Xia Tong hugged the hot water bottle and sat on the sofa. She began to panic for no reason. She was suddenly confused. Did her persistence for so long make any sense?
Should she just choose to let go, accept his conditions, get married, and become a young mistress of the Qin family raised in a cage?
After all, it's better for everyone.
But...another unwilling voice in her head forced her to give in at this moment. The battle hadn't even started yet, but she was ready to abandon her armor and surrender at this moment?
No, she won't give in.
Just when she was in a state of confusion, the doorbell rang. Xia Tong put down the hot water bottle, walked over wrapped in a sheet, and opened the door. When she saw Gu Haoran outside the door, she couldn't help but be startled: "Why are you here?
"
He was dressed casually today. When he heard this, he smiled at her and said, "Why can't I come?" After saying this, he seemed to be afraid of being locked out by her, so he simply slipped in before her, leaning against the door behind him, smiling like a thief.
Come on.
"Gu Haoran!" Xia Tong lowered his face: "Didn't I make it clear to you?"
"Xia Tong, I thought about it. You can choose to break up, but I can also choose to refuse. I won't interfere with your rights, but you can't try to deprive me of my rights!" He was playing rogue seriously.
Xia Tong was a little dazed by his talk of rights and obligations. Seeing that he couldn't get rid of him, he simply leaned on the sofa and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
Seeing that she didn't drive him away as resolutely as usual, the man had a wry smile, then he came to her side and said, "Baby Tong... I miss you very much these days..."
Xia Tong turned away and ignored him.
He didn't give up, and put his hand around her armpit, wrapping it around her belly, taking advantage of her carelessly.
The big palm that appeared inexplicably on his stomach made Xia Tong sit up reflexively, turned around and looked at him with a serious expression: "Gu Haoran, I ask you not to do this, we have broken up."
"But I didn't agree." He retorted.
"Gu Haoran, can you stop being such a rogue?" Xia Tong was completely helpless by him.
"I've always been like this...", he said with a smile: "Baby Tong, don't you know best?"
"You..." Xia Tong was speechless. The man in front of him had already taken the phrase "a shameless person is invincible" to the extreme, and Xia Tong was speechless.
Before she could react, he wrapped his arms around her and hugged her to his chest. Xia Tong was startled and was about to struggle when he suddenly whispered above her head: "Don't move, I'm very tired..."
"
The voice was very low, faint, and seemed to be suppressing something. The confused begging voice seemed to have traveled through a thousand years of waiting and a hundred years of loneliness, and came to her tired and desolate...
"I..." Xia Tong's hand on his chest froze, and finally slowly lowered it.
He... seems to be very wrong today.
"What happened?" she asked.
He didn't speak, but the arms around her waist gradually tightened, so tight that they were almost suffocating. A face appeared strangely pale, and the lips were so pale that they lost their color.
"She's dead." He said suddenly.
What?! Who is dead?! Xia Tong was surprised, why could she not understand him?
"She's dead..." he repeated again.
Before she could prepare herself, he suddenly lowered his head and kissed her. The tip of his tongue gently pushed away her teeth. There was a faint bitter taste of tobacco in his mouth, but the taste was not objectionable. The tip of his tongue softly and softly touched her.
Pick her up and get entangled...
There is no intrusion that is too forceful, just like a slow fire, it penetrates inch by inch and cannot be released, repeating different leaps over and over again.
Xia Tong wanted to push him away, but the sadness that spread across his body at this moment was so strong that her struggling hand finally fell silently.
When his lips left hers, she looked into his eyes and whispered: "Gu Haoran, I'm sorry..."
****** ******
When he woke up the next day, there was no one in the living room. Xia Tong lifted the blanket from his body and sat up. Unexpectedly, there was a pile of paper cranes in various colors on the coffee table in front of the sofa.
, piled all over the table, some even fell to the floor.
Xia Tong bent down and picked it up. The paper crane in his hand was lifelike, and it was obvious that the person who folded it was very attentive.
He folded this all by himself last night? But why? Xia Tong was confused.
Thinking of the 'she' that Gu Haoran kept talking in her ears last night, who was it?
Why did he say she was dead?
All kinds of mysteries came up at the same time. Xia Tong's head hurt just thinking about it, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
Her stomach was already growling with hunger, and then she remembered that she seemed to have eaten nothing since yesterday. After getting dressed, she went downstairs and decided to buy something to eat.
After eating a bowl of hot soup noodles, Xia Tong was somewhat satisfied. When he walked out of the rice noodle shop, a phone call suddenly came through.
Xia Tong looked at the word 'Qin Mushi' that kept beating on the caller ID, and her joyful mood suddenly fell to the bottom.
She pressed the answer button and said, "Is something wrong?"
His voice was slow and lazy, as if he had just woken up: "The three-day period has come. I wonder how you are thinking about it?"
Xia Tong stood at the door of the store, biting her lip and saying nothing. From time to time, customers coming in and out of the rice noodle store looked at her strangely, but she didn't realize it.
"Xia Tong, I sincerely advise you, you won't get any benefits from filing a lawsuit with me. You should know that Di Sheng has the best team of lawyers in City A and even in the country. Even Bai Bai
, they can all be blamed by the judge, what leverage do you think you have to fight with me, Guaiguai?", His tone was full of ridicule: "So you might as well marry me, for you or Guaiguai, it's all good.
The best place to stay.”
When this man talks, he is still as arrogant and unforgiving as before. Even if he is asking for help, he must raise his stature and act like he is kind-hearted and wants to reward you.
It's a pity that Xia Tong doesn't accept this trick.
If he had tried to persuade her nicely at this moment, she might still hesitate, but he had already shown a condescending attitude. If she really agreed to him, she would be really being mean.
Thinking of this, she smiled: "Dear Mr. Qin, you misunderstood..." She said: "I think marriage is a very serious matter. I will not decide to marry Guaiguai just because of someone else's casual words."
The fate of half my life. As for the lawsuit, I will definitely fight it. I fully believe in the strength of the legal team behind Mr. Qin, but I also believe in the fairness and selflessness of the law."
After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone without waiting for his answer. After hanging up, she still couldn't calm down, so she couldn't help opening the back cover, took out the battery, threw it on the ground, and stepped on it several times...
…
"Damn it, Qin Mujie, make you proud?! Make you have eyes on the top of your head?! Make you arrogant?! I'll trample you to death, trample you to death, trample you to death, you, you, you!!!"
When passing customers saw this scene, a chill came over their backs...
