Gu Xiwan was walking back to the "Emperor's Residence" holding an umbrella.
Along the way, she couldn't help but think about things related to her father and Chu Lingjue.
What Gu Xiwan didn't know was that Chu Lingjue was always standing at the door of the yard like a watchman's stone. He was holding an umbrella in one hand and a mobile phone in the other -
His mobile phone had long been bound to the positioning bracelet Gu Xiwan was wearing. Seeing Gu Xiwan's position getting closer and closer to him, this man who had always been difficult to be emotionally moved was indescribably nervous, excited, and... Emotionally……
At this time, Gu Xiwan had arrived across the street outside the gate of "Emperor's Residence". The sky seemed to be welcoming Gu Xiwan home just like Chu Lingjue. The rain was falling like ribbons a second ago, and this time Seconds later, the rain stopped suddenly, and a ray of sunshine fell from the gap in the clouds, shining on Gu Xiwan.
It was also at this moment that Chu Lingjue saw Gu Xiwan.
"Wanwan!"
Chu Lingjue couldn't help but call out Gu Xiwan's name. He threw down his umbrella and strode towards her.
Gu Xiwan did not see Chu Lingjue.
Because, Gu Xiwan's cell phone rang at this moment. Before she could look across the street, her attention was attracted by the ringtone.
It was a call from an unknown number, and Gu Xiwan picked it up.
"Are you Miss Gu?" The male voice on the phone was respectful, modest and very approachable.
Gu Xiwan seemed to have heard this voice somewhere, but she couldn't remember who the owner of it was. She said in confusion,
"It's me, who are you?"
"I am Manager Liu of the 'Happy and Liveable Real Estate Agency'. Miss Gu, do you still remember me? You came to our company a few days ago and you asked me to help you find a suitable house."
"ah?!"
Gu Xiwan was extremely surprised.
A few days ago, when she wanted to rent a house, she did leave her mobile phone number with several agencies. However, after Chu Lingjue intervened, no agency dared to continue helping her find a house. But Gu Xiwan did not give up. In the past few days, Gu Xiwan frequently contacted the agency, and when everyone in the agency found out it was her, they all avoided her like the plague...
Gu Xiwan almost gave up hope. She didn't expect that someone from the agency would take the initiative to call her!
Although Gu Xiwan could no longer remember who the manager Liu of this "happy and livable" company was, she smiled and said,
"Manager Liu, it's you. Of course I remember you. I've been waiting for you to help me find a house. Did you find a suitable house when you took the initiative to call me today?"
"Miss Gu is indeed very smart. Yes, I have a house here that is very suitable for you. I believe you will like it. Do you have time to come and take a look now?"
Gu Xiwan had waited for so long and finally waited for this opportunity. How could she miss it so easily...
She nodded immediately and said,
"Yes, Manager Liu, let's arrange a place to meet. I'll go over now."
"Okay, Miss Gu, let's meet at the house you want to rent. I'll text you the specific address of the house later."
After Manager Liu hung up the phone, he sent Gu Xiwan the address.
Gu Xiwan was overjoyed.
This address was not far from where Gu Xiwan was now. Gu Xiwan immediately found a shared bicycle on the roadside, closed the umbrella and put it in the basket, then scanned the code to unlock it.
At this time, Chu Lingjue had arrived across the street.
He was about to cross the street when he saw Gu Xiwan riding a shared bicycle and quickly turning the corner.
"Boom!"
The mobile phone originally held by Chu Lingjue fell to the ground, and the bright light that had been shining in his eyes like starlight turned into anger.
Ever since he learned the truth, Chu Lingjue had been standing at the gate of the courtyard despite the pouring rain, waiting for Gu Xiwan to come home. In order to wait for Gu Xiwan to come home, he even delayed going to pay homage to his mentor, but...
Damn it!
Does this woman not want to meet him at all?
She actually still has the intention to ride to other places at this time? !
After a while, Chu Lingjue picked up his mobile phone from the ground, called Qin Yueying, and said with a worried expression,
"You drive out personally and take me to see her."
…
The address that Manager Liu sent to Gu Xiwan was in "Hainan New District", and Gu Xiwan arrived quickly.
At this moment, Manager Liu is standing outside the gate of a single-family villa in the "Hainan New District".
As soon as Gu Xiwan entered the community on her bicycle, Manager Liu waved to her and said,
"Miss Gu, I am Manager Liu who just called you. Do you still recognize me?"
