After hearing what she said, Gu Wangchu nodded in understanding.
She was indeed not good at making incense, but when she was young, she heard her mother mention that her second aunt, Gu Qingjiu's mother, Gu Qingcheng, was a rare expert in the Gu family in making incense and medicine.
Mr. Gu was good at business, and when his wife was still alive, she was best at making incense and medicine.
It's a pity that the second aunt later...
Wen Ling had always wanted to speak, but just now Gu Wangchu spoke first and interrupted him.
Regarding Gu Qingjiu's clothing exhibition, although he didn't know why humans would hold such a thing called an exhibition, he believed in Gu Qingjiu, so he believed that everything she did was meaningful.
But he was worried about the man named "Qiao" standing next to Gu Qingjiu.
His intuition told him that the other party was a very dangerous person.
"Nine, I have something I want to talk to you about alone."
His expression was condensed, and Gu Qingjiu couldn't help but become serious when she saw him like this:
"good."
As if remembering something sad, Gu Wangchu said that he was not feeling well and left first.
It's up to Qiao to make arrangements for the auction show.
Gu Qingjiu took Wen Ling to a hotel and chose an independent private room with excellent sound insulation.
"Tell me," Gu Qingjiu sat down and held her face with one hand, her eyes full of doubts:
"Why did you treat Joe like that?"
"That kind of attitude?" Even though Wen Ling has gradually adapted to human society and is familiar with human language, he still doesn't understand the more abstract words people speak.
Fortunately, Gu Qingjiu took the trouble to explain to him:
"That is to say, you seem to be very distrustful of Joe?"
Now Wen Ling understood, and he nodded obediently.
Gu Qingjiu became even more confused.
It's not that she couldn't see that there was always a feeling of hostility between Wen Ling and Qiao, even though they barely met each other.
But after getting along for a long time, she felt that Wen Ling was just a simple young man who was not secretive about the world. What's more, she and Qiao only maintained a teacher-student relationship. She had also clearly rejected the other's pursuit many times. Wen Ling could not
He would be the kind of person who likes to be jealous.
even--
She looked at the young man in front of her and secretly guessed:
Does this man know what "jealous" means?
Wen Ling saw Gu Qingjiu looking at him with a complicated expression. He thought it was his attitude towards Qiao that made Gu Qingjiu unhappy, so he quickly shook his head and said:
"You...if you really like him and don't want to stay away from him, I won't hinder you, but...please don't refuse my protection."
He really, really thought that man was dangerous.
Perhaps only those who are too simple can have such straightforward feelings.
Or maybe it's because he is not an ordinary person, so when everyone approaches him, most of his innermost intentions can be seen through his face.
But when he looked at Qiao before, he couldn't tell what the other person was thinking through his face.
There are only two possibilities.
Or, Joe is just like him, not human.
Or, the other party is too good at disguise and has multiple layers of disguise, which prevents him from seeing through the other party's inner thoughts at a glance.
Such a dangerous person is hiding next to Gu Qingjiu...
Thinking of this, he suddenly grabbed Gu Qingjiu's hand excitedly:
"I want to protect you and make you happy!"
Gu Qingjiu was shocked by his sudden move, her eyes were blank for two seconds, and then she realized what she was doing, and a blush gradually appeared on her face.
Does this guy Wen Ling know what he is talking about?!
"This, this is similar to a confession..." Gu Qingjiu uncomfortably took out her hand and turned her head:
"You better stop telling me. Don't forget, we are just a couple on contract."
In order to completely cut off Qiao's thoughts, she took the initiative to find Wen Ling and made a contract with him to become a fake couple.
She knew that by doing this, she might feel sorry for Wen Ling. Moreover, Wen Ling looked at her like a clear and innocent puppy, which made her feel guilty.
But to her, she is an executor who has traveled through many small worlds, which is equivalent to having a life span of millions of years. She has experienced too many joys and sorrows, and her heart has long lost hope for love, and she is destined to never be with her.
Everyone in this world is involved for a long time.
Since she is destined to be lonely, it is better to let Wen Ling go free after achieving her goal.
He is still very young, so innocent, and he will definitely meet a girl who is better than her and more worthy of his sincerity.
On the night when Gu Qingjiu's heart beat, she had already been hypnotizing herself. She and he were just a contractual couple. After Qiao left, she would terminate the relationship. There would be no more intersections between them.
.
...She can't be moved.
After Wen Ling heard what she said, as expected, he lowered his head like a drowned puppy.
But in fact, he didn't have what she was thinking.
He was indeed touched by the phrase "contract couple".
But more than being sad, he felt inferior.
Yes, Gu Qingjiu said it right. He was able to stay with her temporarily because of the contract.
Once the contract ends, there will be no more interactions between them.
And he's not even a human being, so why do he think he can give the other person happiness?
"I'm going to say something ugly earlier. Once Qiao leaves China, our relationship as a fake couple... will be terminated."
Gu Qingjiu composed herself and forced herself to say cruel words.
If you decide early and take it easy, hesitation will only lead to more tragedies.
...She knows this feeling too well.
"After the fashion show, what are you going to do...?"
On the one hand, Wen Ling looks forward to having more interactions with her.
But on the other hand, since the previous energy-draining crisis, although Gu Wenjin said that his body values were getting closer to normal.
Although Gu Qingjiu knew that Wen Ling was inquiring about her movements, originally, since she had decided to stay away from him, she should not tell him where she was going. However, when she saw Wen Ling's pitiful expression, she was heartbroken.
Feeling ashamed, I still told him:
"Go back to college... probably in two weeks, after my birthday."
Wen Ling's eyes lit up:
"Are you going to... celebrate your birthday?"
"Um."
He once heard Gu Wenjin mention that birthdays are a very important day for people in this world.
After Gu Qingcheng passed away, Gu Wenjin would celebrate her birthday every year.
Such an arrogant person lowered her head like that, blowing candles devoutly in front of a color photo, wishing that she could return to this world as soon as possible.
So Wen Ling knows that birthdays are very important.
