Chapter 648: Seven Fiancées Killed
"Take a look and see if it fits. Tomorrow...tomorrow I'll go to the hotel to get you clothes."
Li Nanli stood up from the closet. He was still wearing the off-white sweatshirt. He looked very natural before, but when Fu Zhi took the white shirt from him, he felt a little embarrassed.
A patch of red spread from the tip of the ear to the neck. His eyes swept across the girl's fair and slightly pink fingertips and fell on the white shirt she was clenching.
The itchy feeling in his throat made the man roll his Adam's apple unconsciously. He grabbed the corner of Fu Zhi's clothes with one hand and said, "Go to the door on the right, go take a shower first." Thinking of the white shirt he had worn being stained with the scent of the little girl... his heart couldn't help but beat faster. He glanced past the girl's clear almond eyes and quickly turned his eyes away, not daring to look closely.
The little girl nodded.
"I put water in for you."
"Yeah." Fu Zhi held the white shirt in his arms and looked at the length of the shirt. "Do you have cropped pants?"
She made a rough estimate of the length of her legs.
Well, it’s a bit shorter than her boyfriend, and not as long as her older brother Lu Yumo.
"In the closet, I'll look for it for you." Li Nanli bent down and stepped on the black plush carpet to help the little girl turn up her pants.
Fu Zhi looked at the time and saw that it was already very late, so he called him, "Li Nanli."
He stopped what he was doing and turned to look at her, "What's wrong?"
"I want to take a shower now," Fu Zhi was a little sleepy and didn't want to waste any more time on this matter. She asked Li Nanli for his opinion, "Can you bring me some pants later?"
In a moment, I will give you pants.
This kind of private matter...
Her tone was very cold, as if she was talking about a trivial and mundane matter, but to Li Nanli's ears, it was like a huge rock thrown into the lake, rippling the waves. The sea water swept across his heart one after another, making his heart beat like a drum and his heart fluttering.
He coughed, not wanting the little girl to notice his gaffe.
He stood up, took the water cup on the table, took a sip, and under Fu Zhi's confused gaze, he endured and restrained himself, and murmured "hmm" in a low voice.
"Then, go wash first." As he said this, his heart felt itchy and numb, and a fire that could not be extinguished rose up.
"Yeah!" Fu Zhi had no idea what he was thinking. She held the white shirt and pushed open the door.
The rustling sound of clothes seemed to ring in his ears. The milky scent of the room where the girl had stayed was wrapped in an extremely aggressive minty aroma and penetrated into his nose.
Li Nanli felt a little tormented.
Soon, he heard the sound of water falling from the shower head, accompanied by his suppressed sigh.
He glanced at the roof, and the bright light pierced his eyes, making his eyes a little moist.
He was no longer as cold and distant as before. The fire in his heart could not be extinguished no matter what. He pulled the corner of his mouth sarcastically and muttered, "Serves you right."
The sound of water falling from the shower lasted for a long time.
Li Nanli remembered that he filled the bathtub with water for Fu Zhi, and perhaps the little girl felt uncomfortable using it, so he turned on the shower.
Thinking of this, before his thoughts were clear, he turned to the black cropped pants and lazily put them on his arm. He took a sip of water, and the heat in his chest seemed to dissipate a little. He knocked on the bathroom door and asked her in a cold voice, "Fu Zhi, how long do you want to take a shower?"
The sound of water falling from the shower stopped for a moment.
Li Nanli instinctively turned sideways to look. The door of the shower room was made of wood, with only a frosted glass about twenty centimeters wide at a height of half a meter. Mist condensed on the cold glass, and water droplets kept falling along the glass, leaving clear scratches. Through the scratches and the dazzling light, the slender figure of the girl could be vaguely seen.
Li Nanli's good upbringing made him look away and he dared not look again.
"Half an hour," she said.
That wouldn't take long, so he could continue waiting for her in the room.
The sound of falling into the water became clear again.
Li Nanli sat on the edge of the bed and fiddled with the messages on his phone.
The scene where Fu Zhi said her heartbeat was too fast kept flashing through her mind.
The corners of Li Nanli's mouth lifted unconsciously, and the deer in his heart kept jumping around.
He thought with some joy that although the girl was tricked by him into falling in love, she was half fond of him now, which was why she came forward unreservedly and kissed him secretly.
Li Nanli felt that he had never been as happy as today. He was in a good mood and wanted to run around the parking lot twice. It was like when he was young, he saw a boy in his class had a crush on a girl, and he successfully confessed his love with a sour poem and ran excitedly around the playground all night.
