Chapter 70 Tie
The night is melting, the wind is blowing, the crescent moon hides in the clouds, leaving only a few stars in the dark sky, the breeze blows by, and the bamboos on both sides of the road sway in the wind.
It was Liang Jingwan who suggested taking a walk, and it was she who wanted to go back when she couldn't walk anymore.
Liang Jingwan's arms were hung on Gu Zhengchen's arms, and her upper body was drooping, like a zombie walking.
"I can't walk anymore." The cool female voice stood out in the silent dark night.
Gu Zhengchen only found it funny and took Liang Jingwan's hand: "We've only been gone for five minutes and we haven't arrived yet."
Liang Jingwan pouted.
Half a minute later, Liang Jingwan was lying behind Gu Zhengchen, with a smile as bright as a flower, her hands hanging in front of her, her lips kissing Gu Zhengchen's ears from time to time, and her warm breath brushing the back of his neck.
"Is that dish really delicious?"
Gu Zhengchen hooked his hands on Liang Jingwan's thighs, slowly tightened them, and asked without answering: "What do you think?"
"I think it's quite delicious." Liang Jingwan said firmly, even if she didn't eat a bite of the food she cooked, it couldn't be said to be unpalatable.
Gu Zhengchen just smiled and did not expose Liang Jingwan.
The two of them walked around most of Guanyun No. 1. Liang Jingwan didn't walk very far, and Gu Zhengchen carried all the weight forward.
Liang Jingwan was whispering in Gu Zhengchen's ear when a strong male voice came from behind.
"Director Gu."
Gu Zhengchen paused and turned around: "Mr. Huang."
Mr. Huang smiled and said: "Dr. Gu is also out for a walk?"
He turned his attention to the person on Gu Zhengchen. Most of his face was buried in the crook of Gu Zhengchen's neck. With his long hair draped over his shoulders, he couldn't see the face clearly.
Gu Zhengchen nodded.
"Then I won't disturb Director Gu." Mr. Huang glanced ambiguously back and forth at Gu Zhengchen and Liang Jingwan. When he saw Gu Zhengchen smiling, he turned and left.
Until a while later, Liang Jingwan put her hand on Gu Zhengchen's shoulder, straightened her body, raised her head, and said in a coquettish tone: "I was scared to death."
Gu Zhengchen didn't say anything, he just grabbed her leg and shook it up.
The feeling of weightlessness intensified, Liang Jingwan hurriedly hugged Gu Zhengchen tightly with her arms again, and rubbed her face flatteringly against the side of his face. There was no green stubble on her chin, and her fair little face felt rough as soon as she rubbed it.
……
After the ups and downs.
Liang Jingwan lay on her side in Gu Zhengchen's arms and repeated the question she asked during the walk: "Do you like me because I am young?"
Gu Zhengchen spoke slowly: "No."
"Then why do you like me?" Liang Jingwan turned over and they were face to face.
"Is it because I'm pretty? Or is it because..."
"Did you fall in love with me the first time you saw me?"
Liang Jingwan chattered endlessly, trying to ask for some answers. Gu Zhengchen seemed helpless. Hearing the last question, he raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled secretly.
Liang Jingwan noticed Gu Zhengchen's joke and later recalled that the first time they met in that coffee shop, she was handed a check by a middle-aged beautiful woman who asked her to leave her son. Afterwards, she overestimated her abilities. She raised her eyes and glared at him. It was obviously not this time, then there was only...
Liang Jingwan frowned and hesitated: "Gu Zhengchen, do you... like a gambler?"
Gu Zhengchen laughed dumbly.
Liang Jingwan didn't hear Gu Zhengchen's reply, she pursed her lips, and wanted to ask again, but Gu Zhengchen changed the subject: "I like it so much, will I take you to play in Macau next time?"
"Do all the wins belong to me?"
Gu Zhengchen hugged her tightly and hummed, his chest vibrating: "Everything you win is yours."
Liang Jingwan opened her mouth slightly and wanted to speak, but suddenly she felt her vision darken. It turned out that Gu Zhengchen had covered her eyes with his hands.
