The moonlight sprinkled over the boundless sea surface like a mirror.
Jiang Jun's slender figure stood straight, her hands in her pockets, staring at the slim figure on the beach who was leaning her head on An Yaru's shoulder.
Que Yan, who was standing beside him and had a similar stature, spoke up, "I can tell that Qing You wasn't completely on guard against you, because when the two of you were looking at each other, it was always her who withdrew his gaze first. But in the past?? She will look at you until you look away."
Que Yan had always been cautious and had long noticed such details.
"The reason why she's willing to start anew with me this time isn't mainly because she finally trusts me, but because she cares about Mu Mu." Jiang Jun calmly opened her lips.
"Actually, it's already quite difficult for Serenity to do this. After all, in the past, you??" Que Yan did not continue and instead, let out a light sigh. However, if not for the fact that he has yet to forget about you from the bottom of his heart, even if he had to take Mu Mu into consideration, she would not make a comeback with you.
Jiang Jun did not withdraw her gaze from Gu Qingyou's body. After a while, she said indifferently, "I will have Cui Hao deal with the matters with Dan Yan, take care of yourself."
Hearing that, Que Yan looked at Jiang Jun's sharp and clear profile, "Did I hear wrong? You're letting me rest during the holidays?"
Jiang Jun then retracted her gaze, looked at Que Yan and spoke slowly: "What, you don't want to take a break?"
Que Yan immediately waved his hand, and said nervously, "I definitely do not have that intention, it's good to have a holiday?? "That's great!" Que Yan was actually emotional to the point of incoherent speech, it was a mistake on his part, he was still staring at Jiang Jun, afraid that Jiang Jun would go back on her words, after all, Jiang Jun had never been so humane before!
Jiang Jun had already started walking towards the two women who were sitting on the beach.
Looking at Jiang Jun's back, Que Yan heaved a sigh of relief, believing that Jiang Jun had really let him off on a big holiday. Soon after, he also followed along with Jiang Jun's footsteps.
"It's very late. Do you want to go back to sleep?"
Jiang Jun's slender figure came over to Gu Qingyou's side, and looking at the surface of the sea which was covered in the moonlight, she asked gently.
When Gu Qingyou heard his voice, she slowly raised her head from An Yaru's shoulder. However, as her eyes were drooping, as if she had just adjusted her mental state, she stood up.
"This place is as beautiful as a painting."
Jiang Jun took her hands out from her pockets and supported her waist. If you like, we can come often."
Gu Qingyou looked at Jiang Jun, the night light shone upon his handsome face, and she gave a slight smile. But the next time we will be bringing Mu Mu and his parents over."
Jiang Jun held her waist tightly."Alright."
"Good night, quiet and secluded." Seeing the two of them interacting happily, An Yaru revealed a sweet smile.
Gu Qingyou and An Yaru nodded, "You should go to sleep as well. The humidity by the sea is too high, it's easy to catch cold if you stay too late."
"I know, I'll be right back." An Yaru made a face at Gu Qingyou.
Gu Qingyou smiled gently, and seeing that Que Yan was there again, she turned around and left with a relieved heart.
On the way back to the villa, the lights lengthened their silhouettes and they landed on the white beach. The shadows seemed to match each other.
Jiang Jun suddenly turned her head, staring at her, she broke the silence, "Qingyou, can you tell me what you were thinking?"
Gu Qingyou's body trembled slightly, after a moment, she spoke calmly, "One night Su Mo called you, I don't know if you know but she seems to be in trouble and needs your help."
Jiang Jun suddenly stopped, and looked deeply into Gu Qingyou's face that was as bright as the moonlight, and asked: "You are worried that I still have feelings for Su Mo?"
Gu Qingyou gently pulled Jiang Jun away from her waist and continued to walk towards the villa."Yes, but you don't have to answer that now, because I'll find out in the coming days." she said gently.
Jiang Jun grabbed Gu Qingyou's wrist, and with a slight movement, she had already gotten close to him. If I had not forgotten about Su Mo, when our lives are at stake, I would not have been thinking about you."
"Sorry??" Gu Qingyou tried to break away from Jiang Jun.
However, Jiang Jun didn't allow it. He grabbed her hands, went around to his waist, and asked her to hug him. He gently cupped her exquisite face, and focused his gaze on her. The matter between Su Mo and I has already passed, and from today onwards, I will no longer have any relationship with this person. The last time I sent her away, I had already done my best."
Gu Qingyou looked deeply at Jiang Jun, and only opened her mouth after a long while: "Su Mo calling you, is obviously because of the past, if you really are as you say, forgetting about Su Mo, then from now on, don't bother with Su Mo anymore, and let her completely give up on you."
Just as she finished speaking, Jiang Jun had already blurted out in a low voice, "Even if you didn't ask me for it, I would have done the same."
