Chapter 105 Reluctant to Part
Lin Wei slept soundly for a long time.
I was woken up by the 7:00 alarm I had set.
This is dinnertime.
She had to get up no matter how tired she was, otherwise her parents would become suspicious.
Lin Wei stretched, feeling most of the soreness and weakness in her body dissipate.
He slowly swung his arms as he went downstairs.
The aroma of food wafted from the restaurant downstairs.
Lin Yaocheng and Su Qing were already seated at the table.
"Weiwei is awake, come and eat."
Su Qing greeted her gently.
Lin Wei sat down next to her mother.
Su Qing put a braised prawn in her bowl.
Looking at her daughter's beautiful profile.
My eyes are filled with stars.
Her little one is getting prettier and prettier.
"Weiwei, have you been busy with work lately?"
Have you met any new friends you get along with?
Lin Wei slowed down her chewing.
"Look, you and Gu Xuan have been separated for a while now."
She's at the perfect age; if she meets someone good...
You could try contacting them and see.
Don't lose faith in relationships because of Gu Xuan.
There are plenty of good men in the world.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Lin Wei's mind.
Gu Jingcheng's handsome, aloof face made her ears burn.
She lowered her eyelashes guiltily, picking at the rice in her bowl.
"Mom, ...I just want to focus on my work right now. As for relationships...I'm not in a rush."
Lin Yaocheng felt a pang of sadness; his daughter had secretly married Gu Jingcheng.
There wasn't even a proper wedding.
That kid didn't come over for dinner either.
He didn't even let Weiwei meet his family.
If it weren't for rescuing him.
My daughter wouldn't feel so wronged.
"Alright, alright, Weiwei is still young and her career is just starting out. There's no rush to date."
Su Qing gave her husband a reproachful look, and was about to say something more...
The doorbell rang.
Aunt Liu hurried to open the door.
"Miss Shi?"
"Nuan Nuan? What brings you here? Come in quickly!"
Shi Nuan's eyes were red and swollen like a rabbit's, and she stood at the door with a flustered expression.
"It's Nuannuan! Haven't eaten yet? Come and have something to eat with us."
Shi Nuan was pulled to sit down at the dining table by Lin Wei, and managed a forced smile.
He ate the food Aunt Liu added without tasting it.
After dinner,
The door closed.
Shi Nuan's tears rolled down her cheeks like beads from a broken string.
"Weiwei... I'm finished..."
Lin Wei frowned.
"What's wrong?"
Shi Nuan took out an anonymous envelope and stuffed it into Lin Wei's hand.
Tears still wouldn't stop falling.
Lin Wei opened it, and inside were several clear photos.
The photo was taken from a clever angle, perfectly capturing the ambiguous relationship between Shi Nuan and Qin Simiao.
Those last few photos of them entering the hotel room together are irrefutable evidence.
There was also a printed extortion letter inside the envelope.
He asked for 5 million, and even had Shi Nuan personally deliver it to his room.
This implies, quite bluntly, that they want not only money, but also people!
Lin Wei's fingers were holding those photos.
"You and...Qin Simiao?! You two...slept together?!"
Shi Nuan rubbed her temples, her face full of worry.
"I drank too much that night...it's no use talking about it now..."
Lin Wei's heart tightened.
She had long heard about the murky nature of the entertainment industry.
I never imagined it would happen to my best friend.
Shi Nuan signed a 5-year contract with the company, which prohibits her from dating and requires her to maintain a single persona.
If it's exposed that he/she had a hotel room with someone else.
The whole business is over.
Lin Wei looked at Shi Nuan's fragile face,
I remember her practicing songs with her guitar over and over again until her voice was hoarse.
Her love for music is pure and passionate, and it would be too unfair to let it be ruined because of this.
If those people only want money, she can handle it.
But their scheme to target Shi Nuan is utterly despicable!
Lin Wei suddenly thought of Gu Jingcheng.
Back then, Gu Xuan and Lin Yan had such a scandal...
