"Pearl of the Sea"——
A well-known seaside hotel in Haicheng.
Tonight, the entire hotel was booked by Chu Lingxiao, because Chu Lingxiao's 22nd birthday party was held in this hotel tonight.
"Haicheng Pearl" covers an area of more than 2,000 square meters. The main building has a total of five floors. The first and second floors are restaurants, and the third, fourth and fifth floors are hotels. The restaurants on each floor alone can accommodate more than 200 people——
Gu Xiwan originally thought that many people would come to celebrate Chu Lingxiao's birthday tonight. She and Chu Lingjue walked into the lobby on the first floor and found that there were only a few people in the lobby on the first floor, which seemed particularly unusual in this huge hall. Deserted.
Seeing Gu Xiwan's blank expression, Qin Yueying smiled and said,
"Young Madam, it seems that this is your first time attending Ling Xiao's birthday party, how could it be?
You and Ling Xiao are university alumni, and you are the only girl Ling Xiao loves. Has Ling Xiao never invited you to his birthday before? "
Gu Xiwan just said,
"He did invite me."
Gu Xiwan refused to say more about what happened between her and Chu Lingxiao, and Qin Yueying stopped asking any more questions. She raised her finger and pointed at Chu Lingxiao who was standing under the crystal lamp and said,
"Ling Xiao is a low-key person. Although he has a wide network of contacts, he doesn't want to make it public. He only invites a few important relatives and friends to his birthday every year. He rents out the entire hotel because he doesn't want to be disturbed by others."
"Oh, that's it." Gu Xiwan smiled sweetly,
"Low-key luxury, noble and never revealing, this is his style."
Qin Yueying also laughed out loud,
"You have a very high opinion of Ling Xiao. In fact, Ling Xiao is also the supreme male god in my mind. Unfortunately, I am more than ten years older than him. I know I am not good enough for him, otherwise I would have taken the initiative to pursue him. ,Hahaha."
Gu Xiwan winked at Qin Yueying, "Sister Yingying, age is not a distance. Maybe Ling Xiao likes a mature and neutral woman like you. Go chase him quickly..."
The two women were smiling happily, and no one noticed that the face of Chu Lingjue next to Gu Xiwan had already turned black.
Low-key luxury, noble but never obvious...
Sure enough, Chu Lingxiao's image in his wife's heart was extremely high, and he suddenly regretted bringing Gu Xiwan to Chu Lingxiao's birthday party.
At this time, Chu Lingxiao discovered Gu Xiwan. He looked happy, took a few steps to reach Gu Xiwan, and said in a gentle and elegant manner,
"Wanwan, you're here too!"
Gu Xiwan raised her eyes and looked at Chu Lingxiao.
Chu Lingxiao's face was so handsome and perfect. His clear eyebrows, thin lips, smooth skin with no visible pores... everything seemed to be a peerless beauty, captivating the city.
In the past, whenever Gu Xiwan saw Chu Lingxiao again after not seeing him for a long time, her eyes would be attracted by his face. This time, it was no exception——
Gu Xiwan stared blankly at Chu Lingxiao's face for a moment, then slowly raised a smile at the corner of her mouth and said lightly,
"Yes, this is the birthday gift I prepared for you. Actually, I don't know what is in this gift box, because it is a blind box. I hope you will be surprised when you open this blind box."
"Thanks."
Chu Lingxiao, who was as noble as a prince, took the gift box gracefully. His eyes only stayed on the gift box for a moment, then fell on Xiwan's beautiful face, and said affectionately,
"Wanwan, I fell in love with you at first sight the day I met you four years ago. Since then, I have sent you an invitation every year for your birthday, but you have never refused to show your appreciation. For four years, this is first……
Little girl, why do you need to give me a gift? Your presence in front of me on my birthday means more to me than any other surprise. "
Of course Gu Xiwan knew Chu Lingxiao's feelings for her.
However, every time Chu Lingxiao showed love to her in the past, she would respond with ruthless words. Gu Xiwan could not have imagined that even so, she did not let Chu Lingxiao give up on her. Chu Lingxiao's love for her still remained. No less than before...
"Wanwan..."
"It's enough!"
