For the next four or five days, Gu Chengyan would go out early and come back late. Li Muhan's life seemed to be back to the past, getting up, eating, exercising, and taking medicine.
She and Mrs. Lin were still the only two people in the villa.
She thought about it carefully in the past two days and felt that she should talk to Gu Chengyan.
She had to know what he was thinking and also express her own thoughts so that it would be easier for her to act.
But this reality doesn’t allow it!
She couldn't even touch Gu Chengyan's face, even though they lived under the same roof.
Her legs are about to return to normal. After recovery, the first thing she needs to do is get her diploma, and then she can find a job and ensure an independent living environment.
Speaking of graduation certificate, Li Muhan thought of the graduation thesis that gave her a headache, and she was about to go crazy in an instant!
There is less than a month left, what is she going to do!
He was originally going to take a walk in the yard and think about how to talk to Gu Chengyan, but now he suddenly lost his mood.
Forget it, let’s go back to the house and study the paper!
This study lasted until the evening, until Mrs. Lin knocked on her door.
"Mu Han, dinner is ready, come down and eat!"
Li Muhan, who had been searching for information all afternoon, was already dizzy. He hesitated for two seconds before expressing his understanding.
After collecting the information I searched in the afternoon, I washed my face first and felt a little refreshed before going downstairs.
When he arrived at the restaurant, he found Gu Chengyan, whom he hadn't seen for a few days, sitting there and looking at him.
Li Muhan was stunned for a moment, but immediately returned to normal, walked over and sat aside, and said,
"I'm home!"
"Well, there's nothing to do today!"
Gu Chengyan replied briefly.
After Mrs. Lin served all the dishes, she left. They were the only two people left in the restaurant. Li Muhan felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward for no reason and did not move for the time being.
It was Gu Chengyan who spoke first,
"Let's eat!"
"good!"
Neither of them said anything else and started eating quietly.
Although no words were spoken, both of them were thinking about the problem in their minds.
Li Muhan was thinking about whether he should talk to Gu Chengyan after dinner?
But how to speak?
How can I speak more naturally?
You still have to think about it carefully.
Over there, Gu Chengyan was thinking about the investigation results that Lu Ziyu gave him today. The content was similar to what his grandfather told him before.
My parents divorced when I was young, and I lived with my grandfather. My life was very simple.
Apart from school and tutoring classes, I only have time at home. Because of my personality, I don’t have many friends.
And he specifically asked Ziyu to investigate violence, and the result was that except for being laughed at and pranked by classmates because of his parents' divorce, nothing too serious happened.
Then this is somewhat unexplainable. The stress reaction that night did not look like an ordinary reaction after an ordinary incident.
Wasn't it investigated?
But logically speaking, it shouldn’t be!
With his network of connections, it is still very easy to investigate a person.
But now that all those little things have been investigated, there are no clues at all about the big events that might have caused that reaction. Did it really not happen?
He remains skeptical.
The meal was spent by the two of them with their own thoughts. Li Muhan didn't eat much because he was thinking about things.
When Mrs. Lin finished cleaning up and Gu Chengyan was about to go upstairs, she finally made up her mind.
"Wait a moment!"
Gu Chengyan stopped going upstairs and looked back at Li Muhan.
"Is something wrong?"
He looked like he was hesitant to speak.
"Um...can we talk?"
You have to say it sooner or later, so why not say it sooner!
After making up his mind, Li Muhan's expression became much more natural, and all the previous entanglements and hesitations about speaking had dissipated.
"Go to the study!"
Gu Chengyan went upstairs first.
Li Muhan is following her!
This was the first time she came to Gu Chengyan's study.
The first impression is that it is very big, with many books, but overall it is very concise.
Apart from the bookshelf, there is only a set of desks and chairs and two simple sofas in the corner.
Gu Chengyan asked Li Muhan to sit down first, then he sat down on another sofa, and then asked,
"What do you want to talk to me about?"
Although his sitting posture was very casual, the aura that seemed to be innate in him still made Li Muhan hesitate, who was already prepared.
Why does it feel like we are negotiating?
After calming down and calming down, he spoke:
"I want to ask you something, and I hope you can answer me truthfully."
"Okay, you say."