He managed to suppress them all.
He might... have a way to help Shi Nuan.
Lin Wei looked at Shi Nuan.
"Nuan Nuan, don't go back and get some sleep yet. I'll think of something!"
After seeing Shi Nuan off, Lin Wei dialed Gu Jingcheng's number.
…
at the same time,
The Bai family.
Gu Jingcheng leaned against the bed.
His breathing was heavy, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
His most primal desires were assaulting his reason.
Bai Wanwan wore a plain-colored long dress by Bai Qianqian.
She snuggled closer, her fingers trembling as she unbuttoned his shirt.
She imitated her sister's tone of voice.
"Brother Jingcheng...are you feeling unwell? Let me help you..."
Gu Jingcheng's eyes were unfocused, and Bai Qianqian's face swayed.
Guilt tore at him, and a deep pain and sorrow filled his chest.
A tear welled up in the corner of her eye.
"Qianqian, you are not dead."
You're still alive?
"Qianqian, it's...I'm sorry!"
Bai Wanwan's heart was bleeding; he really couldn't let go of his sister.
Even after getting married, she would not refuse her sister's advances.
Then what is she?
On what grounds?
She moved even faster, and most of the buttons on Gu Jingcheng's chest were already undone.
The man's muscular chest was laid bare before her.
Her cheeks were burning.
He reached out to unbuckle Gu Jingcheng's belt.
The man's veined hand gripped hers tightly.
"Qianqian, what are you doing?"
Bai Wanwan paused for a moment, her voice soft and sweet.
"Jingcheng, I love you. Let's...let's be together, okay?"
Gu Jingcheng's eyes suddenly darkened.
He forcefully pushed the woman off him.
His eyes were fierce.
"You...you're not Qianqian!"
The cell phone in my trouser pocket rang!
Mrs. Gu's name was displayed on the screen.
Gu Jingcheng shook his head, forcing himself to calm down.
"Get out of my way!"
Bai Wanwan stared at him in astonishment, her steps faltering.
"Brother Jingcheng...it's me, Qianqian...don't you recognize me?"
How could you push me away? Have you forgotten your promise to me?
flourishing…
In his mind, Bai Qianqian's pale and fragile face appeared, filled with sorrow and reluctance...
But the next second, the face continued to fade away until it disappeared completely.
Lin Wei stood there, calling his name over and over again.
"Well…"
Gu Jingcheng clutched his head, which felt like it was about to explode, and abruptly rolled off the bed.
He stumbled toward the door with unsteady steps.
"Brother Jingcheng!"
Bai Wanwan chased after him unwillingly.
Gu Jingcheng paused, but did not turn around.
"Stop wearing her clothes and talking like her... Bai Wanwan, stay away from me!"
After saying that, he staggered down the stairs and rushed straight out of the Bai family villa.
A cold wind blows, and my mind becomes clear.
He hailed a taxi and gave Lin Wei's address.
Lin Wei held her phone, her face completely drained of color.
Gu Jingcheng's gentle call pierced her heart.
The wound on my heart, which was slowly healing, was reopened.
Blood dripped freely.
She felt as if all the sounds in the world had disappeared.
Who is Bai Qianqian?
The name he called out so affectionately and painfully,
Such a heavy apology...
What happened between them?
Is it a love that is unforgettable?
A sense of betrayal haunted her.
Her heart felt like it had been thrown into an ice cellar, freezing her until she was stiff and numb.
But... it's as if my fingers have their own consciousness.
Clutching the phone to my ear, I couldn't bear to press the hang-up button.
Lin Wei listened to the faint, soft calls of a woman coming from the other end of the phone, almost as if in self-torture.
His suppressed breathing...
Until he left that place and got into a taxi.
Lin Wei lowered her arm, looking dejected.
The phone slipped from her fingers.
It fell onto the soft carpet with a dull thud.
She walked down the stairs like a lost soul, pushed open the door, and
Walking into the courtyard, looking at the road outside the gate,
My mind went blank.
