Two days later, Gao Ziran called me crying and told me that a preliminary conclusion had been made on the third uncle's issue and he would arrive in the city in the afternoon. Gao Zijian and I were waiting at the door of the court. According to regulations, visits were not allowed.
I decided to go to the hospital to look for Liu Meiting. I didn’t want to back down until I reached the last step. If the Liu family is the only one who can help now, I wonder if Liu Meiting can help?
With this thought, I walked towards her ward, and the nurse stopped me and said that the patient had been discharged.
I called anxiously, but my phone indicated that it was turned off. It turned out that both of them were deliberately avoiding me.
In desperation, I went to find Gao Zijian. When I saw him, he looked decadent and told me in despair that the first trial was over and that my third uncle would be sentenced to death for rebelling.
At that moment, the entire Gao family was in chaos.
I have no choice anymore.
In the afternoon, Gao Zijian still returned to the compound, and I called Liu Shihan. Liu Shihan answered the call quickly and asked me to meet at an outdoor cafe.
I never thought that at this moment, the person who could help the Gao family would be Liu Shihan.
The feeling of being controlled by others is very bad, but what should we do? Many things in the world are unfair, and the weak and the strong prey on each other. This can be fully demonstrated in the Gao family's experience during this period.
We have reached May 20th. We went back and forth, and finally, I still have to ask Liu Shihan for help.
She seemed to be in a good mood today, with water-red nail polish on her fingertips, a nice outfit, and her hair tied back, and she was full of energy. Compared with me, who was dressed in dark colors, she was in heaven and on earth.
"What to drink?" She looked at me, her eyebrows arched, and asked with a smile.
"No need," I shook my head and said straight to the point, "Zijian's third uncle has been sent to this city. I want to ask you, do the things you said before still count?"
Liu Shihan nodded and asked, "What do you think?"
"Okay," I took a breath and asked directly: "What do you want me to do before I'm willing to help?"
Liu Shihan looked at me and said: "It's not what I want you to do, but what do you want to do yourself? May 28th should be the day when Gao Zijian and I get engaged. Before that, what do you think you can do?
?”
May 28th. In other words, Liu Shihan has given me a time limit. Before then, let me get out.
I clenched my fists, my nails dug into my flesh, but I still controlled my emotions and said, "Before that, I will break up with Gao Zijian."
"No, I have asked dad to investigate the third uncle's matter very clearly. He only has two days." Liu Shihan refused to give up.
Two days! I screamed secretly in my heart, it’s only two days? Is she so anxious?
"What's wrong? Do you think two days are too short? Well, you can take care of the third uncle's matters yourself!" Liu Shihan looked at me impatiently, took her handbag, and stood up to leave.
"Don't..." I yelled in humiliation and said, "I know, I will prepare when I get back, and you will prepare too."
"Chen Xiaojia, don't blame me for not reminding you. Li Shuyuan is respectful to me now. The Gao family has almost collapsed. If I can get the third uncle out, I can get the third uncle in. If you want to play tricks with me, over there in your hometown
, I can’t say either.”
I nodded and ran directly to the other side of the road.
Crowds of people, blaring cars, hawkers walking in a hurry, and beggars kneeling on the streets, all the images passed before my eyes. I looked at the time and saw that it was already noon.
In other words, Gao Zijian and I have only been together for two and a half days.
It's been two and a half days, what should I do to say goodbye? Leaving silently will not work. Gao Zijian already has enough worries. If I leave silently, he will not only come to me, but may waste more time.
.
The only thing I can do is to say it directly.
Whenever I think of this, my heart twitches, it hurts, it hurts a lot.
I bit my lips and called my mother and told her that everything would be fine in the next two days. My mother kept nagging on the other end of the phone and finally hung up. I am not filial. If it weren't for me, they might not have to use it at all.
Bear this experience. I am unfilial. When they needed me most, I couldn't leave.
After hanging up the phone, I ran directly towards the den. My steps were cautious, because with every step I took, I unconsciously caressed my belly.
I think long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Gao Zijian is as stubborn as me. Since we are breaking up, we should continue to hide the child's affairs.
I went to the supermarket downstairs to buy vegetables, chicken wings, carp, and ribs. When I passed by the flower shop, I bought two hanging baskets and put them on the balcony.
After cleaning it inside and out, I dragged out the suitcase and started packing.
The door suddenly opened. It was already eight o'clock in the evening. I turned around and looked at the door. Gao Zijian didn't even change his shoes, but he walked towards me with an excited look on his face.
"Xiaojia, we have some clues about the third uncle's matter!" He held my hand and smiled brightly.
Liu Shihan acted very quickly. She only agreed to my promise in the morning, and now she has something to show for it.
"Xiaojia, why are you unhappy?" Gao Zijian looked at me with some confusion, his eyes resting on the suitcase on the ground, and asked: "What are you doing? Why are you packing your clothes?"
"Oh, it's just...it's too messy at home," I hurriedly closed the suitcase, took Gao Zijian's hand, and said, "Come on, I cooked several of your favorite dishes today, be sure to eat more."
