Chapter 2397 Don’t turn on the light…
Lin Ke looked at him in great surprise: "Since you and Chen Xiaofeng got married, you haven't..."
"No." He replied coldly.
She seemed to have something else to say, but in the end she said nothing.
Just like that, Gu Changhai sent Lin Ke back to her room, put her on the bed properly, and then returned to his suite.
How will Lin Ke respond? Will she agree to him?
Gu Changhai had no idea.
He just lay in bed, tossing and turning. The moon was almost setting, but he still couldn't sleep at all.
This night seemed particularly long to him...
Until he heard the door of the suite opposite open.
Lin Ke got up, maybe she was hungry and wanted to have some midnight snack?
But there was no sound of her footsteps leaving the corridor.
After listening carefully for a while, he could hear her pacing back and forth at his door. The limping sound was very recognizable and there was no doubt about it.
Your feet are injured, why are you still strolling?
Gu Changhai was about to get angry when he suddenly realized that she was lingering at his door, hesitating whether to come in!
Thinking of this, Gu Changhai hurriedly said: "The door is not locked, come in if you want."
At times like this, you need to give her a push.
He didn't want that, so she hesitated for a long time and turned back.
Lin Ke walked into his suite and came to his bedroom.
Gu Changhai sat up and leaned against the headboard. Just as he was about to turn on the light, he heard her say, "Don't turn on the light yet."
Gu Changhai withdrew his hand and stared at the woman in front of him in the dim room.
Lin Ke came to his bedside and stopped.
The moonlight cast a faint light on her body, revealing her slender outline, making him feel as if he saw her twenty years ago.
Gu Changhai also knew why she didn't let him turn on the light. She was wearing very little, seemingly only a nightgown...
He suppressed his already throbbing heart and said calmly, "Have you thought about it?"
"Um."
The two stared at each other in the dark. After a few seconds, Gu Changhai reached out and pulled her into his arms.
Lin Ke lay on her back on the bed, her hands on his chest: "I haven't answered you yet. Didn't you say that you wouldn't touch me before I answer?"
He stared deeply at Lin Ke, his hand falling on the thin strap on her shoulder.
"Come to see me dressed like this, and if I still don't know your answer, I'd be quite obtuse."
As he spoke, his hand slid to her waist.
Lin Ke held his hand: "I have three conditions."
Gu Changhai was stunned for a moment, "Tell me about it."
"First, we won't get married, and we won't study together after death."
Gu Changhai sighed, "Okay."
This condition was not a difficult matter for him.
Having lived for half his life, he no longer cared much about that piece of paper, and he cared even less about what would happen after his death.
He also fully understood Lin Ke's intention in doing this.
The biggest hurdle in her heart is her sister. After Wanqing passed away, Lin Ke would rather watch Chen Xiaofeng take over the Gu family than express her feelings and compete for it, because she did not want to replace her sister. Perhaps occupying her sister's former position would make her feel uneasy.
In fact, Gu Changhai also felt ashamed.
Not to mention marrying another woman, just the fact of being alive made him feel ashamed.
But people are selfish after all. Now, he only wants to reconcile with his past self and looks forward to starting a new life. He hopes that when he is lonely, there will be someone to talk to and have a small quarrel without hurting each other's feelings.
I also long for someone to warm my body in this lonely and unbearable night...
"What about the second condition? Go on." He waited anxiously.
Lin Ke said: "Our relationship cannot be disclosed to anyone."
Gu Changhai doesn't need to share this happiness with others, but...
"Can't our daughter tell either?"
"cannot."
"I haven't heard her call me dad..."
"If you don't agree to us, then forget it." She said and was about to get up.
Anyway, once she makes up her mind, there is no room for negotiation. This has always been her temper.
Gu Changhai was at a loss for what to do with her. He quickly held her shoulders and said helplessly, "I promise you. What about the third one?"
She stared into his eyes and said seriously, "Never tell me you love me, and never fall in love with me."
Her eyes were particularly stubborn, and this stubbornness made Gu Changhai feel distressed.
He sighed, "Will this make you feel better?"
"Do you agree or not?"
"I promise you," Gu Changhai looked at her deeply and said, "I don't love you, and I will never fall in love with you."
Anyone would be sad to hear such words, but she smiled.
This is also the most ridiculous love talk Gu Changhai has ever said...
"Is it okay now?" Gu Changhai asked.
Lin Ke hugged his shoulders tightly, "It's okay..."
The moon sank below the sea level and the east was gradually turning brighter.
In this gray world before dawn, drifting on the deserted sea, they forgot time, forgot the past, and cast aside their uneasy conscience. They hugged each other tightly as if it was the first time, and then caressed and kissed awkwardly, like young boys and girls getting their first taste of love.
When the sun rose high, the sea breeze blew open the gauze curtains, and the dazzling sunlight woke up the two tired people.
Gu Changhai was sitting on the bed getting dressed, while Lin Ke was lying lazily on the bed, staring straight at him with a half-smile in her eyes.
She has a little bit of the crazyness of a little girl, but more of the charm of a mature woman.
But in his memory, Lin Ke rarely smiled at him, and never looked at him with such eyes. Instead, she often got on his nerves.
She's really good at hiding it.
"You finally dare to look at me like this?"
She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at his body, "You've taken good care of yourself."
Gu Changhai cleared his throat and said, "You're not bad either."
She sat up wrapped in the quilt and moved closer to him, "Um...you and Chen Xiaofeng really haven't had a single experience?"
"No."
"hiss……"
"You hope I have it?" Gu Changhai buttoned his shirt.
"I want to know how you managed to survive all these years?"
Gu Changhai glanced at her and said, "How did you get through it? I got through it the same way."
She glared at him, lay back down, and finally stopped teasing him.
"Sleep a little longer?"
She nodded with her eyes closed, then suddenly opened them again: "Where are we now?"
"It's about a two-hour flight from Haicheng."
She frowned: "Aren't we going to South City?"
"We were ordered to return last night."
"You never wanted to send me to South City! What if I didn't agree to it?"
"Then we'll never reach the shore."
Lin Ke was so angry that she picked up a pillow and threw it at him.
Gu Changhai dodged her pillow, and she wanted to attack him again, when his cell phone rang.
He glanced at the screen and said to Lin Ke, "It's the old lady calling. I'll answer the phone first."
Lin Ke quickly fell silent, and Gu Changhai went outside the bedroom to answer the phone.
It's not that I can't let Lin Ke hear it, but looking at her lying on the bed, I really don't know how to answer the old lady's call. I always feel guilty...