Gu Xiwan took a closer look at the man. She actually had no impression of him at all and said with a smile,
"Sorry, I went to too many agencies and met too many real estate agents that day. I can't remember you anymore."
Then he said again,
"Where is the suitable house you mentioned? Take me to see it."
Manager Liu pointed to the single-family villa in front of him.
"This is the house I'm talking about that's right for you."
What? !
Gu Xiwan immediately felt like she was being teased.
Even if Gu Xiwan has never entered this villa, she can tell from just one glance from the outside that the layout of this villa is elegant and magnificent. It covers an area of more than 300 square meters. I am afraid that such a villa will cost more than 100,000 yuan per month. More than five digits…
Gu Xiwan calmed down.
"Manager Liu, are you kidding me? Or are you confusing me with your other clients? My rental standard is two bedrooms and one living room. I don't want luxury, just cleanliness. The most important thing is the monthly payment. The rent cannot exceed one thousand two thousand!"
Manager Liu smiled and said,
"I won't get confused, Miss Gu. In fact, it was the owner of this villa who came to me and asked me to help him rent the house to you. Although this villa is not two bedrooms and one living room, it is also very luxurious, but it is very It’s clean, and the most important thing is that the landlord only charges you five hundred yuan a month in rent, and everything exceeds the standards you require.”
"..."
Gu Xiwan suspected that she was hearing hallucinations.
At this time, Manager Liu pointed behind Gu Xiwan and said respectfully,
"The owner of this villa is already here. I'll step aside for a moment. If you have any questions, you'd better ask him in person."
Manager Liu left after speaking.
Gu Xiwan glanced back and saw a tall man walking towards her from the villa. The man had a handsome face and delicate features, but his cold eyes that were as deep as a black hole made her whole body shiver.
Gu Xiwan couldn't help but shudder at first, and the next second, she raised her eyebrows coldly and arrogantly, and said indifferently,
"I thought who was so kind, but it turned out to be you, a restless and kind-hearted big pig."
"Big pig's hooves?"
Ji Shaoting's eyes squinted as he looked at Gu Xiwan from top to bottom, his eyes teasing and playful.
"Mrs. Chu, no wonder Chu Lingjue always blames you for being ruthless. Your words are really sharp and hurtful. This word is used to describe men who have no charm and are always flirting with women. Although I change women like I change clothes, but with Every woman I go to bed with is willing to give her body to me. You should say that I am free and uninhibited, charming and suave."
Gu Xiwan didn't want to talk about this kind of topic with Ji Shaoting, so she sneered,
"You have always been a scheming person. What are your intentions?"
"I know that you want to rent a house but you are being squeezed out by Chu Lingjue, so you can't rent a house. Can't I give you help in times of need?" The light in Ji Shaoting's eyes flickered, and the smile on his lips came and went, making it difficult to fathom.
"oh?"
Seeing Ji Shaoting like this, Gu Xiwan's voice became even colder,
"I might believe anyone else who offers me help in times of need, but I don't believe you."
Before he finished speaking, he looked away from Ji Shaoting's face with disdain, turned around and left.
Ji Shaoting did not chase him, but said slowly,
"When Manager Liu called you, I was by his side. When he said there was a suitable house available, you rushed over to check it out. This shows that you couldn't wait to separate from Chu Lingjue——
I'm surprised. You already know that the person who took away your first time that night was Chu Lingjue and that you were carrying his child. Shouldn't you be devoted to being with him? Why are you still separated from him? "
"..." Gu Xiwan's fingertips trembled, and then she said without leaving a trace,
"Nothing to do with you."
"All right!
I'm a straightforward person when it comes to relationships. If I like a woman, I'll go straight to sleep with her. I don't bother to ask about those complex, heart-wrenching and energy-consuming relationships between men and women..."
Ji Shaoting lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and said while blowing smoke rings,
"I know you don't trust me, but when it comes to renting this house to you, I swear to you that my only purpose in renting this house to you is to separate you and Chu Lingjue. I I will never set you up in this matter, nor will there be any trouble caused by renting a house. This is the key to this villa, and you can move in at any time if you want."
Raising her hand, a bunch of keys flew towards Gu Xiwan.
Accompanied by a series of crisp sounds, the bunch of keys fell at Gu Xiwan's feet. Gu Xiwan glanced down and couldn't help but stop.
