Li Shaojue was really depressed. How could he meet this Gu Ruoyan when he came out to relax?
Last night, to have a good night's sleep, he drank a few more bottles of wine with his friends, but he still had a sleepless night. He closed his eyes, and the lingering dream seized the chance and drilled into his mind.
Today, his brain was still in a mess, and he stopped working and had no efficiency to speak of. He had no choice but to come to the seaside to relax.
Then he saw that Gu Ruoyan had finally turned from the illusion in his mind into a real person who was sitting with another man.
Just how many men did this Gu Ruoyan need to have?
The soft and cuddly Gu Jingmeng was still excitedly shaking Li Shaojue's big hand, not noticing the man's depressed mood at all. "Uncle, Xi Xiaoxi also laughed at me for saying that I lost your business card and would never see you again. You see, we are really fated! Why don't we sit down and eat together?"
"No need." Li Shaojue stared at Gu Ruoyan and said to Gu Jingmeng, "Your mother doesn't want to be disturbed by me."
"Eh? Uncle, are you jealous?" Gu Jingmeng blinked her big eyes and pouted, "Uncle, do you like mom?"
"Jingmeng, don't talk nonsense." Gu Ruoyan's face darkened, "Where's Jingxi?"
"Brother just went to the toilet. I'll go find him." Gu Jingmeng pretended to run to find her brother, but she was stopped by her mother.
"Jingyou, go find Jingxi. It's easy for a child to get lost." Gu Ruoyan gave He Jingyou a look, and He Jingyou immediately understood the meaning behind it. He stood up and left.
"Uncle Jingyou, hurry up and get Xi Xiaoxi back!" Gu Jingmeng shouted in a childish voice. She turned around and grabbed Li Shaojue's hand as if she was afraid that he would run away.
"Gu Ruoyan." Seeing that Gu Ruoyan had sent He Jingyou away, Li Shaojue sneered in his heart. Was this to create a world of two people for them? "What are you trying to do?"
"I don't understand what Mr. Li means." Gu Ruoyan was also confused. What did this man find out? "It seems that we have only met once in the psychological clinic."
"Really?"
"Just one encounter? Then what happened to Ji Chucheng that time? What happened to his dream? If not for a long-term understanding, how could a single therapy lead him to feel uneasy?" He wondered in his mind.
The temperature in the air suddenly cooled down. Li Shaojue's aura was cold and heavy, suppressing everyone present. Even Gu Jingmeng sensed that something was wrong and weakly released her small hands.
Gu Ruoyan knew nothing about Li Shaojue's thoughts. She clenched the corner of her clothes. If he knew that she had acquired Gu Group... Gu Ruoyan stared at the man opposite her and waited for him to continue speaking.
"Think about what you did in the consulting room. As a psychologist, how did you use your professional skills?" Li Shaojue's tone was full of ridicule.
"..." The state of the battle just now really made no sense. Gu Ruoyan wondered whether it was because that day she had carelessly finished up the therapy and failed to cure this man's psychological illness? "Mr. Li, I'm sorry that I didn't provide you with enough therapy service..."
"Shut up." Li Shaojue's eyes were about to spit flames. He thought to himself, "If not for enough service, how could it be sufficient?" Only when he really couldn't hold back his desire and looked for her every day would it be sufficient?
"So... you are still suffering from insomnia? Can you describe your condition to me?" Gu Ruoyan really didn't know how to comfort him. She had seen patients with poor therapy effects require to be treated again, but she had never seen those who lost sleep every night and had the energy to fly into a rage out of humiliation.
Although the man in front of her was in a state of rage, he seemed not so timid. On the contrary... he was a little cute.
"..." This time, it was Li Shaojue who was speechless. How could he describe this? That's right. Not only was he suffering from insomnia, but his mind was full of her indecent scenes when he closed his eyes.
There was bitterness that could not be said. The other side was still a woman. Even if he beat her up, he would be unreasonable. This was the first time Li Shaojue had been suppressed to such a state since he was young. He swung his hands and gave Gu Ruoyan a fierce look. Then, he strode away with his long legs. He left without looking back.
"Eh... it turned out that Xi Xiaoxi didn't see this uncle." Gu Jingmeng sighed softly. She could not run up to stop him... As for such a fierce uncle, if Xi Xiaoxi saw him, that coward would definitely be frightened.
She would never admit that she was the one who was afraid of chasing after him.
"Mom, why is this uncle angry?" Gu Jingmeng tilted her head and looked at Gu Ruoyan in a daze.
