Chapter 107 Stepping into the Mud
Lin Wei went downstairs feeling uneasy.
He pulled out a chair, sat down, and glanced across the dining table.
"Aunt Liu, I suddenly have a craving for dumplings. Could you cook me a bowl?"
"The quick-frozen kind will do, it'll be ready quickly."
Aunt Liu has worked for the Lin family for many years.
Having practically watched Lin Wei grow up, he stopped what he was doing.
He gave Lin Wei a meaningful look.
While cleaning the hallway in the morning, she glimpsed a pair of men's leather shoes inside the young lady's bedroom door...
Although it was just a fleeting moment.
But it still didn't escape her eyes.
It's clearly that of the young lady's friend.
"Hey, there's something ready in the fridge, it'll be done in ten minutes."
"Thank you, Aunt Liu!"
Lin Wei breathed a sigh of relief and returned to her seat.
A little while later, Aunt Liu brought over a large bowl of dumplings.
Su Qing sipped her porridge and saw the bowl of dumplings.
She looked up in surprise and examined her daughter.
"Weiwei, why are you eating so many dumplings so early in the morning?"
"Can we finish it?"
Lin Wei felt a pang of guilt, but forced herself to remain calm.
"Hmm... I'm suddenly really hungry. Maybe... maybe I've been staying up too late lately."
I feel like I could eat a whole cow right now!
Father Lin Yaocheng pushed up his glasses, glanced at his daughter,
He didn't say anything.
Halfway through breakfast, Lin Wei was sipping her porridge with a heavy heart, feeling anxious.
How should I bring this bowl of dumplings upstairs?
Suddenly, the sound of a door opening came from the second floor.
Lin Wei's heart skipped a beat. Did Gu Jingcheng think she was at home?
What should I do if I go downstairs?
"Mom and Dad, I think I forgot my phone upstairs! I'll go get it!"
After saying that, Lin Wei ran upstairs.
Su Qing frowned, put down her spoon,
"Have you noticed that our daughter seems a bit strange today?"
Something was wrong from the moment I woke her up this morning.
"I think I heard a man's voice in her room just now."
"Old Lin, has our daughter been hiding a man in the house?"
Lin Yaocheng pushed up his glasses. "Don't overthink it. How could that be?"
But he knew perfectly well in his heart that...
He saw it clearly from the third-floor balcony last night.
Gu Jingcheng held his daughter tightly, refusing to let go.
The two of them entered together.
Lin Yaocheng unconsciously tightened his grip on the magazine.
What kind of son-in-law lives in his mother-in-law's house and then hides away like that?
Gu Jingcheng didn't care about his daughter at all.
It's time to find some time to have a proper talk with that kid.
It can't be left so ambiguous.
Although the Lin family is not as prominent as the Gu family,
But in Jiangcheng it is considered
Well-known
How could Weiwei endure such injustice?
There wasn't even a proper wedding.
They also had to keep their marriage a secret.
-
As soon as Lin Wei reached the second floor, she saw the tall figure had already opened the door.
Gu Jingcheng had just woken up, and his hair was a little messy.
The bathrobe was loosely tied.
His collarbone and a small patch of firm chest were exposed.
When he saw Lin Wei, his deep eyes lit up.
A gentle smile graced her face.
"micro.."
Before she could finish speaking, Lin Wei stood on tiptoe.
She reached out and covered the man's mouth.
Gu Jingcheng was caught off guard and was completely covered up by her.
He raised an eyebrow, looking down at the woman who only reached his chin.
Its body is soft and cuddly, so cute!
His Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily.
The man was far superior to her.
Lin Wei pushed him into the room with difficulty.
Lock the door from the inside.
"Didn't I tell you not to come out? I'll bring you breakfast later."
Gu Jingcheng was a little confused by her.
When did you say that?
But seeing the woman looking at him reproachfully,
All that was left in my mind was the desire to coax her.
He held her small hand in his palm.
