Chapter 151: Something Happened
After three or four seconds of silence, Gu Xixing said one word, "Yes."
"Gu Xixing, I'm already married." Tu Ran was about to drop a bombshell.
"I know." His tone was calm.
Now it was Tu Ran's turn to be shocked. Judging from Gu Xixing's reaction, it seemed that he had known it for a long time.
She laughed at herself. Yes, with Gu Xixing's status and position, wouldn't it be easy for him to investigate anything?
"So, don't like married women."
"This is not good for you, and it's disrespectful to me."
"You understand this kind of relationship."
Tu Ran didn't want to use moral blackmail to preach a lot of truths, but there were interests involved, and she believed that Gu Xixing was so smart that he would understand what she meant immediately.
"Tu Ran, I know you and Xie Nancheng are not together because of love."
"It was just a deal that went awry."
"I don't know whether Xie Nancheng is good to you or not."
"But I think you won't stay in the Xie family forever."
"I am willing to remain friends with you before you leave the Xie family."
"Wait until the day you leave the Xie family and regain your freedom."
"I'm pursuing you openly, okay?"
"By then, we will be unmarried, so you won't have any psychological burden." Gu Xixing didn't know if it was because he saw Tu Ran sitting opposite him that he suddenly gained courage.
He actually said all the sweet words that he hadn't said in all these years.
Of course, this may not sound sweet to others.
But it has become the ultimate expression of his life.
"What if I can't leave the Xie family for ten years?" Tu Ran asked back.
"Then I'll wait ten years."
"What if I never leave the Xie family?"
Gu Xixing was silent... A lifetime is indeed a bit long.
"Look, things are unpredictable, Gu Xixing. I can't make any promises to you. Don't have any illusions about me. I came to you today to make things clear."
"I thought we were friends."
"I thought I was overthinking it."
"But your kindness to me has crossed the line, and I'm really under a lot of psychological pressure. Especially since the car incident had a big impact on me, so I might as well just say it straight out. Regardless of whether I leave the Xie family or not, I don't want to accept your love."
"Why?" Gu Xixing felt a little uncomfortable.
"Because I don't like you."
"This may sound hurtful, but to be honest, I don't like lying," she said.
"Then do you like Xie Nancheng?"
"Neither do I."
"Since you don't like him, why can't you be with me? I can also have what he gave you." Gu Xixing spoke in a low voice, so cautiously.
"It's different." Tu Ran turned his head and looked out the window again.
"What's the difference?"
"We met at different times, and our lives began in different orders. I'm only in my 20s, I'm still young, and I don't want to waste my time on romance. I still have a lot of things to do. Gu Xixing, I know you're feeling bad now that things have developed to this point, but... I still want to say, let's not be friends anymore."
Gu Xixingzhi felt his chest suddenly tighten, as if it was being pulled by an invisible big hand.
"You are so outstanding, you deserve a better girl."
"But I'm obviously not a good match for you."
"If you respect me, please promise me."
"I think I've made it clear today. Let's delete each other's WeChat and phone calls, and then... just return to the sea of people."
"Thank you for saving me several times."
"But my abilities are limited. I'm just an ordinary person. I really can't give back."
"If there's an opportunity in the future... and you need me, please let me know, Mr. Gu. I, Tu Ran, will definitely not refuse."
"That's where our fate ends."
"I'm leaving first."
After saying these words, Tu Ran didn't want to stay any longer, so he got up and left, paying the bill as well.
She is a decisive person and never likes to keep others hanging, and of course she would never do that.
If I don’t like it, I don’t like it.
She could understand that Gu Xixing was good to her.
Others have the right to pursue her, but she is still in the Xie family.
She is still Xie Nancheng's wife, so it is really inconvenient for her to continue dating Gu Xixing.
Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about the second and third branches of the Xie family.
He was worried that he couldn't find any black material. If Xie Huailan found out that they knew each other, she would make a big fuss about it.
Then it would be the Xie family that would lose face.
She didn't care about the reputation of the Xie family, but Grandma Xie was very kind to her and she didn't want to let the old lady down.
At least before she divorced Xie Nancheng, she didn't want to cause any scandals.
Gu Xixing is a very good person, but she feels that she is not a good match for him.
On the way back, Tu Ran was thinking as he watched the falling snowflakes.
If I leave the Xie family in the future, I will no longer have contact with top dignitaries.
Since I am an ordinary person, there is nothing wrong with finding an ordinary person to marry and have children.
Why bother with the ups and downs of this wealthy family? What you are obsessed with is not wealth and glory.
Gu Xixing is a good person, but she doesn't want to drag things out.
I don't want to leave any memories for him, that would be meaningless.
On the way back, Tu Ran took out his mobile phone and deleted Gu Xixing's WeChat and phone number.
She believed that Gu Xixing, such a smart person, would accept her decision.
In fact, Tu Ran has a secret in his heart.
She is very afraid of others being nice to her.
Because she always feels that she may not be able to repay the kindness others have shown her.
And she happens to be someone who doesn't want to owe favors to others.
She had been in the Lin family for four years and had never owed anything because her grandfather had given her a generous dowry.
She also worked at the Lin family, cleaning and cooking.
But in the Xie family, thanks to the care of the old lady of the Xie family, I cannot let her down.
As for Xie Nancheng...
She didn't want to be involved in anything. Not only did she not like men with bad tempers, she also didn't like men who had other women in their hearts. Xie Nancheng also had Xuan'er, and she had not forgotten that.
Half an hour later
A piece of breaking news once again made her heart ache——
——The president of Chengtian Pharmaceutical was suspected to have been involved in a car accident.
Tu Ran took a deep breath and quickly turned on his phone.
News about car accidents is everywhere.
Calculating the time, they should be on their way back after meeting.
If Gu Xixing got into trouble because of what she said, how could she get over it?
——Chengtian Pharmaceutical President Gu Xixing was suspected of being involved in a car accident and collided with a truck. According to eyewitnesses, when the accident happened, President Gu allegedly ran a red light. He has now been sent to a nearby hospital. The specific injuries have not been announced yet. This station will continue to follow up on the report.
Hospital
All the members of the Gu family arrived at the scene, running around in a panic. At this time, the door of the emergency room opened and the doctor came out.
"Doctor, how is my son?" Mr. Gu's hands were shaking and he was supported by his wife.
"Doctor, what happened to my brother?" Gu Huan's eyes were red and swollen from crying.