Gao Zijian relaxed a little, smiled, held my hand, and said, "Xiaojia, it's great to have you."
I turned my back to Gao Zijian and didn't dare to look at him directly. I was afraid that if I took one more look, I wouldn't be able to make up my mind. I changed the subject and asked, "How is auntie? Is she feeling well?"
"I've already called mom," Gao Zijian hugged me from behind, rested his chin on my shoulder, and tightly wrapped his hands around my waist, saying, "Xiaojia, as long as the third uncle's matter is resolved,
, Dad’s side doesn’t have much of a problem, our suffering will pass.”
I know, I know everything, but it's a pity that I can't be with you anymore.
"Xiaojia, I have worked so hard for you these days. When I finish all these things, I will definitely take you out to have some fun and make it up to you." Gao Zijian's voice was full of joy.
"Look at you, you're hugging me so tightly, I can't even serve the food." I sniffed gently and signaled Gao Zijian to let go of me.
"Don't move," Gao Zijian continued to hold me, the excitement in his voice had diminished, and the tip of his nose was close to my neck, itching and warm, "Xiaojia, how can I face this alone without you?
Without you, I don’t think I would be as strong as I am now.”
"Here we go again," I sniffed gently and said, "Aren't there Li Shu, Zheng Kai and the others?"
"You know what I mean," Gao Zijian hugged me tighter, "I'm so scared. It's hard for me to imagine what I would be like if one day you weren't by my side."
My body suddenly froze, and the hand holding the dinner plate could no longer lift. I turned around and looked at Gao Zijian, forced a smile, and said, "Gao Zijian, can you promise me something?"
My voice was choked because I had forced back tears. I bit my lip and said, "If we...can't be together..."
Before I finished speaking, Gao Zijian had already hugged me, pushed me against the wall, and said domineeringly: "You are not allowed to say such things, how can we not be together? We will talk about it later, I will be punished in bed!"
My face is pressed against his chest, and I can feel the hot heartbeat in his chest. Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, I will leave him.
Moreover, it must be done in the most cruel way.
Gao Zijian ate a lot for dinner, and he ate three big bowls. I haven't seen Gao Zijian so happy for a long time. While he was eating, he praised me for how well the food was cooked. At the end, he didn't forget to rub it against my mouth.
I like Gao Zijian like this, I like that he has no pressure, and I like his hearty smile. Of course, I think that after this change in the Gao family, he will become more mature.
It's a pity that I can't accompany you to this man who is about to mature.
Gao Zijian wanted to stay, so he jumped into bed after taking a shower. I was still sorting out the things in the closet, categorizing his underwear, shirts, suits and ties. Gao Zijian called me, but I ignored him. He simply walked out of the closet.
He jumped out from under the covers and pulled me to the bed.
We haven't done it for a long time. Firstly, there have been too many things recently, and secondly, there is still a child in my belly. Gao Zijian was in a good mood today, and he was extremely gentle to me. He placed a delicate kiss on my lips, cautiously, but
Also greedy.
The tip of his tongue wandered across my lips, making me hum uncontrollably. Slowly, it landed on my earlobes, neck, and then ran towards my collarbone.
Takako Kenta wanted it too much, I could clearly feel it, until his lips moved around in front of me, I had already entered the state.
In the past, he paid more attention to his own feelings, but that time after we got drunk in the den, he cherished me even more every time.
"Zijian..." When Gao Zijian's lips fell between my legs, I couldn't help but scratch his back and said, "Later, can you be gentler?"
Gao Zijian was stunned for a second, then said with a smile: "I want to be gentler, but you have to ask him."
Before I could reply, Gao Zijian had already grabbed my hand and stretched it out directly.
Combining the heat, boiling heat, and sweat, we slept deeply that night.
There were many procedures to go through for the third uncle's affairs. I didn't see Gao Zijian the whole next day. I went to the company to go through the annual leave procedures. When I came out of the personnel department, I saw Sun Yiqing standing not far away.
He nodded gently and was about to leave, but he called him into the office.
"Chen Xiaojia, the Liu family has been very active these past two days. It is said that they are still preparing for the engagement ceremony. Does this have anything to do with you?" Sun Yiqing asked me abruptly as soon as the office door closed.
Some things can be seen more clearly if they are not among them. I do not deny whether Sun Yiqing heard something. He simply lowered his head and did not respond or refute.
"Does Gao Zijian know about the child?" Sun Yiqing asked coldly when I didn't answer.
Of course I don't know why he is so angry. Shouldn't I be the most angry person?
"Chen Xiaojia, why do you think you have such a stubborn temper? The Liu family can willingly help the Gao family. Do you know how much care is needed inside and outside? You are still preparing for the hotel banquet. I don't believe you don't know at all. Honestly
Tell me, does Gao Zijian want to betray you? Does he want to let you and the child down? "
This is the first time I have seen the gentle Sun Yiqing get angry. He leaned on his desk, his eyes were burning, the corners of his mouth were sinking, and his aura was also aggressive. His aura was different from Gao Zijian, who had the same aura.
An explosion of domineering energy, and Sun Yiqing's aura exploded from the inside out.