"Ah... Uncle is sick. Mom didn't cure him." Gu Ruoyan also felt that it was very funny. How could such a big man have such poor psychological endurance?
Seeing that Li Shaojue's car had left, He Jingyou pulled Gu Jingxi over and used his eyes to ask about Gu Ruoyan's situation.
Gu Ruoyan silently made a hand gesture to her forehead, "I'm worrying too much. With Mr. Li's current state, he shouldn't be able to think of what we are discussing."
He could not even sleep well.
The two adults and two children played happily on the beach until night. He Jingyou sent Gu Ruoyan and the two children to the gate of the community. Just as they were about to leave, Gu Ruoyan hesitated for a moment and suddenly smiled. She told Jingxi to take care of his sister and pulled He Jingyou to the corner of the wall. She said a few words to He Jingyou.
"Jingyou, can you take Jingmeng and Jingxi back to your place for a night? I'm afraid I have to entertain a guest here."
He Jingyou instantly understood what she meant. He pondered for a moment, "Can you handle it alone?"
"Don't worry. She can't touch me at this critical time. On the contrary, the more exposed my relationship is, the worse it is for me." Her voice was still soft, but there was a sense of steadiness and determination that had been tempered over the years.
He Jingyou looked at her quietly for a few seconds, then he finally nodded, "Okay."
Watching He Jingyou drive away with the two children, Gu Ruoyan silently cheered herself on in her heart.
For the two children, for her own home, she must be strong.
Sure enough, before she reached the door, she saw Gu Moyan blocking the elevator entrance as if she had been waiting for her for a long time.
"You..." Gu Moyan spoke first. She wanted to ask her where she had gone all day to fool around, but when the words reached her mouth, she swallowed them back down. She was here to ask for help. She had to slow down her tone.
"... Yanyan." She cleared her throat and opened her mouth, "I have something to talk to you. Would it be convenient for me to sit at your place?"
"Alright." Gu Ruoyan did not look at her directly. She walked around her, pressed the elevator button, and walked in.
It had been so many years, but she did not expect that her fingertips still trembled as she saw Gu Moyan again.
The painful and horrible memory appeared again: the day when she decided to give up her innocence for her mother, the night that seemed to be torn all over, the pills that were going to kill her, and finally, the despair and suffocation that drowned her in the depths of the sea.
It was this woman in front of her who watched from the sidelines, participated all the way, and even pushed her all the way to hell.
She knew that her identity today was a negotiator to fight for the greatest benefits with the greatest rationality.
However, she could not help but blurt out a question.
"Gu Moyan, are you not afraid of coming to find me?"
After all, for the past five years, I have wanted to kill you every day.
"How could that be?" Gu Moyan laughed dryly, "You've had such a big accident, and you'll definitely have a good future. I still want to benefit from you." Gu Ruoyan thought to herself, "Accident? What an accident! Could it be that I fainted and rolled into the sea?""If possible, I also hope that everything is just an accident," Gu Ruoyan sneered.When the elevator reached the 16th floor, Gu Ruoyan took out her key to open the door and let Gu Moyan in."Gu Moyan, you do have a lot of spies." Gu Ruoyan sat down on the sofa and gestured for Gu Moyan to sit across from her. "You can find out where I live in a short period.""On this point, we are just the same." Gu Moyan sat down and crossed her legs. "Sister, guess what I found?"Gu Ruoyan sneered, thinking to herself, "Judging from her tone, she still wants to threaten me?""That's right. As you can see, I am purchasing Gu Group's share
"Your confidentiality is really too good. How can such a big company in the United States not have any news in the country?" He Jingyou couldn't help but sigh, "If I hadn't been with you day and night, I would have wondered if you joined some mysterious organization." "After all, there is a sea between us. If I deliberately hide it, it will be difficult to find it." Gu Ruoyan tightened her grip, thinking that it was fortunate that He Jingyou could not see her current expression. Otherwise, based on how familiar he was with her, he would definitely have noticed something. "Well, you and the two children should rest early. The work of Simon's Psychological Clinic will start tomorrow."The other side answered and hung up.The next day, just as Gu Ruoyan sat down in her therapy office, she heard a knock on the door.Then, an old woman with white hair walked in with a trembling voice. She looked like an old woman in her fifties.
