Chapter 235: Flustered, emotional injury (3) First love, first kiss and menarche
Before he could stand up and take a step, his wrist was grabbed and pulled, and he fell uncontrollably into a strong embrace.
Sitting on Long Pei's lap, his wrist was tightly held in his palm, the posture was very ambiguous.
She raised her head to meet his dark and penetrating eyes, "——What are you doing?"
Long Pei's thin lips curled up in a half-smile, and he tightened his strength on his fingertips to hold her tightly. His voice became softer, "It's nothing, I just feel like I don't know you well enough!"
Huh? Gu Mingxi raised her eyebrows slightly, not understanding what he meant.
"Sorry!" Long Pei gently stroked her face with his fingers, lovingly, tenderly, and shining under the thick eyelashes.
Gu Mingxi still didn't speak. He... figured it out?
"Actually, no matter what you have experienced, I don't care." What I care more about is your feelings.
"No." She said calmly, her eyes serious and serious, "Never."
She is still the clean Gu Mingxi who only belongs to him.
Long Pei already knew it when he heard her say it, and he could see through her thoughts sharply. He just deliberately teased her. Seeing that something was wrong with her expression, he couldn't bear to go any further...
It's just that he's not good at explaining. Mingxi is a smart woman, and she should understand some things just to the point.
"I know." Long Pei nodded, the smile in his eyes fleeting.
The atmosphere was weird and ambiguous. The provocative Gu Mingxi didn't know how to answer his words, and struggled in his arms, "I'm going to rest."
Long Pei didn't let go, kissed the corners of her lips with his lips, and said in a low voice, "Mingxi?"
She stopped and looked at him, waiting for him to speak.
"It wasn't very busy at first, but now it's really busy." A wry smile appeared on his lips. The names of the people she mentioned must be checked now.
In fact, he didn't tell Mingxi that when he found out about Mingxi's disappearance in country e, people from country a were around. It is easy to think that Mingxi's disappearance was caused by country a.
Lian Mo's miscalculation was that he had discovered this clue first and blocked it strictly. Otherwise, with Huo Linmo's impulsive temperament, he would definitely have been in trouble with Country A as soon as he discovered this clue.
What Lian Mo never expected was that because he had some friendship with Jin Xishuo, he was sure that Jin Xishuo would never attack Gu Mingxi!
Several people were eliminated, and the most suspicious one was Lian Mo. Although his motive had not yet been confirmed, when he was about to leave for Country M, it was revealed that Gu Mingxi had lured him to see the fake Gu Mingxi in Country E.
I am already convinced in my heart that this matter has nothing to do with Country M!
First, he tried to sow the friendly relations between the three countries c/a/e. After the failure, he did not give up and tried to sow the relations between the two countries c/e again. It is obvious who benefited the most!
It's not that Long Pei didn't know about Lian Mo's ambition, but he didn't expect that Lian Mo's courage was greater than his ambition.
Gu Mingxi knew that Lian Mo's matter was a difficult matter, so he comforted him, "The current situation is not something Lian Mo can just do whatever he wants."
Without a legitimate reason, it is easy to become a public enemy once you take the initiative to start a war.
Long Pei clenched her cold fingers and said in a low voice, "The incident in Iraq is a good example. It's just that some people forget that he is not leading the United States."
Lian Mo doesn't dare to provoke directly now, and he plays these tricks secretly, because he is not afraid of the strength of country M; once he provokes the other three countries head-on, he will become the eternal sinner of country M.
Gu Mingxi understood what he meant.
"I will help you." Although she didn't know what she could do for him, as long as it was something she could do, she would definitely help him!
Long Pei pursed his lips, seemingly smiling, and rubbed her long hair with his fingers.
In fact, her staying by his side was the greatest help to him.
◇◇◇◇◇◇
The next day.
Long Pei returned to the office early in the morning to handle matters and didn't even have time to accompany them for breakfast.
Gu Mingxi felt that his health was almost in good condition, and he did not want to delay A Li's studies, so he forced him to go to school and study normally.
Near noon, she received a call from Long Pei. He couldn't come back to have lunch with her, so she asked him to do his own thing. After lunch, she told Ru Bing to prepare the car and she wanted to go out.
In fact, as soon as the car left the presidential palace, Nan Si reported Gu Mingxi's whereabouts to Long Pei.
Long Pei probably guessed where she wanted to go, so he didn't stop her. He just ordered Nan Si to have someone follow her secretly, and not to disturb her if nothing happened.
The car parked at the gate of Qin's house. It was mid-afternoon and the sun was scorching hot. As soon as I got off the car, I felt a heat wave hitting my face.
Gu Mingxi reported her name and was welcomed in by the butler. As soon as she served tea and left, she heard a respectful voice: "Young Master."
She turned around and saw Xiao Han coming downstairs in casual clothes and slippers. He was thin and haggard. When his eyes met hers, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Ah...Mr. Xiao..." I instinctively wanted to call out Ayuan, but realized that the situation was not right and immediately changed my mind.
