinxing had returned.
Gu Wanqiu, who had been in pain for a long time, was covered in cold sweats. She was beginning to faint and her consciousness was fading. But after knowing that Li Jinxing had returned, she still exerted her strength, pressed her elbows on the bed and slowly supported her body.
I heard the sound of a car door opening outside. Besides Li Jinxing, there was someone else. Was it the driver? Or the bodyguard?
Neither, it was a woman's voice.
"Wow, this place is so big and beautiful. It must be so happy to live here. I love it here."
"Since you like it, then you can stay here forever. I'll send someone to move you tomorrow."
"Jinxing, can you tell me why this place is called Qiule Manor? What's the significance? I heard something before. This is the manor you built specifically for one person."
Hearing the woman's voice, Gu Wanqiu couldn't help but recall the scene when Li Jinxing first brought her here.
Qiule Manor, Gu Wanqiu's name contains the word "Qiu". This area is a paradise specially created by Li Jinxing for her. He wanted to lock her up here and make her happy, so he gave it this name.
The two grew up together. Li Jinxing has been Gu Wanqiu's follower for so many years. He knows what he likes and always remembers the good things she said.
Gu Wanqiu said she likes a big house, like a castle, so she can feel like a princess living in it.
So when he had his first money as an adult, Li Jinxing began planning to buy a piece of land and build a big house like a castle for Gu Wanqiu in the most luxurious area, plant her favorite flowers, hang her paintings on the walls, and there would be traces of her everywhere.
These things happened a long time ago and should have been forgotten, but for some reason, they were now clearly imprinted in her mind.
She waited for Li Jinxing's answer.
Li Jinxing said, "There's no special meaning behind the name. The name Qiule Manor simply comes from the fact that it was built in autumn, and the place looks better in autumn, so we named it that. It wasn't built for anyone. I bought this land because I saw the potential for Haicheng's development."
"Is it that simple?"
"It's that simple, but if you marry me in the future, I don't mind carving your name here."
"How come you are so good at saying sweet words? They are totally different from what others say."
"Love words are for the one you like. Let's go inside. The room has been prepared for you. You will definitely like it."
Although they were so far away, the sound of their conversation was so clear to Gu Wanqiu's ears because they were standing at the head of her bed. She kept her eyes open in a daze until her eyes became dry. She blinked slowly, and tears came out of the corners of her eyes.
Isn't it said that poisoning will gradually diminish one's five senses? Why is her hearing still so good? Why can she hear these words so clearly... the words she least wants to hear.
Gu Wanqiu wanted to cry, but she couldn't. She wanted to laugh, but she didn't even have the strength to move the corners of her lips.
Her heart aches so much that she might die from the pain before the poison takes effect.
Has Li Jinxing ever said such gentle words to her?
Yes, I have.
Because she had experienced it herself, she felt so uncomfortable when he gave his tenderness to another person.
She knew how attractive it was to be gentle and only treat a good Li Jinxing, and how it made people want to get close to him, rely on him, and like him more and more.
These were all things she once owned, but she threw them away. Now she finally understands how precious they were, but she can never get them again.
It's okay, let it be... She was never destined to be with Li Jinxing in this life. How could she, a short-lived person, dare to dream of living a normal life? These precious things should naturally be left to the person he loves who can accompany him until old age.
She should be happy with this result.
Jiang Yun saw Li Jinxing staring at the window on the second floor with the curtains open, and realized that Li Jinxing's "sweetheart" lived there.
She looked at Li Jinxing with complicated eyes. She was obviously the actor, but Li Jinxing's acting skills were better than hers.
If you didn't know this, you would really think that this man had fallen in love with her.
Listening to the tone of Li Jinxing's words just now, it was very tender, but looking at his cold face, it was impossible to imagine how he could say such suggestive words with a cold face.
Saying one thing and thinking another, that's probably what it means.
A man's words are deceiving, and this saying is now fully demonstrated in Li Jinxing.
"Let's go."
Jiang Yun followed Li Jinxing in, did his duty, and went up to the second floor with him without saying a word. Suddenly, he stopped at the door of a room.
