"Don't say you're sorry." Qiao Shiyun waved her hand and interrupted her, "You are right. This child Jinglian is indeed too unruly. I know what he did wrong. But, Zijin, as your father,
Elder, I still want to ask you to give him another chance."
Zijin's red lips moved, and her fingers on the armrest of the wheelchair tightened. She raised her head and said, "...Dad, the opportunity is not in my hands. You should also know it."
Putting aside his own thoughts, he just talked about Qiao Jinglian. Now that his woman is pregnant, how could he still have any chance?
Without feelings, there is only pain. No matter what the original intention was, a marriage of five years should have come to an end by now.
For them, divorce is the best outcome.
"You haven't gotten along well yet."
Qiao Shiyun obviously disagreed, but as an elder, his tone of voice at this time was still very calm and loving, "Zijin, your marriage to Jinglian five years ago was indeed a marriage brokered by me. I also know that,
In fact, you two don't think so. You married into our Qiao family for a reason. But haven't you been in the UK for the past five years? You and Jinglian are starting from scratch.
Now that you are back, I hope you will at least spend some time and try to get along with him."
…………
Zijin lowered her eyes and said nothing because she didn't know what to say. She had already heard that Qiao Shiyun did not want her to divorce Qiao Jinglian. As a junior, and the elder in front of her was her husband's father, she
Except for agreeing with what he said, anything else... is inappropriate.
So, let’s just not say anything.
Qiao Shiyun looked at her with a low eyebrow and a submissive look. Although he didn't say anything, there was a bit of stubbornness in that silence.
"Zijin." Qiao Shiyun's eyes flashed and she frowned, "I know you don't want to, but after you marry into the Qiao family, divorce is not that easy. I know you have suffered a lot of grievances here.
But as long as dad is here, he will protect you. Give Jinglian another chance..."
"Dad." Zijin bit his lip and finally raised his head, "...if you have heard this, then you must know that it is not my fault. I really don't want to go on like this anymore. I know I must
I have failed you, but I..."
"Is it because of that Xie Lingxi?"
Qiao Shiyun frowned and interrupted Zijin's last words with a firm tone, "If it's because of Xie Lingxi, you don't have to worry about anything. I will deal with this woman. Zijin and Jinglian are at fault, but he is still young after all.
, I am your husband who has been married for 5 years. There are some things that even a slap cannot make. The reason why I let you go to Qiao's is because I want you to cultivate your relationship after marriage. Also, I want to be with you.
What you are saying is that our Qiao family is a wealthy family, and I will not allow divorce, do you understand?"
…………
Can't you understand?
What Qiao Shiyun said is that it can be advanced or retreated, both soft and hard.
There was a bitterness in Zijin's heart. There were words in her throat that were rolling over and over again, but she couldn't say them out, and she didn't have the courage. It seemed that she didn't have the qualifications.
Qiao Shiyun has made it very clear to herself that this marriage cannot be divorced.
She didn't say anything because she didn't want to agree, but she couldn't make any other excuses. It seemed that even with Xie Lingxi's pregnancy, Qiao Shiyun didn't want to admit that he was his descendant. Zijin really didn't know that he should feel happy for such a father-in-law.
Luck, or...a burden?
※※※※※
At night, Zijin tossed and turned and couldn't sleep well. Fortunately, Qiao Jinglian was not at Qiao's house that night, nor were Li Muhua and Qiao Jingting. In fact, the whole world was quiet, and the thumping sound of her heart was particularly obvious, but she was.
Can't sleep.
Different pictures and sounds flashed through her mind, entangled in her thoughts.
I had a splitting headache, and my injured knee seemed to be aching in the deep darkness.
…………
Divorce, divorce... She really wanted a divorce, but Qiao Shiyun's words simply didn't work. So, should she start with Qiao Jinglian?
If he insists on divorce, I believe Qiao Shiyun will not embarrass herself anymore, right?
Zijin leaned sideways, resting his arm on his pillow, thinking that he should go to Qiao's tomorrow. This problem always has to be solved and cannot be avoided. It is better to have a good talk with Qiao Jinglian.
When she woke up the next morning, she found that her knees didn't hurt much anymore. Dr. Xiao had told her to use a wheelchair, but Zijin felt that she could walk today. As long as she walked slower, it shouldn't be a problem.