He bent down slightly to look her in the eye, his voice hoarse from just waking up.
Gently coax.
"Okay, okay, I was wrong."
His fingertips unconsciously caressed the back of her hand, with a hint of ingratiation.
"This is my home, and my parents are downstairs. What if they find out?"
Lin Wei tried to pull her hand back, but failed, and her tone softened unconsciously.
Gu Jingcheng scoffed.
"Weiwei, we're legal, what are we afraid of?"
Lin Wei's voice was even lower.
"Didn't you say you wanted to keep the marriage a secret?"
Gu Jingcheng paused, and the smile on his face faded slightly.
Yes, it was his idea to keep the marriage secret.
His actions just now will cause her trouble.
"I'm sorry, I understand, it won't happen again."
He lowered his head and gently pressed his forehead against hers.
Gu Jingcheng's stomach rumbled.
His tone carried a hint of grievance.
Honey, I'm hungry.
Lin Wei's cheeks burned, and she broke free from his embrace.
"I...I'll get you some food."
Gu Jingcheng looked at him with a dark expression.
A wicked smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
In the restaurant, only her bowl of dumplings remained.
Su Qing and Lin Yaocheng sat on the sofa to rest.
Lin Wei tiptoed upstairs carrying the dumplings.
I was afraid of disturbing my parents.
On the living room sofa, Lin Yaocheng's eyes kept following his daughter out of the corner of his eye.
Watching her pick up the dumplings and run upstairs,
I felt a pang of sadness and a very unpleasant feeling.
His beloved daughter,
He has pampered and spoiled me since I was a child.
When is it necessary to serve others in this way?
Making her do these things right after getting married.
They also need to be taken upstairs to eat.
This kid is outrageous!
Lin Yaocheng's expression grew increasingly grim as he thought about it.
The newspaper in his hand rustled as he gripped it.
Su Qing looked at him suspiciously.
"What's wrong with you? Why do you look so gloomy?"
Then, suddenly, he moved closer with renewed interest.
"I've heard that Jinshan Temple is very efficacious."
Let's go pray for a good marriage for our daughter, Lao Lin!
Lin Yaocheng's expression turned complicated when he heard "seeking a marriage partner".
Unable to resist his wife's soft pleas,
"Okay, okay, go ahead."
"Really? Then I'll call my daughter along."
Let her go and pray too; sincerity is key!
Goodbye!
Call my daughter, what about the one upstairs?
"Her loud, boisterous personality, always running around everywhere,"
You definitely won't be able to calm your mind if you go to a temple.
Weiwei finally got two days off.
Let her rest at home.
"The two of us can go; the thought is what counts."
"Yes, it's time to let Weiwei get some rest."
"Then let's not call her, the two of us will go."
As the sound of car engines in the yard gradually faded into the distance,
Lin Wei's tense nerves relaxed.
She went to the balcony and leaned out.
I breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that my parents' black minivan had indeed left.
Turning around, her gaze fell on Gu Jingcheng.
He ate quickly, but not rudely.
His profile is sharp and handsome.
As she watched, Lin Wei's smile faded.
The name she heard on the receiver last night,
Like a small thorn, it pierced her heart.
Who is Qianqian?
She didn't know.
But she could probably guess.
It's related to the Bai family; he came directly to her last night after leaving the Bai family.
She also smelled of another woman's perfume.
So, he went to the Bai family's house last night.
Was it to see that "Qianqian"?
Was he slightly tipsy because of her?
A series of questions swirled in her heart, bringing a bitter, dull ache.
They got married and were legally the closest of people.
But she knew nothing about his world.
She wanted to ask him who Qianqian was.
Was his decision to secretly marry her also because of Qianqian?
But the words lingered in my throat, and I never had the courage to ask them.
She was afraid of hearing answers she didn't want to hear.
Afraid of confirming their suspicions,
I'm afraid that the heart I've finally opened to him...
It was crushed and trampled into the mud.
