Gong Chengjue, whose car was on its way to the airport, immediately changed his mind upon hearing this and said, "Turn around."
Luo Jinhan asked, puzzled, "Mr. Gong?"
"I forgot something," Gong Chengjue said seriously.
"Is it that important?" Luo Jinhan felt that they might not make it in time, but then he thought that since it was his private jet, it could still be modified.
Gong Chengjue glanced at him and said, "What do you think?"
……………………
Su Ziqing changed into her pajamas and lay in bed thinking.
My mind is full of random, nonsensical thoughts. That's why they say girls' IQ drops to negative levels when it comes to love.
Her composure and previous indifference will all be exposed now.
Even when Gong Chengjue was kissed by Zhou Ruoling, she felt a pang of jealousy.
Her hand unconsciously tightened its grip on the bedsheet. He had even sent bodyguards to Zhou Ruoling!
Moreover, based on her understanding of him, how could an ordinary person get close to him? He was a very guarded man, yet Zhou Ruoling was able to kiss him!
She turned over and accidentally pressed on her wound, making a sound of pain. She got out of bed and onto the ground, feeling somewhat agitated.
She looked at herself in the mirror. Before, she wasn't very concerned about whether she would have scars, but now she was very concerned.
Fortunately, there was no injury to her face; it was a stroke of good luck amidst misfortune.
"If I had a scar, would he suspect me?" she whispered, but then immediately looked down on herself. Why was she making herself look like a sentimental little girl?
"No." Gong Chengjue, who had returned, stood at the door and heard her whispered question to herself.
Hearing her lack of confidence in her voice, he felt extremely sorry for her.
He was almost fooled by her feigned indifference.
When Su Ziqing heard Gong Chengjue's voice, she thought she was hallucinating and pouted, "What does it matter if he can or can't he? I don't care."
Suddenly, I felt something was wrong.
Then she saw Gong Chengjue walking towards her, and blinked, "You...why are you back?"
"I forgot to put something important down." He walked up to her and habitually pulled her into his arms, his movements gentle, afraid of hurting her.
"What?" He forgot to leave something important behind? Did he bring something to City A? "Documents?"
“Heart,” Gong Chengjue said seriously.
Su Ziqing: "..." New what?
He didn't tell her, but left his love for her there.
Even if he returns to the capital, his heart is still here.
Su Ziqing: "..." How cheesy!
But looking at Gong Chengjue, who was saying such cheesy things so earnestly, I felt... he was very handsome?
"Gong Chengjue, you..." She couldn't finish her sentence. She felt that when a man was being sweet-talking, she shouldn't dampen his enthusiasm.
“Great!” she smiled.
"You can ask me about my relationship with Zhou Ruoling." He released her. "Now, can you stop being angry?"
"Angry?" She wasn't angry at all. Did he misunderstand the word "angry"?
She gave a dry laugh, "I'm not angry at all. I have no interest in what you and Miss Zhou are going through."
“Originally, we were supposed to sever ties once the injury healed, but since we hadn’t defined our relationship before, it seems strange to go public on purpose,” Gong Chengjue explained.
Su Ziqing raised her hand to cover her ears, "Ugh, stop talking, I don't want to hear it, I'm not curious about what's going on between you two."
However, while she said she didn't care, her eyes were fixed on him, as if reminding him to speak quickly and explain himself clearly.
"I'll keep it short." Gong Chengjue recounted how he and Zhou Ruoling reached an agreement and then cooperated, each getting what they needed.
Finally, he recounted the unexpected events Zhou Ruoling had encountered over the past month.
Su Ziqing blinked. "How can the Zhou family decide on the marriage of their daughters so arbitrarily?"
The Zhou family actually plans to marry Zhou Ruoling off to a middle-aged widower with a bad reputation?
Gong Chengjue looked at her without saying a word.
Okay, she understands, it really works.
Ordinary families might be able to escape, but for families like the Zhou's, there are probably all sorts of ways to force them to compromise.
Su Ziqing suddenly felt a little sorry for Zhou Ruoling.
No wonder Zhou Ruoling is so 'heartless'.
"Next month is the deadline." Gong Chengjue lifted her hand and kissed it, saying earnestly, "Next month, let's go public, okay?"
Su Ziqing withdrew her hand and tilted her head slightly. "Aren't you in a hurry to get back to the capital? It's late, hurry up and go to the airport."
Gong Chengjue: "..." Okay, at least she doesn't object anymore, right?
"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Gong Chengjue waited patiently for her questions.
Su Ziqing was amused by his interrogation-like expression, "No, no, you weren't in a hurry..."
Words were swallowed up by the sound of their breaths.
After a long while, Gong Chengjue released her, cupped her face in his hands, and said tenderly, "I love you."
Su Ziqing remained silent, only smiling.
This kind of confession without any interaction is really heartbreaking, but who told him to break up with me in the first place?
So, debts owed must always be repaid.
Gong Chengjue knew she wouldn't respond, but he was still happy with the current progress.
"How about... I go back tomorrow?" He suddenly didn't want to leave anymore.
Su Ziqing smiled at him and said, "Whatever you want. It's your house anyway, with so many rooms."
Want to sleep together? Then don't even think about it.
Gong Chengjue: "..." Sigh, never mind.
He can't be that greedy.
"I'll have someone send you some scar-removing ointment in a couple of days. Don't worry, it won't leave a single scar on your body." Gong Chengjue didn't want his little darling to worry about the wound.
“It’s a secret recipe from the imperial court.” He gently pinched her nose. “It should arrive in the capital tomorrow.”
"Oh~" Su Ziqing continued to maintain her little bit of pride, "The doctor said I only had a scratch, so it shouldn't leave a scar."
Who was it that was wallowing in self-pity just now? Gong Chengjue did not expose her 'stubbornness'.
"Alright, hurry up and go, I'm going to sleep." If he doesn't leave now, it will be dawn by the time he gets back to the capital.
Gong Chengjue turned away reluctantly, "Goodnight, dream of me."
"Who wants to dream about you? I want a dreamless night." Su Ziqing pushed him out and closed the door.
Gong Chengjue: "..."
The bodyguards downstairs and Luo Jinhan, "..."
Mr. Gong, I never thought you'd be disliked like this, did I? What should I do? I feel like sharing this with someone.
But that's just a thought. For the sake of my life, I'll just pretend I can't see anything.
Gong Chengjue came downstairs. Just as he reached the bottom, Su Ziqing opened the door and poked her head out from upstairs, saying to him, "Gong Chengjue."
Gong Chengjue's eyes were full of tenderness and affection. "Hmm?"
"I'm hard to get!" Hmph.
