After an unknown amount of time, the courtyard door suddenly squeaked and swayed. Gu Xiwan stood up from the chair happily and looked intently. It was still empty outside the courtyard door. It turned out that it was just the wind.
At this time, Butler Cheng came behind Gu Xiwan and said lovingly,
"Young madam, the night in the mountains is extremely cold. You have been waiting in the yard for more than an hour. You are already very weak and pregnant. The young master asked me to take good care of you, just in case anything happens. How should I explain it to the young master? Even if you have to wait for the young master to come back, please go inside and wait!"
Gu Xiwan was still looking at the door that could not stop swaying in the wind, with a trace of haze hanging between her clear eyebrows.
"Uncle Cheng, you don't have to worry about me, just go to bed early."
Butler Cheng shook his head helplessly, and had no choice but to take out a thin quilt and put it into Gu Xiwan's arms.
"If you insist on staying outside, be sure to cover yourself with this quilt after you sit back in the chair, please."
Gu Xiwan couldn't help but be moved,
"Uncle Cheng, except for my mother, there has never been an elder who was as unconditionally kind to me as you are. Thank you. Even if Chu Lingjue and I break up one day, I will definitely remember you."
"Hi! Young madam, why did you suddenly say such unlucky words? I am only good to you because of the young master. Besides, since the first time I saw you, I knew that you were destined to spend this life with the young master. You and the young master The young master will not break up."
Butler Cheng walked back indoors as he spoke.
Gu Xiwan sat back on the chair, covered herself with the thin quilt, stayed up for a while and finally fell asleep.
After an unknown amount of time, Gu Xiwan fell off the chair with a thud.
Awakened by the pain, she opened her eyes and looked around. It was already dawn, the sun had already risen over the mountains, and unknown birds chirped from the mountains. The door was still swaying in the wind, only when the housekeeper sent her there. The car he was driving was parked outside the door alone.
Chu Lingjue didn't come back all night!
Gu Xiwan was so disappointed that she sat on the ground in a daze and forgot to get up for a moment.
"Young lady, the ground is very wet, you can't sit on the ground!"
Accompanied by this panicked voice, Butler Cheng ran over and helped Gu Xiwan up.
While supporting Gu Xiwan, he said,
"I just called the young master twice more, but his cell phone still couldn't get through. I asked Shadow about it, and the young master didn't come back to the company either.
The young master is neither here nor in the company. I think the most likely possibility is that the young master has gone home. Madam, why don't we go home and take a look. "
Gu Xiwan nodded.
It wasn't just that she was terribly uneasy.
Yesterday afternoon, Chu Lingjue disappeared like evaporating from the world for a week. She had never been so scared and uneasy when she learned that Chu Lingjue lived alone with Sheng Xinyi every day.
About an hour later, Butler Cheng drove Gu Xiwan back to the "Emperor Residence".
Gu Xiwan got out of the car outside the gate of "Emperor Residence".
Go directly to the guard room and ask the security guard.
"Is Chu Lingjue at home?"
The security guard who had just woken up looked at Gu Xiwan with sleepy eyes and said vaguely,
"The young master has not come back since he left eight days ago. Madam, didn't you go home last night? Weren't you with the young master?"
Gu Xiwan's lips opened, but her throat suddenly seemed to be blocked by a sponge, and she couldn't say a word.
Gu Xiwan walked into the yard mechanically.
Now, it was just seven o'clock in the morning, Zhou Shutong and Mu Yunian were not awake yet, and there was only one cleaner cleaning the huge yard.
Gu Xiwan went straight to the tea pavilion nearly a hundred meters away from the gate.
In the past, Chu Lingjue often sat in this tea pavilion drinking tea alone in his spare time.
Butler Cheng knew that Gu Xiwan was in a complicated mood. After he stopped the car, he stood with Gu Xiwan in the parking lot for a while, then stopped disturbing Gu Xiwan and went to his usual morning exercise spot.
Gu Xiwan was sitting alone in the tea pavilion, her long eyelashes unable to hide the expectant look in her eyes.
Until now, all she could think about was Chu Lingjue.
Time passed by minute by minute.
As time went by, the sunlight became stronger and stronger, making Gu Xiwan feel sleepy.
At this time, a white Lamborghini drove into the yard.
Gu Xiwan recognized this as Chu Lingjue's car because she had seen Chu Lingjue driving this car before!
Chu Lingjue!
He came home!
Gu Xiwan, who was still sleepy just now, suddenly stood up in the pavilion and ran towards the car.