At this time, he was more indifferent than Gao Zijian.
I sighed softly and said, "Gao Zijian will not betray me, it's okay."
Sun Yiqing also seemed a little stunned. He took a step forward and walked up to me and said, "Chen Xiaojia, I don't believe that Gao Zijian didn't betray you. So what happened to the Liu family preparing for the engagement ceremony? Don't tell me, Gao Zijian doesn't know.
"
"Don't ask," I took a breath and said, "I'm going out first."
"Chen Xiaojia!" I just turned around, and Sun Yiqing had already yelled. I turned around in shock, his eyes had turned scarlet, and said, "Am I so distrusted by you? What happened?
?Can’t you tell me?”
I was a little helpless, at least because of Sun Yiqing's irrational behavior at the moment, but I was also very happy because he also cared about me.
I shook my head stubbornly and said, "Anyway, don't worry about this matter. It has nothing to do with Gao Zijian."
After saying that, I turned around and walked towards the door of the office. Suddenly there was a force behind me. By the time I reacted, Sun Yiqing had already pressed me against the door.
I looked at Sun Yiqing in shock. He was very close to me. He had an arm above my shoulder, surrounding me in his arms.
The tip of my nose was the scent of him. We were so close that our breaths even intertwined.
"Sun..."
"Chen Xiaojia, let me share the burden with you, okay?" Sun Yiqing interrupted me, speaking confidently and domineeringly.
Today, I saw another side of a gentle man, a domineering side.
I didn't dare to look at Sun Yiqing, so I turned away and whispered: "I can't say, I..."
Sun Yiqing got a little closer to me and strangled my wrist, becoming even more domineering.
"you……"
"Chen Xiaojia, the child's problem is not a small problem. Gao Zijian has the right to know. If you don't tell me what happened, I will call him immediately and tell him. You can figure it out yourself!"
I looked at Sun Yiqing nervously, and suddenly my nose became sore and tears flowed out.
"Don't tell him..." I choked and said, "We will break up tonight."
Sun Yiqing finally let go of his hand, and I also felt weak and fell down directly. He grabbed me, hugged me and sat on the chair, and asked in a panic: "How is it? How are you now?"
"
I threw away Sun Yiqing's hand in a panic, with tears already falling from my face, and said: "Do you think the Liu family will help casually? Do you think they are the kind of idiots who let others take advantage of them? Sun Yiqing, I want to break up with Gao Zijian, without me
, all the problems of the Gao family can be solved!"
Sun Yiqing was stunned and looked at me dumbfounded. Finally, he let out a long sigh and said, "So, Gao Zijian's future still depends on you?"
"Don't talk about him like that!" I held the armrest and looked at Sun Yiqing angrily. I felt that the attack in my tone was too strong, so I lowered my voice and said, "He doesn't know anything, and I never miss him."
Know."
Sun Yiqing said that he would not tell anyone and was willing to help me.
I said no, I can solve my own problems.
But, I didn’t dare anymore. So I could only drag my suitcase out of the community after seven o’clock in the evening.
Gao Zijian's phone happened to call, I glanced at it and pressed hang up.
"Chen Xiaojia!" A voice came to my ears. I turned around and saw Gao Zijian walking towards me angrily.
I dragged the suitcase and took a step back. When I saw him looking at me with a sullen face, and then looking at the suitcase, I knew that some things were simply unavoidable.
"What are you going to do?" Gao Zijian's voice was a little cold, "Hang up the phone and drag the suitcase. Chen Xiaojia, tell me, what are you going to do?"
I took a breath and was speechless.
"Chen Xiaojia, what's wrong with you?" Gao Zijian took another step closer to me and said, "If you have any questions, you can tell me. Why did you leave quietly? Come on, follow me home."
I took a step back and avoided Gao Zijian's hand.
He hung his hands in the air with some annoyance and continued: "I know that I have indeed ignored you during this period, but you also know that I can't leave at all. Xiaojia, stop making trouble. If you have anything to do, you can just tell me
I said, you don’t have to...you don’t have to run away from home, right?"
I lowered my head, not daring to look at Gao Zijian. My legs were shaking so much that I couldn't even say a word that I had thought about.
"Chen Xiaojia, have I made you feel annoying?" Gao Zijian took a breath and asked me.
I shook my head.
"Then...is it because I have nothing now?" Gao Zijian asked me tentatively, "Because of the money I owe?"
I shook my head again.
"I don't think it's possible, Chen Xiaojia is not that kind of person." Gao Zijian breathed a sigh of relief, came over and took my hand again, and said, "Since these are none of these, let's go home obediently. It's cold outside, and we'll talk about it after we get back."
I roughly snatched the box from Gao Zijian's hand and asked, "How is the matter with Third Uncle?"
Gao Zijian looked at me with a smile and said, "If nothing else happens, we should be able to see you the day after tomorrow."
Liu Shihan really means what she says.
I bit my lip, took a breath, and went over the words I had originally thought about in my mind, and said, "Gao Zijian, since the Gao family's problems have been solved, you have nothing to worry about.
