”One year! Three hundred and sixty-five days, how can it be compared to those thousands of days!”
She buried her face in her knees, as if the entire sky was gray. ”Fourth Uncle, I feel so tired, so tired. What I'm more sure of is that before, now, and after, she was there. 365 days … How do I defeat those twenty odd years? ”
Gu Zhongshen did not say anything. He knew that the little miss had some worries and he also knew that there was still something between the two of them. But no matter if it was three years ago or now, at least they were still together.
At least, keep going.
No matter what she said, Gu Zhongshen was absolutely sure that the little girl in front of him, was the person he wanted in his heart right now, the person he wanted to walk with.
”Four years is not a long time to say. Say less... Madam, are you going to mess with the Fourth Uncle because of this? ”
Three in the morning.
She wasn't sleeping, so when she received this news, she hid in a corner, feeling both wronged and pitiful. It was as if he had bullied her … That question.
Lu Qinan shook her head. Her face was still pale white, as she buried her face in her knees like an ostrich.
Late at night, people's thoughts were magnified.
She couldn't help but to think of many things. She thought of how they had met, and of how they had gotten married by coincidence … He thought back to that year, when he had taken good care of her, and the few times she had taken care of him … A sad day.
And that happened tonight.
Clenching his fingers tightly, Lu Qinan's eyes were filled with a cold and astringent feeling. Outside the window, it was pitch black and the only light in the room was a yellow light. However, the man was standing right in front of her with an expressionless face.
”It's not a joke.”
She looked at the man's face and saw that he had a very contrasting look. He was handsome and clean, and every part of his body seemed as if it had been meticulously sculpted, which was so enchanting. ”I just feel tired, I feel …” It's good not to have these things. ”
”So, because of this piece of news, because of a piece of news from sixteen years ago, Madam didn't want the Fourth Uncle anymore?”
Gu Zhongshen's voice was cold, as though his voice was caressing ice and snow, there was no trace of warmth in his voice, he drew closer, his body carrying a cold aura, his pitch black eyes filled with dense emotions, as though he wanted to swallow her whole!
”So in your heart, Fourth Uncle is the one that you can easily give up, right? ”No matter how many times you say it, once there's even the slightest movement, your first thought will be to leave me!”
She gave up on him so easily!
Lu Qinan lowered his eyes, his eyes completely red.
She only shook her head, unable to speak.
The man was flustered and agitated. He understood what was going on just by looking at her reaction. Where would she be willing to leave if she liked him? She repeatedly said that she wanted to leave him without even the slightest hesitation!
Gu Zhongshen pursed his lips, the line of his lower jaw became a straight line and his entire body tensed up, as if he was an excited beast.
There was no emotion on his cold face as he suddenly grabbed her.
”Wasn't Fourth Uncle bullying you? Didn't you say it's a humiliation!? ”
”A little girl who hasn't been taught a lesson before, you know what bullying is at such a young age!”
He seized the man.
Lu Qinan suddenly started to panic. The man's current expression was extremely gloomy, there was not even a hint of warmth in his eyes, as if he was really going to swallow her whole.
She was seized passively and fell face down on the man's lap, her body in only a thin nightgown touching his.
Suddenly, her skirt was lifted …
”Pa!” An extremely heavy force hit her butt.
Lu Qinan froze, and after two seconds, she suddenly realised that she had lost control of her tears due to the pain, and fell onto the ground with a ”pa da” sound.
”Does it hurt?”
The man's hoarse voice sounded by her ear. Deep into the night, Lu Qinan wasn't even able to tell if this was a dream or reality, but the sharp pain on her butt made her abnormally clear-headed.
Gu Zhongshen scoffed, and then struck down with his palm.
”Speak, speak properly to Fourth Uncle. If you take everything back, we won't beat you.”
She shook her head, bit her lip, and squeezed her fingers together.
The pain struck and Lu Qinan almost wanted to shout out, but he forced her to do so and she had to endure it with all her might.
”Stubborn? What's the use of being stubborn here? He was trying to coax her while she was still young, so it didn't matter if she had a little temper … But you're also a mother now, don't think too much, just leave me? ”
”I am not allowed to touch it? When I was at the hotel, I was begging you to do whatever you wanted, hmm? ”
knew that he was using Innate Qi.
Fourth Uncle had never been a talkative person, and he did not like to go through old scores, but now, he was going through their past bit by bit.
She used to... She had been infatuated with him.
He had fought excessively. He knew how much effort he had put in and how much pain he had felt.
But the little girl had to endure it. Even though her eyes were filled with tears from the pain, she refused to make the slightest sound.
Even if they knew … If she begged for mercy, he would be merciful.
The remaining hope in Gu Zhongshen's heart was extinguished completely. His face turned deep and cold, he retracted his strength, and words came out one by one.
”When I was getting married, did I tell you that I, Gu Si, will only marry one woman in my life?
