Chapter 229 He Linxi vs. Gu Anan (5)
During this week in Hong Kong City, He Linxi was busy with work and Gu Anan rarely saw him.
But he was still a decent person and gave her a card so that she could use it at the mall.
That day, Gu Anan went downstairs and was about to go to the mall to buy gifts for her family when suddenly a car stopped in front of her.
A bodyguard got out from the passenger seat and opened the back door.
"Miss Gu, can I talk to you?"
Chen Jiaqian, dressed in jewels, sat upright in the leather seat.
Gu Anan's face turned slightly cold: "Not interested."
Chen Jiaqian suddenly spoke: "I have investigated your background. Your father is Gu Xiao, and he runs a real estate company and a trading company."
"Your family's real estate company has encountered some difficulties recently. I wonder if your father has told you."
Gu Anan paused.
Seeing her hesitation, Chen Jiaqian smiled and said, "It's no wonder, though. The market has been bad lately, and I heard your father has a pretty large loan coming due soon, so he's under a lot of pressure."
Gu Anan remembered that her father had been going out early and coming back late recently. He seemed very busy and his face looked haggard.
Occasionally, you could hear him whispering with his mother, mentioning selling a property.
"What do you want to say?"
She asked Chen Jiaqian.
Chen Jiaqian took out a check and said, "This money is enough to solve your father's predicament. I have only one request: you break up with He Linxi and never get close to him again."
Gu Anan hesitated for a moment and said, "I can't ask for money."
Chen Jiaqian took out another contract and said, "No problem, this is a cooperation contract that can help your company out of its predicament."
Gu Anan took the contract.
"Ms. Gu is a smart person. I hope you will keep your promise."
Chen Jiaqian smiled brightly.
The car drove away, and Gu Anan held the contract, feeling a little confused.
This night was her last night in Hong Kong City.
She looked over and over the contract given by Chen Jiaqian, and always felt uncomfortable.
Before going to bed, she comforted herself: "Forget it, anyway, it's not real with He Linxi, and I can still get a contract. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"
Not long after she fell asleep, she heard some noise at the door.
The door opened and a figure walked in.
Gu Anan had just sat up when the light was suddenly turned on, and she saw clearly that the person coming was He Linxi.
He was wearing a black suit, but the buttons were unbuttoned and his tie was pulled to the side. His eyes were red and he looked particularly decadent.
"What are you doing? Get out!"
Gu Anan shouted loudly.
He Linxi sneered, walked over and pinched her chin: "Gu Anan, you are so heartless!"
A strong smell of alcohol hit my nose.
Gu Anan frowned: "He Linxi, you've drunk too much, get out."
He Linxi ignored her. He looked around and finally fixed his eyes on the contract on the table. He picked up the contract.
"What is this! Tell me, what is this!"
Gu Anan was dumbfounded and couldn't answer.
He Linxi held up the contract and sneered, "Gu An'an, it seems that in your heart, I am not even as good as a business deal."
Gu Anan's tears welled up in her eyes, and she said forcefully, "Anyway, you and I are fake, why are you so angry?"
He Linxi was stunned as if he had been hit by a club.
After a few seconds, he laughed at himself and said, "You're right, we were fake to begin with."
After saying that, he tore the contract into pieces, and the snow-white paper scattered on the floor like snowflakes.
He took out another contract from his handbag, threw it at Gu Anan, and turned away.
Gu Anan picked up the contract and found that it was also a cooperation contract with her father's company. So he had been going out early and coming back late these days, and he also helped her family negotiate cooperation?
Gu Anan pursed her lips, feeling indescribable in her heart.
The next day, Gu Anan met He Linxi at the airport. He had a cold face and ignored her.
Along the way, the two sat together without saying a word.
After returning home, Gu Anan handed the contract to her father.
Gu Xiao was very surprised: "This company is very difficult to negotiate with. Where did you get the contract?"
Gu Anan forced a smile and said, "It was He Linxi who helped negotiate it."
Gu Xiao nodded: "He is thoughtful. I will thank him someday."
Gu Anan didn't say anything and returned to the house silently.
During the Chinese New Year, Gu Anan accompanied her mother to visit relatives and was so busy that she forgot about He Linxi.
It was not until her mother and Aunt Jiang Xu called that she learned that He Linxi was ill. He stayed at home every day and was unwilling to go to the hospital. He did not even go home on New Year's Eve.
She hesitated for a whole day, bought some fruit the next day, and went to He Linxi's house.
It was the nanny who opened the door.
"Miss Gu, I'm sorry, Mr. He is sick."
Gu Anan said: "I know, I came here just to see him."
"Well, please come in."
The nanny stepped aside and invited her in.