"Is this my room?" Jiang Yun asked.
"This is our room." It's next to that room.
Li Jinxing opened the door and found that the room had been cleaned and was tidy.
Jiang Yun noticed that Li Jinxing didn't say "you" but "we", which meant that they would be living together for the next few days...
She is fine, but can Li Jinxing bear it?
Jiang Yun looked at Li Jinxing. Li Jinxing was still looking at the room next to him, as if he was talking to that room.
"Go in and see if you like it. If you don't, I'll ask someone to change it."
"It's beautiful. Shall we sleep together tonight?"
"We've been dating for so many days, and it's not like we haven't slept together before. Now we're living together and sleeping together. Are you still shy?"
Jiang Yun: “…”
Jiang Yun walked in. The whole style was soft and warm colors. It was a bedroom that girls liked. It was very cozy. The room was large and there was a large sofa inside. After entering, Li Jinxing closed the door with his backhand.
He already had a cold face, and now even his tone turned colder: "You sleep on the sofa."
She knew this would happen. It was impossible for her to get any sympathy from Li Jinxing.
The sofa is very big and soft to sit on. In summer, a blanket is enough to cover yourself with it. It is neither cold nor hot and it is very comfortable to sleep on. Jiang Yun doesn't mind sleeping on the sofa.
"Mr. Li, I think you have great talent as a voice actor. If you go bankrupt one day, you might consider changing careers."
"I won't go bankrupt." Li Jinxing was very confident about this. At least while he was alive, he would not let the Li family fall.
Jiang Yun curled his lips, lay down on the sofa, and said with his back to Li Jinxing, "Mr. Li, let me remind you, when you act, as long as your tone is good, you can fool a blind man. You need to practice your facial expressions more, practice in front of the mirror. We all started like this when we were actors."
Li Jinxing didn't say anything. Jiang Yun waited for a while. She had become accustomed to Li Jinxing's coldness. However, compared with his tone outside just now, he now sounded like a heartless scumbag.
Jiang Yun looked over and saw Li Jinxing taking off his coat and sitting on the bed with his phone. She asked again, "Mr. Li, does your sweetheart live next door?"
"She's not my sweetheart."
Jiang Yun ignored his corrections, and Li Jinxing's various behaviors showed that he cared deeply about her. According to the routine, he just wanted her to pretend to be his girlfriend to stimulate her, so that she would recognize her feelings and care about him. What is this called? It's called playing hard to get, a tactic of provoking the opponent.
"We're so close, she won't hear us talking like this, right?"
"Speak softly. She won't hear you because the bedroom has soundproof walls." Li Jinxing put down his phone and reminded her with a cold face, "Do more, talk less, and don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."
"I understand." She was paid to do the job and treated it as a job. At work, she should indeed ask fewer questions that are not related to the work.
Gu Wanqiu really didn't know what was happening here. She couldn't hear any movement, but when Li Jinxing took the woman upstairs and passed by her room, she heard their footsteps and conversation.
The room Li Jinxing arranged for someone was right next to hers, so they were going to live together.
What will happen if a single man and a single woman, or a couple, live together?
The house is soundproofed. The moment Li Jinxing opened the door and entered, the sound was blocked. The quieter it was and the less sound could be heard, the more people couldn't help but guess and imagine.
The pain that had originally eased spread throughout my body again, and my toes were in so much pain that they were straining.
She couldn't sleep that night. Even though her body didn't hurt anymore, she still couldn't sleep.
She struggled and slowly got up from the bed, leaning her back against the headboard, staring outside with dull and empty eyes. She thought a lot that night about what had happened between her and Li Jinxing.
The next day, the weather was still as hot as ever. The noisy cicadas in the bushes came into the room with the scorching summer breeze. The sharp sound seemed to burst the eardrums.
Early in the morning, Li Jinxing took Jiang Yun downstairs to eat. Everyone, including He Tian, was shocked to see this scene.
Especially He Tian, the reason is that the woman next to Li Jinxing looks very similar to Gu Wanqiu in the past.
