Chapter 963 Cut down this tree
It is not easy to catch the loach that has slipped back into the muddy water.
But this is not a problem for Li Jinxing. He just needs to drain the mud and water and expose it to the sun every day. One day he will see the "loach". Even if it is dried into a dried loach, he will get it in the end.
Li Jinxing didn't believe that Gu Wanqiu would travel at this time. She was too delicate, like a flower in a greenhouse, which could not be blown by the wind, drenched by the rain, or exposed to the sun.
In such a hot day, Gu Wanqiu is most afraid of the heat, and her white skin will easily get sunburned.
In previous years, when the summer was this hot, Gu Wanqiu would turn on the air conditioner at home, and the indoor temperature was always around 25 degrees. She would paint, play the piano, and occasionally tease him.
When she went out to school, he held an umbrella under the scorching sun, and there was a special car to pick her up. The only difficult thing was probably the physical education class in the summer. However, Gu Wanqiu's status was there, and Gu Chaodong knew that she was delicate, so he simply donated a building to the school and asked the principal to specifically ask the teachers in the class to take more care of her. So when she didn't want to attend physical education class, she could just say that she was not feeling well.
And no matter where she wanted to go under the sun, he would hold an umbrella for her.
So sometimes Li Jinxing was very curious. Even though she was so spoiled, he still couldn't spoil her. How did she live when she left here and went to Country M? How did she stay in the hospital for so long?
Didn't she feel a little uncomfortable or unaccustomed to leaving him?
Now she left here again, escaped from him.
Li Jinxing suddenly felt a sense of dejection in his heart. As he thought about it... he suddenly laughed out loud, with a strong sense of sarcasm.
Why is it that you never learn your lesson? My lady.
In Qiule Manor.
Li Jinxing stood beneath a camellia tree. It was almost camellia season. He looked up at the gaps between the leaves, thinking of Gu Wanqiu. His face was filled with extreme fanaticism. His slender fingers gently stroked the trunk. He whispered, "Cut this tree down."
He Tian in front of him couldn't hear clearly the "Hmm?"
"I say, cut down this tree."
Why would they chop down a good tree? He Tian saw Li Jinxing's slightly gloomy expression and felt that he didn't want to chop down trees but people.
…
Gu Wanqiu's sudden departure didn't seem like a big deal to He Tian. He didn't notice anything wrong either. He just thought that Gu Wanqiu really wanted to go out for a walk to relax.
Zhou Yi, who was standing by, didn't think so. Seeing Li Jinxing's expression, coupled with what he had said to Gu Wanqiu in the hospital before, and her actions at that time...
After the two left, Zhou Yi said, "Gu Wanqiu, you should have discovered that President Li is not dead."
He Tian was shocked: "How did she find out?"
"Rather than saying she discovered it, it's better to say that Gu Wanqiu realized from the very beginning that President Li was not dead. Have you forgotten that she always said she didn't believe it?"
"I thought we hid it well." After all, all the procedures were completed, and everyone outside, even Liu Zibo, believed that Li Jinxing was dead. At that time, they even prepared "ashes" to scatter in front of Gu Wanqiu and handed her the death certificate.
"Gu Wanqiu should have been completely certain when she was in the hospital. She tested me." Zhou Yi said.
Gu Wanqiu is a smart person, and considering her understanding of Li Jinxing, it is not easy to deceive her.
But since she knew this, why didn't she expose it? If someone outside knew that Li Jinxing was still alive, it would definitely cause them a lot of trouble, big or small. Since Li Jinxing was imprisoned, many people have been hoping for his death, and there are too many people who want to secretly eliminate him.
If the Liu family had joined forces with other family businesses from the beginning and made preparations earlier, perhaps they would not have collapsed so quickly, and they might even have been bitten back.
What kind of feelings does Gu Wanqiu have for Li Jinxing, or what is she more inclined towards?
After learning that Li Jinxing was not dead, she actually chose to escape.
Didn't she know that Li Jinxing didn't die this time, and when he became stronger, he would catch her back no matter how far she ran? Her escape now was just a meaningless struggle.
He Tian couldn't help but get himself involved. If he were Gu Wanqiu, he might as well give it a try.
It is difficult to guess what a woman is thinking, so He Tian expressed his doubts.
Zhou Yi thought for a moment and said, "Gu Wanqiu must be too afraid of President Li."
Because she was too afraid of being alone, she subconsciously wanted to hide. It's not that she didn't give it a try, but the time she spent pretending to be with Li Jinxing had consumed all her strength and energy, making her dare not gamble anymore. That's why she resorted to this bad idea and chose to leave secretly at this time.
He Tian chuckled: "I was overthinking it. I thought she had other feelings for Mr. Li and couldn't bear it..."
Zhou Yi glanced at him calmly, and after a long while he said, "Maybe."
Feelings cannot be seen in just a few words or a few glances. Even if Gu Wanqiu really has some unexpected feelings for Li Jinxing, Li Jinxing will not be soft-hearted towards her. After all, once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of ropes for ten years.
During the time that Gu Wanqiu was away, Mrs. Liu stayed in the North City. It was too boring to be alone, so she planted some vegetables in the vacant land in the yard.
There are the commonly eaten Chinese cabbage, radishes, and cherry tomatoes. The land is not big, so these are enough to grow. She was still thinking that maybe she could eat them when Gu Wanqiu comes back. Gu Wanqiu likes to eat cabbage and tomatoes very much, and the radishes can also be stewed into soup.
After applying fertilizer to the vegetables, Mrs. Liu returned to the living room and called her daughter to ask about her recent situation.
My eighteen-year-old daughter is now at the age when she has her own ideas and dislikes her parents' control. She hung up the phone impatiently after just a few words.
Mrs. Liu looked disappointed and missed Gu Wanqiu a little at this time.
"I don't know when I can come back." The house is too big, and she is too lonely and bored staying here alone. Although Gu Wanqiu said that she could bring her daughter to live here, she didn't think it was a good idea. After all, this is Gu Wanqiu's home, and the furnishings and tableware in the house are very expensive. What if her daughter gets hurt when she comes?
If Gu Wanqiu asked her to take good care of this "home", she would definitely do so. Not a blade of grass, not a brick, not a wall here could be destroyed.
Mrs. Liu turned on the TV and pressed the remote control aimlessly, hoping to kill time and divert her attention by watching TV.
She quickly pressed the channel, and suddenly something flashed on the TV screen, and she quickly rewound to watch.
——Liu Group declared bankruptcy.
