Chapter 457 - 425: Why Is He Blushing?
The night falls deeply.Looking down from the balcony of the ward, the whole city sparkles with stars, dazzling and colorful.
Qiao Yuxian gazes at the starlight outside through the glass, then turns with a smile to look at Qin Xia.
Qin Xia meets her gaze for a moment and says, "You’re still smiling. I’m serious, you need to think carefully for yourself. Just in case... don’t get too deeply involved. You’d be the one to suffer in the end. Look at the women in the Gu Family."
Qiao Yuxian smiles at her again.
Seeing her naive smile, Qin Xia sighs, "Well, it’s a waste of words. With how you are, you’re already beyond saving."
Qiao Yuxian smiles again and asks, "If Chu Zhengran were to cheat in the future, would you leave him? Would you stop loving him?"
In the ward, Chu Zhengran’s face freezes: "......"
Why bring this up about him now.
Lin Huai Shu glances at Gu Yanjing and Chu Zhengran’s expressions, even grimmer than his own, instantly feeling much more relieved.
On the balcony, Qin Xia suddenly goes silent.
Qiao Yuxian raises an eyebrow.
Qin Xia stares at her.
Qiao Yuxian says, "The future is unknown to all of us. There’s no need to worry ourselves."
Qiao Lech blinks at Qiao Yuxian.
Qiao Yuxian sits lazily, looking comfortable in a relaxed posture, her whole person exudes a lazy, leisurely feeling, as if she is an outsider in this chaotic world.
"You love him now, he loves you too, isn’t that the reason for two people to be together? Loving each other makes you think of the future, wanting to have a future together," Qiao Yuxian says, "As for what the future holds, we can’t foresee it. Should we not be together just because of that unknown future?"
Qin Xia remains silent, still watching her.
Qiao Yuxian continues, "Even if, to consider it from a different angle, you end up splitting later on. At the very least, you loved each other at this point. It was just that the fate ran its course later. Having loved is good enough. Having loved, there will always be a part of life where you loved someone and were loved in return, it is beautiful too."
Qin Xia furrows her brow in thought.
Qiao Yuxian stops talking.
After a while, Qin Xia asks, "So that’s why you decided to marry Gu Yanjing after meeting him once."
Qiao Yuxian raises an eyebrow, "Speaking of which, I must thank you. Thanks to your dislocated arm insisting to be hospitalized."
Qin Xia: "...... Since you need to thank me, you should cover the penalty for my drama."
Qiao Yuxian squints her eyes.
Qin Xia folds her arms and looks at her with her chin raised.
The already paid penalty Qiao Yuxian meets her gaze for a while, gets up, and walks towards the ward, "Mr. Chu, Qin Xia’s penalty..."
Qin Xia quickly pulls her back, covering her mouth.
Qiao Yuxian reflexively grabs her hand but quickly lets go, allowing her to cover her mouth, glaring at her.
Qin Xia also glares at her.
The two glare at each other fiercely.
Qiao Lech silently watches the childish pair.
The three men inside the ward watch the balcony door, listening to the noises inside, ready for them to start fighting anytime.
As a result, Qiao Yuxian, employing wit, tickled Qin Xia’s waist, causing Qin Xia to retreat.
Qiao Lech is also inexplicably dragged into the fight, ultimately stepping back too.
The winner, Qiao Yuxian, delivers her victory speech.
Making Qiao Lech and Qin Xia each send her ten yuan.
On the way back, Qiao Yuxian spends the twenty yuan on a cup of milk tea and even makes a point to post it on her social media.
Upon seeing it, Qiao Lech comments with a string of ellipses.
Meanwhile, Qin Xia directly sends her 99+ middle finger emojis on WeChat.
Qiao Yuxian chuckles for quite a while upon seeing it.
On their way back, Su Qi drives in front, with Gu Yanjing and her in the back.
Gu Yanjing watches Qiao Yuxian sipping milk tea and laughing.
After a while, Qiao Yuxian scoots closer to Gu Yanjing, leaning on his shoulder.
Gu Yanjing looks down at her.
Qiao Yuxian chats with Qin Xia for a while, sets the milk tea aside, then looks up at Gu Yanjing.
Gu Yanjing caresses her face.
Qiao Yuxian smiles at him, "Are you upset?"
"No," Gu Yanjing replies.
"Really?" Qiao Yuxian asks, "You heard what we said on the balcony, right?"
When Qiao Yuxian was dragged back by Qin Xia from leaving, she noticed the balcony door wasn’t closed tight.
There was a gap left.
"Yeah," Gu Yanjing responds.
"I believe you won’t," Qiao Yuxian looks at him and says.
The car’s lighting is somewhat dim, but Qiao Yuxian’s eyes are bright.
Gu Yanjing looks at her lively and beautiful fox-like eyes, asking, "Why?"
Qiao Yuxian chuckles, "Mr. Gu, that’s too much. I say I trust you, and you ask why?"
"Mm," Gu Yanjing responds again.
Qiao Yuxian squints her eyes then answers, "Because I like you so much, I’m willing to trust you. Also, because you love me a lot, I’m also willing to trust you."
Gu Yanjing gazes at her firm and sincere eyes, watching for a while, he reaches out to pull her into his embrace, supporting her chin with his other hand, kissing her.
Qiao Yuxian seems startled by his sudden move, her whole body shakes, immediately clutching his clothes tightly.
Gu Yanjing draws her closer again, deepening the kiss.
Su Qi drives up front, noticing the silence behind, looks up through the rearview mirror.
Seeing the two embracing...
Su Qi’s heart leaps to his throat.
He widens his eyes, watching the rearview mirror, for two seconds. Hastily beginning to search for the button to raise the partition behind.
But in his hastiness, he accidentally lowers the window on the passenger side.
He promptly raises it back, searches around, finally finding and raising the partition behind.
As the partition rises, Su Qi exhales heavily.
He’s only seen his boss Gu give a gentle kiss before.
Such a kiss...
Especially right in front of him...
He’s never seen before.
He was greatly shocked.
His soul was nearly scared out of him.
Since his boss Gu got a wife, his boss’s abstinent and cold image has gradually been crumbling bit by bit.
However, despite his shock, Su Qi doesn’t forget to compliment himself.
Despite being scared quite a lot, he still held the steering wheel tightly, ensuring the car didn’t wobble even a bit, creating a very good environment for his boss Gu.
He’s truly a dedicated and caring employee for his boss.
...
Arriving at Jingyu Garden, Qiao Yuxian and Gu Yanjing get out and walk toward the living room.
Su Qi follows behind.
In the living room, Aunt Qin sees them return and smiles, greeting, "Sir, Ma’am. You’re back?"
Qiao Yuxian sticks close to Gu Yanjing, resembling someone visiting for the first time, shyly smiling at Aunt Qin, "Aunt Qin."
Aunt Qin sees her flushed face, smiling, not saying anything else.
Once Gu Yanjing and Qiao Yuxian enter the elevator.
Aunt Qin turns her gaze to the equally flushed-faced Su Qi.
Staring at him.
Su Qi is stared into taking a step back, touches his face, asking, "What is it? Aunt Qin. Is there something on my face?"
"Why are you blushing?" Aunt Qin asks.
"I..." Su Qi is speechless.
He himself doesn’t understand.
Obviously, it’s them being affectionate.
Yet in the end, it’s him and his boss’s wife who are blushing.
His boss Gu is as calm as ever.
Su Qi can’t figure it out.
Su Qi wants to cool off by the moat.
