Su Ziqing turned to look at him.
Gong Chengjue said very seriously, "I'm not lying to you." He kissed her forehead, "I'm sorry, I startled you again."
“You apologized a lot tonight, I’m sorry,” she muttered.
Luo Jinhan and his bodyguards tactfully looked away, pretending to be deaf and blind.
Gong Chengjue knew that saying sorry would be useless, but he just felt he had to say it.
Just now, she actually risked her life to splash water on that person...
She couldn't even imagine what would happen if that person dropped the gun and started shooting at her...
If the bodyguards hadn't arrived at that moment...
If the other party thinks they can stall for another second or two...
Either way, she could be lying in a pool of blood right now.
He gently hugged her and whispered in her ear, "Promise me you'll always put yourself first, okay?"
Although he had already softened his movements, Su Ziqing still felt a little pain from being hugged, but she didn't cry out in pain. Instead, she nodded and said, "Okay."
But if there were a next time, she estimated she would still do the same thing.
She wasn't going to argue with him now.
The group left Su Ziqing's house and entered the elevator. Although Gong Chengjue was preoccupied at the moment, he still deliberately flirted with Su Ziqing to make her forget what had just happened.
"Are you sure you don't want to cooperate with me? I can take 30%, and you take 70%." Gong Chengjue said, talking about business cooperation, as if he was begging Gong Chengjue to cooperate with him.
In this world, only Su Ziqing could make him act like this.
Assistant Luo couldn't bear to watch any longer. Could Mr. Gong please consider the feelings of them, the onlookers?
Although he knew that Mr. Gong was trying to distract Miss Su by saying that, he still thought, "Don't do that."
However, Su Ziqing maintained her arrogant demeanor, saying, "No, you don't need to say anything more about this. I will not do business with you."
Give up!
"Why? It's a sure thing." Gong Chengjue didn't understand. Who wouldn't take money that was offered to them?
Su Ziqing turned her head and gave him a deep look.
Does he really want to know the reason? The reason is...
If she were to do business with him, it would be a repeat of the first time, and she would be in a very passive position whenever the two of them had any disagreements.
That outcome felt like being choked; how could she allow herself and her company to be in such a state?
Of course, she wouldn't dare say it so directly; what if he looked down on her?
Her reason was, "I'm not qualified based on my abilities." Then she muttered, "What will your Gong family say about me then?"
"Who dares to say anything about you?" Gong Chengjue pushed her downstairs, but the car couldn't push the wheelchair up, so Su Ziqing endured the pain and got into the car herself.
She didn't bother asking where they went next. Gong Chengjue had come home with her, and in such a short time, he had almost lost his life. At this point, she dared not gamble again; that place should be safe.
Because there is no such thing as "should" in this world.
"Don't waste your breath, I won't cooperate with you." Su Ziqing smiled at him, "Even if you provide the funding, it won't work."
Gong Chengjue: "..." He never imagined that he, Gong Chengjue, would be so thoroughly disliked.
After a while, he said with a hint of jealousy, "How come Feng Xixuan and Lu Linghong are allowed to do it?"
Don't think he doesn't know, hmph.
“They… are like my family.” Su Ziqing looked at him earnestly and said, “Although they are not family, they are just as important to me as family.”
"Then what am I to you?" They are family, so what am I?
The other people in the car pretending not to exist...
Did Mr. Gong just hurt his head? Otherwise, why would he ask such a childish question?
Su Ziqing glared at him, "Gong Chengjue, how childish are you?"
Exactly, isn't that childish? Everyone can smell the sourness.
However, Gong Chengjue did not think he was naive at all. He felt that after experiencing a life-threatening situation, he urgently needed to make a vow of eternal love to Su Ziqing.
Restore his status as the official boyfriend!
He stared at her without speaking, but his eyes conveyed a persistent message: whether you speak or not, I will continue to stare at you until you do.
Su Ziqing sighed softly, "Gong Chengjue, you really..."
"Lower your head." He was shameless, but she felt she still had some self-respect.
Gong Chengjue lowered his head, his face full of anticipation.
I thought that in such a beautiful atmosphere, after experiencing the intense warmth of a life-or-death moment, she would say something very touching, and then their relationship would naturally return to what it was before.
However, imagination is often too beautiful, while reality... is rather harsh.
All that could be heard was Su Ziqing saying in a low voice, "What do you want to be to me? It depends on your performance."
These ambiguous words dashed Gong Chengjue's hopes. After saying this, Su Ziqing coughed lightly, "I'm a little sleepy, I'll take a nap first."
She doesn't care if she doesn't look; he can stare as long as he wants.
She's been very considerate of him, only saying things like that in his ear. What a kind person!
His hopes dashed, Gong Chengjue, who longed to reclaim his boyfriend's affections, was only stunned for about ten seconds before he lowered his head and whispered in her ear, just like she had done, "How should I behave? Does... in bed count?"
When he spoke the word "shang," he deliberately murmured it, making it almost imperceptible.
His breath tickled Su Ziqing's ear, but she pretended not to hear anything.
Acting like a hooligan? Sorry, she doesn't want to.
"Ziqing?" Seeing that she didn't respond, Gong Chengjue was a little unsure.
Sigh, that's why women shouldn't "turn evil," otherwise it's really, really hard to win them back.
Gong Chengjue felt like he had shot himself in the foot. What kind of idiot was he to think that breaking up with her would make her safer?
Su Ziqing lazily raised her eyelids. "Gong Chengjue, I suspect you're making a suggestive joke on purpose." But she had no proof.
Gong Chengjue looked at her intently.
Su Ziqing closed her eyes again. "I'm really sleepy. Wake me when we get there." With that, she leaned her head against his chest.
What is he to her?
Well, what does he think?
Seeing that she was truly exhausted, Gong Chengjue stopped trying to amuse her and gently stroked her head, feeling the intimacy they had shared in months.
His gaze, which had been so gentle just moments before, was now filled with frost, indicating that Gong Changming had become desperate.
They're determined to go all the way to the bitter end, insisting on a fight to the death. Ha!
He was afraid of disturbing Su Ziqing, so even though Luo Jinhan was in the same car with him, he didn't say anything. Instead, he stroked Su Ziqing's hair with one hand while typing on his phone with the other to send a message to Luo Jinhan.
"Send everything that just happened back to the Gong family."