Arriving at the bedroom, the nanny said, "He's had a fever for several days, but he refused to go to the hospital or take medicine. He just went to bed an hour ago."
"Then I'll wait for a moment, you go ahead and do your work."
Gu Anan smiled.
She sat on the sofa for a while, her eyes inevitably drawn to the closed door of the study.
As if possessed, she walked over and put her fingers on the door.
There seemed to be something inside that attracted her, making her inexplicably want to find out.
Her fingers rested lightly on the door handle and turned it, then she hesitated and let go.
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded behind me:
"Open it."
Gu Anan was startled and turned around to meet He Linxi's bloodshot but still deep black eyes.
"What's inside, and why aren't you letting people see it?"
Her heartbeat suddenly quickened.
He Linxi lowered his eyes and looked at her, his voice hoarse: "My heart."
Gu Anan frowned, very confused. She took a deep breath and turned the doorknob again.
The door opened a crack, and then the entire study gradually appeared before his eyes.
Gu Anan's eyes widened instantly and she couldn't help but walk in.
Her mouth opened wider and wider, and her eyes swept across every corner of the huge room.
All four walls, bookcases, and other flat surfaces were covered with photos.
There is only one person in the photo——
Gu Anan from childhood to adulthood.
Gu Anan didn't even know when he took these photos secretly.
The earliest photo was taken when she was in kindergarten. She was happily sliding down the slide with her two little braids flying messily.
Then it was elementary school, junior high school... until a while ago, when I saw her back wearing that pink dress when I went to Hong Kong.
In a compartment of the bookcase, there is a photo frame.
Inside was a very simple birthday card framed.
It shows a little boy and a little girl holding hands, surrounded by colorful flowers.
Gu Anan heard her mother mention that when she was in kindergarten, she gave He Linxi a hand-painted birthday card.
He actually stayed for so many years.
After seeing all this, Gu Anan was so shocked that she was speechless.
She turned and looked at He Linxi.
He Linxi's face flushed red, but his eyes were frighteningly bright. "Gu An'an, have you seen my heart?"
“You, you…”
Gu Anan retreated step by step, but He Linxi pressed on and pushed her into a corner.
He raised his hand and stroked the side of her face: "You are the first person willing to be friends with me, and now you want to abandon me, Gu Anan, no way!"
He suddenly grabbed her chin and kissed her fiercely.
Gu Anan struggled, but he was so strong that she couldn't move him at all.
Finally, Gu Anan cried, and he let her go. He held her face with a look of disappointment: "Anan, you obviously liked me when you were a child, why do you hate me so much now?"
Gu Anan glared at him: "Who told you to mock me as a fool every day!"
He Linxi looked at her deeply: "I want to put pressure on you, so that you can study hard and get into the same university as me."
Gu Anan: “…”
That's really asking too much.
"But it doesn't matter if you fail the exam. I'm in the same university as you now anyway."
The corners of his mouth curved meaningfully.
Gu Anan finally understood that everything was planned by him!
"You... you... you sinister bastard! You lunatic!"
Gu Anan racked his brains and cursed harshly.
She pushed him away and turned to walk out.
"Gu Anan!"
He Linxi called her, looking fragile, "If you leave today, don't ever come back, and we'll never meet again. If you stay, it means you agree to be with me."
Gu Anan felt that this guy was confused and what kind of crazy talk was he talking?
Just as he was about to leave, there was a bang and He Linxi fainted on the ground.
Gu Anan hurried to call the nanny, only to find that the nanny who had been there just now had left at some point.
She cursed and tried to help He Linxi up, but he turned over and pressed her under him.
"An An, you stay."
He bent down and kissed her. "This is your own choice. There is no room for regret."
Gu Anan was furious: "He Linxi, you have no moral principles, you are cheating!"
From that day on, things between He Linxi and Gu Anan became different.
When Gu Anan sees him, her heart starts beating fast for no reason.
He Linxi always looked at her with a meaningful look and pestered her for a kiss whenever he had the chance.
Gu Anan originally wanted to defend the line to the death.
But that’s He Linxi!
He Linxi, the only heir of Shengyu Group, is 1.9 meters tall, has high IQ and EQ, and is so handsome that it's deadly!
The key is that my heart and eyes are full of her.
In less than three months, Gu Anan surrendered and became his official girlfriend.
When their relationship was announced, the happiest people were Jiang Xu and Chi Xiaoli. They hugged each other and kept calling each other "mother-in-law".
Gu Anan was so embarrassed that she pulled He Linxi and ran away.
Running to the corner, He Linxi pressed her against the wall, lowered his head and kissed her fiercely until she begged for mercy in a soft voice.
"Get married after graduation, huh?"
“Hmm…ah?!”
