Lawyer Gao is secretly jealous again

Chapter 349: There is still shock and uncertainty on his face

"Don't ask, there's nothing to say... it is what it is."

Gao Jinghan seemed to have come to terms with it.

Gao Huoling just stared at him and didn't ask any further questions.

Although Ding Jiaxu was in his bedroom, he was lying at the door listening to the sounds outside.

But this damn bedroom door had such good soundproofing, or maybe Gao Jinghan and the others spoke too quietly, so Ding Jiaxu didn't hear a word.

She tried hard to hear clearly, so she pressed her ear against the door.

"what……"

Suddenly, the door opened and Ding Jiaxu was about to fall forward, but fortunately a hand caught her in time.

She looked up and saw it was Gao Huoling.

There was still shock and uncertainty on his face.

"What are you doing?" Gao Huoling helped Ding Jiaxu up and became puzzled.

Ding Jiaxu came back to his senses and smiled embarrassedly.

With this smile, Gao Huoling understood everything.

"If you want to know anything, just ask me directly."

"If I hadn't caught you, were you going to fall flat on your face?"

Gao Huoling rubbed Ding Jiaxu's face.

"It's not good to get such good skin hurt."

"Oh... so you are looking at the face, right? If I become ugly, you will not want me anymore?" Ding Jiaxu pushed Gao Huoling's hand away, turned around and sat on the bed.

"Fool...what are you talking about?"

Gao Huoling smiled and sat down next to her.

Ding Jiaxu glanced at him, but couldn't help asking, "Why did you look for them? Why did you make them so angry and scream so loudly?"

"You...don't you think about the past relationship? Otherwise, people will think I'm just talking nonsense."

"Say I'm a nuisance."

Ding Jiaxu felt a little resentful.

"No... She was just too excited and did something wrong but didn't want to admit it. I was just worried..."

"Huh? Worried?" Ding Jiaxu looked at Gao Huoling with some confusion. He seemed to have something on his mind.

"worry about what?"

"There's a word 'Water' underneath the bottle of medicine. I asked Fang Yu to check it out. He said it was from the underworld, a man called Brother Shui. No one knows his real name. He's in the city, and no one knows what he's doing."

"It's obvious that Gao Jinghan knows about this. How did Ji Shuyi get to know and contact such a person?"

"Are you worried that this will be detrimental to the Gao family?" Ding Jiaxu did not expect that Ji Shuyi, a grown-up lady, would know such a shady person.

"What if... For a family to continue, it depends on whether everyone is at peace and healthy."

"Grandpa wasn't feeling well, so I started to worry. Add to that the matter with my aunt. Although our child won't come back, we're facing it positively, but I always feel like it's not that simple."

Ding Jiaxu was silent. She didn't know how to comfort Gao Huoling. She was just a girl who could draw and she knew nothing else.

At this moment, she suddenly felt so useless.

At this moment, she really wanted to hug him.

Ding Jiaxu put his arms around Gao Huoling.

"It's okay. It'll be fine."

"Don't worry...I'll always be there for you."

"Don't worry, I will protect you. You don't have to worry about these. Just do whatever you like and don't think about other things. During this time... just stay at home and don't come here."

Gao Huoling reached out and fixed Ding Jiaxu's hair. She stood up and said, "Doesn't this make me look like I'm afraid of things? What am I hiding from?"

"It's none of your business. I'm your husband. If I let you get involved in all this, wouldn't it make me look useless?"

"Can……"

"Alright, alright, go to sleep. I'll take you back to the apartment and then to the law firm tomorrow morning. Be good."

Gao Huoling kissed Ding Jiaxu on the forehead again before signaling her to rest.

He was very well-behaved tonight, neither being affectionate nor being restless.

He just held her and slept quietly.

In fact, Ding Jiaxu couldn't sleep, and although she felt that Gao Huoling seemed unable to sleep either, she didn't disturb him.

Ding Jiaxu knew that at this moment, he really needed this peace and quiet.

……

Ding Keyan drove herself to the apartment where she and Weng Zixuan were sharing a loving relationship.

She arrived a little late, and when she got there, Weng Zixuan seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

Seeing her coming, Weng Zixuan's face showed joy.

But Ding Keyan seemed even more indifferent than before.

"You're here... Are you hungry? Do you want to..."

"No, I'm not hungry. Just say what you want to say." Ding Keyan didn't even sit down, obviously not wanting to stay any longer.

Weng Zixuan has also known her temper during this period.

Sometimes good, sometimes bad, sometimes hot and sometimes cold.

He had seen countless women, but somehow he fell into Ding Keyan's hands.

"Then... I'll be frank. I want to talk to you about our relationship. I know you don't want to get married right now. After all, we haven't been dating for long, but I think we can settle down and get engaged first, okay?"

"What?" Ding Keyan burst out laughing as if this was something very funny.

Weng Zixuan was a little confused.

"Yes...I thought so, but I still want to ask for your opinion, so I want to talk to you."

Weng Zixuan spoke very sincerely.

There was no main light in the room, only an ambiguous small colored light was on.

With the help of such lighting, Weng Zixuan could clearly see the sarcasm on Ding Keyan's face.

"Are you kidding me? I came here to break up, but you wanted to get engaged to me. What gives you the right to get engaged to me?" Ding Keyan put down her bag and threw it aside.

She looked coldly at the man in front of her.

She was wearing high heels, and although she couldn't look at Weng Zixuan at eye level, she did not lose in terms of momentum.

"Break up?" Weng Zixuan didn't know what he had done wrong. He actually heard Ding Keyan say...

Say break up.

"Why? You suddenly made such a decision. Weren't we all fine before?"

Weng Zixuan now looks like a wronged big boy.

There is no longer the high spirits that I used to have.

"Why? Why? Hahaha... Are you asking me why? Don't you know it yourself?"

Ding Keyan started to laugh, but suddenly put away that smile and stared at Weng Zixuan coldly.

"I will not be with someone who robs me of my innocence. You are just a villain who takes advantage of others. Do you think I care about you taking responsibility? Do you think I can only do what you want?"

"I can't change what happened in the past. I can only beg for your forgiveness." Weng Zixuan reached out and wanted to hold Ding Keyan's hand. She took two steps back.

"Since there's no way to change it, just accept it... I'm not stupid enough to think that your bet with someone to get close to me is love. In fact, you didn't lose anything. You got what you wanted. You won the bet, so you should be happy..."
