Li Tian walked very quickly, leaving only two business cards when he left.
But the peaceful ward was thrown into chaos because of her appearance.
Old Master Li said nothing, staring at his granddaughter with great distress. Although the Gu family was a good family with strong capabilities, it was also because of this that many people were eyeing them, and there were flowers, plants, and even beautiful women, and they would never stop. He was now relying on the Gu family, and had no way to support Li Xiujun.
Old Master Gu stood up and said apologetically to Li Xiujun, "Xiujun, we don't know what Teacher Li means by this. Anyway, I'll treat you to a meal, and everything will be settled."
"I won't let this person come and bother you again."
"That's your teacher. We shouldn't make things too embarrassing."
Li Xiujun understood Mr. Gu. It was not easy for him to support the family. Now it was just a meal, and she would not make a fuss.
Gu Qingming, on the other hand, disagreed. "We've severed ties with Li Tian for ten years, and his actions today were clearly very offensive. Didn't he realize this was a hospital ward?"
"He comes here to please you with schemes, old man. Do you dare to keep a person like this around you?"
People who do business always have sharp eyes and can see a person's character at a glance.
That Li Tian is clearly not someone to be trifled with.
Mr. Gu understood this, but he also had his own reasons. "The Li Tian family helped us with investment back then. Although it was only a small amount, it really helped the Gu family."
"In that era, if you survived and were helped, you should be remembered."
"Qingming, it's just a meal, how come you can't even learn Xiujun's generosity."
Gu Qingming's brows darkened slightly. "I won't be attending that day, and Xiujun won't be attending either. I hope you understand."
He didn't want Li Xiujun to suffer any injustice.
Old Master Gu slammed the table and said, "You must show up, Xiujun must show up too. Since you don't want that person to get close to you, then do your best for me. You two are husband and wife, let others see it."
"I'll find another reason and invite a few more friends over. That should be fine, right?" Old Master Gu said to Gu Qingming in a negotiating tone.
Li Xiujun pulled Gu Qingming's arm and said, "Forget it! I didn't suffer much injustice. It's just a meal."
After hearing Li Xiujun's gentle voice, Gu Qingming finally let go of his insistence.
He was forced to say, "Okay, I will be there on time that day and will not let you down."
After saying that, he pulled Li Xiujun away.
Inside the ward, Mr. Gu faced Mr. Li alone. He felt a little apologetic. "After all, this is a favor I owe to others. I should treat them to this meal. As for that girl's thoughts, I can see it. I will be careful and will not let this person disturb Xiujun."
Mr. Li knew that Mr. Gu was always a sensible person.
He waved his hand, "We've known each other for so many years! No need to explain to me."
He tapped the chessboard in front of him and asked, "Are you still going to play chess or not?"
"Next, next, next." Old Master Gu quickly sat over and the two of them returned to normal.
Gu Qingming took Li Xiujun home. The two sat in the car and didn't speak at all.
Li Xiujun silently turned her head, breaking the silence in the car. "Why aren't you saying anything? I'm the one who was wronged today, so why are you acting like you've been scolded?"
"Because you are so sensible." Gu Qingming held the steering wheel expressionlessly.
Li Xiujun curled her lips and said, "No, it's not like I've suffered any injustice."
"I'm talking about school matters." Gu Qingming suddenly slammed on the brakes and questioned Li Xiujun, "Why didn't you tell me that Li Tian is a teacher at your school?"
"I." Li Xiujun drooped her ears, feeling very aggrieved. "I don't know that person."
"That's not right." Gu Qingming shook his head. "Li Tian is a person who takes things to the extreme. If she were your teacher, I'm afraid she would be targeting more than just this kind of behavior. You haven't told me the whole story on this matter."
He didn't understand what was so wrong about this matter.
The Gu family was at its peak in the imperial capital at that time, and it would be easy to get rid of Li Tian without the old man knowing.
Li Xiujun still didn't take it seriously, "It's nothing, it's really nothing."
Gu Qingming frowned even deeper, he knew Li Xiujun was lying.
This time Gu Qingming didn't ask any more questions. He stepped on the accelerator and drove straight home.
Li Xiujun wanted to speak in the middle of the journey, but she felt the tense atmosphere in the car and finally gave up.
At night, in the bedroom, Gu Qingming took a shower and went to bed. He was covered in mist, followed by the scent of mint.
Li Xiujun likes this smell very much and smells it more every time.
But this one seemed to be ignoring her now.
Li Xiujun pursed her lips, opened her palms, and wanted to get closer to Gu Qingming.
Gu Qingming had already noticed it. He suddenly retracted his arm, thwarting Li Xiujun's plan. He glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, then pulled the quilt over Li Xiujun and said, "There's a party at home tomorrow. You should get up early and go to bed."
"I..." Li Xiujun wanted to speak, but the light in the bedroom had been turned off by Gu Qingming.
She sighed in the dark night, looked at Gu Qingming's back, and then reluctantly closed her eyes.
When she woke up the next day, what Li Xiujun saw was Gu Qingming's broad arms. She did not give up this time and squeezed herself into Gu Qingming's arms again.
Gu Qingming seemed to be aware of her presence, and he picked her up. At the same time, he quickly moved forward and bit Li Xiujun's lower lip.
At the beginning of the morning, the house was filled with murmurs again.
Perhaps something was amiss in his heart, as Gu Qingming suddenly opened his eyes. He saw Li Xiujun, who was as fragile as a delicate flower. A hint of surprise first passed through him, and then he suddenly let her go. "Don't expect me to let you go if you don't explain clearly what happened before."
He tried his best to calm himself down, but when he got out of bed and put on his clothes, he looked flustered.
Li Xiujun rubbed her lips and hissed softly. Gu Qingming bit her hard.
Her eyes were empty and lifeless. "How come even this method doesn't work?"
She put on her home clothes and prepared to go to the cupboard to pick out clothes. Li Xiujun never cared much about her clothes, so she didn't buy many clothes on a daily basis, and most of them were simple. But today was a family banquet, and the Gu family was a large family with a great reputation in the imperial capital. If she didn't dress appropriately, it would have a bad influence on Mr. Gu.
But she searched for a long time and still couldn't find the right clothes.
Fortunately, not long after, the aunt of the family came to knock on the door and said, "Madam San Shao, the Third Young Master asked me to give you a set of clothes. It's hanging at the door. If it's convenient for you, you can come out and get it."
Li Xiujun ran over with her slippers on and saw the exquisite packaging bag hanging in front of the door.
