Gu Shiheng looked at his son's stubborn expression and smiled, "I thought you would say the classic line, 'Woman, I, Gu Jinzhi, will never like you in my life.'"
Gu Jinzhi's face darkened completely: "Dad, please stop reading those messy things. It's better to practice more when you have free time."
-----------------
In the small building, Liang Qiushi took Li Wei to the second floor.
Pushing open the door next to the master bedroom, he gently introduced: "This is the bedroom prepared for you. I specially had it redecorated. Come and take a look. Do you like it?"
Li Wei looked inside and saw that the room was spacious and bright, probably at least 50 or 60 square meters, with a separate bathroom and walk-in closet.
The overall layout is elegant and comfortable, without excessive luxury, but every detail reveals low-key sophistication and care.
You can see that they really put a lot of thought into it.
She felt strangely touched and a little puzzled: "Aunt Liang, didn't you say before... that we wanted to live together?"
Liang Qiushi smiled and pushed her into the room: "We haven't officially gotten married yet, so let's live separately for a few days to give you two some time to get familiar with each other so that it won't be awkward later."
Li Wei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Thinking of the embarrassing scene of social demise just now in the martial arts arena, all ten of her toes are still curled up, and she wishes she could dig out a three-bedroom apartment on the spot and bury herself in it.
If she were really asked to sleep with Gu Jinzhi tonight, she felt that she would probably explode on the spot.
On the other side, Liang Qiushi had already opened Li Wei's suitcase naturally and helped her pack it up like a mother doing housework.
Small items such as jewelry were carefully placed in the drawers of the dressing table, and the "Jiang Xue" clothes brought back from England were hung in the cloakroom.
Seeing this, Li Wei hurried over to help.
But when she walked into the spacious cloakroom, she was stunned.
The wardrobes on three walls are densely packed with all kinds of women's clothing, and underneath are rows of brand new shoes and bags...a dazzling array of things.
Judging from the style and workmanship, they are undoubtedly top luxury goods.
Seeing her stunned look, Liang Qiushi smiled even more: "Look, these are all prepared for you in advance. I don't know if they suit your taste. Do you want to try them now and see if you like them?"
"This...is all for me?" Li Wei's voice was a little dry.
She had only seen this kind of scene in novels and TV dramas.
"Of course." Liang Qiushi said in a light tone, as if it were a matter of course.
As she spoke, she excitedly took out a chic, black, white and brown plaid Chanel-style jacket from the closet.
He started to gesture on Li Wei without saying anything, and made "tsk tsk" sounds of praise from time to time, with sparkling eyes.
In the next half hour, Li Wei sadly discovered that she had become Liang Qiushi's clothes rack.
From elegant long skirts to smart trousers, from casual sweatshirts to exquisite coats...
I changed into more than a dozen sets of clothes and was asked to strike various poses and even walk around the room to demonstrate the effects.
Liang Qiushi was very excited. He took out his mobile phone from time to time to take a few photos, muttering to himself, "My wife looks good in whatever she wears."
Li Wei was so confused that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she couldn't refuse this enthusiasm.
As he tried them on, Liang Qiushi regretfully concluded, "No, no, these standard sizes from store bought clothing are still a little off. They're barely wearable. After the wedding, I'll have a few designers I know come over and make some custom-made clothes for you."
After all this trouble, coupled with the huge consumption from the previous fight, Li Wei's head felt a little dizzy.
Amid Liang Qiushi's gentle smile and busy figure, a strange and unfamiliar emotion quietly grew.
In a daze, she had an illusion that she had really returned to "home".
It was as if she was really the future daughter-in-law of the Gu family, and was about to start a new life here.
As soon as this thought came to her mind, Li Wei shuddered as if she was pricked by a needle.
[No, this is not right!]
【Wake up, Li Wei! 】
【This is all fake, just acting.】
[I'm not Jiang Xue, I'm Li Wei! I'll leave here sooner or later. This isn't my home...]
Strong self-warning helped her break free from the illusory sense of belonging.
"Aunt Liang, I... am a little tired..."
She interrupted Liang Qiushi's enthusiasm, her voice carrying a hint of subtle fatigue and alienation.
Liang Qiushi suddenly remembered that Li Wei had just fought with Jin Zhi, and her energy and blood must have been greatly depleted.
I was so busy being happy that I neglected it.
She showed a slightly embarrassed smile on her face and quickly put down the clothes in her hands.
After carefully reminding her to go to bed early and to call her anytime if she needed anything, he gently closed the door and left.
The room finally became quiet.
Li Wei stood there for a while before silently packing up the clothes she had tried on and carefully hanging them back in the closet.
After doing all this, she looked out the window blankly.
The orange-red light dyed the sky brilliantly and gave the Gu family's courtyard a golden hue.
An inexplicable feeling of loneliness suddenly came over her, silently drowning her heart.
[I've lived two lifetimes, but I don't have a "home." Wherever I go, I feel like a passerby...]
She shook her head vigorously, trying to dispel the sudden sadness.
【Why think about these useless things? 】
[Let me think about registering for the Martial Arts Alliance exam tomorrow! My life of pretentiousness is about to begin in style!]
