Chapter 38 Husband
Originally, Lin Youning was worried that Gu Huaichen would really ignore her and torture her before going on a business trip.
What she didn't expect was that this man had extraordinary self-control.
He just grabbed her and kissed her, then went to the bathroom, saying he would take a shower and leave.
After entering the bathroom, Lin Youning was still in the cloakroom, a little dazed. She slowed down, and when she was about to leave the cloakroom, she accidentally saw herself in the full-length mirror. There was an extra wrinkle on her cheongsam.
To be precise, more than one thread.
Yes, a lot.
Thinking of this, Lin Youning raised his hand and rubbed his cheeks, then quickly grabbed a tissue and wiped his mouth.
After a moment of silence, Lin Youning suddenly saw an open suitcase next to him.
She was silent for three seconds, then walked to the bathroom door and knocked, "Gu Huaichen."
After a long while, a man's deep voice came from inside, "Hmm?"
“…”
For some reason, Lin Youning felt his ears go numb.
"What luggage do you want to take? I can help you pack it simply." She said hesitantly.
Gu Huaichen: “No need.”
He answered her from inside, "Mrs. Gu."
"What?"
"Call me again."
Lin Youning: “?”
"Youyou." This time he didn't call her Mrs. Gu seriously.
Lin Youning's heartbeat paused, and he opened his mouth and said, "Boss Gu."
"That's wrong."
"Gu Huaichen."
"Well, what else?"
Lin Youning: "Huai Chen?"
In the bathroom, Gu Huaichen's Adam's apple rolled, and his voice became hoarse, "Mrs. Gu."
Lin Youning's lips moved, and she managed to utter, "Husband."
“…”
After a while, when Gu Huaichen came out of the bathroom, Lin Youning ignored him and hid herself under the quilt in her cheongsam.
Gu Huaichen curled the corners of his lips slightly, but he was not in a hurry to find her.
After he asked Aunt Yang to go upstairs and pack her luggage and prepare to leave, he went to look for the person who was pretending to be asleep.
"Mrs. Gu."
The quilt was lifted, and Lin Youning covered her face and said, "What are you doing?"
Gu Huaichen pulled her hand away, squinting his eyes and said, "Let's go. If you need anything, go find Uncle Li."
Hearing this, Lin Youning said, "Oh," and looked at him and said, "Then...be careful."
Gu Huaichen: “Yeah.”
They were not a loving couple, and there was no reluctance to part before they parted.
After responding, Gu Huaichen left.
Lin Youning hesitated for a moment, but finally got up and went downstairs. She watched him get into the car and then leave into the night.
After the person left, Lin Youning's sense of loss intensified.
She stood there for a while before slowly going upstairs to wash up and prepare to rest.
While taking a shower, the bathroom seemed to still linger with the scent of Gu Huaichen, which was cold and gloomy. Lin Youning felt inexplicably annoyed.
After taking a shower and coming out of the bathroom, Lin Youning was no longer sleepy.
While taking a shower, Aunt Yang went upstairs to change the bed sheets. Lying on the soft and fragrant sheets, Lin Youning picked up his cell phone.
There are messages from Su Ran and several plastic sisters in the mobile phone.
The content of the messages from several people was basically the same. They just asked her whether she had attended the charity auction with Gu Huaichen tonight, and heard that Gu Huaichen had bought her a hairpin worth more than 20 million yuan and that Gu Huaichen doted on her very much.
Lin Youning ignored other people's messages and replied to Su Ran: [Why are you so gossipy?]
Su Ran: [? ? ? ]
Su Ran: [I am a gossipy person.]
Su Ran: [Do you know that when this news spread tonight, I was playing with Mu Yueling and the others. When she heard it, her face turned green.]
Lin Youning: [Why don’t you take a photo? ]
Su Ran: [? ]
Lin Youning: [I'm curious about why her face is green.]
Su Ran: [You are so bad. ]
Lin Youning: [Don’t you just like me to be bad? ]
Su Ran: […If your husband knew what you said, he would give me trouble.]
Lin Youning: [No.]
Su Ran: [Why?]
Lin Youning: [He is on a business trip.]
Su Ran: […Why do I sense a hint of disappointment in your words?]
Lin Youning: [Do I have it? ]
Su Ran: [It’s very obvious. 】
Seeing this, Lin Youning couldn't help but reflect, did she have it? She thought she didn't.
After chatting with Su Ran for a while, Lin Youning thought of someone: [By the way, do you know how many families with the surname Zhao there are in the circle? ]
Su Ran: [How do you say that?]
Lin Youning: [At the auction tonight, I had my eyes on a pearl necklace, but Mr. Zhao, who had greeted Gu Huaichen, snatched it from us. In the end, he won the deal and even came over to tease us.]
Su Ran: [Who is so brave? ]
Lin Youning: [Didn’t I ask you to help me find out? ]
Su Ran: [Just one message from President Zhao? ]
Lin Youning: [In her thirties, but not quite forty.]
Su Ran: [No more?]
Lin Youning: [Yes.]
Su Ran was speechless, but she was free and happy to do this.
After thinking for a moment, Su Ran reluctantly agreed to her: "I'll ask for you."
Lin Youning: [Thank you, Sister Su Ran.]
Su Ran: [Don't hate me. ]
Su Ran is indeed a few months older than Lin Youning, and she is really her elder sister.
Hearing Su Ran's words, Lin Youning curled her lips silently.
After finishing the conversation with Su Ran, Lin Youning put down his phone and prepared to go to bed.
After closing my eyes, I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
Thinking about what Gu Huaichen did tonight, Lin Youning felt a little confused.
The struggle lasted until two o'clock in the morning, when Lin Youning finally fell asleep due to sleepiness.
After Gu Huaichen went on a business trip, Lin Youning's life became free. Of course, she was free before, but she was tired at night.
Every afternoon, Lin Youning went to the dance studio to find Zhao Fu. The two of them practiced dancing together, and occasionally asked Duan Yingzhen and Su Ran to go out for a walk.
During this period, Lin Youning also went to Wen Ci's studio and returned the hairpin to her.
When she returned the hairpin, she remembered what Gu Huaichen had said at that time, and asked curiously, "Ci Ci, is there any story behind this hairpin of yours?"
She could see that the hairpin was very expensive.
Wen Ci was startled, "Did you see it?"
"Then I don't have that kind of vision." Lin Youning was very honest, "Gu Huaichen took a look and said that my hairpin is very special."
Wen Ci raised her eyebrows: "So you asked me what story I have?"
Lin Youning nodded.
"I guess so." Wen Ci told her, "My grandmother gave it to me."
Lin Youning suddenly realized, and smiled, "Very beautiful."
"I heard that President Gu bought you a more beautiful hairpin." Wen Ci looked at her, "It seems that President Gu treats you well."
Lin Youning: “…No way.”
She glanced at her and said, "It's just so-so."
Wen Ci chuckled, "Is it really just average?"
She teased her deliberately, "How does it compare to Jian Cheng?"
"Then don't use Jian Cheng to insult him." Lin Youning was still very protective.
Although Lin Youning and Gu Huaichen were just a couple who worked together for mutual benefit and had no feelings for each other, in Lin Youning's heart, Jian Cheng was not even as good as Gu Huaichen.
