Chapter 1143: Let’s cancel the engagement
Jin Zhengtai opened the door and walked in, "Jingxiu."
"What are you doing here?"
Gu Jingxiu glanced at him casually and said coldly, "It's very rude to enter someone else's room at night. I want to rest, please leave."
Jin Zhengtai ignored her words, pushed the door open and walked in, then closed it.
"I told you not to come in."
Gu Jingxiu looked unhappy and spoke angrily.
"Jingxiu, I was wrong, don't be angry."
Jin Zhengtai walked to the bedside and looked at the girl sitting on the bed reading a book. His tone was full of guilt, "I misunderstood you! You were right to fire Zhang Lin."
Even after he said this, Gu Jingxiu's expression did not ease at all.
Jin Zhengtai stood by the bed and looked at her as she explained solemnly, "I heard that you were dissatisfied with Zhang Lin and did not allow her to work in the store. I always felt that you were making a fuss over nothing. Casually firing employees in the store would not be conducive to the management of other employees in the future, so I quarreled with you.
Now I understand that Zhang Lin is not a good person. She came to our store with ulterior motives, not just to make money."
The more he explained himself, the more stupid he felt.
I didn't think about it that way at all.
In fact, you can't blame him. Although he looks cheerful on the surface, he is actually extremely insecure inside.
Don’t you ever think that a top student would fall in love with him?
When Gu Jingxiu heard his words, there was finally a hint of reaction on her face, and she looked up at him.
He seemed to be wondering, how could he suddenly come to his senses when he trusted Zhang Lin so much?
Jin Zhengtai met her gaze, paused, lowered his head and said weakly,
"I admit that she has that intention towards me."
When Jin Zhengtai said this, Gu Jingxiu's face turned even colder.
My heart sank.
Jin Zhengtai came to her at night and told her that another woman had that kind of intention towards him.
So, he came to be honest with her and break up with her?
"What do you want to say?"
Gu Jingxiu put his hands under the quilt and clenched them into fists.
She mustered up her courage, looked at him, and said in a cold voice, "You don't have to bring it up. I've already told our second brother and his wife. Let's cancel the engagement."
Hearing this, Jin Zhengtai was horrified, "Jingxiu, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Didn't you say that Zhang Lin is interested in you?
I'll help you, you don't have to come and say it again.
You gave my dad 900 yuan as a betrothal gift, I will give it to you tomorrow, and there will be nothing between us anymore."
Hearing this, Jin Zhengtai jumped on the bed in shock, looked at her, and said anxiously, "Jingxiu, I came here to apologize to you and explain to you, why did you bring up the cancellation of the engagement?"
Gu Jingxiu hung his face and said nothing.
Jin Zhengtai stood beside the bed, his hands on the bed, his handsome face close to her, looking at her, and said seriously, "I will never cancel the engagement with you. I will marry you in the future, and we will live together until we grow old. You are my beloved girl, how can I cancel the engagement because of a little misunderstanding?"
Gu Jingxiu looked indifferent and unmoved, "Thank you, I am not worthy of you."
"Jingxiu, don't be angry, listen to me and explain to you slowly. I really didn't understand Zhang Lin's intentions before. I can only say that she is too cunning.
Now I know that she has bad intentions and has been trying to sow discord between us. She thought she could seduce me just because she is pretty. I told her clearly that I don't like her and you are the only one in my heart."
Gu Jingxiu sneered, "So, I should feel honored?"
"Jingxiu, I didn't! You know I'm heartless and I take human nature too lightly. Zhang Lin is a student at the Drama Academy after all, a top student, and a future performing arts talent. I think highly of her and never thought of her as a scheming woman. She knows that I'm not single, but I always feel that as a college student who has received higher education, she wouldn't do anything that violates the moral bottom line, and wouldn't have improper thoughts about me like you said. So, when she told me that you were targeting her and didn't deal with her, I felt that you weren't generous enough and your mind was too small. It would be difficult for you to grow up in the future, so I was angry with you."
Gu Jingxiu sneered, "Why do you suddenly tell me this?"
"Tonight, Zhang Lin asked me out and tried to seduce me, and then I realized that your worry was correct."
When Jin Zhengtai said this, Gu Jingxiu's pupils shrank slightly and he looked at him in disbelief.
seduce…………
Zhang Lin actually seduced Jin Zhengtai!
She was so shocked and angry that her body couldn't help shaking.
Zhang Lin seduced Jin Zhengtai, and Jin Zhengtai...
Did he make a mistake and come to ask for her forgiveness?
Gu Jingxiu lowered his eyes, and his heart sank to the bottom when he thought of a certain possibility.
Jin Zhengtai grabbed her hand and explained, "She seduced me, but I didn't take the bait, so I ran away."
Gu Jingxiu, "!!!"
"Jingxiu, I really ran away and didn't let her succeed. This incident really can't be blamed on me. It's because this society is too sinister and people's hearts are too sinister."
Jin Zhengtai looked aggrieved as if he had been bullied unsuccessfully. "I never thought that some women could be so shameless."
He just tricked her into coming home and forced himself on her. This is simply... a moral fallacy.
Gu Jingxiu was also stunned by Jin Zhengtai's words.
She had already made some mental preparations, but she didn't expect the reversal to be so outrageous.
Not to mention that Jin Zhengtai couldn't believe it, she couldn't understand even more how a woman could do such a shameless thing!
But... did Kim Jong-tae really not take the bait?
Gu Jingxiu couldn't help but look at him.
Jin Zhengtai's peach-shaped eyes were full of sincerity at this moment, and she could not detect any deception in her eyes.
"Every failure is a learning experience. I will be more careful with everyone in the future."
Jin Zhengtai said sincerely, "Don't be angry. This incident is also a lesson for me. It makes me know that not every woman in this world is as honest as you."
When Jin Zhengtai said this, Gu Jingxiu lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking, and remained silent. Jin Zhengtai was anxious, "I've said so much, don't you want to say something?"
Gu Jingxiu's expression remained indifferent. "I have nothing to say. After this incident, I reflected on myself a lot. In the final analysis, there was a lack of trust between us. You thought I was being unreasonable, jealous, and narrow-minded. To be honest, this hurt me a lot."
Gu Jingxiu looked at him and said word by word, "If you could trust me more, you wouldn't be upset with me because of an outsider."
Even if he didn't realize that Zhang Lin was interested in him, she just simply didn't like Zhang Lin and didn't want her to stay in the store, right?
He is her fiancé, so can't he allow her to be a little willful?
"You go ahead, let's calm down first."
Gu Jingxiu got off the bed and opened the door for him, "I want to rest."
Gu Jingxiu had no intention of continuing the conversation. Jin Zhengtai was silent for a moment and nodded, "Okay, let's talk about it tomorrow."
When he went out, he saw Tang Min and Gu Jingqi standing on the steps outside the main hall.