Xiao Han looked cold and walked to sit opposite her. "I feel relieved to see that you are safe and sound."
Gu Mingxi's expression was startled.
Xiao Han did not explain. Although Long Pei announced to the public that Gu Mingxi was in poor health and needed to rest, he knew that something must have happened, just like the claim that Gu Mingxi went abroad to relax in the past two years was just an excuse.
"I'm fine." Gu Mingxi pursed her lips and hesitated before asking, "How are you?"
Xiao Han didn't say anything and looked at the housekeeper. The housekeeper wisely led all the servants to retreat, leaving only Gu Mingxi and him in the entire hall.
"Not very good." He said, his voice paused, "My mother is in jail, my father has left the family, Nini has also left, and I am the only one who is still here."
The past glory of the Qin family has completely declined, and the family is in decline. Those who still have some power in the political arena avoid them, and Qin Zhan doesn't care about their affairs.
Gu Mingxi felt a little sad when she heard that. She held the cup with her fingers and murmured, "——Actually, you can leave here."
Leave here and start a new life.
Xiao Han leaned back, with a sarcastic smile on his lips, "I can't leave my mother alone!" Even though Ye Qing was in prison, he had to stay in order to find ways to keep Ye Qing alive and well in prison.
.
Gu Mingxi lowered her head and sipped her tea. She actually had something to say to A Yuan today. But seeing him guarding the Qin family like this made her feel a little uncomfortable.
If I hadn't changed my story in court, everything would be different now.
"Ayuan..."
"Xixi..."
They were silent for a while and then spoke in unison, looking at each other, feeling embarrassed, helpless, or happy that they still have such a tacit understanding now?
"You say it first." Gu Mingxi put down the cup.
"Xixi, I just want to ask you one thing -" Xiao Han did not give in, staring at Gu Mingxi firmly and sharply, and a solemn voice sounded, "Is he Qin Zheng?"
Gu Mingxi's expression changed calmly, and he crossed his fingers and tightened, "What you said is very strange. Qin Zheng died in that fire. Who is he?"
Sorry, even if I knew you were A Yuan, I couldn't help but lie to you.
"You know who I am referring to!" Xiao Han's voice was a little heavier. Seeing Gu Mingxi's calm expression, he was determined not to let go. Suddenly, a sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he leaned back and asked himself, "
I never understood why my father repeatedly advised me not to be his enemy, why my father divorced my mother in the end, regardless of whether the Qin family lived or died; I didn’t understand why you like him so much, but now... I understand."
Everything is understood.
Because the real Long Pei died long ago, the current Long Pei is Qin Zheng, the son of Qin Zhan, and his half-brother.
Gu Mingxi didn't speak, or she didn't know what to say, and she made many mistakes. Although they knew each other well, some words were better left to rot in their stomachs forever.
Xiao Han didn't speak anymore, just looked at her, looking straight at her. The girl he liked ended up marrying his brother, and his brother personally sent him to prison and was so cruel that he wanted to force him to death.
"——A Yuan." After a long silence, Gu Mingxi suddenly spoke and looked at him with clear eyes, "This is the last time I call you this. I'm sorry about your mother, but I won't regret myself."
Choice. I’m sorry!”
Guilt is one thing, choice is another.
Even if she had to do it all over again, she would still make the same choice because she couldn't let anything happen to A Zheng.
Xiao Han's spine stiffened silently. He knew how important that man was in her heart, surpassing everything else.
"Do you still remember when we first met?" He suddenly spoke, and the topic changed so quickly that Gu Mingxi was startled.
"About the end of my eight-year-old year, it snowed heavily the day Uncle Qin brought me back."
Gu Mingxi will always remember that day, how disgusted Ye Qing's eyes were, and how much Ye Ni hated her look. Only Qin Yuan was as warm as water, stretched out his warm hand to hold her cold hand, and welcomed her to Qin's house.
"No." Qin Yuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I've seen you before that."
Gu Mingxi was stunned. She couldn't remember when she had met Qin Yuan before.
"Probably not long after you arrived at Longlin when you were seven years old, Qin Zhan once took me outside Longlin. Through the iron fence, I saw you wearing a pink princess dress sitting on the grass and counting petals. Your voice was sweet and waxy, obviously very beautiful.
Seriously, I don’t know why I just want to laugh after watching it.”
Probably because she still remembered that time, Gu Mingxi couldn't help but raise the corners of her eyes.
If she and Qin Zheng were childhood sweethearts, then who was he?
No one knew how happy he was when he saw his father bringing Mingxi home. He could finally play with this cute little sister and protect her.
She grew up by his side, and he participated in all of her first love, her first kiss, and her menarche; her most innocent and beautiful years were when he was by her side, taking care of her carefully in the palm of his hand, and doing his best to protect her.
Why did he lose her in the end, and even lost her heart together.
Gu Mingxi never expected that there would be such a period, but she had no idea that Qin Yuan was standing outside watching her.
To be continued...