A hint of doubt flashed past Gu Qingyou's eyes, "Really? If Su Mo was taken away by Dan Yan in front of you, or if Su Mo was injured, you really can remain indifferent! "
"As he gazed at her, a hint of frustration appeared in Jiang Jun's pitch-black eyes. Would you not believe anything I say now? "
"Yes." Gu Qingyou replied in a calm voice, and then, she felt a bitter lump in her throat. Jiang Jun, do you know? I am really, really, very tired. On the road that I love you, I have already been riddled with holes, and if it wasn't for Mu Mu contacting you, no matter if you had feelings for me or not, I wouldn't continue to walk with you. So I don't care about your feelings for me anymore?? At this very moment, the reason I am giving us another chance, is because I do not want Mu Mu to lose a beautiful childhood because of us, so the current me does not have any requirements for you. I only hope that in the future, our families can remain calm and peaceful, and we can protect Mu Mu and grow healthy together! "
Gu Qingyou's words gave Jiang Jun a heart-wrenching pain.
So, I don't care about how you feel about me anymore??
These words lingered in his mind for a long time.
Gu Qingyou's hands left Jiang Jun's waist, and at this moment, they naturally fell to her sides. Since it is you who desires to start over with me and maintain this marriage, then please agree to my request just now, and respect our marriage so that it can be sustained?? "
Jiang Jun stared at Gu Qingyou with a heavy gaze. Every second that passed, more scars appeared on her face.
This silence was both silent and terrifying, as if it could destroy a person's mind.
As time passed, Gu Qingyou's chest rose and fell slightly. Finally, she turned around and walked towards the villa.
But this time, Jiang Jun did not catch up to her. Under the night sky, his slender and straight figure stood still in her original position, and her handsome face was cold and unfeeling for a long time.
Jiang Jun would never know that after returning to her room, her vision had already been completely blurred by tears.
She had never been one to cry, but when she met him, she was always crying.
She was well aware of how sharp her words were. Perhaps it had hurt his previously arrogant dignity, but this was the only way for her to protect herself??
One had to know that the harm he suffered right now was not even a thousandth of what she had suffered in the past, because she loved him so deeply, so deeply, had treated him as her entire world, yet he had allowed her to fall into the abyss and die a horrible death??
Stubbornly staring at him, not letting the tears fall from the corners of her eyes, Gu Qingyou finally managed to hold back her sorrowful emotions.
As she reached out to wipe the tears from her eyes, her cell phone, which had been lying on the nightstand, rang.
Unexpectedly, it was Chi Yifeng who called. Gu Qingyou took a few deep breaths before calming herself down.
"Quiet."
When Chi Yifeng's voice came through the phone, his voice had already returned to normal. Lawyer Chi."
"Are you feeling better?" Chi Yifeng asked with concern.
"Only now did Gu Qingyou remember that Jiang Jun had asked for sick leave for her." "Yes, thank you for your concern."
"That's good." "Chi Yifeng seemed to heave a sigh of relief. You don't have to worry about work matters these few days. If you trust me, I'll represent you in the third divorce case the day after tomorrow. I believe I can help you win this case! "
"Lawyer Chi, I'm sorry. I just started working and you took such a long time off?? "If you were to help me go to court, of course I would be at ease. It's just that this would be too troublesome for you." Gu Qingyou said apologetically. She realised that Chi Yifeng was a figure like the sun. No matter what, he would always make people feel warm.
"It's fine, I have a case on hand. You can come back to work after you've fully recovered!"
Gu Qingyou said gratefully, "Thank you."
Chi Yifeng did not speak anymore, "Rest well."
"Alright."
When she ended the call with Chi Yifeng, the depressed mood in Gu Qingyou had eased up a little. She looked around the room and realized that Jiang Jun had not returned to his room yet.
Gu Qingyou didn't plan to think too much into it. She took out her pajamas from the closet and went to the bathroom.
The two of them met awkwardly, and she spent a lot of time in the bathtub.
However, Gu Qingyou did not expect that when she came out of the bathroom more than an hour later, Jiang Jun was still not in her room. However, she found Jiang Jun's figure in front of the window in the middle of the room.
Under the moonlight, he stood on the beach, facing the vast sea. His figure was as lonely as a statue.
His hands were in his pockets, lost in his own thoughts.
The outside world was empty. It was as if he was the only person in the entire world.
Gu Qingyou was standing in front of the french window, quietly staring at his slender figure. Her chest was faintly aching, and her throat was surging with waves of bitterness.
The next day.
When Gu Qingyou woke up, Jiang Jun was not by her side, but the ice-cold place beside her reminded her that Jiang Jun did not go back to her room to sleep last night.
Gu Qingyou quickly put on her clothes and went to the beach.
Que Yan and An Yaru had not woken up yet. She was the only one on the vast beach, and Jiang Jun's figure was nowhere to be found.