"Business banquet?" Gu Ruoyan's first reaction was that Li Shaojue did not tell the truth."There is no need for him to even tell you the reason for postponing the consultation. I think it might be a cover." "Haha... Ruoyan, you are too sensitive." He Jingyou laughed out loud, thinking that this little woman was very cunning. "It was when he called me that his assistant reminded him of his schedule.""Ah... I see." Gu Ruoyan tilted her head in embarrassment. She was a little embarrassed and said with a little rebuke, "Maybe his assistant said that on purpose. Go and check it out for me. Is there really a business banquet?""How can I find out about this..." He Jingyou was helpless, but he still obediently typed words in the search box. The next second he saw the content, his eyes widened in shock. "Ruoyan, it's true, and you should be interested as well. I'll send you the link.""What?" Gu Ruoyan asked. Then he
Gu Ruoyan didn't go back to buy that blue dress. She didn't try it on. She bought it hastily because she was annoyed with Yang Ru. She went around the store and continued to choose in the mall. Finally, she chose a light purple dress.There was not much time left. She had already gotten her hands on the electronic invitation letter. When Gu Ruoyan returned home and finished dressing up, she changed into the new clothes she had bought. She suddenly realized that she had forgotten to buy a mask.It would definitely be too late to go back and buy it now... Gu Ruoyan's gaze swept across the dressing table and stopped on a scarf in the corner.It was a dark blue scarf with three petals embroidered on it.The three-petaled flower was the pattern that her mother embroidered the most often. She learned from her mother and also embroidered it decently.Later, when her mother was gone, she studied abroad alone. She missed
The moment Li Shaojue saw the scarf with a three-petal flower pattern on the woman's face, his heart trembled fiercely.He had only seen that pattern on the scarf that Gu Moyan had left behind on the first night. From then on, he had always kept that scarf by his side. He did not know why, but he had always been intentionally hiding it from others. He had never even shown it to Gu Moyan.And now, that pattern actually appeared here.He stared into the woman's eyes, wanting to hold her and ask her face to face. However, there were too many people around. Gu Moyan was also standing not far away. It would not be good if he pulled another woman.The man's gaze was as deep as a black hole. Gu Ruoyan was almost sucked in by the man's gaze. She wanted to move her line of sight away, but it was as if she was frozen. She was unable to move.After a long time, she finally came back to her senses and turned around awkwardl
"Actually, I'm not sure, because your clothes and voice are different from before." The Greek girl stuck out her tongue. "But from the way you spoke just now, I felt that it should be you. Moreover, I hope that the person who will cooperate with Dad, in the end, is you. What's more... I speak Greek. Even if you're not the one, no one will understand."She blinked her eyes mischievously and looked at Gu Ruoyan."Dad? Could it be..." Thinking to herself, Gu Ruoyan asked, "Teacher Mosen is your father?""That's right. Hehe, you didn't expect it, right?" The girl shook her little head and felt a little proud. "I told my dad that the CEO of Heartbeating will definitely come this time. He didn't believe me and even made a bet with me. I won this time.""So, Mr. Mosen has long wanted to cooperate with me?" Gu Ruoyan's heart was filled with joy, and excitement was written all over her face."Yes. By the way, my name is
"I believe that you no longer recognize it like this." Gu Ruoyan replied softly, her eyelashes fluttering.In the beginning, she had also been so worried. Psychology was the light that saved her from the pain of losing everything. She was left alone in the United States. The two newly born little kids were waiting for her to take care of them. Her living expenses were so tight that she had not stopped for a while. If she had not learned so much psychological knowledge, where did she get the courage to overcome pain and find a new life?She had been worried that the commercialization would violate her initial heart, but the solution in her heart had never changed. Once there was a conflict between the two, she would give up on commercialization and directly let Heartbeating transform into a charity organization. As for competing with Gu Family, she would find another way."Yes, you have made me look at you in a new light. Whether it is th
"Do you mean that Li Shaojue is also here and might suspect your identity?" Zhan Ruomiao was so angry it felt like smoke was rising from his head. "Gu Ruoyan, I think you are really tired of living in Hai City. At that time, I shouldn't have agreed to let you go. Do you want Li Shaojue to recognize you?""I'm sorry, brother. I don't think I was exposed. It's just that I'm afraid so and it's better to make more preparations."Gu Ruoyan explained in a low voice. She could feel that the man on the other side was trying very hard to suppress his temper. If she did not admit defeat at this time, she really did not know what he would do.Finally, the other party sighed heavily and agreed, "Alright, just you wait."In the venue, Li Shaojue stood in the middle of the hall and ordered a portion of bodyguards to find the whereabouts of the president of Heartbeating and the others to investigate the explosion just now. His aura became