When she wants to go to the company, it's always awkward to sit in a wheelchair.
After changing her clothes, she simply washed up and went downstairs. She found that there was no one in the restaurant. The servant came up and asked her if she wanted to have breakfast. Zijin looked at the time and saw that it was already 8:30, and waved his hand.
"No, I'm going to work."
As soon as he arrived at the company, he found that Gu Yanshen and Qiao Jinglian were not there, and the regular meeting in the morning had not been held. Zijin sat in the company all morning bored, and finally made it to lunch time, and then made an appointment with Mu Chenchu to go to the west corner opposite the company.
Dining room.
…………
"so what?"
Mu Chenchu placed the cut steak in front of Zijin, then reached for her plate and continued cutting, "Qiao Shiyun doesn't agree, right? Oh, of course he has to consider his son, but
To be honest, isn't the mistress Xie already pregnant? I thought that the average wealthy family attaches great importance to blood and the like. Even if it can't be corrected, then being a concubine will do. Otherwise, where will he come from?
Two sons? This is not the path we have taken."
Zijin picked up the knife and fork, picked a piece and put it into his mouth to chew slowly, "...I don't know, he just told me that I don't have to worry about Xie Lingxi."
Maybe it's because I didn't get a good rest last night, and my spirit is not right today.
"Then what do you think?"
Zijin sighed, stretched out his hand and pressed his eyebrows, "I want to have a good talk with Qiao Jinglian."
"Will he listen to you?" Mu Chenchu expressed doubts, "Tell me, is that guy mentally abnormal? He was looking forward to divorcing you before, but now that you have filed for divorce, he has become violent with you.
, and made your legs look like this! What a fool."
Zijin raised his index finger and made a silent gesture, "Be careful, walls have ears. I don't want to think about anything right now. I want to have a good talk with Qiao Jinglian. At least I need to understand his thoughts."
Mu Chenchu sighed for a while, and expressed deeply - this woman is really like the sea when she enters a wealthy family.
After lunch, Mu Chenchu said that she would go to the Human Resources Department to hand over the work at hand, because during this period she and Zijin would be responsible for Su Junyan's project. The two of them entered Qiao's together because Zijin's knee was injured.
I was injured a little, so I walked slowly. This time was during my lunch break, and there was still more than an hour before I officially went to work.
There were not many people coming and going in the company. When Zijin and Mu Chenchu were walking towards the elevator, they happened to see a few people standing at the entrance of the elevator dedicated to the president.
The leading man wore a dark-colored suit that was crisp and set off his already tall figure, making him look even more dazzling.
Standing next to him was Ji Yang, his assistant, who was respectfully reporting some situations to him. Gu Yanshen stood at the door of the elevator, his hands casually stuffed in his trousers pockets. His assistant was talking to the side, and he nodded from time to time.
Looking in Jin's direction, what he saw was his perfect profile.
"Hey, Mr. Gu."
Mu Chenchu raised his eyebrows slightly, winked at Zijin, pushed her towards the elevator entrance.
"...Chenchen, don't, don't walk so fast."
Zijin's face changed slightly. Her knees still hurt a little and she couldn't walk too fast. Mu Chenchu pulled her forward and rushed forward. She could only follow and walked forward. After taking two steps, she felt a little pain in her knees. She quickly grabbed them with her backhand.
Mu Chenchu stopped and said, "Don't walk so fast, my knees hurt."
Mu Chenchu seemed not to have heard anything and pulled Zijin towards Gu Yanshen. Before Zijin could react, he felt his body suddenly lighten up. Mu Chenchu, this "harmful friend", actually
Pushing her to Gu Yanshen's side, she staggered and fell backwards, falling into a generous and familiar embrace very "smoothly".
"..." Mu, Chen, Chu! You little witch!
Zi Jin was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
Mu Chenchu looked surprised and apologetic, "Sorry, Mr. Gu, I was walking in such a hurry just now that I didn't notice you standing here. Zijin's knees hurt a little, so she didn't stand firm." This woman.
It's such a pity not to go filming, "Zijin, are you okay?"
If looks could kill, Mu Chenchu would have been riddled with wounds by now. Zijin gritted his teeth and said word by word: "It's okay."
"It's okay."
