Chu Lingxiao was not moved by Gu Jiali's words at all. On her handsome and carved face, there was only pride.
"Don't you know how Wanwan was forced to marry?
What's more, the person Wanwan married is none other than my brother - my brother also has a woman he loves. My brother is maintaining a superficial relationship with Wanwan now to make his mother happy. Sooner or later, my brother will marry Wanwan. Divorced, Wanwan will become my wife sooner or later. "
Gu Xiwan's fingertips trembled.
Everything Chu Lingxiao said was the reality that Gu Xiwan and Chu Lingjue had seen very clearly on the first day of their marriage.
I don't know when these realities have turned into a scar in Gu Xiwan's heart. Whenever she thinks about it or hears others talk about it, she can't help but feel a faint pain.
She unconsciously looked at Chu Lingjue.
Chu Lingjue was also looking at her.
Chu Lingjue's eyes, as bright as ice crystals, seemed to be shrouded in a faint haze. Gu Xiwan couldn't understand what this haze meant...
"So that's it."
Gu Jiali's eyes were filled with mockery.
"Ling Xiao, it doesn't matter even if your brother doesn't agree to divorce Wanwan. Anyway, your brother is terminally ill and won't live long. You have endured all these years just to get Wanwan. At worst, you have to work harder to get through it. If your brother dies and Wanwan becomes a widow, why don't you take the position again?"
Chu Lingxiao was noble and elegant at heart, and he didn't bother to get angry with someone like Gu Jiali who was not up to par, so he just raised the corners of his mouth coolly.
There was a trace of disgust in Chu Lingjue's deep cold eyes.
Gu Baixue was enough to annoy Chu Lingjue.
Unexpectedly, Gu Jiali was even more vulgar and obscene.
How could the cold and proud Gu Xiwan have two sisters like this?
"Taking a step back, even if your brother is still married to Sister Wanwan, you and Wanwan can secretly be a romantic couple for the time being. Anyway, your brother has become a useless person and cannot be treated humanely. The wealth should not go to outsiders."
Gu Jiali was famous for her sharp tongue, and no one was paying attention to her at the moment. Instead of shutting up, she got even fiercer and said,
"Besides, I heard that Wanwan is already pregnant with your child. Are you and Wanwan a real couple? Right? Ling Xiao!"
"cough……"
Chu Lingjue made a low cough.
At this moment, a string in his heart seemed to be broken.
"What?"
Chu Lingxiao was shocked. He was about to ask Gu Jiali how it was possible that Gu Xiwan was pregnant with his child, but Gu Baixue hurriedly walked in from outside and changed the subject.
"Lili, why do you always bring up these unpleasant topics? Ling Xiao has been in love with Sister Wanwan for so many years, and he and Sister Wanwan are finally able to achieve success. We should bless them."
As he spoke, he came to Chu Lingxiao's sofa and patted Chu Lingxiao's shoulder.
“Ling Xiao, bless you.
In addition, I also want to remind you that you are the male god in the eyes of many girls. You must be loyal to my sister and don't play around with her. "
Chu Lingxiao gently held Gu Xiwan's hand, her warm eyes filled with tenderness.
"The little girl is the only girl who has entered my heart. I'm just afraid that she won't give me the chance to love her. Now, it's my great honor that she is willing to give me such a chance. I will try my best to protect her in this life. Unswerving.”
Gu Xiwan didn't listen to a word of Chu Lingxiao's affectionate words.
She didn't even feel Chu Lingxiao grabbing her hand.
Her eyes were always fixed on the face of Chu Lingjue opposite her.
The cough Chu Lingjue just made was very low and gentle, but Gu Xiwan seemed to have been touched by a sensitive nerve and couldn't help but look at him again——
Seeing the pain in his brows and eyes, Gu Xiwan nervously turned her attention to him. Other things happening around her could no longer attract her attention...
Gu Xiwan knew that a man as strong as a king like Chu Lingjue would never show pain on his face unless he was in extreme pain.
Not long ago, Chu Lingjue asked her to check his heart.
Yesterday, Chu Lingjue vomited blood!
"Ling Xiao, I feel relieved when you say this. I also wish you and my sister will eventually become lovers..."
"enough!"
Chu Lingjue suddenly interrupted Gu Baixue's words in a deep voice. He endured the pain in his heart like a thousand arrows piercing his heart and said without leaving a trace,
"I'll go out for a while and you guys can chat."
Before he could finish his words, he had already started walking towards the door with his long legs.
This man who is as noble as a king, no matter what he is enduring in his heart, always disguises himself tightly with a cold coat. At this moment, his face is expressionless and his steps are steady, making it difficult for others to notice anything unusual.
But Gu Xiwan was always paying attention to him. The moment he walked by Gu Xiwan, Gu Xiwan could clearly see his fingers trembling.
At this moment, Gu Xiwan felt a sudden pain in her heart. She quickly stood up and followed Chu Lingjue towards the door.
"Wanwan, where are you going?"
Chu Lingxiao pulled Gu Xiwan.
Gu Xiwan didn't feel it at all. She casually said, "Go out and get some air" and continued to chase Chu Lingjue.
As long as Chu Lingjue heard words like blessing Chu Lingxiao and Gu Xiwan, his heart would feel sore and painful as if he would vomit blood at any time. After he walked out of the south living room, he walked faster and faster.
Gu Xiwan was only worried about Chu Lingjue's shortcomings, so she followed him with three steps and two steps.
Just one minute later, Chu Lingjue walked outside.
Leaning on the plane tree in the yard, lighting a cigarette, looking up at the gray sky, and taking a deep breath...
Seeing this scene, Gu Xiwan stopped.
A hanging heart suddenly fell into my stomach.
Gu Xiwan does not smoke, but as a doctor, she knows very well that when a person is addicted to smoking, he will show pain. If the addiction is serious, his fingers will even tremble.
It turns out that Chu Lingjue was addicted to cigarettes just now!
"well……"
Gu Xiwan lay on the floor-to-ceiling window and breathed a long sigh of relief.
The next second, I suddenly felt ridiculous.
Today, Chu Lingjue celebrated Gu Baixue's birthday.
Gu Xiwan also made up her mind more than once that she would never be moved by Chu Lingjue again.
However, Chu Lingjue only showed a hint of pain, and she felt as if the sky had fallen, and she was only thinking about him.
"Little girl, are you okay?"
This magnetic, gentle and heart-warming voice sounded behind Gu Xiwan.
Gu Xiwan hurriedly put away the concern in her eyes, turned around and said as if nothing had happened,
"Okay, what's wrong?"
"I just felt something was wrong with your expression, so I came here to see you." Chu Lingxiao gently raised Gu Xiwan's chin and stared at her pretty face tenderly.
"I'm feeling better now."
While he was talking, his expression froze when he saw Chu Lingjue smoking alone under a tree in the courtyard.
Anyone who knows Chu Lingjue knows that Chu Lingjue never smokes!
But……
Seeing Chu Lingjue like this, Chu Lingxiao didn't know why, but suddenly felt that Chu Lingjue, a man who had always been as strong as a king, was extremely lonely and pitiful.
