Chapter 162 Generous Girlfriend VS Poor Boyfriend 18
The room suddenly fell silent.
Gu Xingyuan didn't speak for a moment; his hand was still stroking her hair, a slow and gentle motion.
"Why isn't it enough? Isn't this a lot of money?" he asked.
Jiang Zhiyi nestled against his chest, her voice clear and melodious: "If it were before, that would have been enough, but things are different now. Since you've already accepted it, why don't you take a little more? It's really strange, Gu Xingyuan, why are you so foolish?"
Gu Xingyuan: "That's not my money."
Jiang Zhiyi said dismissively, "But that's your father's money, so it's yours now. Just like my dad, he said that all of our family's assets would go to me."
Gu Xingyuan recalled that Jiang Zhiyi usually spent money like water.
On several occasions, he was curious about where her money came from, because some of her expenses were clearly beyond what her salary and the allowance her father gave her combined could afford.
Later, he overheard her on the phone asking her father for money, in a pitiful tone, "Dad, I'm out of money. My clothes have two holes in them, and now I can only share a bowl of rice with someone else..."
It seems that Jiang Zhenren really dotes on her, which is why he covered those huge expenses for her.
Jiang Zhiyi hugged him tightly and said, "If you don't want to, then I'll give the card back to you."
"Actually, I know all this. This is what you're saving for your future wife. We're just boyfriend and girlfriend now. I have no right to touch your money, and I have no right to make decisions for you."
“That’s not what I meant.” Gu Xingyuan frowned.
“We’re not close enough to be inseparable yet. I just habitually rely on you… I’ll change that in the future. I won’t spend your money.”
"Why are you thinking so much? I haven't said anything. I just hope we can proceed according to the normal plan." His voice was very gentle.
"But I don't want that. The circumstances are different now. If you could afford to buy our child a can of formula that costs 20,000 yuan, would you buy him those discounted clearance items online?"
Gu Xingyuan noticed another point in her words and asked, "So you were planning to buy discounted milk powder for your child online?"
No wonder when they were playing a family simulation game, Jiang Zhiyi only allocated a small amount of money to this type of expense.
“That’s not the point!” she said.
Gu Xingyuan: "Let's go to sleep first."
He was still struggling with his own thoughts. He knew very well that today's events were just the beginning. Gu Conghui certainly didn't just want to give him a sum of money; he still needed to think carefully about what to do next.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Zhiyi woke Gu Xingyuan up.
"What's wrong?" He was too sleepy to open his eyes.
“I just had a nightmare…” her voice trembled with tears. “I dreamt that you wanted to break up with me, that you were tired of me, and that you found a gentler and prettier girlfriend. You even talked badly about me to other people.”
"No, this is a dream, it's all fake. I was worried that you'd get tired of me and then abandon me."
Gu Xingyuan has learned to be smarter now. Whenever he encounters a question about death, he throws the question back at her in the same way, so that she won't keep asking.
"I won't get tired of you, I only love you," she said sweetly, as if she were being affectionate.
"I only love you, baby." Gu Xingyuan was so sleepy that he could only reply subconsciously.
"If I want to buy something very expensive, are you willing to spend the money to buy it for me?"
"Of course I'm willing to buy it for you," he said.
"It's so kind of you."
...
The next day, Jiang Zhiyi took Gu Xingyuan out.
After returning home, Gu Xingyuan looked at the bag worth 500,000 yuan on the sofa without saying a word. Then he went into his study and contacted Gu Conghui.
After that, Gu Xingyuan quit his job.
Gu Conghui valued him highly, taking him along to every occasion and showing him great care. He taught him many things step by step without holding anything back.
Sometimes, they really do seem like a father and son with a deep bond. However, they tacitly keep quiet about certain people and matters.
Gu Xingyuan's card balance is increasing.
Many times, when he looked at those numbers, he felt a little dazed, as if it were unreal, as if he were manipulating game coins.
He can easily make a lot of money, or he can lose more than half of it in just two days.
But compared to the days when he worked overtime night after night for a meager overtime pay, making money is now so much easier for him.
Sure enough, money can make money.
...
That morning, he took some time to visit Wang Hongling.
Wang Hongling still lives in the same place. According to her, she doesn't want to hear any news related to Gu Conghui, nor does she want to have anything to do with him. She just wants the two of them to stay out of each other's way and never see each other again.
As soon as Gu Xingyuan entered the room, he saw Chen Feifei sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Chen Feifei stood up immediately upon seeing him.
She later messaged him and found that he had deleted her as a friend, which she now finds quite embarrassing.
Wang Hongling: "Hey, Xingyuan, you're here? Perfect timing, Mom's phone died. Feifei paid for me at the market, could you transfer the money to her for me?"
Chen Feifei: "It's okay, Auntie, I'll go now. You can give it to me next time."
"I'll give it to you now. My memory isn't very good, and I'll forget next time. Xingyuan, please pass it on to her quickly."
Gu Xingyuan showed no sign of abnormality. He asked, "Alipay?"
Chen Feifei nodded.
...
That evening, Jiang Zhiyi checked her phone as usual, then looked at him without saying a word.
Gu Xingyuan felt a sense of relief.
She's been checking up on him a lot lately, and we've almost argued about it several times, but it seems like there won't be any problems today.
He actually had a lot of headaches. He didn't want to argue with her, and he felt terrible every time they had a conflict.
Moreover, he always felt that every time they argued, it eroded a part of her feelings for him, which was really unbearable.
“Baby…” He leaned in and kissed her.
Jiang Zhiyi threw his phone on the ground.
A loud noise came from the floor, and the phone screen instantly cracked into countless fissures. He felt as if his heart had been jolted.
"Gu Xingyuan, you disgust me."