Mu Chenchu stretched out his hand to help her, but when he reached halfway, his cell phone suddenly rang. She naturally took out her cell phone to answer the call, said a few words, and then said to Zijin: "I
My friend came to see me for something, I'll go out for a while and you can go up by yourself."
"...Chenchen."
Zi Jin tried in vain to stop her, but Mu Chenchu obviously felt that he was just a light bulb at this moment, and it was best to extinguish him.
"Didn't I ask you to rest at home today?" The deep male voice behind her quickly made Zijin's whole body tense up. Only then did she realize that she was still lying in Gu Yanshen's arms. This was Qiao's family. She struggled to want to
She jumped out, but Gu Yanshen's hands were holding her slim waist tightly. Zijin couldn't move. Before she could open her mouth to say anything, Gu Yanshen's hot breath suddenly came closer to her, "Why move? Isn't she injured? Let you
Take a good rest and not rest, let you sit in a wheelchair and still refuse to walk, you are deliberately going against me, huh?"
That last note, low and deep, was like the softest feather, brushing against the tip of his heart. Zijin's breathing became rapid, and he was even more confused, "...Mr. Gu, this is the company."
"Um."
Gu Yanshen responded casually, without any emotion at all. He turned around and glanced at Ji Yang. He seemed to be a transparent person. He seemed to have nothing inappropriate about Gu Yanshen holding his brother's wife so blatantly.
After receiving Gu Yanshen's look, he nodded knowingly and left.
The double doors of the elevator slowly opened at the same time.
Gu Yanshen's hand holding Zijin's slender waist tightened slightly, and he walked directly into the elevator while holding her in his arms. Then he pressed the door door button, stretched out his hand to press her shoulders, and let her lean against the elevator wall.
The tall body closed the double doors of the elevator completely, and he leaned over her body. His narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and the smile raised at the corners of his lips was dazzling, "Just now, you threw yourself into my arms."
hug?"
…………
"Mr. Gu, this is the company!"
"But this is my elevator. You can rest assured to tell me what's on your mind. There are no cameras and no one will hear it."
"I didn't!" Zijin struggled for a while, but there was no accident. She couldn't struggle away. She bit her lip and glared at Gu Yanshen angrily, "I was careless just now, you know!"
"What do I know?"
"You - you clearly know that I was careless just now!" Zi Jin was so angry that he clenched his fist and landed on his chest, "Can you look like a CEO? Even if this is your special elevator, then
You can’t be so unscrupulous.”
"I don't look good?"
Gu Yanshen chuckled softly, and a layer of light suddenly appeared in his eyes. Zijin felt dazzled. Some people are so outstanding that they are like monsters. They can always touch people's bodies and minds too easily. If you are not careful,
Once you are addicted to it, you can’t extricate yourself. “Are you starting to care about me now? Huh?”
“…”
Zijin's face was as red as a cooked shrimp. The man's burning breath was so close that she couldn't avoid it or escape. It seemed like this was the only way to do it. She was forced to accept it. Her heart almost jumped out of her throat.
, that ambiguous atmosphere spread around the two of them——
Gu Yanshen, he always has this ability. When he sees her, he can easily arouse all her emotions...
"Does your knee still hurt?"
His hands that were originally supporting her sides moved slightly, slowly lowered them, and pressed them on her waist. He lowered his eyes and saw that she was wearing a skirt, light green, very artistic, and suitable for her.
But it's not the one he bought her yesterday.
"Stop pressing me like this, it won't hurt me anymore!" Zijin said angrily: "Mr. Gu, you are such a big man, do you have to squeeze your weight on me every time? I am a woman! I
Much weaker than you! Can you stay away from me?"
The smile in Gu Yanshen's eyes grew stronger, and he reached out to lift her chin. The curve of the corners of his mouth was very charming, and his eyes were extremely ambiguous, "You can change it. If you want to suppress me, you can."
“…”
Zijin's face flushed for a while, but at this moment, the double doors of the elevator dinged and opened slowly. Gu Yanshen's fingers were smoothly lowered from her chin, but the posture of holding her slim waist remained unchanged. Zijin returned the favor in one breath.
He raised it in his throat, but out of the corner of his eye he had already spotted the man standing at the elevator door with a gloomy expression——
