Chapter 53 Make peace with you

Gu Mian felt a little bit reluctant.

She didn't answer, but raised her head and kissed him.

He moved gently, as if he was afraid of hurting her, but Gu Mian was still tortured badly.

Li Tingshen didn’t wear a condom...there was no such thing at home.

The next morning, he came out of the bathroom after washing up and saw Gu Mian taking birth control pills.

Li Tingshen's expression was slightly solemn, but he didn't say anything.

They got along very well these two days. Although they had less sex, Gu Mian was no longer as cold to him as before. She wasn't warm to him, but it was much better than before.

Li Ting thought deeply that it wouldn't be long before she would be willing to have a child.

Maybe after having a child, her mentality will change and she will love him as before.

He doesn't like children, but if everything could go back to the way it was, he wouldn't mind having one with Gu Mian.

......

The next day.

On the way to work, Gu Mian thought of his uncle's words.

"By the way, why did you give your uncle a store again? He doesn't need so much."

Li Tingshen was reading an email and said casually, "This is what he deserves. It's my compensation to grandma."

Although Gu Mian didn't want to accept it, he didn't refuse it in the end. "He accepted the store temporarily, but he refused to turn the hot pot restaurant into a chain. He said he was not that kind of person."

"Everyone has their own aspirations. I won't force him. Tell him. If you need anything in the future, just tell me."

"Um."

Li Tingshen turned his head and glanced at her, "Didn't your uncle tell you anything else?"

"no."

Gu Mian feels a little guilty.

Of course, she couldn't tell him what her uncle had said to reconcile them.

In fact, these few days, they seemed calm on the surface, but she was very confused inside.

She admitted that her dusty heart had begun to waver slightly.

It wasn’t entirely because of Li Tingshen’s concession that night, but more because my uncle mentioned my grandmother.

Although grandma had never met Li Ting in person, she had always liked him and said that he did not look like a bad person and was trustworthy.

Even before her death, she was still thinking about her grandson-in-law Li Tingshen.

Maybe her uncle was right, and no matter what, she should give this marriage another chance.

But she couldn't forget the pain he had brought her time and time again.

So she was extremely entangled.

The cell phone suddenly rang. It was Xiaobao calling.

Gu Mian couldn't help but smile and answered the phone.

Li Tingshen heard their conversation and waited for her to hang up before asking, "Are you going to Pei's house tonight?"

"Well, I'm Xiaobao's family doctor, and I'm going to give him a routine physical examination."

Li Ting was a little unhappy. "Didn't I send the check back to him? You don't have to go."

"He gave me the money again." Gu Mian said seriously, "And I have already promised him. Keeping one's word is the foundation of life. Xiaobao and I have a good relationship. If you don't want me to meet Mr. Pei, you don't let me meet Xiaobao, I can't do it."

Over the past few days, Li Tingshen has gotten to know her a little better.

She is actually a very principled person and her bottom line cannot be crossed.

In this matter, taking care of Xiaobao is her bottom line.

They only meet once a week. With him around, even if Pei Jianchuan is a vixen, he can't seduce Gu Mian away.

Li Tingshen compromised, "Okay, I'll pick you up after work and go with you."

"No need?"

"I said I'd accompany you."

The man's tone brooked no argument.

......

evening.

The Rolls-Royce drove into a luxury villa area and stopped outside a villa.

As soon as Gu Mian got out of the car, Xiao Bao rushed over excitedly, "Sister Gu Mian, I missed you so much!"

"I miss Xiaobao, too." Gu Mian handed him the gift box in his hand, "This is the gift I brought for you."

"Thank you, Sister Gumian." Xiaobao saw Li Tingshen standing next to her and greeted him politely, "Hello, Uncle Li."

Li Ting was very unhappy, "Why is she the elder sister and I am the uncle?"

"You are about the same age as my father, so of course he is my uncle." Xiao Bao explained seriously, "Sister Gu Mian is much younger than you and is so pretty, so she is my sister."

"......"

Li Tingshen was speechless for a moment, "Didn't your father tell you that I'm Sister Gu Mian's husband?"

"I did." Xiaobao blinked, "But when I grow up, you won't be one anymore."

"Why?"

"Because when I grow up, I can be Sister Gu Mian's husband, and you will have to leave her." Xiao Bao said seriously, "I am just temporarily handing Sister Gu Mian over to you to take care of her."

Li Tingshen raised his hand and pinched his brows.

Why is he arguing with a child?

Gu Mian laughed out loud, "Xiaobao is the cutest. Let's go inside."

"good."

Pei Jianchuan came down from the building and was quite surprised to see Li Tingshen, but he quickly put away his surprise and said to Gu Mian with a smile, "Xiaobao waited for you at the door for the whole afternoon. I told him that you wouldn't come so soon, but he just wanted to wait."

Gu Mian patted Xiao Bao's head and said, "I'll come early next week and play with you all day."

"good!"

Gu Mian examined Xiao Bao, while Pei Jianchuan took Li Tingshen to the tea room.

Li Ting looked deeply at his hands as he made tea, and said calmly, "Boss Pei's house is nice. Why didn't Qiao inform my wife and me when he moved to a new house? He should have come to congratulate us."

How could Pei Jianchuan not hear that he was asserting his sovereignty? He smiled and replied, "This house was purchased a long time ago, but it has never been lived in, so it is not considered a new home."

Li Ting raised his eyebrows deeply. "It seems that Mr. Pei likes to settle down anywhere. Is it necessary for him to settle down in the capital just for the Yin family's shares?"

"Boss Li is right. It's not that serious." Pei Jianchuan handed the cup to him. "Xiaobao's health is not very good. There are good doctors in the capital who can ensure that he is safe."

Li Tingshen took the teacup and said, "You might as well say it was directed directly at my wife."

Pei Jianchuan remained noncommittal. "Gu Mian is a good doctor, there is no doubt about that."

Li Ting took a sip of the hot tea and said, "It tastes good."

"Thank you for the compliment."

"Gu Mian is indeed a good doctor, and he likes Xiaobao very much, so he will naturally take good care of his health." Li Ting smiled deeply, "When Gu Mian and I have a child, Xiaobao can also keep him company."

Pei Jianchuan paused while holding the teacup. "Gu Mian made peace with you?"

“Soon.”

Pei Jianchuan took a sip of tea and smiled, "As far as I know, ever since Gu Mian got into trouble in Haicheng, President Li was afraid that she would hurt Yin Luoxue, so he protected Yin Luoxue very well. President Li, people should not be too greedy, and Gu Mian is definitely not the kind of person who can turn a blind eye."

"President Pei, don't worry about my affairs." Li Ting's deep eyes were full of warnings, "Just take care of yourself and don't cross the boundary between doctor and patient, that's enough."

Pei Jianchuan smiled back, "Whether it is enough depends on Mr. Li's attitude towards Gu Mian. As Gu Mian's friend, I want to tell Mr. Li that if Gu Mian chooses to continue this marriage, please cherish her. Otherwise, even if I am not there, there will be other men who will be vying for a good girl like Gu Mian."
