The car drove out of the Jiang family manor, quickly got on the highway, and sped towards the imperial capital.
Li Wei leaned back in the chair, and the annoyance that had been choking her heart seemed to dissipate a lot as the car moved.
She leaned against the car window, feeling the slight bumps, and her mind involuntarily replayed the memories in the upside-down realm.
On the ninth floor...I did faint.
If Gu Jinzhi hadn't gotten her out of that damn place, the consequences would have been disastrous.
Who knows, maybe you will really capsize in the ditch.
You can't always have a sour face when facing your savior, right?
【As a human being, you should always be grateful and repay kindness. 】
Li Wei silently warned herself in her heart.
[I have to break this ice before returning to the Gu family.]
[The Gu family still has spies from the Zhang family...]
Little did she know that Liang Qiushi's "plan" had already been shattered into pieces, to the point where it couldn't be put back together.
As for the Zhang family... they are in trouble now, so how can they have the time to pay attention to the love-hate relationship between Gu Jinzhi and "Jiang Xue"?
......
Having made up her mind, Li Wei took a deep breath, sorted out her confused thoughts, then turned around and prepared to speak.
But when she turned her head, she happened to bump into Gu Jinzhi's cold and deep eyes.
He seemed to be looking over at this moment, with his lips slightly parted, as if he was about to say something.
Their eyes met, and they were both stunned for a moment, the words they had prepared stuck in their throats.
The atmosphere in the car was a little weird.
Li Wei: “…”
Gu Jinzhi: “…”
The air was frozen for a few breaths...
Finally, it was Gu Jinzhi who broke the silence first.
He tilted his head slightly, his voice carrying his unique magnetic quality: "Jiang... Jiang Xue, are you feeling better?"
Li Wei heaved a sigh of relief when he spoke first, then said, "The external injuries aren't serious, but his spirit needs some time to recover."
Having said that, she suddenly remembered that Jiang Xinyue had mentioned that Gu Jinzhi and Min Zimo would also enter the "Sky Viewing Mirror" together.
So, she asked, "Gu Jinzhi...is there something wrong with your soul?"
Gu Jinzhi shook his head slightly: "No."
Li Wei was a little puzzled: "Then why did you want to enter the 'Sky Mirror'?"
Gu Jinzhi was silent for a few seconds, looking out the window, and only replied vaguely: "There are some other things that need to be taken care of."
Li Wei said "Oh", and seeing that he seemed unwilling to talk more, she did not continue to ask.
She turned her gaze back to the window, watching the trees and fields rapidly receding, her mind somewhat blank.
The carriage was silent again for a moment.
After a long while, so long that Li Wei thought Gu Jinzhi would not speak again, he suddenly said, "Min Zimo came to see me yesterday."
Li Wei almost subconsciously replied, "What do I want to see you for?"
"He treated me to a meal as a token of his gratitude." Gu Jinzhi's tone lacked any emotion, "and he also invited both of us to enter the Sky Mirror together."
Li Wei was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then she felt speechless. "No... I saved him, why would he treat you to a meal?"
If you want to thank someone, you should thank her, the real person. Why are you looking for Gu Jinzhi?
Is that guy's brain circuit a little abnormal?
Gu Jinzhi looked at her cute little expression with a hint of dissatisfaction, and a smile flashed across his usually cold eyes.
He seemed to have found some of the feeling he had that day in the Upside Down Domain when the two of them sat side by side and talked.
My mentality inevitably became relaxed, and I even had a little joking thought.
So, he deliberately maintained his coolness and slowly explained, "You are my wife."
He put more emphasis on the word "wife" and continued.
"It's inappropriate for him, a young man, to ask you out."
Seeing Li Wei's slender jade fingers accidentally brushing the buckle on her waist, he paused and added: "Besides, you just finished healing, didn't you?"
When Li Wei heard him say the word "wife" seriously, the veins on her forehead jumped uncontrollably.
Wife, you big head ghost!
[Damn, when I go to Western Xinjiang, who will still recognize you?]
She spat in her heart, but tried to remain calm on the surface. She rolled her eyes and said weakly:
"So? He just expressed his gratitude to you and sent you an invitation? Nothing substantial?"
[You're just treating me to a meal for saving my life? Min Zimo is so stingy!]
Gu Jinzhi looked at her money-loving appearance, and the curve of his lips unconsciously deepened a little. He then took out a card from his trouser pocket and handed it to Li Wei.
It was a silver-gray card, slightly cool to the touch, but the texture was quite good.
Li Wei took it and looked at it carefully over and over again.
The card was very thin, with nothing on the surface except some gray-black stripes of varying shades, seemingly arranged in a disorderly manner, and a small string of fine codes in the lower right corner.
There is neither the logo of the issuing organization nor any description of its function and value.
It looks like an ordinary magnetic card that is slightly better made.
Li Wei's brows furrowed slightly, and her tone was filled with obvious dissatisfaction: "That's it?"
This is too perfunctory!
Gu Jinzhi nodded slightly: "That's it."