What was he trying to do, raise a body double? But in his impression, Li Jinxing would never do such an outrageous thing.
He Tian was very suspicious and thought that this person who looked very similar to Gu Wanqiu had ulterior motives.
But it seems that Li Jinxing has always protected this woman and introduced her to him, Jiang Yun.
He Tian was too lazy to care about him and just reminded him that he should be sensible in everything he did.
The second person was the nanny who took care of Gu Wanqiu. She saw all this and felt sorry for Gu Wanqiu.
From Li Jinxing's words and actions, it can be seen that Mr. Li cares a lot about this woman.
Comparing Miss Jiang and Miss Gu, Miss Jiang is indeed more attractive than Gu Wanqiu. Not only is she good-looking, but she is also an actress. The key is that she is very healthy.
Since Li Jinxing already has someone he likes, there is no reason to keep Gu Wanqiu locked up here anymore.
In the morning, the nanny prepared breakfast as usual and sent it to Gu Wanqiu.
Seeing this, Jiang Yun asked, "Why is the breakfast she is holding different from the one we are eating? Who is it for?"
"A servant is sick, bring her food."
"You still have sick servants here."
"There are plenty of rooms. It's no big deal to leave them to a poor helpless person."
"I see..."
The nanny paused. How could Gu Wanqiu become a servant in Li Jinxing's mouth? She had even given birth to his child... So much had happened between them. Thinking about Gu Wanqiu now...
She is not even as good as a servant.
She brought the breakfast upstairs and when she opened the door, she saw Gu Wanqiu sitting with her back against the headboard, like a stiff piece of wood. When she heard the door open, she slowly turned her head.
"Miss Gu, it's time for breakfast."
"I heard it was quite lively outside. Are there any guests?"
It was impossible to tell from Gu Wanqiu's face how much she cared about Li Jinxing. The nanny hesitated whether to tell her the truth. After thinking about it carefully, she felt that even if she didn't tell her now, Gu Wanqiu would find out today.
"Boss Li is back. He brought a woman with him. She must be his new girlfriend."
"Is she...beautiful?"
"She's pretty, a celebrity. I've seen her on TV."
Gu Wanqiu seldom watches TV, but she also knows that most of the actors who can appear on TV are very beautiful. Being on camera is a test of a person's appearance. If you see a very beautiful actress on TV, then in real life, she will only be more beautiful than what you see on TV.
"Is he good to her?"
"It looks good now." It's hard to say what it will be like in the future.
Gu Wanqiu has rarely spoken recently, but she said so much this morning for Li Jinxing. Does that mean she cares about him?
As soon as she thought this, Gu Wanqiu stopped talking and ate breakfast quietly as usual.
The nanny took the bowl away, wondering if she could push Gu Wanqiu out to bask in the sun and relax today.
Every time she went out, Gu Wanqiu's mood would improve, which was very helpful for her condition.
Li Jinxing was back, so naturally, she could only ask Li Jinxing. While Jiang Yun was in the bathroom, the nanny bravely stepped forward and said, "Boss Li, the doctor said that letting Miss Gu go out for some fresh air and some sunshine would help her recover. Do you still want to let her go out today?"
"Just do it now as you normally do, no need to ask me."
"Okay, I understand." That's business as usual.
The nanny Gu Wanqiu kept looking out the window, as if she really wanted to go out.
"Miss Gu, are you going out?"
If she went out, she would definitely have to face Li Jinxing and his girlfriend. Gu Wanqiu shook her head: "I don't really want to go out today. Just push me to the balcony window to bask in the sun."
There are railings on the window now, so there is no need to worry about Gu Wanqiu falling down. The nanny helped Gu Wanqiu sit on the wheelchair and pushed her to the window. She held the curtain in her hand and half of her body was hidden behind the curtain.
She was like a mouse that kept breaking into other people's homes, sneaking around, not daring to move, and could only stay in an inconspicuous corner, carefully observing her surroundings.
Then she saw Li Jinxing appear in her sight holding a woman's hand.