The behavior that I used to look down upon and disdain seems to have changed a little today.
He pressed his heart, feeling a burning heat that he could not relieve, clamoring for him to open the door and go for a run.
It takes Fu Zhi half an hour to take a bath.
So he wanted to go out and run... No!
The idea had only just sprouted when he suppressed it with one hand.
He felt a little ashamed and thought that the boy was really crazy. He didn't want to learn anything else, but chose to learn some incomprehensible and stupid behaviors.
He tugged at the straps of his sweatshirt in annoyance, his fingertips accidentally touching the skin on his face, and he noticed that his face was also very hot, and even the delicate white skin that was exposed was slightly pink.
The air conditioner in the room kept blowing, it was hot and stuffy, and made people feel inexplicably dry and thirsty.
Li Nanli took the remote control and was about to adjust the temperature, but then he put it down again, thinking that Fu Zhi might be cold.
"Gu Yanqi." He leaned against the bed for a long time, then picked up his phone out of boredom, swiped his fingertips across the screen, and sent messages one by one, "Has your girlfriend ever told you that her heartbeat gets faster when she's with you?"
"After your heartbeat gets faster, what do you think the next step for a boyfriend or girlfriend is?"
"I think my girlfriend is madly in love with me now."
He spoke in voice, not very high.
The soundproofing in the Li family's room was not bad to begin with. Several messages were sent out amid the sound of water and soon reached Gu Yanqi's mobile phone.
It's almost two in the morning.
Gu Yanqi had just finished taking a shower and was sitting in front of the bed, watching the stock price with his computer.
The incident involving Fu Zhi had caused too much trouble. As for his uncle, he no longer had the throne that supported his ambitions. The two elders in the Gu family started threatening to jump off the building again, and things were not going peacefully.
Gu Hao hurried over to deal with it with a tough attitude. He didn't know what the two elders of the Gu family had to say. Just as he was waiting to hear the news, he saw several voice messages sent by Li Nanli.
He treated it as if something big had happened and pointed it out one by one.
As a result, the more I listened to the end, the colder and more numb my heart became.
Maybe some people are just like this. When you are most tired, they can always give you a fatal blow with sweet love.
He replied expressionlessly, "Others may not know about my girlfriend's affairs, but don't you know about it?"
Li Nanli felt that he should know it, but at this moment, he was obviously more concerned about him and Fu Zhi. The sound of water in the bathroom stirred his heart and made his thoughts very confused.
He casually sent a "?".
He said confidently, "I forgot, but you can first listen to what happened between me and Fu Zhi tonight and help me analyze the next step to take."
Gu Yanqi just thought that Li Nanli really wanted to find someone to analyze the matter.
But he really felt that he was not worthy of analyzing with Li Nanli, and advised him, "I actually don't have much experience."
He recounted his love history, "Don't you know? I have a childhood sweetheart that was arranged by both my parents. When she was in her mother's belly, it was said that she was abused at home, so my mother-in-law had an accidental miscarriage and aborted my childhood sweetheart."
"Later, when I was in middle school, my dad had some spare money. He was afraid that Xiao Qingmei's incident would become a shadow on my life, so he arranged another marriage for me. On the way to meet the girl, she was hit and killed by a drunk driver."
"Later, I became pure-hearted and devoted myself to Buddhism. As a result, my father found another marriage for me while I was in college. The woman was three years older than me and was a domineering boss. As a result, her company went bankrupt and she jumped off the building after being burdened with huge debts."
Gu Yanqi has been engaged in about seven marriages in his life.
The women all died for various reasons.
Really, Gu Yanqi sighed, "My dad is really unlucky. As soon as he found a fiancée for me, she died. I really don't have much chance to fall in love with my so-called girlfriend."
Li Nanli: “…”
In fact, Li Nanli doesn’t really care how tough Gu Yanqi’s life is.
He just wanted to talk to Gu Yanqi about him and Fu Zhi, but he didn't expect to be talked about in return.
He felt a little regretful and thought that he should go to the employee group and talk to the employees first about what he and Fu Zhi should do next.
However, since he had already talked to Gu Yanqi to this point, he didn't plan to go far away.
Even though Gu Yanqi is not an easy person to get along with.
He insisted: "None of this matters. Your relationship history doesn't matter."
Li Nanli only wanted to talk about how Fu Zhi kissed him today. He vividly described the scene that happened half an hour ago.
Tong Gu Yanqi said: "You are such a young girl, but you are so open. I guess it's because I am usually too reserved."
