463 The Secret About the Past 81 (1/2)
After hanging up the call, An Xiaoning was about to return into the room when she vaguely heard some quarreling.
Listening to it more carefully, she confirmed that it was indeed Gu Beicheng and Lin Mingxi arguing.
However, she could not make out the reason for their argument.
Lying down on the bed, An Xiaoning felt her head spinning terribly.
Upon closing her eyes, she gradually fell into a deep sleep.
When she opened her eyes again, the sky was already bright. Taking a look at the time, she saw it was already eight o'clock.
Why didn't her assistant wake her?
After taking a rinse and putting on some light makeup, she opened her door to see her assistant and bodyguard before her. Seeing that she was out, her assistant greeted her, ”Young Madam.”
”Why didn't you wake me?”
”I wanted to, but Mr. Gu said you drank a lot last night and that we should let you sleep a little longer. You're heading to the cafeteria to eat now, right?”
”Mmm.”
They arrived at the second-floor cafeteria.
An Xiaoning carried a tray on which she'd placed her breakfast while her assistant took a glass of fruit juice for her, placing it at the seat beside Gu Beicheng. She leisurely walked over with her tray of breakfast, slowing sitting down.
”Did you drink that bowl of hangover soup yesterday?” Gu Beicheng asked.
”Yes.” Noticing that both he and Lin Mingxi were scowling, An Xiaoning asked, ”What's wrong with you both? You don't look happy seeing each other.”
Gu Beicheng twitched his lips and answered simply, ”Nothing.”
Lin Mingxi looked like she wanted to say something but did not. She merely kept her head low and ate, not uttering a word.
An Xiaoning appeared tired as she ate her breakfast slowly, unconsciously turning to look at Lin Mingxi a few times. She somehow felt that she had a lot to say but was keeping everything inside.
Gu Beicheng sat there keeping silent as well, and he did not look like he was in a good mood either.
With no appetite for breakfast, An Xiaoning ate only a little and wiped her mouth. Just as she was about to get up, Lin Mingxi stopped her. ”Xiaoning.” Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
”What's wrong?”
”Do you know that Beicheng still loves you now?” Once these words came out of Lin Mingxi's mouth, Gu Beicheng's face changed. He was evidently furious.
An Xiaoning thought of their argument last night and suddenly understood that she was the cause of it.
”You're overthinking.” An Xiaoning looked at her seriously. ”You're his wife now. Since he's willing to marry you, it means that he wants to lead a new life. You should give him time and not grab onto him so tightly. I think you've really misunderstood. Beicheng and I are forever like family. Our relationship will never become anything more than that. Both of you are mature adults, not kids. You should settle your issues more rationally. Starting a cold war or arguing can never solve anything.”
