"this……"
Although Butler Cheng didn't want to mention that matter, since Gu Xiwan was so determined to know the answer, he could only tell the truth,
"Young Madam, this is how it is——
When the young master was ten years old, he and the old lady lived on the street. When the young master and the young madam were helpless, they met Miss Sheng.
Miss Sheng and Miss Sheng's parents helped the young master and the old lady. Since then, the young master and Miss Sheng have been inseparable. The young master made an engagement with Miss Sheng when he was thirteen years old. When the young master and Miss Sheng After the young lady came of age, the two of them got married, alas! But……
However, two years ago, the young master's enemies kidnapped the old lady, Miss Sheng, Miss Sheng's mother and Miss Sheng's brother in order to retaliate against the young master. After the young master learned about it, he immediately rushed to rescue them.
However, the young master arrived a step too late after all. Those cold-blooded killers killed Miss Sheng's ten-year-old brother in front of Miss Sheng, and then tied Miss Sheng, the old lady and Miss Sheng's mother into the same room. of three different locations and set fire to that room!
When the young master arrived at the scene, the house had become a sea of fire. Regardless of his own safety, the young master rushed into the sea of fire to save others. However, no matter how powerful the young master was, he did not have three heads and six arms. He could only save one by one. Miss Sheng’s mother He insisted on letting the young master save the old lady and Miss Sheng first. As a result, although the young master finally succeeded in rescuing Miss Sheng's mother, Miss Sheng's mother's legs were still burned so badly that she could no longer stand up. "
After hearing what Butler Cheng said, Gu Xiwan immediately understood.
No wonder Sheng Xinyi got so scared when she saw her holding a fruit knife——
It turns out that Sheng Xinyi saw her brother being killed in front of her eyes. The murder weapon used by the person who killed Sheng Xinyi's brother must have been a knife;
No wonder Chu Lingjue blamed himself so much.
Because Chu Lingjue’s enemies kidnapped Sheng Xinyi and Sheng Xinyi’s family in order to take revenge on him...
At this time, I heard the butler Cheng continue,
"Since then, although the young master and Miss Sheng still love each other sincerely, Miss Sheng's father blames the young master for the death of his precious son and the lifelong disability of his wife. Miss Sheng's father disagrees with Sheng's life and death. The young lady and the young master continued to be together, and eventually, Miss Sheng's father forced Miss Sheng to marry the young master's business rival a year ago.
The young master was disheartened because he could not be with Miss Sheng. The young master never wanted to love again. So, after Gu Baixue pretended to be another girl and rescued the young master, the young master actually wanted to marry Gu Baixue...
Madam, because the young master’s heart is already dead, it would be the same to him if he marries any woman as his wife! "
Gu Xiwan's lips moved, but she couldn't say a word.
She had always felt that a king like Chu Lingjue, who stood at the top of the pyramid, was so powerful that he could turn his hands into clouds and rain, and he never lacked anything.
Gu Xiwan could not have imagined that Chu Lingjue was such a pitiful person.
"Young madam, you are a big surprise to the young master. You are simply a gift from God that took pity on the young master. Only you can heal the young master's riddled heart. The young master is also a person worthy of your kindness. , I hope you will treat him well, don’t let him down, let alone let him get hurt again.”
The steward's gentle voice sounded again.
"Ah."
Gu Xiwan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Uncle Cheng, are you getting older and starting to get confused? If I were really as capable as you say, I wouldn't be in this situation right now!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the stairs.
The moment he turned around, the smile on his lips turned into sarcasm.
She is self-aware.
Especially after learning that Chu Lingjue mistakenly identified her as Sheng Xinyi after being drunk that night, and that Chu Lingjue's words "I love you" were meant for Sheng Xinyi, she understood her position in Chu Lingjue's heart even more!
To Chu Lingjue, who is she?
Just like Gu Baixue, he was just a chess piece used by Chu Lingjue!
How could she be a gift from God to Chu Lingjue?
Even if she sympathizes with Chu Lingjue, what can she do to heal Chu Lingjue's riddled heart?
Just before walking out of Chu Lingjue's study, Gu Xiwan's heart felt heavy once she thought of drawing a clear line between her and Chu Lingjue after their 100-year anniversary;
After learning about Chu Lingjue and Sheng Xinyi, Gu Xiwan felt relieved!
A hundred days, just a hundred days!
Draw a clear line, just draw a clear line!
Anyway, Chu Lingjue only has Sheng Xinyi in her heart. Anyway, she will never be able to enter Chu Lingjue's heart. Why should she be attached to a man who will never fall in love with her!
Gu Xiwan took a bath.
He returned to the bedroom wrapped in a bath towel and was about to change into pajamas when Chu Lingjue suddenly opened the door and walked in.
"Ah! I haven't changed my clothes yet, so don't go in yet..."
Before Gu Xiwan could finish her words, Chu Lingjue, who had long legs and long steps, had already come behind her, put his hands under her armpits, and hugged her.
Gu Xiwan's body trembled deeply.
In an instant, the skin from his face to his neck turned red as if on fire.
"Chu Lingjue, you promised me that you would never come near me without my permission. What are you... doing..."
While speaking in a trembling voice, she panicked and grabbed Chu Lingjue's hand covering her waist with both hands.
The bath towel she wore was short and loose, and most of her body was exposed, while Chu Lingjue's two palms covered her skin without any gaps...
Gu Xiwan only felt that the temperature in his palm was as hot and sultry as a flame, which made her panic!
However, no matter how strong Gu Xiwan's reaction was, her fingers drew eye-catching blood marks on the back of Chu Lingjue's hand, but Chu Lingjue still refused to let go of her.
Instead, he hugged her tighter, and a pair of lips as thin as medicine gently held her crimson earlobes,
"Be obedient and leave you to me."
His voice is so magnetic, the breath from his mouth is so fresh, so hot and charming...
It's like a loving man is pouring out his love words to the woman he loves deeply!
Gu Xiwan could not have imagined that she had just let go of Chu Lingjue more than ten minutes ago. At this moment, she could not resist his temptation and fell into his passionate passion!
She was frozen in place for a moment.
Let his lips kiss her earlobes, cheeks, and chin, acting like a monster.