Chu Lingjue suddenly interrupted Chu Lingxiao's words in a cold voice. At the same time, he took a step forward and stood between Chu Lingxiao and Gu Xiwan like a hill. He looked at Chu Lingxiao with his dark eyes and said,
"Last month, when someone was plotting against me, the person who sacrificed her life to save me was my wife; the child in my wife's belly was created by me and her on the night she sacrificed her life to save me; my wife's biological father was My mentor...
Ling Xiao, is this news not new to you? "
A trace of melancholy appeared on Chu Lingxiao's handsome and picturesque face.
"I heard from the housekeeper that this news is indeed not new to me."
"very good!"
The corners of Chu Lingjue's perfectly curved mouth were slightly upward, and his eyes were cold, ruthless, and sour.
"Then, you should be more aware that the relationship between my wife and I is indestructible, and no one can ever try to break us up, right?"
"..." The corners of Chu Lingxiao's perfectly carved mouth twitched, and after a moment, he said in despair,
"Brother, I'm sorry, I know I just lost my temper...
I just haven't seen Wanwan for a long time, so I can't help myself. "
Chu Lingjue and Chu Lingxiao were brothers in love.
Chu Lingxiao is also one of the people Chu Lingjue cares about most.
In the past, no matter how Chu Lingxiao offended Chu Lingjue, as long as Chu Lingxiao accepted his mistake, Chu Lingjue would never care about it.
This time is the only exception!
Chu Lingjue didn't know what was wrong with him.
He brought Gu Xiwan to Chu Lingxiao's birthday party out of good intentions.
However, the moment Chu Lingjue saw that Gu Xiwan had put on makeup to attend Chu Lingxiao's birthday party, his heart felt as if a jar of jealousy had been overturned, and the strong jealousy was eating away at him like acetic acid. heart of……
Just now, Chu Lingxiao stood in front of Gu Xiwan and saw Gu Xiwan looking at Chu Lingxiao in a daze. The jealousy in Chu Lingjue's heart was so strong that it made him suffocate.
Chu Lingxiao not only ignored his presence and flirted with Gu Xiwan, but also said some tender and affectionate words to Gu Xiwan, which made Chu Lingjue almost crazy with jealousy.
Therefore, even though Chu Lingxiao had apologized, Chu Lingjue still had eyes as cold as a god of death and said in a deep voice,
"Ling Xiao, since today is your birthday, I don't care about your extraordinary behavior just now, but remember, from now on, you are not allowed to appear within three meters of my wife, nor are you allowed to Say any ambiguous words to her, otherwise, there will be consequences at your own risk."
Chu Lingxiao's delicate lips were open, unable to say a word.
Chu Lingjue held Gu Xiwan's slender waist possessively, squeezed her tightly into his arms, deliberately pressed his lips to Fu Xiwan's face, and said softly,
"Baby, let's go."
baby? !
Although it is normal for a man to call his wife this way.
However, when these two words came out of Chu Lingjue's mouth, Gu Xiwan was shocked and confused for a moment. It wasn't until Chu Lingjue hugged her body and moved forward that she said "Oh" in a daze and stepped forward. He quickly followed Chu Lingjue and walked forward.
Watching Gu Xiwan's retreating figure, the gentleness that shined like starlight in Chu Lingxiao's eyes gradually extinguished and turned into eyes filled with sadness...
Qin Yueying couldn't help but feel sympathy and comforted her softly,
"You know Ye Di better than I do. In the past, he never cared about anything with you. The reason why he was so abnormal about you and Wanwan just shows how much he cares about Wanwan. So, Ling Xiao, don't blame him. , after all, there is only one Wanwan, I think it will be good for you, Wanwan, and your brother if you let go of Wanwan."
"Haha, put it down... put it down!
Each of you is trying to persuade me to let go. Of all of you who say these things, have any of you ever loved someone as deeply as I have? If you have really loved like me, you will know that I am obsessed with her. No matter how good other women are, they can't make any waves in my heart. She is already my flesh and blood and my soul. , letting her go is easier said than done? "
Staring at Gu Xiwan's graceful figure for a moment, admiration, admiration, loss, sadness, self-mockery... complex emotions like stormy waves kept surging in Chu Lingxiao's beautiful eyes,
"Sister Shadow, you don't need to persuade me. I also know that it would be good for everyone if I let go of Wanwan, but I will never give up. I don't blame anyone for being ruthless to me. I only blame myself for not being able to get into her heart."