Gu Chengyan saw Li Muhan's serious face, and it seemed that what he was about to say must be something very important, so he became serious.
But speaking of it, this seemed to be the first time that she took the initiative to talk to him, and it was so formal.
Now that you have started, it will be much easier.
Li Muhan didn't hesitate anymore and directly asked what he had always wanted to ask.
"What is your attitude towards this marriage?"
"Um?"
Gu Chengyan's low-pitched voice overflowed, and he was surprised. He didn't expect that this was what he was asking.
Then she began to think in her mind, what did she mean by asking, and what was her starting point?
Li Muhan looked at Gu Chengyan, who was serious and looking at him. He knew that his question was a bit sudden, but he still explained carefully,
"You also know that this marriage was not our original intention. The reason why we agreed to it in the first place was just because of the elders."
The reason why 'Li Muhan' agreed at the beginning was mainly to allow Grandpa Li to have the operation with peace of mind.
She thought that Gu Chengyan must also have this factor.
"But after all, the basis of marriage is emotion, and our situation is obviously not consistent. Marriage is not a child's play. If you meet someone you really like in the future, then..."
Li Muhan paused for a moment before continuing,
"So I want to ask you about your attitude towards this marriage. Do you just accept it as it is, or do you choose to end it after the elders no longer insist on it."
As Li Muhan spoke, he observed the changes in Gu Chengyan's expression opposite him, and saw that his expression became more and more serious.
Maybe they didn't expect that they would suddenly talk about this. After all, they just went to the old house to meet their elders a few days ago.
Gu Chengyan really didn't expect that Li Muhan would say this, and the underlying meaning of these words was obviously that she wanted to end the marriage.
Are you here to find out what you are talking about?
"Then what's your attitude?"
Gu Chengyan slowly moved back and leaned on the back of the sofa without answering the question.
Li Muhan, who originally intended to listen to the answer, was obviously stunned when the other party kicked the question back to her. Wasn't she asking him?
But since she asked, she stopped beating around the bush and directly expressed her thoughts.
"You also know that I agreed to it so that my grandfather could go through the surgery with peace of mind. Originally, marriage was not in my future plan.
I have made plans not to get married for the rest of my life. You also know my family situation. I don't believe in marriage, and I don't want to face it. "
Li Muhan combined his own situation with that of the original 'Li Muhan' and said this, hoping that Gu Chengyan would naturally think of the divorce of the original owner's parents and understand why she had such thoughts.
But these words were her true thoughts. She really didn't trust marriage anymore.
She can live her whole life alone, living only for herself.
Gu Chengyan lived up to his expectations and thought about the divorce of Li Muhan's parents when he was young. Looking at Li Muhan who was obviously depressed but whose attitude was so determined, there was a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
He believed that what she just said was true and was not just made up to get out of this marriage.
It seems that the failure of her parents' marriage, coupled with the lack of companionship and love from her parents since she was a child, has brought great harm to her, but...
"No one in our Gu family will joke about marriage, nor will we divorce easily, unless we really can't maintain it, but only if we don't force each other."
Gu Chengyan spoke slowly and unhurriedly, explaining the principles of their Gu family and his own thoughts.
But the words in his words, "Divorce is not easy" shocked Li Muhan.
No, since your Gu family values marriage so much, why is the promotion of this marriage such a child's play?
Gu Chengyan saw the confusion in Li Muhan's eyes, but instead of explaining, he continued,
"Since I agreed to this marriage, I will naturally take it seriously. However, I had to step in when the company had something to do and go abroad to handle it personally. This did not take into account you, and you were hurt because of me during this period. I'm sorry. .
But we can start by getting to know each other slowly. As grandma said, cultivate feelings first.
If we still don't have feelings for each other in the end, it won't be too late to end it by then. What do you think? "
Gu Chengyan finally adopted the method of making suggestions and asked Li Muhan what he meant.
In fact, he had another thought in his mind. It might not be too strong, but it was real.
That is, he feels that living with her is also very good.
Although the two of them didn't spend a lot of time together, and they only really got in touch with each other for a few days, the overall feeling was pretty good.
He doesn't feel disgusted and doesn't feel awkward. For him, this is already very good and can be considered very special.
And now it’s a foregone conclusion, now that it’s been decided, why not have a good encounter with it!
This is his idea!
