Chapter 934: The Scourge Lasts for Thousands of Years
Something must have happened, Mrs. Liu thought to herself.
But she didn't know how to ask. Gu Wanqiu didn't say anything, and she could only feel anxious.
After drinking a whole cup of hot water, Gu Wanqiu's throat was no longer blocked. She said, "Li Jinxing is dead."
Mrs. Liu took the cup and was about to pour another cup of hot water for Gu Wanqiu. After hearing this, her hand trembled and she didn't hold it firmly. The cup fell to the ground and broke with a "bang".
Mrs. Liu was completely stunned. She looked at the glass fragments all over the floor for a moment, not knowing whether she should ask Li Jinxing about the details or squat down to clean up the fragments.
Gu Wanqiu didn't like to hear anything about Li Jinxing. After warning her once a month ago, she never mentioned the name again.
When Li Jinxing was sentenced, she saw it on TV. She felt mixed emotions when he was sentenced to life imprisonment for twenty-two years. She thought that the law would not wrongly accuse a good person, so she accepted it and thought that she had misjudged him.
When Gu Wanqiu came back that day, she wanted to talk to her about Li Jinxing, but when she thought of Gu Wanqiu's previous warning, all those words were suppressed in her heart and she never said them out loud.
More than a month has passed in a flash, and some people and some things have begun to fade away. Unless I think about them deliberately, I usually can't remember that person.
Gu Wanqiu suddenly mentioned that Li Jinxing was dead. Upon hearing this name, Mrs. Liu was stunned for a moment, and then she noticed the word "death" at the end.
Li Jinxing is dead? How is that possible?
Not only did Gu Wanqiu not believe it, but Mrs. Liu also didn't believe it. If Gu Wanqiu hadn't had a serious face, she would have thought she was joking.
"Really dead?"
"Um."
"How is this possible..." Mrs. Liu's eyebrows were almost twisted into a knot, and she frowned and sighed a few times.
If she had to say who was the most powerful person she had ever met in her life, it would definitely be Li Jinxing. He was so young and had so many reasons. How could he be gone when he was only in his early twenties?
"Didn't he just go to jail? How could he die? Miss Gu, who told you that?"
"Everyone says that, it's an accident."
"How could such an accident happen in prison? He is so young..." Mrs. Liu didn't know what to say.
After spending so many days together, Mrs. Liu had a rough idea of Gu Wanqiu's temper and knew that she hated Li Jinxing.
Is it something to be happy about that the person you hate is dead?
Mrs. Liu couldn't see through the expression on Gu Wanqiu's face. Her face, chilled by the sea breeze, hadn't recovered yet and was still pale. She pursed her lips expressionlessly and was now looking at the debris on the ground with her eyes downcast.
Mrs. Liu couldn't help but sigh again, and took a broom to carefully sweep up the debris on the ground and dump it into the trash can.
Twenty-two years in prison might be worse than death for Li Jinxing.
But now that he is really dead, many people feel sorry and surprised.
Li Jinxing's death has once again become a hot topic. Some people feel it is a pity, some feel it is deserved, and most people remain neutral and feel that this matter has nothing to do with them and does not require too much attention.
In addition, Li Jinxing's incident also warned some people that they must be good people and do good things. Look, didn't Li Jinxing get his retribution? I thought he escaped the death penalty and was sentenced to life imprisonment, but I never thought that he died quietly in prison.
Mrs. Liu went into the kitchen and made a bowl of ginger soup for Gu Wanqiu to dispel the cold. She brought it to her and said, "Miss Gu, drink some ginger soup. Don't catch a cold."
Ginger soup has a pungent smell, which Gu Wanqiu doesn't like very much. Ginger can be added as a seasoning, but she will never eat it.
In the past, she would have definitely fallen down immediately, but around Li Jinxing, her delicate and sharp personality was gradually mellowed.
Drinking ginger soup is always better than taking medicine for a cold later. Gu Wanqiu frowned and drank the bowl of ginger soup. A slight tingling sensation came from the tip of his tongue.
It was already past eight o'clock after drinking the ginger soup. Usually at this time, Gu Wanqiu would just come back from outside to take a shower.
Today she went to the bedroom and sat on the bed for a long time. She picked up and put down the mobile phone beside the bed several times, wanting to check the trends on the Internet. She even had an urge to call He Tian to ask.
In the end, reason overcame the suppressed impulse. If she really made the call, wouldn't it mean that she cared about Li Jin?
She didn't care about him at all, yes, not at all.
But there are some things that the more you try not to care about them, his figure always appears in your mind.
Gu Wanqiu was soaking in the bathtub, her body sliding down, the water covering her eyes. She poked her head out of the water just when she was about to suffocate, her long hair wet and sticking to her snow-white skin. At this moment, she was like a breathtaking mermaid. She lay on the bathtub, opened her mouth and vomited uncontrollably, her upper body twitching, and she vomited out all the food she had eaten in the evening, along with the ginger soup. Suddenly, a burning pain came from her throat.
My stomach was emptied but it was still twitching, releasing stomach acid. My back was shaking uncontrollably, and my body was hot and cold while soaking in the water.
Gu Wanqiu felt a little uncomfortable. She was in poor health and often took medicine but rarely went to the hospital. She endured it as much as she could, and most of the time it would be over after a night's sleep.
Gu Wanqiu propped up her tired body, wrapped herself in a bathrobe and went out. She lay down on the bed without even blowing her hair, and her wet hair stained the sheets.
She curled up in bed, staring blankly out the window. She didn't know how long it had been before she fell into a drowsy sleep, her dreams filled with the image of Li Jinxing.
Li Jinxing always followed her, and he did whatever she said, being extremely obedient. No one could understand her as well as Li Jinxing, and he knew her likes and dislikes.
He used to be very good to her, but later... he knew exactly what she hated, but he still wanted to impose it on her.
She and Li Jinxing were like two fighting hedgehogs, each wanting only to pierce the other to pieces.
Gu Wanqiu's dream was too long. It was more like a long memory than a dream. She recalled the days when she pretended to be stupid and Li Jinxing played games with her. He knew that she liked to swing, so he sat on one under the camellia tree in the yard.
He would sing and tell stories to her at night and coax her to sleep like a child. He cooked delicious food. Although there was a chef at home, he did everything for her himself.
The occurrence of a tragedy is the result of the influence of internal and external factors. In such a scam, once the ending is determined to be tragic, all the beauty becomes cruel, even if it is just a simple hug and kiss.
The actor was so immersed in the play that perhaps she was also a little moved.
Gu Wanqiu knew that what Li Jinxing really wanted was to tame her into a dodder that could only depend on others, but what he didn't know was that a delicate plant like dodder that could only survive by relying on other plants survived by strangling other plants to obtain nutrients.