"Take it first. I have never lived in this villa since I bought it. Anyway, I don't need this set of keys.
You don't need to give me an answer now. When you decide to move in, you can transfer the rent to Manager Liu and you can move in. "
After Ji Shaoting finished speaking, he got in the car and drove away.
Gu Xiwan hesitated for a moment, then finally reached down to pick up the keys and put them in her handbag.
When Gu Xiwan first saw Ji Shaoting, she knew that Ji Shaoting was very powerful. Of course she didn't believe Ji Shaoting.
But now, Gu Xiwan was sure that Ji Shaoting would not plot against her in renting the house to her.
Because a person of Ji Shaoting's status may be scheming and cunning, but he will never go back on his word in a despicable manner. Ji Shaoting dared to swear to her, which is enough to explain everything...
However, if she rents Ji Shaoting's house, she will still be involved with Ji Shaoting after all. Should she move into this villa?
Gu Xiwan was so distracted by her thoughts that she didn't notice that a Rolls-Royce had parked on her right.
At this time, the door of the middle row of the car opened. As soon as the door opened, a cold voice sounded,
"I originally planned to wait for you at home, but you were about to arrive at the door, but you turned back. Do you have to ask me to pick you up in person before you will go home?"
This sound...
Gu Xiwan immediately recognized that the owner of the voice was Chu Lingjue.
She raised her eyes and in the next moment, her eyes met with Chu Lingjue's.
Chu Lingjue's eyes are as bright and clear as ice crystals. The surface of these eyes always seems to be covered with a layer of ice and snow, making it impossible to see his true emotions and can only feel cold...
At this moment, the layer of ice and snow on his eyes seemed to melt, and the look he looked at Gu Xiwan was clearly so gentle.
Gu Xiwan, who was still worried just now, met Chu Lingjue's gaze and suddenly seemed to fall into his eyes.
At the same time, a gap seemed to be dug in her heart, and countless joys, joys, and emotions surged out of this gap hysterically.
It was also at this moment that Gu Xiwan realized that she had wanted to see Chu Lingjue from the moment she learned the truth.
However, I was afraid that I would be so happy after seeing Chu Lingjue that I would not be able to control my love for him, so I kept escaping...
"Chu..."
Gu Xiwan wanted to call Chu Lingjue's name.
At this time, Chu Lingjue had strode up to her and hugged her tightly.
Gu Xiwan didn't want to speak immediately.
She just snuggled quietly in his arms, resting her face on his chest, his steady heartbeat beating her cheek like a hammer, his unique breath lingering in her nose, At this moment, Gu Xiwan felt that all words were unnecessary. As long as she rested in his arms, it was enough...
"The 22nd of last month.
Since that night, I have been looking for you, and until today I didn't know that the person I was looking for was always by my side. "
Chu Lingjue stroked Gu Xiwan's back with one hand and gently grasped the long black hair on the back of Gu Xiwan's head with the other hand, as if he was protecting a child he loved most.
He lowered his head slightly, put his thin lips next to Gu Xiwan's ear, and said softly,
"No wonder I felt that your breath seemed familiar when I approached you on our wedding night. No wonder I can't stop lusting after you. It turns out that we have met before. That night, you saved my life. Wife, I have always wanted to repay you. It's you."
Chu Lingjue's voice was so gentle and pleasant, and the breath he exhaled between his lips and teeth was so hot, brushing against Gu Xiwan's ears and cheeks like clusters of flames...
And the warmth of his chest was so warm that it seemed to melt her.
Gu Xiwan remembered that Chu Lingjue had hugged her in the past. However, every time Chu Lingjue hugged her, he either kissed her wildly or wanted her... This was the first time Chu Lingjue hugged her calmly and simply. .
In the past, when Chu Lingjue kissed Gu Xiwan passionately, Gu Xiwan would struggle and resist at first.
Now, Chu Lingjue hugged her gently and quietly, and she only felt stable and at ease... She was so greedy for this feeling!
At this time, Chu Lingjue continued,
"Butler Cheng told me, Wanwan, you are not only the savior I have been looking for, but your biological father is my mentor. My mentor saved my life and my mother's. He is as kind as a mountain to me, no matter what. No matter what, I will repay you well."
As Chu Lingjue spoke, he gently lifted Gu Xiwan's face with two fingers, looked into her clear eyes with burning eyes, and said softly,
"Say, what do you want?"