In a blink of an eye, the Lamborghini drove up in front of Gu Xiwan. As soon as the car stopped, the driver's door was opened by someone in the car.
Gu Xiwan, who had been waiting all night, no longer cared about being cautious. She quickly came to the driver's door of the car, her clear eyes filled with joy.
"Ling Jue, you are finally back. Didn't I promise to go back to the villa to be with you? Why have you lost contact? Butler Cheng and I..."
Speaking of which, he stopped abruptly after seeing the face in the cockpit of the car.
The person in the cockpit turned out to be Sheng Xinyi.
Gu Xiwan took a closer look at the car. The passenger seat and the middle and rear driver's seats were all empty. How could there be a second person there?
"No need to look, Ling Jue is not in the car."
Sheng Xinyi got out of the car gracefully while talking.
Looking at Gu Xiwan's pale face, Sheng Xinyi's rouge-red lips raised ironically,
"Your face looks very haggard, and the dark circles under your eyes are very heavy. I can see that you didn't sleep well last night. No wonder, if it were my husband who stayed out all night alone with his first love, I would do the same. Insomnia."
Gu Xiwan knew that Sheng Xinyi would not say anything nice. She did not answer Sheng Xinyi's words and just retorted coldly and proudly.
"Aren't you pretending to be depressed? Don't you need Ling Jue to be with you at all times so that you don't commit suicide? If you don't continue acting, why are you driving to my house alone?"
The clear and beautiful Sheng Xinyi smiled sweetly,
"Wanwan, can't you see that I'm in a good mood now? This is what people call happy events!
You also know that my depression was all caused by Ling Jue. Ling Jue stayed with me last night and confessed his affection to me. My illness was cured immediately without treatment, isn't that okay? "
Gu Xiwan's fingertips trembled.
It took at least two seconds before she made a sound,
"You're lying! Ling Jue has been deliberately keeping a distance from you. There's no way he can confess to you!"
"Of course he won't confess to me when he's sober, but when he's drunk, it's different -
Wanwan, do you know that yesterday was my birthday, and it was also the eighth anniversary of my relationship with Ling Jue. Therefore, Ling Jue did not stay at the villa with me yesterday, but went to a hotel down the mountain with me to celebrate our wedding. The anniversary of our engagement came and he just wanted to be with me quietly, so he turned off his phone...
well! The only thing to blame is that forgetful bar. I'm sorry for Shao Ting, I cheated! "
What? !
Gu Xiwan's body swayed.
At this time, Sheng Xinyi took out a piece of white cloth the size of a handkerchief from her pocket and forced it into Gu Xiwan's hand.
"After I woke up in the hotel bed, Ling Jue was no longer with me. His mobile phone was not turned on and I couldn't find him, so I had no choice but to come to you.
Wanwan, this piece of white cloth was cut from the hotel sheets with a fruit knife this morning. It is the proof of my transformation from a girl to a woman, and it is also the witness of my first love with Ling Jue...
When you see Ling Jue, please pass it on to him and tell him that I have given him my precious first time and I hope he will treasure it well. "
Sheng Xinyi, who was already as beautiful as a fairy, was smiling brightly, like a proudly blooming rose.
Gu Xiwan could not imagine that such a pure-looking woman would say such shameless words.
In the past, Gu Xiwan would have made sarcastic remarks about Sheng Xinyi.
However, at this moment, she seemed to be strangled by an invisible hand. She could not make a sound. She just lowered her eyes and looked at the sheet in her hand that Sheng Xinyi had forcefully stuffed into her hand——
The snow-white sheets were printed with spots like rose petals. They were so enchanting and magnificent, but Gu Xiwan found them extremely dazzling.
"Oh, by the way, the night before yesterday I witnessed with my own eyes how wild Ling Jue was when you were like that, but last night Ling Jue treated me very lightly, as if I was a fragile thing and he was afraid of breaking me. …”
Sheng Xinyi deliberately raised her neck to reveal the eye-catching kiss marks.
"So, Wanwan, my judgment has always been right. Ling Jue only has desire for you. He only did that with you to vent his physiological needs. He treats me differently. When we were sweet last night, I What I feel is not only his passion, but also his love for me."
After Sheng Xinyi finished speaking, she got in the car.
The cool luxury car had already driven away, but Gu Xiwan still stood there in shock.
A few minutes ago, she was looking forward to Chu Lingjue.
At this moment, her expectant heart suddenly fell from the clouds to the bottom of the valley, and fell into pieces.
Gu Xiwan didn't believe Sheng Xinyi.
