Chapter 124 The Second Ending Jinjiang Official Version
She was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled bitterly.
"Gu Shi, if you feel uncomfortable being alone, find something else to do."
Tao Jinrong felt that she was qualified to say such things. After all, that was what she did. She tried her best to keep herself busy every day and find goals for herself so that she would not feel so lonely.
Qin Sizhao won't come back anyway, and she will have to live alone for the rest of her life.
She remembered that Gu Shi actually thought she was dead, and she was probably feeling bad these days.
But she was not dead, he could see her again, even kiss her and hug her.
But the Qin Sizhao she loved was really dead, and she would never see him again.
Why?
How unfair...
Her long eyelashes trembled, and she suddenly raised her eyes and stared at Gu Shi, her eyes full of jealousy.
Why should she be tortured by loneliness and misery, while he can immerse himself in the joy of regaining what he had lost and show his affection and courtship to her as if nothing had happened?
It really makes her uncomfortable!
She began to hate, began to hate that Gu Shi still loved her, hated that she was still alive. When she saw Gu Shi's face that both longed for happiness and feared happiness, she felt uncomfortable all over.
Tao Jinrong put his hand on his chest, took a deep breath, and looked at him resentfully.
Everything was fine when she left him, but once she got involved with Gu Shi, nothing good happened! She would become a deformed person like him!
"Gu Shi, I won't be with you, no matter what you say. Just give up."
She spoke word by word.
After she said that, he calmed down instead, staring blankly at a group of wild geese flying across the sky outside the window.
“…”
It's really a waste of words when there's no agreement! Tao Jinrong threw all the pots and pans on the table to the floor in a fit of rage, making a sharp sound in the quiet room.
"Being with you will make me become like this! You understand now! You understand why I don't want to be with you!"
He turned around, still staring at her blankly, and asked:
"What's wrong with that?"
Tao Jinrong felt extremely angry in an instant.
Gu Shi always aroused the dark side of her heart and enjoyed it.
He ignored the debris clattering on the ground and said calmly:
"Lingchuan, the conditions here are indeed a bit poor. Let's go to County Magistrate Li's house and stay there for a few days, and then return to the capital."
Hearing this, Tao Jinrong's eyes suddenly flashed, and his long eyelashes trembled violently like leaves with falling water droplets, and then shook three times.
She suddenly laughed, and her face became even more cold and charming. Seeing this smile, Gu Shi suddenly felt a prick for no reason and shuddered.
"Take me with you, and let me meet the wife of County Magistrate Li again. I have a lot to say to her."
Her voice was charming, high-pitched and impatient, but Gu Shi felt terrified when he heard it, but he couldn't say anything, so he just whispered:
"Okay, everything is up to you."
He relaxed his shoulders, looked up at Tao Jinrong, and used his eyes and body language to signal her to hug him.
She gave him a look of disgust, then reluctantly stretched out her arms and gently hugged him.
It was just a small thing, but he laughed so happily... The happier he was, the more uncomfortable she felt.
The house of County Magistrate Li was still the same. As soon as she stepped over the threshold with her left foot, she felt a chill, as if Qin Sizhao's kiss before leaving had fallen back on her lips.
There were people coming and going around her, but she felt very lonely.
Gu Shi seemed to notice that she was in a bad mood, so he stretched out his hand to her, motioning her to hold him, but she ignored him and retracted her hand into her sleeve.
A plump woman with a smile on her face came out and saluted politely:
"Your Majesty."
"Mrs. Li, how are you?"
A sharp, cold-blooded voice filled with suppressed murderous intent rang out. Her body softened instantly when she heard it, and she raised her head in horror.
It was Tao Jinrong. She stood next to Gu Shi in an intimate manner, staring down at her condescendingly, as if she was accepting a gift on his behalf.
Why is she here?!
Mrs. Li's eyes rolled around rapidly. She didn't believe a single word of Tao Jinrong's crazy talk that day. How could such a weird and bizarre thing happen in this world?
She must have used some despicable means to climb up the social ladder by relying on her good looks.
Mrs. Li felt that everything in front of her eyes was white and the world was spinning. She kowtowed three times in a hurry.
"Madam Qin, I apologize for offending you before. Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me."
Gu Shi's expression suddenly darkened, and he asked in a low voice:
"What did you call her?"
"Your Majesty may not know that this lady has long been the wife of Mr. Qin."
She kowtowed twice on the ground.
I guess Tao Jinrong had concealed the fact that he was already married in order to climb up the social ladder. Otherwise, how could His Majesty be interested in a married woman?
After hearing this, Jinzhan couldn't bear it anymore and rolled her eyes.
Idiot! You're really asking for trouble! Someone's just trying to get close to you, and you have no right to tell them what to do?
Seeing that Gu Shi's face was getting worse and worse, Jinzhan was really afraid that he would suddenly faint, so she quickly tried to smooth things over and said:
"Your Majesty is just feeling better now. You can't stand here in the wind for too long. It would be bad if he caught a cold. Miss, please help His Majesty inside to rest. We can talk about anything later. Anyway, the golden hairpin fell into the well. It's yours. It's never too late to deal with it later."
She looked at Madam Li with sympathy. It was really a disaster for her to offend two such ancestors at once.
Tao Jinrong sighed, said nothing, and helped Gu Shixian back to the house to rest.
"Gu Shi, please rest in the room. I have something to do, so I'd like to borrow your guard for a while. Is six hundred taels of silver enough for one loan?"
She took out six hundred taels of silver from her sleeve.
"Yes, I'll let you borrow it once, but first you have to tell me, what happened between you and her?"
“…”
Tao Jinrong was silent for a while, then said:
"You'd better not listen to the conflicts between women. Anyway, just borrow it first."
"Why, with her appearance, could she possibly seduce your husband?"
"Don't talk nonsense. Anyway, I have the banknotes ready. Even if you don't come, I will hire someone else to deal with her."
"How strange! In the past, when others offended you, you never took their lives. How deep of a grudge could you harbor to be so hateful?"
"You're weak now. If you knew, I'm afraid you'd be scared to death. It's better for you not to know."
Tao Jinrong walked out with a gloomy face, holding the banknote, and found a guard at random, put the banknote into his hand, and said:
"Six hundred taels, help me kill someone."
The guard was startled and said:
"This...this...I can't make the decision..."
"Your Majesty agrees."
A voice came from behind Tao Jinrong:
"I agree, but I want to go with you."
The guard quickly knelt down and saluted. Tao Jinrong frowned and turned around and said:
"Aren't you afraid of blood? You've just recovered from your illness and can barely stand. Why are you joining in the fun? By the time you're done, your legs will give out and you'll pass out before anything happens."
"You don't have to watch it from beginning to end, just let the guards clean it up."
He smiled at the guard and said:
"Take her banknote. It was she who hired you this time, not me who helped her."
Tao Jinrong muttered softly:
"Finally, he said something human."
Gu Shi glanced at the guard lightly:
"Send everyone else away. Keep your hands and feet clean and your mouth shut. Don't say anything. Understand?"
"yes……"
Mrs. Li's legs went weak and she knelt on the ground.
Gu Shi was sitting in the main seat, Tao Jinrong was standing behind him, and there was a guard with a sword standing next to her. She immediately felt that something was wrong.
Tao Jinrong glanced at her and sneered:
"Madam Li, although this isn't particularly glorious...how could I have ever lied to you? Everything I said that day was true, absolutely not a single lie."