"It's dark, go to bed quickly."
The man's voice was deep and magnetic, mixed with the dark environment, and it was indeed a bit hypnotic. After a while, Liang Jingwan leaned her face against Gu Zhengchen's chest and fell into a drowsy dream. The next day.
When Liang Jingwan opened her eyes, Gu Zhengchen was walking out of the cloakroom with a tie in his hand and saw her: "Are you awake?"
Liang Jingwan nodded and stared at Gu Zhengchen's movements in tying the tie.
Perhaps seeing Liang Jingwan's eagerness to give it a try, Gu Zhengchen opened his legs and approached, placing his calves against the bed, gesturing for Liang Jingwan to come over.
The corners of Liang Jingwan's mouth raised unconsciously, her body was wrapped in a thin quilt, and she knelt on the soft bed, moving closer to Gu Zhengchen, and moving her hands back and forth on her chest.
A minute later, Liang Jingwan looked at the "red scarf" on Gu Zhengchen's chest, feeling a little ashamed and guilty, and silently looked away.
Gu Zhengchen noticed Liang Jingwan's unnaturalness and lowered his eyes to look at Liang Jingwan's masterpiece.
"Ahem." Liang Jingwan moved her knees and pushed her body back: "You'd better do it yourself."
With her wrist tightened, Liang Jingwan looked at Gu Zhengchen and asked silently.
"I'll teach you."
"..."
Ten minutes later, Gu Zhengchen walked downstairs with an unattractive Windsor knot on his head.
Liang Jingwan was squirming on the bed. Half an hour later, Liang Jingwan went downstairs to have breakfast.
At the dinner table, Liang Jingwan received a call from Ms. Su.
"Hello."
Liang Jingwan yawned and answered Ms. Su's question: "In Bodhi Bay."
Ms. Su snorted, not sure whether she believed it or not: "There is someone at home, please come back quickly."
Liang Jingwan frowned: "Why do people come to the house all the time? Who is it?"
Ms. Su didn't reply to her. She just gave a few brief instructions and hung up the phone.
It wasn't until Liang Jingwan drove home that she realized who the person Ms. Su was talking about was.
She threw the car keys on the entrance cabinet expressionlessly and called the woman on the sofa: "Ms. Lu."
Lu Shuning seemed not to notice Liang Jingwan's face at all, smiling broadly, and said in a friendly tone: "Xiaowan."
Liang Jingwan approached meekly, and after listening to the conversation between Lu Shuning and Ms. Su, she realized that she was here to see Mr. Liang. She was on a business trip a few days ago and didn't come to the birthday party that night, so she came today.
Beside him, Liang Mingyuan tilted his head, hiding his sleepy eyes.
Liang Jingwan lowered her head and asked Liang Mingyuan: "Where is grandpa?"
"The old man just took one look and excused himself that he was not in good health and wanted to go back and lie down. He hasn't come out yet." Liang Mingyuan spoke with a breathy voice.
"What does she mean by looking at her cousin like that?"
Liang Mingyuan lowered his voice: "I guess I want to pick him up."
When Liang Jingwan heard Liang Mingyuan's answer, she couldn't help but cast an admiring look at Lu Shuning, with such a cold face that she dared to look at him.
She couldn't help but shiver, and thought about it carefully, don't let her succeed, then it would be over.
After thinking about this, Liang Jingwan moved her position and sat between Su Jinlin and Lu Shuning. She turned to look at Lu Shuning and happened to miss Su Jinlin's relieved look.
"Sister Shu Ning, who is the star on the cover of your magazine's next issue?"
"Wang Ting."
"Who will be on the cover of the next issue of the magazine?"
The smile on Lu Shuning's face froze: "This hasn't been determined yet."
Before Liang Jingwan asked the next question, Lu Shuning spoke first: "Xiao Wan, why don't we go out and chat so as not to disturb Brother Jin Lin's rest?"
Brother Jin Lin?
Liang Jingwan's fingers suddenly tightened.