Gu Xiwan knew very well that no matter how cunning Sheng Xinyi was, she would not tell such a big lie to deceive her. What's more, Sheng Xinyi also produced evidence...
Chu Lingjue!
Was he really with Sheng Xinyi last night?
Did he really have an affair with Sheng Xinyi? !
Gu Xiwan didn't know how long she had been standing in the yard.
At this time, a black Rolls-Royce drove into the yard and stopped on her right.
"Click!"
The car door opened.
The person who got out of the car was Chu Lingjue.
In the past nearly twenty-four hours, Gu Xiwan wanted to see Chu Lingjue every moment, but at this moment, she had never been more afraid of seeing him.
She wanted to turn around and leave.
However, his feet felt like they were nailed to the ground, and he couldn't move forward.
A moment later, Chu Lingjue arrived in front of Gu Xiwan.
Chu Lingjue was nearly a head taller than Gu Xiwan. He lowered his thick black eyelashes and looked at Gu Xiwan. His beautiful eyes covered with ice and snow were filled with a layer of emotion like thick ink.
"Why do you look so bad? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
This cold and indifferent yet alluring voice as musical notes...
Gu Xiwan could not have imagined that even if she heard Chu Lingjue's voice in such a situation, her heart could not help but feel restless.
However, thinking of Sheng Xinyi's words and the red-stained sheets, Gu Xiwan suddenly sobered up as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on her.
She indifferently raised her clear eyes, looked into Chu Lingjue's eyes, and said lightly,
"Sheng Xinyi came here just now. She said you were with her last night."
The emotion in Chu Lingjue's eyes became even more heart-piercing.
His Adam's apple rolled, his thin lips opened slightly,
"yes."
Gu Xiwan's lips trembled, and she tried her best not to reveal her emotions and said,
"So, what she said is true, you...slept with her?"
"..." Chu Lingjue, who had always been decisive in killing, actually struggled for at least three seconds, and then said,
"yes."
yes!
It’s still this expressionless, cold, one-word reply!
Gu Xiwan felt like her soul was penetrated by this word. Even after Sheng Xinyi found her, she had already determined that Chu Lingjue and Sheng Xinyi were almost...
But Gu Xiwan at least had some illusions about Chu Lingjue.
How he wished Chu Lingjue would tell her that Sheng Xinyi was lying.
However, Chu Lingjue completely destroyed her remaining illusion with just one cruel word!
Although her heart was bleeding, Gu Xiwan was stubborn and did not shed a single tear. She just forced a sneer at the corner of her mouth.
"This is proof that Sheng Xinyi and I were still intact before we slept together. Please keep it and I wish you happiness."
After saying that, he walked past Chu Lingjue proudly.
After the sheet hit Chu Lingjue's arms, it fell to the ground and drifted away in the wind.
Chu Lingjue didn't even look at the sheets, he just stared at Gu Xiwan's trembling figure and said,
"What do you mean by wishing us happiness?"
Gu Xiwan paused in her steps, turned her back to Chu Lingjue, tried her best not to show any pain, and said indifferently,
"I won't be a stumbling block between you and Sheng Xinyi. I quit. I take the initiative to file for divorce."
Gu Xiwan was obviously so strong before and pretended so well, but the moment she said the word "divorce", she could no longer pretend. Her tear ducts seemed to have been cut open, and tears flowed down like crazy. .
The words Sheng Xinyi said are still echoing in her ears like an indelible spell.
Chu Lingjue doesn't love her!
Chu Lingjue only desires her!
Chu Lingjue’s true love is Sheng Xinyi!
Gu Xiwan knew all this.
However, even if Gu Xiwan knew that, since her wedding to Chu Lingjue, she still believed that she could make Chu Lingjue let go of Sheng Xinyi and become the love of Chu Lingjue's heart.
At this moment, the thing that Gu Xiwan firmly believed in suddenly broke like a string.
She felt like she couldn't hold on anymore!
She gave up!
She never wants to be a third party that hinders other people's true love!
Gu Xiwan didn't see that at this moment, cracks appeared on Chu Lingjue's perfect face like a glacier. The emotion condensed between his eyebrows was clearly hurt.
Not long after he and Gu Xiwan got married, Gu Xiwan also proposed to divorce him. At that time, he was extremely angry, but he didn't know why he was so angry!
This time, Chu Lingjue's heart seemed to be cruelly torn when he heard Gu Xiwan filed for divorce again. This king, whose endurance was much higher than that of ordinary people, even made his fingertips tremble...
But this time, Chu Lingjue already understood that the reason why he was so concerned about Gu Xiwan's divorce proposal was because he loved this woman deeply!
