Chapter 31
s awake." 。On the phone, it was a woman's excited voice. 。In an instant, Zhao Yizhen's eyes widened with joy. 。"Madam, I'll be going out for a moment!" With that, she ran out of the house. 。In the ho...In the restaurant, for a moment there was only the sound of Su Keixin and Gu Zhi's cutlery clinking.
"That..." In the end, it was Su Kexin who couldn't bear the silence any longer and took the initiative to speak up. "About what happened that night—"
"I'm sorry."
Su KeXin was still hesitating on how to start, but unexpectedly, Gu Chi directly interrupted her.
"What" Su Keqin seemed a little surprised.
Gu Chi, is this an apology to yourself
"That night, I was impulsive," Gu Chi said at this point, having finished his meal. He gracefully picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth, speaking in a low voice.
"I also have my faults," Since the other party had apologized, Su Ke Xin naturally had to express a good attitude, "It was I who was impolite to leave the family dinner first. When I have time, I will also go and apologize to your grandfather."
About that night, Su Keqin had actually thought a lot these past few days.
Her direct departure was indeed rude, especially in front of Gu Chi's grandfather. It was simply unmannerly.
As for Gu Yichan, although Gu Chi's prior investigation into her background made some people uncomfortable, Gu Chi wasn't wrong. He couldn't possibly marry a woman with an unknown past.
As for what happened later
Recalling that day, Gu Chi's robust physique and the aura of a mature man filled Su Ke Xin's face with heat.
As for matters between men and women, Su Keqin has always known that since she is legally married to Gu Chi, theoretically, such things are also her obligation.
Yet, she couldn't. And Gu Chi, because of her resistance, didn't continue in the end either. So she had nothing to be angry about.
Hearing Su Ke Xin's apology, Gu Chi pursed his lips and stopped the topic. He just asked: "Su Ke Xin, don't you have anything you want to ask me"
Su Kexin was taken aback, then she remembered.
Indeed, the night a few days ago was eventful. Besides the unpleasantness with Gu Chi, many other things happened.
Su Kexin looked at the man before her, her heart filled with too many questions. She didn't know how to start, so she could only say: "Your leg"
That night, she saw Gu Chi standing before her with her own eyes. It was very clear that he wasn't disabled.
"Just as you see," Gu Chi seemed not at all surprised that Su Keqin would ask this, "My legs, are not disabled."
"Then why "
"There are many reasons for that." Gu Chi replied briefly. "Remember, you can't tell anyone about this."
Su Ke Xin's heart skipped a beat.
She naturally understood that Gu Chi had gone to great lengths to feign disability, there must be his own reasons. She didn't understand the complexities involved, and since Gu Chi didn't want her to ask further, she would naturally keep quiet. She simply nodded.
Gu Chi glanced at Su Ke Xin, satisfied with her obedience, but then suddenly thought of something. His black eyes dimmed abruptly, and he said in a low voice, "Besides this, is there anything else you want to ask me"
He paused, then added, "Or perhaps you want to tell me something"
Su Keqin trembled.
Su Keqin's face turned pale, "You know about what happened two years ago, right"
If Gu Zhi really investigated himself, he couldn't possibly be unaware of what happened two years ago.
Gu Chi looked at Su Ke Xin's face that had turned pale in an instant, "I have a general idea."
Two years ago, he knew about the incident, but only the most widely circulated version. He hadn't delved into the truth behind it.
At first, he didn't investigate because he didn't care; later, he didn't investigate because he hoped Su Kexin would tell him herself.
Su Ke Xin's face turned even paler, she pulled up the corners of her mouth, "Since you know about that matter, why are you still willing to marry me"
"At first, it was because I didn't care at all," Gu Chi looked at Su Ke Xin, with no intention of concealing anything, "I just needed a nominal wife. A materialistic woman is easy for me to control."
Gu Chi said so directly that Su Ke Xin couldn't help but smile wryly.
So, from the beginning, he also thought that she was a woman who could sell her body for money, didn't he
For some reason, this thought arose in her mind, and Su Ke Xin suddenly felt a tightness in her chest.
“But,” Su Ke Xin bit her lips tightly, then suddenly heard Gu Chi speak again, “All I want now is to hear you tell me the truth from back then.”lity was quite stubborn. 。"Has she come back yet" Xia Yin asked anxiously. 。"I don't think so." 。Feng Jie glanced at the rooms upstairs and replied deliberately. 。This woman, she's really stubborn! I...
