Gu Qingyou frowned, "We already ate at home."
"Is that so?" Jiang Jun held up the red wine, and looked at her calmly, "At that time, you were full, and I was so angry that I couldn't eat it."
Gu Qingyou did not want to waste time with Jiang Jun, so she turned around and prepared to leave.
However, after Jiang Jun slowly took a sip of the red wine, she said calmly, "If you take one step out of this restaurant, you can forget about obtaining custody of Mu Mu."
Gu Qingyou suddenly turned around, staring at him angrily, "You promised me before!"
The corner of Jiang Jun's mouth drew back, revealing a faint smile, "That's right, I did promise you before, but I'm not a righteous man. If I really have to go back on my word, it would also fit my style."
Gu Qingyou looked at him more and more coldly, her eyes gradually turning into something as cold as an icehouse.
Jiang Jun ignored him and continued to elegantly cut the steak on the plate. However, his tone was slightly warmer than before, "Sit."
Gu Qingyou felt that her lungs was filled with anger, but after weighing the pros and cons, she finally sat down obediently in the chair that the waiter had pulled apart.
She looked at him and said resolutely, "I will definitely not give up on Mu Mu's power!"
Jiang Jun leaned his body against the back of the chair, gently facing her eyes, and said slowly, "You know what I'm going to do to you, I don't really want to take the child away from you. I just hope that you can stop your sharp thorns, at least for your own good, and at the same time, hope that you can treat me well."
Gu Qingyou's cold gaze gradually dimmed, and after a few seconds, she slowly lowered her gaze. I don't need you to be nice to me." She still said this, but her tone was no longer as sharp as it had been the last time she spoke to him.
"Whether it's from the heart of my parents or from my own, I want you to stay." Jiang Jun looked at her with sincere eyes.
Gu Qingyou's body froze, but he did not say anything in response.
"If you really don't want to stay, you will only have to face me for another three months. In the future, you will be able to return to the peaceful days of the past three years. But why do we have to get along so badly in this short period of three months?" Jiang Jun frowned, a gentle look in her eyes, and said seriously. I respect you from the begi ing to the end, and whatever decision you make, I will listen to you. Even though I know that you are pregnant, I will still choose to accommodate to you. I just hope that you can be happy, and I don't want to see you acting so cold and heartless right now."
Gu Qingyou took a deep breath. After all the friendly persuasion, she finally raised her eyes and looked at him calmly. You don't understand why I'm so cold and heartless, do you? "
Jiang Jun looked at her, and pursed her lips.
Gu Qingyou's nose suddenly felt a bit of pain, to the point that her throat became a little sore, "Because even today, after three years of separation, I still can't extricate myself from the feelings I had in the past??"
At this moment, she choked with sobs at Gu Qingyou's throat, making it difficult for her to say in a hoarse voice, "So, the more times we tangle with each other, the more pain I feel in my heart. The better you treat me, the more uncomfortable I'll feel?? If it was you, would you choose to continue waiting or give up? "
As she spoke till here, Gu Qingyou scoffed coldly, "In the past three years, I have waited on a hopeless path with trembling legs. I know that the chances are slim but I was still unwilling to give up. Isn't that enough to make me give up? "
Gu Qingyou did her best to control her eyes and did not let the intense dryness make her eyes wet. She continued to laugh sorrowfully, then slowly got up from the chair and looked at him. Finally, she said, "I don't need you to take care of me, I don't want you to take care of me, and I don't want you to like me either?? "I may be alone, but I won't feel bad or suffer, and after I give up, I'll definitely meet someone who can replace you in my heart??"
With that, Gu Qingyou tried her best to widen her painful eyes. Not allowing herself to shed tears, she coldly turned around and left.
With nowhere to go, Gu Qingyou arrived at the hotel's observation deck. Separated by a river, was still the dazzling night scenery of City H.
Allowing the wind on the deck to blow through her body through the thin summer clothes, Gu Qingyou helplessly crossed her hands.
Finally, in a place with no one around, she allowed herself to sob loudly, allowing herself to be surrounded by endless grief??
Was she asking for too much?
No...
She just wanted someone who loved her. She just stubbornly insisted on this. Was she wrong?
"Quiet??"
Hearing her voice, she instinctively wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes and on her cheeks, but before she could turn to leave, his strong arms had already wrapped around her from behind.
Her cold body was instantly enveloped in warmth, but she struggled violently, slamming her elbows against him or kicking him, but his hands were locked around her like shackles.
Gu Qingyou was in so much pain that she couldn't even utter a word, "Don't be like this?? "Please??"
