Chapter 40: Gu Chi's Friend

Su Keqin was taken aback, she strained to raise her head and saw Gu Chi standing before her, with Yang Zuo standing beside him holding an umbrella.The torrential rain blurred his handsome features, an...The next morning, Su Kexin and Gu Chi ate breakfast in the restaurant. Gu Chi looked at her and suddenly asked, "How did you sleep last night" "It was pretty good..." 。Su Ke Xin raised her head, "How do you ask that"

"Are you afraid I'm by your side, you won't sleep well" 。Gu Zhi drank a sip of coffee, his expression indifferent. “If necessary, I can move to the guest room.” 。Su Keqin was taken aback for a moment before she realized that Gu Chi was referring to what happened that night. Her face flushed instantly, and she said, "We're already husband and wife, it's only natural that we live together." 。Gu Chi looked at Su Ke Xin, “That night, didn’t you blame me” He still remembered the look of fear on her face that night when he approached her, that resistance made him very uncomfortable. 。Su Kexin looked at Gu Chi with some embarrassment, "Don't blame you, your actions are understandable" 。"It's understandable" Gu Chi suddenly raised an eyebrow, "What reason" Su Ke Xin didn't expect Gu Chi to ask this question, she became even more embarrassed, but under Gu Chi's gaze, she still mustered up the courage and said, "Because that night, I made you lose face, and said things about Gu Yihan... it's normal for you to be angry. After all, I am your wife" 。Gu Zhi's eyebrows arched even higher. 。Although Su Ke Xin's words were vague, he still understood them. 。Su Ke Xin thought, was it because of possessiveness that he did that to her that night Gu Chi suddenly couldn't help but chuckle. 。"What's so funny Did I say something wrong" Su Kexin thought she had said something amiss and asked awkwardly. 。Gu Chi looked at Su Ke Xin, thoughtfully. 。He was never one to deny his feelings, whether it was his previous affection for Su Ke Xin or the jealousy he felt upon learning of Gu Yihan's affair. It made him realize something— He seemed to genuinely care for this wife he had impulsively married. 。For so many years, he thought he had long since stopped feeling for anyone, but unexpectedly, this person still appeared. 。Luckily, she was her own wife. 。Unfortunately, she seemed utterly oblivious. 。He should just state his intentions directly and take this little woman. 。Should I gradually win her heart

Gu Chi smiled wryly inside. 。It had been so long since he had truly cared for a woman. At this moment, he felt that Su Kexin was more difficult to deal with than millions or even billions of dollars worth of business. 。Still take it slow. 。Gu Chi looked at Su Ke Xin, a faint smile curving his lips, "Just think that way then." 。"

Su Ke Xin couldn't understand the meaning behind Gu Chi's words, she could only nod dumbly.

" 。Gu Zhi looked at her dumbfounded appearance, the corner of his mouth twitched again, and he whispered: "Tomorrow is Saturday, are you free One of my friends is coming to my house for dinner" 。"Friend" Su Keixin was taken aback. 。"Well, 。“Gu Zhi nodded, “How come family can’t see you, but friends can” Su Ke Xin gave an embarrassed smile, “Don’t tease me” 。I am free tomorrow. 。"The next day, Su Kexin and Zhang Ma were busy in the kitchen all morning. At noon, the guests finally arrived. " 。"Oh, Gu Chi, I must say, your place seems so much more lively now that you have a wife!" 。Even before the person arrived, his voice could be heard from afar, boisterous and arrogant. 。Su Ke Xin hurried to the living room and saw a man in a pink shirt walking in. 。This man is about the same age as Su Kexin, and he's also very handsome. But compared to Gu Chi's steady and introverted nature, this man is undoubtedly flamboyant. 。Hey, sister-in-law 。“When that man saw Su Ke Xin, he quickly walked over and glared at Gu Chi who was sitting in a wheelchair beside her, “Gu Chi, you little rascal, you didn’t even tell me your sister-in-law is so beautiful.” 。Gu Chi's expression was indifferent, he didn't pay any attention to his words at all, only calmly opening his mouth: "This is Su Ke Xin" 。This is Ji Xiangru. 。"

Qi Xiangru

Out of a journalist's instinct, she felt that the name was familiar. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly realized, "Ah! Qi Xiangru! The young master of the Ji family"

There are three prominent families in S City... " 。The Gu family came first, with the largest business. 。Next, there is the Qi family, which has been particularly influential in the entertainment industry, and the Cheng family, which has gradually declined in recent years. 。And Ji Xiangru is the only son of the Ji family and heir. 。 "Hello" 。"Su Ke Xin was a little nervous, but she still smiled politely. “My name is Su Ke Xin" 。"It's been a pleasure to meet you." 。Ji Xiangru had a pair of captivating peach blossom eyes. He held Su Kexin's hand and, with a gentlemanly air, wanted to bring it to his lips for a kiss. 。But at this moment, Gu Chi suddenly raised his hand and took Su Ke Xin's hand. 。Don't touch 。Gu Chi's expressionless face emphasized the two words: " 。Ji Xiangru was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up involuntarily. 。Oh my, Gu Chi is actually eating vinegar That's really interesting. 。Ji Xiangru smiled, suddenly feeling interested. He leaned closer to Su Kexin and said mysteriously, "Sister-in-law, let me tell you, Gu Chi is just clueless, he doesn't understand..." 。If you're ever bored or lonely, come find me. I'm way more interesting than him. 。Su Keqin shivered, and awkwardly smiled: "Young Master Ji, you really love to joke around" 。Gu Chi's entire face was now black with anger. He grabbed Su Ke Xin's hand and walked toward the restaurant. 。After Zhang Ma and Wang Shu had prepared the meal, they went back home because there was something going on at home. There were only Su Keqin, Gu Chi, and Ji Xiangru left in the villa. 。Ji Xiangru casually crossed his legs, looking nonchalant and saying, "Hey, where's the booze" 。Gu Zhi, go and get the wine. 。"Oh my, there's no one else here. Why are you still sitting in that wheelchair"Su Ke Xin was taken aback and saw Gu Chi indeed stand up from the wheelchair, ladling a bowl of soup and handing it to Su Ke Xin, saying softly, "Drink your soup." 。Then he turned and walked toward the wine cellar. 。Su Ke Xin only then understood, this Ji Xiangru and Gu Chi's relationship was truly good. Gu Chi even told him about his injured legs being healed. 。Ji Xiangru watched Gu Chi leave before she retracted the playful smile from her lips, turning her head to look at Su Ke Xin. 。"Sister-in-law, thank you " 。“Thank me for what” Su Ke Xin felt a little uncomfortable with his suddenly serious attitude. “Thank you for marrying Gu Chi.” 。"Ji Xiangru leaned against the chair, grinning ear to ear, this time genuinely. "You're the second person to know Gu Chi's leg truth, proving he really trusts you." 。Su Kexin thought of Gu Chi suddenly standing up that night, her face slightly flushed, but she still smiled and said, "Between husband and wife, we should naturally trust each other. " 。" Ji Xiangru looked at the woman in front of him, his eyes flickering for a moment, then he spoke: "Sister-in-law, did Gu Chi tell you why he pretended to be disabled" "stone thrown by one's own hand."You! Hmph, Xu Zui Ning you are so narcissistic!" Her face was twisted with anger, "I admit you're not bad looking, but compared to me you are..."Zhu Yunxin opened her m...