"I think I should be more open-minded and let go of those Taoist rituals and laws. What do you think?"
Gu Yanqi: “…”
Gu Yanqi recalled the way Li Nanli pinched Fu Zhi's waist and kissed her like crazy regardless of the occasion, and thought that Li Nanli was really good at making up stories.
This is what happens when you are too reserved. If you are not reserved, won’t you have to take off all your clothes and give yourself to Fu Zhi as a gift?
Gu Yanqi knew that he couldn't go against Li Nanli at this time, so he responded casually with a "yes".
Li Nanli became more energetic, "I plan to take my Zhizhi out on a date tomorrow."
He said, "I watched other couples go to the movies, holding hands, kissing, drinking a cup of milk tea, and eating a bucket of popcorn in the theater. I decided that I must take Zhizhi to experience it tomorrow."
"I used to think Zhizhi didn't care about this kind of thing, but I realized today that she clearly cares a lot but is too embarrassed to say it."
Gu Yanqi: “…”
Are you sure Fu Zhi is not a food guardian? You and she use the same thing for everything. Won't she think you're stealing food from her and get so angry that she breaks up with you on the spot?
Li Nanli was very sure, "I know my girlfriend. In her heart, I am so much more precious than her milk tea."
Gu Yanqi: “…Okay.”
Li Nanli had already said this, so Gu Yanqi wanted to ask him, "Now that you have thought it through so clearly, do you still want me to give you any advice?"
Li Nanli taunted, "You've been single for thousands of years, so how can you give me advice?"
Gu Yanqi: “???”
Didn't you ask me to give you some advice?
Or are you just trying to be nice to me under the guise of making suggestions?
Are you this kind of person?
Li Nanli is indeed such a person. After he finished arguing with Gu Yanqi, he posted a circle of friends overnight to record his feelings.
It was accompanied by a photo of his profile, with the photo deliberately moved closer to his lips.
I originally wanted to write a paragraph to go with it, but after thinking for a long time, I was a little at a loss for words.
Instead, WeChat intelligently popped up a love message: "I wanted to harvest a ray of spring breeze, but you gave me the whole spring. I wanted to kiss a snowflake, but you gave me the whole silver world..."
Li Nanli really felt that this love talk was quite appropriate for the situation, so he saved, edited and sent it on the spot.
How many employees working in companies today are not night owls?
I was stunned when I saw the non-mainstream love words in Li Nanli’s circle of friends.
But the next second, their good self-restraint made them close their eyes and praise:
——[Reading this wonderful article in the early hours of the morning, I was amazed at first, but after a careful reading, I was left with an endless aftertaste! We ordinary people toss and turn, unable to sleep at night. I can't help but praise Mr. Li for his brilliant writing skills. He is truly a genius! 】
——[When I woke up in the middle of the night, I recalled the words of the ancient sage: the grace of giving birth is not as great as the grace of raising a child. My pillow was wet with tears. Thinking of Mr. Li’s support and help over the years, I felt a lot of emotion. I couldn’t help but say from the bottom of my heart that we will never forget Mr. Li’s great kindness! 】
…
Li Nanli: “…”
Li Nanli took a quick glance and found that there was not a single sentence in it that he liked.
He lost interest for a moment and threw his phone to the bed.
Fu Zhi was not slow in taking a shower. He said it took half an hour, but in fact it only took about fifteen or sixteen minutes. He blew his hair, and when his hair was half dry, he unplugged the hair dryer.
The buzzing sound stopped.
She opened the door a crack and called out from inside, "Li Nanli, have you found the pants I was wearing?"
Her tone was still cold, but she no longer felt the uneasiness she had when she kissed him.
The sound of the door closing fell clearly into Li Nanli's ears.
The man subconsciously tightened his fingertips, and then his Adam's apple rolled heavily, "Hmm."
Before the last word even finished, the person in the bathroom stretched out his arm defenselessly.
There were still water drops on the pink fingertips. Fu Zhi shook it gently and said, "Then pass it to me."
Li Nanli pinched his fingertips, put his pants on his arms, and walked forward.
The bathroom was filled with mist and the door was opened a not-so-small gap.
Just like he had asked Fu Zhi to pass him clothes before, the little girl stretched out her hand and asked him to help pass her a pair of black pants.
Li Nanli walked forward uncomfortably. Perhaps because of the hot air, a light pink color appeared on the girl's porcelain-white skin. With a casual glance, he saw that she was wearing a white shirt with her sleeves loosely rolled up in two pieces. The top button was not buttoned, revealing her swan neck and delicate collarbone.