Jiang Jun kissed her neck and discovered that her body was even colder than his lips. He hugged her more and more tightly, giving her tight protection. His thin lips were pressed tightly against her lower jaw, causing her to be completely wrapped around by him??
"I'm sorry. If I hadn't been selfish enough to keep you by my side, I wouldn't have let you fall into this quagmire??"
His "sorry" caused Gu Qingyou to painfully close her eyes. Waves of pain surged up from her chest, making her throat choke so much that words couldn't leave her mouth.
Jiang Jun hugged her tightly."Give me a bit of time, and let me tell you slowly in the future how I walked through those five years that I suffered the most??"
Gu Qingyou didn't know how long Jiang Jun had hugged her. In short, even when the H City landmark across the river lost its light, Jiang Jun still had not let go of her.
In the end, Gu Qingyou got tired, fell asleep, and leaned powerlessly against his thick chest??
That night she slept peacefully in his arms.
When Gu Qingyou opened her eyes in the morning, she had already felt that had lowered his head and kissed her forehead, vaguely saying, "I'll sleep a little longer??"
Still, she took his heavy arm from around her waist and pulled back the covers.
Jiang Jun sat up from the bed after a minute.
When he saw her walk to the French window alone, the tall and slender figure sat up from the bed and slowly walked to her.
The first rays of the morning sun pierced through the glass, casting a golden light on the ground.
Jiang Jun hugged her.
She did not struggle.
When he took her chin and kissed her mouth, she turned her face away.
Jiang Jun did not force her, but the morning voice sounded lazy and asked gently, "I need to participate in the first round of the competition, are you coming with me?"
Gu Qingyou shook her head, broke away from Jiang Jun, and walked straight to the bed with her back facing him, continuing to close her eyes.
Jiang Jun looked at her body that was still slim under the blanket from afar. He seemed to let out a soft sigh, and then, she entered the bathroom.
When Jiang Jun came out of the bathroom, she still had not opened her eyes.
After he changed his clothes, he sat on the edge of the bed as he buttoned his shirt. Looking at her with her back facing him, he said slowly, "Then let's sleep a little longer??" I'll probably be back a little later at noon. If I can make it in time, I'll come back and eat with you."
Gu Qingyou ignored him.
Jiang Jun lowered her head and kissed Gu Qingyou's long hair before she got up from the bed, put on her suit jacket and left.
Gu Qingyou opened her eyes when she heard the sound of someone closing the door. Due to crying last night, her eyes were bubbly and dry, as if she was still in some pain.
The night before had been warm, but because he had already left, the empty space beside him had already slowly cooled down??
There was still a faint scent of him in the room. It was the smell of her yearning??
Her mind was blank. She stopped thinking about the past or the future. At that moment, all she wanted was to remain in a daze??
Gradually, the tiredness came again. She slowly closed her eyes, bringing all of her tiredness into the dream world.
She actually had a dream, and it was a beautiful dream.
In the dream, she and Jiang Jun were in the Wasteland of Anchorage. The Aurora shone brilliantly above their heads, but the two children in front of them were ru ing around happily. She snuggled up against his shoulder in satisfaction.
In the carriage, Jiang Jun was expressionless as she opened her mouth, "I quit my job at London, and brought Aunt Shu back from London at the right time."
Ye Shuo was not surprised at this outcome. After all, the two people from last night seemed to have already merged together. Yes, this subordinate will take care of it."
Jiang Jun then closed her eyes, and stayed in the carriage to recuperate.
Su Mo dragged his luggage and stood at the entrance of the hotel, watching the car from afar.
She had arrived when he came out of the hotel, but she did not greet him.
Last night when she called Mrs Jiang to inquire about her health, she had already found out from him that Gu Qingyou was accompanying him, and after struggling for a long time in her heart, she took out her phone.
There was no one on the other end of the phone to answer it, she guessed that Gu Qingyou was still sleeping, and just as she was about to hang up, Gu Qingyou finally picked up.
"Hey??"
Gu Qingyou's vague voice came out from the phone.
Su Mo gently smiled, and said in a calm and tranquil voice, "Miss Gu, it's me?? I'm downstairs at the hotel where you're staying. Can you come down and see me?
It was clear that Gu Qingyou did not expect the call to be from Su Mo, so she paused for a long time on the other end of the phone before replying, "..."Okay, but I don't have the hotel door code."
"72, 869." Su Mo replied.
Gu Qingyou was startled.
Su Mo immediately explained, "Don't misunderstand, my memory is very good. There were several times where I saw Ye Shuo entering the password so I remembered it."
"Alright, I'll see you in ten minutes!"
"Alright, I'll wait for you at the coffee shop closest to the hotel."
